five people reading. no one posting

[Rashan]

Nothing to post about, just waiting on more people that haven't weighed in. For one, its too early to make any concrete assumptions, but everything thus far has merit and worth keeping an eye on.

it will always be gut on the first day, and in all honesty I am of two minds about Omtose. For one I don't like the post and the nervousness it radiates, but at the same time I do recognice that small things become huge in the absence of larger blocks of information – which is essentially why day 1 lynches are as odd as they are – ergo I may be less objective in this regard than I would've liked. Omtose is a strong player, if a bit too willing to parrot my every say in an attempt to seem wise, and so I am not quite convinced we should move to lynch him today..

But at the same time, he seems to guilty!

He does seem very guilty! The thing about it is he's not really doing anything to deny the guilt. It seems odd to me, at first he was nervous about it and now he's throwing it all out there in a way. Very erratic behaviour! An attempt at some reverse psychology perhaps?

the best way to avoid this kind of thing is to ignore it.. unless someone latches on. Unfortunately for the killers, it's often difficult to do that.

Middle-of-the-roading, boys. I don't like it, but its not actually a scum tactic, not all the time anyway.
Kessobahn, seems to be like thats a bit of symping. "Omtose is a strong player... and so I am not quite convinced we should move to lynch him today." That's not only middle of the roading, its keeping the attention on him in a subtle way, making us watch him, and making Kess seem like he's posting solid content. Of course at the same time we should just "ignore it". While I can see Omtose being guilty, the only time any "suspicious post" gets scum lynched Day One is when its a drunken post

Tsk, tsk, tsk. Being in two minds about anything is very bad in mafia... see, when you vote, and in the unlikely event that I'm indeed lynched (we're only five hours into the day after all), people will come back to this post and say: 'ah, so you thought he might be inno, but you still voted for Omtose! If you think he was inno (notice the leap in logic from might be to was), why did you vote?' And there will be little you can say.

Well I am glad that you're not willing to put pressure based on specific posts. I'm posting what I think. I try to keep my thought prosess as transparent as possible so that people understand how I view the game. If you feel that what I say in my posts is middle of the road..erm.. ing then I think we just clash in our way of approaching the game

[Emurlahn]

Hey guys, I'm checking in and will begin catching up now.

It is a nice thing that they aren't 10 pages of spam this time before I start in

[Anomandaris]

Well, I see a few people have had enough spam for the day and got down to serious business...nothing much there as far as I'm concerned, so I'll cast my vote on the next person who doesn't use the word 'spam' in one of their posts. Let the games begin!

If I thought you were inno, Omtose, I would not have voted for you. I merely point out that I am not sure I want you lynched because you will participate and I might –unlikely though it may be– be wrong.

A frosty reception there. Maybe I should wave Dragnipur in your face a little more...

I'm pressuring based on two posts (roflmao), and your playstyle this game in general... It's especially evident here, you're being helpful while trying hard to appear innocent, which doesn't strike me as usual for you at all.
But then I could be wrong!

Wow, seems we have a new tactic in the game. First, you praise the fact that we moved out of spam. Then, you anncounce you'll vote for a guy who posts content! You sir (or madam) most certainly have a fresh, entertaining and novel approach.
Here, have my vote to show my appreciation.

Also, I think 'praise' is too strong a word. 'Noted', perhaps .

Considering the implications of Dragnipur as a metaphor, and the ratio of men to women playing Mafia, I wouldn't advise it, Omtose.

You may have a point there.
