Dariush, who do you think we should lynch D1?
Nuke, definitely Nuke.

Tolyk, you seem strangely relaxed about the whole game. In your opinion, questioning whom of the players would bring the best results and why?

**DEFCON 5**
Free information: This has nothing to do with me.

NUKE, are you still going to boycott RVS?
Meh. I grow weary of doing this. I think that I will allow you to play the game in a way which is neither enjoyable nor effective.
Not even kidding.
Go ahead, have your RVS. See if I care.
Well, obviously I care, seeing as it is stupid and an utter waste of time.
But see if I express the fact that I care in any posts other than this one.

How are you going to play a game with so many special roles?
Carefully.

Nuke, definitely Nuke.

Why would you even say that.

Andrew, how much've you played, and stuff. Also, how do you plan on winning this game.
Also, a hypothetical scenario: you're driving around the town, when suddenly a traffic light appears. Which colour is the light currently lit?

MBP:
I think it's stupid. Ask real questions please.

Irony:
Hmm... That would be hard to say since I've not played many roles. Perhaps Vigilante; It would be nice to have a bit of power on the town's side. (Although I've only played it in IRC mafia)

Urist Imiknorris:\Which third party would you most be afraid of as town?

Dariush:
Do you think there will be a lot of kills being thrown around? What kind of role do you think would be most useful for town? (Killing, Protective, Investigative, Roleblocking)

webadict, what color are you thinking of?
I dunno. Blue? There's some red and green hanging around me, so that's all I can think of now. Now it's pink. I'm done thinking about colors.

How many 3rd parties? and Yes
Ah... With 18 people? I'm thinking like 4-5 scum, 3-4 third party, and the rest town. Though I'm not to familiar with BYOR, so these are pretty much wild guesses.

TolyK: Why give a hint to your role?  Or was that not meant to be serious?
It had a  :P -face, it was just a joke.

Quote
And Andrew425, I never played with you before. Who would be your favorite scummate?
Probably Think0028, he ran the beginners mafia and would probably be good to have on the team.

TolyK
Would you rather be an SK or a vigilante?
I'd rather be a vigilante, since I would win if town won, and i wouldn't really have to be alive.
Though I can just pew pew as an sk... though probably still vig.

Also, why did you remove my name from the above quote, then ask me back?
TolyK. The joke things was allowable, but your SK vs. Vig reply is unacceptable. You are claiming you would win if town won as if you yourself are not town. You also consider the sk as if you already are an sk.

Webadict, let's say that you're a poisoner. Who would you poison tonight, and why?
Well, depends on whether I poison during the Day or during the Night. If I were to poison during the Day, then I would wait until near the end of the Day to choose. Otherwise, I'd wait until the Night to choose. Because poisoning people at the start of Day 1 is a really stupid idea, and it usually gets you killed (As does most D1 kills).

Now, you should rephrase your question to less stupid things that are not quite as loaded. I would consider this replacement: "You have a Day 1 kill that must be used now. Who do you use it on?" In which case I would reply TolyK. That question isn't pointlessly time dependent, and therefore answerable right now. See the difference?

Urist:
Darvi, if you were a cop, who would you inspect first?
Why just one question?
I tend to half-ass things late at night.

Irony:
Urist Imiknorris: Which third party would you most be afraid of as town?
SKs or a cult.

Simple: If you were a one-shot roleblocker, how would you choose your target?

Mr. Person: What role or person do you feel most threatened by?

Think0028 : Who do you think will give you most trouble day one and why ?

MBP : What's your favorite part of D1 play ?

Ottofar : Do you think we will see more than one kill tonight ?

Simple: If you were a one-shot roleblocker, how would you choose your target?
I would save it until i got at least some knowledge of how the roles are distributed and/or very serious suspicions towards someone, in game this big throwing it early would be rather useless. Of course i would also use it if we would come to some critical situation ( one death to lylo or something like that)  or we come up with a fail-proof plan to win with the block's help.

This would probably be because I wrote it within a period of like 30 minutes (off and on) and so my words weren't written coherently. Big deal. "Can" to "could" and it's good.

Dariush, who do you think we should lynch D1?
Nuke, definitely Nuke.
Why?

Tolyk, you seem strangely relaxed about the whole game. In your opinion, questioning whom of the players would bring the best results and why?
I want to have a more laid-back game, though that probably won't work now :P
I think everyone needs to be questioned, but i'm guessing the more experienced players (Think, Irony, Wuba, Person, and the like). I know Jack AT is a good mafia-side player (from being on the same team as him before :P) so questioning him might help too.

First!
Alright, Wuba, how do you think flavor will be thrown around?
Why do I care?
Answer the question please. Me no like dodgy.

Why?
Haven't you heard? Dariush has figured out my 100% accurate meta scumtell: Existing.

Hey, remember when I said I wasn't going to whine about the RVS?
Me too.
And I'm not! Carry on RVSing, see if I care!

Why would you even say that.
Because it suggests that someone is a nuclear weapon of some kind, whose effectiveness is tied to the state of Defcon.
One might suspect that I am that person.
I was clarifying that I am not. Ain't I kind? Yes, I am.
Why was this not obvious? It seems pretty obvious to me.

Can't decide if this is incredibly audacious , or just jestering. No lynch especially, care to explain how it would be a good idea ?

Is this a joke based on your meta, or are you being serious here?

**DEFCON 5**
Free information: This has nothing to do with me.
I was wondering about that.
Toaster:Is the DEFCON 5 thing just part of the flavor?

NUKE, are you still going to boycott RVS?
Meh. I grow weary of doing this. I think that I will allow you to play the game in a way which is neither enjoyable nor effective.

I expected more from you.
You should be experienced enough to know that such questions are usually used as jokes. Except, you slapped a vote onto it, which makes me take the question seriously. Now you've taken the time to put pressure on someone to answer your question, except your question is silly and pointless.

PPE:
No lynch
I'm not amused,NUKE. Not amused at all. Are you trying to say that the entire game is pointless? Why don't you want us doing anything?

Can't decide if this is incredibly audacious , or just jestering. No lynch especially, care to explain how it would be a good idea ?

While we're at it, explain why giving me a direct answer on the question I asked back there is a bad idea.

Vote thieves(IE the scorpion totem in totem mafia).
They can break a game.
Not only does one player lose a vote that is essential for the town to win, but the vote thief becomes a double voter, which the scum can use to hammer people.

On a more serious note:

The level of chaos is unknown, and there are a lot of players. Which is to say, we have no idea what to expect. The possibility that the town has a glut of investigative roles is valid. A D1 no lynch, then, is not as foolish a course of action as it normally is in games where the structure is well known, and we can expect lynchings to have a useful effect.
D1 lynches being essentially random, it may be better not to risk killing a useful towny who might otherwise have identified a member of the scumteam in the night.

Was just wondering, since flavor can have a large effect on play/roleguess. (i.e. demon as town? blasphemy!)
It's interesting that Wuba looks at my other questions, but not my one to him.
