active? no one is active in the other game... it's dead, dead, dead. :(

active? no one is active in the other game... it's dead, dead, dead. :(

 

yeah, some of us are  ::)

 

and i'm sorry i'm so inactive, I guess with everyone else being like that, I get like that as well. maybe the games with no spam has really affected us  :o

 

anyways, back to the game..

 

I have no suspicions at the moment, and I can only blame the lack of activity in the game. as it looks now, anyone can be an evil, but if I have to, I will vote May, only for the reason Talya came with. what else have we to work on?

[Kryos]

Nothing else for us to work on Danya, though then again, Talya could be evil and stepping in as the first one to make a suggestion in a slow game. Sounds like a sound strategy to me. Hard to say really. Lack of activity does really make it much more difficult to make any guesses or anything. But that's the only thing I've got, anything else, and I am actually kind of lost. Her choice is as good as any though since no one has anything to go on, and I'm unfortunately too trusting of Talya so I won't believe she's evil until someone has 100% proof.

 

[glow=red,2,300]Mayleigh[/glow]

 

Only because I have trust in Talya's hunches and such.

*makes a daisy chain*

 

how are you jelly? what do you think?

[loki redfern]

hmmm interesting *pretends to ponder*

[Vemynal]

ok I'm bored and this game is boring, al we have done is bandwagon twice now that I can see...

 

for the hell of it I'm gonna vote [glow=red,2,300]Talya[/glow] for her May vote

 

cides, what mafia game could be without a vemy/talya clash of wills? ^^

[Talya]

:D thanks Vemy...very true it wouldn't be, though I'm keeping my vote on May for the time being, though I could change if you want.. ;)

 

To be honest I didn't expect people to follow me on that vote, either people are being lazy or trying to make me look evil :-\...no sure

[Vemynal]

i'd say lazy for the most part, that and we have little to no info on the mafia it seems  :-\

 

To be honest I only voted you to just as a gag but really we got nothing here =/

 

this is very much stretching, but its *all* I can think of:

 

We have someone who knows what they are doing on the mafia team, at least one. They killed someone who didn't vote day 1 and has been really helpful for us in the past when innocent. It could have just been luck but again, I stretch.

 

My second thought is that its a smart player who has played in one of the games where fdm was *VERY* advantageous to the innocents, i know she was in the aiel game i did and I remember her being dead on as a finder in the game where I had a paranoid finder/vig role. I'm tired and its 1am but lok for advanced players who were in either of those games and are in this game, again a stretch I know.

 

here was yesterdays votes:

bcx(6)Tigara, redffern, Talya, Jelly, Vemynal, mayleigh Aes Sedi

Naenn (1) Naenn

 

here is today's vote count so far (which reminds me, I [glow=red,2,300]unvote[/glow])

May(3): talya, barm, kryos

 

I agree that we likely had one mafia member at least on the day 1 count, and I think we can ignore tig since the mafia players usually lay low. I'd say the three most guilty looking for day 1 as far as the voting order goes are me, may and jelly in no particular order.

 

as for today's vote count who knows, to be honest I'd doubt talya's evil for the fact that she instigated the vote (I remember her when she played Rahvin in the nuthouse game and bandwagoned almost the whole game). Its metagaming but people do have playing patterns.

 

Also consider who has made mafia kills in this style in the past, a kill that leaves no information. I remember sboyd did once a *long* time ago in alys' vampire game but he's our mod.

 

remaining players who I would say at least know what they are about are:

Loki

Danya

Barm

me

Alys

and Talya

 

those of us who tend to play more intricately would be:

me barm and alys, loki and talya tend to lay low and danya I don't know well enough to put a pattern to

 

at this rate i really have no idea who to vote for but imo its gonna come down to either may or jelly for yesterday's vote or barm or alys for playing intricately. Since voting barm or alys though heedlessly would lose us good players if innocent its likely gonna come down to may or jelly for me.

 

Hope some of this helps, a *LOT* of its stretching and metagaming but at this poitn thats all i can really do =/

[Talya]

I agree there is hardly anything to go on. I choose May, only becasue she has done two posts the entire game and was on that bandwagon vote and has been more active in the other game. Doesn't prove anything I know.

 

As for todays lynch. Barm and Kryos were quick to jump on my vote. Maybe one of them is evil too, neither voted on day one, which I think is odd. Out of the two here I'm more inclined to go with Kryos, becasue he said that he thought I was innocent (well I know that I am), but it would be one way of trying to align yourself with an innocent player. Besides I don't know if he is always so trusting in a game :-\

 

For the moment my vote sticks, as all of it is just grabbing at straws. But I would like to hear from other players.

 

An another note, Alys was quite happy to sit back and make her comments about Bcx being innocent, did she know he was, and has little to say on the game it's self. :-\

[loki redfern]

um well i was actually kinda geting evil vibes of talya, and usually its pretty hard to read her for me, as she usually lies almost as low as danya i think, but she seems very active this game, but mostly is just hunch, hmm i actually wasnt going to vote now but go and think on it a bit, but usually my hunchs are pretty accurate and i alway regret later not doing anything about it so [glow=red,2,300]Talya[/glow]( :-* )

[goldeneys]

Hey, I thought I was active, I posted in here...once...

 

hmm, well, as Mayor of the town, I should remain impartial...so, I won't vote for Loki cuz he's cooler than me...

 

Ok, here's my hypothesis, not sure how good it is, but lets see how it goes. How about we look at the people who haven't voted today, yet we know are active. Alys, Danya, and Jelly. Time for background checks, right?

 

Alright, Alys Kinch, a moderator on Fiddlesticks, 9,175 posts, which averages out to 13.014 PPD (Posts Per Day). Yeah, maybe not that much background.

 

Okay, seriously now. Talya's first vote was on the grounds of "I'm feeling lazy". I know that in the first day it is a little hard to know who to choose, and most votes are chosen at random, yet I would like to point out that this does not come with her list of reasons, though this is probably due to the fact that we had not been playing all that long by this time, and there were not enough posts to have reasons.

 

Jelly simply 'jumped on the bandwagon' after Talya had voted and there were four votes against Bcx already. However, was it suspiciously soon after Talya's vote? 15 minutes if you check. It strikes me that they may have been MSNing or PMing back and forth, and agreed on who they would vote for, then decided not to post exactly together.

 

Alys, I'm not sure about Alys, maybe it's her perpetual look of innocence getting to me and not letting me say anything bad about her. Still, she did not vote the first day, even though she was active for at least part of it, this really means nothing though.

 

So, who do I think is guilty? I'm looking at a Talya\Jelly mafia team. Their votes seem coordinated thus far. They first voted for Bcx, then they killed off FDM during the night, and now are trying to look as if they are not a team by Jelly hanging back and playing with daisy chains.

 

Of course, Barm is not beyond suspicion..he is after all, Barm...oh, btw, I vote for [glow=red,2,300]Jelly[/glow], and would ask at least Vemy to consider this, as she is on his danger list. I see her as almost certainly a Mafia, whether her partner in evilness is Talya or some other fiddler on the roof...

[goldeneys]

Hey that's what they all say...except Loki...

[MsDanya]

how come people thing i'm lying low always!  :P

 

Jelly didnt seem too concerned that Goldy voted for her. maybe she thinks only saying she's innocent is enough to not being lynched? hm.

 

I have to say that now i'm most tempted to vote for May, but i'm gonna hold for now.

[MsDanya]

really? no defense? huh...

[goldeneys]

Hey, can I pry it away from your cold dead hands after we lynch you?

[goldeneys]

Well I guess that works...but wait...what if you're trying to bribe me?

 

*takes chocolate and munches it contentedly in the corner*

[Talya]

lol...Well I'll have some chocolate there JB if you don't mind ;D

 

*wishes she had some here...*...I hate cleaning >:(

[loki redfern]

:( i could do with some too, ..putting of the cleaning for two weeks ..not good ..which reminds me ..um yeh after this and maybe saturday nigth er i wont be around until march um not sure what you want to do with that, you can alway lynch me instead of another innocent i guess

i still think yo is evil lady miss talya :P :-*

[Talya]

:o Loki...how could you say that...I'll do you cleaning for you...what am I saying I hate cleaning....argggg...

 

well Loki I thik you are innocent...actually I don't know but just trying to make you feel bad..is it working?...is it? :-*
