saw this before heading off:

of course I was coasting, ffs, my hard drive died, I spent two days trying to deal with that, mafia was far from a priority. yesterday I would not have minded if you'd have actually lynched me--i'd have been annoyed at the inno's waste of time, but not hugely upset.
on top of which DoD prologue got posted. and i had classes--today's my busiest day class-wise.

tomorrow I have a whole day to spend on mafia, i'll look into people then.
now I really am going to bed, because if i want to be up before deadline, i'll have to get up in 5 hours.

It just feels un-natural to go to bed before midnight.

Huh, all that back-and-forth between DKt and JA, and it doesn't really seem to have produced anything solid.

And DKt had that whole "I'm being framed!" business about Dibs, even though no one else brought the possibility up ... he's defending against a non-attack, seemingly just in case someone else thinks to make a case that he Killed dibs. Which no one did.


Vote Dktorode



I thought i made myself clear but obviously my Engrish is not good enough.
I never complained about being setup...JA assumed i was complaining, I was actualy complaining about Dibs and what i felt to be a crappy strategy on his behalf. Just because i was taking the brunt of the dibs attack is why it would it appear so....
Please...JA and myself have already been through this. Really nt in the mood for repeating myself over and over :)

Ok, sorry for being away for ages. I got stuck at work last night and we were going out so didn't come home first. I am also off to work again soon :) But I will definitely be on tonight :D

Right, yesterday I thought Dk looked like scum with Kurt as possible symp. I'm thinking now that the Dibs vs Dk thing was basically your classic idiot innos squaring up against each other situation, and dk would be a bit suicidal to be starting so many fights if he was scum, so my suspicions of him are now on the backburner (but still cookin' :))

The other one, Kurt. Well, he's been playing under the radar the past few days. In fact, I can't think of anyone more under the radar (if there are, they're so under the radar I've forgotten they're playing). Kurt is being non-commital, he's unsure, he's being jokey, but he's not contributing, so I decided to do a re-read on him.

edit - damn, too many quotes

If it looks like I've been on for a long time, I left the browser up while showering and fixing coffee.

OK, only one thing stands out at me so far:

 dktorode, on Mar 24 2009, 02:23 AM, said:

Obdi could be the symp trying to attract as much attention as possible, but then that makes no sense since the symp himself is a killer in waiting. So it would be more important for the symp to play more of a killer style game and lay low...then again it is Obdi and with him anything is possible.


 dktorode, on Mar 24 2009, 08:20 AM, said:

What i think is that Symp clues are going to be coming very thick in this game.
Symps NEED to let there masters know who they are. Since if a killer kills his symp he is then effectively killing his other killer.



In both of these, he implies that it's a sure thing that the Symp takes over for the Killer if the leader dies.

We don't know if that's the mechanic at work - it's quite possible, and it's been done frequently in the past in games with small scum teams, but we don't know; hell, with the Symp and Killer knowing each other, that makes it less likely to be the case, for balancing reasons. Dkt, on the other hand, seems to be pretty damned sure that the Kill is inherited. That implies knowledge of the scum faction.


Vote DKtorode



Ok, so the game has started for real, and Kurt seems to be stepping up his game. A case, a vote.

Goddamnit ...

Remove Vote


Fucking hell, I'm going to get something to eat.


Ah. Vote removed.

So, this is kind of the place where he started to "defend" dk's slip with the mechanics, which me and a few others took as Dk=scum, Kurt=symp. But I think when you tie in with the rest of his play, he's just trying to contribute without stirring any shit. Maybe trying to avoid pissing off the aggressive players.

kurt says he just did a read-through.
yet he doesn't notice that dkt didn't read it, althouhg it's the main topic of discussion today.



I thought the main topic was that dkt apparently didn't know that the Symp and Killer knew one another - I didn't see anyone else mention what I brought up, about the inherited Kill. I'm pretty sure that hasn't been a topic at all.

@Yellow: Must have gotten something mixed up, so that's my mistake.

Tbh out of all the cases out so far, the one on dkt seems the most viable imo. Repeated ignorance about various mechanics tells me it's not someone who isn't paying attention



Uh, in his defense, I was completely wrong about my case on him.


Which basically sums up my thoughts on Kurt's game to this point - i.e. pointless.

What case was this? Are you talking about a case on Dkt, or am I missing something?

I seem to remember that you backed up Dkt's "misinterpreting" of the mechanic, which is why people are picking up a symp vibe. Your post above (if I'm reading it properly, apologies if I'm not) seems to just back this up, because you're defending him.




I found it suspicious that he knew that the Symp would take over for a dead Killer. I didn't read P-S's opening posts closely enough, and missed the line that pointed out this mechanic for everyone to know.


EDIT: I should say that I can't criticize him for not knowing that the Symp-Killer pair knew each other - I missed that line, too. I scanned that second P-S opening post waaaay too quickly.


Fair enough, he's completely backed away now from any finger pointing at Dk, which he says is because he got it wrong. Now, the original case on Dk was Kurt's only contribution to the game, so by this point he admits to contributing nothing.

Well, I'm headed to bed.

I usually wait for someone to do something stupid, but that seems to have been me most recently, and I'm not about to build a case against myself (which would be pretty entertaining, I have to admit - I've got to figure out how to run a game where people wind up building cases against themselves), so ... yeah, I'm off. Because it's late, and no one's acting particularly scummy, except maybe Morgoth, and I'm not sure how I got that impression. Just a gut feeling.


Crosspost Edit: And yeah, the fact that there were a couple of opening posts and a much later "starting" post, and the fact that both were retroactively edited by Bent, has really screwed with things.


Still, no contribution.

I agree on Dkt, but I'm not sure on JA. I need to do a quick re-read on Dkt to put my hunch into words.


He says he's going to do a re-read and build a case (I think?)


 Kurt Montandon, on Mar 25 2009, 07:28 PM, said:

Huh, all that back-and-forth between DKt and JA, and it doesn't really seem to have produced anything solid.

Both seem willing to cast a lot of suspicion on people, but neither seems interesting in building a sound case and voting on it. And DKt had that whole "I'm being framed!" business about Dibs, even though no one else brought the possibility up ... he's defending against a non-attack, seemingly just in case someone else thinks to make a case that he Killed dibs. Which no one did.


Vote Dktorode



Edit: That didn't come out very coherent, did it? It just seems like JA and Dkt are trying to herd everyone's suspicions in a certain direction without doing anything clear-cut that can be held against them later.


So this is strange, he is now contributing, and he's back onto voting for Dk. He has shown no real desire to look at anyone else. Is this scum trying to get rid of an agressive player (i.e. the first vote and case), then retracting to stay on his good side (i.e. removing vote and "defending" Dk), then wanting rid again so picking up on renewed interest and re-casing, re-voting?

Shit, I have to admit this is getting a bit shoddy.

Well caught up on events. Done a little reread and I really don't have a lot in the way of suspects, there's a few people who are vaugely suspicious but only really vague and not a lot of solid info out there.

I'd like to see more from Kurt M. Both him and Bubba didn't place a Day 2 vote, and its quite often a sign of scum when they don't want to commit. Kurt is giving us a bit of a content free game as well especially the last day or so.

So Kurt, who do you suspect?




I didn't put in a Day 2 vote because it went by so quickly - I went to bed about five hours before the lynch occured, and got out of bed about three hours after Night. I'm still not entirely sure what the case on Sixty was, it seemed ... tenuous. I was far more convinced as I read through the posts that Dibs was scum, but then he wound up dead over Night, so, well, so much for that.

And right now ... as my vote states - I think JA and DKtorode are stirring up a lot of crap without taking a firm stance on anything. It feels like herding, as well as looks like distancing from one another, especially as they've seemingly gotten into a long-winded argument, but neither voted for one another. Or anyone else, more tellingly.



 Kurt Montandon, on Mar 26 2009, 03:01 AM, said:

I'd also add that this is the first time I've played an alt-less game - it's throwing me off, because I keep watching for how people are supposed to play, rather than how they're actually playing.

Well, I'm off to bed, Day will time out long before I'm back.

I'm going to stick with the best suspicion I've got. Good luck to the rest of you, sorting this out ...

Ok, got to the end. I have to hold my hands up here, I was thoroughly expecting to get through these posts and find no content, but even with that possibility I stated a few posts up, it doesn't look too scummy to me.

Which kind of means I've wasted my time a little bit here, and I have to go work in about two minutes :)

My other suspect for the day was Bubba, because he's been a non-entity in this game, but I have no time to go through his posts and build a case.

I will have to go now, and I can't really place a vote as I have nothing. Sorry, will have to pick up my game when I get home tonight.

Hmmm, tough game.

The fact the scum are alone, and with no incentive to interact/send signals/protect each others means there's very little to look for besides "general scummy-like kinda not inno" behavior.

Anyways, we have 2 more days at least for sure, maybe something concrete will happen, but until then we're stuck on those kinds of meta "cases".

Speaking of which, I noticed something. There's two players I systematically find massively scummy when they are inno, and those are Mentalist and Vengeance. Mentalist has given me his quota of bad vibes, but I'm getting nothing from Vengeance.

He's been playing clean, and when he's inno he normally finds a way to come up with a bizarre strategy, like fake-revealing or fake-RPing or something. This game, he's playing "normally", so I'll try and

All right. Tapper and Gentlemen, this is the sum total of Bubba's meaningfull contribution to this game. His first post in any way serious is on page 9 (my thread has 22 pages), and even that hardly does much but take up space.

 Bubba, on Mar 24 2009, 01:16 AM, said:

Wow huge spam fest.....anyway I don't think it matters who we are.... so out with it.

I'm the cook


So he's the cook. The rest of the players have started playing the game, yet this is all Bubba feels should be added to help.

 Bubba, on Mar 24 2009, 11:42 AM, said:

Remove vote/vote Obdi

I wont be around when day times out and I would like to see where this goes.

His playing has been a bit "off"


Then, slightly more than a page later he jumps in voting for Obdi, for playing a bit off. That's it. He participates in the voting but he could just as well have been a bot for all the good it does us.


 Bubba, on Mar 25 2009, 12:26 AM, said:

You just became PI in my book morgy....I was waiting for someone to post that. Yesterday I picked up on that and have been holding back today to see where it all went.

@post 447


Then on page.. urm.. 13 or 14 I think, he declares me a PI because I pointed out the killer/symp mechanics in this game and how they differ from an ordinary setup. Anyone can read the rules, except perhaps for dk, so why should this make me a PI? It reeks of Bubba trying to get on my good side. I, as people know, have some problems dealing with people who seem to agree with me. Not to mention that it's good to have people friendly inclined towards you later in the game.

 Bubba, on Mar 25 2009, 12:06 PM, said:

Hmmm....My money is on DKT as the killer, with Dibs as the back up symp at this point. This is Gut on both players, but it is jumping out strong to me, so I want to get it out on thread. And I'm more basing this on Dibs play at this point, than DKT.

I'm not going put a vote on Sixty because I don't see the scummy aspect yet, (But I don't know him yet ether)


Then, on day 2, Bubba's first post of merit. Here at least we get an opinion. It's a three line opinion, but it's a start. It's coming way late though. More or less at the time people were starting to ask what's going on with his lack of participation.

 Bubba, on Mar 25 2009, 12:10 PM, said:

The case on DKT is rubbish. But rubbish cases end up getting people killed later in game. If I was a back up killer I would be pushing a rubbish case early on my master knowing later after he is lynched I have the best distancing defense there is.


This post is his followup, and then he leaves again. See he has opinions. See, he can participate. He does so however as little as humanly possible. He's very much a low poster who's going under the radar and it seems probable that he's doing so purposefully.

 Bubba, on Mar 25 2009, 03:25 PM, said:

It has gotten to the point that I have seen almost all of you play good/scum from every different angle....and now everything you guys do looks scummy......I need to step back and do a reread....uuuuughghhh


Isn't that nice. The re-read by the by produces nothing. This is also another few pages after the last bout of participation.

 Bubba, on Mar 26 2009, 03:40 AM, said:

I admit to being lost in this game. I think it is the no ALT thing. I just cant get a proper read on people.

I was really hoping people where going to play it in character. This game had a lot of potential. Now I'm just not getting anywhere.

Remove voteMorgy must have gone to bed.

Taking the winter off has rusted up my skills pretty bad also.


His next vote is on me, he proclaims it a joke and pulls it right away. He complains a little about his skills and dissapear again.

This is it. This is Bubba in this game. Will anyone try to tell me that this is typical behaviour for him as an inno? For anyone as an inno apart from Lokiman? No, bubba is more than a little off, he doesn't exist. He's trying very very hard to slip under the radar, not coming into conflict with anyone at all, not doing anything to help the inno team apart from taking up room.

I think that Bubba is the symp. As I pointed out earlier, the primary function of the symp this game is not to protect the killer, it's to step in once the killer is dead. By staying in the background, Bubba leaves the playing field to the killer without risking suspicion towards himself, or through his actions towards his master.

I know it's not much to go on but that seems to be Bubba's very intention. I've already voted for him, but just to show it more clearly

Interesting.

The bit about the symp is a bit strange, though, this could be a good case and proper description of how the killer would play in this game. Just because he has a backup doesn't mean he'll just go wild, if he can stay alive they win one day earlier than if the backup kicks in.

Why did you feel the need to cover yourself like this?

liked it till you said he is more likely a symp...Cant be sure if you are covering all your basis or if it is genuine.
I have said things like this as an inno before so i can sympethise...

This all does tie in with my theory that bubba, morgy, JA or Ment changed there kill order just before the lynch to dibs because of what dibs was saying. (they were the people around after he came on...weak i know)
But then that would make bubba the killer...not the symp which is what you seem to be saying.

I dont see why the killer will want to take center stage and the symp hang back...i think they would play it like normal killers expecting that one of the killers just comes back inno if the other is still around...only thing is they cant discuss kills. But i dont see it much different to being a standard killer pair really.
...┌∩┐(◣_◢)┌∩┐...

Why dont they make the whole plane out of that black box stuff?

That's true, I guess I got a bit hung up in the thought that the symp is the fall back plan sort of. However, how does this change things? You agreed with my case though not with the conclusion, it's still a good reason to vote is it not? If I believe he's more likely a symp and you believe he's more likely a killer then we both have good reason to vote for him, yet I am the only one who does so.

All right. Tapper and Gentlemen, this is the sum total of Bubba's meaningfull contribution to this game. His first post in any way serious is on page 9 (my thread has 22 pages), and even that hardly does much but take up space.

 Bubba, on Mar 24 2009, 01:16 AM, said:

Wow huge spam fest.....anyway I don't think it matters who we are.... so out with it.

I'm the cook


So he's the cook. The rest of the players have started playing the game, yet this is all Bubba feels should be added to help.

Remove vote/vote Obdi

I wont be around when day times out and I would like to see where this goes.

His playing has been a bit "off"


Then, slightly more than a page later he jumps in voting for Obdi, for playing a bit off. That's it. He participates in the voting but he could just as well have been a bot for all the good it does us.


 Bubba, on Mar 25 2009, 12:26 AM, said:

You just became PI in my book morgy....I was waiting for someone to post that. Yesterday I picked up on that and have been holding back today to see where it all went.

@post 447


Then on page.. urm.. 13 or 14 I think, he declares me a PI because I pointed out the killer/symp mechanics in this game and how they differ from an ordinary setup. Anyone can read the rules, except perhaps for dk, so why should this make me a PI? It reeks of Bubba trying to get on my good side. I, as people know, have some problems dealing with people who seem to agree with me. Not to mention that it's good to have people friendly inclined towards you later in the game.

 Bubba, on Mar 25 2009, 12:06 PM, said:

Hmmm....My money is on DKT as the killer, with Dibs as the back up symp at this point. This is Gut on both players, but it is jumping out strong to me, so I want to get it out on thread. And I'm more basing this on Dibs play at this point, than DKT.

I'm not going put a vote on Sixty because I don't see the scummy aspect yet, (But I don't know him yet ether)


Then, on day 2, Bubba's first post of merit. Here at least we get an opinion. It's a three line opinion, but it's a start. It's coming way late though. More or less at the time people were starting to ask what's going on with his lack of participation.

 Bubba, on Mar 25 2009, 12:10 PM, said:

The case on DKT is rubbish. But rubbish cases end up getting people killed later in game. If I was a back up killer I would be pushing a rubbish case early on my master knowing later after he is lynched I have the best distancing defense there is.


This post is his followup, and then he leaves again. See he has opinions. See, he can participate. He does so however as little as humanly possible. He's very much a low poster who's going under the radar and it seems probable that he's doing so purposefully.

 Bubba, on Mar 25 2009, 03:25 PM, said:

It has gotten to the point that I have seen almost all of you play good/scum from every different angle....and now everything you guys do looks scummy......I need to step back and do a reread....uuuuughghhh


Isn't that nice. The re-read by the by produces nothing. This is also another few pages after the last bout of participation.

 Bubba, on Mar 26 2009, 03:40 AM, said:

I admit to being lost in this game. I think it is the no ALT thing. I just cant get a proper read on people.

I was really hoping people where going to play it in character. This game had a lot of potential. Now I'm just not getting anywhere.

Remove voteMorgy must have gone to bed.

Taking the winter off has rusted up my skills pretty bad also.


His next vote is on me, he proclaims it a joke and pulls it right away. He complains a little about his skills and dissapear again.

This is it. This is Bubba in this game. Will anyone try to tell me that this is typical behaviour for him as an inno? For anyone as an inno apart from Lokiman? No, bubba is more than a little off, he doesn't exist. He's trying very very hard to slip under the radar, not coming into conflict with anyone at all, not doing anything to help the inno team apart from taking up room.

I think that Bubba is the symp. As I pointed out earlier, the primary function of the symp this game is not to protect the killer, it's to step in once the killer is dead. By staying in the background, Bubba leaves the playing field to the killer without risking suspicion towards himself, or through his actions towards his master.

I know it's not much to go on but that seems to be Bubba's very intention. I've already voted for him, but just to show it more clearly

Vote Bubba


(Now to really piss him off)

Meh
