Princess bride mafia - Congrats to the cult!!!!

[Verbal32]

My explanation is forthcoming.  I don't understand why it hasn't happened yet.....but give me a little time.  It will happen today.

[Alanna]

I'm sorry, I have been really busy (last week was my final week of college ever, so packing up/writing term papers/moving) and I was in four other games. I had actually considered dropping out of this one earlier because it was the one I was paying least attention to. At any rate, I'm only in 1 other game now, so I'll try and be more active. I will say that I am innocent, but I know just by saying that it doesn't mean you'll believe me.

 

Also, don't want to metagame on myself overly much, but I never do really post all that much in mafia games. Rey, I would think you know this, having played a lot of games with me, so I'm kind of surprised you thought me 'lurking' makes me scummy.

 

Anyway, hope you guys don't decide to lynch me.

 

I'd say Tig's power problem really is keeping her away, but that doesn't automatically rule her out as mafia. But I don't really feel super suspicious about her at this point.

 

Lavinya seems a more likely candidate to me.

[Naeann]

What is it with everyone picking MY game to consider dropping out of when they are playing 50 million? >:(

Woah chill out Nae! Where's "everyone" - most people are here  :)

[Jeran]

Reading peace's summary I'd pick Tig as the most suspicious because of the way she voted.

 

Lavinya maybe second for pushing a bit towards Verbal.

 

Alanna third...not many posts but with a reasonable explanation.

Not just you lurking, lurking in general is a good way for mafia to stay out of the way. I meant just as a general principle.

And from other games we've played, I know you as quite the devious player  ;D

[Naeann]

Meesh dropped out but is playing the game that was in signup mode while mine was going on.  Alanna said she was tempted to drop this one.  I tend to have to modkill at least one per game for lack of any posting at all. (why the 1 post per game day rule is now in all my games)

 

I'm "chill" it's just why pick my game?  Is it that boring?  That's on you all.  I only set up the games.. you gotta make them.  My PB game on MJ went for hundreds of pages.

[Reyoru]

I think the games fine personally. We've got some dangerous players, an unknown cult and everyone with a hidden agenda. Pure mafia through and through  ;D

[Torrie]

At this point I still get a bad feeling about Alanna or Verbal. Alanna just cause she has not been posting (but I don't know her game strategy that well) and Verbal because he has yet to explain this mysterious reason for not lynching him.

 

This may all change soon, though.

 

 

 

I am enjoying your game, Nae.

It's not the game I think the time of year contributes to people having a little less time. 

 

This game is actually wrapped in awesomeness.  Its actually the ONLY one teh Crusher is playing.  Right now.  *winks*

 

I will read thru some stuff at lunch and chime in.

[Alanna]

Aw, Nae, it's not that the game is boring! It's just that this one started after the other three I was in, so I was already way more involved in those (and I was mafia in one of those other ones, so I didn't want to drop out there :D). Also, to be perfectly honest, Pete's spamming was a bit annoying and confusing, but that's not your fault.

 

Anyway, I'm glad I didn't drop out because this game is getting really good! So hopefully I won't get lynched LOL.

Well, that's true. About people lurking, I mean. Still, I don't like to accuse people of being mafia just because they're lurking. Usually there are mafia that lurk, as well as mafia that are very vocal. I agree that probably someone who has been lurking here is a mafia member.

 

Torrie, you haven't been posting much either, have you? As for Verb, well, I think we'll just have to wait and see. Certainly if he never provides an explanation he's one to suspect.

[Verbal32]

Heh.  I've been looking to see who pushes me the most after I announced that I would explain today.  I didn't understand why, but now I do.

 

It appears that I was roleblocked last night.  This is actually very good news, as it helps my case of not being mafia....as there was still a NK.  Now I know that there are ways around that, so I'm only saying it "helps" my case, and not makes it.

 

But I don't have tangible proof that I'm town, due to being roleblocked.  As the RB role is usually pro-town, I'd ask that the block be lifted tonight so that I may prove my innocence.  Or not...whatever floats your boat.  But there will still be NKs, so I'd suggest another target.

 

But my suspicion is firmly planted on the couple of people who were hot to trot for me to show proof, as peace stated the other 2 names are random pulls, and I wasn't on the list for DPR.  So, why again do I need to prove myself, while others do not?  Hmmm?

[Reyoru]

Verbal what kind of a game are you playing with us here? The only reason I'm waiting to hear from you is because you said you would. Now it looks like a kid promising to do something if his parents let him off and then not doing anything. Its an almost laughable ploy.

 

Before this post you had in my mind and in actual fact the exact same chance as anyone being Mafia. Now this defensive game of wait and see - why do I have to explain anything to you stance has pinged me majorly.

 

[glow=red,3,200] verbal [/glow]

[Verbal32]

When is it good to lie as a town in mafia?  Well, when you think telling the truth will get you night killed.

 

I actually had 1 more viewing available to me and I just got word that 1 of these 3 players visited DPR last night.

 

Alanna, Lavinya, or Tigs.

 

So, one of them is mafia.  We'll need to go back and look at their game play so far.

 

I scanned the posts of these three yesterday, and here's the one that popped out to me:

 

Hmm, well, as someone else said, Verb is fighting very hard to stay alive. Could be a deserpate mafia ploy, but a lot of what he is saying make sense. Whereas Danya hasn't said anything. Vote [glow=red,2,300]Danya[/glow].

 

The vote count was already around 8-2 in favor of Danya, so this "vote" seems like a nice touch to just make it look like she's voting for Danya, who I think already had the majority by then.  In the same post, she still leaves suspicion on me, while voting with the bandwagon and thereby sacrificing a teammate.  Typical move.

 

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

 

 

And by the way, this little tidbit clinches it for me:

 

Aw, Nae, it's not that the game is boring!

Bold emphasis mine.  This post seems contrived to me.  This is my vote.

[Verbal32]

[glow=red,3,200] verbal [/glow]

 

What part of 'I was roleblocked' don't you get?  I can't prove it without showing you.

 

Laughable ploy?  Heh.  Please.

[Reyoru]

That's meaningless when you can't back it up. You were "roleblocked" and have some magical role that proves your innocent can't prove anything. Rather convenient that you were "roleblocked" just after you were going to acquit yourself.

[Reyoru]

Sorry, last sentence should read "before you were going to acquit yourself"

[Alanna]

Umm...okay. So I say I don't think you're mafia, and you suspect me? I say it could be a mafia ploy, but that I don't think it is. I don't suspect you, Verb. Anyone else could have been jumping on that bandwagon for Danya. Whatever. In another game, I wouldn't have voted, because as you said, it was unnecessary at that point. But in this game, you're at risk for getting modkilled if you don't vote, so I did. As for why I voted so late, well, I already explained that. I was in a car all weekend, driving from L.A. to Houston; I didn't get home til Monday evening. I'm not going to defend my RL stuff anymore, beacuse I can't make you believe I'm telling the truth. You can check all my other mafia games, where I wasn't here.

 

As for what else I said being contrived, well, I wasn't. That was the truth. I don't know how to make you believe me. I don't think you're scum, Verb, but you're off on me.

[peacesells]

That's meaningless when you can't back it up. You were "roleblocked" and have some magical role that proves your innocent can't prove anything. Rather convenient that you were "roleblocked" just after you were going to acquit yourself.

 

Rey it's a null tell at best.  He could be telling the truth and could be lying so you can't extrapolate anything from this.  Maybe with more info later in the game it can add up.

 

What about the 3 players I listed?  No comment on them?

[The Crusher]

I think the reason most people want an explanation from you is because you offered to give one.  We all waited and you give us nothing but a promise for tomorrow.  Role blocked?  If this is true then that would make sense that you may not be mafia but Ive heard from others that they are concerned you may be cult.  

 

So as of right now you are saying your town but can;t show us why because you where role blocked, so if we give you one more day you will show us.  Providing your not blocked again.  Sounds fishy, dolphinesque if I may.  

 

But at this point I still want to look at the three Peace gave us this time.  

[Alanna]

Honestly, Verb, I suspect Rey and Torrie the most; they're the ones really gunning for you. Torrie not as much, though I also thought her comment about me being suspicious because I haven't posted much was weird - merely because I've posted at least as much as she has.

[Reyoru]

I commented on them peace.

[peacesells]

In another game, I wouldn't have voted, because as you said, it was unnecessary at that point. But in this game, you're at risk for getting modkilled if you don't vote,  

 

Where is this stated by Nae?

 

If you don't post you are at risk..I don't see any reference to having to place a vote?  Also, there is no mod kill if a lynch vote already takes place.  That is just silly.  Logically it makes no sense as there can be a quick run and anyone who couldn't squeeze in a vote is at risk of being modkilled?  Weak reasoning there Alanna.

[peacesells]

This is your post about "them."  Not much here.

 

LOL nice one peace ;)

 

Now in my book Alanna has been lurking most and is thus making me most uneasy. Don't really know about Lavinya. Tigs had a power problem or something? Could be genuine or an excuse to cover her absence...

 

Opinions?

 

You suggest Alanna makes you the most uneasy but don't vote.  We know one of the 3 is scum yet you focus on Verbal and actually vote him?  Seems to me like to are trying to derail from the top 3 suspects for some reason and tunneling Verbal.

[WWWwombat]

I don't see any harm in giving Verbal another day when there are other scummy options.
