Allee:
I think the better question is why she had a gun...
Woah hey what? I'm not sure if you're trying to say you investigated me and found a gun, or if this is some hypothetical roleplay stuff or what, but last I checked, I was a normal townie. So either way I'm getting pretty suspicious of you.
These to me indicate worry. There is no way he could have investigated you. You then go to say you are a normal townie with the last I checked part as if for emphasis. This seems to me like he struck a nerve and you exploded. This make it seem very much like you are scum.

I was pointing at MNiI not Shamrock, and again, I reacted that way not out of fear, but because I found it very suspicious that he would accuse me of having a gun or whatever he meant by that "joke," that, by the way, had no real context, either.
He was making a play on the words, shot in the foot for the gun. He had absolutely nothing to go on apart from your favourite colour and a question. Where in that could he draw you being scum or even try to pull off an accusation. Don't say your lack of posts, Nerjin has less than 1, which is to say none.

Immaterial:
Next time, make your jokes are clearly noted as such either by smilies or [joke]

No real context? What are you talking about?
AlleeCat:
Why did you feel you shot yourself in the foot? Something to hide?

I was expanding on Comrade Shamrock's joke. (This was a joke, right?)
This sounds like OMGUS behavior, Alleecat.

Noted.

Immaterial:
Mine was not a joke. I was asking a serious question. I was picking at her choice of words. Shooting herself in the foot was the phrase which made me suspicious of her. It implied a lot of worry for only missing a day when Nerjin an ICs has not been active. I FOS'ed her which should've made it apparent I was serious.

Comrade Shamrock, you seem to also be overreacting - it's fairly important to post at least once a day if possible. "Shooting myself in the foot" means impairing yourself in some way, which not posting definitely does. What is it about this that makes you suspicious?

She was worried about not posting, she made a big deal about it. She had the same number of posts as Silthuri and more than Nerjin, who are the experienced players. I asked 2 questions. Immaterial made a joke and Allee overreacted to it. It made me very suspicious, so I moved from FOS to a vote.

She did not make a big deal, it was just a small note. You made it into a big deal. Also, why do you think it was an overreaction before the joke?

Comrade Shamrock, please explain more.

I technically didn't even point a FOS at him. I just said it was kind of suspicious.

ICs: What do you think of these accusations? Are they just overractions to a figure of speech, or a mafia newb slip-up?

I'm hesitant to think that AlleeCat is mafia as I think she just meant it as a figure of speech and that it wasn't a slip-up. I could be wrong, but I'd still like to hear your opinions on this.

I was struggling for words when I used "shot myself in the foot," I was just trying to say that I was hoping not posting anything for a day or two wouldn't make me instantly branded a lurker and lynched on D1.

I'm more inclined to believe it's a figure of speech, implying that she thought she'd be branded a lurker and lynched for missing a day. I also feel that Comrade Shamrock is the one who made it a big deal by blowing a figure of speech way out of proportion.

Keep in mind that many players take mafia extremely seriously. Jokes that seem incredibly obvious and funny will not be obvious or funny to others. I do suggest using joke tags or a  :P, but sometimes even they can't block the conspiracy theories that people cook up.

Top notch flavor Tiruin, top notch. You have learned well.

Alright children. I’ve been gone for quite some time. I apologize but I’ve been busy. It happens, but I still apologize. Anyways, let’s talk to people and give them helps. Remember, I am also a player so you should analyze everything I say for any slips in logic. That said I will try to win. However text in lime green or green is my IC talk. That means anything I say in them are my honest professional advice. This will not be used to mislead you. That being said let’s get started!

ICs: What do you think of these accusations? Are they just overractions to a figure of speech, or a mafia newb slip-up?

I think the three key players [Immaterial, Comrade, and Allee] are all seperate instances of this.

Allee is getting railed on this far harder than she deserves. She panicked a little at the accusation [a lot of first time players do] and I feel like she's handling it rather well since then.

Immaterial strikes me as someone who is simply going with what he thinks is right based on his limited experience with forum mafia.  His case is weak, but so are all day 1 cases I find. I think he's wrong, but he is doing what he feels is right I'm sure.

Comrade seems to be trying to inflate this into a lynch. I would like to hear more about why a simple misunderstanding deserves a lynch. Note that this is NOT in your spoiler. That's because it involves my vote. Always keep your vote out of spoilers and quotes.

I posted earlier, you must have missed it. I posted on pages 4 and 5, if that helps.
