Mafia #26: Roadside Picnic the Game

[judgemax]

Just curious about the change...

Why the need to correct my spelling error? They're are always plenty, but I don't remember any other corrections. Of coarse I could be wrong.

cause i am feeling nitpicky, and well, you gave me the opportunity, .. and, you wrong?..I am almost ready to faint, that you admitted there is even a slight possibility of it!

Soooo...are you dropping out? If you are too busy to play and would rather drop out, Pm Zsand instead of stating it in the thread...


Well, I can't seem to get a good enough reason to vote anyone other than ogre but I am not jumping on just yet. I think I am going to wait until tomorrow afternoon and see what happens during the day before I come to a decision...Night all!

I bet the stalkers are working on trying to convince everyone to throw me to the wolves so that there won't be any questions tomorrow.

All innocents should vote for me. Anyone that does not will be looked up with great suspicion tomorrow no matter the results. I found out last game that not following the crown on something this obvious will get almost immediate votes from Ice and fellows.

Just remember what I said today.

Those that gloss over my comments tomorrow may be stalkers. They don't want you to remember what I said.

Ogre- First of all, I don't intend on moving my vote. I would like to hear your opinions on any and all though (in case you prove to be innocent). I don't like such huge trains since it let's the scum hide too easily.

If you are in fact innocent, quit the "whoa is me posting" and try to put out some info that we can reference.

G/O.... What a game! G/O

I agree with that. Ogre, there is still just under 24 hours left for be an asset for the town...you trying to get everyone to jump on you is very odd to me. Why would you want a train on yourself?

You say that the stalkers are trying to convince everyone to "throw you to the wolves" but at the same time you are doing the exact same thing yourself. Quit pitying yourself for making a mistake and help. You are sounding like KOTD...

Why would Ogre want all the innocents to vote for him?

I also agree with what HN and jpap are saying in response to all of this.

More than his statement itself, but the way he is responding to it and handling it causes me to be more convinced.

I would like to see some more input from him and more input about him from other players. I think it is odd all we get from judge about this is a huh and a spelling correction. I would expect everyone to atleast have a thought about what Ogre has posted. I can see not voting for him, especially if there is a crowd voting for him anyway, but I would like to know WHY someone is not voting for him. Let's atleast discus it. Where is grace? Any thoughts?

Ogre, since there are only 4 stalkers, give us your top four. Since this might be your last day, your information could help us very much.

well, honestly, i think it was a mistake, and generally, i use the tones from other posts to judge whether it was a sinister mistake or not. the description of this game has some inconsistencies,and frankly, i am somewhat confused by this scheme myself, ..so, i am not jumping on a band wagon, just because its there, i still have twenty four hours to decide where my vote is best suited, .. so, thats why i have not voted OGRE yet.

I think the game description is fine.

At the end of the game description is this -

Stalkers are the equivalent of Mafia.
Military are communicating Innocents.
Civilian Scientists are Innocents that may NOT talk outside the game thread.

I (like a dweeb) left my pretyped intro at work with the game rules. But this plays like a normal Mafia Game.

You must vote each Day to lynch a suspected Stalker. You do so by typing IN BOLD, I vote to toss XXXXXX into the Zone.

If you do not vote, you will be thrown into the Zone and you WILL die.

You may not vote for yourself. You may not vote No One.

To change a vote say you retract your vote IN BOLD and revote.

There are special alien devices that will come in to play. Watch for my posts on those during the game.

I really do not seem too much to be confused about. I am concerned about the "special alien devices". My hunch is that these items help the stalkers.

You are a Stalker. You embrace the new technology and the dangers associated with it that have been left behind by the alien visitors. You have access to a limited assortment of Alien Technology that will be used at random intervals.

Kinda like blue mist in past games.

I hope this clears up any confusion you might have.

Confusion can be a dangerous thing in ACville. The last thing anyone wants to be is confused. Anyone else confused, besides Ogre and Judge?

So basically you're saying that Ogre is a stalker IYO but you're not ready to vote for him? If he slipped he is stalker,if he is drawing attention away from RB then your saying RB is stalker and so is Ogre. Since RB isn't protecting Ogre then they're not MOs together.

"Slipped" as in typed before he thought and thus put erroneous information out there that was conjecture in his head, not a fact he could prove. It happens. I am not protecting him, just thinking out loud in the thread. I am really not certain that he is a stalker, but I am also not certain that he is not.

To me, rb is acting strangley. I don't now for sure though, as I don't recall playing with him, but his posting style is far different here than on the boards.

Sounds like you fit the bill.

What happened to thinking rb was scum?

And what happened to drop Gracecat off the radar? Everyone was gunning for her, and now it's like she's disappeared. Her posting was a bit strange, and to skip twice seems silly on review of everything that was posted to correct her (this goes against my previous statement on the subject, I know).

The correct phrase is "I vote to toss XXXX into the Zone" but I will not be a pita about it so as long as your intention is clear I will count it.

About 23 hours till the end of Day 1.

Votes:
Gracecat: Swayde
Cory: Coler
Ogre: Ice; Cory; Johnlarson; Bkw; Plantling; Hooked; Lady G

I am willing to bet that all the Stalkers are on Ogre right now, whether or not he is. This train looks promising as an alibi, if one were to need it.


The only Civilian Scientist I am sure of is myself.

I don't know who I will vote for yet. I need to review a bit.

So here is where we can find the stalkers: Ice; Cory; Johnlarson; Bkw; Plantling; Hooked; Lady G

If Ogre turns out not to be a stalker, then I am sure that everyone on this list will be looked at real hard and deservingly so. I will not mind to be held accountable. His post and his responses speak for themselves. Now that there is some doubt, I really see no choice but to find out for sure what he is. I feel very strongly that Ogre should be tossed into the zone.

I am not afraid. I think Ogre is a stalker. If I am wrong, tomorrow is another day. If I am right, the town has one less stalker.

 

[Lady G]

I VOTE that yall toss me in the zone, sorry everyone I know that I said I would play, but I really dont have time .......more rank.......new missions....new schools.......gotta go.

You really should send a PM to Z saying you need out...otherwise just don't vote and you will UD anyway. Hate to loose you already...but I guess a war wont wait for our game LOL!!! Good luck and take good care of yourself!!!!

Lady G makes it home after spending what seemed like 2 days in the lab....is this day ever going to end she wonders to herself. It seems since this alien thing the days last forever.

Thinking about the days events, she pours herself a Crown with 7-up....trying to unwind. Ogre is in her head, could he really be a stalker? She didn't want to believe the rumors...but the things he said, and his reactions just do not add up, yes she thinks to herself he needs to go. The fact that so many are accusing him does worry G some...but what other reason could there be for his words and reasons..then saying that we can afford to loose innocents??? Wow, this town never ceases to amaze her!

Something Jensons said, popped in G's head...."I am really not certain that he is a stalker, but I am also not certain that he is not"....followed by "I am willing to bet that all the Stalkers are on Ogre right now, whether or not he is. This train looks promising as an alibi, if one were to need it".

Lady G puts her glass down, what exactly is it Jensons is trying to say?? Does she think (or know) Ogre is innocent or a stalker?? Is she trying to say those on him are stalkers too, trying to get the town against those that she knows to be innocent? By this statement that is what Lady is getting OR does she KNOW he is innocent and those that are on him are innocent also...again casting doubt on the innocent? Maybe the Crown is hitting G to quickly but does it look to be JENSONS IS A STALKER??? That she knows what the outcome will be on Ogre and is casting her doubt now before he is cast out???
