Chocolate Factory Mafia game over - Congratulations dragonsworn1991 and Jeran

[Jeran]

I hope to have a lynch by posting why we need a lynch.  I did this so now it's out of my hands since I am off to bed soon. 

[mnwhiterose]

Yes, I would like to know why I am so dangerous to Hybrid. To my knowledge, I haven't tried anything against him except for a random vote.

 

I'll join the alliance - let's vote out Lia or Hybrid.

[Spirit1025]

I think Spirit should vote with us. *nods*

Rosie already is....

 

I want a lynch at this point and I don't especially care who it is (other than myself). Unless I'm missing something, we still have the most votes for rose. So, switching my vote would do less good than leaving it where it is. Why don't you vote with US, meesh? =)

 

I will only change my vote if doing so will get us at least closer to a lynch. I'll be off and on until late tonight, checking up on things.

[mmeeshal]

Why not vote for Rose?

 

Because Jeran and Hybrid are slavering over a lynch on her, and have from Day 1.  That reeks to me.

 

I don't want to join up with them unless I know there's a good reason to.

[Jeran]

Isn't the question for you really why not Rose?  You seem to be digging your heels in hard for no adequately explained reason.

[mmeeshal]

I am not going to vote her for one reason:

 

You and Hybrid REALLY want her lynched.  WHY?

 

I'm not going along with you guys when I don't know why you have insisted on her death for 2 days straight.

[Guest dragonsworn1991]

Jeran, the logical standpoint is that if you want someone to vote for someone you want them to and they decline than you should switch to their standpoint so you can receive the lynch you so desire.

Isn't getting a lynch a good reason?

[Guest dragonsworn1991]

It is for the rite reasons. Whenever you garner votes just for a lynch, that is when the bad and rash decisions are made.

 

It is always best to vote on the logic that appeases your own mind. In the end your gut is your best ally, unless you are like me and have the best shaky alliance ever.  ;)

Isn't getting a lynch a good reason?

Yes, it is.  But Jeran on Day 1 started with a vote for her, and that's where his vote has been ever since.  Hybrid has been after her too.  They couldn't cry "bandwagon for a lynch" when there weren't even enough people voting for her to be a bandwagon yet.

That's the issue.  Now, with a deadline looming, they can say "Hey, this is all in the interest of a lynch guys.  Deadline's coming up."  But without it, what's their real reasoning?

 

It just seems too planned, or pointed, to me.  Like they might be working together, or something.  It just doesn't feel right.

 

 

Pete- And if your gut is shaky too, then you have the best of both worlds. :P

[Hybrid]

WHY?

Why not?  :D

 

But seriously, here is the Hybrid logic that leads to me advocating mnwhiterose's lynch.  I don't want to vote for anyone who has voted with me (yet).  And mnwhiterose has been in the majority practically the entire game.  The only other option is Lia, and Lia is voting for mnwhiterose.

 

For another thing, I believe that there are several factions consisting of children and parents.  The children are essentially solo winners and the parents are essentially symps for the solo winners.  There may of course be additional roles too, but that seems to be the basic setup.  By checking out who is loyally defending whom, we can try to figure out who the parents are and who the children are.  The parents are a threat to no one.  The children are the ones who have to die for any other child factions to win the game.

 

So, who is defending whom?  *looks at mmeeshal and mnwhiterose*

[Guest dragonsworn1991]

Hate to cause a WIFOM situation here, but me and mn and meesh are all siding together with pretty much the same logic.

 

If you are correct than each team would be a team of two, and here is three people on he same page. Is one of us a child, parent, or something more?

 

Why are you so set on casting stones? Are you a child trying to cover yourself by laying the set up out so neatly?

 

and with that you are officially under a FOS hybrid.

[Guest dragonsworn1991]

Also the principal of mafia is to root out the mafia by suspicious behavior.

 

Some might not consider it to e so, but it is also a game of trust. If I were to reveal as Willy Wonka then either everyone could believe me or not. They would have to trust me or trust that I can not be trusted.

 

In the scenario you laid out, I could be a child, you could, meesh could or even mn. But what if one or all wasn't? Do you trust your gut enough to lynch a random person.

 

In a math equation 2 x 7 +8=22 But if you replace just one of those numbers with an unknown other than the 22 than the possibilities are endless and all correct.

 

Just like reasons and lynchings in this game, they are more finite than infinite but still everyone is out for themselves or the person they are linked to. Which since Hybrid and Jeran are adamantly like minded and pushy that leads me to believe one of you are linked.

 

I ask all of the players to consider the prior *Points up* and the post *Points down*

 

I could be totally off based, but it all comes down to Do you trust me and the logic I presented?

 

or

Do you trust a variable to this game that has no bearing on you, other than being an obstacle to remove later?

 

[Guest dragonsworn1991]

The initial equation I meant to type is 2 x 7 + 8 = ??? with the answer being 22 but if you changed one variable to an unknown the possibilities are infinite and all correct.

 

Total side track but I am addicted to this mafia game.

 

Thorum I am really appreciating the setup, it is well done.

[mmeeshal]

Kiss-up. :P :-*

 

 

But, I think it's great.  I haven't played enough Mafia games to truly appreciate this one, but I know it's going to continue to be mentally invigorating.

 

That's what I love most about Mafia.

[Liathiana]

Thank you for insulting me. 

 

...

 

I'm frankly startled at how venemous you're being.  What reason do you have for using inflammatory phrases like "trying to sit on some high horse" and "lame excuse?"  Honestly, I never insulted you, and I don't know why they had to be brought in.

 

I though mafia was supposed to be fun.

 

I'm second-guessing that notion at this point, in my 3rd mafia game ever.

 

I was hardly being venomous :P All I"m hearing is wah wah wah at this point. Trying to get sympathy so we won't vote Rose? Well I"ll use the same logic you use against Jeran and Hybrid, I'm gonna vote Rose and see how that plays out ^^

 

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

 

By the way, you are right about one thing, Mafia is supposed to be fun. Not a spamming topic where nothing ever gets accomplished and we can't really play :P

[mmeeshal]

Well, you do have a point about the spamminess.  I think people are at least trying to keep it relevant.  Some (like myself, I do admit) are struggling a bit.

 

I guess we'll see what happens at the deadline; I'll see when I wake up.

 

I'm not changing my vote. :)

[Thorum]

5 new pages?

 

I'm at work, guys :D

 

We'll see how far I get

[Thorum]

So few votes?

 

11 players alive, 6 needed for a lynch

whiterose (5): Hybrid, jeran, spirit, darkjustice, liath

Dark Justice (2): Ain, bligblog

Liath (3): dsworn, mmeesh, whiterose

Jeran (1): talya

[Talya]

*jumps oin quick*

 

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

 

Had some pages of interesting reading to do *nods*

[Thorum]

Violet couldn't resist. She HAD to try chewing one of those turtle marbles.

 

Her mother tried to warn her because they were so hard, but she wouldn't listen. Her teeth got stuck on the marbles.

 

No problem, you'd think. She would pull through just.

 

But no. A turtle with a toothache was too jealous of the beautiful marble in Violet's mouth, and jumped in it.

 

He mother tried everything to get it out, but in the end she had to call the ambulance.

 

That certainly was the end of Violet Beauregarde, aka mnwhiterose, and her mother, aka Ain.

Golden ticket and chocolates in following posts.

[mmeeshal]

:o

 

I did NOT see THAT coming.

 

Sorry for digging my heels in so hard; I never once imagined that you guys would be right about Rose. :-\

 

Can't wait for the chocolate counts!  And the Golden Ticket!  (not that I'm saying I'll get it, just that I can't wait for it to be announced!

[mmeeshal]
