I am going to

Vote Tattersail.

Sorry for the absence guys, it has been crazy.
That being said, on to a bit of content: the explanation for the vote above is that Tattersail has applying super glue instead of proper means of construction to his own suspicions/arguments. Yeah, a flimsy thing can stick, but I prefer proper nuts and bolts. It seems he is determined to lead a discussion and judge what are good or bad decisions (or town play), now also in hindsight.

The vote on Khell is the latest and most blatant of the bunch. Am I falling for the old issue where Tattersail is scummy no matter what? Maybe. I really think it might be a possibility and him being a towny. Tatts can change styles on the fly, and as far as meta goes, those playstyles can be either scum or town. On the other hand, I do get the idea he's once again building smoke screens by flitting from one person to the next with a bunch of post its containing 'scummy' 'not scummy' 'soooo scummy'.

I'm not opposed to a Tatts lynch, and I'm leaning that way at the moment. The only issue I have is that I feel like his play is more distracting and sympish, so have been trying to decide who he could be symping.

Tatts is always sympish. Why do you keep repeating this sentiment about tapps, saying you'll vote but never really committing. You are totally hiding in plain sight Bliss.

Tapper you've done so well to discredit my posts labelling me as scum either earlier as symp or whatever that was above. I'm town so I don't know what I can do to convince you of that this game. I debated saying nothing at all this game day as there are 14 players alive and I see scumminess in most of them. Like yesterday no one found HO scummy like I did otherwise he'd have gathered more than 1 or 2 votes.

I mention Khell and macros today but so far no one has agreed with any of my observations.

I could just be vague like HO and say something about this post is off. Fucking astute.

You've got a small suspect pool for town Tapper. You're better than this.

No, I just don't have a read on many people.
As for targeting one person 'exclusively', that partly is because you are everywhere, and then it is easy to set off alarm bells. Especially when you go against Khell today for what I can only call good but unfortunate town play. Why do you want Khell specifically gone?


because he is a slimey slippery son a of a bitch, who will CF scum, and if he is scum will be tough to lynch regardless. What makes you think he is not scum?

Though to counter point, why does Tatts keep saying he read up on my scum behavior but never following up with an analysis of my current behavior. I feel like I am getting set up.

vote lynch nom


He's not the target I would choose (Bubba/Coltaine) but I do want a lynch and he has been rather shifty.



Heh, if Nom turns up scum, and you jumped on that train long after Nom had already reached the required number of votes for a lynch, and indeed two hours after day would have ended anyway, I would say that will look pretty shifty, especially if you then try and play the noob card to explain it, knowing that you're not actually new to mafia elsewhere.


You argue that I am not new to mafia, but you do assume that I'm inexperienced enough at this game that I would drop in a last-minute vote on a teammate to gain town cred. Not sure how these points go together. If I was scum wouldn't I at the very least pretend he was a top suspect of mine as well?

I was honestly not aware about the current vote standings, since I rushed through the thread realizing I was late. You'll notice I asked about the lynch procedure not long before that and decided to support the Nom vote based on the answer.

Dhenrabi. Nom already got lynched and we are awaiting the resolution. Unless you are pretending and making it seem like you're in with the team. But since youre new I will give benefit of the doubt, specially if Nom turns out to be a Townie.


I didn't catch that the votes were locked (are they even?) and I wasn't sure about the actual state of affairs in the numbers department.


Does anybody see the need to talk about this?

Well that sucks 3RI gone

The lynch? Day one is all I can say about that. Everyone is looking at the train, I'm more interested in who wasn't on it. The best hiding place on a train is never getting on in the first place.

Mess? Grudge killing? taking out the helpful players? I'm willing to bet Mess was high up on a few lists.

Sergiej? Who said we should kill/lynch the new players? I remember reading that. Kell?


We have on kill from the killers and one from the vig. Propably. Can a vig also be part of the scum?
Assumption: Vig is from the town
So we have to take for both kills into account why the killers wanted to see them dead and why the vig could have thought that they are killers. If the vig is one of us we could lose another town member by killing him.

I would guess that Mess was killed by the killers, maybe for being to helpful, or being to good as a player.

And Sergiej had good posts. But I can't find a reason for someone to think he was part of the scum. So maybe reverse? Sergiej killed by killers and Mess by vig? Sergiej voted against Gust Hubb. Can't remember why. I will search the post.


Something about this post I dislike.

Curse you new players! I don't remember which one of you it was, or if it was more than one of you even, but one of the new players at least was making some very good arguments yesterday - if that player was Sergiej, that could very well be the reason he was killed.

One thing, though - everyone is assuming a Vig - I was about to say it could be a Faceless Man, but that's not possible without playing in game alts...

So other things it COULD be is a Serial Killer, though usually a SK is announced in the OP.

Guess it's not a stretch that there's a vig in game. If that's the case, I'd say that Messremb was likely the vig's target. I know that if I had gotten the vig role, I probably couldn't have resisted from killing off Mess.


Serg got taken out because he was being helpful and insightful. Seems pretty clear.

Mess.... to be honest I thought Mess was a Symp. After his defence of HO I was 60% sure. If there is a Town Vig and this is a big If, it could be an independent, then they may have thought Mess to be scum as well


Oh, are you saying that you killed him because he was too smart for his own good?

Regarding Mess, I wondered at the time why he was backing me up. I appreciated it, but it could have been taken as either symping or fake symping. It's risky to defend someone.



So, you are accusing me of being the Town vig? If you are Town why the hell would you do that? Town vig is on your side? Unless you are scum?

I'm curious to see if he responds to this one Ando, since he ignored me both times that I've pointed out this behavior previously. I'd also like to point out that in the post where he voted Tatts, he mentioned he did it because he doesn't like people being helpful to newbies. Dislike of newbies + death of Sierg? Weak, I know. But it's still something to think on.


At this stage we can't afford to narrow down our thoughts and actions yet. If he hated being helpful to newbies, why was he silent on Mess? That was half of what Mess was doing.

A little busy, but I want to list out Lady Bliss, Khell and HO as well. After that we can see if we can't find a pattern.

Also irritatingly enough, the NK on Mess does not tell us much. Any veteran would be uncomfortable with Mess as he is devious. I thought he was scum as he was being so nice. I kept quiet and had planned to keep a sharp eye on him for Day 2.

As a counter, if the killer is a newbie, he might want to take out this vocal player who is everywhere

So the kill could have come from Town or Scum. On the other Serg's kill is more interesting. I don't think anybody would take "Scum likes lists" seriously enough to kill, but maybe the list caught something?


Serg has to be the scum kill. It is a classic throw the thread into confusion. Was it his vote on Gust? Was it his newb status and thus a target for the haters? Did someone see danger in his thought processes?

Just a thought, but what if Tapper killed him? That would be an interesting distancing approach, no?


This is odd. GH refers to himself in the third person, then throws shade on Tapper. Why him? I would like this to be explained.


So this is HO today. He is basically poking at things and giving a good appearance of somebody reading and questioning, but aside from saying "something is wrong", is providing very little content. And then there is that Howler upthread when he accuses me of being a Town vig.

I don't like this at all

Vote HO

That game you played Bliss (A Newb Game) were you were a symp (alkend) you kept labelling other people as being a symp. If you think me a symp, then who the fuck am I symping?

Tapper says I am all over the place, ready to lynch anybody, and you think I'm symping by doing this.



When. When was the last time we caught a symp? When was we last right about a symp? If you're saying that because a killer wouldn't play this way then you're right, I doubt they would.

So far this game I've voted multiple people, Ando, Blend, HO, Khell, and cast suspicion at others. Aren't the killers meant to try fit in and get people on their side and last until the end of the fucking game?

Small suspect pool like Tapper, or awesome townie like Khell, or mr excuse like Macros, or fucking whimsy nonsense like HO. Fuck sake.

To be perfectly fair, being everywhere and wanting to lynch anybody and everybody does sound like your default strategy. Posted Image

I have voted on HO and am not sure at all about Macros' vote jumping on day 1

Fine, I don't mind sharing, others can look out for this if you/they're still around and haven't found scum.

The 2 games I found with Gust/Corv as scum were A Newb Game, and Mafia 80 - Benses IV.

Both games he was a high poster, more invested towards the end of day than the beginning. Both games he was late to the party day one, missing a bit of the idle chatter, and both games he voted early. Within 1 or 3 posts. As scum he likes to be on every lynch train. I remember towards end game he gets quite excited, and posts a lot more, and votes quickly. He can be persuasive but I know what to look out for.
He does not mind starting trains or hopping aboard them to get them flowing. He hammered fellow scum in the newb game.

Fun note, he actually likes to off people who accuse him, in the benses games he killed galayn lord night one who was one of the only people to suspect him.

Yeah, and I thought we could eliminate Gust as possible killer, as Serg was the only one voting for him. Not a real threat.

I remember towards end game he gets quite excited, and posts a lot more, and votes quickly. He can be persuasive but I know what to look out for.
He does not mind starting trains or hopping aboard them to get them flowing. He hammered fellow scum in the newb game.

Fun note, he actually likes to off people who accuse him, in the benses games he killed galayn lord night one who was one of the only people to suspect him.


If Gust really tends to kill people accussing him, he may be back on the list.

Reading up on Dhenrabi. There are several things to note. This is part 1

Vote Trump

A shame he is not partitioning. The only election he would get my vote.


As a first note, this post was edited and I really do not see why. Might be something as inconspicuous as a spelling error, but in my experience people who edit their posts are often scum trying to make something seem less scummy.
The Trump vote is an obvious joke, but in Coltaine's case it looks more like blending in with the group as a new player than as a continuation of the joke, especially since he considered two other people who might have fought back but he resorted to the joke vote.

17 players Tapper, can we get your take on possible mechanics? You think he may have thrown a recruiter into the mix?
Ah, decisions are important in mafia. When presented with those three options, Khell is the obvious choice Posted Image

Aaand both Macros and Khell make good points about Andorion, although not talking about the "non standard role", is like ignoring the elephant in the room. With 17 players, i'd think it would lean toward favouring scum.


I don't know anything about Tattersail's meta, but the first one is a very long post without making a single game-related point.
Also very interesting to note is how Tattersail first joined into Andorion's mechanics talk, then later claims that Macros and Khell make good points about him, while still (on his own) continuing the mechanics talk.
I think between Andorion and Tattersail, Tattersail came off more suspicious in this exchange.

[Vote lynch Tattersail]

Personally I made no premature conclusion about an affiliation of the non standard role


Why do you feel the need to secure people of your personal conclusion on this matter?





So he starts of by attacking Tats and Nom.

Oh short introduction since I've not found a better place to do it.

I'm new here, have been playing mafia for a long time on another forum though.

It seemed like great fun to me to join a new community where I'm not yet aware of everyone's meta and such.
I'm watching the mafia 'champions' game, since my other forum also sent a representative, and saw that there was a champion from Malazan Empire (that's you, bear man).
I'm a big fan of Malazan, and not a big fan of the ridiculously 'srs bsns' tone that the bigger mafia boards have, so this seemed perfect.

I'm going to enjoy playing with you all and hope you do the same :)



Note this post. He is not a mafia newbie, just new to Malazan mafia

Yeah a note for new players: unless forbidden you can edit your posts to correct spelling but not the content of them post. You should note this edit at the bottom of the edited post. I will demonstrate

Edit: speeeelling to spelling


Interesting. Do we just trust people on this or is there a way to check what the edit was?

Nevertheless since coltaine probably didn't know this on beforehand my point still stands.

I'm not too comfortable with the speed of the Tattersail wagon. I won't be around for quite a while, because of Koningsnacht/dag (Tapper will understand) so I'm going to change my vote for now.

[Vote lynch Coltaine93]


I have just skimmed most of the thread up to this point. I might be back before phase end to read up properly, but I'm not sure.



He is not comfortable with the speed of the Tattersail wagon, yet he voted on it pretty early. And his response is to fire off a random vote at Coltaine93? Makes no sense. This vote is the definition of driveby

Wow, lots of catching up to do! I've done a cursory read of all new content. Right now, I'm on board with being a little suspicious of HO today - none of his posts have really said anything of substance.

I'll be keeping my eye on Gust because of the stuff that Tatts pulled up regards "killing those who accuse him" - if someone other than Serg had died last night, I probably would have dismissed, but now it's something that I'll have to keep in mind as the game continues.

Tatts is throwing shit around in the way he usually does today, even OMGUS voted Khell as is very like him. So here's my deal with this - a lot of people who commented on Tatts during Day 1 commented that he wasn't playing very Tatts-like for the most part. Now it's Day 2, and I find he's moved back to normal Tatts behaviour. Is it possible that he is scum that was trying to lie low on Day 1, but realized that wasn't going to work, so he's reverting back to regular Tatts behaviour?

My sig comes from a game in which I didn't heed Blend's advice. So maybe this time I should. ~ Khellendros
I'm just going to have to come to terms with the fact that self-vote suiciding will forever be referred to as "pulling a JPK" now, aren't I? ~ JPK

Dhenrabi part 2

View PostDhenrabi, on 27 April 2016 - 03:10 PM, said:

Okay I went over everything. There isn't much time left so it would be nice if someone could answer this quickly for me.

What happens if a majority lynch isn't reached by day end? Does the person with the most votes get lynched or does a no lynch happen?

The rules are not totally clear on that.


edit: removed ugly coderidden quote



Again with the rule question. If he has played mafia before, and he has, according to him, this question was unnecessary.

He's not the target I would choose (Bubba/Coltaine) but I do want a lynch and he has been rather shifty.




What's with the Bubba/Coltaine aside? Zero reasons for that.

Heh, if Nom turns up scum, and you jumped on that train long after Nom had already reached the required number of votes for a lynch, and indeed two hours after day would have ended anyway, I would say that will look pretty shifty, especially if you then try and play the noob card to explain it, knowing that you're not actually new to mafia elsewhere.


You argue that I am not new to mafia, but you do assume that I'm inexperienced enough at this game that I would drop in a last-minute vote on a teammate to gain town cred. Not sure how these points go together. If I was scum wouldn't I at the very least pretend he was a top suspect of mine as well?

I was honestly not aware about the current vote standings, since I rushed through the thread realizing I was late. You'll notice I asked about the lynch procedure not long before that and decided to support the Nom vote based on the answer.

Dhenrabi. Nom already got lynched and we are awaiting the resolution. Unless you are pretending and making it seem like you're in with the team. But since youre new I will give benefit of the doubt, specially if Nom turns out to be a Townie.


I didn't catch that the votes were locked (are they even?) and I wasn't sure about the actual state of affairs in the numbers department.


He gets called on pretending to be new and is quite defensive.

This guy is really rubbing me the wrong way. We need to stop going easy on new players

Just pointing out the obvious, but we need a lynch this day. We lost three RI on day one.

I think both HO and Dhenrabi are good candidates from what I have seen so far. My vote is on HO for the moment
