Ok, re-read this whole thread AND looked on the player posts in isolation.
Here is an updated post count btw:
Now let's put them in neat little boxes, color coded for our convenience
REPLACE ME NOW(=have contributed
absolutely nothing, or have asked to be replaced)
lalaland - 1 post asking about mandy
cena - just confirmed
aceartemis - 1 joke vote
mandy - asked to be replaced
flores - ? not sure if you're serious about being replaced
I don't post, i lurk(=have contributed something but very little and seem way more interested in not getting noticed)
sensfan -only here because he's claiming he's away and he's usually not very talkative, otherwise it'd be "REPLACE ME NOW"
karel - just 2 barely contributing posts
Iliad - 1 post, it's a good post, but still just 1 post
naxus - Fos-ing daze and asking her to claim, that's about it
thezzaruz - 2 decent posts, claims he's been away, maybe, but for now still just 2 posts
I post, but i don't say anything(= they have a decent number of posts but haven't really said much looks like hiding in plain sight ...)
Jace - if you take away the trash posts he's got 1 post voting for daze and 1 post unvoting, that's it
daze - if we hadn't almost lynched her she'd probably be in the "Replace me now" category, as it is she's got several posts along the lines of "don't lynch me guys" and one post role claiming
Tails - out of 17 posts
TWO are serious
saxlad - seriously, look at his posts, it'a amazing how little substance there is in 24 posts.
I have major tunnel vision(= players that seem ok, except they seem to have one fixation that occupies way too many of their posts)
Commander9 - he REALLY doesn't like herkman for some reason
Violet - she's friends with daze and thinks the game has 2 mafia's, that's pretty much it so far
pmc - he doesn't like nag
I blend in (the guys with nothing unusual, so therefore the most suspicious

)
blake - he barely makes it here, but disregarding the WTF "claim" i think he's got enough activity,barely
/ - few posts but almost all contribute, not bad
nagerous
spiesr
strikewolf
freezie
AoG
ga7
Victor
fircoal
edocsil
I left herkman out because he's got 70 fucking posts, he won't fit in anywhere, and i also left myself out due to obvious reasons(bias). The only thing I'll say about herkman is that it seems pretty clear to me that he's an overanxious town newb (great idea with the posts list btw).
Now, my thoughts:
The
"REPLACE ME NOW" group needs to be replaced, now.
The
"I blend in" group, well, blends in.
Of
the tunnel vision trio, pmc seems most harmless, he's probably there cause he's had few posts so far.
Violet, hmm well she certainly really is friends with daze, that could well be all there is to it i guess.
Commander is the most suspicious here imo. He's certainly a newb, but, as opposed to herkman, i really can't tell if he's a newb town who just "decided" herkman is scum for whatever reason and is doing his best to get him lynched, or a newb scum trying to appear active and contribute by starting a bandwaggon.
Of
the "post without saying anything" group, not much to say about daze(20 pages was enough).
Jace and Tails, pretty similar situation, not sure exactly what to make of it, guess they could just be trying to be active while also being lazy buggers. Don't just post guys, contribute.
Saxland - he's at another level compared to the rest + he switched voted a lot + he made this post:
Guys, This is my first mafia game as well.
I can assure you I am not mafia, and whether it be my death or whether the doc chooses to protect me, if a cop searches me and can back up I will roleclaim next round.
You dont have to back me openly, just dont vote for me.
Which is odd to say the least. (ps: how would the cop back up your roleclaim just by not voting for you? that doesn't back up your roleclaim at all since we don't know who the cop is)
However he's stated he's new, voted like crazy because he wanted to be active and he does seem to have improved lately so i wouldn't go for him just yet.
And the lurkers:Iliad and Thezzaruz you at least had some decent posts, but we need you guys to become more active
sensfan - put up an excuse at least, if he doesn't become active fast it's looking bad for him though
karel & naxus - no excuse, almost no contribution
Conclusion - for you skimmers, you should be ashamed
Now, here's the thing. We aren't going to be able to replace 7+ people that are completely inactive/massive lurkers. It's just not going to happen. I'm being really optimistic saying we can replace the 5 i marked.
So we have these lurkers and it isn't likely we'll replace them. We also have no leads.
I propose we take the lurkers close to lynch, if they start talking, great. But i mean real contributions, not just a few "don't lynch me posts".
If they don't start talking we gain most of the benefits that are gained by a lynch(possibility of scum, role info, info about everyone else based on how they act) and only lose a person who wasn't contributing and likely couldn't be replaced. A pretty good deal, yes?
So based on the above, and on the fact that naxus has 4 posts evenly spaced out so it seems he's somewhat following the thread, i'll
Vote naxus PHEW
