NQT:
Shakerag
Overall, presently, I'm indifferent to a flabort lynch.
What do you think to Jim's argument about the Flabort lynch:

Lynching a Day 1 vig claim seems like a bad idea since that certainly seems like a problem the dopps would want to solve for themselves. The vig kill is easy to verify and if flabort is an Exterminator (a vigilante is a good fake claim for an Exterminator) the dopps will want to kill him at some point. If he's a dopp vig then we've probably already lost.
?
On its own merits, it's a decent enough argument to not lynch flabort.  I'm also inclined to not lynch flabort today, but I'm catching up from the weekend right now and my opinion may change as I parse through the thread.


UXLZ:
Quote from: Shakerag
UXLZ[/color]:  You seem awfully concerned about peoples' cases on pisskop.  And yet you haven't seemed to really indicate where you (or anyone else) should be pointing their scum-dar. 

Did you miss my previous post about Tiruin? Though I appear to have been wrong, since I've found a few posts I missed.
The truth is that I kind of suck at D1 scum-hunting.
I must be missing something, because I can't see what you're talking about.
Also, I suck at D1 scum-hunting too, but I'm not whining about it.


Tiruin:
    Shakerag -- ...um. I'm unsure. He seems to be buddying with people, though not in the Mafia context of 'buddying', by that letter to Toaster?
I have no idea what you're trying to say here.
Also, looks like you missed a question of mine.


ToonyMan:
Would you say you decided to avoid being involved with Pisskop/4mask & Flabort? The day was extended so it doesn't really matter, but if Day 1 really did end on yesterday then I think it would have very likely been a Flabort lynch based on this post. Your post just to unvote shortly later doesn't seem to be doing anything besides distancing.
I wouldn't say that I was avoiding getting involved with PMgate over there.  As I said before, I had a vote on pisskop just for a bit of prodding for reactions, and had no solid reasons to keep that vote on him for the (at that time) end of the day.  If I come to the conclusion that pisskop/flabort are the scummiest, then I'm going to park a vote on one of them regardless of whatever "gambitz" were had earlier.


flabort:
Shakerag: Active lurking, not taking the game seriously. He has one post where he actually does some scum hunting.
Really.

Shakerag As the day progresses there have been some overall changes in perception. How has yours changed?
Barely.  Mostly on D1 it's a matter of forming and solidifying perceptions.  Usually I don't see too much to cause a wild change on D1.

Shakerag Lurking, Jestering
So you went from "active lurking" to "lurking" and "not taking the game seriously" to "jestering" ... when I didn't have a post in the interim.  And it was on the weekend.  Really now. 


Well, I think I'm caught up with things directed at me.  Now to make another pass.

Meph, has TheDarkStar been prodded?

The conversation, sans names

You didn't post the names but since I don't care about this sneaky goddamn bullshit, I will.

Here's pisskop's hit list:

OK, pisskop, let me get this straight. This is the second time you've asked me to kill your targets.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I disagreed with them, because I had already set up a plan for tonight with someone else. This is your response:
Fair enough.  May I ask whom?  I ask because we are starting to get into people I have no opinion of or think are also town.
Here's who you don't want me killing: NQT, yourself, TDS, Shakerag, persus, Deus, myself, scripten, toaster

Here's who I'll be killing, as had in a conversation with someone else:
Well, I will be killing either Shakerag or TheDarkStar, depending on how the day goes, if I live through day 1.

Thank you for the advice and reasoning on why not to kill Pisskop tonight.

pisskop, why are you trying to be so damn sneaky? And would you like to elaborate on why you want any of the targets you named dead, but especially the three in your revised wishlist?

I am sick of all this PM bullshit.

Flabort:
EBWOP:
As is, my vote is causing a tie. Day end isn't for another few hours, since it's still weekend for most of us, but I'm thinking of changing my vote to TDS, Shakerag, or Pisskop to break the tie right now. However, that still wouldn't be productive as it would just result in two of my suspects being tied right now; while a lynch unrelated to whom I suspect takes place.

No.  No sir.  You can't make a statement like this.  Even if you aren't actually asking for advice, it's blatantly obvious you're trying to farm out your vote (and thus responsibility for it) right here.  That's a cowardly scum move of a high order.

Everyone How would you feel about a TDStar or Shakerag lynch?

And now you're actually doing it.  Go hang, scum.

Most Scum
Pisskop Do I need to explain again?
TheDarkStar Active Lurking, Wagoning, tunnelling

Since (as of the time of your post) it's more than 24 hours to day end, not voting your top suspect is also an offense.

Toaster for similar to Jim on votes, and mostly being unreadable (Due to brevity of sentence structure?)

You sound like my mother.  (Who is an English teacher and always got on to me for that when I wrote papers in school.)

Also, where is Shakerag "jestering?"


Pisskop:  I don't get the point of asking via PM instead of publicly.  [He asked me too.]  To answer, IIRC he may have replaced in other games; I can't be bothered to look.  I assume his request is sincere; since most complaints about him have been in regards to inactivity, I'd say it'd be a waste of a lynch; there's plenty of time to grill his replacement tomorrow.

Quote from: Pisskop
No, If I wanted your opinion, and to compare it to half the game's players I would have asked 8 of you via pm.  Which I did.

My PM didn't contain that specific question, though.
That's something Flabort skipped over.  But shhhh.  He's too busy trying to lynch the strongest advocate for keeping him alive to notice.

What does this say about Flabort?


NQT:
Killing a suspicious player that we know nothing about increases our info more than killing a jumpy player that we know a lot about and can pin to an action tonight.

While I generally follow your train of logic in this post, this particular line I don't get.  Can you explain?


Deus:
Mastahcheese and Deus:  I notice you're also not voting.  Why?  Why doesn't your chief suspect warrant a vote at this time?

Still looking for an answer.


Mastahcheese:
Ah, who the fuck am I kidding. Like my vote on Scripten means shit anyway, when it's in blatent disagreeance with everyone else.

I'd rather see you vote for the person you suspect the most.



I need to examine the TDS wagon to see just how warranted it is (and also how it compares the other wagons) but that's not gonna happen right now.  As for right now, I'm now content again with my Flabort vote; he, at least, is publicly farming out his vote.


Everyone: Don't just jump into the bandwagon because you feel obliged to be making a vote. Remember to actually play Mafia- examine if the person you're voting for is somebody you think is scummy, not just somebody that is agreeably scummy amongst the general playerbase.

I'll second this.

At this point, I'm honestly getting a little tired of seeing people try to justify their bandwagon on somebody who's been unable to post and up for replacement for days now in day one. Quit it. Pisskop has been actively trying to steer a claimed vigilante into killing the people he wants killed in private, and has also been absolutely terrible at justifying any of it. Do any of you honestly believe he's town?

Flabort: You don't have to kill those people. Those days are over. You don't have to sell your body to the night nightkill anybody except those who you believe are scummy, and even if you think those proposed to your by Mr. Private are scummy, pick someone else just so scum can't plan around your kill. Nobody should be dictating who you're killing except you.

Blech, I forgot that I had slightly modifed the version I sent in PMs (though the majority of it should be the same.)

Re-reading carefully again, while TDS didn't respond directly to Cheeetar and 4mask's FoS, his sixth post was responding to the general accusations of him having no reasoning. 

In regards to why I think it would have been better for the dopp team to not reveal 4mask's plan: The gambit was essentially pointless. All it did was guarantee them a target that had no protection. (assuming 4mask wasn't fakeclaiming and trying to lure people in as a Vet).

So we have several inactive players. We also have several active lurkers. I would much rather lynch the active lurkers than Pisskop, Flabort, or the inactives/replacers at the moment. All this PM business is confusing and I want flips before we start lynching in the (fake?)claimed PRs. Flabort's actions are weird, but they don't make sense for scum. I don't know about third party, but I feel like hunting scum should take priority over hunting third parties, since we at least know how many scum there are right now. Pisskop's slot has been acting strangely, and is posting style makes me reflexively want to lynch the crap out of him, but I can see potential town motive in him trying to push Flabort to vig players. (He's a watcher variant, isn't he?)

The role description:

Quote from: Meph's Role List
Reporter
    Race: Human/Doppelganger
    Goal: Find
    Rules: Years of following celebrities around has given this person the ability to track anyone anywhere and keep out of sight in the process. Each night the Reporter can choose to either follow someone to see where they go or watch to see if anyone visits them that night. The Reporter does NOT get any more information about what happens, only the location visited or the people at the location. Attempting to follow a War Vet is still fatal, of course.
    Victory: Town/Doppelgangers win

Doesn't have all the fancy formatting, but the rules are there.

I'm breaking this post up a bit . . .

Cheetar
At this point, I'm honestly getting a little tired of seeing people try to justify their bandwagon on somebody who's been unable to post and up for replacement for days now in day one. Quit it. Pisskop has been actively trying to steer a claimed vigilante into killing the people he wants killed in private, and has also been absolutely terrible at justifying any of it.

Nobody should be dictating who you're killing except you.
The point is while I'm suggesting, somebody is directly influencing.  Who?

Quote
[Pisskop not answering my questions]
Cheetar
Pisskop: You offered to post PMs of why you think Flabort is town. What does this have to do with me wanting to vote for you? (Also: Your strongly 'suspecting' that somebody is detective means nothing to us. Either somebody has claimed to you, or you're making it up. You have nothing to work off except what people have told you, and unless you want to say that I have no reason to believe there's a detective.)

Additionally: Why send different people different PMs?
Your response is one that suggests one of two things.  I choose to believe you reacted in a relatively town way.  As explained above, I sent out two waves of PMs, to people with which I enjoyed differing levels of communication.

Good job answering none of my questions. Jee whiz. Why did you offer to give us the PMs Flabort has sent you in confidence (and why now have you posted these)? Why do you believe there's a detective? Why did you send different people different PMs?
But I did answer them.  You are not the only one who asked.
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I sent the PMs out in waves, and new people that I hadn't talked to yet were in the second wave.
  As for why I offered up Flabort's posts, I want to convince you he is also town.  I was mentioning how we could secure his vig shot without lynching him, remember?
Quote
To be fair, there is no foolproof way to ensure he is 'town vig'.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)
That's not a question of yours.  But yes, I was asking you why you wanted a TDS lynch.  I didn't remember your reasons for suspecting him, so I was being thorough.
  specially now that the TDS wagon exploded, I think its important to get the reasons down today for review tomorrow.



Toaster

Pisskop:  I don't get the point of asking via PM instead of publicly.  [He asked me too.]  To answer, IIRC he may have replaced in other games; I can't be bothered to look.  I assume his request is sincere; since most complaints about him have been in regards to inactivity, I'd say it'd be a waste of a lynch; there's plenty of time to grill his replacement tomorrow.
I wanted to ask via PM to compare seperate answers.  For instance, one answer stated they don't follow meta.  Another gave examples of why it meant nothing.  A third stated that they didn't know what to think about Deathsword's slot, but felt some kind of way about another person.

  The idea of free-for-all whispering in mafia is a new concept to me, which I rather like thus far.  I feel that the overall gain is positive for me.  I have what I feel is a small town block set aside.  And, as a bonus, Flabort's over-reactions have outed his handler's, which I'm going to demand he tell us about.  It's likely Tiruin or Jim, but, you know . . .

What does this say about Flabort?
  That he likely responded to the posted PM of Cheetar instead of the one in his PM.  Why is more open to debate . . .
-He was anxious to prove himself (town)
-He wanted me to look worse (nullscum)
-He was hoping to snowball Cheetar's vote (scum)
-He wanted to answer every question I asked (nulltown)

Given your clear suspicion of him I gather you don't think he's being an eager beaver, which I do think of him.  The clear effort put into his poor, poor, very poor attempts to make me look bad in his wall of links suggests a rather . . . 'naive' townie to me.  I wouldn't completely eliminate the possibility of him being scum off of that one post, but in PMs he's been more or less cooperative, albeit quick to jump on me.
  I have trouble believing he is scum.

Its not a hitlist.  Let's stop calling it that.  I made you suggestions, based upon how I felt at the time.

PFP so can't quote now, but Tiruin should have recieved the conversation, so she can, maybe. If not, then Jim.
I've already asked Tiruin about her PMs she received, and she has not responded.  She claims to have never received PMs, and yet Flabort trusts her enough to send her a copy of his select portions of our conversation.  She is very clearly lying, and as I see it now She and Jim make a decent scum-pair.
