Wheel of Time Mafia Game Thread

[alannalynn]

You've got a point; it just seems an odd exception.

[killuliu]

Whoa, this is getting a bit crazy when I have had enough time to check this only twice a day :D (early in the morning and late in the evening/night) But just wanted to say that I'm not going to vote anybody today unless something really tragic comes out :)

[Myndrunner]

Your vote on me for agreeing with you is noted and has more substance to its logic than most else I've read in these dozen pages of palblam. Well done Quibby, you are having me believe you are innocent.

 

Now then....lets look close at who is voting for who.....Songs has a double vote it seems on Vabram? Or is there a gray man among us unseen?

 

Vote count

 

Ed (1): bgrishinko

Vambram (2): Song

Song (2): blackhoof, Tigraine

Blackhoof (2): play3r, Mynd

Ahmoondah (1): red

Amadine (1): virtuhall

Play3r (1): nyn

TMD (1): Thorkin

Aemon (2): alannalynn, paetric

Quibby (2): Ahmoondah, David Hermes

David Hermes (1): Locke

Red (1): Aemon

Mynd (1): Quibby

 

With 37 alive, it takes 19 to lynch. Hurry up.

 

There are quite a few pairs on this, but no clear bandwagon yet. Perhaps the Darkfriends are doing their best to try and appear innocent. Well, I think at least one of them has unknowingly outed herself. I will wait to see what she says next, but she has already proven she isn't innocent.

[trench]

I disagree about Townies not wanting to get the double vote. Because if they DO get it then 1) The mafia doesn't get it, and 2) according to Song, they'll then know her alignment.

 

Unvote. Vote David. Song, I'm willing to give the benefit of the doubt right now, as I feel there are applicants better able to be judged at the moment. David started off by bandwagoning Vambran, posted spam for like 10 straight posts, made the distraction move from Song to the rhyming thing (which he had previously said had "the ring of truth to it" or something like), and then finally made that case on Quibby, which I thought was weak and flimsy.

 

Also FOS Ahmoondah who said that the Princess Bride reference by Quibby was scummy and distracting, yet it barely made any waves, while the second half of the previous page (on 40 ppp) was completely littered with useless spam.

 

Also agree with Mynd about Blackhoof, but I feel slightly stronger right now about David.

 

I must agree with Locke

David's words are a bit erradic

Some might say its fernetic

to cast out so much suspision

but for mafia it is a classic

 

 

Vote David

[Blackhoof]

i like your rhyming.

 

i had an RP character once who suffered from the taint, so had to talk in rhyme or song.

 

it was difficult, u hav my respect, man.

[trench]

Yes this rhyming is quite taxing

definetly not relaxing

Meanings get lost in the shuffle

I hope my mind does not buckel

[hotpocket2006]

Mynd have you not read any of the game at all? lol

[Locke]

We need consolidation. For now, I feel I have no better place to move my vote to, but we'll need nineteen votes on someone by, what was it? Saturday?

[Red2111]

Aemon & Aust you two are top of my list for twisting my words. i did not, and have not tried to claim Asmo is town; i'm merely stating that i think he's more likely to be a solo than mafia aligned given how his character turned out.

 

i've said this 3 times now; seems like you two really want to get rid of me for some reason? scared i might sniff you two out as scum and see through your slight of hand too easily?

 

 

 

Checking in again. This has been a crazy mess to follow. I'm just gonna have to pick a number.... VOTE AEMON

 

so your doing a random vote, 2 days away from the deadline you do a random pick a number vote. theres 12 pages of info here, are you purposefully ignoring all of that??

 

 

Besides, as the Dragon Reborn I could always just Balefire the lot of them. Problem solved.

 

 

i'm not buying this claim, and David backing you up reeks of scum. why claim the DR? there was no pressure on you. what does this gain you, other than trying to sway people to believe what your saying? why, as the DR, woudl you even want to claim it? more than liekly, the true DR has a very good power benefical to the town and would want to stay hidden. it's likely he has Callalandor and is ultra powerful in some way.

 

the best thing for him to do is stay hidden. so i'm not buying this claim at all! it sounds more like scum attemtping to draw out the the real DR.

 

 

besides, balefire?? are you serious?? you do realize that the Rand only willingly used Balefire when he was channeling the true Source and was basically "Darth Rand" any sane person would not want to use Balefire.

 

you sound more like Taim, tell me, do your little dreadlors call you Ma'Hal as well.

[hotpocket2006]

Well not defending paet exactly, but this is only his second game, and his first one is still going on. It's the Warder's one in the White Tower, and lemme just tell you that that game hasn't been the best one to learn from, so while he could still be scum, at least he's doing more than some other people who have checked in and purposely said that they aren't going to vote at all.

 

The rest of your post, Red, I totally agree with. You may be scummy McScummerson almost every game you play (which I am so jealous of) but I really liked your last post. I'm leaning more towards Aemon right now, with his reveal that makes no sense and is really out of left field, so I'll see where this goes and what he has to say about it.

 

UNVOTE, VOTE AEMON

[ThorkinBarrimore]

That was my main point. The whole post just seemed out of place and

didn't help anyting. It just further confused people.

 

I do realise now that anyone can claim it at anytime but still...very

weird timing IMO.

 

And why the reference to balefire all of a sudden? We were talking

about something else and then "Hey, I'm the Dragon Reborn and I can

kill them all." *blink* *blink* Umm..okay.

[Locke]

I'm 95% sure the Balefire thing was for style.

 

I don't think we should lynch someone for claiming to be Dragon Reborn. While I'm not sold on Aemon's reveal, I'm not gonna assume that he's lying.

[hotpocket2006]

Suffice it to say that it is well worth my while to do it today rather than wait until I'm close enough for someone to "accidentally" hammer me while I'm being pressured.

 

This just doesn't make sense. It takes 19 dang votes to lynch someone. 19?!?!?! Do we even have a deadline set yet? If we do I must've missed it. But he revealed with two votes on him!?! Really? And if he is the DR, that must be a pretty important role. I just don't get that at all. If there's a better alternative and once I find out when deadlinbe is, I might consider changing my votes, but honestly I think Aemon is full of crap. And I'm pissed he took away the temptation for me to declare myself the DR *pouts*

[trench]

tentative deadline: saturday, 8 pm est

 

It's tentative so it could change

but Saturday is in range

[Virtuhall]

I'm 95% sure the Balefire thing was for style.

I would have to agree with Locke on this one. I am very new to Mafia, first time ever actually, but I don't think him proclaiming himself now necessarily means he is skum and not a townie. Again, I am still learning everything and supposedly there could be a solo or other factions so that is possible as well. Through book 6 Rand was very powerful but not always in control of his powers since he was starting to war with Lew Therin. I wonder if that will play into whatever powers the DR has if he exist at all. I am going to wait and see but definitely watch his every post. I am going to stick with my original vote but wait and see if anything else crops up.

[Alanna]

besides, balefire?? are you serious?? you do realize that the Rand only willingly used Balefire when he was channeling the true Source and was basically "Darth Rand" any sane person would not want to use Balefire.

 

That's not true, actually. Rand used balefire A LOT, and he wasn't the only one. I'm not saying balefire isn't crazy, but. Anyhow, the balefire comment wsa intended jokingly, I think.

 

Not sure what to think of Aemon's claim. He always does something crazy like this and then I have no idea why It seems an odd move to make whether he's telling the truth or not. If he is telling the truth, I have to wonder if has some kind of protection, because revealing so early like this, well, you're relying a lot on some kind of external source of protection, like a healer, believing you and committing themselves to protecting you. And if he's lying, well, that I just don't get at all. It seems like a move that could draw huge attention to you, and probably negative attention.

[aemonkristen]

 

 

i'm thinking this as well. obviously he can't confirm it, but if items are character specific there are only two characters who a rhyming item woudl fit. Thom & Asmo. and since the timeline for this game goes through book 6 Asmo may or maynot be a bad guy; by book 6 he was dead, but he had also basically turned good due to what Lanfear had done to him.

 

 

Check the bolded part of your post, Red. You are trying to lay the groundwork for a "town" Asmodean. Also, for a WoT geek (like everyone else here) you seem to be woefully ignorant of my use of Balefire in the series. On my way to Tear I balefired Hellhounds right. I'd have to go back and check the books to see what number the events fell in (Hellhounds were in The Dragon Reborn) but I have also balefired Rahvin, Hellhounds that were attacking Matt in his apartments, defending the Stone of Tear against the invading Trollocs and Myrrdral. There are inumerable instances of my use of Balefire. That being said, in this game I do not have Balefire at my disposal, much to my regret. As to why I chose to reveal early, I ask you this: What was Rand before he proclaimed himself the Dragon Reborn?

[aemonkristen]

*posted too soon*

 

And what was he after he proclaimed?

[aemonkristen]

Sorry about the triple post. I forgot to mention that yes, my commenting on balefiring all the bad guys was just flavor for my coming out.

[David Hermes]

The Dragon Reborn?

If aemon is not telling the truth, then by diverting attention to himself, he's protecting other people. Perhaphs he's protecting the people he was accusing throughout the game, such as Red.

[Verbal32]

Well, if we lynch him, we can finally end the debate on who killed him, right?

 

 

So Wombat - how many PMs have you gotten for thief plays on Song? Imma guess about 10, hehe.

 

Good one!

 

But on a serious note, was your joke on thief plays being about 10 a joke or are you basing this estimate on something you know?

Or am I taking your post too seriously? :D

 

It was a joke, but I bet I'm not far off, hehe.

 

 

 

I backed off of Song because she was getting really upset and I hate to see anyone get upset over a game, however, in the rules it states that we are allowed to use ANY tactic so I'm kinda starting to wonder. I agree with Alanna in that Song has played mafia before and knows the consequences of each action. If she was worried about people noticing the double vote, then why did she vote 2 posts into the game? It all just seems way off to me and since she has refused to address it then I guess I won't get any answers!

 

Don't do this. Don't back off because somebody is getting upset - emo meltdowns are sometimes staged. Assume that mafia players have thick skin (they should, at least) and continue with your casing. Just a thought....feel free to ignore me.

 

 

 

If I had to say someone was acting suspicious, I'd say it is our local poet. His unique style of posting makes him someone that we like to hear from and we look forward to his posts, it is a clever tactic to keep people from voting for him. That being said, this doesn't mean he is a Darkfriend at all, could just be a smart citizen Andor looking out for himself any way he can.

 

 

This termanology kinda struck me...Nobody has referred to scum as darkfriends even though it is WoT Mafia. Maybe a term in the message from the mod?

 

Totally agree here. Freudian slip, perhaps?

Um, the Dragon Reborn? He was reborn when he was...you know....born. So he's been the DR the whole time, just not claimed. If you are insinuating that the Prophecies are part of this game, then that's a totally different beast altogether.

 

 

 

*posted too soon*

 

And what was he after he proclaimed?

 

Um, still the Dragon Reborn? See prior comment.

[David Hermes]

Also aemon could be using this as a ploy so that he can get protection during the night, and leave the doctor open for a night-kill. It's a long shot but it might be worth it. (not really in my opinion)

[aemonkristen]

Then why did he have to proclaim himself the Dragon Reborn? What purpose did it serve?

[Verbal32]

Don't discount that. Aemon has had a recent habit of trying to play like Mynd. And this is exactly something that Mynd would do.
