Mafia 50/50 The play..back to Basics..almost

Can you show where I am defending him TRS? I stated that I could easily vote for him based on his behavior, but chose not to jump on a train. As for my vote on you, I did not board a train, in fact I was the first vote on you. I think you and Luvbugs are a team and perhaps TRS too. If you feel I am so scummy than so be it. Not the first time I have been called mafia and I am sure it wont be the last.
Just ot clarify - My reference to random votes was directed at TRS's vote not your Blue. Now I am done with this conversation, I have to get back to work. More at lunchtime..........
I voted for TRS very simply because he voted and then recanted and changed his vote rather quickly. It was very odd and neither time did he give a reason. He did give some lame excuse of not paying attention yadda yadda which caused him to vote for the wrong person. I still think that is rather odd, but right now I see bigger fish to fry.
So, you coming after me for voting for TRS because he was randomly placing votes and not backing them up is in what way wrong and in what way makes me look like mafia?? If it makes me look like mafia, then you do too.
No order here, just collected bits throughout the thread so far from start to finish. Here's my rundown...
[AC] wing nut - Veteran player using an alias. Means he/she knows enough to handle a highly challenging role. High points for skill level; low points for personality. No bearing on anything. Takes cheap shot at me for being a beginner who's posting/active in the game. Guess that's supposed to rattle me. No matter... his/her random attempt to provoke me are easy to ignore.
Blueiz - Veteran player... speaks up early to generally throw some rocks when there's nothing tangible to work with yet. No big deal there.. it's a painfully slow start.
Dangerdoll + dirtydawg10 + noodles62 + cjtabares......... All 4 are veteran players who point me out as playing too well, when even I can see that I'm not and I'm obviously grasping at straws. Then cjtabares followed right behind to cast his vote on me. Then explained voting so fast because he had the wrong day in mind. Since Day 1 is mostly random, seeing 4 in a row like that seems more coordinated than coincidental. (Noodles then backs off immediately after cjtabares casts his vote. Odd...)
Luvbugz - Newbie.. Suggested TRS a possible double agent for being a last minute player, right AFTER johnlarson recanted his suspicion of TRS. Luvbugz follows up with a vote against TRS following the whole vote-switching segment that happened later. Seems ok.. but maybe a bit too consistent for someone new. Still, wouldn't expect other newbies to bounce around as much as I've been doing. Luvbugz is being cautious, which is much safer.
johnlarson66 - Veteran player. Points a lot at everyone who posts.. then votes off Rich for not posting much. Then switches vote to Virtuoso2K12. Already switching like that with nothing much to go on and a whole day to go before nightfall? Is that how a veteran plays this, casting a random vote based on post count? Not from what I've gathered reading up how to play this game... seems there'd be more of a reason for this than what he admitted.
rich311k - Veteran player.. makes a joke and says little else. (Need to watch him real close tomorrow.)
Dangerdoll points me out as playing well... then when noodles agrees with that, she "suggests" noodles is up to something protective. That didn't make any sense. DD doesn't strike me as someone who plays "hunches" or has "jitters." Weird.
Blueiz comes along to suggest DD is acting "too" innocent.
The Red Severum - late addition.. claims to be a newbie. Jumps right in and votes to lynch noodles... no reason given even after being questioned by many.
Blueiz.. coming on strong as a general antagonist (again). Stirring the pot it seems, but with nothing that really sticks. Gave me a hard time for offering an explanation why I understand the "role play" aspect of this game, suggesting I'm suspicious (or stupid) for saying so. In reality, I'd just had half a dozen veteran players suggesting I'm suspicious already because they didn't see how a noob could possibly grasp a very basic concept of this game without being coached outside of this thread. Plus, I'd been voted for lynching already (cjtabares) from this exact speculation. Darned if I do and darned if I don't, obviously.... but Blueiz' stance on this is very weak.. totally opportunistic. Any 12 year old knows how to lie effectively and is quite good at convincing someone they're innocent by just pretending they are - ask any parent.
The Zigman - Veteran player. Pointed out how he says absolutely nothing, yet has posted quite a few times. Threw my vote his way so he retaliated for no actual reason. Still, he has nothing to say.... looks like he's playing low-key here. Trying to not attract anyone's attention. That's put him on my list of scum suspects. Will see how this plays out before nightfall.
dirtydog agrees with johnlarson voting to lynch Rich. Agreed previously with DD, noodles, and Blueiz previously who pointed at me for a while. Nice tactic, dirtydog... following whatever the prevailing wind direction is so your motives don't get questioned? Next post... agrees with everyone else challenging TRS for not explaining his vote against noodles. (To which, TRS immediately changes his vote with flimsy reasoning.) Too much of a veteran player in a game like this for dirtydog to be so indecisive and "agreeable" still. Convenient. Claims to be busy (which may be true)..... will watch how he votes very carefully tomorrow.
Blueiz concurs immediately with dirtydog and further jumps all over another newbie (TRS) to the game. Then Blueiz votes to lynch TRS. That surprised me... expected her to hold off since we have all day tomorrow yet before nightfall.
Virtuoso2K12 - No posts at all? No use voting him off if he's going to meet with an (embarrassing) untimely death anyway. Non-existant isn't suspicious when it's someone not even participating.
[AC] wing nut noticeably silent after jumping in so fast. Could be a time zone thing... so we'll see what he or she offers tomorrow. BTW wing nut... mind giving us a gender to make this easier when we refer to you? I don't care if it's your real gender or not, just pick one for us. This "he/she" crap is annoying.
So..... conclusions? Nope, nothing much. But I can tell this is going to be a LOT of fun as the days progress. You guys are really good at this! No wonder you like playing these games so much.
This is great. I like the fact that you say you don't think you are playing very well and then you come out with this list. Not many Noobs come up with lists like this on day 1. You are into the game and are playing well for a noob. Hopefully you are helping the town. For now I think you are. We shall se how that plays out.
As for me agreeing with JL's vote on Rich...I guess I can see where that could get confused so I'll clarify.
JL said he would like to hear more from the bottom 3 posters and I said so do I. I meant that I needed to get myself into this game more and get some reading and posting done. I also stated why I was away from the game and that I would have more time from here on out.
So...I do see Kash as leaning more innocent IMO but I will be keeping an eye out for her posts. I also find it interesting with the recent Blue and Noods back and forth. At least it is turning into a good read on day 1.
Quite frankly this ring around the Mulberry bush with Blue and Luvbugz is making me dizzy! It is also taking up too much of my time and focus. :headshake2:

I think I am going to go ahead and vote for Noods... sorry but after today's events, it just seems to me that there is no other choice. Right, the ring-around-the-rosie is quite exhausting, but since my initial suspicion, I still haven't seen a good enough defense from you to change my mind...
I vote to lynch Noods
I vote to lynch Noods
Defense to what? The banter between me and Blue? Please explain what it is i am supposed to defend?
