I'm sorry for the inactivity but there are a couple reasons for it.

1. Bro home from college and just doing other things.
2. My normal computer is in the shop and I'm using my old tower which is a pain to work with at times.

Anyway, I agree on the pseudo-voting system to avoid the incident on day 1, but only as long as people will treat a HoS on them like a vote. Without the feeling of being threatened, which is a way voting can be used for scum-hunting (basically the whole point of RVS), pressuring will be harder. So hopefully NoHItter gets my message when I put my HoS on him.

Reason being that he has always felt odd in my gut to me, used to think it was an aux feeling, but now it seems like he's scum.
He seemed to be the first to really jump on Mashley and he was also suspicious of animask, and I think the only reason why he tried to defend his unvoting and stopped pushing on animask is because he realized they were lost tangents and further pushing animask would be suspicious. WIFOM I know, but I think it's probable.
He also seemed to be trying really hard to justify his questionnaire during day 1 (explaining it multiple times), which the questionnaire by itself wasn't suspicious to me, the over-defense (IMO) of it seems like a scum tell.
He seems to be against WIFOM even though it's an important part of the game. Without WIFOM, there's less to go off of.

I just went through the whole thread to dig up dirt on NoHItter, found more than I expected, no wonder I had that gut feeling for him.

Incidentally rust, what are those "dirt" you mentioned?

Another clarification then about my vote on Mashley. (Hopefully final)
1) Yes I suspected him merely because of my gut in the first place, but...
2) What animask said "He is trying to fit in too much", convinced me that Mashley was suspicious. It also seemed to explain why my gut was pinging on Mashley. It was also the reason why Ph0x switched his vote.
3) After I voted Mashley, I realized what I did was wrong.

Ahh crap. I forgot that since the votes are permanent, claiming when you are about to get lynched is useless.
Next day I suggest we really go through with a pseudo-voting system before actually voting to give leeway for any changes in suspicions

Basically all of what I mentioned about you in my previous post. Stuff you did or said that I found incriminating.

When I read this post in context (both when it was posted and through my re-read), it seemed more like you were talking about claiming when one's about to get lynched. The post didn't seem to have to do with your vote at all.

I'd like to hear other people's thoughts on the whole rust and NoHItter possibly being mafia.

and it's fine if you all wish to question my opinion on it as well~

If I feel less lazy after I get up tomorrow, or if I still feel this lazy but someone has posted the links to D1 and D2 start.

I still haven't got any posts about suspicion against rust45

and animask, you didn't post anything about rust45 on your last suspicion list (or similar to) for some reason.

I knew I was forgetting something...

rust45, all I can see is that you're being slightly informative, but you're not really accusing anyone of doing anything.
Not accusing people could be a way of having yourself from sus(s) instead of lurking.

Found this.

If I was mafia, I wouldn't even kill him, as when I'm mafia, I go for those who did participate as much as others, that way I get get someone who was slowing down the game, and possibly an aux role who was trying to go noticed. Ph0x did not meet my conditions for a night 1 kill.


Opposite of what the mafia actually did. (The "possibly an aux role" part could mean me. You were thinking of NK Ph0X or me.) Then again,you must have thought about what would happen NK the person slowing down the game. The good townie player would be able to find you out (if you were mafia). Why take out the bad player if you were mafia? That seems more like what a townie would think.

There's more to mafia than winning IMO. As a townie there's not really anything you can do to make it fun (espcially in small games like this), but as a mafia, killing good players will make it less interesting. I dunno though, I haven't actually been mafia in a game so I don't know if doing this is really that great of an idea.

But if you don't play to win, its not really as fun. I could probably make the game fun on the townie side ( I think I have. ) Also, even
if you're not playing on the mafia side, it helps to think that you are. Personally, I like small games (around 10 or less) but I don't have much
experience in mafia, so I'm not sure what bigger groups would be like. There's probably less at stake in bigger games, because if one person
is eliminated, it doesn't usually make a huge difference as it would here.

If you really are town I'm voting NoHItter then...cause he doesn't seem to be anymore willing than you to roleclaim. x:

That said...probably have an idea on who will be lynched depending on the next day.

FWIW, It's useless to roleclaim.
animask claimed Doctor.
Mashley was Cop.

All other possible roles now are either Scum or Vanilla Townies.
And speaking of which, I am a Vanilla Townie.

I absolutely have no idea who scum is right now.
I now have a tied feeling between 0_o and rust which shouldn't be as there are only two mafia.
I won't be around in five hours, so I'm going to vote now.

Among the three, I think rust is most likely scum.
My reason is because he bandwagonned on me with his HoS. (and my gut, but the second reason isn't accepted, isn't it)
IMO, rust is also trying to fit in with who is currently suspicious. His current attitude seems like osmeone trying to blend in/ go with the flow.

0_o is next. I can't say much about him other than my gut and his playstyle is somewhat different from the previous game I hosted.

Vote: rust45

If we mislynch today, it will be Ly-Lo tomorrow if the Mafia successfully kill. That would leave it to 3 town : 2 mafia.
At that point, I would suggest that town not vote anyone yet. Wait until there is a solid and general consensus. If by any chance, any one town submits a vote on a fellow townie, the mafia will just bandwagon to win.

I have a feeling mafia will kill whoever has been most supportive and active (unless they kill doctor)

The reasoning on rust may be very vague but right now considering with all of the time left (plus I have work in about an hour)

I have no choice to vote on rust.

his..."odd" choice of wording leads me to heavily question his stance in the game and his posts urk me anyways. (unlike animask and Player Q or even NoHItter who even spent some amount of time with their opinions and posts.)

It was nice knowing you in this game...

@NoHitTer thanks for doing the math.

I think I'll be able to HoS rust45 for now.

I'll be waiting for other votes/HoS's first.

Day 2 sure was interesting now.

Also, iirc bmin's going to korea soon so he might be afk for a day or something.

DxS voted rust45 by the way


*sigh* I guess there are really anything to be analytical... my gut is saying rust45, but if we are voting rust45 for inactivity, Q and 0_o should also be on the list really... My reason why I'm getting the hunch of a scum is that he didn't cease down to attack NoHItter even me and NoHItter posted an evidence that it was NoHItter's mistake (duration between a vote and the post was 10~20min only if I remember). So....



HoS on rust45. If nothing turns my attention or convincing, this should be my vote

And wow, never thought of that. This is really dangerous indeed... we should come up with some opinion list or questionnaire so we can have everyone to post and not waste times like Day 2


And DxS, why am I getting the feeling of a bandwagon from you? I'm asking this leaving the friendship behind us at the moment (this is a game this is a game this is a game)

Hmm, well DxS COULD be simply deepening his cover, but I'll admit that I forgot to take that into consideration so I'll revise that statement:
If NoHItter turns town then rust45 is most likely mafia. Not sure who his partner would be, but I'm thinking either DxS or Q.
Though it looks like rust45 is kicking the bucket anyway so that scenario is likely moot.

If rust turns town, I am almost certain DxS and No are mafia
If rust turns mafia, I have no freaking idea what to think. I'd probably have to do another readthrough..

Well, just like yesterday, there basically two people on the chopping block, however, it seems more likely that one is mafia this time.
With that said Vote: NoHitter as I certainly want to survive and not have the town on Ly-lo tomorrow. I've already explained my reasoning and I just want to say that if I do get lynched, don't automatically assume NoHitter is mafia, as he said, one mis vote and mafia will bandwagon.

Oh yeah, I suppose I should say I'm townie, just as NoHitter claimed.

Yikes bmin, way to get edgy on me all of a sudden eh?

Read my post carefully from earlier and note the odd wording of "rust's sentences and phrases" I missed a bit the past couple of days but hey. I decided to go for rust because I reread the day 2 portion, carefully examined everyone's posts and ideas but rust stood out to me the most as being "scummish" so heh.

Vote Count:

rust45 (4) - NoHItter, DxS, bmin11, animask
NoHItter (2) - 0_o, rust45

Everyone was sure it was rust45, he just seemed bad. After a bit of discussion, some arguing, and a bunch of nothing...

*snap*

One of the executors had walked in while nobody was looking, snapped rust45's neck, and dragged the body out of the room.



Later that night...

"You guys screwed up again! rust45 has absolutely no connection to the victims, or the mafia. Remind me why we're letting you decide who to execute?"

rust45 - Townie - Lynched D2

It is now night, submit blah blah 48 hours blah blah.

In the morning, you find animask dead on the ground, medical supplies in hand. It seems like he was going to attempt to make sure nobody else died...

Unfortunately, he couldn't protect himself.

animask - Doctor - Killed N2

It is now day 3, with 5 alive, it's 3 to lynch. Deadline is 3 days.

No one vote until we have reached a general consensus.

Sigh. It's useless. I was so sure rust was mafia.

0_o:
The problem with faceman is that I absolutely have no reads on him on Day 1. My gut is telling me that he is scum, but what I see says otherwise. I think Day 1 analysis is one of the most vital analysis as scum had no chance of talking yet. At the moment, I don't think 0_o and DxS are a scumteam - 0_o basically HoS'd both me and DxS.

One odd thing about faceman is that he already placed a dichotomy before rust or me was going to get lynched.

I think this statement was a basis to vote the other in the next Day. Town shouldn't already limit themselves the previous Day. IMO those two statements seem to be a bases to vote the one who didn't get lynched. Thus I am suspicious of it.
Also I think I see a logic error somewhere. (If NoHitter = town, rust = mafia, then why did he not say the reverse if rust were to flip mafia?) Scum


DxS:
Since the start, DxS has been playing oddly. "Bluffing" bmin, etc. His vote on rust, after mine, seems to be just hoping on the bandwagon. Though since I think 0_o is most likely Mafia, then I think DxS isn't Mafia. Neutral

HoS: 0_o

Okay I'm a liiiitttlle bit sure now (just a little)

FoS on NoHItter and DxS

NoHItter seems to be defensive to DxS when claiming that he is neutral.
If these two are mafia, it'll only make sense (probably)

just my 2 cents

I posted those scenarios so I could have all of my thoughts out in the open in case I was nightkilled.

If you turned up town then the possible mafia in my mind would have been two of rust, DxS and Q. There's a 2/3 chance that any one of them could be mafia via random chance, and you turning town would have gave rust even more mafia points, so he would have been a safe bet.
Now if rust turned up mafia, then only one of you, DxS and Q would be mafia (1/3 chance). You and DxS would have earned town points for lynching him, but seeing as Q was also low on my suspicions list I wouldn't really have a good case against anyone.

EDIT: Spelling, formatting etc.

That was my read/opinion on DxS. I found him Neutral, because despite the suspicious things he done, faceman attacked him, and I though faceman was scum. Now that I don't quite think faceman is scum, DxS is now on top of my suspicions list.

I find it hilarious about NoHItter's tactics to FoS me without actually doing it.

I now have HUGE SUSPICIONS on NoHItter. Afterall, you were the one who made the wrong call on rust and I had equal suspicions on both of you. (Also, no targeting bmin mafia?)

Also, wouldn't mafia rather nightkill someone who could probably "have more of an impact on day 3 to attempt to lynch mafia?" Still believe you're underestimating town whoever you are mafia...

FWIW, you don't have to FoS someone to show you are suspicious of them.
Yes. My call on rust was wrong, but what he did scummy regardless.
Scumhunting means finding something scummy that someone did. rust did something scummy, so I thought that he was mafia.

Keep FWIW'ing me and that just makes you trollish, mafia's tend to target only one user cause they think that at this point that's a town since you have better odds.

I assume you mean that mafia tend to only target one person as they have better odds of having him lynched?
Well, I'm not mafia and the reason I think you're the only one suspicious at the moment is because who is acting suspiciously.
The second mafia can wait. Once someone flips scum, it's easy to find links between him and another person.
FYI I also considered faceman's actions suspicious, but he justified his actions and thus I didn't find it suspicious anymore.

Oh right, might as well answer that questionnaire from earlier:

[b]1) What is your preferred/ favorite role and why?[/b] Either vanilla townie or mafia. Townie because you can go all out without worrying about being nightkilled, and mafia because lying is fun :)
2) [b]Would you lynch lurkers?[/b] It depends on the situation. In big games where one can afford a few mislynches then I'm ok with cutting the fat so long as there's not much else to go on, but in smaller games like these it's a lot more risky.
3) [b]In lynching people, do you use your gut mostly, or do you analyze the situation?[/b] I find that I sometimes have trouble distiguishing the line
4) Do you believe in the usage of meta? (Basically using other games as a reference) Helps build character upon later games but usually it's not that important.

Because he's so certain that you are mafia and NoHItter indeed FoSed 0_o as well until 0_o defenced it back. Why don't you try to defence instead?

And I'm still getting a feel of bandwagon from your post because...
1. you did not HoS before voting (you were able to post before the lynch)
2. Your reasoning was loose ("The reasoning on rust may be very vague but right now considering with all of the time left", "his posts urk me anyways")

If you were unsure with your vote, you should have HoSed and waited for other's (or even rust45) to post their opinions. You always seem to be a bit in a rush whenever you vote :<

Just guessing that mafia is a combo of

0_o + Player Q
0_o + bmin
bmin + Player Q

if NoHItter's statement is true.

Hey, you left your self out
And it's pretty obvious we would have a combination of bmin11, 0_o, and Q as possible mafias if you exclude you and NoHItter out >_>;;

Why should I include myself if I don't see myself as mafia?

it doesn't matter anyways if you guys want to lynch me or if mafia wants to kill me.

I won't be winning the game anyways no matter what alignment I am.

End of story.

I just found out the next 24+@ hours are my last hours before the dead line. May we get an extension since it's an important lynch that would require everyone's vote (lylo state) ?

Sigh. Frankly I'm getting bored with this topic already, so I'm going to gambit. (If Town loses because of this, then sorry)
I'm going to place a vote on someone I think is scum. If there are no two consecutive votes for a hammer, then that means one of two things.
1) I'm scum.
2) The one I voted is scum.
(Well there is a third option that we're both scum, but it's too much WIFOM)
With this there is a 1/2 chance I hit scum correctly.

Quaraezha: I have no read on him. he doesn't post often and all his posts are in agreement to what others say. Neutral.
DeathxShinigami: I've already said my reasoning on him as to why I think he's scummy, but his recent posts seem to tell me that he's frustrated town. Neutral.
0_o: Replaced iMuffin and gives content. There's the issue of the dichotomy on Day 2, but explained it. Neutral.
bmin11: Townie feel. Lots of good content. Town.

Vote: Quaraezha
/me hopes gambit worked.

Interesting.

Well I think we are safe for now at least, the only way we lost is if both DxS and bmin are mafia, and I think bmin is a pretty clear town player (though if you aren't then seriously, bravo, you deserve to win this).

So assuming we haven't just lost, the following combinations are NOT mafia:
0_o + DxS
bmin + DxS
bmin + 0_o

I have some other things to say but I would like to hear what the rest of you think of this situation first.

Hunch on bmin's town

Leaves 3 others not including myself.

Will he die at night then mafia?

Will I get lynched?

Will we lose 2 towns if that happens?

Running some possibilities. Been wrong before though so really "anything can happen"

Leaning towards a more likely vote on Player Q or NoHItter however.

By the fact that there have been no other votes on Quaraezha by 0_o and DxS, it means my gambit paid off.
Either me or Quaraezha is mafia.

The fact that no one jumped on you means that one of us is scum.
Remember that one cannot unvote in this game - meaning that if town voted town, scum could easily bandwagon on the townie who got voted without the worry of the original voter unvoting.

You actually have a point, since there are 5 of us who are still alive, it'll take 3 to hammer.
1 vote from town and 2 votes from Mafia. Maybe they're just inactive atm (?)
or they haven't thought of that plan yet, iunno.

If we mislynch today, it will be Ly-Lo tomorrow if the Mafia successfully kill. That would leave it to 3 town : 2 mafia.
At that point, I would suggest that town not vote anyone yet. Wait until there is a solid and general consensus. If by any chance, any one town submits a vote on a fellow townie, the mafia will just bandwagon to win.


I see no reasons for holding my vote off at this stage. Q or NoHItter is clearly mafia and I would say, a mafia wouldn't have done the gamble. Thus, NoHItter would likely be a townie. This does not require more then common sense :<

Alrighty then.

Well both of your responses to this seem quite fishy to me:
-If I were in this situation I probably would be saying something something along the lines of "GUYS, X IS DEFINITELY MAFIA, VOTE FOR HIM OR WE'LL LOSE AUHFLADJHALKSHF". NoHItter just doesn't seem to be reacting to the information that Q is 100% mafia with much urgency at all, which, seeing as it's lylo does not seem townlike (please comment on this point though guys, I'm comparing it to how I would react but I'm not 100% sure that reflects how any townie would react.)
-Q seems reluctant to vote NoHItter even though it should be obvious to him that No is definitely mafia. He could just be a naive townie, but it could also could mean that Q is mafia and the fact that he should be sure No is mafia evades him since he has trouble putting himself into town shoes. OR, he is trying to protect his partner by not voting for him.

So yeah, not sure what to think atm. I think there's a decent possibility that both of them are mafia, but either way we gotta vote for one of 'em.

Why wouldn't a mafioso have done the gamble? It wouldn't have even been a gamble for the mafia - they already know who's town and who isn't.

Because the mafia could have just waited for the vote or have no lynch. Either way was mafia's victory road. I don't see how the mafia would want to take the risk. Of course, I'm not saying NoHItter would not be mafia when Q happens to be mafia, but clearly one or other is a mafia in this case. You may vote for NoHItter if you have doubt on him or think Q is a townie, but I thought Q was the likelier one and I voted on him



fuuuuuuu you are right how did I not see that dinvownvjmwimwilm shouldn't have played my vote right after I arrived from my flight orz

I'm not mafia.
If you're wondering about my "underreaction", I'm always like this.
You can check my more recent meta in MafiaScum. Although in that situation I was town and the mafia was false-claiming Cop and a guilty investigated on me in Ly-Lo. I'll be happy to give links.
(Ah crap I can't believe that I'm betraying my "don't use meta" answer, but it's kind of lose or delay the game now.)

So it seems it comes down to me though?

Unfortunately I'm going to do this.

Vote: Quaraezha

I would like to think that NoHItter is still also mafia but now all of the evidence we have now seems to be more towards Player Q if anything and either way I bet 0_o wouldn't vote for NoHItter either this late into the game so...

Who cares, it should be obvious and I'm too lazy (1) - LadySuburu


You were tired of this nonsense, and decided it was time to get it over with. As you were preparing to pool together your votes, NoHItter walked over to the box and deposited a vote.

"I vote for Quaraezha. I'm taking a chance here, but I'm sure he's mafia."

Time passed, it seemed forever before someone else spoke up.

"...I guess Quaraezha seems like he'd be a member of the mafia."

More time passed.

"I hate to do this, but Quaraezha has to go."

Quaraezha begins freaking out, he runs at NoHItter, intent to kill from his eyes. Right before he makes it to him however, a gunshot is heard. Quaraezha drops dead to the floor, and the same men who came in the last two times take the body away.

"It seems you guys actually made the right choice this time. We just obtained intel linking Quaraezha to the murders. You just might have made the right choice this time."

Quaraezha - Mafia Goon - Lynched Day 3.

It is now night 3. You know the drill.

You wake to find NoHItter's dead body, sitting against the wall. Nothing gruesome, just a boring death. How lame.

NoHItter - Townie - Killed N3.

It is now Day 4. With 3 alive, it's 2 to lynch. Deadline is in two days.

Judging all of this by timezones I have came to conclude that 0_o is the remaining mafia due to the time between Night 3 and Day 4 as towns could not send actions and night 3 would end depending on when the remaining mafia would send his action.

Holding my vote so at least everyone can say something before we make a vote.

EDIT: oh that's how you're playing it. I see.

Well I'm actually writing an exam in 15 minutes so I don't have time to go into details, but it looks like this is gonna be a DxS vs. 0_o showdown with bmin breaking the tie. Don't do anything drastic til I get back? ;)

Alright here we go. I was going to vote Q yesterday, and here's why:
Here are the possible mafia combinations after No's gambit on Q:
No + 0_o
No + DxS
No + Q
No + bmin
Q + 0_o
Q + DxS
Q + bmin

Then bmin's vote for Q eliminated the possibility of No + DxS and No + 0_o, since one of us would have hammered and won. This left:
No + Q
No + bmin
Q + 0_o
Q + DxS
Q + bmin

Thus the only possible way Q wasn't scum is if No + bmin were together, and my strong hunch on bmin being town left the conclusion that Q was almost definitely mafia. I only waited for DxS to show up before hammering so we could have a solid idea of where everyone stood on the final day.

Now I was fully expecting bmin to be NKed tonight since he has been considered town by pretty much everyone. NoHItter, DxS and I have been pointing suspicion at eachother for the entire second half of the game, wouldn't having the three of us in the final have been a better situation than having a practically confirmed townie? The only reason I can think of that he would keep bmin around is that he thinks he can use his relationship with him as leverage.

No matter the reason, I simply cannot see myself being convinced of bmin's guilt at this point. So bmin, if you are the mafia then again, congrats, you deserved it.

Mafia games end when there's no possible way (other than purposeful mafia suicide) the town can win. Unvoting is impossible. So of course, you know what this post means.

-----------------------------

"Based on my calculations, DxS must be the mafia!"

As 0_o went forward and voted, some masked men came into the room. At that point, bmin's face lit up with joy.

"You guys made it! They managed to get Q, but not me."

DxS and 0_o tried to run, but were both shot before they could escape.

bmin went on to enjoy a happy life as a rich mafia member... until his next adventure.

DxS and 0_o - Townies - Killed endgame.

bmin11 - Mafia Roleblocker - wins!

Mod Notes (more to come eventually?):

1. bmin's play was superb. I saw just two potential mistakes that I could notice at a glance.

a. bmin's first post D2. Almost gave away that he knew there was a doctor. Also funny since he roleblocked animask, who happened to protect Ph0x that night.

b. Voting Q so early on D3. It would've been possible to win on D3 assuming the vote didn't sway to DxS. However, this also solidified bmin's position as town in people's minds, so it may have been intentional.


2. I like the no-unvoting mechanic, but at least one player didn't. I would like to hear feedback from other players.

Not bad. I actually secretly suspected him a lot, since the Doctor thing.

I had no comebacks or any way of getting anyone to vote for him.

I didn't want to run on low sus(s), because of the risk.

I tried to protect him on the last NK, because I knew I would get NK'd anyways.
(jk, I just didn't know who was really mafia)

Being Mafia sounds easier D: I would've won too if I was actually mafia.

I'd like to note that this allowed for one interesting play which wasn't even considered at LyLo:

You don't need to hammer to win as Mafia at LyLo; with just two votes you have a super-high chance of winning, and NoHItter could have been using this to his advantage (if he was Mafia). Sadly, he wasn't Mafia, so the neat little plan (which no one, again, even considered) wasn't executed.

No-votes kinda ruined day 1, though.

Also, NoHItter, 0_o, and DxS (all townies) should have noticed the signs that neither Q nor bmin talked much at all at LyLo either day. C'mon; lurking end-game is classic scum behaviour!

I wasn't really playing the game after I died (just reading and not re-reading, building a suspicion list, etc.), but if I did, I'd prolly catch a lot of things that happened. Throughout Day 3 I was pretty sure NoHItter was executing that plan I spoke of, so I thought he was Mafia.

I'm not gonna go on about how I should have seen the signs and whatnot, I was stuck enough in the mindset that bmin is town that I wouldn't have been able to vote him over DxS no matter how carefully I checked things over. He played well and got us good. Good game guys.

Hey lets not leave Q out either, he did a pretty good job at staying under the radar. If it wasn't for No's gambit he probably would have made it to the end too.

We were thinking about that, but Q being a lurker made it really risky since he was an easy target to be bandwagoned ;ㅅ;



I expected to be a townie when I sighed up since this was my first time. However, LS went to sign two noobs to be the mafia >_> We were extreamly lucky if we consider Mashley's death + animask's partialy role-claiming. Well, it was part of the game and I enjoyed you guys coming up with suspicions and evidence to back it up.

My regret during this game was to kill Ph0X. Funny how I was so determinded to kill Ph0X on D1, but after doing so, rest of the days weren't as fun as D1 :<... He would have figured Q or me out at one point, but I learnt it was better to have some suspenses around >_>



Guys, it was a great game and I'm hoping to play another mafia games with you guys :D



EDIT: I also enjoyed the No-Unvote system. It gives some extra strategy for both mafias and townies. I also liked how voting was weighed heavily :>

This, and Q was lurking the whole game before that anyway. I honestly just thought Q was a clueless townie until the gambit.

Should have said my gut that bmin was mafia.
After my vote and bmin's reaction of "Sorry I shouldn't have voted", bmin pinged me as scum.
At least I'm glad that my gut finally worked on Quaraezha.

You were so goddamn lucky with your Gambit, NoHItter.
I would've gotten away with it too if it weren't for you meddling townies.
Me and bmin11 actually did plan to vote whoever got voted first in D3, but unfortunately, it was me.

And kudos to bmin11, for your FIRST Mafia game, you did so gosh darn well~

Just wondering though, did you guys not wonder why bmin11 was still alive and not Nightkilled until the end?
I was just thinking though, in town's perspective.

And being Mafia is just too much for me, I had to lurk and I'm afraid if I put too much details in my post, it might make me suspicious.

I love the no unvote thing, it helps me relax if I wasn't voted and I'm Mafia.

The thought did cross my mind. However since DxS and bmin have a connection outside the game, and DxS is just such a weird player, at the time I could kind of see DxS keeping him around for some reason that only he would understand. If it was NoHItter instead of DxS I might have been more skeptical, but then again it's all hindsight it's difficult to say for sure.

The timezone thing that DxS mentioned threw me for a loop too, since I didn't see bmin online around the time of the night ending.

I did let DxS survive the last night due to that reason. I often saw DxS dying off at D1 or D2. I just wanted him to see the ending >_>
And killing 0_o would have made myself look weird for the same reason, so I just killed NoHItter (apperantly, he had a hinch of a scumtell from me. Good kill for me)

Aha! That actually worked! I made my action on 2:00 AM and logged off as I saw the end of the night (animask was on at the time being)

This was me and Q's reasoning for Night Kills

NK1: Ph0X - To kill the biggest threat. Whatelse?
NK2: animask - A confirmed townie (Doctor). No good for mafias
NK3: NoHItter - His eagle sight...... could have been a threat (and apperantly, he did suspected me). Killing anyone else would have made me look weird as well



And by the way, is this supporter tag a prize for winning? I haven't received any PM of who gave it for me :?

Well uh

@bmin

You kept chasing me about the Day1 action I made and I couldn't erase it from all of you so from there I knew it'd be impossible to tie you as mafia so mentally I labeled you as town. Nice way to trap me yet still make me seem mafia at the same time. I do thank you however for continuing to save me from being NK'd though. Unless you knew that I could never make enough of an effort to get a vote on you...Eh....

GG.
