Title: REVIVAL OF MAFIA: Game Thread (DAY 2)
Post by: Bardiche on December 04, 2016, 11:02:12 PM
RULES

1. Everyone should play to win.
1a. That doesn't give you a ticket to insult or otherwise be a ratty bastard. Any kind of conduct that breaches the forum rules will result in a mod kill.
1b. Pulling off gambits, even if they're dumb, still falls in the realm of 'playing to win.'

2. We agree to treat each other as human beings.

3. It is expressly forbidden to discuss the game outside this thread.
3a. It's allowed for scum to communicate in their QT.
3b. It's allowed to talk about the game with eliminated players or non-players after you have been eliminated. There's no Graveyard.
3c. I will create a Graveyard if half the confirmation posts request a Graveyard.

4. Each Day Phase lasts 48 hours. Each Night Phase lasts 24 hours. It is possible the phases end later, in which case the game continues until I freeze it. These extensions are because I am human and cannot always end a day on a particular moment.
4a. In the event of a hammer, Day Phase will end immediately. It is not allowed to post in the game thread after a hammer has fallen, unless you're the hammered and want to get out last words. Because you are dying, you cannot use more than 10 words as a final message.
4b. Night Phase can never be shortened.
4c. The game state has no effect on the length of either phase.
4d. Day 1 lasts 72 hours to account for JUST STARTING IT OFF LOL.

5. All posts must be writ in English.
5a. No posts may be writ during the Night Phase.

6. All votes must be writ as ##[VERB]: [name here]. Replace [VERB] and [name here] as desired.
6a. Unvoting is not possible. Voting someone will automatically remove all previous votes.
6b. It's possible to vote the mod, but I can never be lynched. Voting the mod has no negative consequences.

7. I may expand these rules as I see fit. Rules apply retroactively. That's to say: don't try to be a little shit and circumvent the rules through technicalities.


OFFICIAL SIGN-UPS:
1. That Old Guy
2. WindyKitsune
3. Raikaria
4. Schezo
5. Conqueror
6. Dormio
7. PX
8. Serela
9. L
10. BT

PLEASE POST TO CONFIRM YOU ARE ALIVE AND KICKING.
FUCK IT, THE GAME HAS STARTED. YOU HAVE 72 HOURS TO LYNCH A DUDE.

With 10 votes in play, it takes 6 to achieve a lynch.

I fail to see how I am making my messages ambiguous. I call a vote on me potential OMGUS because the playerlist called the player L; and also say it';s not worth voting for it; since that in itself would be OMGUS.

I don't see how I'm being confusing about that.

And I certainly do not see how you can prove intent.

What I do see if you avoiding my question.

text = page.read().splitlines()
verb = text[int(random.random() * len(text))]
page.close()

if verb == "Unvote":
    print "Are you drunk?"
    raise SystemExit()

print "%s: %s" % (verb, "Serela")

I'm crossing my fingers.

Something rubs me off about that response just now. (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1301433.html#msg1301433) The "are you pressuring people to wagon on RVS" question seemed like it'd go nowhere, and you're being more hostile than what that question warrants.

I completely missed that someone got on the person Schezo voted, which actually made his post totally normal, so it'd be really weird if I like... admitted the vote was actually entirely misfounded and then -left my vote sitting there anyway-

But swapping to a vote that was supposed to be slightly meaningful to a jokevote is ;_; Even if it pretty much was still jokevote phase.

Amusingly though, let's revisit that vote. Raikaria's right in that Schezo just kind of made a vague comment and avoided actually responding to Raikaria's vote on him.

Post by: Conqueror on December 06, 2016, 07:53:05 AM
I don't really see where Raikaria was being ambiguous, just a little overly wordy about something fairly insignificant (calling OMGUS on an RVS post, smh). Schezo, where do you see that?

I'm not inclined to think Schezo was deliberately avoiding a question since I feel like something that simple is so easily answered it's more likely he had to scram. I am interested in how he'll respond, I guess.

@Raikaria: About your initial question to Schezo, is there something scummy about encouraging wagons in RVS?

@Serela: Eh, but do you think that's scummy that he didn't respond directly? From my perspective, it looks like Raikaria asked Schezo a question (admittedly not very interesting but I guess it had potential to go somewhere), Schezo made a snappy and sarcastic comment in response and Raikaria got frustrated and is doubling down and starting to nitpick.

@Raikaria: About your initial question to Schezo, is there something scummy about encouraging wagons in RVS?

I'm just attempting to pick up any thread I can to move things out of RVS and start actual discussion.

My initial vote wasn't a big one. Hence why I only used #Query. I thought that would get across that my reason for voting wasn't major.

It's not so much the encouragement of wagons but the praising of someone else for joining it. Although; in RVS; that is a very very minor thing, it was pretty much the only thing I could see to go on to start the actual game. Apparently; it worked!

Then I just refuted the accusation that I was 'intentionally adding extra obfuscation to his posts' and pointed out Schezo avoided answering my question while at the same time finding the time to attack me. Which in my mind is scummy; especially when the question was so minor to start with.
Title: Re: REVIVAL OF MAFIA: Game Thread (DAY 1)
Post by: Schezo on December 06, 2016, 09:36:46 AM
Ok here's the problem Raikaria.  I said you were adding obfuscation to your post that to me, looks intentional.  Just like in Ace Attorney Mafia you just did stuff like call players by their names but not the official name to add an extra little mental gymnastic to just think about who you are referring to in your posts.  I consider it the same thing.  So you doubling down on whatever OMGUS garbage you're talking about from RVS after I gave a little quip was my just, "I don't really like this but, as you admit":
And I certainly do not see how you can prove intent. (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1301433.html#msg1301433) .  If I were to respond to your question when I gave my quip about your post we'd still be in RVS.  That you wanna come after me when you are right, I did not know your intent, is heavy duty reaching that looks pretty mafia


 Amusingly though, let's revisit that vote. Raikaria's right in that Schezo just kind of made a vague comment and avoided actually responding to Raikaria's vote on him. (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1301497.html#msg1301497)

Reaching to try and move the game out of RVS is pretty mafia?

Attempting to get the game actually moving so we have real material to hunt scum with is a scum move?

What kind of logic is that? We could stay in RVS forever if you'd like. But that would only benefit scum.

And please, I didn't know his official name. The player list just said L. If you're going to lynch someone over that; lynch Bardiche. I didn't know who L was referring to and just made a jokevote in my obligatory RVS post. If you think that's obfuscation fine. I don't think we're going to get anywhere talking about obfuscation anymore.

Oh boy dead bodies!

Normally it's the kind of thing you try not to say but to be totally blunt either of you can be saintified by "I was trying to end RVS" but that entirely defeats the actual purpose of trying to end rvs. When the game just isn't progressing otherwise we have to pretend someone actually looks guilty for something that's excused by RVS. If I give both of you a pass for that I'm nearly back to RVS and that would be awful. :I

As for responding to Schezo, compared to everything else going on, yes, I think it looked like an actual decent reason!

to add onto my second paragraph:It sounds bleh but generally it's fine because once the game starts moving, you can usually forget about the original dumb RVS shenanigans and move on to actual reasons.

Not playing is a breach of rule 1, playing to win. Strategic lurking is a permitted gambit. To preserve strategic lurking, I'm going to look the other way.

Tl;dr it technically breaks the rules but I'll tentatively allow it unless it becomes problematic.

@Raikaria: what's your beef with Schezo right now? Schezo clears up a bunch of things for you in this post. (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1301571.html#msg1301571)

@Schezo: actually, I'm curious why you were cool with Serela's vote in that post. He goes "Schezo just kind of made a vague comment and avoided actually responding to Raikaria's vote" and you just take that in stride.

@Serela: what I just said. You better not be voting Schezo for deflecting Raikaria's question.

Anyway, I'm just going to add things to my post as I think of them while I read the thread.

I'm just gonna say that Raikaria is intentionally adding extra obfuscation to his posts. Everyone else should play a bit before I go again though.
I really hate posts like this. It's basically super non-committal and it reads to me like "Hey look at this guy for me and make a case while I'm gone so I can jump onto it".
Makes me tempted to vote for Schezo on that basis alone.
However, as I read through, I see that Schezo actually followed through and made a post for Raikaria in #44 (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1301571.html#msg1301571). Let's take a look at it.
Ok here's the problem Raikaria.  I said you were adding obfuscation to your post that to me, looks intentional.  Just like in Ace Attorney Mafia you just did stuff like call players by their names but not the official name to add an extra little mental gymnastic to just think about who you are referring to in your posts.  I consider it the same thing.  So you doubling down on whatever OMGUS garbage you're talking about from RVS after I gave a little quip was my just, "I don't really like this but, as you admit":
And I certainly do not see how you can prove intent. (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1301433.html#msg1301433) .  If I were to respond to your question when I gave my quip about your post we'd still be in RVS.  That you wanna come after me when you are right, I did not know your intent, is heavy duty reaching that looks pretty mafia
I don't agree with the obfuscation point and, therefore, feel like Schezo is placing too much emphasis on a weak point to push an early wagon.

##Unvote
##Vote Schezo

Anyway, other people also exist. I think.
Actually, after reading, they don't.
I don't really find anybody other than Raikaria and Schezo interesting right now so I don't really have much to say about them.

Nah if Serela honestly wants to say stuff like this:

I still think the original vote was half-decent for the point in time that I made it. Both of you are just going "I was trying to end RVS!" at eachother, and I mean, sure, that defense does sort of work, but you two are still the most compelling thing happening all day so I'm sticking with it and the way the situation is developing is not changing my mind. Dormio's the only other person with a notable post and I actually agree with the whole thing, so.

In response to BT yeah I am :dwi: I think Raikaria voting him for it is fine and Schezo's continued case is that Raikaria's response is not fine and is scummy reaching, which I disagree with. I'm p.fine with my vote on Schezo staying where it is.

(https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1301571.html#msg1301571) Before just now you were talking about RVS stuff instead of Schezo's response.

So I'm supposed to think that Raikaria being under the impression a player's name was L when the signups list called him L, is reasonable to argue as him adding scummy obfuscation into his posts?????

Now that's what I call a stretch. :I

No, I don't think there was anything wrong with me voting Schezo over it.

Part of Schezo's defense was that he avoided answering for the sake of helping end RVS (And then Raikaria talked about ending rvs with his stuff too turning it into a whole thing), and avoiding answering was a good part of the initial reason I voted him, so yes, I talked about that.

Here's my lens: Schezo sees a wordy Rai post and points it out. It's not a solid argument, but I can see someone arguing that. On the other hand, you're voting him for the argument and for avoiding the dumb question, which are total duds to me.

If I'd vote Schezo, it's for accepting the way you presented his post (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1301497.html#msg1301497) in the first place, and for constantly inserting those "I admit it, you're right about ___" lines, which bug me for some reason. None of the things you're voting him on.

Ding Ding Ding,

I actually did stuff that was scumtastic and instead of getting jumped on for that (Dormio), which would be a genuine case from town, I get jumped on to get jumped on (Serela.)

Rev up the wagon.
Title: Re: REVIVAL OF MAFIA: Game Thread (DAY 1)
Post by: Raikaria on December 06, 2016, 09:27:59 PM
You know my most recent post before this one was made 5 mins before I left for work and I completely missed the relevance that Ace Attorney Mafia had.

I realized it after walking for about 10 mins and came here ready to smash apart Schezo's case on me because of the number of logical hoops he's using to connect me calling DaLetterEl merely 'L' to me being scum.

About 5 mins after that I decided that maybe even if Schezo's logic was bad at least he's attempting to scumhunt just like I'm attempting to so maybe I shouldn't get on his case anymore than needed to see how other people react.

Then I come back and read the thread and I'm almost dissapointed that I don't get to talk about me roleplaying Damon Gant and giving everyone nicknames in character in an anon game where I happened to be scum. Because surprise surprise; things happened.

And while I can see Schezo's logic in the Serena case; I think there is something even worse.

What's worse than jumping on someone to be jumped on as Schezo claims instead of jumping on someone for being 'scumtastic'?

Jumping on the case that is being made by someone being scumtastic. That's what.

##Save: Bardiche
##Kill: Raikaria


Srsvote

By Schezo's own admission he was being 'scumtastic' and PX just jumps on it without even explaining. It's worse to jump on a case that's obviously scumtastic than to jump on someone being scumtastic in my books.

I think that's a stronger thing to chase up than Serela. Although I'll be honest, but this just be personal bias from the fact that Serela was defending me. I also just got home from work and I want read over it a few times and wait a little just to see how Serela responds to this development before I make a proper judgement on it.

##Vote: PX

I could change this if I re-read and see something in Serela's posts that seems fishy, but I think PX has at least as much explaining to do as Serela.

Also glad to see we're not following MotK town meta of two townies slap each other silly trying to break RVS D1 and one of them gets lynched.

Yeah re-reading I'll say I basically agree with the points on Serela but I don't want to hop on the wagon just yet and think we need to chase up PX as well here.

Rev up the wagon; but don't all jump on it quite yet.

Because hopping on a scummy wagon for no explained reason is suspect. BT gave a reason and his vote wasn't jumping on a case. And of course DaLetterEl hadn't posted since RVS.

Although to be completely fair to PX because of his complete lack of an explanation he could have been agreeing with BT not Schezo. But still; he was putting me at L-2 for no explained reason that early in D1.

Post by: Conqueror on December 06, 2016, 10:24:16 PM
Honestly, I don't think PX's vote was unreasonable at the time he made it even if he gave zero reasoning. I wouldn't be adverse to a wagon but I'm mostly neutral and feel there could be (?) better lurker targets. Like if I had a vig I'd shoot DaLetterEl on suspicion of tactical lurking. FPMH.

I agree that Schezo's logic progression in the last few pages has been a little janky but I don't think it's janky in a scummy way, reminds me of what happened in Ten Desires Mafia.

When the game just isn't progressing otherwise we have to pretend someone actually looks guilty for something that's excused by RVS. If I give both of you a pass for that I'm nearly back to RVS and that would be awful. :I

Okay...sure, in RVS you can trump up reasons to vote for people because that's how you get the game started. From what I got from your posts you agree Schezo could have been doing that. What I keep getting from you is that "I'm justified voting Schezo" and less "Schezo is scummy." Sure. We have about a day left and it's safe to say RVS is over. So why do you think Schezo is scum? Are you scum Serela?  :ohdear:

I merely think PX should explain his vote. Schezo by his own admission was being scummy when pushing on me. PX jumped on that wagon without any explanation.

Okay, Conq asked me again why I think Schezo is scum. I'll go over it again because I don't know anything more to say about it at this point and I really still can't see anyone else worth voting. If I had to vote someone else I -guess- it'd be PX for not having words? Lurker lynches d1 are sort of sad. >_> But people really don't seem interested in Schezo and when I wake up tomorrow there's gonna be like 12 hours left with me apparently having become the main wagon. THAT MAKES A LURKER LYNCH SEEM OKAY I GUESS? We'll see how/if PX responds.

So. Schezo.
1.Schezo accuses Raikaria of adding obfuscation to his posts... which consists of... having thought DaLetterL's name was L. Because it was listed as L in the signups.
2.Schezo later actually votes Raikaria over this. ??? Like, sure, he explained why, but I really can't understand how people think it's bad for me to criticize his reasoning here. It seems absolutely silly to me!
3.Schezo accuses me of being mafia when I reply to both of them talking a bunch about "I did it to help end rvs" and for me siding with Raikaria. I don't understand how any of this is bad. >:C
4.When I continue to think these points are scummy, he votes me over my reasoning. It's a better case than his one on Raikaria, at least? BUT STILL. My reactions to his case listed in previous point!

We're just gonna hold on to the "Schezo would be dumb to think this part" (scum play) instead of the actually concerning filler that one could see taking issue with.  You're pushing the weakest part of the post to grab onto like, are you feigning the whole scumhunting thing, or this just makes me look worse.  Probably a combination of both.

Except I wasn't pegging your vote as scummy by association. I was pegging your vote as scummy because it had no explanation; showed no effort in scumhunting and was just hopping on a [By Schezo's own admission] scummy-looking wagon.

That has nothing to do with if Schezo is actually scum. In fact, if you were both scum you'd be stupid to do that because then I'd flip town and D2 it would be a case of 'Schezo pushed the townie wagon hard over something so minor and PX hopped on it for absolutely no reason they're scum'.

I'd have explained that part if someone had actually talked about that part. I assumed you had issue with me calling him L. No-one corrected me.

Also as I said in my return from work post; there was something else in one of your posts I disliked; [The appeal to meta with Ace Attorney Mafia] just further developments made it pointless to attack since it changed my opinions.

Although I do also wonder why people are making a big deal about 'filler play' in someone's 2nd post in the entire game that was during RVS. If that's the case; everyone who posted before me is guilty of that too. That said; the fact I find that a bad thing adds onto the 'I was being scumtastic to bait people' gambit Schezo is claiming to have done. And I don't see why he would have revealed the gambit when he did if it wasn't legitimate.

Maybe I'm rustier at mafia than I thought ;_; I never liked d1 in the first place.

Wait, so people actually like... significantly care about Raikaria's omgus sentence? Like wut? That's the reason PX is voting Raikaria? This is blowing my mind here. It's pretty much obviously a total joke line in rvs. I mean, for Schezo to push it is one thing (I guess... since it was still page 1 rvs) but then for PX to come drive-by vote it much later is dude wut, ontop of not explaining his vote until now, but even then I still think voting a pointless rvs joke line once the game has sorta picked up is just awful; the fact that he didn't explain the vote until he got flak about it is just gross icing on the cake.

I guess it's "filler", yes. But everything on page one (save maybe schezo's post) is this, I can't see how Raikaria's joke is possibly any scummier than the rest (As far as I can tell it's roughly identical to my line to BT for being "Appeasing"), and PX going after it at this point and in the method he did it seems like a total excuse of a vote.

B##Accuse:PX

I still don't like Schezo >:C But apart from PX looking actively scummier, I guess I can at least see why he's (Schezo's) voting me now, GRUDGINGLY. I don't exactly agree with his reasoning but I can at least understand how he got from point A to point B. Plus there's also nearly interest in voting him anyway and we've got like 10 hours or something, so we're heavily into consolidation time.

6AM and I have to head out for work in a bit so I'm just going to be posting my ramblings.

Will not be around for deadline.
I'm still not liking Schezo.
I find it funny that he says this in #75 (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1301825.html#msg1301825):
It feels more like a game of aha!
When I feel that he's just as guilty of doing something similar in #63 (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1301725.html#msg1301725)

If I had to choose between Raikaria and Serela, who are the other currently viable wagons, I would have to put my vote on Serela.
It feels like, to me, Raikaria is actually being pretty earnest about trying to find scum in his own way whereas Serela is...
I dunno, feels like his early game was super forced. Like he was trying to get his name out there as "Hey look at me I'm doing the things".
Example: #48 (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1301598.html#msg1301598)
Like, he says it's bad to outright state that you took some action to end RVS but he doesn't really do anything with the information?
You know, like, he's already voting Schezo and says that it's terrible that both Schezo and Raikaria did the same thing but he doesn't really seem to take it into consideration in his future posts?
I feel as though, given Schezo and Raikaria were the only interesting people at this point and Serela said as much, this should be far more important to Serela and not just a throwaway point?
I also don't like Serela's #58 (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1301696.html#msg1301696) where he simply states that he agrees with my entire post about Schezo.
Like, surely there must be some points in there that you either don't agree with or agree with more than others?
Feels, again, like a throwaway motion if you're just going to say "yeah I agree with that person over there" and not explain which parts you agree with and how they shape your opinion.
Also I don't understand the case that Serela is making on PX. Why PX over any of the other lurkers?
Also while I was typing this I think I convinced myself but maybe it's just deadline pressure getting to me and knowing that I won't be around for it.
Maybe.

PX, do you have anything to say about Raikaria other than the OMGUS thing? It wasn't a useful thing to say but that doesn't necessarily mean it's scummy so it's weird to me that you're mainly voting him over that.
I do agree that Raikaria's contention that PX didn't vote Schezo for being scumtastic is weird (but I don't think scummy weird) because a) that was Schezo's own description of his play (wtf Schezo) and b) even in that case I assume PX would have found both Raikaria and Schezo scummy so it's not weird he'd vote either one.

I just mainly wanted to say that I think Serela's sudden "realization" of PX's vote being awful seems completely contrived since the drive-by vote already existed and the grudging acceptance of Schezo's vote, god the entire thing just feels slimy. I dunno, if someone else had typed this out I might have been okay with it but I don't think this is town Serela.

Like seriously.

I'm voting PX because this far into the day, he explicitly stated he's voting Raikaria for an RVS joke line. Ontop of the fact that he dropped the vote earlier with no words which made it worse, but the main reason is that the vote's reason is awful.

As for the rest of your stuff against me, I didn't say it's bad to state that about RVS. I dunno where you got that. That's also where you're confused I didn't "take it in consideration" and treated it as throwaway that Raikaria/Schezo both did some terrible thing- because they didn't.

In the post where I said I agreed with you I later (in that post) stated some reasons which coincided with yours.

I just mainly wanted to say that I think Serela's sudden "realization" of PX's vote being awful seems completely contrived since the drive-by vote already existed
The drive-by vote wasn't good but lynching him over that D1 would have been the lamest lurker lynch ever, and lurker lynches d1 are lameo lame to start with.

But then he explained the -reason- behind the vote and the reason was awful.

I'm vanilla town.

@86

If I had to vote someone else I -guess- it'd be PX for not having words? Lurker lynches d1 are sort of sad. >_>
I was going off this.

Normally it's the kind of thing you try not to say but to be totally blunt either of you can be saintified by "I was trying to end RVS" but that entirely defeats the actual purpose of trying to end rvs. When the game just isn't progressing otherwise we have to pretend someone actually looks guilty for something that's excused by RVS. If I give both of you a pass for that I'm nearly back to RVS and that would be awful. :I

Like damn, we basically have a 6 person d1. And only one of those people looked even remotely scummy until like a few hours ago, but no one felt like talking after that apparently???? There's almost nothing to talk about. :C And between that and it being d1 and it being pretty quiet there's no real tension here.

Oh no. I'm being strung up. No one seems interested in counterwagons. My case on Schezo was just getting me murdered and people don't seem to care about PX, or haven't even -responded- to PX and just don't really exist anymore.

I would have liked to see Dormio's response but he's -gone- I guess so so much for that?

Like what's even supposed to happen anymore.

cut by dormio yay!
Oh. Dormio missed the post where I made the case on PX apparently. He noticed the vote though...
:C
It was #77 but I also restated the case there. You're gone anyway though so ;_;

But yeah I can see how you go tthe conclusion off the RVS comments, but anyway I didn't mean the RVS thing in itself was bad, just that I couldn't completely excuse bad actions off it. So I didn't! Now, once RVS was in the past I probably wouldn't care at all anymore, but then the game barely went anywhere to start with, plus I started liking schezo less overall, etc

@That Old Guy, WindyKitsune, and DaLetterEl
What's your previous mafia experience like? Want a quick baseline since I'm familiar with most of the other people playing.
Why not? How else will we get going in a 72-hour game?
I've played Mafia under Werewolf setting. I've played with my friends about 10-15 times in face to face, with action-based roles and about 30 minutes matches. It's first time that I play Mafia on a forum. At the moment there are some Mafia words used I'm getting used to vocabulary here and Mafia Wiki seems really good.

It's 'cause you keep leaving out the colon BT.

Good vote WindyKitsune. Wagon it up ya'll.
Thank you Schezo!
I'm sorry you got blasted because of this, still it seems helped to move the game over the RVS stage.

Hey, new players!

If you're reading this right now, don't freak out! You don't have to wade through all the arguments in the thread. Just your general feelings about the game will be fine - who's the most trustworthy? Who would you keep away from? Start posting, and it'll be easier from there.
Thank you too, BT!
I want to point out that yesterday I was offline because my poor timetable at university; now I have some days to participate more actively.


That's the situation I see here:
Schezo encourages a wagon, Serela misunderstands and votes Schezo accusing him wagoning without voting and Schezo answers with an OMGUS and Raikaria casts a vote against Schezo while saying not to OMGUS against L; I see a reasonable way that move is a random wagoning by Raikaria against Schezo, which made vote PX. But, I would like to know why PX followed Raikaria? It's still not clear for me. So:
##Initialize_the_vote_against PX
until something about that vote is more clear.

The situation about others seems a bit unclear for now, in sense:
- Serela's issues about Schezo's move are solved.
- Schezo's complains about post Reikaria's obfuscation seem dismissed.
- Schezo's wagoning are motivated as scumhunting.
- Consider also lots of votes were done in RVS stage.
This makes me think Raikaria, Schezo and Serela are clean, for now.

Obviously another problem is some people not interacting (for example me, sorry), if there are no important reasons then I don't mind voting them.

I actually had the thought reading his Serela post but then there was a line that made me think no no no scum wouldn't say that. Can you guess which one?

I see Dormio's activity light on so if I'm talking about this already:
@Dormio:
+ Try to verbalize what you still don't like about Schezo because I'm not seeing it (your original vote does not age well)
+ Are you fine with convincing yourself to vote Serela despite how Schezo's the one pushing the case?

I'm gonna try and gather my thoughts on Serela because Conq makes me waffle easily. I don't see who else we're going to be able to lynch at this point though.

The active players in this game have actually made me think "huh, isn't that a townpost?" multiple times throughout the day, except for Serela. Like, I emphasize with the people saying he's in-genuine, since I never felt the fire behind his posts this game. A lot of argument making and self-reassurance and not so many original insights. Even now I'm more inclined to think the latest posts are a desperation move, trying to win people over with counterarguments before he becomes the only viable wagon.

Conq, why do you think he'd try and find a fakeclaim as scum? I mean, it's something he's done in the past, but, like, a while ago in the past.

This is pretty much my issue with Serela. I can't tell if it's just because we're all mafia rusty or if it's just the way he words things, but I see less a passion for finding the scums and more justifications on why his vote is okay.

re: fakeclaiming - I think because it's a small semi-open setup with no doc, scum serela would want to find that pr asap. But now that I think about it, if there are only 2 scum and serela isn't the mafia boss then it literally doesn't matter if they find the cop who might not even be sane anyway. so yeah i guess it's not huge point.

cut by serela - I don't think it's your schezo case that's getting you lynched, at least it's not why I'm voting you.

Umm well,

I get the sense he's just doing his own thing, pointing out when people bug him. That time he expanded on why he didn't like Raikaria felt focused and not like he's trying to construct some safe vote. I'm not going to conjure up a bunch of townie-sounding behavior though. I'm just gonna say I think he's scumhunting for the little he's done.

Here's the thing though:

If you think people look fine, you can vocalize that. I know I just said I think most of the active players are probably town, but that doesn't mean their play was thaaat townie? People sure found things to say about people not-you-and-PX, and I can gather things I dislike about Raikaria and Schezo and others if I want, but I don't. Your line of thinking you're a victim of other players being too townie to make a case on, is actually pretty scum-like.

It's not a rock-solid scum wouldn't post this line. It's something that gave me some serious pause:

Also while I was typing this I think I convinced myself but maybe it's just deadline pressure getting to me and knowing that I won't be around for it.
Maybe.
Like, it's both a pretty great genuine moment and not something I see scum admitting to doing, unless they're really putting on an act, and I think Dormio's playing pretty normal so far.

I like his response to me just now too. Not lynching him.

I don't agree, though. The Schezo and PX cases are pretty standard duty that aren't abnormal as town or as scum, and the things that would've made me think you're necessarily town aren't there. Like, some color in your game, you know? Yes, I did expect better insights from you. That's what started my vote in page 2 when you were talking about RVS theory instead of how Schezo or Raikaria made you feel. Another example: when you understood Schezo's case on you, wasn't that dry? I mean, I can see you coming to understand his case, but you gave nothing else about him in particular. Most of the time you're just talking about how people aren't here, instead of focusing on what is here. There's this trap people usually enter when they're the focus of the day and whatever they say can't be good enough because they can't talk about anyone but themselves. I don't think that's the case here though! I think there's enough to analyze here. I think you aren't doing the analyzing because you're focused on yourself and your survival because you're prooobably scum. Sorry. :C

Quick comment but does anyone else want to start a Dormio wagon?

PX; if you don't actually scumhunt or at least answer the criticism aimed at you, I am going to try my damnedest to push your wagon all the way to the noose. Even if I have to flip to Serela just so we don't no lynch.

Like, you don't show up a few hours before deadline and just suggest a random wagon with no explanation.

And that's on top of hopping on Schezo's scummy wagon for no given reason, and then said given reason being worthless [Fluff in my post during RVS applies to literally everyone who posted before that point]

Also; for what it's worth; we know we have a cop. I think it's pretty clear from the consensus of the town that whichever of Serela and PX get lynched, the other should be copped.

A wild Kitsune appears and I like it's style.

As alluded to above; I really do not see the point of a Dormio lynch. I don't even really see the scumtell.

Basically:

I think PX is scummy for his lack of scumhunting; and hopping on Schezo's self-admitted scummy case. Admittedly; this is somewhat normal PX behaviour, but that doesn't change the fact that the behavior is scummy as hell. I think PX is a better lynch than Serena.
Serela there's not much to say that isn't parroting what others say. PX v Serela really comes down to which town thinks is worse; PX jumping on a bad wagon or Serela jumping on a counterwagon while missing/not stateing the scuminess in Schezo's wagon.
Dormio hasn't done anything that looks particularly scummy to me. Maybe very minor, but nowhere near PX/Serela.
Everyone else ranges from 'meh' to town. Won't outright say who I think is town and who I think is most town; since that paints targets on the backs of said trusted townies for mafia to remove those trusted people; and there's no Doc to use that info.

Lynch one of PX and Serela IMO. I prefer PX but would lynch Serela if I have to. Also down for a lurker lynch if we can't get a consensus between PX/Serela. Any Cop should check whichever of those two we don't lynch. I say Cop because if sanity isn't guarenteed there#s probobly a sane and insane cop.

@ BT cut [one of 6]: Yeah I can see how it might look like Serela x Raikaria with Serela defending me early and me wanting a PX lynch over Serela. If Serela's scum it looks bad on me but I just think PX's actions [And inactions] are worse.

You can edit your posts, you know! Especially useful for fixing broken tags or quotes.

I'm fine with that reply, actually, but I think you're making a mistake comparing the PX/Serela wagons like that. PX has barely said anything worth analyzing while Serela's posts are everywhere, so surely you can think of something better to say about them.

I am going to try my damnedest to push your wagon all the way to the noose. Even if I have to flip to Serela just so we don't no lynch.

Serela is eh, just put that as a lynch that's not me

As I said Raikaria, I fail to see your reason to see why jumping onto a scummy wagon is inherently scummy unless the person who made said wagon is scum. For what purpose would scum get out of jumping onto something that would get major attention in the negative light? Therefore, on what weight does your case hold?

Raikaria's case boils down to, "Schezo's mafia, but not yet!  So PX by extension is also mafia."  Raikaria's doubled down on this reasoning and when Serena flips scum here in a second Raikarias scum would not shock me in the slightest.

So yeah kudo BT for that earlier.

Serela was pretty complacent at the end of the day yesterday and the push on PX seemed half-assed, which made me worry a bit about bussing after the flip, but I can't see anyone on the early wagon that would be partnered with Serela (maybe me but I'm town :^)). It's possible that was his version of a full-power push, which would point to one of the people on the PX wagon.

Thinking Old Guy and L confirmed town for not even bothering to save Serela lmao. Unless there are three scum, but I think two scum is a reasonable assumption.

@WindyKitsune: Can you explain how you arrived at this conclusion?

The situation about others seems a bit unclear for now, in sense:
- Serela's issues about Schezo's move are solved.
- Schezo's complains about post Reikaria's obfuscation seem dismissed.
- Schezo's wagoning are motivated as scumhunting.
- Consider also lots of votes were done in RVS stage.
This makes me think Raikaria, Schezo and Serela are clean, for now.
I'm not sure how you get that those three are town from these points. Could you explain?

I was going to vote WindyKitsune here but then I read Raikaria:

I think that's a stronger thing to chase up than Serela. Although I'll be honest, but this just be personal bias from the fact that Serela was defending me. I also just got home from work and I want read over it a few times and wait a little just to see how Serela responds to this development before I make a proper judgement on it.

##Vote: PX

I could change this if I re-read and see something in Serela's posts that seems fishy, but I think PX has at least as much explaining to do as Serela.
Yeah re-reading I'll say I basically agree with the points on Serela but I don't want to hop on the wagon just yet and think we need to chase up PX as well here.

Rev up the wagon; but don't all jump on it quite yet.

Honestly if he had just voted PX because he thought PX was scummier I would have been 100% fine with it but this reeks of overexplaining how he toootally agrees with the Serela case but he just wants to run up PX first. And he repeated it multiple times! No shame in being wrong but this just looks like he was trying to get away with hedging his bets.

You're telling me, I don't have anything prepped.

##Vote Raikaria

Yeah, interactions reek something really bad. I'll add that the original PX vote was calling on some serious wordsmith magic tricks just to get another wagon off the ground.

What's worse than jumping on someone to be jumped on as Schezo claims instead of jumping on someone for being 'scumtastic'?

Jumping on the case that is being made by someone being scumtastic. That's what.

By Schezo's own admission he was being 'scumtastic' and PX just jumps on it without even explaining. It's worse to jump on a case that's obviously scumtastic than to jump on someone being scumtastic in my books.

I'm not gonna start arguing logic about this, just read the quote and tell me it's not garble.

But I didn't want us to be complacent with this lynch like every other D1 scum lynch game where you have like 2-3 lynches lined up and it turns up the townies were scum the whole time, so, uh, let's see what else we can talk about while this is happening.
Title: Re: REVIVAL OF MAFIA: Game Thread (DAY 2)
Post by: BT on December 10, 2016, 07:56:50 AM
Then again in this game I'm finding it hard to doubt Conq, Schezo or PX even if I try. PX is easiest because he doesn't have a lot of content but Serela's way of addressing him seems scum-to-town, so I'll pass.

Maybe I'm rustier at mafia than I thought ;_; I never liked d1 in the first place.

Wait, so people actually like... significantly care about Raikaria's omgus sentence? Like wut? That's the reason PX is voting Raikaria? This is blowing my mind here. It's pretty much obviously a total joke line in rvs. I mean, for Schezo to push it is one thing (I guess... since it was still page 1 rvs) but then for PX to come drive-by vote it much later is dude wut, ontop of not explaining his vote until now, but even then I still think voting a pointless rvs joke line once the game has sorta picked up is just awful; the fact that he didn't explain the vote until he got flak about it is just gross icing on the cake.

Conq has been on the ball the whole game and while that's not a towntell (I KNOW BETTER THAN THAT), I'm finding it hard to believe he wouldn't have at least helped conjure some sort of counterwagon to Serela.

Schezo is rock solid from both sides of the interaction basin, part of the headcanon I had for yesterday's lynch was how Serela didn't want to push Town!Schezo anymore, and the interactions are really strong in general.

It's really just the inactives and Raikaria. :shrug:
Title: Re: REVIVAL OF MAFIA: Game Thread (DAY 2)
Post by: Raikaria on December 10, 2016, 08:43:30 AM
Fully expected to be run up here. Which is annoying because I'm town.

I mean; what sort of idiot scum would hard defend their 'scumbuddy' like Serela did D1?

Honestly if he had just voted PX because he thought PX was scummier I would have been 100% fine with it

I said that about 5,000 times. OK; 5,000 is exaggerating but still.

Also; I draw your attention to #67 (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1301739.html#msg1301739) to #71 (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1301752.html#msg1301752) as a particular example. Especially #70; where I state:

AKA: Not voting PX for a lurker lynch reason. Actually voting PX because I think he's done something scummy that is similar but not the same as what Serela is being voted for.

and your response is:

Hmm, sure, I can buy that. I'll let PX defend himself.

And all of a sudden my PX case makes me scum when you were fine with it D1?

There were two reasons why I pushed PX over Serela despite being fine with a Serela lynch:

1: I thought PX was worse. Admittedly; PX's way of playing always makes me think he's scummy.
2: We could just have run up Serela and talked about nothing else for 24 hours but more talking means more to go off D2 to lynch someone else.

===

Actually;' continuing to read; Conq; you were voting for Serela before Schezo's whole gambit thing. Schezo started the wagon moving and you just rode it.

Also there's this:

This is pretty much my issue with Serela. I can't tell if it's just because we're all mafia rusty or if it's just the way he words things, but I see less a passion for finding the scums and more justifications on why his vote is okay.

re: fakeclaiming - I think because it's a small semi-open setup with no doc, scum serela would want to find that pr asap. But now that I think about it, if there are only 2 scum and serela isn't the mafia boss then it literally doesn't matter if they find the cop who might not even be sane anyway. so yeah i guess it's not huge point.

Seems a little odd to be talking about the number of scum when it was never specified how many scum there are.

That said; it would be some next level bussing for Conq to ride the Serela wagon all day long. But; if there are only 2 scum and he's the other one; it's not past the realm of possibility. Especially now that he's contradicting himself and misrepping me [Said he had no issues with PX case. Claims he'd be fine if I'd say 'I think PX was scummier than Serela' when I said this REPEATEDLY] while starting the easy town lynch.

The bussing is also a play I think Conq might actually do.

===

On another hand; it is worth noting PX didn't vote Serela until BT poked him to do so. On top of the stuff D1 and the fact that PX always looks scummy to me.

===

##VOTE: Raikaria. Cause I'm bored.

Yeah sure, why not.

This is really really bad and I don't care if I'm called on OMGUS for this.

Especially since, and I hate to bring this up of all things:

I was absent for a little, sorry! Serela was a filthy Maflord so killing him was a good idea. His role was Mafia boss.

24 hours to give me a name if you have a role, or are scum and want to effect a kill. No response means I randomise. Goes for town roles (if any) as well!

This seems oddly specific and seems to indicate that one of the lurkers is scum.

After TOG I'd actually probobly say my next suspect after him; discounting lurkers; is Conq for the reasons I stated above.

Also TOG's vote on me is really bad because he's literally just popped up for the first time this game; voted the easy town mislynch for no explanation [Again; do you really think that Serela is THAT dumb to give away his scumbuddy so hard D1? Especially when his wagon is going off the cliff? He was setting my up to be lynched D2 as soon as he new he was going], and when pressed on 'do you think he's mafia' his response of 'Sure; why not' is horrible.

I still can't make sense of Raikaria's reason I'm scum. Will be voting him but I'd like to see his response first

Cut: wot

Lack of explanation for vote.

While jumping on a wagon that by Schezo's own admission was scummy and flawed.

Lack of scumhunting.

Post by: PX on December 10, 2016, 12:03:25 PM
Another thing of note is Serela's posts and mindset coming into the final hours. Like Conq noted Serela wasn't being his usual caps lock panic self until pointed out, which would mean he was reasonably sure that the outcome of the day wouldn't be a negative one towards his faction. This means he had reason to believe he wouldn't be lynched that day. I doubt BT or Conq would go full on bus right away so that points to those off the wagon.

Except the wagon was started by me and Serela joined it because of Not Me Over Me.

Also I'll just note that I fully expect to get lynched today regardless of what happens.

Which gives the mafia what they want but also probobly gives the cop his sanity at least because I'm 90% sure the cop copped me if he had any sense after Serela flipped town.

I'm just going to do my best to point out who's probobly the scum on my wagon as I go down. Then maybe people will listen once I flip Vanillia.

Post by: Conqueror on December 10, 2016, 01:13:36 PM
And all of a sudden my PX case makes me scum when you were fine with it D1?
Yes, because Serela flipped scum and that most likely makes PX town. More importantly, it's not the case on PX which I think makes you scum. It's how you handled the Serela wagon, repeatedly telling us how you agreed about the points on the Serela wagon while starting a new wagon in the last 24 hours with half the game absent. That would be weird from anyone and I think it's very out of character for you as well. You're headstrong, never afraid to just vote who you think the scum is, and more importantly, you're not an appeaser. So why did you keep emphasizing that you thought the Serela wagon was also okay as well? The only reason I can think of is that you were trying to explain your behavior in the case Serela flipped. Town you wouldn't have been so focused on justifying why you voted PX over Serela. You'd be focused on PX full stop. Tell me if I'm wrong here (I know you will, but am I really wrong?)

There were two reasons why I pushed PX over Serela despite being fine with a Serela lynch:

1: I thought PX was worse. Admittedly; PX's way of playing always makes me think he's scummy.
2: We could just have run up Serela and talked about nothing else for 24 hours but more talking means more to go off D2 to lynch someone else.
1. If that's the case, why didn't you take that into account? I always take that into account while reading PX - it's the main reason I was mostly neutral with him but could still support a lynch on him. 2. We could also just run up serela while talking about other people, nothing stops people from talking about people they're not voting for

Seems a little odd to be talking about the number of scum when it was never specified how many scum there are.
I actually wanted to bring that up at some point and ask how many scum people thought there were but I figured it wasn't that helpful until we got some flips going. Right now I'm assuming there are two, but three is possible given BP.

Especially now that he's contradicting himself and misrepping me [Said he had no issues with PX case. Claims he'd be fine if I'd say 'I think PX was scummier than Serela' when I said this REPEATEDLY] while starting the easy town lynch.
Nope, not contradicting myself or misrepping you and you're not reading what I said. Actually, you're misrepping me:
Honestly if he had just voted PX because he thought PX was scummier I would have been 100% fine with it but this reeks of overexplaining how he toootally agrees with the Serela case but he just wants to run up PX first. And he repeated it multiple times! No shame in being wrong but this just looks like he was trying to get away with hedging his bets.
Need an example of the distinction? See WindyKitsune's vote on PX. It's not well reasoned out at all, but he didn't make repeated excuses about why he didn't want to vote for Serela despite thinking Serela was preeeety scummy. But you did.

I knew this would come up. Alternatively, you didn't want the lurkers to pop in and hammer a Serela vote out of nowhere (we had at least one of them show up by the end of he day) and then you'd look really bad. Or, Serela would get lynched at another point in time and then you'd basically be confirmed mafia because you thought Serela was mafia the entire time but never voted him. Oh wait PX said this above me.

Post by: Conqueror on December 10, 2016, 01:25:41 PM
Also to address points about me being potential scum who bussed Serela - I'll admit I mostly just sat on Serela all day and I wouldn't say I was one of the main people who drove the wagon, but as scum I hate lynching my buddies so you bet I would have pushed hard on other people while poking Serela (sorta like what I'm saying you did in this game). Check out my most recent scumgame where I pushed townies all game until my buddies imploded and I then had to push them because they were the only people being looked at.

Also I'll just note that I fully expect to get lynched today regardless of what happens.
Also, I really fucking hate this defeated bullshit attitude. Whether it comes from town giving up or scum faking it.
If you're scum just go ahead and lie down and die (and I won't let you get away like I let Bardiche get away with it when he tried to pull this). But if you're town, then bloody fight for your life. I've been on the receiving end of wagons as town because of pushes I made on counterwagons to scum, multiple times in fact. But you know what I did? I fought tooth and nail and managed to change the flow of the conversation and sometimes even got my scumspect lynched instead. I convinced people who suspected me that I was town by showing them who the real scum was. So if you're town here, show us who the best alternative is. Your current vote uses a mod note indicating one of the lurkers is scum when it does nothing of the sort. If you think I'm scum, let's throw down.

It's also the fact as I said before that lynching me actually makes some sense if we *can't* make headway on who's scum because there's a cop in the game that has unknown sanity; and I was the logical cop option.

Although seriously; I'm like 80% sure the scum is a lurker from what has been posted by the GM and the fact no-one really helped Serela at all; even long before the hammer. And it's hard to make a case on people with no content.

Especially when there's three of them.

Day phases are 48 hours.

There's no guarantee of a cop or that they copped you so we shouldn't be using that line of reasoning in the first place.

I can buy scum being a lurker - it would explain why Serela seemed like he gave up. They would have to have been so busy that they couldn't make an ounce of effort to save Serela though, or they just plain don't care.

Post by: Raikaria on December 10, 2016, 06:14:47 PM
And that's the thing. Lynching me is the lazy play which Serela wanted you to do by buddying me D1.

Oh yeah the role list isn't guaranteed. So lynching me might not even help a cop.

Can't help but notice Conq being a lot more proactive on my mislynch than the Serela lynch. Bear that in mind when I flip. Also; Conq scum would explain Serela 'giving up' since Conq was voting Serela since RVS and never unvoted.

But right now I don't feel like there's enough that I didn't point out at the start of the day to make a solid case that isn't based around me being town; knowledge that you guys don't have.

And aside from a potential; weak Conq case; I think the scum is one of the lurkers. I mean seriously how do you make a case on Windy; L or Old Guy when none of the three has much to analyze and it could be any of those three.

I'll try and make some sort of case or at least dump everything I think in a coherent fashion later. If I'm going to get lynched I might as well throw down everything I have for town to go off.

Short infodump on all players. I'll probobly go deeper on stuff later but I want to get this out seeing as I'm not far from being hammered.

1. That Old Guy - Lurker. Only content is a non-explained jump on an easy wagon on a townie. [Current one]. Could easily be scum

2. WindyKitsune - Lurking. I guess it's a negative being involved with the PX wagon. That's why I'm getting strung up now. I think less likly scum than the other lurkers.

3. Raikaria - Me. I'm town.

4. Schezo - Started the Serela lynch; so is pretty much cleartown.

5. Conqueror - I'll probobly have to talk more about this later; but I think of all the active players he's most likely scum.

6. Dormio - Is it fair to call Dormio a lurker this game? Still; what little he's posted seems town at a glance.

7. PX - As much as PX's style of playing mafia triggers every scum sense I have; it's probobly unlikely at this point that PX is Serela's scumbuddy.

8. Serela - Flipped Scum

9. L - Lurker. Could easily be scum and has literally no content to use to make a case.

10. BT - Early adopter of the Serela wagon; so is probobly town.

So; IMO; it's between Conq and the three lurkers for the scum. I make such a big point of the lurkers due to a potential slip by Bard of all people but that's more content than most of those three have posted this game so...

Page 2: #31 (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1301427.html#msg1301427) Conq makes RVS vote on Serela. He never moves from it.

About the only thing relevant on P2. None of the lurkers posted. Conq asks a few questions and defends me.

Page 3
: Here's where things pick up since Schezo has just revealed his whole gambit thing.

#67 and 68 (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1301739.html#msg1301739) are Conq's first posts after the Serela gambit.

Conq states Schezo's logic is 'janky' but remains on the Serela wagon. Also he says:

Quote
I wouldn't be adverse to a wagon but I'm mostly neutral and feel there could be (?) better lurker targets. Like if I had a vig I'd shoot DaLetterEl on suspicion of tactical lurking. FPMH.

So he still dosen't even think Serela is scum yet is riding the wagon.

===

Also there's my vote on PX in #68 (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1301727.html#msg1301727) where I state...

Quote
What's worse than jumping on someone to be jumped on as Schezo claims instead of jumping on someone for being 'scumtastic'?

Jumping on the case that is being made by someone being scumtastic. That's what.


By Schezo's own admission he was being 'scumtastic' and PX just jumps on it without even explaining. It's worse to jump on a case that's obviously scumtastic than to jump on someone being scumtastic in my books.

I think that's a stronger thing to chase up than Serela. Although I'll be honest, but this just be personal bias from the fact that Serela was defending me. I also just got home from work and I want read over it a few times and wait a little just to see how Serela responds to this development before I make a proper judgement on it.

Oh wait look at Conq's explanation for voting me:

Quote
Honestly if he had just voted PX because he thought PX was scummier I would have been 100% fine with it but this reeks of overexplaining how he toootally agrees with the Serela case but he just wants to run up PX first. And he repeated it multiple times! No shame in being wrong but this just looks like he was trying to get away with hedging his bets.

Bolded in the last two quotes is clear evidence Conq is misrepping me hard to angle things as me being scum hedgeing my bets.

It takes until #85 (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1301910.html#msg1301910) for Conq to finally actually address the Serela wagon and state he thinks Serela is 'slimy'. He also tells Serela to claim.

Page 4:


Serela Claims VT and then Conq says as scum he doesn't think Serela claims VT (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1301918.html#msg1301918)

He still keeps voting for Serela however; despite thinking Serela's claim isn't from !ScumSerela.

Quote
I guess I'm okay with voting PX but I don't think his posts lean either way for me at the moment. So it's down to how much I really want to lynch Serela. Aren't you glad Serela?

#95 reeks of scum. Firstly; here's Conq not practicing what he preaches. He accuses me of hedging my bets and then says that earlier.

The bolded bit in particular is very fishy wording. Wouldn't seem out of place for a scum saying 'I'll lynch you if it benefits me'. Serela's response is also weird. Also note nothing about Serela being scummy; it's based on his personal desire to lynch Serela.

#106 (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1301950.html#msg1301950) also says the Schezo case isn't why Conq is voting Serela. So... uh... why is he voting Serela?

Also the potential slip about the number of scum.

===

Day 2:


Conq suddenly goes from passive D1 and very; very wishy-washy on the Serela lynch to hard pushing on me. A very rapid shift in attitude. Also the midrep in #138 (https://www.shrinemaiden.org/forum/index.php/topic,20454.msg1302614.html#msg1302614) which I pointed out in the Page 3 section.

#136/url] is a bit strange in how he specifies himself as a potential Serela partner and then writes it off. Also attempting to justify his vote after the flip. Instead of before it when it should have been done. He also happens to bring up bussing as well. In the same line.

Also his potential slip about the number of mafia in the game.

tl;dr: Conq's vote on me is based on a massive misrep. In addittion; he had some fishy interactions and reactions in regards to Serela. Indeed, his reason for voting Serela was never explained. He literally just rode the wagon.

Can't help but notice Conq being a lot more proactive on my mislynch than the Serela lynch. Bear that in mind when I flip.
I'm more proactive because it's Day 2 with a scumflip (more information instead of just whiffing fumes) and 48 hour day instead of 72.

I do agree that it's difficult to differentiate the lurkers based on the content but at the same time there is a difference. If we're going solely by content I think L is the scummiest - since BT recruited him I assume he has mafia experience, but the only thing he has done this game is pop in to give an excuse. As for the other two, I'm waiting for them to respond.

True, this is my bad but I've done the exact same thing at least one other time where I was town and Serela was scum. It's part of why I wasn't fully convinced, along with the role logic I thought through later.

Quote
He still keeps voting for Serela however; despite thinking Serela's claim isn't from !ScumSerela.
I wasn't sure. And in that case, how would staying on Serela make me more likely to be scum?


As for the misrep, here's what I said

Here's what I was referring to:
Quote
What's worse than jumping on someone to be jumped on as Schezo claims instead of jumping on someone for being 'scumtastic'?

Jumping on the case that is being made by someone being scumtastic. That's what.

By Schezo's own admission he was being 'scumtastic' and PX just jumps on it without even explaining. It's worse to jump on a case that's obviously scumtastic than to jump on someone being scumtastic in my books.

Yeah re-reading I'll say I basically agree with the points on Serela but I don't want to hop on the wagon just yet and think we need to chase up PX as well here.

Rev up the wagon; but don't all jump on it quite yet.

My options are:

Push you - I get accused of being scum grasping at straws

Do nothing - Get accused of being town who gave up

Try to start a lurker lynch - Which dosen't give anyone any material at all to work off on D3.

Anything else dosen't make any sense whatsoever. At least pushing you can give town more interactions and such to go off when I flip town.

Honestly pushing you is the most pro-town thing I can do in this position to at least have us discuss something else and make use of the time in D2. If we end up lynching someone who's not me and is actually scum; all the better.

I am looking for anything that looks scummy.

Thing is; I'm 80% sure that the scum is one of the three lurkers. And with three lurkers with little~no content; there's nothing to really use to pick between them.

So I'm forced to rely on the long shot scumhunt.

And I know I'm town. So stopping my own lynch is pro-town. Lynching me there is a 0% chance of hitting scum. Lynching anyone else there is a 1/7 chance; even before you narrow the field by taking the obvtownies out. By directing the lynch off of myself; a townie; I am inherently helping to hunt scum.

Post by: BT on December 10, 2016, 11:37:17 PM
I was busy today studying for an exam and tomorrow will be worse with work, but here's my input:

===

This is really really bad and I don't care if I'm called on OMGUS for this.

Especially since, and I hate to bring this up of all things:

Quote from: Bardiche
I was absent for a little, sorry! Serela was a filthy Maflord so killing him was a good idea. His role was Mafia boss.

24 hours to give me a name if you have a role, or are scum and want to effect a kill. No response means I randomise. Goes for town roles (if any) as well!

This seems oddly specific and seems to indicate that one of the lurkers is scum.

##Vote: The Old Guy

The tone here bugs me, why are you so reluctant to point out the possible modslip? Add to that, why do you care so much being called out for pointing out Old Guy's vote (a guy you think is scum) that you have to put the "I don't care if" disclaimer?

Also I'll just note that I fully expect to get lynched today regardless of what happens.

Which gives the mafia what they want but also probobly gives the cop his sanity at least because I'm 90% sure the cop copped me if he had any sense after Serela flipped town.

I'm just going to do my best to point out who's probobly the scum on my wagon as I go down. Then maybe people will listen once I flip Vanillia.

And then there's stuff like this. Is this a townpost? The last scum in a 2-scum setup wouldn't be thinking about the cycles to come, man.

Also to address points about me being potential scum who bussed Serela - I'll admit I mostly just sat on Serela all day and I wouldn't say I was one of the main people who drove the wagon, but as scum I hate lynching my buddies so you bet I would have pushed hard on other people while poking Serela (sorta like what I'm saying you did in this game). Check out my most recent scumgame where I pushed townies all game until my buddies imploded and I then had to push them because they were the only people being looked at.

I was with you until that last bit. Doesn't Serela's D1 fit the bill?

If you're scum just go ahead and lie down and die (and I won't let you get away like I let Bardiche get away with it when he tried to pull this).

Not related I just really hate you for reminding me that happened. :| :| :|

And I've not voted you yet because I was pressing for info on stuff and thinking it over.

I need to actually find a counter-case on someone which I actually think is stronger than the cases on me. Day phases are 72 hours. I got time to think.

Vey. No you don't, you need to scumhunt. If you're town and manage to survive today it's a sweet bonus. Only scum think they need to find a stronger case here.

...
6. Dormio - Is it fair to call Dormio a lurker this game? Still; what little he's posted seems town at a glance.
...

Pbbbfft. I love these townslips. Like, two options here. Either Raikaria's playing us (eh I give it a relatively low % chance) or he forgot who he nightkilled last night.

At least pushing on you can generate discussion [If anyone besides me and you post on the topic] which can be used by the surviving townies later to help decide who's scum.

Honestly pushing you is the most pro-town thing I can do in this position to at least have us discuss something else and make use of the time in D2. If we end up lynching someone who's not me and is actually scum; all the better.

You're very wrong..

I'm actually fairly sure Raikaria has townslipped before as scum by talking about a nightkill like they were alive (or was that Serela?).

I'll admit I'm not too sure on Raikaria either now mainly because I don't get his gameplan here.

I was pointing out potential for being accused of OMGUS and such because I didn't want my argument just written off as such.

Also I wasn't calling Serela himself stupid. I was calling the actions stupid from a RaikariaxSerela perspective. Why would scum give away their buddy so early D1? And continue to act like it while being set for the noose? It makes no sense. As soon as Serela accepted he was getting lynched he was setting me up to be mislynched D2 by interactions. To give whoever his scumbuddy is a better shot.

As for why I was reluctant to bring up the potential modslip? Because it was a modslip. Bardiche isn't playing the game and it feels kinda bad to use that.

From my PoV I'm the only one who's been trying to scumhunt this entire day phase. Because everyone else is trying to string me up and I'm a townie.

My point was how long it took you to address the wagon after it started. You made multiple posts without so much as commenting on it while still sitting on it from RVS. Also pretty sure saying you'd vig someone is showing interest in their lynch or at least demise.

It wouldn't seem out of place for scum trying to mislynch a townie. This is clearly not the case here.Except for everything else I've said about Serela this game

Raikaria (2): Old Guy, Schezo
L (4): BT, Conqueror, Raikaria, PX
Bardiche (∞): L, WindyKitsune

I posted at 6 PM that you have one day left. The truth is, you actually didn't have that much time: you had 11 hours left. But I fucked up am a generous god and so the Day ends at 6 AM (HAHAHA) my time, which is about six hours from now! I'd really appreciate a lynch in the next hour or so because I'm not waking up to end the Day Phase. I may assign someone to end the Day for me.

Because it's not in the rules: when I end a Day Phase and there's no lynch reached, then I will lynch the Towniest person.

Be nice, kids.

With 8 votes in play, 5 are needed for a lynch. L is 1 vote away from going on a journey of discovery into the lives of those who are dead.

You have the power to make stuff happen.

Well if we can't even no lynch then in the case Raikaria is town we are FUCKED, so lynching L is objectively the correct play.

And that's the hammer! Which means it's a great time to reveal that L was Town and you still callously murdered him.

You monsters.

But it's Night Phase, so you have 24 hours to reflect on your lack of empathy. Also a great time to tell me about anything you want to do during the night. But only if I told you you can in a PM.

Don't send me creepy PMs about what you do in bed at night. Please.

4a. In the event of a hammer, Day Phase will end immediately. It is not allowed to post in the game thread after a hammer has fallen, unless you're the hammered and want to get out last words. Because you are dying, you cannot use more than 10 words as a final message.

Next infraction will be a modkill.

Hello everyone, it's Day 3.

Some housekeeping:
I haven't seen L participate in the game. Because they've shown no participation in the game, and indeed, stretch beyond belief the idea of "lurking as a gambit", I have decided to use my modkill powers.

L was Town. I am extremely disappointed in their lack of commitment, or at least the common decency to let me know they'll have to sub out.

Additionally, WindyKitsune's failure to show up for an entire gameday and gamenight shows similar lack of commitment and decency to inform about their actions. Because this goes beyond "lurking as a gambit", I have decided to modkill them as well.

WindyKitsune was Mafia.

That brings the game to an unfortunate close. I had briefly considered subbing in Huh What, but there are three reasons I have decided not to do so:

1) I would have to sub out the scum player, who is the lesser lurker but still egregious in their behaviour. I don't think I should condone one over the other because of their alignment.
2) It wouldn't be fair to Town, as the two player slots both have wispy participation, such that placing HW in that slot would all at once put scum at a massive advantage.
3) Town correctly discerned Serela as Scum, and the other scum player did not play (to win). No nightkill was submitted. Town deserves the win.

For that reason, REVIVAL OF MAFIA has now ended in Town's victory.

Note for the Cop: there was no Pure-hearted, and you were Naive to the point of scanning everyone as Town.

Misc note: originally, the scum team was L and WindyKitsune, but I swapped out L for Serela after deciding I didn't want to wind up with a scum team of two possible newcomers. It's kind of ironic.

Bard, did you really just modkill someone the day after we lynched them? :V

Well, at least we got a mafia game going, almost. I'm pretty impressed it got off the ground actually.

You did well defending yourself on the last day given the circumstances!

Were there any other roles besides cop? Who was the cop?

Yes. :V Considering scum submitted no night kill there would not have been a satisfying way to resolve it without either condoning the behavior or outing the scum as lurking so hard they didn't NK.

I made a sliiight oversight with L, (for some reason thought Rai was lynched) but I would've still modkilled scum than let them get away with lurking.

Don't think it would be fair to wipe off WK's inactivity with a replacement, since you cannot blame a sub for their predecessor's actions.

Well, with your style of play, I'd say the game sucked moreso because you couldn't be arsed to play than scum failing to provide commitment.

Bard thinking L was still alive was probably partially my fault because I thought L was alive for some reason and suggested modkilling him and subbing HW because it wouldn't make lylo earlier :V

I really can't blame him at all for what he did though, even I admitted subbing the scum in that late would be sorta bluhh, it's just that the only reasonable alternatives were subbing or mercykilling the game.

Well, considering I've made a big part of mess in this game, I think there are some points to say:
- First, when I signed up I've taken in account that I had a week of time to spend with continuity on the game.
- Second, in my long period of absence I was missing because I was ill, well I'm still ill, but before I was *really ill* at point not to be able to write something at MotK.
- Third, "You could inform the mod instead of doing nothing". No, I couldn't; really, for 6 days.

Some of you are angry about how the game proceeded since some players had no activity inside the game; well, I'm angry because I had almost no activity in this game and didn't want that but could do nothing to solve this problem; if I had known about this before I just wouldn't have sign up. :(

Thank you Bardiche for hosting this match, I'm sorry the match couldn't find its natural ending but think early-ending the match was a reasonable solution.

Really?
Well, i mean, okay, yeah, i did kind of suck at playing this game, but:

1. My friends were over on saturday, so i was busy.
2. The only versions of Werewolf/Mafia i had played were live-action/in-person games, not forum games, so i was kind of unfamiliar with this stuff.
3. I was a Townie, so that and the other 2 things caused me to be unsure about what to do.
4. Was it really my fault the game sucked? I said it sucked because it ended too early, not because the players were bad at the game or anything like that. Hell, everyone else seemed to have a fun time. I really don't see what you have to gain from pointing fingers at me.

@WindyKistune: Sorry to hear about your illness, i really wish it hadn't gone that way.

Being new is fine, but your solution to being new, according to you, was to not do anything d1 because you might get accused... in a game about accusing people :/ And you also outright said it's because you were being lazy. You also complained it was really boring. Overall you were just sorta rude the whole time :/

You made three posts on Day 1. An RVS vote, an explanation of your experience, and a request to explain "wtf" was going on. Your follow-up posts are about how bored you are and how lazy you are. Then your final post is to say that the game sucked and that it was lame the mod had to step in.

Frankly, it was rude to be going around complaining how "lame" the game was and how much it "sucked" considering you contributed to that directly with your playstyle. I felt that if you were going to make a jab at people by saying the game sucked and was lame, you should know you've not been a positive influence.


@WindyKitsune: Fair enough, normal excuse is "I felt too ill to post but could update my Twitter twenty-eight times per hour", but if you were so ill not to be able to write anything then I apologise for any harshness, that was uncalled for.

They just didn't know what they were getting into with forum mafia.

Can't blame them, since the last game was a while ago.
