Safari, why would you play so agressively with a survivor role (you posted a lot since D1 and lead the case on Violet, shouldn't a survivor try to contribute as few as possible as to not rise in the mafia's priority list of who to kill?)?
Jonty, please pinpoint when you did your research to conclude that Safari was Prometheus.

While Prometheus seems the obvious choice about being chained to a rock, I would like to point out that out of the Titans, he's probably one of them that seems less likely to be mafia. I think he probably cares less about Godly affairs and more about the fate of mankind (giving the fire). And Hercules eventually frees him, and we don't hear anything more about him.
Supposedly, he helps the Olympian Gods during the Great War, but again, with all the sources, we cannot be sure. I'm just saying that a chained god is vague enough that it could be almost any prisoner of Tartarus, but I don't remember Cronus being cut to pieces.

Forget what I said. The part about Cronos appears to have been from an unreliable source.
Would that be wikipedia. Anyone wasn't Kronos sent in pieces to Tartarus. Note to mod you need to adjust first post title becuase it says 11/11 and chap needs to be on a dead list. Let's hope we have a watcher who saw who killed chapcrap.

So two jokevotes, and Vio proving her role. I believe that says it all.

I already explained this before. We were pressuring Vio because of supposed inactiveness at other times in mafia and on the site as a whole. With that as the predecessor, I saw no reason to not pressure jonty into a claim since we were basically just pressuring for no reason anyway.
The reason why we pressure an inactive is because they are no help to town because a) harder to get a lynch and b) don't hear their view and can't get scumtells
I thought you would have known this and are dropping scumtells left and right unvote vote chapcrap
That would be a gutsy move if you were mafia and I believe it unvote
I aren't going to vote no lynch because finishing the day early is of no value to town as people may still drop scumtells or voting patterns for D2.

But I'll try to explain why I believe saf over jonty.Rodion wrote:If we have a town watcher, we should be able to get one scum down (you watched Chap like I told you, right?!).
Apparently, Safari took Rodion's advice from Day 1 and watched chap last night. It is quite obvious why Saf choose to watch chap. As chap was a claimed townie (doctor), he was most likely going to be the mafia's choice for a night kill.
This makes me doubt that safari is lying. Any smart watcher in this game, naturally would have chosen Chap. I don't think safari would be bold enough to to lie about his role, knowing how likely it would be for the "real" watcher to counterclaim him.
Now in the very next post, Strike asks a question regarding the Chained God, and other game related flavor. Jonty posts next, and answers Strike's by providing some information from Wiki.jonty125 wrote:strike wolf wrote:strike wolf wrote:Chained God seems to be Kronos (no surprise) as part of his punishment was to carry a chain.

Violet wrote:I think it is the context, that makes this post scummy. However, I will need another quote to reference why (see below). Going by what I stated above, I find it fitting that Jonty would claim to be a flavor cop. Now I can't say it's certain that a role like that can't exist. But, I don't see how receiving three images of a player/character can give any indication of their alignment. And it's just too uncanny that with all the discussion of Prometheus- that Jonty just happens to know/guess safari's exact role.

Jonty mentioned learning about Greek mythology in school. But if he received three images (fire, liver, eagle), it's understandable that he could correctly gather that the images describe Prometheus. Yet, if you think back to Jonty's previous post, he was making a distinction between the evil gods, and the kind-hearted ones.
Violet wrote:The day scene and the discussion that follows, highly implicate that whomever that Chained God was- is most likely the Mafia Godfather. Again, we can't be certain of that- but that character was responsible for chap's death.
So Jonty already sub-consciously admits that he think Prometheus is a harmless role, in comparison with the role of Kronos or whomever the Chained God might be. This leads me to belive that Jonty must have gotten some information about alignment, in addition to recieving the three images.
Violet wrote:In a subsequent post, Strike and Safari explain that it's unlikely that Prometheus could be mafia, as he tends to side with the mortals. Saf even subtly added that he could be third party. Jonty later agrees with both of these points.
Violet wrote:However:jonty125 wrote:
Vote Saf for being an hypocrite and this is not OMGUS!!
This is right after safari brings up his case against Jonty. However, when Jonty was placing this vote, he supposedly ALREADY knew Safari's role. And in other posts, he stated that Prometheus wasn't a bad role.
Violet wrote:Why would any towns person do this?
This is the equivalent of a "townie," investigation another townie at night, and receiving an innocent response. Yet, that cleared townie votes them in the thread, and they give an omgus vote right back at them. That just makes no sense. You don't give an omgus vote to someone whom you've supposedly cleared from being mafia.
Violet wrote:Now I'm going to analyze Jonty's actions from an entirely different persective. Let's say- ignoring all the flavor posts- that Jonty investigated saf, and felt that Prometheus was an anti-town role. Then, as Rodion advised, why would Jonty not try to start a subtle case against safari at the beginning of Day 2?
Violet wrote:Instead, Jonty started the Day out with flavor posts, which I quoted above.
Violet wrote:Of course, discussing the flavor is important to understand the scene. But flavor discussions mostly take place when the game is at somewhat of a hiatus. Meaning, that there are no active leads or scum-hunts at the moment, so people will mention flavor in order to generate discussion.
Jonty failed to mention a motive for investigating safari in the first place. Not only that- but if he truly felt saf was scum, why waste so much time with the flavor posts? Also, he gave no reasoning for voting saf, other than:jonty125 wrote:
Vote Saf for being an hypocrite and this is not OMGUS!!
However it was an omgus. His vote would have been much better received, if he came out with his investigation, or at least more circumstantial evidence. He provided neither, which screams of a scum reaction to me.

Chap's suspicions were based on me being at L-2. Why was I at L-2?. 2 JOKEVOTES AND PROOF OF ROLE!! You carried on using the same logic as him and that logic wreaked of scum. That's why I voted you.safariguy5 wrote:Conditions have changed, which means that comparing a post made on Day 1 to that of Day 2 isn't necessarily analogous
I still don't see how they had changed. 4 posts had been made when you voted me. Two from strike about flavour on who did the kill, Rodion, giving advice on how to play, and myself commenting on strike and hoping for a watcher. How does that make chapcrap's logic alright to use!
