If a townie is to be lynched on the first day, it might as well be me, but I'd much rather we lynch a mafia member instead. So I'm going to defend myself. I'll start with dorf, the guy who instantly responded to my random vote with a OMGUS vote and a vendetta.
Seems to me we have a lot of overeager newbies here. Which is nice and dandy, if you would have something concrete to back up your claims. Instead, you're overreacting to RVS posts and are exposing yourselves for lynching.
Now, if what you are doing is a newbtell, you should be fine, as soon as you become rational.
But so far, I must admit, your behavior is quite anti-town.
I am a newbie, but I have quoted evidence to support every single one of my claims. I am not an "overeager newbie" for pressuring people on day one, or for random voting. I unvoted my random vote as soon as I had a lead.
Isn't it obvious that by calling us newbies overeager, you're encouraging us to lurk? I'm *sure* you know that lurking is anti-town. So why are you trying this?
You say we should provide "something concrete to back up your claims"? Then I demand, again, that you explain your OMGUS vote against me:
*snickers*
I would want to be a Godfather. Seems I could do a lot of damage as Mafia, if I wouldn't get myself lynched, of course.
Right now, everyone has posted except GlyphGryph, and dorf. Dorf hasn't responded to a question yet, so I'll add some pressure.
Unvote
Vote dorf
How does it feel, Rolan7?
You quote this OMGUS below, yet you provide absolutely no justification of your vote. Just like when you first made it. And it is not a random vote, as you claim, because you do it in direct response to me random voting you. Can you explain these, well, lies?
Let me explain.
Pro-town wants to lynch scum. Anti-town don't care who gets lynched, just that it's not them.
What you are doing is throwing accusations all over the place, without backing them up. I see many of you are changing votes rapidly, which doesn't help with your credibility, either.
What you should do is concentrate on scumtells and elaborate on them. What you are doing now will only benefit Mafia.
Of course, if you are anti-town, then keep up the good work! You're preparing a nice situation that could lead to a mislynch.
Halmie and Rolan7 are both very excited to be playing. But I think Halmie is just trying to scumhunt and get some conversation going.
Rolan7 is being weirder, though.
Feel free to elaborate on my "weird"ness. Until then, you're just mad that I randomly voted you.
If you think what Halmie is doing is scummy:
Hey, dorf what role would you most like to be in this game?
Vote Halmie. Are you trying to get dorf to claim a role, or am I missing something?
Why do you suddenly side with him?
It was a random vote, and right after you ask this question, you answer it by quoting my justification for changing my vote:
No, I am questioning him. It gets discussion going. I said what role would you want in this game. So no I'm not asking what role he has.
Fair enough. This is the same reason I questioned you over something so minor.
Right now, everyone has posted except GlyphGryph, and dorf. Dorf hasn't responded to a question yet, so I'll add some pressure.
Unvote
Vote dorf
Then:
This isn't "adding pressure", this is bandwagoning without a valid reason.
I give a valid reason. At the time, you had not posted. All I meant to do was encourage you to post, yet you responded by voting me and mounting this assault of untruths at me.
How does it feel, Rolan7?
You sound terrified of a lynching, scum. Townies take it for the team, and certainly shouldn't fear a single random vote. My vote stands.
To answer your question, it feels great to have identified a mafia. Possibly a Godfather trying for WIFOM!
Here he overreacts over my first post in this game. He is SURE that I am scum from my RVS vote.
He is LITERALLY saying that I am Mafia, and not only that! He's even quoted my initial 5 words to present that as proof of my scumdom.
I'm being agressive because of Dakarian's post, directly before I posted, which encouraged us to be rediculously aggressive. Yet you choose to attack me, some newbie, instead of critiquing the IC. Why would you do that if you were a cooperative townie? Are you too busy flinging accusations at me, to share you wisdom with the town? No.
But even he saw the silliness in his empty accusations, so he said to himself "ooh, I better find some more things to say", and he came up with this:
Voting Halmie, for the "town is so fucked" sounding scummy.
Edited because I forgot to put Halmie in red.
You really shouldn't do that :s
Are you advising him not to edit posts, or are you threatening to nightkill him if he votes you? I think you're sending both messages here.
Let me get this straight: this time, my crime is providing too much evidence against you? So you're claiming my claims are without evidence, yet I go out of my way to find quotes to back them up.
...
Therion knew (and I bet that everybody else did too) what I was saying. How come you didn't?
I should also note that I actually explained what I meant BEFORE he posted.
I don't see your explanation, but it's not important. My question was a weak attempt to keep the pressure on you. If that pressure is the reason your arguments are so easy to break apart, then I'm glad I asked it.
Rolan7, why so overpanicking on a random question? He could have asked "What color pants yould you like?" and still have got the same amount of a read.
I answered your question with the following:
No, I am questioning him. It gets discussion going. I said what role would you want in this game. So no I'm not asking what role he has.
Fair enough. This is the same reason I questioned you over something so minor.
Right now, everyone has posted except GlyphGryph, and dorf. Dorf hasn't responded to a question yet, so I'll add some pressure.
Unvote
Vote dorf
Really, his wording seemed like it could trick someone into claiming. If it happened to be a newbie doctor or cop, that could have been disastrous for us. I'm satisfied with his answer, particularly with obviouscum like dorf.
Answer to "why are you panicking" is: "I hope we don't lose a doctor or cop with this, but I trust his RVS vote, so it's okay"
This is typical anti-town behavior. NO townie wants a mislynch, unless it can lure out the scum. You just showed the public you don't care who gets lynched and have exposed yourself as scum.
I didn't trust his RVS vote. I did some research, shared it, and chose to vote for one of the two people that hadn't posted yet. It happened to you, and you have freaked out in response. Including, lest anyone forget, instantly voting for me with *no* justification *whatsoever*.
So tell me again, Rolan7, why am I scum? Because I didn't post right at the start of the game? Because my RVS vote was on you?
At the time I was merely pressuring you to get you to vote, since you were nearly the *last* person to vote. Much less getting involved at the start.
Calling your vote a RVS vote is another flat out lie, as you quoted my random vote when you made it.
How am I more scummy than inteuniso?
Well then, Errol, been spying lately?
He only said one word more than I did. Surely that makes him scum?
I'm just a newbie, so I'll ask: does anyone thing I really need to respond to this?
Take your time replying to this, Rolan7. I'm sure you won't back off now, right?
Ball's in your court, space pirate. Unlike when I made my vote against you, I am now completely convinced that you are scum. Truth is the best weapon of the town, and I have shown you to be a liar. Isn't it one of the basic strategies, that a townie should never lie? If you are town, then we'll waste a lynching on your lying self, instead of a scum. Which would be better than lynching any of the other townies who have proceeded without obvious dishonesty.
