And as everyone leaves, I arrive. I have some shaky wifi so I'm on my phone. Barghast's idea is a good plan to stop lynch manipulations, but I don't plan to vote for him. Anyone willing to give a quick summary of the mayoral candidates, judges, etc?

Me, Jalan, Barghast are the mayoral candidates. I haven't settled on a judge yet, but I'm leaning towards Demelain. Jalan wants Fanderay as judge. You know Barghast's plan. Demelain has stated he will lynch Cast, Merrid and Grasp. Fanderay has stated he will lynch Liosan, Cast and Lock.

Its 2>2>1 with Jalan in 3rd place. The goal is that Jalan and I should be first and second so that if the majority pick is blocked we don't wind up with Barghast as the alternate.

I will point out that what I offered is the barest of skeletal structures of the last 10 pages since day start. I highly recommend reading them for yourself. I, for one, am off to bed. Gute nacht kinder.

Y'all were chatty after I left. On a phone so won't be commenting much. Hope to at least read up on what has gone down while I was away.

Fanderay, I'm open to a Jalan vote but remind me who your lynch picks were? Lio, Lock and Cast? I'd rather you didn't lynch Lock as I kind of liked our chat yesterday.

EDIT: [3]

It's only lioson and cast. I opted to not do a third one so as to not have too many deaths all at once in case I was grossly wrong about my selections. Like I said I'm only 85-90 % sure of my lynch candidates.

Yeah can you refresh our memories here? I have no idea what your and Merrid's beef is with each other. I'm having a hard enough time keeping up let alone able to go back and reread the thread.

I haven't selected a judge yet. I've announced I'm running for mayor and will choose before RNVP from the people that have posted their lynchees on thread. In order that people my campaign for judge I've stated people that I don't like and I'm more likely to select a judge from people that don't like the same people. As far as Merrid is concerned, I'll go back and cherry pick some quotes I don't like.



Well we haven't reach that deadline yet and I've stated who I want lynched. I even only selected 2 canidates so we don't run into a situation where one faction finds themselves on the cusp of winning after one lynch. Just seems wrong.

Exactly the point I made earlier. This is Mafia, the point of the game is to talk shit through, and make inferences from the results of things. If everything is decided off thread, then we're basically killing the basic principle of Mafia.


[0]



However, the only talk we are getting seems to be people complaining that someone else made some comment days ago or placed a vote. Since when has 'I once got voted for' been a power group in games?

[1]



Since everyone (potentially) has access to finds and off-thread comms.

(3)


Brag about your find then. Convince us.

[1]


I've got nothing I can brag about. I'm making an assumption that Lock & Cast were the ones making a find hence why they wanted to lynch me so therefore if they want me gone then I should want them gone as well. Add in the aggressive move Cast made against me I feel even safer about that assumption at least where Cast is concerned.

(2)


Erm, someone hasn't read the VCs very carefully. The people who want you dead you do not need to kill for your VCs, same as those you want dead do not need to kill you.

[1]



I have read the VCs. But if there are people who need me dead and are actively trying to kill me what am I suppose to do just lie down and let them gain another step of their VC at the expense of one of my teams assets? If the options are only me dead or them dead it's not much of a choice now is it. And if all the information I am going on is what I'm inferring from the thread then who is to say I won't be gaining toward my VC by attacking them. Neither of them has confirmed nor denied knowing that I'm not on their faction. I am voting based on assumptions. I could very well be making a huge ass of myself based on those assumptions. I could be gaining towards my VC, staying the same or WCS shooting myself in the foot. The last option I very much doubt but it's still a possibility.

Merrid does, you're dislike for me come from me pointing out you using your dice day one? I think it does if you go back and reflect. I've actually not said anything untoward in your direction. It's funny how Hentos liked Barghast yesterday, but now thinks him retarded. What is wrong with us lynching the same as yesterday but plus one? Lynch Hentos fanderay and me even? Keeping Fanderay the CHICKEN is no good for anyone. He didn't even accept a shoot out. Marty McFly would be turning in his grave.

By the last movie Marty McFly finally got smart and didn't give in to the whole YELLOW manipulation. I am actually proud of my spinelessness.

Vote Jalan. Until I get more of a read from you you are not on my list of players I want to see dead so go and vote Jalan so we can get the train farther along

And here we see the problem. We currently have 3 lynch targets. Those people will not vote for the chain that lynches them. We have had failed lynches. The number of unused lynches will possibly grow longer.

Now, why would people not want others dead?

We all want probably 8 alts killed off.

Or do we?

Were we to be pursuing a location-based victory, killing the lynches actually works in our favour. Multiple failures to elect will dominate the thread discussion and hide to an extent the creep of location ownership. We're aware of it at the start of the day, when was the last time *you* thought about it?

I suggest that there may be more to this failed lynch than people seem to be thinking of.

[1]


Hence why I dropped Lock off of my lynch targets. I think we should lynch more than one as to "catch up" but I don't think any Judge should lynch all possible choices as the chances of a stall lynch raises each and every day where the Judge can lynch more and more players.

Seriously?

Why Hentos? Care to explain?
