OT: SPF mafia round 7 - Return to Salem

Re: OT: SPF mafia round 7 - Return to Salem

Can someone explain why Aman is dead too? Did Aman kill ZY then die?
 
Re: OT: SPF mafia round 7 - Return to Salem

Good point Naz. Still, until we know if the doctor can stop both night kills simultaneously, then it's a bit of a moot point.

There is another issue coming up right now. Liquid has claimed to have seen Lister active last night. Lister knows what his role is, and each of the rival groups knows if he is a member of theirs or not. He's obviously not a member of both groups. So why shouldn't one or both of the groups go after him tonight? As it stands, there is a 3 in 8 chance that he's one of our side's power roles. So a 5 in 8 chance that he needs to be lynched. The same goes for the person who's name I have. For that reason, I'm not as sure I want to reveal them just yet. I'd like to see some more opinions on the less discussed people first. If they are generally considered to be in the family, I keep their secret. If it seems more important that they die, I out them. Make sense? I'll be going to work soon, and likely posting again after I'm home, so about 10 hours from now, maybe a little more.
 
Re: OT: SPF mafia round 7 - Return to Salem

First of all, a warning. A few people have tried arguing interpretations of the rules. That just won't do. I can't look into your pretty little heads, so it has to be you who ensures that you comprehend everything. I believe I've been clear enough about what you should do if you are unsure about the rules (check version 1 first, contact me when still in doubt).

You cannot expect me to know how 20+ different people will interpret the rules. And you cannot expect me to repeat everything 20+ times just in case the previous 19 times weren't good enough for someone.

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

Does this means that there is not total/2+1 rule? Does this also mean that if no one votes except one person that that one vote will count as most votes and still result in a lynch?

Correct on both counts. As the first version of the rules clearly state, there will be a guaranteed lynch each day.

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

To be honest, I'm a bit dissapointed with the line-up-the-drinkers idea. Whether or not it's a good idea (I have my opinions on that, but sharing those seems a bit unfair :wink3:), does anyone honestly believe there'll be any shred of fun to playing that way? It's pretty much asking for a very slow, very long game.

Either way, I won't shoot it down just yet. If both teams target the same person, the doc can save him from both nightkills. For now. But I can imagine that some people might object to the possibility of spending the first few nights doing nothing but wasting drinking abilities. Anyone who feels the game would not be fun that way should PM or email me about it. If I receive more than a handful of objections I will change the ruling on the doc tomorrow.

EDIT: by "tomorrow", I mean at the start of the next game-day.

Questions?

Sir Lister of Smeg said:
As to suspicions, as of yet I haven't many. I must say I find the notion that someone drunk spotted me a bit odd. If Liquid would truly have seen someone while drunk he'd at least seen that person double. Mentioning that drinking only later as an afterthought, after first blaming these two deaths on me without any explanation comes over quite suspiciously to say the least. Nevertheless, it doesn't seem enough to point a finger at Liquid yet. As for now I'll see what other suspicions arise. Naz's plan is interesting, but as some people pointed out still with some holes.
If he didn't get your vote before, reading his first post into this thread should be a sign for you to do it immediately.
1) He said that's not enough for him to point a finger at me. There is no reason for a pro-town role to lie the first day like this, but liars need killed ASAP. If he truly was innocent (which he isn't), then he should have flat out called me a liar and thrown a vote my way. He did neither.
2) He lies in his own post. He claims that I blamed two deaths on him without any explanation. I have not once posted in this thread that he specifically killed Zhao or aman. That's a guilty response to my vote if I've ever seen one.
3) He posted a generic negative comment about Naz's plan. He's mafia and doesn't want it to work.

VOTE LISTER.

Because leaving him alive will make him a smokescreen the following day and an easy lynch target. He needs to be removed from the game ASAP. The town cannot rely on one of the mafia groups to do its dirtywork.
Also, back to Nolecub.

1. You say that I give no reasoning behind my thoughts on Naz being mafia. Just read the umpteen posts ahead of mine that throw suspicion his way.
That's a blatant admission to following the pack. Non-thinking sheep behavior (if you're a townie) is poor form. More likely though it's mafia behavior trying to remain in the middle of things.

2. How is me calling out Naz any different than you calling out Smeg?
It's very different and everyone should be able to see that. I saw him last night and therefore have at least the odds on my side. You just have wild first day speculation.

At least Naz has posted something to call him out on. You have branded Smeg, who still has yet to enter the fray.
Read more posts.

3. Just like I called you out on Day 1 of the last game in Comm forum. I do recall that I was right about that also.
Logical fallacy. If you were mafia one game, you *must* be mafia this game!

5. How exactly is placing my vote on the first line of my post sneaking? Again, you are who I want to know which side of the fence you are on. The only way to know this, is to have you lynched. Again - my first post of the new day will be 2 words: Vote: Liq

You need to bold your vote to count.

I am willing to sacrifice myself for the good of the Don's familia....are you?
Read my second post.
 
Re: OT: SPF mafia round 7 - Return to Salem

Looks like I'm late to the party.

Although I like Naz's plan to coordinate the townies, and I feel it is within the spirit of the game for the townies to work together (the mafia get to work together, why can't we?), I think it would make for a boring and calculated game. So, if that's what we want to do, okay, and if not I'm okay with that too. Sometimes the random finger pointing and arguing is the best part of the game :grin:.

Although my trust in Liquid_Evil has been shattered after the previous community mafia game, he makes a good arguement and has risked himself early this game. His accused does not seem willing to deny he was active last night, or to give sufficient explanation at this time. I see no reason not to believe him, and if he happens to be pulling the wool over our eyes it would seem to be an easy lynch tomorrow. So:

Vote: Sir Lister of Smeg

Have we ever lynched a 'bad guy' the first day before? Let's hope we can turn the tide early this game.
 
Re: OT: SPF mafia round 7 - Return to Salem

How is this mafia-like? Because I pointed out something that no one else seems to be talking about? Or is it that you are worried because someone named you? For right now, I am more interested in Liq's confession and who killed Aman than I am in trying to come up with some over-complicated system to discover mafia members which seemingly has too many holes in it and has the potential to do more harm than good.

To me, blindly reading a post and then making a silly comment like yours is more mafia-like than anything I have seen so far.

Stop trying to argue it. First night kills are random (or a try to set someone up, if there has been something going on pre-game). Easy as that. Probably true for 2nd night and maybe 3rd night kills too. ''Oh my, why did they kill aman?'' Gee who cares, there has been NO game up to that point, NO leads and NOTHING to indicate to pick one above another. Same story for zhao.
Trying to argue the point however is a nice smokescreen to pull up. ''Gee guys, let's look this way for a while so you're at least not looking in another way..''. Also, ''making a silly comment = mafia'' is an OMGUS. You think I go around randomly quoting people and say it's mafialike?
---

Thy: 2 anti-town factions, 2 kills, aman's faction targetted zhao, the other faction targetted aman.

Re: OT: SPF mafia round 7 - Return to Salem

@ Liq - My "vote" in the last post was unbolded intentionally. My vote still resides with Naz at the moment. I haven't done a vote count, but if Smeg is lynched and proven to be anti-town, then you will have gained my confidence.

And it is not speculation on my part. I want to know why you were championing Naz's plan, which I believe will not work in the favor of the town.

To win this game, you're going to need to start reading more of the posts.
Liquid_Evil said:
I also agreed openly with Naz, not because I believe his plan is fool-proof, but to see the opposition to it.
It would take a brazen mafia member to announce ~7 posts worth of game exploitation plot in an attempt to stifle their own plans. Also, Muzzz's appearance into this thread should have been a huge clue that Naz is on the level.

~Now back to the Lister issue.
Either Lister's activity was due to him being a mafia, not due to any other possible activity confusing me. Or Liq is trying to get of the hook of lynching/murdering by stating that he is a towny that have used his ablitity.
I haven't been forced into a corner. There was no risk of me being lynched when I came forward (and I still don't have a vote to my name). I'm not trying to get off of any hook.
Liquid has claimed to have seen Lister active last night. Lister knows what his role is, and each of the rival groups knows if he is a member of theirs or not.
Not only did he not explicitly state that he wasn't out last night (so any doubters can infer that I am right about that issue), he also makes no hints at a pro-town role in order to save himself from a lynching. Instead his post seems apathetic. There's not a whole lot he can say now after his couple appearances in this thread that could change my mind about his role. He's an idle mafia member pure and simple.

Here's where I stand *currently* regarding people's roles:

Most likely townie: Naz
Probably townie: Sint, Goltar, Jason
NCP: Thyiad (posts need to be of more substance or she needs to die soon)
Likely mafia: Nolecub, lukin
Definite mafia: Sir Lister of Smeg

Great. I'm a car-park.

Added Serdash to my list of people that need to die soon.



 
Re: OT: SPF mafia round 7 - Return to Salem

After reading the discussion that has taken place since my last post, nothing has swayed me from giving Liquid a chance on this one. I do not see what he would hope to gain by revealing this early unless he had some solid info. So in an effort to see where this leads us:

Vote: Smeg

If Liquid is wrong we can deal with that tomorrow. I don't really see any other solid leads we have to go on right now. I still don't believe Naz is anti-town.
 
Re: OT: SPF mafia round 7 - Return to Salem

My unofficial count thus far:

Smeg (8) - Liq, Serdash, FBZ, Jaedhann, Ray, Naz, Sint, Bob

Naz (2) - Thy, Nole

Thy (1) - Merlin
 
Re: OT: SPF mafia round 7 - Return to Salem

Also, Muzzz's appearance into this thread should have been a huge clue that Naz is on the level.

Not really. See, I don't care if Naz is a townie trying to sell an honest plan, or a bad guy trying to sell you a way to waste your abilities. For all intents and purposes, the squid could've come up with it. The only thing that matters to me is whether or not that plan will interfere with the fun.

There are a few things you could validly infer from my decision. Naz's allegiance is not one of them.



 
Re: OT: SPF mafia round 7 - Return to Salem

@ muzzz - welcome to my world. :unimpressed:
 
Re: OT: SPF mafia round 7 - Return to Salem

Regarding the aman-ZY kills, the two have an obvious rivalry, and aman telling his group to NK zhao is no surprise. And after his sneaky playing last round, it's not a suprise that the other group wanted to target aman either. I'm not gonna bother reading into these just yet; maybe when there's fewer players around and more kills have been made we can actually deduce something useful from these kills.

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

It was originally just a bandwagon vote, but after more posts by both accuser and accused, I'm going to stand by my vote for Smeg. I'm trusting Liq right now, but if Smeg comes up townie, I'm sure we'll all turn the vote on Liq.

As for Naz's plan, it still has it's holes, but I'll help out to see where it goes. As far as muzzz and others thinking that this could take away some of the fun: Look at all the arguing that's going on now. I'm still having fun reading all this. And the factions still have to do their best to screw it up, so even if it does/doesn't work, it'll still be fun.

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

Something else for the townies to keep in mind: if we start a lynch on a mafia member, the cops are going to jump right in on it (if they can lynch-kill an opposing faction member, it's one less NK they have to worry about). So just because someone voted for an outed mafia/cop, doesn't garuantee their ... townie-ism? township? whatever.

Re: OT: SPF mafia round 7 - Return to Salem

It's the name of this game fried... Muzz has made it iron clad in such a way there are NO guarantees whatshowever. No cop to sniff out roles. Even voters for the mafia could be from the other faction, and thusly not pro-town at all.
 
Re: OT: SPF mafia round 7 - Return to Salem

Crap. We need a new drinker for tonight. I'm one of those who misinterpreted the rules and didn't realise the abilities had to be chosen before the game starts... so I've got myself lumped with 'Stay cautious'. Muzzz is refusing to fix the ****-up.

Doh.

Volunteers?

PS: At least we've achieved an eventful first day this time :grin:
