4maskwolf, I'm surprised you didn't vote OSG if you think he's rolefishing.

I'm surprised you managed to fuck up your names in the first ten posts of the game.

[Deus Asmoth]

NQT, why say that role fishing isn't a scumtell in KOTM specifically? Surely that'd be true of any BYOR or bastard type game where roles aren't necessarily linked to alignment?

Shakerag, given the advantage of surviving a round regardless of alignment, do you think that players will be less inclined to pursue cases and draw attention on themselves?

It may or may not be a tell in a BYOR or Bastard. I said KOTM specifically because that's the specific game we were about to play.

OSG, was your ability taken or swapped?

Shakerag, it's been nearly two years since the last King game. What's your strategy for winning?

Yeah well, quickposting late at night will cause you to mix up your names.

So, if you thought hector was rolefishing, and thought that suspicious, why didn't you vote him, especially since the activity system gives you extra incentive to vote as much as possible.

OSG, was your ability taken or swapped?

Taken. I don't have it anymore.

[notquitethere]

OSG, was your ability taken or swapped?

Taken. I don't have it anymore.

Look through the list of roles and tell me what could have done that.

[TolyK]

Toaster, please send me far down on the queue. >.>

[origamiscienceguy]

Thief, Locke, Flitch.

[Toaster]

Toaster, please send me far down on the queue. >.>

Done.  I still don't have a role for you, so technically you shouldn't be on it at all.

His role fishing isn't necessarily suspicious, I just asked him why he did it.  Am I not allowed to ask questions without finding something suspicious?

[Shakerag]

OSG:

Who took my ability?

Well, if your ability was Ice Cream Man, then that was me.  So, scumbag, trying to target the stronger players first to ensure they lose their abilities so as to make your odds of winning better?

Thief, Locke, Flitch.

Bzzt.  Try again.


Deus Asmoth:

Shakerag, given the advantage of surviving a round regardless of alignment, do you think that players will be less inclined to pursue cases and draw attention on themselves?

Possibly.  But then that makes it easier for any other player to jump on their ass about it too.  On the other hand, with only seven players, I think there's less chance to sit back and let others do the work like there would be in a much larger game. 

Which means, sadly, that I'm likely going to have to stop being lazy and relying on my night game so much.


NQT:

Shakerag, it's been nearly two years since the last King game. What's your strategy for winning?

Seeing as that I've never played in a KotM before, I suppose I'm just going to wing it. 
Do -you- have a strategy for winning, oh great Mafia subforum representative?

Look through the list of roles and tell me what could have done that.

Why did you even bother asking this question?  Why make OSG look for the role?
Anyway, I'll save you the trouble; it was Yellow Goo.


4maskwolf: What metal would best describe the kind of balls you'll be displaying in this game?

hector13: Let's pretend OSG said what his ability was right away.  How would that information change your play?

Persus13: Okay, first off, what's with all the "13"s?  Secondly, do you need some aloe for that burn?  Thirdly, in such an intimate game, do you really think that quickposting at night is a solid idea?

[4maskwolf]

4maskwolf: What metal would best describe the kind of balls you'll be displaying in this game?

Firemetal.

What is this quote here in reference to?  NQT hadn't posted since game start.

[notquitethere]

OSG

Thief, Locke, Flitch.

Locke and Filch aren't legal roles.

Shakerag

Seeing as that I've never played in a KotM before, I suppose I'm just going to wing it.

Shakerag, you're losing your memory in your old age or you're just making stuff up.

Do -you- have a strategy for winning, oh great Mafia subforum representative?

Yeah. For this round at least. I'll explain it in my denouement post when I've found all the clues.

Why did you even bother asking this question?  Why make OSG look for the role?

I was about to leave the house and didn't have time to look myself.

Anyway, I'll save you the trouble; it was Yellow Goo.

Plausible.

I don't normally answer other people's questions but in this case, I'll point you to here.

[notquitethere]

Hector, say I'm a cop, would you like it if I inspected you?

Deus, would you be more threatened by a player who claimed to a have a reactive role or a proactive role (i.e. a role that does something to people targeting them, vs. a role that targets people)?

Persus, Shakerag claims to have a goo role. Do you think goos will be popular?

4mask, Pick one of the three questions I just asked the others and answer it.

[4maskwolf]

4mask, Pick one of the three questions I just asked the others and answer it.

Why not all of them?

4mask, say I'm a cop, would you like it if I inspected you?

That would be acceptable, but I'd rather you actually find scum.

4mask, would you be more threatened by a player who claimed to a have a reactive role or a proactive role (i.e. a role that does something to people targeting them, vs. a role that targets people)?

Reactive, because along with day action users they make very dangerous king mafia.

Persus, Shakerag claims to have a goo role. Do you think goos will be popular?

Dunno.  As far as I remember KotM 4 only had one goo role (me as toxic goo) and I haven't read the earlier ones, so predictions by me would be rather silly.
