Re: City Mafia Game Thread
Yeehaw. I am alive
Vote: Pyrotechnician
Reasons not to lynch pyro:
He could have chosen the role to "steal it from the mafia"
He could have chosen the role cause he wants it.
I dont believe either of these to be the case. 1/1 lets make it 2/2.
Ok, first off, lets go back to day one...does anyone remember this post by Bad Ash himself...
This is a very scummy post to me. Noodle isn't 100% to have a power role and he isn't more likely to be town than ANYONE ELSE IN THE ENTIRE GAME. As stated in my previous post and Noodles 1 post, he is implying he thought about the game strategy and in which case wouldn't necessarily pick a power role for obvious reason.
Early off in the game BA said that Noodle could have thought about the game strategy and not chosen a "power" power roll such as cop/doc/etc. Now since someone else in the top bid positions (#2) actually did this hes ready to jump on top of him? I think you should try to be consistent with your reasoning, at least somewhat. Did I want the role? Yes, obviously thats why I picked it and since I was the number two pick it was highly unlikely not to get my choice. My reasoning behind picking the hider should be pretty clear, but I guess its not. Being an early picker, what is the chance that I would be night killed early on in the game due to the suspician that I would most likely be a power role? I would say pretty darn high. Being one of the first pickers if any of the surronding pickers were mafia, then I was pretty certain that I would be the first target.
Now I know people are going to say why didn't you pick this, or this, or this. Fine we all have our opinions, but I guess to explain the only other two roles that would actually survive night one were the doc, and bulletproof. Yes, the doctor can self protect and I would have done so the first night had I chosen it. But if I had actually lost the role (say on the second night) the town would have lost a very important asset, where as if I die with the hider role on the second night, the town wouldn't be losing out as the doctor would still be alive if someone further down the list chose it, someone in bid position 10 or 11 is less likely to be targeted by a night kill early on then is someone in position 1, 2, or even 5. Not chosing bulletproof was simply because it was a one shot, I rather have 50% chance throughout the game then be immune only once. The mafia not being able to choose the hider role was just gravy on top of everything else. The hider (or commuter, as it was actually explained to me by CG) is actually a pro-town role according to the site with the roles which I refered to when making my choice, so I'm not really sure why picking this automatically makes me scum.
Need to think on this. Mighta made a mistake in the early reveal haha. Would like to hear others opinions on the matter. It also doesnt help that pyro didnt vote for asrrin yesterday as well though IMO.
Overall, I'm not sure if this was a great choice as now the mafia now know any attempt at a night kill on you would be useless 50% of the time, so unless they really want to waste a night kill oppurtunity they probably won't target you (at least in the near future anyway).
Well I guess that clears Sathoris. :crazyeyes:
I'm not quite with you on the hider being a bad pick for a townie, on the contrary actually. I do agree about flub though, and I'm not sure how I feel about coju's vote above me.
Definitely my top-candidate for now. I'm not sure how useful/dangerous the rolethief is? I assume that's pyro's role now.
Or does it??! Could be scum killed by SK?!?! WIFOA!
No, it does not necessarily clear Sathoris, as one of the kills was most likely SK and the opens up the possibility for one of them being scum (although not for certain). And yes, I am now the rolethief if that was unclear.
PS: A question to everyone who did not vote for Asrrin. Could you please state the reason why you did not?
There is no complex reason behind this other than I simply wasn't here, this was my first post, which was at 10:41 (my time, day phase ends at 9:00pm for me).
I'm with you on this, no one is around, no discussion is occuring other than mostly useless posts (which I admit I was a part of but was trying to defend myself). For right now from what we have any vote is better than no vote, and we definately can't have two straight days of no lynches. I HOPE that others will get involved and when it comes down to it won't "wait" for others to vote. But for now...
Vote: Valhauros
A total of two posts and were almost at the end of the second day phase, others have at least tried to explain why they haven't been posting much, but nothiing from this one.
At that time, discussion was stalled and day end was only 11 hours away. I felt that the best pick at the time was at least a lurker vote if I did not return by day end. I then followed up with this post which was made at 16:27 (4:27pm if you don't feel like reading military) which was the next time I had checked in to the thread.
Hm, I see that from my last post that activity finally picked up and it appears that my vote isn't needed to secure a lynch today. I'm hoping asrrin posts before days end so that we can get a little more insight though.
By this time we already had 9 votes, and since I actually understand the game rules, we had a lock, there was no reason to change my vote.
Are there any other questions that I left unanswered that need to be addressed, because I don't want to make it seem like I'm avoidng something.
