So now I'm hoity toity eh? I can start using fuck every third word if it would help people read my posts. I would be more inclined to adopt the tsk tsk though :heart:

As for the Tellan vs Fener comment, I think it makes perfect sense to make such a comparison. I am a low poster, but my posts are longer and more content driven then say Tellan. I used fener because his one post attempted to be insightful and not jokey unlike Tellan who although he had more posts than Fener, I get far less from Tellan's posts (aside from amusement, that last post was really funny). Although, now that Fener still has not responded, he no longer can remain smug in his one post.

So wait, I'm the only person who has joke voted? You all suck at mafia.


I suppose Sorrit buzzkilled it by being serious. I kind of like how it got Karosis a little panicky and mixing up our names, so I think I'll leave my vote where it is for the moment.



@Emur: I think this is why Spite kept his vote on Karo. Decent reason as day one votes go but Spite is also coasting a bit as well if you look at the remainder of his posts.

Lord, this has been an historically boring day. LoL.

what? you want us to entertain you ?
Whats the purpose of that LoL at the end of you sentence ?


I exist only to be entertained, so yes. The purpose of the LoL is to throw you off my trail, obviously. You know, when someone puts LoL at the end of a sentence it automatically makes everything they said before it not mean anything. When I said it was an historically boring day, I was hoping that people would see that I meant the History channel is boring, so we should obviously vote Liosan. Get it?



Huh?

Just because you're posting doesn't mean you're posting anything worthwhile.

At least the thread isn't half-dead. I have gotten all of you to speak.



I see that others have locked onto this comment. I agree. I just reread Liosan, and am getting that post-padding, asking questions to look helpful vibe at the moment.

Vote Liosan


I know it is still early, but I would also hear from Emur a little more. Very first post of the thread, then gone, vamoose, even with someone posting second mere seconds later. And then a jokey statement for this page, and Emur is gone yet again. Laying low?

What ? who else ?
what fucking questions did I ask to be helpful ? Were you trying not to be helpful? quote something . Meanas beat me to that activity
And why the fuck do I need to post pad ? Because low posters are a favorite mafia target. Is there a low-poster case ? Does there need to be one to post pad? you are moron , who is trying to defend Karosis. Defend Karo from that case? doubt it. thats what you are.






Lio, a rage response does not necessarily inspire me to remove my vote. I think conventional wisdom, as demonstrated by the votes hovering around Karo, states people's reaction to votes can be very telling of scumminess.

In general, the thought is people with nothing to lose can shake off a vote here and there and instead step up to the accusations by improving their game. Ignoring votes entirely can work but sometimes backfire when people think you are trying to avoid attention. Raging against votes can show a desire to stay in the game, but also calls attention to oneself, often to one's detriment.

You raged. I checked back on your posts and since responding to pressure from myself and Meanas, you really haven't contributed much (not that you were contributing much imho earlier). In fact your last post is downright sulky, though I am sorry about your knee and wish you a swift road to recovery.

If you had paid any attention , you would have seen that I have responded to almost anyone like this with rage? not that I've seen, this is more of a recent development and I will fucking continue to do so.
Also , by my last post I wanted to explain the reason for all the swearing . not to sulk.
This is day1 , what content is there to be posted ? nothing if people don't put effort into posting should I start posting about that stupid signalling case ? if that helps you get off or should I take Meanas's reaction and give the thread another stupid signalling case ? might be better than asking all these rhetorical questions
You fuckers seem to have forgotten good old days of spamming day1. How long ago was that? I can't seem to remember
Why is being a lowposter bad? because Its a very good way to coast . but I have been getting in arguments and genrally insulting every retard here (which means almost all of you excepting who? just curious) so I'm not coasting. Low posting can equal coasting but not all coasting is defined as low posting. what need do I have for post padding you stupid jackass? try cutting back to 1 post every 24 hours and then repeat this question. Make sure you put content in that post too. You still can make up for lost time

Gawd, those posts you just made smack of "look at me be helpful and say tsk tsk calm down you hotheads"

There's nothing wrong with bringing a reasonable edge into the game, but on day one there really isn't "reason", just the same old arguments that pop up every game.


Ah the hothead vote. Interesting how long you left your joke vote on Karo for so long only to put it on me for being too reasonable on day 1. Do you think Karo is inno now?

I'm back. I don't like Tulas' "I'll vote Sorrit if it makes you quieten down" reply to Tellan. Smacks of someone wanting a train to start but not being able to, or perhaps not being bothered with, finding a legitimate reason.



Edit: one too many "finding"s.

Damn, my sentence above is still grammatically incorrect. Must self-flagellate late.

I don't like OE's post trying to make some suspicion where none exists. Smacks of being really wrong. You'll notice I didn't actually vote.

You haven't voted because Tellan didn't give you his assent, presumably. Had he said, "yeah, ok!", I bet we would have seen a Tulas vote on Sorrit.

And of course I'm trying to lay some suspicion - not necessarily where none exists (because it does exist, at least in my head) - that is the point after all. Poke, prod, question, see what comes of it.

Prodding is all well, but you're making stuff up.

Back and kind of caught up. From what i can see it seems to be a whole lot of people not really saying anything but pretending that they are.
Il give it a reread now, see if anything else jumps out at me.

What did I make up - my dislike of you promising a vote on someone if another person changes the way they act? That's not fake dislike, believe me.

ok reading back through all that was kind of painful to my eyes :S Right now im very tempted to just vote Telann because he's so annnoying but he's probably not a killer being that annoying to people.

Liosans posts definitely seem to be an awful lot of nothing with repeated statements that he's doing something, Sorrit is another one who seems to be in the "whole lot of nothing" camp. So I could quite happily vote for either of them right now.

She said, he said. Can't be proven either way now. But I would have loved it if Tellan had come back and just said, 'yeah, ok, do that then', just to see if you actually would have.

I stand by the fact that at this early stage it's worth pointing out anything that strikes us as odd. And that did.

I will not argue with second line, it's generally helpful to town to scrutinize any strangeness
