Mafia 54:Vampires Return (The Play)

There's nothing to look at yet, sorry. Trust me, I read everything. You guys are all over the map, I'm just not flip flopping around about who I suspect. If I'm wrong about Zaff, I'll re-evaluate, but at this point in the game all you really have is a hunch.

No reason to get derogatory. I suspect Zaff for legitimate reasons, which I feel are a lot more legitimate than a lot of the nonsense people are posting paragraphs about.

The only thing Zaff has done to make me question my suspicion is NOT recruiting me last night. I kind of assumed he would do so if he was a vampire after the threat I posed. He didn't.

//game off.

Lani, there's nothing derogatory intended toward you as a person. Please don't be offended. This being a roleplay game, people sometimes act certain ways that are otherwise out of character for then for specific reasons. Nothing I've said about anyone should be taken personally.

Well.... except where I called JL a turd... because that happens to be true. ;)

What I've noticed from your posts so far is they often focus on Zaffy or your connection to Zaffy. But I haven't been paying attention to you that much (yet) and I'm just going back through the thread this evening now to get caught up again. So it's possible you've made posts I've missed.

We are all over the place, too, because nobody knows anything for certain. Don't let that bother you though because it's normal. As the game progresses along, it gets better.

//game on.
 
OK, rb, I take up the implied challenge to review Jpap and I actually found a couple of interesting things and more confusion... maybe.

Based on the last game, he just may. No hard feelings Wycco, you made it fun. :nutkick:

I vote to stick a stake in Jpappy


I choose reason "i" from above, but would change the wording to "him" rather than "her"

First vote for pap. I assume that Jpap took as the first day/first vote nonsense that it generally is and ignored it. But it would be weird if a vamp voted for someone to turn. It might not be so weird if someone were later turned (Zaffy).

I don't think there is a single player in the game who I would have second thoughts about turning.

I hate thinking like scum...it just seems to mess things up rather than go after people for what they actually posted. The seer is really the only one who should be trying to think like the LV at this point IMO.

Taken separately, this doesn't really mean anything, but it seems to me there are several posts in this general theme.


Ogre, I'm confused because I don't see any hint of this being a Kash vs. Coler day...most, if not all of the bickering is jsut between the two of them...why are you making this so dramatic?

hmm... OK, I can maybe see my comments as being 'too dramatic', but is it really that big a deal? And is it big enough to think me a vamp? (re: Jpap's current list)

Well I was wrong on DD. I sort of half-expected that because of our history.

On Zaffy, I dunno....

Right now I find it more interesting that Coler voted late on a singleton for no reason other than a hunch rather than seal the deal on someone (notabley Kash) who seemed to be at least a "suspect" on his list.

Rich did the exact same thing last game and I called him out for it...ironically it was also about Kash. No matter how weak a case he saw he did not want to commit. I think Coler was worried about looking bad.

I vote to stick a stake in Coler

for now.

OK, Jpap half expected DD to be innocent, yet she was the choice for the vote. In a couple of place (OK, at least one place), Jpap jumps on people for a random vote.

Yeah the comparison was more along the lines of choosing to vote random rather than for a suspect. 'Tis scummy...

Now it's scummy to vote random rather than for a susepct. Is 50/50 chance scummy or random or a suspect?

I half think this is a joke but if not why would the vamps try to turn a known innocent when they could get a PR instead? Just sayin...

JL's grilling of Kash is making me nervous but at the same time Kash's reasoning this game has been completely offbase...

It might be worth making it a Kash/Zaffy race to see what comes of it.

Basically do we want to risk losing an innocent to the lynch and then to the turn vs. possibly finding the first two vamps? I'm not sure if its the right move at this point but I am willing to see arguments for either side.

Who's a known innocent?

I see one problem with this...was JL around during that 6 minute timeframe? I dunno, because I wasn't so don't know if he was viewing the thread but what I do see is that he posted two hours before nightfall and then an hour after. Seems like an awful large space to be around but not post....:huh:

Not to mention that would have left it as a 4-4 tie after Zaffy went to DD and JL went to Zaffy. A 50/50 between DD and Zaffy so in no way could he have guaranteed lynching Zaffy and saving DD last night...

After reading this a couple of times, I'm still not sure if this is for or against John...

Jm you're looking more suspect now...

I find a couple things interesting...1) You did not have enough info (it being day one) to come up with any suspects yet you somehow had enough to pick out 3 possible innocents and 2) Those two people that you originally thought were innocent are on your suspect list...you seem far too reluctant to just go with the flow...what changed between then and now?

Actually I agree with this... but it's also somewhat contradictory.

JL, you are all over the place...

You quoted lanimret's vote and then said "I am not suprised you have not voted yet. Any suspects?"

HUH!? they voted in that same post.

You're usually a top poster in the game and are notorious for digging through posts, but right now you're creating more confusion than dirt...at least for me anyways.

The Kash v. Coler mini-showdown has a new twist...JL. I don't see the three being teammates just trying to stir up a bunch of controversy although since Zaffy is on the block and not Kashta I could see that plan working for the time being.

All I know is that the interactions between those three have been quite distracting and I'm pretty much ignoring it for now.

Suspect list:

Coler
Kash
Ogre
JL
maybe rocker or rb just because of how they are playing

Yeah I know there are only 3 vamps right now but probably only one or two on that list I would actually switch to voting for.

OK, now this is a mini-showdown. But when I called them on it yesterday, Jpapy jumped my butt about it and move me to possible vamp status because of it.

I realize that now.

I voiced my suspicions of both Kashta and Coler (hello, I'm voting for him) earlier so your interactions with them today are not going to automatically drop them off my suspect list.

And I've ignored most of the content of your posts but not the way in which you are posting things, which is why you are suspicious to me.

This is reference to John. So Pap is ignoring John's content, but still thinks him of being a vamp.

I still don't think Zaffy's switch was that of a mafia but voting for the second vote getter just in case it comes down to a tie situation again is very, very anti town IMO. We tend to learn something from votes even if it means losing an innocent. All saving yourself for the second time would do is put more heat on you the next day while the people who might have been looked at for lynching you (possibly a mafia in there) get a free pass to do it again. A very unnecessary cycle if you ask me...



Ok, so now it's working...

Lam-joke vote
Rich-no reason other than to vote
Ogre-voted to make it even

I do see what you are saying Coler, why Zaffy was even up for the lynch in the first place makes no sense.

I'll answer this. At the time, I didn't think Kash was a vamp and wanted to make it a multi-horse race. My choice was DD (I think) or Zaffy... I picked.


I thought I saw another Jpapy post where he basically accepts the random vote thing because he does it, but has accused others of doing the same thing. Maybe I misread.

Conclusion: I think Jpap is all over the place. I think his play style may have changed too. I think that some of his posts are even contradictory. I left out a lot of the posts where him and DD were discussing the rules.

The one thing I have about not voting him is that I agree with him about JMs current play (or lack thereof).

JM has done some switching that seems odd and is very quiet.

So the question is do I go for a good player or a quiet player, both of whom I think may be vamps.

For now I retract my vote for Zaffy and vote to stake JM.

Although JPap is a strong contender possibly scummy.


I would also like to note that a few people are quietly being ignored and don't seem to be making much todo about it. Noods is super quiet (must be on medication or something)...

No reason to get derogatory. I suspect Zaff for legitimate reasons, which I feel are a lot more legitimate than a lot of the nonsense people are posting paragraphs about.

The only thing Zaff has done to make me question my suspicion is NOT recruiting me last night. I kind of assumed he would do so if he was a vampire after the threat I posed. He didn't.

lanimret, you are something else. You place a vote on your friend first day and let them almost die. You then post that the Zaffy you know would have let it go to a coin toss.

I retract my vote on Zaffy

I think that Zaffy voted DD to save his own rear. Now maybe Zaffy is a vamp and did not turn his friend lani until today, which I doubt. I would expect if Zaffy was the LV that he would have turned lani first (or vice versa).
 
Are Orge and Kash having a contest on who can post the longest post?

Is there bonus points for most quotes?
 
Coler, who do you think Kash and Zaffy would pick?

I could see Kash picking you, ZS, jpap and even me. I wouldn't expect Kash to pick Zaffy.

I could see Zaffy picking Kash or any other player that has been active in mafia games.

I might have missed Coler's response to this...
 
last game noods claimed she was on vacation(which im sure she she was) but she kept making excuses about how she was soo busy and had no time... this game, she seems to be doing the same thing.

it may just be me but i think she is scummy.


I vote to stick a steak/stake into noodles.

of course, this vote may change.
 
My turn

the pap - leaning innocent
RB - how can you have an opinion yet
Coler - suspicious
JLZsand - leaning innocent
Jm - leaning vampire
Annie - no clue
Kash - very odd play but nure what to make of it
Ogre - leaning innocent

Explain how JLZsand is leaning innocent.

I knew some one was missing. How could i forget you. I obviously copied that from the start. forgot about the typo thing. I am impressed you are the only one who noticed, well not really you were just looking for your name. i will make you wait for your status.
 
To show off my multi-quoting skills -

Here Rb post out of nowhere -

I think the turn has been exposed....

noods asks for an explaination -

Plz splain. :confused:

Coler posts this in response -

you could be waiting a while for that to happen.

noods replies -

Very true. He seems to hold on to his "elusive image" very tightly....

Rb post this with no real information -
well....look at jpappy first.....more to follow...

Looks like noods looked at jpappy first and found that they both voted for Coler. appearently she has jpap and dawg as vampires -

Coler, I am not convinced that you are innocent however I am a bit intrigued that Jpap and Dawg both have their vote on you right now (2 that I am on the fence about). Would fellow vamps be so bold as to place their votes together? Doubtful but maybe they feel confident cause they have the majority of us running in circles....*things that make you go hhhmmmm* Just thinking out loud.....

Then with no new information from Rb, she states she is willing to take a chance, based on what or why we are not told. What is the chance? She changes to Jpap and asks others to join her, giving no real reason to vote for jpap -

I am willing to take the chance: I retract my vote for Zaffy (again) and vote to stick a stake into Jpappy

Anyone care to join me? I hate to fight vampires all by my little lonesome. (I have been told I have a very nice neck!) :eek:

Does anyone think this is strange?
 
Not so strange.. it sounds like a good idea. It's worth looking at along with everything else. We should be looking at everyone.
