The Thing - Mafia Style [Winner=The Thing]

by **ga7** on Sun Jan 11, 2009 6:25 pm

I didn't have much time this weekend but would like to point out that Ace you suck ass for wasting another day to town, and that as F1fth pointed out all the arguments for me being town are still there. I felt dumbfounded by Will being a townie after all the scummy crap he spouted, which is also still true; you just have to read again how he behaved when he got pressure on him to realize it wasn't town-like.

That said, obviously I led bad wagons and harmed the town; and it gives me consolation to know that we're still 10 town for 2 scum; right now the only valid reason for my lynch is to confirm that there is indeed only 2 scum; starting the next day at 8 town 2 scum which is still not so bad.

Frankly at this point I'd much rather get vigged by Ace tonight instead of wasting a day, because there is too many people that are just laying low and not proposing any solutions right now (hell in a game with a majority of good players I would have never been able to lead several lynches like that sadly heh). I feel it would be a better course of action to explore other leads, check vote counts, etc etc than just lynch another townie. Obviously I'm not the doc so it's no big loss either way and I won't feel very confident about proposing any suspect after that bad streak (although I still think Pmc's lead on Stroop is probably the most solid thing we got during these past days) so there you have it.

Either way, please think townies, reread if needed, try to grasp reads on the remaining players, as LYLO will come eventually and I'd hate to see everything thrown out by carelessness as happened a fair bit recently.

The bolded part is what confirms to me that ga7 is scum, and we have the correct target; town wouldn't need or want to lead bandwagons, and shouldn't be on them in the first place.

Explain me how you reach a lynch without a semblance of wagon, genius.

Yeah, we can't count on ace for much. To bad he has such an important role.
Also, why do I feel that ga7 may just talk his way out of a lynch?

If he does, I'm fairly certain he'll end up dead by rogue tonight, so no big deal there, really.

Unless the doctor who supposedly knows that he is town decides to keep a confirmed towner alive. Although I am not sure doctor protects against rogue in this game...

I lead wagons all the time as town. All a bandwagon is is when a lot of people vote for someone. It doesn't necessarily have negative connotations.

But spiesr, that's a good point to bring up. We don't know if doctor can prevent kills from the rogue. The reason it matters is that if ga7 happens to be lying (which I find doubtful), that means the doctor must have been assimilated. If the doc can protect from the rogue, we can't count on the vig's night kill to go through unless that person is lynched.

That's why I think it's important that we try to find and lynch one of the two scums to help verify that our doc is still with us, which would also determine ga7's alignment.

I don't know if it'd be such a good idea for the doc to try protecting me from Ace because the thing would probably try to get Ace then. Though it's debatable whether Ace will do any good ultimately so I guess I'll leave it for the doc to WIFOM

Either way Ace should target me.
It's true that it would finally clear me this time since in this situation the doc couldn't have gotten recruited (since our power roles lose their powers if recruited).
