can some one enlighten me as to why the Aussie is picking up so many votes with out a concerted effort?

is this the mafia trying to build influence? or is there a semi-solid reason we should be changing our votes over Aussie?

You still worry me. Just the way you stated it earlier. You're worried about how much of a threat Aussie is, and reference a game where he was town? Him being a threat as town, is reason enough to let him live.

Arrows. I say it every game when I worry you.

I rather worry you all game and be in the spotlight and prove my worth than go and be town and lay low, then suddenly get targeted by not talking much, and being painted up as scum.

I'd like to join a bandwagon or at least comment on one, but I have too many choices at the moment... :rolleyes:

I tend to go for bandwagons in big games and avoid them in small games, and this game is "big" in my mind.

However, the massive number of directions everyone is going in makes getting any info from such a lynch kind of impossible!

Star Wars is SOOO lame, and I'll never watch it! I don't care how good it might be, because stuff in space is only for losers and nerds. (A girl actually once said that back in High School... no where near as hot as she thought she was).

And, ugh, I was the wife of Man-Bat in Gotham Mafia? It's like, DUH, I deserve a more important role than that!

But atleast before that I was Anton Chigurh (xoxo! OMG what a HOTTIE!) in Hollywood Horror, only to have that mean guy Sylar kill me. And idk if I've told you this, but imo mean people suck.

Oh yeah, Nick's "gut feeling" :rolleyes:

Give me a break. The only thing lamer than that is people voting on his "gut feeling" before Aussie even made a post.

Now, I dont know Aussie from Joe....

But in Comradebot wants to lynch Arrows...then Im for that.

After all, he is better scum than Aussie.

And he so totally lied about the Penguin thing.

ok, back to the noob questions,

If I were mafia wouldn't the whole point of day 1 be two fold,

1) don't let the town lynch a mafia member
2) if at all possible convince the townies 'you have a gut feeling' and get them to lynch one of their own?

at this point you have two groups
a fully informed minority and an ignorant majority.

your goal is to keep the majority from exercising their power, and coerce a few of them into doing something stupid with out getting caught.

the town not getting together any lynching some one, seems like a waste of a day. even if we are wrong the voting patterns should reveal something.

or maybe as the noob I am way off base, and a fellow townie should set me straight.

You're right about the Mafia being an informed minority, and the town being on whole an uninformed majority.

Of course, there's a chance of a mafia member that the mafia doesn't know about, or 2 or 3 townies that could talk to each other.

The way it usually boils down here is, we talk and talk until it winds up being a no lynch on day one.

Certain players like myself, don't like the concept of a no lynch on day one, and will always go for a lynch. I maintain this attitude ALWAYS. Town or scum, being a cop or a serial killer. No matter what. We have a large enough number of people to afford a mislynch.

Risk = Reward.

And I see how you're painting me as Mafia by saying my gut feeling is just a way to lynch town. Nope. I have no idea if Aussie is town or scum. My gut just tells me he's the one I'm going for on day one, instead of flopping my vote around to everyone else. Machine is also appearing quite scummy to me. But he seems to be encouraging people to vote him, so my vote stays still on Aussie.

TBH I dunno why people have a problem with your "gut". Most any reason is good for a day one wagon. I first voted on Aussie because
1) it seemed to have the most momentum
2) looked as though a couple of people were trying to cover for him.

I switched to Arrows because I think his Aussie argument amounts to this

(not my opinion but this is how I read it) Aussie is a bad scum player and will self destruct eventually...

ok

Thats nice, if true, but if he's scum there is no reason for us to wait before lynching him and if Aussie's town, if he's such a bad player, shouldn't we consider getting rid of him early?

If you are looking at voting patterns then remember to keep some detailed notes about them and everything else that seems like it might be important at some point. In my early games I kept detailed notes on everyone so that I could look back at my own thoughts aswell as their actions and it really helped me to pick out what was going on and where.

These days I think I'm better at recognising any tell tale signs of scumminess among the populace and try to trust my own gut instinct more rather than relying on notes. I just found they took up way too much time to organise with the amount of info I was jotting down but experience of playing mafia will help massively. I've still got some notes but only for key info rather than the massive amount of speculation that goes on in these games... trying to keep up with DJ, Arrows and Anti speculating a million and one different things just turns out to be a nightmare in the long run. :)

I revealed one of the masons and a lover so far, and I think another fairly crucial role. I am on fire over there :D

Did you get to choose who, or...was it random..or what?

I get to choose, it would be horrendously over-powered in the hands of someone that was really into the game. As it is though, I zone out from all the talk of anime and then pick out random people that I want to reveal :p

Squeaky clean like a soap salesman?

Nooo... though I do like the mention of soap. But I'm not selling anything.

Thing is, if I'm town you're making a huge mistake, and if I'm scum you're making an excellent move. You have no way of knowing which I am except for the way I represent myself in THIS game.

I find it odd that you, of all people, were so willing to simply throw down your vote on me, simply because you like it better. What do you expect to find out from me that could possibly help the town on day one? Me claiming anything more than I already have would do nothing but help the scum.

Care to explain yourself?

Chill out new dude,

reality is that it's unlikely that anyone is going to get lynched today. Many of the votes are been thrown out in fun because most people at this point don't know much.

With 21 required to vote, no one is is threat of being lynched.

Things aren't usually so literally obvious in mafia...

I wouldn't really tell him to chill out. I'm happy to see that one of the new people is using their brains already, and capable of thinking for themselves. That gives me hope for the future of this game here.

I find it kinda scummy that some people were just, oh so willing, to throw a vote on me for no real reason except for the fact that I'm a good liar. Yet, at the same time, these people fail to mention all the times me being a liar has gotten the town handed a couple of things they wouldn't have had otherwise.

I lie more as a townie, than I do as scum. Everyone knows that. I'm a pathalogical liar, and I can't control it. Sometimes it works to the advantage of the side I'm on, and sometimes it doesn't.

Am I lying this time? Do I really have to have the most posts? Do I even get anything if I get them? Find out next week!

TBH I dunno why people have a problem with your "gut". Most any reason is good for a day one wagon. I first voted on Aussie because
1) it seemed to have the most momentum
2) looked as though a couple of people were trying to cover for him.

I switched to Arrows because I think his Aussie argument amounts to this

(not my opinion but this is how I read it) Aussie is a bad scum player and will self destruct eventually...

ok

Thats nice, if true, but if he's scum there is no reason for us to wait before lynching him and if Aussie's town, if he's such a bad player, shouldn't we consider getting rid of him early?

I have a LOT more respect for Aussie than I let on to. As town, I feel like he's a solid addition. I'd love to be in a mason group with the guy someday to really see how his mind works. If he's town, I want him around.

I'm not willing to risk a solid townie, because someone's gut tells them he's scum. Aussie's never avoided a major fubar when scum. It's only a matter of time. If someone finds out he's non-town via investigation or whatever, then we lynch him. Until then, why would we throw away someone?

That'd be like lynching DJ, Taker, Banger, Outlaw, Derek, Me, Shape, Anti, the list goes on, and on, and on. It'd be like lynching one of us day one, because we've been good scum. Surely we're far more of a threat than the guy responsible for "The Aussie Expirement" and "The Aussie FUBAR" as scum.

OH, wait. There are already people trying to lynch me for being scum in the past. Logic? Meet window. Now, leave?

I do remember that you tried to kill me or another guy on the night that four people were frozen.

Nope, I targeted Taker to kill, you targeted me, for either an investigation or kill. And we, The Gotham Mafia, planned that second freezing so that the town would have to waste a day actually lynching me.

By then it was pretty well obvious I was Scarecrow, due to the missing gasings the night Freeze first froze me and the the night Bigjosh stole my ability.




which was? *shrug* They lynched me eventually, I wasn't just going to give up. And I'm not being petty, I thought midnight was hinting at something somehow someway :o

/nod




I still don't understand why we should get behind your gut feeling? does your gut have some kind of prediction power? or is it predisposed toward indigestion when people who's name begin with an A are in the game?

does your gut have a track record I should be aware of?


Honestly, a "gut feeling" is usually more than we have on day 1. What I find more telling is that when a few votes dropped on Aussie, his only response was to deflect everything on to the people voting for him.

Hell, he could have rightfully argued that having a "gut feeling" that someone is scum before they have even posted on day 1, is pretty ridiculous. But instead he tried to deflect attention onto myself, Shape, and MNN because we were scum in the last game?

Anyway, I didn't really think a Aussie bandwagon would go anywhere, but based off his response to a few votes, he looks scummier than anyone else so far this phase to me. /shrug

It's not like it's anywhere near a lynch or the deadline though. Surely it's better to pressure someone who IF scum is MORE likely to slip and give us a successful lynch, than simply sit around waiting for it to happen of its own accord?

Your argument about AUssie, you amend to say he's a keeper when town aligned.
Great.
When exactly, did you learn he was town aligned.. I mean, to the degree you spoke up for him? To me, you arent one to speak up for people unless you know something.

I'm not taking up for Aussie, actually. I just don't want to lynch the guy for no good reason. I'm a kind hearted soul deep down, and I very rarely like lynching anyone without good reason.

The rare exception to that being.....TJ. I'd vote for him day 1, every game, ever. If I had an auto lynch, I'd waste it on him day 1. If I had a night kill, I'd kill him night 1, as has been proven. If I had a day kill he'd be gone day 1. Heck, I even told you guys if I wound up on the same team as him in Marvel I was throwing him under the bus.

Outside of those rare people that just piss me off though? I don't want anyone to be out of the game, day one, without getting to enjoy themselves, just because someone's gut doesn't like them. I'd be pissed if everyone decided to lynch me just because of a gut feeling and I had to sit around waiting for the next game. So would you.

After reading through Canadian Bacon (which was best with John Candy) and apparently everyones alignment being a teenager girl...I can't draw any conclusions about who is scum, but it is day one, and normally that's just a guess and check system anyways, at least in the games I've played elsewhere before. I do love how active this is though, better chance for the bad guys to slip up, even though you guys all are pretty experienced.

So, because someone else wants to lynch me, you're all for it? Yep, I'm better scum than Aussie. Aussie's better town than I am. Makes us about even. Yep, I lied about the Penguin thing, same way IER lied about the Vince McMahon thing and got away with it for a bit.(IER, you really are like..my exact counter in these games:()

Thing is, if I'm town you're making a huge mistake, and if I'm scum you're making an excellent move. You have no way of knowing which I am except for the way I represent myself in THIS game.

Nor does Comrade, so following him blindly? Might not be the best of ideas.

Im not "all for it" just because someone else wants to lynch you. Dont flatter Comradebot like that.

But, I do believe Nick has the right approach for the first day phase. However, this time, his application of it, frankly sucks. If the town is going to pick from the list of 40 names and choose one to string up without any real gathered evidence, then it needs to weigh that decision on some other potential. You play better scum than Aussie, I dont think that is in doubt to anyone. If we are going to gamble on the life of a townie, then we MUST go for the biggest potential reward. It would be foolish to settle for anything less.

Comrade, what do you know about me?

Secretive?

CVerse 2, I outted myself quick. I even celebrated the deaths of two townies openly in the thread because it made me entirely unkillable at night. I was town.

DotT1, I outted myself as Steamboat quick.(Day..2?) I also became the voice of a mason group because I have a big ego and like to be the center of attention. That and I was more willing to let myself die than Wallbanger, who I think's a far more valuable player than I am.

Star Wars, I was the voice behind the Jedi Council by the end of day one. I was obviously town.

I even outted myself as THE PENGUIN. I am FAR from a secretive person.

I am NEVER entirely lying, but I'm rarely ever telling the whole truth. You think I'm scum because I'm talking more than usual? If you could see my role PM, you'd know exactly why I'm talking so much. Heck, I'm taking close to 10 breaks a day at work just so I can keep my post count up.

OMG, right? If we lynch someone today based on that risk=reward stuff, we totally need to string up whoever might be the biggest threat as being a mean person (who suck).

The Aussie may not be BAD at being scum (I wouldn't know, personally), but he's far from the worst. Part of the reason also for going for Arrows is because even IF he's town he'll be unlikely to give information when pushed, leading to him being believed to be scum anyone, not to mention he is totally creepy when he's evil (and in general).

Plus, no one should have to talk more than anyone else, that just doesn't make sense. What if you have a really, REALLY busy day at the spa, and you just can't find the time to post? You'll get in trouble for real life preventing you from being at the computer 24/7 like some kind of virgin? Puh-leeze!

I doubt it. You lie all the time, so I don't think one time is outweighed by another.

That's absolutely hilarious.

I'm a far better liar than you think I am, little one. I claimed Al Pacino, and The Penguin, and didn't get lynched either time.

I actually do lie more when I'm town. Look back at DotT 1, where I claimed I could watch, investigate, protect, be bulletproof, and do like..SIX other things.

I could do...1.

The lies did keep Banger alive though.

By the way, I have yet to lie in this game.

Or was that a lie?

I'm not a fan of long day ones either, especially with this many players. Everything is just a guessing game and gut feelings, until we get through a night phase we won't have any info to look at.

That being said, I'm against a complete no lynch day one. This is my first game here so I don't know peoples playing styles and who is better than who, but I wouldn't be opposed to singling out a potentially strong scum player and going with it opposed to just sitting here for days not doing anything.

Also, Arrows is all too often a condecending ass. Honestly, I don't trust his apparent role at all, and the threat of him being scum is too great.

But if nothing else, it'd be nice to play a game without him calling anyone else "little one".

And FOR THE RECORD, the ONLY reason you didn't get lynched while being The Penguin is because there were other scum present who posed a far greater threat than you! Freeze was destroying our ability to lynch, The Joker could kill multiple people, and then at the end we found out Harley might be able to kill bulletproof people! And when your time to step up and get lynched came, what happened? You asked djthefunkchris to spare your life.

So don't come in here spouting BS about how you played The Penguin to perfection, because you didn't. You lucked out by being less of threat than allllll the other scum left, and as a result you can now claim you weren't lynched based on the technicallity of you surrendering.

Don't want to be sticking my neck out for Arrows, because I don't know his role and can't positively say he's town aligned. But I will say, you must not have played with Arrows much, because a Townie Arrows does not hold back information that could help the town from what I've seen.

As for his merits; as Town, he's definitely shown capable of leading the town to a win. As Scum, he's definitely dangerous enough to lead scum to a win.

No, I haven't played with Arrows much... this is only my fourth game, and he only played in the last one, so I've been going with how I felt he played last game.

But, like, look at it like this: If he's capable of outting himself early and still help lead the town to victory, wouldn't that be better than ignoring him and hoping he's not scum and leading them to victory?

And, personally, even if he SO got killed over it, I think there's more than enough people who've emerged who are capable of leading the town as well, assuming that he is. Risk=reward. Losing a solid townie would be far less disastrous that potentially letting a gamebreaking bad guy live.

Because it isn't always smart to out yourself so early, especially if you have a powerful role. That screams for the scum to get you, and wastes all the protection power to be used on the one player. Which in turn the scum will realize and go for other targets who would normally be protected.

And yes, Risk = Reward.

But only calculated risk or acceptable risk.

Not risk for the sake of risk.

Example. If an investigation night 1 shows someone as scum.

We lynch. They wind up as town. That's a calculated risk because we weren't going to know if they were conned, or an insane cop or what.

If someone were to propose a lynch on someone "confirmed" as town, due to an incredibly offchance of them being the don or reverse conned? That's a risk for the sake of risk, and goes out of the comfort zone of acceptability.

See what you did Midnight. Risk=Reward has caught on, and now it's the cliche of choice around here.

:p

Risk=Reward can also be looked at like this Comrade.


Risk: Keeping Arrows around even though he's dangerous when scum. Reward: A townie Arrows can help lead the town to a win.

or

Risk: lynching Arrows even though he can be a powerful townie.
Reward: getting lucky and lynching dangerous scum.


But here is the deal, there is absolutely nothing to indicate that by lynching Arrows we'd get the reward of lynching powerful scum. And as for ignoring Arrows? I don't see that happening at all. I'm pretty sure in a game this size, that there are watchers, trackers, investigators, role blockers etc etc. I'm sure at least one of them will have their eye on him. It's what happens when you have a reputation of being a good player; you're going to get investigated somehow sooner rather than later.

So, to recap, I'm against lynching someone just because they have played well as scum in the past, give me a more solid reason and I'll be for it though.

Hey, Risk = Reward is my motto, it's how I play. Go big or don't go at all. I mean, I'm an impact player.

And what you said Arrows is exactly how I feel about him. If he's scum. He's scum and we'll find him. If he's town? We have a powerful ally to help us.

I have the utmost respect for him as a player, even if he is feeling weary about me and my persecution of Aussie.

Im not "all for it" just because someone else wants to lynch you. Dont flatter Comradebot like that.

But, I do believe Nick has the right approach for the first day phase. However, this time, his application of it, frankly sucks. If the town is going to pick from the list of 40 names and choose one to string up without any real gathered evidence, then it needs to weigh that decision on some other potential. You play better scum than Aussie, I dont think that is in doubt to anyone. If we are going to gamble on the life of a townie, then we MUST go for the biggest potential reward. It would be foolish to settle for anything less.

Someone should hang today. We establish a voting record, and save all the investigative types some leg work tonight.

I fail to see an arguement for why we shouldnt both accomplish that and try try to nail a major scummie like yourself.

A MAJOR SCUMMY?

ANYONE HERE!

Name one time I ACTUALLY won a game, as scum, that I was alive in?

I didn't win the game I claimed Al Pacino in, though I was declared a winner. I didn't meet my win conditions that were later revoked.

Isn't that what I did, assess the risk? Yeah, it's a day 1 gamble. What are the odds of Arrows being scum compared to Arrows being a very critical member of the town?

And if Arrows is a critical member of the town, maybe he shouldn't draw attention to himself by being so abrasive. I understand that IF he actually has to post more than anyone else, that he's going to draw attention to himself and there's nothing that can be done about that. But that doesn't mean he can't control what he posts. If he's a critical townie, then maybe he shouldn't be talking down to people and flaunting his ability to claim scum and survive along with his other accomplishments.

Just my thoughts on it, and I still think he's a far better choice than your "gut feeling" on The Aussie.

We still have over 24 hours to decide on a lynch target.

No need to rush a No Lynch.

If a no lynch were to happen, I rather it happen due to the time limit of the day phase.

Not a vote.

Due to activity on the thread and the complaints of many ... some ... Derek, I have started to consider shorting day 1 to 48 hours. Any questions or comments should be PM'd to Astil.

Also, play nice.

Hooray!! The sooner we can get on with the exciting part of the game the better. No-one really wants me to try and lead the town to a successful no lynch, no matter how many games I try it in. :D

if he drops to 48 hours, then about 18 hour remain,that aside.

Total votes represent barley enough to lynch, and most of those have declared they want their vote to be random.

I maybe wrong, but if i were mafia i would not be pushing a fellow member under the bus on day 1, so there clearly are not enough townies active to perform a lynching. (even assuming a 2-1 ratio)

so if the townies aren't organized and the only one the mafia is going to throw under the bus is another townie, then the townies and mafia might as well agree to disagree, vote no lynch and move on with death.

the only person who wants to be voted for, machinesxe. has a death wish which i must assume is part of his character. and by my guess he gets gains some how by getting us to vote for him. or he is a master mind and his strategy is to make himself so annoying we won't vote for him on prinicpal.

Well, the fact that Aussie appeared whilst votes were on him, and he didn't even notice is worth checking out, and pressing for info. A vote for a no lynch is a vote for ignorance Mistaken.

Vote: Treton

He beat me at TCW's last event! Kill'm, kill'm!

Well, if you took the win when you had it, you would of won, but you just had to hurt me some more hah.

I was going to randomly vote someone, because I believe everyone should atleast get one random vote against them, but since you all want to be serious I guess I won't.:(

I'm not too crazy about the original reasoning behind this bandwagon, but I'm even less crazy about Aussie's response to it, so might as well add to the pressure a bit.

Vote: The Aussie

I will cede your point if you can actually orchestrate a lynching or something approaching one.

But if no one gets Lynched, then we may well have wasted 18 hours, we could simply have used to move on.

And if you go to vote for a No Lynch right now, that means you are essentially forfeiting the want to learn anything.

My proposal for a lynch is gaining momentum.

When Aussie was here before. He ignored any votes on him and went on his merry way.

You can't just think it'll all be a waste mistaken.

And I'll go ahead and echo the sentiments of MNN here that voting for a no lynch with time left in the opening day phase is a waste.

and what should he have done?

come in proclaimed how your 'gut feeling' is wrong, and how this is a witch hunt, with no merit? no, no really I am Lakeside.....

If he knows you can't get 21 votes, why bother giving you any more information than you already have....none.

Because it isn't always smart to out yourself so early, especially if you have a powerful role. That screams for the scum to get you, and wastes all the protection power to be used on the one player. Which in turn the scum will realize and go for other targets who would normally be protected.

And yes, Risk = Reward.

But only calculated risk or acceptable risk.

Not risk for the sake of risk.

Example. If an investigation night 1 shows someone as scum.

We lynch. They wind up as town. That's a calculated risk because we weren't going to know if they were conned, or an insane cop or what.

If someone were to propose a lynch on someone "confirmed" as town, due to an incredibly offchance of them being the don or reverse conned? That's a risk for the sake of risk, and goes out of the comfort zone of acceptability.


Then we should still lynch him.

As you have pointed out, a few times now, Arrows is such an amazing town player that if he is town, scum are sure to night kill him pretty soon before he leads us all to victory. Unless we waste protection on him.

Looks like a push me.

But good job pointing that out to them.

And there is no way you can be making a truly calculated risk on Aussie. He is a competent enough town player that if he is holding one of the key town roles, he'll succeed with it. You just dont have all the facts to make that call.

What we do know, is our tradeoff in killing Arrows is about balanced between good scum player and good town player. Whereas its lopsided for Aussie, against our favor.

Risk a good town for maybe killing a good scum?

Or risk a pretty good townie for killing a piss poor scum.

Such a hard call. :rolleyes:

Don't listen to him mistaken, midnight is an evil scum overlord... just like I once was! I got better though... in the sense of not being evil now, rather than getting better at being scum... :cool:

What I'm trying to say, is stick to your guns if that's what you want to do. Don't be swayed into thinking one way because people want you to go that way. I acknowledge that me saying that is a viewpoint I'm trying to persuade you towards... but don't just go with the flow unless you really think it's the right thing to do. You'll play a better game if you go with your own instincts rather than listening to everyone else, at least that's what I found in my first game. Nailed scum first night, couldn't persuade anyone to lynch him so I used my one shot kill to take him out. Hi Crychon! :)

If the Aussie lynch builds above 12 votes while I'm still awake then I'll consider adding my vote to the pressure. Otherwise I'm just going to leave it where it is for now since that's the results we're most likely to reach and I really want to get into the meat of this game rather than watch us all stew.

Mmm.... meat stew... *drools*

nZane you get to 10 and I will sign on as number 11, my prediction still stands though, the only person who can be lynched with the current number of participants is a townie.

(if those who have not voted yet show up, this will not necessarily hold true)
