Also, is there any way to change the skins? I am having such a hard time seeing the quotes, from what the actual post is...

Ximbad said the wagon was too thin, it seems that he was just pushing for a mislynch then when he realized that it wasn't going anywhere, he unvoted
Wut? Are you even paying attention? I voted you for using the term "srs sbns." I never pushed for a Yanni lynch.
Ximbad's comment about the yanni wagon going nowhere definitely strikes me as odd. I agree it seems like he was going for a mislynch and jumped off the bandwagon (to vote for the captain who, since his first post, has seemed much less scummy to me, and who actually defended Ximbad earlier in the page).

It is suprising to me that there are no votes for Jones or PhantomS considering they have been the most aggressive and seemingly scummy people so far.
They both went after The Guardian, then both attacked Yanni for something that didn't seem like a big deal (Ximbad agreed), and this is AFTER PhantomS scolded The Guardian for voting Yanni because he was playing off our hatred for him. Maybe that gave PS the idea?
unvote: Captain; Vote: imopen2

In the first paragraph you talk about how you don't like my unvote of yanni.
In the second paragraph you talk about how you think Phantoms is scummy since the reasons for voting for Yanni are weak. You even reference me as a source.

No you misunderstood me. I don't think voting for yanni makes sense. That's why your comment was suspicious (and has been called suspicious by a couple other people too). I also didn't like phantoms' vote for yanni. if you want to vote me, that's fine, but at least read my
posts first :cry:

tag-team...interesting :sherlock:


It would be nice to hear from some of the less active people.

I'm sticking with my PhantomS read for now. I'm less sure about KP because he tends to be a somewhat agressive person in general on this forum and I'm not sure whether that behavior is typical of scum in mafia. It just rubs me the wrong way
You could at least try to be consistent in your judgment. Whether to meta or not is a personal thing, but if you're going to meta
that kpaca is aggressive how are you NOT going to meta that I am?
well at the time of posting my previous reads i had 1. phantoms, 2. kp, 3. ximbad on my list of suspects. then, after thinking more, i moved kp down a slot. i think you are deviating from your normal posting style a lot more than kp so i guess it is a personal choice that i am making.

I don't think that being aggressive is scummy, especially on day 1. On the contrary, I assume mafia will try to start the game with a low profile. Sure, experienced players may tap on that, but in that case I will say it's a null tell.

On the other hand, that "tag-team" accusation, to call it that, is making my "spider-sense" tingle.

Vote: imopen2
lol, i hardly meant that to be an accusation, just an observation that they came in immediately and addressed only to the small section about themselves and not the parts about others.

it seemed like a teamwork job. do you have any thoughts on this?

to clarify, I found your vote for yanni suspicious, i found your unvote for him suspicious in that you immediately voted for another person i felt was not being very scummy

I don't know how "Hahahaha What a guy!", indicates Yanni is the right wagon.

I have my reason for voting Manders. We are 129 posts in with her being pretty lurky. At least Yanni is attempting to post.

I'm not questioning if you have reasons, I'm questioning those reasons. Hurr durr.

"I have my reasons for voting manders"

Do you think that I'm other than a vulgar/rude person? I'm generally less concise than usual when I play mafia, but the game calls for that.

You're missing a verb. What do you mean by this?
unvote: yanni; vote Captain Murphy


Yanni wagon seems too thin to go anywhere.

So far I like what teefo has to say, but he hasn't really brought up anything meaty.
well to be fair there is nothing meaty to bring up because 90% of people
simply aren't posting enough to get a decent read on them

kpaca literally always plays exactly the way he is playing right now

no idea how PS usually plays but i assume he learned somewhat from kp

after re reading the thread it's obivous the imopen wagon is dumb and anyone with half a brain cell can tell he is just inexperienced, i'd look closer at the people voting for him because he seems like an easy lynch.

I didn't catch any team work. Mogadishu agreed with one of PhantomS' posts and then they have both been interacting with Yanni separately. That's how I'm seeing it. Care to expand on your observation?

The way he said it. Adding "interesting" and that emoticon instead of actually presenting some analysis as to why he thinks they are a team. It stroke me as trying to influence others' opinions. Scummy.

It seems more to me like it was an off the cuff statement from a new player who feels like 2 better players are ganging up on him, I could be wrong but I don't think I am.

this. maybe i was being paranoid but it felt coordinated to me. looking back at the posts it probably was not coordinated but it still seemed weird that they didn't comment on the parts of the post not directly related to them

Why not vote him? Its not an empty threat like a FOS, it applies pressure
and he wouldn't have been lynched.

Or are you just on the fence or perhaps don't want to be involved in a bad lynch?

I assumed FOS is one level of severity below.

To me it means: I consider this behavior to be slightly suspicious, but I wouldn't vote for a lynch unless we are meeting deadline.

Basically what I expected from my FOS was to have something like "Hey guys, there is this thing I noticed, care to share more on this?"

Though yeah in a sense a vote could do the same, but Okay Then
