I will respond to that at 3pm when I have time to properly think up a plan and am finished with my schoolwork as I am in class at the moment.

Think up a plan, or consult with your partner?

An excellent point.  Who would you, Elephant Parade, least like to see as the scumteam in this game, and why?

I don't think that that'll work, but it's an answer. Unvote.

Doomchild, you're attacking lurkers. That's easy. How come you're not asking anyone else anything? Are you afraid of giving up your role on accident and want to play it safe?

Yeah, you're right.  I am going after lurkers.  I suppose a lot of that would be that it seems (after reading previous games) that lurkers tend to do way more harm than good to town, and since I want to win, we need to get them to talk, right?

But in the spirit of trying to be more proactive (sometimes I have a bad habit of becoming too passive), what role (Doctor, Cop, etc) would you, Gentlefish, most like to have in this game, and why?

In this game? Jailer would be fun for once. I've had Mafioso and cop. Never jailer. Block/save would be interesting if nothing happened in the night, I think. I'd have to look over the posts.

I haven't read any of the games with crazy role setups, so the Jailer seemed like a weird one to me, but I could definitely see how it could affect the game's pace and outcome.

Working on a bigger post, but since you're here right now: Persus13 needs a prod, I'm pretty sure; he hasn't made a single post all game.

Vector, your vote is still on snow dorf; they committed OMGUS, yes, but it was in their first-ever Mafia post, and their subsequent posts showed that they didn't yet have any idea how to play the game. It's been a day and a half; shouldn't you be using that vote to pressure someone else?

snow dorf: At this point, you should probably be at least slightly suspicious of at least one other player. Ask them questions! Not doing anything is known as "lurking", and will probably get you lynched. Also, you still have that OMGUS vote on Vector; if you no longer have any reason to be voting someone—say, they responded to your RVS question/statement—you shouldn't be voting them. By the way, voting someone solely or primarily because they voted you is referred to as OMGUS, or "Oh My God You Suck", and considered a strong scumtell.
ATH: If your noose-avoidance strategy is being hilariously passive, let me tell you right now: It won't work. If you keep this up, I expect you'll get lynched for being completely useless. You have not asked a single question.
TinFoilTopHat: You haven't posted. Please post.

Persus13: You are the IC. You have not made a single post. Did you forget you were in the game, or what? I'm not going to throw in a pressure vote because I'm pretty sure you don't know you're in the game, but this is ridiculous.

I don't know if you know this, E.P., but I work 6 jobs, it's the "weekend" (not for me, but you know... technically, so not necessary to be active right now by subforum rule fiat), and I need to reread the game (which I am doing right now, but I have to get up and serve tea every few minutes).

Hey, everyone. It's been a long time.

I realize that weekends are free, but you were also inactive on Friday—or does Friday count as part of the weekend, mafia-wise? I don't actually know. Either way, it sounds like you've been too busy to play, so I'll unvote.

I'm keeping my vote on TinFoilTopHat for the moment, as I think pressure on him for lurking isn't a bad thing, but here are some questions for others:

  • Gentlefish:  Would you rather be town or scum?
  • AbstractTraitorHero:  You mentioned getting lynched before for being "too honest".  How could honesty get you lynched unless you were scum?
  • Elephant Parade:  You're very in people's faces about posting.  Does silence make you uncomfortable?
  • snow dwarf:  How do you plan on finding scum?
