Mafia 80: Ghost Hunters

[jbradt]

I am here. It has been a busy day. I have read the thread and will respond to a few things in a moment.

First I want to get this out of the way.

Jb, you always suspect me on day 1. Put that aside and wait until I am through with my posting tonight. If you have questions, I will try to answer them as I go along.

Kashta is currently in the scum den( the bedroom) with her computer while I am out here. However, I have been away from her for as long as I have been away from the game so I cannot guarantee how long the different locations will remain in effect. (guess who wins with my time)

First of let us go back to the gunslinger game. I wanted to shoot FF right after he started posting. I didn't because if I had I would have had nothing else to go on from there. Also if I was wrong, the town would probably resurected me just so they could lynch me. (no offense FF) :thm:

I am getting the same feel about FF this game. (as my posts have shown)I don't think he was recruited, I think he is the murderer. This would explain his WIFOM posts trying to name those he feels would have been his choices. It was,IMO, an attempt to get the town to look at those he would feel most threatened by.

Originally, I was thinking throughout the day, that he may have turned his brother so that he could help him learn the game.

I no longer feel that way after reading his responses to Kashta's questions. His brother could not have helped him write the responses he gave. He turned somebody good.

Jb, you are the only one that has ever successfully controled him as evil. Not that you are the one turned just making observations.

He has also stated how much he admires LR and wants to be able to play like she does.

At any rate who he turned will be discovered as time goes on. There is, however, no doubt in my mind what his alignment is. I read him in the gunslinger game but did not act on it. I will not make that mistake again.

I vote to take the soul of FF.

If something else comes up that is better, then I will change if I get the chance before nightfall.

I'm aware of my penchant for suspecting you, Wiz... and I'm weighing it appropriately.

It gets mentioned in nearly every game that I "controlled" FF. That's not entirely true. There were times when I was able to reign him in a little bit... and I had to stay up for at least 24 hours straight to do it, but mostly I just used him as a red herring. FF fully has the ability to post thoughtfully, he just generally chooses not to. I don't see him posting intelligently as necessarily being a scum tell. If anyone wants to check my reasoning, I don't remember the game number, but it was the RailRoad one...

Yes I do remember, as I said I wasn't saying that you were the one turned. I was merely making an observation.

To the case at hand, even Kashta stated that she could not have answered her questions as succinctly as FF did. No way that I will believe that he wrote that post on his own.

When I woke up and read his posts this morning, the first thought that came to mind was it can't be this easy. That is almost exactly what I posted in the gunslinger game right after his first few posts were made.

I cannot allow myself to second guess when I get a read like that again.

Time for dinner, will be back later.

I totally see where you're coming from, and my vote may end up there yet. I'm just not ready to place it right now. We've got a whole day left...

I am yet to see any seriously and evident scummy behaviour besides ffs quick suspicions. but i believe that has kinda been answered. i believe in this format, seeings as there is only two evils at this point, it would be easier for them to lie low than rather get involved in everything. i think we should start widening our thoughts here.

Well then, enlighten us. nightfall is tomorrow. who do you suspect? Who has shown scummy behavior?

As was evident by the time stamps on my posts, not everyone always gets back to the thread in time to take two RL days to make a decision.

What will you be basing your decision on?

 

[the wizard]

Wizard, other than this being a general rule of thumb... what makes you think Lady G made random choices?

She didn't tell us her assignments were random.

I know that Chill already answered this but I am trying to go back through and answer all posts that were directed at me.

LG has mentioned before that she involves her children with what she is doing by having them draw names from a hat.

That said, the purpose of my post to FF was to state that generally the assignments are random so he COULD have received the assignment discussed, (murderer to be precise)

 

[the wizard]

Could you at least try to get ur facts strait? Fer starts, i came on about half an hour later. And then about 45 minutes passed between the turn and my first "I would have turned these people" post. It was in response to the turn itself.



At 7:38 LG posted the turn.



And at 8:15 i came in with my first non-joke post. It was u-n me hay, and no one else was talkin. So i figured, may as well start puttin ideas out there.

Now, can someone PLZ answer my question?! If you were the Murderer who would you have chosen from the people playing as your teammate? I will accept anything EXCEPT "I don't know". IDK is not a good answer, JP!

Now stop distracting me! i have math homework to do!

This has been bantered about all day. To be honest, IMO, the only way this would help the town would be for the murderer to come out and state truthfully who they would pick.

You stated that you would pick the best players, yet you have me at the top of your list.

IMO Pappy and chill to just mention a couple are much better than I am. you put top notch players at the bottom of your list, which makes me think you are trying to divert the towns attention to those you feel most threatened by.

Just to play along as others have done to appease you, my first two picks would be JB and Chill. What order? IDK. Why? They are good players, I was evil with Chill once before, I believe we won that one. JB, I have never been on a communicating team with him but think it would be fun.

 

[the wizard]

it does? well, im glad you thought my response was well worded and succinct and to da point. Thats what i intended, after all, to answer him. And its cool that i had good spelling, im getting better (thanks spellcheck)

You should stick to checking in before posting in the game thread. Your post everyone is saying was so well thought out and so succinct was in response to Kashta. (and trust me on this one, I guarantee she aint no him. )

This is why I am so certain of FF this time around. He responds with such a magnificent post I would challenge Mad, Ice, Dawg, or any of our top players to match it in the course of playing and being in the thread so much, yet he can't even remember which post is being referred to or who he used it to reply to. It was not written by FF.
