Mafia 62- The Play

:silly:

Annie - there seems to be a problem with your PM box. Cannot send you PMs....Just thought you should know. Tried to make a revision but could not. :huh:

You are right. I have been refreshing the page regularly and recieved no new PM's.

I just went to my inbox and I am unable to respond to any messages, and I dont have any new messages.

There is something wrong with my PM box.

TO ALL PLAYERS

I AM UNABLE TO SEND OR RECIEVE PM's AT THIS TIME.

I WILL NOTIFY A MODERATOR OF THIS PROBLEM.

PM'S MUST BE SENT TO:
stryker_van_jungle@live.com

No it isn't full. There is something wrong with it entirely. I cant even PM a Mod to report the problem.

All Pm's will have to go to stryker_van_jungle@live.com from here on out.

I wish I had provided an alternative email address in the event something like this happened from the beginning

//Game off

Annie, you can't receive PMs right now because of your post count (only 3). The site has been spammed quite hard by new bots registering to send spam messages to members by PM. For that reason, a new policy just went into effect.... in order to send or receive PMs at all, the member must first have a post count of 5.

The GCC, Marketplace, Photo Gallery, and a few other forums do NOT count towards post count. This problem will clear up for you once you make 2 more posts somewhere where they will count.

Very sorry I wasn't here earlier to relay the PM I received. Good luck to all (especially townies!!!).

//Game on.
 
If she knew she was done for then why would she put a 2nd mafia on it. I think she put her own name on it because she knew she was done with.

I have not read anywhere that says the snitch could not put their own name as the one mafia member.

I might feel differently if my name was not on the list.


Actually since she posted she tried to make a revision its possible she tried to send in a new note without Razz on it and wasn't able to do so.

In either case most would think that only 1 mafia would be on the list and not waste time lynching the rest.
What is interesting is that 3 of the names on the list weren't voting Noods and are on my list of possible mafia.

If we would hardly consider 2 on the list what are the odds we'd consider 3 on the list? Are you the 3rd on the list JL?
 
So for now I just wanted to look at Nood's most recent suspect list. Its almost a given that theres a teammate in here somewhere.


There she is!! finally something with a bit of substance. :p:



C'mon Rich. You aint no dummy. Let's see something a little more definitive. You have skated thru many a game as mafia by flying under the radar and you always have me a bit nervous. Let's say you change up your play style and give us some meat to go with the mush?

Rgiht now I would have to say my top 4 suspects are:

Labby - While the huge train makes me a bit nervous she is still my top suspect. The recent finger pointing, pleas and grabbing onto others she notes as innocent remind me of a drowning person grabbing onto and dragging down as many others with her as she can. I am ok with her finding me suspect, but I just dont get the how she insists that Dawg and I have been distancing when the only post I can think of were the initial joke post. Reminds me of Luvbugz a bit....hhhmmmm- that did not always work out in the towns favor. (poor Bugz, where did she go anyway?)

Rich/DD - they are tied for second place. DD is always on my scum radar and altho she did finally post something with a bit of meat to it, I would like to see more that looks like she is helping. Rich, well, I outlined that above. He is not producing much either.

Jpap - while I said I would give you the benefit of the doubt on the Ag banter, I tend to agree that you seemed to be single minded there and that does not seem typical for you at all. What else you got dude?

Not sure of number 4 yet, but off the top of my head I would say Ice. Need to do a bit more research first................The Noob has me a bit worried. We either scared him off or he has been told to lay low by his team mates. This tactic seems to be used often and appears to work with noobs. not sure I wanna give him a pass just cuz he is new............

more in a bit.

So we know Rich is innocent. I know I am innocent. That leaves Lab, Ice, and DD. I have been suspicious of all three at some point. I want to say that Noods did in fact jump the gun on Lab knowing it was a pretty easy vote and then hesitated knowing she would be lynching an innocent, but its nothing I would consider 100%. Ice has already caught my eye on several occasions but its nothing all that damning. DD is certainly playing farther under the radar than usual but she was the kill vote on Noods, I think. Because of this, I really dont think there is anyway to link Noods "suspects" to a teammate just yet...
 
Did noods cry, hear comes a train, just after getting one vote from Lab_Rat? Or did she have two whole votes. Something just does not seem right.

I smell a rat. How was Lab cleared? By being the first vote on noods? I am trying to figure what Lab did not to be a suspect. I am not trying to be just focused on Lab_Rat, but something is bothering me here.

I know that noods is no good at being evil, but this meltdown doesn't add up. She was on a few suspects lists, but this seems just over the top.

Does the Don have powers that the goons don't have? Was this a way to protect the Don? I need to check the rules.

I also don't get the hit on Rich.

JL, if you are considering the fact that maybe Lab is the don and Noods was thrown under the bus to save her then you may also have to consider that Noods was one of the first people to even vote for Lab in the first place. Why would the team go after their own Don first and THEN divert attention to another player? Wouldn't it be smarter to just not put all the pressure on their leader in the first place?
 
ok, before I go for the night, I am going to go with my initial instinct and vote to lynch LabRat..............

Here's Noods' first vote on Lab. Its the third vote, just after the first night.

Well, to start with I retract my vote for Labby. While I am not taking her off of my list, I need to look deeper and at other players before I place a vote. My vote last night was a bit of a knee jerk reaction.

(and Lab, as far as my "posting style/count"-if you recall the other game we played together it was also noted that I was quieter then usual and I was innocent so not sure how that is indicative of anything)

As for Dawg and I distancing, I am not seeing that at all. I have no idea what Dawg's role is so I dont need to distance from him. if you are referring to his joke vote to get me talking, that is really grasping at straws!

DD is extremely quiet this time, Could be real life issues with her too but still no real input; I am also surprised that she was not Jpap's day one vote. I think that is extremely out of the ordinary! ;) Could be something to look into further.
The way Jpap seemed to set up Ag is discerning to say the least. I know there were others that obviously found Ag suspicious but JP could not seem to let up.....

I had hoped to get all the way thru the list but I will have to continue this later. I have to go pay bills on my lunch break. ugh!
(Payday - in one hand, out the other!):cry:

Noods retracts. By this time her name had popped up on quite a few lists. I think she was feeling antsy about having an innocent tied to her vote.

ok, I had hoped to have more time to devote today, but it is not working out except for checking in sporadically. I still think that Labby is not on the up and up. The latest pleas dig even deeper IMO.

Jpap, the banter and cornering with Ag last night was really suspect but I am proned to believe that he is a better player then that; so waiting on that one....

Ice, I agree that he had been playing "off" but at the moment am willing to write this off as being resigned to being killed off early. Not clearing him, mind you just giving a pass for the time being....a very short time being.

DD, sorry to hear about your surgery but I really hope to hear something of substance otherwise you seriously move waaaayyy up the list.

Rich? Is Rich here? Same with Mich.....absence does not make the heart grow fonder in this game...........

More in the morning. Hubby will be gone for a hours so my thoughts will be my own for while! High maintenance men are not worth the trouble!

For now, I will put my vote back where it was until I come with a better summation. I vote to lynch Labby

By this time her vote was safely buried on the end of the train.

Why is that concerning? My initial vote was a knee jerk vote after nightfall on my top suspect. I retracted as I wanted to do a little more research and thinking. I s'ppose I could have just left my vote there while I thought about but I didnt. Dont see how that indicates anything...:huh:

that's ok. I can hear the train a comin. It's coming round the bend.....

We all know that there was no thinking or researching to do, outside of their mafia forum that is, so there was another reason behind the switch. As I already said it was likely the jitters of when her vote was placed.

Also note the train reference which is further explained below...

JB, the train (Johnny Cash) reference was in regards to ME! Once Labby voted for me, I can see what is coming. Not a train yet, but I will be very surprised if it does not end up one.

I find it hard to believe that Noods knew for sure that a train was coming, which means I don't think this was setup by her scummy teammates. She would not have hinted at it at all since it would have given us a reason to even think that in the first place. I do think that she was aware of people who were looking into her and was trying to bluff her way out of getting more votes. Luckily we saw through the bluff.
 
Again, I have to appologize as I find myself short on time. Here's my thoughts, such as they are.

I think the mafia would have thought Labby a good target to get people looking at. This is assuming she isn't one of them. Due to her play last game, I don't think anyone would hesitate to believe her scum. As evidenced by the early train on her on day 2.

Like Jpap, I believe Noods got nervous about her vote. Maybe it was becuase she was third on, maybe because another teammate also had a vote placed. I agree with Jpap's assessment above that she wanted to bury her vote back near the caboose.

I do find it interesting that both JL and Pappy were on Labby pretty early on. I also think it's interesting that JL kept his vote on her from the word go. JL is the next player I intend to look into.

I still don't trust DD. RL issues or no, I would have expected some real thoughts, or at least a question or two by now.

I don't really have thoughts on Zsand, Dawg, or Razz yet.

I still don't know what to think about Mich... would like to hear MUCH more.

I'm cautiously leaning Labby innocent due to the strength of ALL the cases being made against her, as well as the fact that she was the first to vote Noods. Of course, I remember all to well what happened last time, so I'm not dropping my guard all together here...



My vote tonight will most likely go to JL or DD unless something glaring comes out.
 
TO ALL PLAYERS:

My ability to send and recieve PM's has been restored.

I apologize for any inconvience this created.
