MAFIA #5 The Play.....

[Sploke]

At dusk in ACville, the sun is still hot from the day, and dust blows on the wind through the quiet town. In the distance, a long shadow approaches the town square; a new face. A black horse, dusty and sweaty, slowly carries its rider, who appears practically asleep from the day's ride but is ever wary of his surroundings. Two things are immediately evident about this newcomer, to the neighbors who peer through their blinds: His slow, deliberate motions that indicate many day spent in saddle, and the .45 strapped to the cowboy's belt. He walks his horse to the front grass of a newly purchased house, drops the reins to let him graze for a bit, and wearily lays down under the shade of a tree and drops off to sleep, thinking about the many eyes watching him from behind shrouded windows.

G'afternoon all! I spent the morning watching my sister's softball team get there little tushes kicked! It was sad . This is already an interesting game. I think Coler came out like he did to make a splash and get people talking. 13 pages in, he is playing, imo, much like he has in every other game. JO, dude, what are you doing?! If you are mafia, your buddies need to take you out, just to protect themselves!! If you are not mafia, I don't know what to do with you. By repeatedly playing the "I'm confused" card, you spike many people's mafia-meter. This wll be an intersting 1st night! I think I will hold off voting until tomorrow. ~brandy

O
On one hand I want to vote just to prove that I'm as willing to take a wild guess as anyone else. However, if I vote for an innocent, will I look like mafia? If I wait and vote after everyone else, will I look like mafia trying to blend in? If I jump on a train with everyone else, does that make me look guilty?

Yes to all

Please tell me you're just role=playing with the .45 thing and not the real vigilante.

BTW: I think it should be obvious to everyone... if you're a special character DO NOT say anything about it.

now why would i be TRYING to act like a mafia? As i have said before, i just do not know how the game is played. It seems odd to me that coler would just come out and say that "Im and Innocent dont vote for me".... its just not what you do... but then again, when you think, why would he come out and say that if he WAS indeed a mafia, wouldnt you think he would know that he was calling attention to himself by saying that, and wouldnt he not want to call attention to himself?

Or is he possibly thinking the same thing as me, that he wants US to think that he wouldnt be calling attention to himself if he was a mafia, so he does just that, even though he IS a mafia.

This is the post that made me stop and think, "Wow! This guy either really slipped up and called out another mafia member, or he really needs to think a bit more carefully before he posts. You are trying to be logical, and talk out your thoughts for us on the board, but the way that you are doing that is feeling suspicious to many of us who have played the game before. There are 4 other games to go back and read through. There is very little excuse for the "I'm new, I'm confused" postings. We really can't tell who is/is not mafia right now. That's all. ~brandy

lol, i just cant explain the way i think so good 8)

Hi,

Well, heres my list of my three top suspects:

joander- either a very dumb mafia slip up (like me in the fourth game lol) or just a newb mistake.

sploke-I don't know....just seems...I don't know lol But something seems fishy....

IceH20- Meany in game four to poor little CL (my Cories are gonna get you)! Other wise very involved in the game!:grinyes:

CL

Heres advice especially for the new players.

After you type your post reread it. If it sounds to you like you might be portraying a mafia vibe then we're going to think you are.

Always proofread what you type. Its no fun lynching an innocent because they posted something that makes them sound guilty.

But be wary of the new guys also. They may use that to their advantage. I can't stress enough that roles are random and just because they are new to the game doesn't mean they aren't mafia. Only way we will know unfortunately is by lynching them. But hopefully that helps others to quickly pick up on the non vibe type posting we need to keep us all safe.

You're kidding right? The only way to figure out 1 group from another is from posts. If all posting was done away with we wouldn't get slip ups like the one from Joander.

I could see the mafia wanting less posts since they know who is who but an innocent wanting that would be suicide.

Anyone that has followed the games knows it involves lots of reading.

Haha, wow did I post that?! Dumb idea:wall:
