I'm not a mind reader, I don't see much of a point on speculating about your assumption.

This strikes me awfully of playing it safe, sitting on the fence and hemming and hawing. Why don't you want to stand out by assigning a position to Jack?

Because I don't think it's going to produce anything worthwhile, and I think he's up to something.
BHK, do you, as I, suspect everyone has a night action?
No. I think that there are some vanilla townies in play.

Then why continuously point out he's up to something? If you're not going to speculate, you should probably move on.

SO YOU ARE A POWER ROLE.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From that I would actually assume he's a VT, but then we also get into WIFOM territory of "he could just be saying that to seem harmless"

Jack A T, I'm a little short on time, and I can't be ninja'd because it cancels my post. Further explanation gets too private for my liking.
Moonlit: Understood.  I won't press you on it.

I think the people voting for you [Moonlit] aren't being quite fair
hector13: Explain.

I'm not a mind reader, I don't see much of a point on speculating about your assumption.
BlackHeartKabal: Understood, thank you.  This is Mafia, though.  None of us are mind readers, I hope, yet we all are constantly speculating about the motivations and assumptions behind everyone's words and actions.  It's how the game generally works, even on the most action-focused sites.  What makes this situation unworthy of the usual speculation?

To answer your question, there was one major underlying assumption, and it's hard to dispute: that you made a decision not to question me, engage with me, or anything of the sort initially.  That which is conspicuously absent is often as interesting as what is present, and my absence from your questioning was quite conspicuous, so I asked about it.
[...]and I think he's up to something.
Oh?

PPE: How about we all stop talking about whether we have powers or not?  Let's not give scum too much guidance on who to kill.
And what's a VT?
Moonlit: Vanilla Townie.

Ok, stupid reaction. We already knew that, if BHK is to be trusted. ...:)
I didn't say that I wasn't a power role, though.

O.Wilde, so far what I've seen of you is a bit of question answering and an (admittedly believable) breakdown of the roles in the game.
I mean, I'd hardly call that a breakdown. That was just numbers copy-pasted from the OP.

Two-man scum teams tend to have a talker and a lurker. I'm not saying you're lurking (we're only 24 hours in!) but right now I haven't seen enough of you to get much of handle.
Yeah, apologies for that. I didn't get a chance to jump into the real first couple hours of RVS due to real life, and this game shifted to more serious things a lot faster than any others I've played. I'll be much more active from here on in.

Everyone but Tawa's said some things: who deserves your vote right now?
I'll get to this in a second.

I think I'm the only one (whose being bandwagoned) that actually has a hint of suspicion there.
How special. <3 <3

Really can't say anything, but that bit's not quite enough to lynch me.
That really depends on who votes for you, actually.

Ok, stupid reaction. We already knew that, if BHK is to be trusted. ...:)
Why do you do things like this? Why qualify you last statement without adding anything of substance? Especially the last bit?

Note: I don't think this is especially terrible or scummy, I just mostly think it's incredibly annoying and distracting. And confusing.

Quote from: Re:Irrefutable Evidence
Yes, but not today.
How on earth do you expect irrefutable evidence to exist in Mafia?

Moonlit, do you care about the answers to the questions you ask? Why do you ask so many, and let them fall to the side, unanswered?

We already assumed u were a power role
Who is we?

Through death, mostly. Cop results work too if that cop is proven.

You expect him to die, and then lead the townies? What exactly is that logic?

hector13: Explain.

You voted for Moonlit for - what I felt were - spurious reasons.

NQT FoS'd Moonlit for stating a desire to stay alive. Moonlit is a newer player (presently playing a BM) and will likely have the beginner's desire to continue being active in the game, which is something of a null-tell. Tawarochir, one of the ICs in the BM, suggests a desire for continued existence is not actually a scumtell.

DA votes Moonlit because of (what I imagine he thinks is) a scumslip. It could also just be what Moonlit thinks of the game. He has shown he likes to post unfiltered thoughts, so again, nulltell.

TDS we've gone over, and I like him as scum.

I think that's it...

I expect him to rise from the dead and direct us, of course. It isn't necessarily him that has to die. Others, depending on what they say, could clear him after their own deaths.

Giving waitlisted people the ability to murder non-responsive players was a great idea. Need to do that more often.
