[Official] Choose Your Own Mafia - TOWN WINS

[Metsfanmax]

and mets why are you sticking up for endgame so early? wcg made some good points against him,are you two scum buddies?

Yes. We agreed before the game started that our strategy would be for Endgame's first post to sound massively scummy and for me to immediately reveal myself as his partner.

[WingCmdr Ginkapo]

Dazza,benga,virus are all yet to even confirm.
Weak sauce

What is this? Its been 31 hours since game start and you're already getting jumpy about missing players? This is par for the course from Dazza and Virus so why highlight it?

I dont see much in the case against you, but come on what are you adding to the game? Pointless mechanics posts, and now this.

Ptlowe and Epitaph, plus Sausage plus Endgame as the two pairs... Look at their draft order. Perfect balance. This is where I sit at the moment, but its Pt I strongly believe to be scum, the rest is mostly circumstantial.

[Endgame422]

Wing,if ive added nothing,how can that lead you to believe im scum?
Are the 3 i mentioned also scum for adding nothing?
At least attack my post about HS being scum.
Which HS unvoting when i called his vote scummy seems like hes already trying to cover his ass.

It was already observed that we can infer nothing from draft order because the numbers were selected before alignment was given out. So, unless you think the mod gave out scum alignment in a non-random way, then please avoid speculation like this because it can create serious confusion.

Currently i dont really like HSs first post.

Confirmed, seems like I'm late to the party. vote benga since he picked last, probably doesn't have an important role so no need to have him around.

Benga seems an easy place to drop a vote right now. My vote is still there because id like some posting action out of him,but HS seems to be on trying to get a wagon going before benga even posts by adding on early and "making a case" on benga using the draft order as reasoning then he immediately turns around and says

Unlike some choose your own mafia's, we can't use the draft order as any kind of hint, since everyone picked their numbers before the factions were handed out.

Probably the scummiest opening post of anyone so far.

Ok, you want me to examine the case. Here is my opening post.

Confirm

Vote Benga for choosing terrible numbers.

I also started by voting Benga because he is almost certainly either vanilla townie or mafia good so not too much danger of a strong role mislynch here. Its solid play imo.

And here is your opening post.

Vote Benga
I havent seen you here before benga,you new or just been gone for a while?

Oh look you also went with this. So what exactly is your case? Hotshot was talking about versions of CYOM where the draft numbers are picked after alignment. It has no relevance on this game, but then neither should Dakky always joke voting Mitch and whatever that opening post from Tim was.

There you go I have discussed your case. I see zero in it.

Mets - I dont think non-random mafia draft positions should be discounted, but agree that this might be too early to suggest it.

[WingCmdr Ginkapo]

EBWOP Mafia Goon not mafia good

You can't speculate like that because I ended up vanilla townie and I wasn't last in the draft. And I didn't choose some big important role, but still ended vanilla.
So if most of people were scared to pick big roles, there could be those who picked them, including benga.

[benga]

confirm, will try to get asap in game, have 3 pages to rad and lots of alcohol to drink

Dude, why did you claim? Not that you are going to be a high value target on N1 anyway, given your draft position, but claiming VT like this only makes the Mafia/Sk's job easier. I really hope you are feigning VT but I doubt it the way you laid it out there.

Wing is acting pretty aggressive imo. I can't tell if he's just trying to stir stuff up or what. Making connections and strongly thinking someone is scum (ie ptolwe) this early is probably an exercise in futility.

[Endgame422]

Wing first off i voted benga before you did.
Your post seems to imply i wagoned on your vote,which is not the case.
Just because benga was last does not mean anything.
He may have been the only player who asked for bomb,or busdriver or one of the more random roles,and got it whereas several higher drafting players all asked for cop and ended up vanilla(see dakky)
As to HS his vote seemed like a weak bandwagon onto your(flawed imo)logic which he immediately retracted when i called it scummy.
If he thinks we cant read anything from the draft but then votes based on the draft why does that not raise some concern here?
He gave reason for his "jokevote" but gave no reason for unvoting it.
Lazy bandwagon+trying to appease people to avoid being lynched.
Assuming benga actually starts posting i have no reason to keep my vote there.
UNVOTE VOTE HOTSHOT
As to dakky claiming VT at random,i would put dakky as soft town based on that.

[dazza2008]

Vote Epi just because he's a cunt.

[madmitch]

EBWOP Mafia Goon not mafia good

maybe you really meant that mafia is good so does that make you scummy? Also I hate to agree with dakky about roles because I ended up like dakky .

[TimWoodbury]

so i say we kill dakky or mitch they claimed Vanillia so dont hurt anything to kill either 1 of them right

[ptlowe]

unvote vote timhmmm...that seeems just as scummy as you seemed in last game.

[madmitch]

well right now I have two major choices for my vote, either Tim for his scummy statement or dazz for the lack of respect in using that language no vote for now

[ptlowe]

@wing,so how am I exactly, "strongly scum." I think you need to get your glasses check and stop pulling stuff out of your butt. So far I dont have much of a read on anyone. I think its too hard to tell at this point and for you to have a hard read your desperate for something. What comes to my mind is taking focus off yourself and throwing it on to someone else. The quote below shows your attempt at persuasion of others is to constantly say Im scum until people believe it. So persistence persuasion of a myth.

The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie, deliberate, contrived and dishonest, but the myth, persistent, persuasive and unrealistic.
John F. Kennedy

Not sure about the love affair between hotshot and endgame. Other than that Tim's last post is the first scummy read I have gotten. That may just his attempt at a joke. But I know we need to watch him.

[dakky21]

Dude, why did you claim? Not that you are going to be a high value target on N1 anyway, given your draft position, but claiming VT like this only makes the Mafia/Sk's job easier. I really hope you are feigning VT but I doubt it the way you laid it out there.

I claimed because Wing made a pretty nice speculation about the draft order and the only way to prove him wrong was to claim.
I know it may have bad results, but anyway, it can also have good results as his speculations or reads can be wrong, like last 3 games.

so i say we kill dakky or mitch they claimed Vanillia so dont hurt anything to kill either 1 of them right

If you're town aligned, then killing me is bad move.... I am town aligned, but I am vanilla... and you can't get me on your "newbie shit" anymore.... last game I thought you're newbie but no more.

unvote -- vote Tim

well right now I have two major choices for my vote, either Tim for his scummy statement or dazz for the lack of respect in using that language no vote for now

And giving no vote or no lynch..... sometimes means you don't care who will get lynched. As soon as someone GETS lynched. FOS madmitch.... and you joke voted me, you didn't do that in last 3 games... so... FOS on you.....

[madmitch]

oh I care who gets voted , just want to hear more from Tim and Daz about their comments and like to hear what everyone else has to say before I make my final say, don't want to repeat my past mistakes

[HotShot53]

UNVOTE VOTE HOTSHOT
As to dakky claiming VT at random,i would put dakky as soft town based on that.

As I said, it was a joke vote... which implies a joke reason... I guess I should have paid more attention to everyone else's joke votes to make sure I came up with a more unique one. And my "reason" for unvoting was because... it was a joke vote. And since some people seemed to take it too seriously, I removed it.

Why are people claiming VT right off the bat without even any pressure? Isn't half a VT's job to appear more powerful and absorb kills instead of more powerful roles?

I claimed because of the Wing's speculations, to show him he is wrong with assumption that top draft players (mets, Tim, epi...) picked the top roles like cop, doctor, bulletproof, double-voter etc. Since being 12th on the draft list, I chosen the role I believed is most useless, and still ended vanilla, which means someone above me picked it first.

Also, I agree with you on that, but how would one bait mafia in a kill... If you fakeclaim cop, someone will counterclaim and you will be lynched... and mafia will kill the counterclaimed cop. If you fakeclaim but the real cop stays silent, it might work but then you will be asked D2 who did you visit and end lynched D2. So either way you will get lynched and that is not good for town however you put it.

[WingCmdr Ginkapo]

You do not claim cop, you do not claim. That way mafia do not know what role you are, and if they guess incorrectly may night kill you.

Dakky you were 12th draft, Mitch was 14th. I am suggesting that players need the end of the list are more likely to be powerless. You two are confirming that theory. You claim was not required or in anyway helpful. There are very few circumstances in which it is beneficial for town to claim their role early.

I am not reading much into this, as both you and Mitch are liable to claim early for idiotic rather than scum reasons.

[virus90]

oops been a while since last mafia game not a regular in the forum no more. i Confirm!

i can go with the end of list theory, but i would like to pick a target that wingcmdr isnt choosing then. i mean the idea has some merit in my opinion but could just be scum telling the idea. so rather not have wing in charge of the selection then

I get what you say, but then you shouldn't have stayed onto your theory for so long. And push it so hard.

On the other hand, you're not reading what I said - if I was 12th and ended up vanilla for choosing boring role, that could as well mean 15th pick chose something important and got the role.
All I'm trying to say - only mets got his wanted role, everyone else can be vanilla or have a big role, even by being 15th.

@ endgame how to you feel about your partner selling you out so early in the game? who are you A or B mafia?
