Re: Roles of Madness. Mafia Thread
I wasn't familiar with Lynley but I was with google, so I googled Lynley. Hard to ignore the first post and 5 out of the 10 on the page page being about an investigator. If that were the only thing, I wouldn't have claimed.
Another reason is that I wasn't exactly hiding my intentions. I did some fishing of those talking about cops of fishing for cops for talking about those fishing for cops. I think I talked about the investigation altering dream more than anyone else. I wasn't intentionally breadcrumbing, yet, many signs were pointing to the same direction. As townie, these are things I look at to decide if a claimed cop is telling the truth and if I'm mafia, help me find the cop to eliminate them.
Yet another reason is the profile tracking. That just bugs me. He showed he was willing to keep track of details such as who sends PMs when. Who reads PMs when. Who is looking at the thread. Who is replying to the thread. Not only that, but he gives someone else the idea if they didn't have it already.
All told, a combination of three things made it easier for mafia to detect my role. One was of my own doing but Sathoris provided the other two elements. In the end I decided to claim and hope for the best rather than be night killed and see scum claim cop.
In case anyone is interested, I didn't look up Lynley until the night phase. Had I realized what Sathoris was talking about yesterday, I would done several things differently.
Ok, I guess I'm not familiar enough with this Lynley technicque and googling it came up an inspector of mysteries. So basically because Sath was tracking your activity he somehow knew what your role was? I guess I don't understand and if you don't mind explaining that would be really helpful. I'm not sure how revealing at that time really helped unless you felt that you would be targeted since Sath apparently knew who you were.

Nice take. When mafia have day talk, they tend to post less in the public thread. Mafia having night talk doesn't mean they aren't talking, just that they are talking where town can't see. I wonder who was absent and who was quieter than normal. I'd bet all the lint in my pockets against all the lint in anyone's pockets that multiple mafia were hiding last night.You know, your first line is the exact opposite of what I thought would happen during a night phase. Since mafia always have night talk ability I was expecting that those who did not post during the night phase were more likely to be mafia since they would not want to get involved in a situation that could get them trapt even before the next day phase begun. Obviously people can have different opinions but its definately and interesting take.
Not again.I can say that it's a completely new role to me, and I couldn't find it in mafiawiki or anywhere.
