My best guess is that Silanah was killed because he acted erratically enough to warrant Day 1 votes. The number reason someone does that is, they want to be lynched. So someone may have guessed that Silanah was Jester and blew their load on him.

My tenuous theory on Silanah is that he was killed for possibly signalling - I know when I see any sort of rhymes or poems or meter in Mafia, my first thought is usually "code."

Or maybe someone had a Day One use-it-or-lose-it Vig, and picked a random target.

Even if it was a Day 1 vig only, the game had only been on for 2.5 hours. Of a 36 hour day. Seems like a bad call to just randomly shoot immediately based on a posible code, and a few poor jokes.

I think this is the last time Sukul posted... all he's done is check in and comment twice on the presumed vig.

K I be check in now.

Alright Olar seems completely crazy, he is either jester trying to make really obvious attempt so people will disregard it and think him not a jester, or he could be using it to get people not to vote him. Either way it seems that hes anti town, considering he is acting as jester/evil faction. Really i have no idea bu all the post above mine seem to all be kind of strange, if I had to guess there all working together making tons of random pointless arguments all voting for each other and tons of bad jokes.

Here's Eloth's only post...

Sorry, at work and shit comes up I have to deal with. Managed to catch up now.

Have to say that the Vig is pretty disappointing play. Even if its some sort of forced Day 1 Vig, using it 2 hours into the day is silly stuff.

Lots of other stuff has happened so far as well, a pleasant surprise. Meanas got my attention as I was reading up. Who votes for someone on the suspicion they are a Jester? And then when asked about it decides not to say anything. Normally I'd call that pretty weird, but in this game I'm rather wary of voting someone off. If there are 3 Eldar its only 2 unlucky lynches for us and they win. And Meanas strikes me as a likely Eldar candidate. As the person who he was voting for (was is Olar?). That would presume they know each other of course so its a bit tentative there.

Other thing I like is what Rashan just brought up. I completely missed it on first read of the post from Osseric but I find it strange that someone wants to out people as Town.
Yes there was a Vig and it wasn't a great Vig but it came from the Town so why would you want to try and hunt down who did it? Outing people as Town is just going to put a huge target on their backs during the Night and is completely counter productive.

Be interested to hear from Osseric and Liosan there. Luckily we got oodles of time with the 36 hour days.

And then we have GL's 2 posts. The first is a checkin, the second is above. Honestly, for a low poster, this doesn't look that bad to me upon a closer inspection.

All 3 of the enlarged pieces of text, to me, are smart things to say. GL is absolutely correct that it's a waste to try and point fingers at someone and call them town.

Osseric, on 04 October 2010 - 04:40 PM, said:

Hey folks. Just checking in.

Looked like a vig kill to me. Also looked like it could have been Rashan or Liosan that was the culprit. They both pop on with their first post, and then someone ends up dead. That seems fishy.

Well that looks like some great detective work right there Osseric. People who make there first post on the first day are obviously the ones who day killed someone. You should work for Scotland yard or MI5.

I think that you are as likely suspect as either me or Rashan. Your first post is accusatory and looks to be setting up possible future lynches. See I can be a detective too.

wow... defensive much? You just shot to the top of my list. Also, I wasn't setting up future lynches, as if thats even possible at this stage, I made an observation and put it on thread. You come on and get very defensive that seems fishy to me.

Vote Liosan

for being a prose face to everyone.

no?

Ahhh. You are obviously a scum killer.

Vote Osseric

For being a scum.

You quote Olar and then vote me. You need to lay off that purple drank my friend. It's going to your head.

Osseric's got a total of 3 posts, too. One I agree with (Liosan seeming a bit fishy), One is a standard defense. One is an absolute catastrophe trying to out Rashan or Liosan as town.

there use to be a way, but its gone.

Now all you can do is click on the persons name and go to their profile, and in their profile click on the POSTS tab. It will give you a few of their posts, but not all.


If you want to see how many posts each person has (for post count)

go to the MAFIA Forum

and beside the mafia 66 thread, there is a post count, click on the number, and it will pop-up a post count. You cannot search for all individual posts anymore apparently. It used to be located in the profile of each player, but that has been replaced with the find content tab, and that just takes you to each thread that that person has posted in.

[Barghast]

I went through Liosan's posts, too. He's got a good number and upon second read, I'm not convinced he's town, but I'm less convinced that he's a good lynch today. He plays with an aggressive style which I know, from past experience, has tended to rub me the wrong way, so I may just have the blinders on a bit.

He's been pretty pivotal in some of the recent arguments and after all of those pieces I've read and posted, my favorite to lynch today is Osseric. Eloth gets a nod just for offering absolutely nothing, and he even came in during a big spat.

Vote Osseric

One question I do have, maybe Lio can clarify the earlier point when he voted Osseric after calling Olar scum

I know about the brief post summary option but I can't even see that... I just realized it may either be the theme that's on this alt or even my browser (Chrome), but I found the "Posts" tab on the member's profile (hidden as white text on white background) and then when I click it, I get this javascript error box about an action failing. Clicking the "Find Posts" button on the left side of the member's page just takes me to the aforementioned search form.

I just manually parsed the thread, but that will get hard to do before long.

You guys are gorram trigger happy, I'll give you that. And assuming a lot, in particular about everyone knowing your 'habits' as a group.

@Alkend - why not? It's still a vote. 36/12 is just dragging it for me. I understand timezone differences make this something of a neccesity, but that doesn't mean I have to repress my preferences. If I'm alone with this, all fine, you'll just override my vote and be done with it. It's not like you need 100% of votes to keep the day at it's full duration.
It's all in the game.

And please.
@Karatallid: It's possible for each one of you to be Eldar. That sentence brought nothing to the table.

This post has an epic alt clue in it. But I can't decide whether that's an accident, seeing as Meanas is actually playing quite well if the clue is accurate..

I missed quite a lot it seems. I am not too sure what to make of meanas and korv and the vote following twice in one day is highly suspicious. Coupled by the jester comment linked above it does seem to point toward eldar. The fact is though that if there are three eldar and the 50%+1 makes me think thats likely, then lynching one of them today will allow any vigs or killers in the remaining players take out the other one. We do run a risk of course of lynching the third eldar later on by mistake so as in any faction game its maintaining the balance of risk versus possibility. In that its unlikely that they are town acting so concerted when town cannot speak off thread.

Personally, with the amount of killer roles likely to be in play its worth our while just ignoring them both and leaving them to someone who can take them out sensibly at night. If there are three eldar and both meanas and korv are eldar as suspected then if night killed thats one of their winning conditions gone on night 1 and it will effectively remove that team from the game.

Personally I don't see what GL has done to deserve being lynched. He isnt the lowest poster, nor has his few posts been without merit.

[Barghast]

@Kalse, I know how to search but it wasn't working... I did find out that the recent posts area was broken for "Gray" theme. It works fine in the new one I picked. Still don't know how to just bring up the running log (that has only like 1 or 2 lines from the start of each post) with the link to open directly to the post you want.

Until one of them survives and so pulls a Jump Around and wins with the 'dead' faction, lol. Ah, good memories...

Anyway, to all of you who are unsure about voting today: we have to consider that, in the future, we may not get info on scum type. I, for one, want to know if we're going to get that info from the start with the possibility of losing it later, or if we'll only get it after a while. But if we have it now, we don't want to lose it or we won't be able to tell which faction it is we're lynching!

I'm going to vote before I leave for the day, and that's only a few minutes away. If that means that I'm voting for no reason other than to get a lynch, then so be it, but I want that info, and I don't want to waste a good lynch-day again if I can help avoid it.


@Barghast - see the little square box next to my name at the top of this post? Click it. Drop-down menu, at the bottom there will be a thing that either says "find posts" or "find my content" when you hover over its icon. Click one. If it's the former, you should get the abbreviated list. If you're using Midnight Glow, then I can say that it will be "find my content" and when you click that, there will be a list of forums. Go to the top-right of the result box. Drop-down menu. Change it to "View all posts by..." and click update. See all my posts in their full glory.

It's pretty much a matter of opinion then, because I do not see a case fit for a day 1 vote in a faction game. So I most likely wont vote. If it was town versus scum then korv and meanas would be equally suitable for a vote, but its not and lynching badly could have serious consequences. Also leaving possible xenos out in the open should draw night actions away from the town and hopefully provide us the info in the morning.
