I don't know… voting because of 'suspicious wording' seems like a bit of a stretch. When I read their posts, I don't see anything that points towards them being in the Mafia (except for Seal's post above this one). If we're voting on wording alone, then 404 or Raptur would be safer bets since they're trying to discourage analysis and encourage random voting (something that will probably increase the Mafia's survival chances).

vote lambob

Votes so far (11/19):

Wheatley: II
Iambob: IIII
BSOD: I
RJ: I
Seal Clubba: III

Updated for Ashbot and Riyku.

See below for further updates.

Youve told us who you suspect and you havent voted either.

Yes, but I know of that tactic. Why would I reveal it if I would be shooting myself in the foot? I just withheld my vote so that I could throw it in and help us gain a close tie.

Edit: People, focus your votes on three candidates. Keep all numbers as close as possible. This plan won't work unless we cooperate.

Updated to include Algernon.

In all honesty, I don't suspect Wheatley. Not right now, at least.

Edit: And I thought Wheatley was up to four.

@Wheatley: If I could make a suggestion, vote for Seal Clubba so that we can have four votes for each candidate. And from there, who ever has to vote will continue to do so. Hopefully they will continue to keep a tie going.

Sigh… I'm not convinced by any of these arguments. I don't suspect anyone enough to come to an informed decision, but just so I don't end up wasting my vote, I vote Seal Clubba. This 'give 3 people even votes' thing better work.

Wheatley wrote:

So seal clubba is my vote.

Already done, Bob. Feel free to re-count if you want, I could be wrong.


So it looks like we're waiting for Random, Witch King, BSOD, Nikolaki, Lolrus, and Seal Clubba himself.

I suggest the medic to heal Ashbot btw.

As he is the only person we can be sure of isn't mafia, they of course want him dead.


As for my vote: Wheatley

This is based on the 3,4,4 vote from opspe. This turns it into a 4,4,4 voting. Hopefully this will result in cleaning some names.


Delete that, I change to rapturjesus to keep the voting at a 3-way tie. As sealclubba voted Wheatley.

I'm not sure if we should have more than three candidates. This will mess with the system since the mafia can vote for someone else, throwing our plan off. What do you all think? Would it be smart to ask that we focus our votes on only three candidates? Or is everything fine as it is right now?

Edit: Also, there are only two ways for this phase to end. Every able person has to throw in their votes (able as in villagers). Or we run out of time (48 hours). We have plenty of time right now.

Holy crap! Why did I have to be asleep when all of this happened!?

The mafia killed Verbose? And he was Sheriff?

Okay people lets not panic and get this together.

First of all, Algernon my comment about the doctor was a joke. Not an actual suggestion to the doctor! I said that because Verbose made a joke about killing Iambob

I wont give the Doctor any suggestions because if the Doctor acts upon those suggestions, the Mafia will dodge it.

Now the first round is always the hardest because we have no real leads to vote on at this time. Until we get some more leads I'll withhold my vote for now, I need some more time to think on this one (I woke up only recently you know)

Beside's I see that we already have a tie in place and a tie is good. I'm not sure if that needs changing, what do you think Bob?

@BSoD: Why would you delete your comment? You said you suspected me at the bottom of your post and then suddenly deleted it… Interesting.

Edit: Wait, five mafia? Should we rethink our current tactic or is everything fine as it is?

Last edited Jan 12, 2012 at 09:37PM EST

Fine, I suspected you but then I had second thoughts. Maybe you aren't so suspicious after all because you actually have been playing like you usually do so far.

I realized that my comment was a bit out of line and was the product of not enough careful thinking so I removed it.

I only just woke up so I'm prone to speaking before I think here.

Also, just sayin'- Five mafia.
Sorry bout that, I was eating dinner.

It's up to 5 now? My bad.

And yeah, the 3-way-focus system seems to be working.

Also BSOD: Y U wake up so late?

Last edited Jan 12, 2012 at 09:40PM EST

I don't mind switching my vote, but I rather not take the risk that the others forget to switch votes. Getting us nowhere.

With 5 mafia, the current voting probably works. But I'll wait till at least one other switched votes before I switch. This shouldn't be a problem because we still have more than 24 hours.

Last edited Jan 12, 2012 at 09:48PM EST

a one in four chance of being mafia….
so that means anyone could be mafia here….
at least one mafia voted, i know that.

Bob-We had 3/11 last time, and its more fun now. also, imma be gone ocer ghe weekend so the game is either on hold or verbose is hosting. If verbose accepts, nonvillagerz pm him your roles. If not, seeya tuesday. Also, sorry abour spelling, I m posting from a kindle touch.

You guys be deductin'? Good. I haven't mapped out how it would work with 5 mafia, but seeing how a tie vote works to figure out where the mafia is voting.

  • For those new to the game, mafia votes don't count.
  • So when a final tally of villagers' votes are counted, mafia votes' will not matter.
  • So if the final count is Person X: 5 votes, Person Y: 5 votes, and Person Z: 3 votes, there were only 2 mafia remaining, and the final result was a tie between Person X and Person Z…
    • …then you could conclude that the two mafia voted for Person X.
    • This is because no tie occurred between Person X and Person Y like we'd expect, but instead occurred between Person X and Person Y.
  • That means that the two mafia are 2 of the 5 people who voted for Person X.
  • It also means that everyone else cannot be mafia.

Mathematical impossibility.
 
 
I'm not great a figuring out suspicious activity, so I prefer this method to figure out who is the mafia. Since it's the first round, it generally doesn't matter how you vote or how you get to your vote, but it's best to make the vote close to a tie to determine where (and if) the mafia is voting.

tl;dr Deduction works if you use it right. Use it as a tool. Get in on it. BSoD among others have seen it in action.


Also, ItizPWNED is going to be absent from the forum for a while and cannot run the game. Since I'm actively involved and actively dead, he asked if I would become narrator. I can do that, since I'm back online frequently again, but that also means I can't help the villagers in anyway. I'd be neutral.

The alternative is to find someone else who dies, to find someone outside of the game to run it, or to put the game on hold until PWNED is back (likely at the end of the weekend.)

I have a message from him, but I don't want to save a screepcap, upload it to imgur, and post it. Stuff like that takes a while for my computer.

Scratch that.

Are you guys OK with that?

Hooray, Verbose is here to fully explain his plan. I was never very good at explaining math. I just solved problems, never cared for how I did it as long as I got it right. I have no problems with you being temporary host.

Edit: @BSoD: He did although he put it with his response to my mafia statement.

Last edited Jan 13, 2012 at 12:07AM EST

Third. I trust Verbose to be impartial, except when it comes to sports. And that deduction plan sounds good to me – it's only logical.

And to my estimation, we're still waiting on Lolrus and Nikolaki. I know Niko lives in AUS, so he should be getting on in the next few hours probably.

Dang, got the screencap in but not the mistake I made before the 30 minute limit.

  • This is because no tie occurred between Person X and Person Y like we’d expect, but instead occurred between Person X and Person Z. I had originally typed "Person Y."

Mmk.


33 hours remaining in the 1st Day.
 
 
I'll be back from work in about 20 hours, but I will have no obligations until I count the votes.

And I thought about counting the votes on the thread so everyone can see, but I feel as if that is organizing the information to the benefit of one side and/or the other. Feel free to do it yourselves, however.

  • Feel free to shoot me any questions you have about the game mechanics. Don't feel shy about asking, because I may interpret the rules differently from ItizPWNED.
    • Example: I ask that Sean and Gus will NOT give their information if they die.
You can no longer participate in the game if you are killed, though a dead villager can still help influence the villagers during the day phase… Other dead characters are not allowed to post anything related to the game once they have been killed, as they know too much.
  • If I can't answer any question fairly, then I simply will not respond to the question at all.
  • Also, players other than "Villager," please PM me your roles.
  • I will be neutral towards each side from this point on even when I am no longer narrating this game. I will know too much.
  • Also to clarify, Sean and Gus, I'm classifying two turns as two cycles of day and night. So you will not receive the subtle hint until the end of the 2nd Day's Phase/ItizPWNED says otherwise.

    Verbose died on first turn? AND HE'S SHERIFF? God-damn it……………
    I vote Iambob.
    He talks about elaborating in the first turn. That seems pretty suspicious to me.

    Nikolaki, we're establishing a system here. Please reassign your vote to someone other than me, Seal Clubba or Wheatley.

    Now that sounds suspicious…or maybe you're just trying to cover your ass.

    As it stands before Niko's vote, you, Seal, and Wheatley are all tied at 4 votes each. Only two people have yet to cast their votes, so obviously someone is going to get it. So Niko, vote for whoever you want.

    Wait, how does that sound suspicious? I'm just trying to maintain the tie that we have all been trying to keep. You do bring up a good point though. We do have another vote waiting. And I still believe it would be better to keep it at just three candidates.
