Can't translate from my phone. I was mega annoyed. Then I saw the rant. Which made me laugh. So no more annoyance, as it stopped anyway.
Not a whole lot going on so far. I don't really buy Osseric's signaling case, but I need to take a closer look at the reaction. I'll try to get to a computer at some point but today is hectic. may not happen for a few hours.

Galayn Lord was awful quick to vote and then to remove vote on Atrahal. Afraid to leave your vote there for some reason Galayn Lord?
Ehm, no. Read back up, he showed offense at the asylum game being called Venge's. I voted him to show him I alted him.
Just sport.
You're seeing issues where there are none.
I don't have any issues with you voting for him. I do have issues of you removing your vote within the same minute and now you are getting all defensive that I've called you out on it.
So you are saying he is signaling?
I'm definately thinking along those lines. I can't think of a reason where you would vote for someone and then turn around right away and take your vote off. That is just way too suspicious in my mind. What was the point of voting in the first place?
its a joke? come on, this stuff happens all the time. doesnt mean that it has significance.

Wait, so I explain why I vote (and for fucks sake, I explained what the reason was,
He outs himself, I say "okay, peekabo, gotcha alted!" and vote for a bit of emphasis. The vote then has served its purpose, so leaving it on would be idiotic. So I withdraw. Might it be signalling? Perhaps, but.... such blatant signalling never works. all it does, is, draw attention, like you just proved. So why would I signal that way, instead of using an innocuous little code like below:
vote Osseric
remove Vote
I just love voting for people, you know....
So to recap (I won't do this in kanji), 3 good reasons against what I just did being signalling:
rule 1 of signalling: you don't signal with votes, it is too blatant.
rule 2 of signalling: you don't signal in a faction game. You don't want to give a connection away because the majority of the players is not on your side.
rule 3 of signalling: if you do signal, make sure it is innocuous and won't be copied in quotes or by Path-Shaper for posterity.
and as an added bonus, a tip for you, my young padawan:
rule 1 of spotting signalling: beware who you call out, they may just be on your team (or in this game, on an allied team). This isn't town versus scum where town can afford to blunder.
Am I being condescending now? Sure. But you're trying to call an egg an apple.

Isn't a merc game just another way of saying a faction game? That is how I read it. Shin also mentioned that all the "clans" are equal in number.That means there are either 4 or 5 clans in my book. 2 would be too small and 3 would create uneven numbers. You would have to jump up to 10 clans after that and that is just too crazy.

so, for the benefit of the time-less amongs us: is TS RPing? or is he silenced?

OK, still not done, but a quick request:When you guys are humoring Tulas Shorn by "believing" that he's forced to post like this, could you at least include a copy/paste of your Google translation in the reply, so we don't also waste our time for his considerable amusement?
I was role playing. I even said that I was role playing like 3 times. I answered questions gave my thoughts. Because you are to stupid and lazy to use Google translator, I suggest that you perhaps call up your mother and apologize for being the retard sperm that managed to impregnate her egg, when your father was drunkenly mauling her in the back of a Van filled with pot smoke.
I would think this being the internet that people would be able to find Google translator with out having to have their hands held. Has mafia really became such a exercise of stupidity that a. nobody but a select few can actually role play or even know what role playing is (I mean fuck this is only day 1 therefore you shouldn't even fucking complain about role playing unless it goes on to day 2. and b. that even though you can access the internet you can't actually use it for more then looking for midget porn.
Have a nice.
Just so you unable to use google morons don't miss this.
As others said, it is quite annoying when playing from a phone.
As I commented: running to google translate isn't exactly Roleplay.
Anyhow, cute rant.
But a few snide remarks:
1) Roleplay is a side-effect of the game, but it isn't game day 1 for nothing - the game is running. It's okay that you're not superduper serious but it is still a game day.
2) Roleplay depends on interaction, that means other people going along with it. Initiating it, cool. If it doesn't get people along, pity. Either way, no big issue. It is voluntary.
3) If people are annoyed with you playing the game under cover of google translate, they may have a point. RP is to amuse yourself and them (Personally, I'd have preferred if you added a haiku to each post instead, or posted in haiku or tanka/waka, would have gained you massive rep from me after the game, anyway)
4) In the old days, dragon sex took place during night resolution, not during the day. It being the unenlightened romantic nineties, they may even have turned of the light.
5) Few of our parents are old enough to have been born in the hippie-era....next time, keep the average age of your audience in mind when you try to insult them
6) In a game where no-one knows the roles, it is natural that people are suspicious. You can say you are RPing, but do they have to believe you? Nope, this is mafia, there's a lot of nerves and people trying to be clever, and no-one trusts no-one.
7) There is too much punctuation and too much correct grammar in your rant to become a classic.
I really wanted to get to 10 points, just to make it like the ten commandments, but here's a really nice haiku for you, by Matsu Basho.
Quote
in my new clothing
i feel so different, i must
look like someone else
i feel so different, i must

edited to fix the haiku.

It didn't strike me as signalling at all, just as a jab that they'd alted the player. As far as signalling goes that would be extremely clumsy.

This thread reached aneurism levels of rage really quick. Poor Tulas Shorn being critized for making a lot of hassle in the name of RP. I can see how that would seem unexpected.
Can't say there's much to go on though I do enjoy the Osseric vs GL thing.
edit; and I'm not going to carry around the face of Paolini any longer.

Oh look im on my phone, and kanji shows up as a bunc of squares. Another reason why rp-ing should be done in generally intelligible way.
Gonna try to catch up, i think i missed a rant.

im also amused by the Osseric/GL thing, although i dont think there is much to it. i do love how Osseric accuses GL of being defensive when all GL was doing was explaining the reason behind removing the vote.
maybe we should be looking at Osseric for being too eager to see issues and defensiveness...

I'm going to take the GL vote at face value
@TS - I realize you are trying to bring some extra value to the game, but please do it constructively. Your rant was entertaining, but since you included me in the list of who you were insulting, I could do without it.
Anyway....

I was looking to see who else we can pick on and I see that Eloth, Silanah, Sorrit and Tiamatha are no shows. It's probably a bit early in the day to start a low poster hunt but I'm keeping their names handy just in case.
