Mafia 103...the play

It was all day one banter, especially since only 14 posts into the game as you noted. Most all day one posts are pretty much meaningless, but you know that don't you? I'll chalk it up to you being loopy, since you suggest it anyways, over trying to turn day one chit chat into a mountain.

Just have a bit more time on my hands than the rare past few games I got involved in after game Mods requested it. But those pesky kids kind of ruined them anyways. Hopefuly not this time.

All votes I have ever done in any mafia game are a gut feel...I don't follow the crowd in general....get over it.

I'm not sure I would agree that every vote of yours has been a gut feel RB, you were a more investigative player back in earlier games. That being said, it still doesn't make me any more comfortable for you to admit that you are going to be voting that way. It's a nice plan for mafia since it gives them an excuse to not spend time digging for a reason to vote.

WIFOM much? What's with the drive by, Labby? Do YOU think that's what happened?

Not sure I understand how that post of Lab's was a WIFOM post. RL aside though it did seem strange she posted that and disappeared...especially considering how much activity has resulted from Neph's responses.

I'm channeling my inner "ZSand" right now...

If you could be good at any summer olympic sport what would it be?

I was originally going to say women's beach volleyball because of the great view but then I would have to shave my chest...so I'm going with being on the Men's Basketball Team.

Men's tennis. Love the sport and might as well assume I could be on the ATP tour as well, which would be sweet!

hmm dawg thanks for pointing that out. having been a newb as scum at one point i know i always checked to see if i was saying the right things. this plus him coming in for a quick vote screams scum to me. i vote to lynch neph.

I don't like how AAF latched on to Neph so quickly with a vote...especially since using the term "screams scum" is such a strong way to categorize someone at this stage in the game. There are also a couple subsequent posts of his that are alarming because of how hard he is pressing Neph.

That and Labby pointing the finger at me because I didn't show up til the last minute. In my head I wouldn't want to make such a big splash if I join in at the last second so it seems to me she wanted to bring someone into the spotlight besides herself (which she successfully did to me before. It's too similar to me to write it off). She's good at inciting others (as I'm learning about some others also)

When was Lab in the spotlight though? Obviously she wouldn't work to put herself there...

Lol it's all good. I would expect no less =) I'm looking at lab because she pointed out my showing up and tossing a vote in last minute as something more suspicious than I believe it looked. She's very good at putting the spotlight on someone else in order to keep from being under it herself. She's reserved and keeps kinda low key except when she's inciting us others. I've only played one game with her (I'm not sure if we are allowed to mention previous games. Please tell me if I'm committing a faux pas) and based on that experience and the similarity between her calling me out and what I've experienced previously it lines up too well for me not to think she's mafia

Realistically, out of all the things that happened on D1 how could you not rate your last minute random vote as one of the scummiest things? Yes, it may not have been such a big deal in the grand scheme of the game, but considering your reaction and OMGUS-like vote on Lab it doesn't exactly look great for you...

I also am not comfortable with you basing Lab's entire game play on one game...especially when the dynamics are drastically different. Most vet players are so good because they don't change styles from game to game, and they play that way regardless of their role.

At this point, I've gotten caught up.

I still don't know what to think of RB. But I never am. It very well could have been clever day 1 chatter, but it still feels like more than that. Really nothing more than a gut feel here so far.
AAF seems to be pushing pretty hard at Neph.
I noticed that Labby kind of "floated" the idea about Neph stopping in late to drop a vote. It doesn't seem like her to leave a drive by idea without any other thoughts at all. and I don't believe for a second she was sorry to lose FF.
Pappy seems pretty low key so far.

Nothing is nearly enough to vote on for now.

Sorry, I worked this afternoon/evening. It was my last full day though (I have to go in tomorrow morning for a few hours) so I will be around more consistently now.

im starting to feel less sure of him. bc of of his explanations. im definently willing to switch to someone else if something comes up.

This pretty much puts you to the top of my list AAF...I don't like extreme backtracking.
 
What about his explanations makes you less sure of voting him?

You said that Neph's late vote "screams scum" but your reason for not being as sure is because he explained away his copy/paste post issue. It seems to me that regardless of whether or not Neph did get that post from the scum den that you should be pretty sure that he is scum because of his late vote.

Up until post #165 you were still grilling Neph and then a couple people point out how hard you are pressing for Neph and you take a noticeable step back. Pretty extreme IMO given the circumstances.

i dont think i was "drilling" him. i dont drill. i push maybe but i dont drill.

she wasn't. I just think she's good at saying something that makes others wonder. Even better if she's on a team the way her post didn't seem like too big a deal and then how I ended up really getting questioned it started to seem a little suspicious

Yeah it came together too well for me to feel like it was just a knee jerk OMGUS vote, especially since it's as early as it is in the game.

And yeah, you're right. After my posts I really did try to step up and say that I may be way off base specifically because I've only played one game. I guess we shall see.

On another note I wonder if the doc or investigator are good enough to act on the info they're given without giving themselves away. I like the semi complicated setup of this game (as opposed to the zero communication of the last game). Knowing there are people plotting against me outside the game makes it that much more interesting.
 
Wasn't a knee jerk OMGUS* lol not was. Sorry

Ha I just realized I actually did type that sentence correctly so this post wasn't needed. You get my point though.

Sorry I missed some of the most active hours. Was one of those long days today (yeah you know those). The weekend is here though and it seems pap is outta work. I'm interested in seeing more of you pap. You always blindside with your reasoning. Always very well done

It should be slightly concerning if it is "coming together" this early in the game. You will end up being wrong more times than not...

Don't take this as me saying you shouldn't come up with theories though because you should. The problem is that you seem almost too sure when it comes to Lab and you're basing this off of playing one game with her. She's a crafty player, no doubt, as evidenced by last game...but you have focused a lot of time explaining why you think she is scum (fairly understandable with all the defensive posts) and mentioned only a few names in passing as to who you think her teammates might be. I would hope that you intend to branch out a bit more on your suspicions if they are well placed.

I will certainly have more time to be around, but it is still the weekend so don't expect that I will be here a whole lot more the next couple of days. I'm not sure exactly what you are getting at though with your description of my gameplay there...thanks?
