Well gambit failed. Was planning on intentionally acting scummy then lynch one of the people who bandwagoned me without giving their reasoning, but it failed since people apparently don't post enough.
that was really terrible and it makes no sense
why would you lynch vote for someone who voted for you, that's just makes you look worse
if you intentionally made yourself scummy, the reason is beyond obvious
that's like someone roleclaiming mafia and saying voting for them without posting a reason is scummy
Modified Fong's Gambit. That's why I said that I would vote for someone who voted for me, but gave little reasoning. Basically someone who just wanted to hop on the bandwagon, but give no justification as to why.
Fong's Gambit = Vote yourself -> Entice scum to vote for you -> Vote for them My Gambit (Modified Fong's) = Act scummy -> Entice people to vote for you -> Vote for the people who just "bandwagoned" without giving any reasoning/ parroted other's reasoning
You have it wrong. I knew that looking like scum would place "legitimate" voters on me with reasons and all.
BUT I was looking for those who just voted me with little/no reasoning. Those who do that would just be looking for an "easy" lynch, so would bandwagon with little justification. And those who do that, would get my vote.
Fong's Gambit is difficult to play since it's pretty obvious, but what I tried to do was less obvious.

The problem with that is that most people tend to just vote willy-nilly anyway especially on day 1. If my memory serves right simply saying that particular people may have a mafia role will automatically get a bandwagon started on you despite the alignment of said voters. As far as I am concerned that doesn't constitute reasoning.
also nohitter even though your role is easy to lie about if you're mafia which is convenient, if you don't die within the next day or so you're obviously mafia
Wrong Chris. If I were really mafia, then there should be a real cop who should "counterclaim" cop.
Until someone counterclaims of anything, I should be confirmed as a cop. If someone does counterclaim, lynch either one of us. One of us will have to be mafia.

So basically, you're saying that if scum doesn't kill me, I'm scum? That's faulty logic, given the fact that we may actually have a doctor who could protect me.
Scum would want to target the doctor first before killing me since the doctor would 90% protect the claimed cop. (Follow the Cop strategy)
Oh crap. That explains why Wojjan "balanced" my role. dkun, can you confirm that you were once a full Tracker, then Wojjan changed it to even-night? Wojjan did something similar to me.
Hmm I was a Cop then Wojjan "rebalanced" my role into an Odd-Night Cop. I claimed Cop just in case scum had a roleblocker, so they would continuously roleblock me. If I had just claimed Odd-Night Cop from the start, they would have just roleblocked me every Odd-Night to prevent an investigation.
Ahh w/e. Looks like the investigative roles are now screwed. Unvote
Okay NoHItter's gambit was terrible but obv we can't lych him. Best lynches right now are pieguy and Backfire I think, due to general lack of or low quality posts. Thoughts, guys?

I agree. Can't do much at this point, but as Chris stated, it'd be better if 3/4ths of the people actually posted, y'know.
But I just wanna play it right We are gonna get there tonight
Nobody agrees on a target. In a way, nobody expected to either. These songs have only started, cacophony galore. Who expects children to share, or animals to hate?
Nobody dies.
The Maestro sighs.
STARTING FROM NOW IT IS NIGHT. POSTING IN THIS THREAD IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED. Night will end Wednesday Morning, 3 AM, or when I have all the actions in.
So let's skip the news boy (I'll go and make some tea) Blood on the rooftops (too much for me) When old Mother Goose stops - they're out for 23
The songs reared up again after an ugly night: many of them had had little sleep, wary of the malign forces in play, some of them had had none, concocting plans in the dead of night.
The dead of tonight was Lilac, a song of...
A song that sounded like...
Nobody remembered. Lilac wasn't just stopped, or murdered, his very essence was ripped apart at the seams, nothing but empty notes plinking on a cold floor like ice, shreds of sheet music gone and devoured.
Trace amounts of blood and a little less noise were the only things beratting his death.
Kchhhhhhhhhhhhh.
Lilac was a song, but no other information is obtainable from his lack of corpse. He is however dead and out of the game.
It is now Day Two, you may all again speak and cast your votes for the lynch that will occur Saturday Night Fever, 8 PM GMT.
What the hell, no one died yesterday? I guess we actually need a majority to lynch instead of the person with the most votes being lynched by default.
With 12 people, I'd only assume 3 mafia. I don't really know what to think, but I'm kind of suspicious of Mashley for conveniently leaving out foulcoon in his list, who only posted once right at the start. Backfire IIRC posted quite a bit as well. I'm also kind of suspicious of foulcoon for being inactive, but then again I've been inactive also o.o (I was kind of busy and the day ended before I got back)
anyways i'm most suspicious of nohitter and mashley at this point.
nohitter for being scummy and for there already being a tracker, and mashley partially for the original reason, and also for claiming he picked something most would perceive as town (70s pop or w/e).

I'm going to believe in NoHItter and dkun for their claims. NoHItter's rebalance and the edit on dkun's role PM seems like a convincing alibi. Normally, there wouldn't be much of a reason for the mod to edit their role PMs.
I'm actually buying Chris's accusation for pieguy. He has done it even though multiple people have claimed to be a bad reasoning and I can't really see pieguy just forfeiting his voting style out of sudden.
Kind of surprised how people did not accused my lack of activity yesterday, while accusing Backfire and pieguy for their lack of activity. I'm getting an idea that they are making a foundation for an easy lynch. I may be over reading it, but I just don't understand why I was not the part of the list

well, we'll find out about both of them as soon as wojjan gets on
I haven't elaborated on anything because I'm waiting for both the dkun kill to process + wojjan to reply to my pm to make sure I won't get modkilled for sharing
