Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread
So I shouldn't bother making cases on other people because less than 24 hours in D2 someone else's wagon is bigger. Coincedentally on someone you had a gut feeling was scum and failed to show up since? Unlike Drixx who's been lying, witholding information and omgusing non-stop. With my vote on Drixx it's 5 against 7. Calling it a deadend vote is ridicilious. By your own admission Drixx' lynch will tell us a lot more.
Crazy...
@gorny, why does my vote not count? I am allowed to vote with my injury.

Sath...most likely cause you had not posted it yet when I started counting. I'll add it in my next update.

vote: zemaj
we all know the reasons, if had acatually shown his face in this thread instead of hiding then we wouldn't all be voting for him, Drixx is the evil we know, Zemaj is the evil lurking in the corner.

Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread
I think you should re-read my posts. I never claimed to have any important role, only that as far as my own opinion is concerned, me being lynched out of the game is a worst case scenario (this was explored in depth late D1).
And I should point out that we all have been assigned a role to play in this game. I always try to do my best to fill my own.
Thanks for that. I've mostly accomplished what I wanted to early in the game, which was to get as many people talking and establishing longer posts as possible. These things will be valuable later because those of us who survive (hopefully me among them) will be able to compare later posts to something, instead of having a mostly silent first day or two which produces nothing of value.
I'm sorry if my strategy has offended anyone or seemed "dumb". I would just sit back and quietly watch and say nothing more so as to allow things to develop, but I have a feeling if I drop out of the thread people will freak out and assume I'm a baddie.
So I'm kind of in a catch-22. I don't want to be the focal point of the game, but if I stop posting I get killed. What should I do?
Oh, and as far as the codeblock goes. It really is simple. One of if not the earliest methods of encryption in existence. Anyone who has already cracked it (and I'm sure someone has) can probably share that it's laughable as a message, at best. Seriously, if I were to post the translation right now you would all just laugh at me and hurt my feelings.
It was done mostly on a whim on the assumption we have a "sheriff" role (notice I've put quotes around it each time, since I'm not sure what the proper word for it is. I learned it as "Sheriff"). Ironically, given what has gone on since I posted that block, I would actually want said role to disregard it entirely, as I don't expect it to be very productive for the town after all.

Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread
I'm predicting we'll end up in a deadlock due to the great amount of votes required and mafia throwing in sticks to our wheels if we split our votes. And a no lynch again. And yeah, I think he has to go, but not yet.

That's mean. I'll have you know that I'm not very evil at all. I'm in fact quite cuddly.

No offense to your personality or integrity drixx, it's just that you are #2 on the lynch train atm.

Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread
Well not a whole lot of others seem to be trying to solve it, or post about the code. And I probably should've just left this all alone, but too late for that now. Either way the only one's his code is interfering with now is you and me, and I assure you that me trying to break the code will not interfere with my interactions in the game.
Why does his message have to contain information only gained through a power role? We don't even know what the message is, so you're just assuming the info that is encrypted is gained from having a power role.
I've since looked up the cop role, and the cop role has several other names (with no mention of a different ability than a standard cop), one being sheriff. But maybe the sources I'm using is incorrect, so if you have other information on what a sheriff role could be, then do please enlighten me.
Again you assume the information he encrypted is gained from a power role, while we actually don't know anything about the message that is there. Either you're too quick on jumping to conclusions, or I'm too slow... so to speak.
Well the clues I meant is that the code is over 2000 years old (quick search on google reveals several methods invented over 2000 years ago). And that it's commonly taught in cryptography/cryptology classes might narrow down the search. I won't bother going into more details though. I'll do this on my own time and keep playing the game as I've done already.
There really wasn't that much talk about solving the code, and plenty time to lynch a better candidate. But the fact not everyone used their vote, and even more voted on different people and couldn't agree on a main lynch target is not just the codes fault. The obsessive questioning of Drixx probably contributed to the D1 results though.
I just asked you to trust me on this, but guess that ain't going to fly for you without more info. But it's still just the first part of the day, so I'll give this more time.
Go back to whatever it is you all want to focus on then. I won't post more about the code until I have some definite answers and won't distract the town further.

Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread
Conjecture: Bad Ash was night killed after a fairly inactive day. I suspect he was chosen because of his inactivity - he hadn't established himself as a high profile player in this round, and as such was unlikely to be protected by a doc-type role. Mafia members don't always go after the obvious choices.
I would caution against locking a lynch too soon - we have plenty of time to play with, and locking a lynch prematurely limits our flexibility to change if zemaj or whoever the target is comes in with a seemingly valid explanation, or if someone else makes a gaffe and inadvertently drops evidence that he / she is scum.

Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread
Well zemaj has remained silent, so I see no reason not to vote him. Still see his retaliatory vote was weak.
Vote: zemaj
@Gorny - Have you heard anything from zemaj to explain his absence?
@Asrrin would you mind clarify what scum tells you noticed on zemaj yesterday? Were there any others with Drixx yesterday or did you list them all in that post?
Drixx's quote added to give meaning to the next Malevolent quote.
For someone that commented twice on the need of day one lynch, I find it odd that he ended up on one of the smallest wagons.
His voting for corax also seemed odd. First he claims he needs more information to decide who to vote for. Then after voting repeats that he likes his corax vote twice and then later unvotes him. His unvote makes it sound like it was just an RVS but an earlier confirm vote makes it sound like he doesn't like RVS votes, (he actually says "RGS" not sure what else that could be other than mistyped RVS).

Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread
Yes my behaviour on day 1 was quite erratic, because i was full of first mafia game exitement, i just wanted to be involved.
Coming in with a much more tactical approach today,

Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread
Alright, This has gone on long enough.
If zemaj isn't going to show then he can have my vote until he does at least.
Drixx's behavior is improving and he is looking more like a confused townie than a confused mafia right now.
Vote: zemaj
I will agree with noodle that there is no reason to prematurely lock him at this point, the day is still young.
But is that all you have to add, Noodle?

Drixx's "If Gorny would assure me that my status as a vanilla townie would be revealed if I were to be lynched, I'd almost welcome it so that these poorly presented arguments against me could be sifted through after the fact and the real anti-town folks brought to justice."

Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread
Still trying to make sense of things, kestegs. I agree with others that Drixx has verged on contradicting himself, so I wouldn't be against a lynch there. Ankeli I find difficult to take real seriously in these games, as he's basically a rabid dog. He'll target anyone he sees, for no apparent reason.

Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread
Hey, you're hurting my feelings. I always have a point with my attacks! Perhaps downplaying me is your way of fending off my slight pokes in your direction?

Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread
I would say that verges on contradiction is pretty generous.
The downside to a zemaj lynch today is that he gives us a lot less tie-ins with his posts, we basically just get a vote history. If Drixx is lynched we get vote history and a pretty nice tie-in to a lot of people.
I think they are both still viable lynches, we just need to make sure that they don't divide and conquer again today.

Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread
I apologize. Perhaps I should have said, "Ankeli is a very aggressive player, and I don't always understand his choice of targets." Better?

Re: Witch Hunt: The NCIS Haloween Forum Mafia Thread
I know, it's just that he hasn't been around playing with us in a long time, and I could understand his malapropism being due to rust, if you will. Don't get me wrong, if the lynch train stops at his station, I'll be right there on board stretching a really bad metaphor.
