Mafia #18 The Santa Game

[Coler]

Since I can't edit:

It wasn't Clown who started it. It was actually Coler and Plant that brought up the innocence or lack of for Blitzen. So replace Clown with Coler/Plant.


Clown was put into my head because he posted above me about the same thing.

hmmm...check my post...I simply queried how Blitzen counts as an innocent character where his ultimate influence must help the Grinch, unless he is willing to stay native, should he cross over to the dark side.

I would be more inclined to focus on locating evil elfs...who will have an evil from the get go agenda.

At this point I find the detailed discussion of whether or not people should lynch Blitzen asap a little scummy - based on previous games people who get centrally involved in such issues are often bad guys. It is a distraction tactic...also a way to separate yourself from other bad guys on non-central issues...also an easily plotted co-ordinated approach to posting early on, before they can focus on an innocent who may have posted loosely (often some unfortunate newbie).

I would also like HN to explain his vote for me because if it isn't a joke vote its dodgy.

Say what???

WHAT

But people are to quick to jump on everything and anything in these games so little traps end up being tripped without any answers.
I never thought of how to find or kill Blitzen as it wasn't part of the plan to begin with. I was looking for elves, not ways to kill reindeer.

Well, saying (or agreeing with) something that might be perceived as anti-town is a good way to get jumped on, whether a trap or not... especially on Day 1

As far as this Blitzen thing we need all the townies to win, and if my understanding is correct we shouls either start for the evil elves or try to lure out Blitzen

Interesting idea.... what are some of your thoughts on luring Blitzen out?

I dont feel that too much time should be taken to concentrate on the Blitzen, its only one person..There are plenty of other scum to hunt out aswell..So, i dont feel all the concentration show be focused on that person..

I have a great time with my nephews, nieces, great nephews and nieces.. I fill them full of sugar, shake them up and send them back home to my brothers and sisters.. :headbang2:

OK, that sounds very evil. A hint?

Also wanted to remind the noobs that when you place a vote to explain why you're voting that way.
Just placing a vote with no reasoning is an evil tactic thats sure to get you looked at and lynched if it happens enough.

So noted thanks. Have any other helpful hints like um.. who is evil around here?

The best hint i can give you right now is just to tell us your evil, so we can bump you off and have one less evil person in the town

Don't kids usually leave carrots for the reindeer??? Don't take the milk and cookies Santa. It's a trap.

I'll give you the advice that was given to me.

People who make suspicious posts make good suspects, because they look suspicious.

People who don't look suspicious make good suspects, because they don't look suspicious.

I hope this helped.

I would disagree. The idea was proposed that we lynch an innocent early, in hopes of preventing them from becoming scum down the road...some may consider that anti-town. IMO that merits discussion, especially on Day 1 when there's not much else to go on at this point.

I find it interesting that you're not interested....
