Mafia #7 -- The Play

Exactly. Just think a few games back. I tossed a vote for Swayde on Day 1 in Mafia 5 or 6 (for a decent enough reason), and spent the rest of the game dodging rocks that she hurled my way. As an innocent, when anyone even mentioned the name 'Swayde,' she started kicking, biting, and flinging any objects within her reach. Now when Ice casts the first vote for her, she makes a little post and even ends it with an 'LOL'. That's not the Swayde I know....


Yesterday was my son's 12th birthday. I was in a great mood and I didn't have much time for posting.

Oh no, she said it again. She MUST be mafia...surely she can't actually just be trying to be HONEST??!!!

Way to ignore the posts I put up....all 3 of them, right before you posted.
 
I just want to point out I wasn't the one to start this train, in case it ends up bad.

Charlie and Mad both made points about it but didn't vote till after I did. Could they be mafia? Planting the seed and seeing if anyone waters it till it grows into a tree capable of hanging a noose from?

If Sway is innocent, though she isn't exactly fighting the train, they are 2 I would look at closely.
Here'a a post that makes me nervous. Day of the lynch, and you want to point out it was Mad and i that started all this, in case it goes bad. Makes me think you already know its going to go bad. With little to go on, Sway is the best thing i could come up with. Believe me, i understand its a thin case, but she doesn't seem to be fighting too hard to find a replacement. If a better case were made by someone i would change my vote. Others i am looking closely at:
Joander- skimming the thread, as well his odd posts especially the ones around the time he voted for sway
Jpap- seemed to wanna get his vote out early, makes me a little edgy
KOTD- what 3-4 posts now??? Is this mafia or a power role lying low??
 
Doesn't ANYONE find it the slightest bit odd that it's such a huge train on me so early in the game? That should set off red flags of every Innocent member of society.

Normally I would find such a quick-forming train a little suspect. However, with 2 competing mafia teams, I would expect the teams to try to play it 'straight town' when given a chance (ie, go with the flow to blend in with the townies, and if they help lynch a competitor it makes them look all the more 'townie'). The only problems with competing mafia, though, are 1) more mafia, obviously, 2) it allows the them to jump on trains to lynch competing mafium much earlier than in a normal game (this second one only being a problem because it makes it harder to look at a list of overall votes and analyze who might be mafia).

I'm not fighting back? Have you even read my posts? See this is why I told everyone I wouldn't be able to post much, because I CAN'T and I did not want that to be used against me. So much for being honest and open with people /sigh. I am an Innocent. I have read and do read every single post, many multiple times. The only case against me is what I basically brought against myself by trying to be honest. People are being very persistant and relentless to follow this train and it's not helping the town out in the least bit.

I love watching people like IceH20 try and backpeddle already. Pointing fingers elsewhere to shift the blame because he most likely knows this is going to end up badly for the people making the persistant accusations. But, with so many mafia in the game, it really doesn't surprise me at all that so many are so eager and quick to jump into a train head first without even bothering to see all the red flags going up around them.

I wasn't ignoring anything. Unfortunately, when I'm typing a post I don't have the abilitly to see the new ones that pop up until I hit 'submit reply.'

Here's the thing though, why on Day 1 (of all days) would you say something that you admitted would make you look suspicious? Does admitting that it would make you look suspicious then make you look any less suspicious? Not really, especially when there seemed to be no need to defend your future actions when you hadn't yet even been attacked for your past ones.

(BTW, congrats on your son's b-day...I'm sure that being lynched is a great way to finish off the celebration ;) )
 
Time for homeschool. I should be able to hop back on when it's over in a few hours.

Swayde heads out to her store to open it up for the day. The demand on Slurpees has been exceptional and she's glad to see that she's able to provide a good service for the people of her community. She hopes that Mee-Mee will bring by some of her eclairs today. The rumors that she's been accused of being a criminal have her very concerned and she's afraid that she may not have another chance to savour the delicious pastries.

Because, I am too honest for my own good apparently. It almost got me lynched in my first game. I couldn't keep my Seer identity hidden in the second game, and here I go again, getting myself into trouble by being overly honest and open. Oh well, I guess it's a character flaw, but I can live with it. I just won't get to last very long in these games apparently.
 
Hey guys, I know I've been slack. My computer started freaking out and I couldn't use it for most of the day until Malefic got home and showed me how to clear the stored cookies and stored files. Now I know how to do it! Then our internet was down while we booted someone who had signed on to our wireless network and we had to figure out how to make it an encrypted network so no one else could use it. Ugh. After all that i was really too annoyed to concentrate, so we watched Day of the Dead 2: Contagium and went to bed.
