Re: Y.A.W.P's Warcraft Themed Pen 'n Paper RPG style Mafia Game Game Thread
i like this idea.
Vote: Nolecub
hey, we need to sacrifice someone and you volunteered yourself.
this is like trying to say there is a difference between bad murder and good murder. all murder is bad and in the case of forum mafia, lynching is good. we get info.
no, the gfames usually do not end that way. VI takes the win for themselves, game keeps going. whichever faction, Town or Mafia, wins the VI takes part in the victory....
iirc, that is. lately, my memory has been worse than that woman in The Notebook. SPOILER ALERT!!! but you are male... i doubt sitting thru a chick flick voluntarily is y'all's thing. "OOH! The Notebook! I TOTALLY want to see that because i enjoy crying!"
/sarcasm
seriously, most chick flicks are either depressing, a big ol' cry-fest, or REALLY *** and corny. SOME i DO appreciate. some i do not. The Notebook... eh, i guess i can recommend it, but i'd rather watch something funnier or better, ya know? idk what it is about sappy movies. they annoy the absolute hell out of me.

^ This. I believe, based on the wording he has used, that Goryani at least started out as pro-town, but with recruitment around, that can change at any time. Don't get blinded by your early reads.

Re: Y.A.W.P's Warcraft Themed Pen 'n Paper RPG style Mafia Game Game Thread
After many mislynches of unclaimed townies, including power roles, I can say with conviction that I would always prefer to hear a claim and make an informed decision whether to trust it. Our games are so fast that this is not always possible, I do grant you that.
That was how I read it though, but apparently I was wrong. Having never played WoW I did not know they were standard terminology, and so I probably attached too much importance to what you and Ankeli said. I found those terms in a wiki, so I know better now. However...
Fair enough. Now imagine this:
Player E - 6/6/6
I would call that a badass jack-of-all-trades. Remember that YAWP's first post mentions underdogs? I see no reason that the players would be so easily divided into three basic groups. You can be good in two or three stats, perhaps better than someone specializing in one stat only.
If the power role in question is being lynched, of course. If not, then they should not.
Besides, I was not only referring to information from power roles. The more people post, the more material you have to base an opinion on. Trends such as lurking become visible. On a first day, there is barely any information to support informed decision making. Part of the information why I did not vote Ankeli was apparently flawed, but I still believe the case on him was quite random.
There are two kinds of fake lists, and I would not admit to either one. If I was town and wanted to keep part of my information or theories secret, I would continue to do so for the good of the town. If I was mafia, I would still provide mostly genuine reads. This is what I in fact did last game while talking to YAWP during one night.
You really should not pay attention to any ratios in that list. I listed my impressions on every player one by one, and did not pay any attention to how many suspects I would end up with. I do not know how many scum there are, with recruitment the number is quite uncertain anyway. I would not skew my own reads by arbitrarily deciding how many suspects I want, and then trying to find that exact amount. Later perhaps when I have a better idea how many scum are left, but not this early. Information-wise we are still in day one, since there were no deaths.
I fully expect some of my reads to be wrong. What else would you expect this early in game? I am not clairvoyant.
You state this as fact, not like theory. That means you know something, and now everyone knows you do. Share?
You are ignoring something I thought was obvious. I noticed nurman was banned, but I did not know how long the ban would last. A longer ban could have rendered him unable to continue in the game at all, due to being unable to post for a day phase. That would have meant a replacement was necessary, and pointing that out was important. The relationship you claim to see between us is an illusion, and I have to wonder about your motives in suggesting it.
I do admit that you trying this on me after I did essentially the same as scum last game seems too daring. However, I also feel you are being unusually confrontational.
If you're going to call my list of reads filler, I'd like to hear why you think that. And I would like to know what the hell would be talking about the game, if not that.
A suspect is someone you suspect of something, in this case of being scum. What exactly do you mean when you say I obtained information thanks to your suspect list? The only part of it I referenced was when I mentioned how I disagreed with your reads, and it is natural that I should question your motives if I think your cases are bad.

Re: Y.A.W.P's Warcraft Themed Pen 'n Paper RPG style Mafia Game Game Thread
I've never seen this here, and it usually happens only in very small or special games. As in one setup I once saw where the town had exactly one lynch for the duration of the game, and they had to catch a single scum.
What is the deal with your self-vote?

Re: Y.A.W.P's Warcraft Themed Pen 'n Paper RPG style Mafia Game Game Thread
I've been looking back and I don't see any personal vendetta from me on Gorny this game. Are you voting on me based on other games, Gorny?
I didn't trust you in the Saw game, where I was admittedly wrong. But I don't trust you this game either and you've been playing the same mysterious character.
Hmm, that's a possibility.. Let me try it out.
Vote: Gorny
Ahh, no you're wrong. I don't feel emtpy anymore.

Re: Y.A.W.P's Warcraft Themed Pen 'n Paper RPG style Mafia Game Game Thread
Forgot to add. I'm willing to lynch Gorny dispite the chance he's a VI. Unless we come up with a better suspect in 6 hours time I think we need a lynch and Gorny's lynch does tell us something.
For lordaeron

Re: Y.A.W.P's Warcraft Themed Pen 'n Paper RPG style Mafia Game Game Thread
I dont think Gorny is the VI he is just Gorny being Gorny. Headed for disaster again unless something happens soon.

Re: Y.A.W.P's Warcraft Themed Pen 'n Paper RPG style Mafia Game Game Thread
What about Gorny being a tree stump?
If he is, then he has no worries. If he's Pro-town, I don't know why he would let us worry/debate this without saying anything. The best we've gotten was a /happy dance and a /happy happy dance.

Re: Y.A.W.P's Warcraft Themed Pen 'n Paper RPG style Mafia Game Game Thread
personally, i think Gorny is just being himself. and i think he knows something or has a grudge against Sathy. but that's just me.

Your Average WoW Host might not be able to make the end of the day people, so stop posting unless I forget to end the day for you all.

Not sure exactly what you mean, TC. Are you ending the day now? Is there a set time for the day to end?

Re: Y.A.W.P's Warcraft Themed Pen 'n Paper RPG style Mafia Game Game Thread
There should be just under two hours left until the day ends.
Could we ask you for a vote count TC? I could make an unofficial count, but Trionth had his theory about Gorny being a treestump, and one of his quotes could've been an activation phrase. Whether Gorny's vote counts should reveal if that was true.

Re: Y.A.W.P's Warcraft Themed Pen 'n Paper RPG style Mafia Game Game Thread
Sathoris - 1 (Gorny)
Ankeli - 1 (Bad Ash)
Nolecub - 2 (Nolecub, Leopold Stotch)
Gorny - 2 (Uraj, Sathoris)
Should be accurate. Posting it on the first page also.

Maybe I don't understand how a tree stump works.. I thought the role would just be immune to kills (maybe actions like investiagtions too?) It would kinda explain why Gorny hasn't really worried about votes on him, or me trying to figure out what he's doing.
Maybe I'm just too worked up with it, but I just feel that there's something more than "Gorny just being Gorny" :\

Theres the mafiascum wiki thinger for treestump. Now it doesn't seem like it fits because his vote counted. I thought the treestump was always immune, not a temporary thing.
