So basically, you're "accepting" Ekaru being suspicious because he's new, and that "newscum" wouldn't make the same mistakes as "newtown" (which Ekaru apparently is in)?

I used that playing the newbie card tactic on Mafiascum once when I was scum. Wasn't lynched and the guy who replaced me eventually won the game. That's why I generally don't consider being new as an excuse for being suspicious.

Also, the fact that he tried to cover up with a lie stating that he was "reaction fishing" is what I am suspicious of - not the actual act of "reaction fishing". He never did so in the first place.
Rantai
You know, I was more concerned about his reaction to animask. 'You suck, I'm new, therefore you suck. I'm new."

Of course 2 hours later he comes back and 'fixes it' either by his own accord or because he was recommend to by a day chat.

Pure speculation but the timing is fairly suspicious in itself.
Wojjan
I'm not accepting him being suspicious I'm saying that for newtown what he did is not suspicious.
NoHitter
What's the difference?
You're using the justification that he's "newtown" to say that what he did was suspicious.
So if he wasn't "newtown" you would find what he did suspicious?

Edit:
You're using the justification that he's "newtown" to say that what he did wasn't suspicious.
Wojjan
If he wasn't I wouldn't have lived it down this easily but some people are just idiots like that. If you want to lynch the poison doctor again like in PyP restaurant where Luna pulled EXACTLY this move, be my guest.
Rantai
Reverse meta says you are mafia for defending it!

In seriousness the content wasn't enough to move me from "eh what were you thinking?" however the chain of events after it made me perk an eyebrow (ESPECIALLY that 'fix' post)

I lead the lynch on Luna AND I HAVE NO REGRETS ABOUT THAT and you know why BECAUSE I WAS MAFIA ALIGNED IN THAT GAME

Pfft patterns. Reverse meta is the way to go. I don't even know what reverse meta is.

Anyway I still stand by my opinion in regards to timing.

I fixed it of my own accord because I realized just how damn stupid my post sounded. Anybody who realized just how stupid their post sounded would have done pretty much the same thing. ;P
Rantai
Yep I addressed that, however I can't simply rule out the use of a oh-so-common daychat that scum tend to sport these days based purely on your assurances.

Yep this is all just the usual day one stuff, someone inexperienced says silly things then everyone starts arguing over it etc etc, not that this is really a bad thing but there isn't much to read into it from someone who wasn't really involved in the discussions. Sorry 'bout that, I've been kind of focusing on Celebrity Mafia more than this game. Serious playing day 2 though, I promise!
Vote Newbie because bleeeaaargh they posted once and I can't meta them... No one who's actually posted is behaving scummily so far so lynching the lurker works for me.

That's a horrible reason to vote for Newbie. You're just voting for him because you don't want to vote off scum (which I see at least 2-3 people) RVS is obviously over and the discussion already started. You're probably too afraid to play seriously so you don't get lynched off.

@DxS You could at least add something to that because I know you're referring to someone else. Right now, I think NoHItter or Mashley could be mafia at this point. If I'm lynched, I'd go for NoHItter too.

Vote: NoHItter

Can you explain your thoughts on NoHItter?

Like I said, everything so far has just been the usual day one stuff. It's quite clear that Ekaru is a newbie (not saying they can't be mafia of course), and none of the following discussion is especially scummy and it mostly rational, if a little sensationalist. It makes no sense to lynch people who have been genuinely contributing, as the lynch on day one is always just luck based unless a scum seriously gives themselves away.
Rantai
Right 6 hours left and not a strong suspicion at this moment outside Ekaru.

Vote: -Newbie-

Doesn't seem much sense at first but animask didn't bandwagon on -Newbie- pretty much just ignoring him the entire D1.
Wojjan
wrong about NoHItter but I fucking told you regardless. raises the question how many other scum took a chance with the Ekaru bw? I'm gonna assume that in a 15-man setup there's 4 mafia, no third parties because that ain't Salvage's swag.
Wojjan
DxS that makes a surprising amount of sense but I actually would rather consider the people who DID misdirect from animask lynch to newbie lynch. Newbie was a lurker, stand pat while I look up who answered no to the lynching lurkers idea
Wojjan
I really don't like Mashley's ISO atm. Enough to warrant a vote for the newbie bw alone but put that randavote response in with it and mix it with a FEEL and LUCKY GUESSING I'm willing to lynch him bad.

ALSO: animask's prophecy FYI is probably just him getting lynched D1. Not reading more into that.
Rantai
Heh I knew Hitter was town (judging by his play). But with animask's flip everything I thought has been completely thrown off. Hrm.

Also sleep time~

Sorry for being lazy, was busy with other stuff. I'll try to stay on top of things now.

Anyway, anyone else feel like we should be looking at the inactives here? animask was lynched with 2 votes, it would have been easy as anything to push the vote onto someone else. I'm thinking the only way that could happen is if the mafia wasn't aware of the situation. Either that or they were afraid of looking scummy, but it's not like animask was the general consensus for the lynch here.

And yes I realize I'm being extremely hypocritical, but nonetheless my point still stands.
Wojjan
well
they were trying weren't they?
If they pushed the lynch on someone else active they'd need a good argument else they're just baselessly protecting a scumpartner which puts them in the limelight. Lynches on me or NoHItter, both being town, would just make people suspect animask more which is why they pushed on -Newbie- in order to not step on anything.

If Newbie was town, another mafioso could have easily put another vote on him and I'm pretty sure no one would bat an eye. Maybe I didn't read thoroughly enough, but I don't think there was enough suspicion on animask that saving him would warrant much suspicion.
Wojjan
The newbie lynch started like two hours away from deadline so it's probably just people not being online. And there was enough going on that day that after all the discussion a lynch on newbie would've made me bat an eye at least.
Wojjan
I mean I would've understood more of they lynched me than newbie

oh my god I was sleeping when the day ended but lynching mafia D1 was badass as fuck

also, a newbie lynch is stupid. he's only posted 3 times and people who are rushing a newbie lynch are scummier than the grease that allocates under an unwashed mcdonald's deep fryer

*BAM*
Rantai
Wow, nice description there.

foulcoon actually has a pretty solid point. After pointing it out I can see how badly Mashley was deflecting into a lurker. Huh.
Sync
thanks~

also can't tell if foulcoon has, for the first time (in a game we were both in), voted for somebody with reason before he was asked

he was mafia in most of those games

probably town or just fucking with my head

Mashley
It's not as if animask's lynch was a genuine consensus at the deadline; he had two votes on him for crying out loud. It simply came down to people not being active enough at the end of the day to actually discuss and form a consensus on who the most suitable lynch would be. I tried to start discussion, of course in the end animask flipped scum so it was a good lynch but it could have gone very badly.

Mashley wrote:

...You're conveniently ignoring the fact that when you voted for Newbie animask had 3 votes on him, not 2; in other words, animask had an extremely high chance of getting lynched at that point in time unless you managed to get votes off of animask. The 3 people who were voting on animask at that time clearly weren't going to go for Ekaru or NoHItter, so you had to bring up somebody else instead. Who else to go for than a lurker?

Combine this oh-so-convenient overlook with what foulcoon and Wojjan have already said and I'm definitely going with...

*Yes, I know you said 2 votes at the deadline, but what I mean is that you're ignoring what the votes were at the time you voted in favor of the more-favorable-for-you deadline votes.

Ekaru wrote:

Your point is? That still leaves a huge number who hadn't voted or discussed who we should lynch at at all. In a 15 person game 3 votes is nothing. There was little to no genuine suspicion about animask as far as I know, and those were just the typical votes that animask gets when he posts his usual gibberish so it was actually quite a shock when he actually flipped town. At that point, as always Day 1 there were no strong arguments for lynching anyone, so the best policy had to be lynching a lurker. I mean look at the final vote count, there were three other people with the same number of votes as animask, he only actually got lynched because of when the votes were cast.
Of course I'm not saying we shouldn't have lynched animask but you have to look back to Day One and think, was there ever sufficient reasoning to lynch animask? No, of course not. We got lucky.
Wojjan
Have you read Day one? I had superfluous reason to suspect both animask and nohitter.
Mashley
I-I skimmed it D:
Wojjan
well then read it for real, you were there for the most part so it only confuses me more why you wouldn't make a case on what had happened so far and lynch newbie instead
foulcoon
yeah Sync, I'm obviously mafia and fucking with you, which is why I left my vote on a mafia member instead of easily saving them by unvoting.

don't worry mashley, if you flip town we'll lynch DxS.

also Wojjan don't take credit for something I called a mile away okay. you didnt even vote for him!

p.s. Thanks whoever voted with me (ekaru i think).

From what I can see right now, DxS is suspicious to me. He was also voting for Newbie over animask in Day 1, with a pretty weak reason too.

Then he was suggested as a lynch by foul and claimed right there and then, as a motivator who targeted Ekaru. Ekaru's reply:

Ekaru wrote:

However, the only thing that doesn't go well with my suspicions is that DxS could have made much better claims than one that's easily refuted. Possibly roleblocked?

This line stands out to me pretty heavily. It seems like at the last minute of day 1, there was a fair amount of vote shuffling in a misguided attempt to avoid lynching animask via tied votes. DxS brought animask's votes to 3, then animask pushed NoHItter up to 2, then DxS unvotes and votes for Newbie instead, possibly hoping that animask going from 3 -> 2 would put him behind NoHItter in the lynch line.

For this reasoning I find all of Mashley, DxS and Rantai to be suspicious in different degrees.

Mashley for clearly attempting to save animask by persuading people to vote for a lurker instead.
DxS for his actions - pushing animask above 2 then back down to 2.
and Rantai for misreading the tied vote rules and bringing attention to the vote changes.

I'm quite comfortable with a Mashley lynch right now, so Vote: Mashley

well to be fair, even though DxS looks scummy, if it weren't for his vote + unvote animask wouldnt have been lynched...
Ivalset
Pretty sure he still would have. Animask was at 2 votes and at the top of the lynch list before dxs voted and unvoted.
Rantai
Huh. No.

I went through it carefully. Hitter was the first to 2 votes, not animask. This is based off an earlier game (ages ago, can't remember which game) where the mechanics worked via:

SPOILER
A is at 2
B is 3

B to be lynched

A is at 2
B is unvoted to 2

A to be lynched

Take that as you will. In the end it was a mod decision where my words hold no sway.
Rantai
And yes, I do know that was your argument against me.
Ivalset
Those were mechanics introduced into two's first mafia game but were changed before the game started. Interestingly enough, you were involved in the discussion.

viewtopic.php?p=1027357#p1027357

Discussion on the tied vote rule is on the first two pages.

viewtopic.php?p=1330260#p1330260 is where animask is solidified at 2 votes and never falls below that. At that point in time, animask is second on the lynch list - viewtopic.php?p=1330461#p1330461

Later, sync brings ekaru up to 3 votes but then unvotes, then animask unvotes ekaru and seals his own fate by bringing himself to the top of the lynch list. Furthermore, Nohitter drops to 1 vote viewtopic.php?p=1333209#p1333209 when mashley votes for newbie instead. When animask switches to nohitter and puts him at 2 votes, animask is still first to be lynched because he reached 2 votes before nohitter did.

Also, there's an example of how tied votes works in this game in the first post!
Rantai
The first post doesn't cover 3 to 2~ (it's a 2v2 situation)

Though thanks for reminding me where that discussion took place. It seems I got the original mechanic stuck in my head.

Well then, that's cleared up for me.

I understand that the voting was very odd last night. They could have really just focused someone so animask won't get lynched. However, one post animask has made gave me a pretty bad impression.

Roleclaim Doublevoter
Seriously I can't even defend myself against this... My day one vote looked scummy out of pure coincidence, and if people are so convinced that I'm scum there's nothing I can do. My second vote shows as anonymous and is cast through PM, which is weird since as I understand it's usually just cast in the thread through 'vote 2:' or whatever... I dunno about that though.
Mashley
inb4 scum jumps in and hammers me
Rantai
Well proving a double voter isn't hard I guess.

But that role can swing both ways so er yeah, not sure if I can believe you're town right now.
bmin11
Argh, the problem with double voters are that they can easily be a vote stealer. We could try to tie the vote up until N-1 with someone majority and make Mashley to hammer to see if the vote was stolen was double voted.
Ivalset
Well, if you're a double voter then vote for someone twice and we'll see it as anonymous on the votecount. That seems pretty easy to test.
LadySuburu
We can prove his claim, but we can't prove that he's town.


As a purely role-based look:

Anonymous doublevoter benefits scum more than town. (Is better as a scum role)

Open doublevoter benefits town more than scum. (Is better as a town role)


Now, with that being said we've had tons of roles in recent games that would generally be thought of as scum-aligned that aren't. I'm not sure that his claim being true or not should change anything about how scummy he is.
0_o
Yeah, even if he is telling the truth there's nothing about the role that really clears him. Worse case scenario we mislynch a scummy town doublevoter, which as far as aux roles go, is one of the safer ones to lose.
