animask supplies useful information sometimes~

A common mistake in these games, is people feel the needs to be mysterious, secretive, all that jazz. That's the opposite of what you should do as a pro-town member. Town's goal is to put the puzzle together, not scramble the pieces.

l2p animask.

@Rolled I didn't really say anything like that yet. I was serious with my last question.

I don't want people to FoS me when I start doing better now...

Also, I thought it would be okay to be just a bit careless on Day 1 because there isn't much
being relayed around anyways and most people make somewhat random votes anyways (in larger groups).

If it was then maybe you could have worded it better? Basically all you said was, if I was less X, will I be more X?
It doesn't make sense.

I'll unvote you when you start "doing better" and if someone else suspicious comes around.

Day 1 is important. Why? Because it gives you possible links to players, offers scumtells/insights that may have been ironed out by Night 1 via Scumchat, etc. So Day 1 is important.

I'm gonna take a stab at interpreting animask's question. Do you mean something like "People have been finding my previous behaviour suspicious, but if I stop acting like that will you guys find the fact that I'm acting differently suspicious?"

Yes, that's what I mean. I have a strong feeling that at least some of you will be.
Rolled
If you think your old playstyle works, keep it. If not, change it. Once you find a nice balance try to stay as consistent as possible, regardless of your role.

You've made it obvious so far this game that you don't want to cause suspicion. This obviously means you are mafia.

FoS: animask

everything is wifom, nohitter
Sleep Powder
@Rolled, I thought being less suspicious was something that everyone is supposed to do.
No matter what role you have, being suspicious isn't a good thing.

You assume that I'm hiding a role (which happens to be mafia). Being suspicious doesn't always make you mafia.

You might be secretly assuming I have an aux role, but accusing people of having one isn't a pro-town thing to do
(at this time of the game).
Rolled
A person becomes suspicious when they're suspected of something other than what they're presenting.

Wouldn't want anybody to scream WIFOM at me, so with this logic it doesn't necessarily mean you're mafia. But coupled with other things you've said already, it could make someone's opinion sway in that direction.

I have no idea what this even means.

Can you elaborate on this? Are you asking if there's a group agreement on animask's role? Weird.
DeathxShinigami
@Rolled I'm just asking if anyone has an idea on what animask's role could be since he's always rather outspoken no matter what he ends up being.

Personally I think he has a pro town aux role or is just plain town but again no immediate ideas.
Sleep Powder
@Rantai, (FoS) Who said that he was a townie? You're not supposed to assume that... If you assumed that he was mafia instead,
he might be trying to use "WIFOM" to make people think I'm mafia or have an aux role. (The mafia/townie[aux] thing can be pretty persuading.)

@DxS, my role doesn't really matter right now, does it? I could be honest and say that I don't have one, but
the odds of people actually believing that is really small.

The day is being extended? Who do we vote for?

*looks at his own post*

Vote: Rantai
Haneii
@animask: Sounded like a general statement to me, don't really think Rantai was making any assumptions. Regardless, you're in too much of a hurry, imo, to vote Rantai. And for what? Assuming rolled is town?

Furthermore, you spent your past posts explaining how assuming/accusing someone of a role this early in the game isn't pro-town. DxS was just role fishing + expressed his thoughts about you having a pro aux role or being a plain town member. Yet, after all that, you suspect and vote Rantai?


@DxS: Why did you ask for his role earlier? How do you know/why do you think he's town now?

Good town players don't try to look less (or more) suspicious. They have nothing to worry about, and nothing to hide.

Mafia players should try to look less suspicious. However, good mafia players know how to do this without anyone noticing.

animask wrote:

You're right. But suspicions change; your role doesn't. Suspicions are traits of a character, and that character is bound to a role. Don't think of suspicions as traits of a role.

A tip for you, animask: Do not respond to anything directed at your meta. Do not think about anything related to your meta. Do not think about how to play the game. Just play your role to the best of your ability. If you are a mafia player, try to cast suspicion on other players while keeping it away from yourself. (As I said before, good mafia players can do this well.) If you are a town player, find clues from discussions, help iron out issues and details, and eventually try to find the mafia players. You don't need to worry about anything else.

There's a difference here. DxS isn't claiming (explicitly or implicitly) that animask has a role. Rentai, however, is implicitly claiming that Rolled has a certain role. (I personally don't share this view with animask; I am just expressing my thoughts about your FoS.)
Sleep Powder
@Haneii, ooo, I haven't played with you before. Lets play~ lulz

Day 1 is almost over and I probably won't be able to post again before its done.

I voted for Rantai because of the way he assumed that Rolled was pro-town. Only a mafia member would know that and he didn't
really word it in an "assumption" manner. Also, I'm not accusing him of being mafia, but I'm saying that he seemed to be thinking as mafia.
DxS isn't really role-fishing and I replied to tell him that he doesn't need to be. You can't assume someone's role so early in the game, which is also why I said that figuring out my role in the beginning wasn't really possible or needed (mafia or not).

I'm also getting a townie feeling from you...

@Ph0X, okay I get what you're trying to say. I shouldn't be using metagaming to shape my suspicions and accusations. Doing
this would make me less open-minded and tunneling would occur more often.

Mmm good point there. I made that statement because I felt you were implying that Rolled was a townie when you said "but accusing people of having one isn't a pro-town thing to do".

I have no idea what's going through DxS's mind most of the time. It doesn't make sense for either a pro-town OR mafia player to say, since it's not only rolefishing but blatantly obvious rolefishing. So my official opinion: no idea.

I don't really have an example.

I just get the feeling that his previous posts could benefit possible future acts of WIFOM.

My FoS was me agreeing with the suspicions that everyone placed on NoHItter.

Also, where's Rantai? I only unvoted for him because I thought it was too early to finalize a vote.
Sleep Powder
Addition to last post...

The entire "WIFOM is never useful" statement gave me an idea that NoHItter will sneak in some WIFOM later in the game.
Rantai
I don't have much to add at this point...

But I don't really see how NoHItter is being overly suspicious, just aggressive.

Before I go further though can someone explain to me exactly what WIFOM represents, I read about it but would like some clarification.

No lynch is not beneficial in this situation, especially since it's a relatively small game and there aren't many lynch opportunities.

Rantai wrote:

Here's a simple example: your friend puts his hands behind his back and tells you he his holding a dollar in one of them. Pick the right hand and you win the dollar - if not, you owe him a dollar. He then says "the dollar is in my right hand". Which hand do you choose? You might think "well he wouldn't actually say that if it was in his right hand", but then again, what if he knew you would think that so he actually DID put it in his right hand? But what if he knew that you would think THAT... and it keeps going. Thus, "the dollar is in my right hand" is a WIFOM statement.

I dunno what you've read already, but this page explains it pretty well I think.
Sleep Powder
tl;dr

There is risk in WIFOM and something is said that attempts to
make a player choose between a few options.

I think that's it...
Rantai
Ahh thanks, that clears a lot up.

Well then continuing...

I don't understand what Ph0X is trying to do here because as far as I can tell, thinking that WIFOM is bad, isn't something I'd associate with suspicion. If anything, it's just an opinion being expressed and used.

@0_o

I can't decide on who to vote for T_T

I don't really see how NoHitter's posts/behavior indicate he's mafia. I find Ph0x more suspicious for using those reasons to vote NoHitter.

currently: FoS on animask, DxS and Ph0x, but not based on much :/

....lynching NoHitter would make things clearer. Unethical though :| + rather not risk lowering our numbers (There's a chance more than one person might die tonight...dun dun duuun)
NoHitter
But lynching is are only weapon for eliminating Mafia (apart from a Vig).
I highly doubt Mafia will kill themselves during the Night.
Sleep Powder
@Haneii, not lynching on the first day has the benefit of increasing
the odds of finding a mafia member the next day (after NK). If we
vote and end up lynching a pro-town today, we willl have better chances
of finding a mafia member next day. Also, the suspect that we are all voting
for will get the chance to somehow defend themselves to reclaim their
pro-town status (possibly). We can analyze their defense to decide if they're
guilty or not.

Also, not all suspicious behavior leads to being mafia.

Am I only being FoS'd because of my "less suspicious makes me more suspicious" WIFOM statement?
Rolled
Hello Mafia game. I apologize for lack of interest, but I went and re-read the thread a couple of times and here's some input.

First and foremost, I'm alarmed nobody prodded me. I could definitely over analyze this and find the people with the most to gain from not prodding, but I'll give the benefit of the doubt and assume you guys just don't give a shit ^___^

Back to page 2:

animask wrote:

Confirmed.
Luckily for animask, this statement got ignored as the day went on. The only person that has tried to make a case out of it is NoHitter, and truthfully I agree with him. A statement like this is beyond a newbie's mistake of speaking their mind. Pulling the numbers out of my ass, I'd assume something like this is more probable to have some kind of reverse-psychology behind it from a player of animask's level. +10 animask.

My immediate thought behind this, is how is Rantai's statement implying that I am town? @phox, saying Rantai was implying I'm town is WIFOM. The statement could just as easily mean "Animask, you're aux and Rolled is mafia" just as much as "Animask, Rolled is town and thinks you are mafia." I feel like I'm missing something that is apparent to other players, so please fill me in if so.

DxS wrote:

Immediately appears to me that DxS is looking for a bandwagon to hop on, which isn't really a pro-town thing to do at this point. Though, his later statement shows his belief (fact or fictional) to be that animask is pro-town, which somewhat counters this argument.

Haneii wrote:

A very good point, and I agree with Haneii's line of thinking. I feel the reason that animask held his vote, obviously, is because DxS is voicing his opinion that animask is pro-town (which is gathered out of thin air) -5 Haneii since I'm in agreement with him.

This is wrong, and is an attempt to undermine Haneii's way of thinking.
DxS is explicitly claiming that animask is pro-town.
Rantai is implicitly claiming that I have a role. (which I don't agree with, but for sake of this argument let's assume)
Haneii's FoS is completely valid in this situation. +5 ph0x for not acknowledging this.

One of those annoying Quarezahasshsa-ish posts. No backing or reasoning behind it, and one of the few posts Firo has made.
NoHitter had all of the right in the world to ask for Firo's logic behind his reasoning, and Ph0x answered NoHitter's question for Firo.

Ph0x, I don't feel it was your time to speak after NoHitter asked Firo a question. All you successfully accomplished was an easy cop-out for Firo, when it was a strong possibility he would not be able to word an explanation of his own. Turns out, he simply did use your reasoning to justify his vote for NoHitter. +5 ph0x, +5 Firo.

As far as NoHitter's playstyle, (non-meta, wifom sucks etc) I don't necessarily agree with it either (everything is wifom~). Does this make him suspicious, though? Not in my eyes.

Final tally from this textwall:
Animask: +10
Ph0x: +10
Firo: +5
Heneii: -5
Also like to FoS DxS for never giving his reasoning behind his belief in animask's innocence. Don't feel like adding a point value, so meh.
I'm going to cast my vote for animask. While he is tied with ph0x, ph0x has gathered the majority of his points from defending players who I don't feel are necessarily mafia. I feel there's a fine line between needlessly defending players, and voicing your opinion about said player, and ph0x crossed it in a few occasions.

About my no lynch: yes, most of you are right about lynching being our main weapon + increases our chances of finding mafia (although that's just chance + probability...I hate making decisions when I'm not sure XD). But I already had an idea of who might be mafia and with the day almost ending (6 days past btw) it looked like NoHitter would be lynced - someone who I believe is town. I thought, 'If the day ends without most of us voting, will the mod assume they're voting for a no lynch? (I prob shouldn't make assumptions like that :|)'. So if that was the case, I'd just help make that the majority vote. Why not vote for someone on my FoS list? Again, looked like the day would end any min and I'd prob be the only person voting in a such a way . I was worried that if I do it would let NoHitter get lynched. Hopefully that 1 kill at night + maybe some information from an investigative role will help make a better decision, because at that point I didn't think my suspicions were warranted...

...However, now rolled posts. He not only agrees and pointed out all the reasons for my FoS list, gives me even more reasons that I haven't thought about (especially in Ph0x's case). I think I am now confident enough to:

(Formatting kinda corrected.)
The fact that NoHItter argues against WIFOMic statements isn't why I find him suspicious. The fact that NoHItter abuses that same argument continually and tries very hard to attack other players using "your argument is invalid" techniques is why I find him suspicious.

I don't disagree with NoHItter's arguments. I just find them to be forced.

The way I saw it:

Rentai reads animask's post as, "You [Rolled] might be secretly assuming I [animask] have an aux role, but accusing people of having one isn't a pro-town thing to do." Rentai responds, "I doubt any townie [Rolled] would jump on you [animask] if they suspected you [animask] have an aux role."

The "any townie [Rolled]" part is what I was referring to as "implicitly claiming".

Realized I missed this post by DxS. Either way, though, there is a difference in how DxS and Rentai handled things.

A direct argument against Haneii's is: maybe DxS is right and animask doesn't want to vote for him because of this. (Saying this from animask's perspective, of course.)

Turns out, he simply did use your reasoning to justify his vote for NoHitter. +5 ph0x, +5 Firo.
I wasn't expanding upon Firo's post. I even said this in my post:

(I don't know if Firo came to the same conclusion as me. Just stating my thoughts of NoHItter after a re-read.)
I find Firo's following post kind of awkward, though.

While he is tied with ph0x, ph0x has gathered the majority of his points from defending players who I don't feel are necessarily mafia. I feel there's a fine line between needlessly defending players, and voicing your opinion about said player, and ph0x crossed it in a few occasions.
I was poking at a player's argument in each instance I was "defending" someone. It's how I always play.

I thought, 'If the day ends without most of us voting, will the mod assume they're voting for a no lynch? (I prob shouldn't make assumptions like that :|)'. So if that was the case, I'd just help make that the majority vote.
Please read the rules:

Rules wrote:

9. A lynch occurs when a player has an absolute majority of votes on them.

10. At deadline, the player with the most votes is lynched. In the event of a draw, the player who had the most votes before being tied will be lynched.

So does that mean, in the case where majority hasn't voted, majority vote would be no vote (no lynch)?

or

those who don't vote by the end of the day lose their say/vote and the person with the most votes at the time gets lynched?

Players who haven't voted contribute no vote. A no-lynch vote is a type vote, and has to be contributed.

Your last option is correct.

Wow, I had no idea it was this far into the day already. Day ends in ~18 hours.

I think I meant to link DxS's previous post, but linked that one by mistake.
Rolled
You have to realize how unlikely your claim of "missing his post" is. Granted, knowing your meta, I doubt you'd make such an argument (explicit vs implicit) fully aware of DxS's explicit claim, however I feel this is a more likely to be selective targeting than an honest mistake.

ie, DxS's post was in your subconscious, yet Rantai was your meal of choice. The likelyhood of you literally "missing" his post is very slim.
Rolled
You asked 0_o's opinion to create distance between yourself and DxS? Maybe.

No; I noticed the game was slowing down and made an attempt to kickstart discussion.
Ph0X
And I honestly didn't remember DxS saying he thought animask was pro-town until I looked back from your post, Rolled.

That I find strange, seeing as you linked to it directly. Let me make sure I understand fully; You're claiming to have mentally (or literally) skipped DxS's post stating animask is pro-town, and in an attempt to jumpstart discussion, you intended to ask faceman's opinion on this post made by DxS?

DxS wrote:

tick tock tick tock.

So....any ideas if we can assume what role animask is?
For the record I also find this whole "tick tock" bit to be awkward. I can't supply any information behind my feeling but it doesn't sit well in my stomach.

I took that as "well, the time is passing... let's talk about something". I guess there was no real hurry (and things weren't that slow at the time), so it's kind of out of place.
Rantai
Originally I had Ph0X and Firo as my top 2 suspicions but wanted to get some clarification from Ph0X before making any choices. At the very least Ph0X's train of thought makes sense to me but I don't necessarily agree with him (I still think it's simple aggressive play)

As it stands, Firo didn't make any sort of argument as to why she found NoHItter suspicious, jumping onto Ph0X's reasoning without any extra input (pretty sure Rolled outlined this somewhere). If I had to guess, I'd say she was just looking for an easy vote and NoHItter's aggression was the perfect scapegoat.

Otherwise I don't feel too strongly about anyone else at this stage.

Vote: Firo
Sleep Powder
Playing Style

I still get the feeling that I should vote for Rantai, but I shouldn't focus too much on my original suspicions. (aka my target suspect)

I'm in a similar position as Haneii right now. I don't have enough information to vote for anyone else.

@Ph0X, "inb4 some retarded Two logic about me not wanting you to be around to benefit myself" seems like a WIFOM statement.
You say its retarded, but you could be trying to avoid Rolled's metagaming in the future which can be good or bad. Lets see... the good
thing would be if Rolled was actually mafia and tries to use something similar to what you stated. This way, you would be able to prevent any accusations or statements from Rolled from hurting you. If you were mafia this would benefit you by making other players believe that similar accusations made by Rolled are useless and will just make Rolled more guilty in some way.

I really have no idea where I got this idea from, but its just an idea and I'm not even sure about an FoS atm.

The above was all saved as a draft from about 6 hours ago.

@Rantai, use quotes so I know what you're talking about next time...

Vote: Ph0X

Reason? Reason 1 would be to eliminate my thick metagame tunneling for Ph0X and try to imagine him as mafia for once. Reason 2 would
be the things that I stated earlier.

You're right; it is a WIFOM statement. I was shutting down a possible (though not probably) WIFOMic argument with which Rolled could have possibly responded.

Didn't you say "I'm not even sure about a FoS atm"? What pushed it over the edge?
NoHitter
At the moment, I don't think Ph0x is a good lynch target.
I prefer a lynch on Firo for voting me without even stating the reason apart from "I agree with Ph0x"

Unvote:
Vote: Firo
Ph0X

Seems like another Q to me. No input, disparity in posts, and doesn't respond well to prods at all.
DeathxShinigami
I have a feeling firo is just kinda here in the games just to be "here"

Doesn't seem like someone who even has a willingness to create a constructive post imo.

Day 1 ended like 8 hours ago. :roll:
