[Advanced] Hollywood 1940s Mafia - Game Over

[Christine]

Krak! how could YOU mess up the coding? For shame!

[Red2111]

i have to agree with an UNVOTE VOTE: AMEG

 

krak is right when he says ameg is jittery right now, and that he's pointing us towards inactives doesn't sit well with me. most times the inactives tend to be townies and soem of your more active people tend to be scum.

 

 

also, for anyone needing to color their text. if you look up at the tags above where you type your message, you'll see an A with a piant brsh under it next to the "sizes" box. this gives you a color pallet to color yout text different colors. either highlight the text you want to color or pick your color and type.

 

there is also another tag button that is labeled B. this will bold your text. I is for italics and so on.

[amegakure]

Lol just because some inactives are town dosent mean anything, and im a he...thank you... but a bunch of people maybe not on this game, but alot agree with me that inactives are worthless, the contribute nothingg to the game. And if it is town how is there absence been good, there not here communicating. There not making it easyer to take a guess at whose scum, and sorry scum also like to lay low, depending on the player. Plus I already stated it was temporary and just ment to get us forward.

 

 

As for jittery, don't know what u mean or care. Maybe it cause im beingg active and actually playing, and trying to make a case on scum...beside how jittery they seem. Wow I really want to OMGUS you but I wont....

[amegakure]

Hmmmm I just went back a bit and saw that u were the second in active we had. And the one I would have voted for nxt. So are you getting on me because ur town and didn't get in the game. Or because ur scum and got your plan busted and is mad now. Cause you sure did jump on kraks idea, and if I remember krak hasn't been around much either.....

[Sakaea]

Ok, I'm back. Just did a re-read, and nothing is really jumping at me. So I'm gonna go ahead and UNVOTE my joke vote, and I will vote again when something pops at me.

[Alanna]

I agree...partially...about inactives (I think a lot of you, especially newer players, don't always know how to distinguish between inactives and players who actively lurk), but I think it's way too early to be lynching people who are inactive. It's Day 1. A lot of people hang back early in the game to just observe and then come out and post more once things are more underway.

[Red2111]

Hmmmm I just went back a bit and saw that u were the second in active we had. And the one I would have voted for nxt. So are you getting on me because ur town and didn't get in the game.

ameg, are you really gonna try to trhow the inactive card at me when it was over the weekand and over half the players here know i don't get on during the weekands ... now it looks like your panicing tbh and reaching to boot.

 

please, by all means, try to build a case on me and claim i'm inactive and secure that lynch on yourself you've played with me loads of times and shoudl know that i'm only inactive for two reasons RL reasons or becuase it's the weekand. given this bit of meta on you, i'm glad i have my vote where it is

 

 

 

honestly, i've never been a fan of lynchigninactives. yes having dead wieght like that sucks, but the chances are greater lynching town if we pool souly from teh inacties which only works int he scums favor as far as numbers go. this is why i'm generally against it. also, you rarely have a totally inactive scum player becuase of the pressure they get from their team mates to play. a lurker scum yes, but not an inactive scum. theres a big difference between inactive and lurking btw.

[Red2111]

not to mention you can't really judge whose inacctive based on Day 1. which is another reason why this "pushon inactives" stinks to me

[amegakure]

Well I think I have played one game with you red mayb 2. So really I don't know you dont play on weekends. Nice try though, im not panicking either. Really 2 votes for a weak reason isn't that big of a deal. And voting inacives on day1 isn't that crazy I've seen other very experienced players do the same. Plus its very unlikely to get scum on first day. which is worse cause that's a town who was actively partipating

[Red2111]

well let me ask you something, since you claim we're likely to lynch a townie day 1 and claim it's better to leave the actives alone.

 

whats better for the town. lynching an inactive townie that gives us no info, or lynching an active townie that gives us info??

 

 

the active townie in this case is the best option; chances are the NK will yeild little info, so if we lynch an inactive that gives us no info we're basically stuck back at square one come Day 2.

 

also, lets not forget that your scum team is goign to be in the range of semi-really active; so lynchign an active player, while gathering us info also allows a greater chance of hitting scum.

 

 

the fact that your twisting this and still saying that we target inactives cause it's the better option makes me fling the FoWS at you even more.

[Red2111]

FoWS ... really keyboard ... wtf is that. Finger of Wide Suspicion

 

 

anyways, replace FoWS with FoS *shakes head*

[Hybrid]

Alanna's absolutely right that there is a difference between inactivity and lurking.

 

In my opinion, it's always wrong to go after an inactive. You won't get any information. You won't even get a defense from that player. Let the mod deal with it, via modkill or replacement

 

Lurking, on the other hand, is something the players should take care of. It's anti-town, and the majority of the players in this thread are guilty of it.

[Sakaea]

I agree with Hybrid. If someone signs up to play, and doesn't, let the mod deal with it. My first mafia I ever played, I was lurking cus I had no clue what to do, and damn near got myself killed cus of it, and I was town.

 

Getting info off a lynch is how you go about getting your next lynch, and so on and so forth. So by lynching an inac we get no info, and start at square one next day phase. So, VOTE AMEGAKURE for advocating what I consider to be a scum-tastic idea.

[amegakure]

wow.....inactive...lurking... i guess i didnt specify well enough. of course theres no reason to vote someone who is not play at all. but those that check in and dont say much are not helpful. And you guys can go ahead and lynch me for your day one vote, hopefully that will bring you plenty of info. seriously though it was an idea, and since no one is liking it, i will drop it.

 

 

ps. Finger of Wide Suspicon is what i thought you meant toooo!

[Alanna]

This isn't what you were saying when you were voting me, though. You were voting me because I hadn't checked in at all, or said anything at all. Now you're saying there's no reason to vote someone who's doing that.

 

I hadn't thought I'd vote you before, since it seemed like people were just jumping on the player trying to get things going, which I don't like. But now I'm seeing scummy desperation.

 

VOTE AMEGA

[Hybrid]

Hey, Wombat, what do you think of an amegakure lynch?

[amegakure]

Haha okay that's why I took my vote off you but when I die, u guys can take a look at the real scum in this game

[amegakure]

Also alaana I voted you because hybrid said you were on the boards and didn't check in so nice try with that. U said you couldn't get on which isn't true. Uu were already on and choose not to check in... but whatever im positive there's scum on this train.

[Sedai]

I'm really getting a cornered townie vibe from Ameg. He's a newer player, I'm all bout showing by example and so if we lynch him he may learn, but I believe he is town.

 

Jack's philosophy on inactives:

 

Once a train or case has been settled on a player for being inactive then they are pretty much lynch guaranteed. If they show up, their mafia teammates told them to. If they don't their apathy will walk the town into the knife the mafia is holding. So they are at a lose lose. If they post they are scum if they don't they deserve to be lynched. That's not how I think but that's the general consensus on that topic.

 

In small games lynch 'em first because they are anti town even if they have a townie pm.

 

In large games, lynch 'em midways cause coming into endgame again it makes them anti town.

[John E. Kelley]

Sorry, I see both Allana's and Amega's point of view, but the whole lurking vs. inactivity tips it back into Amega's favor imo. If you hadn't been on at all this weekend, I could definitely buy your claim Allana. But the fact that you were here, didn't stop in a just say hey or anything at all, screams lurker to me. I totally see the difference that Red spells out too, because I was on most of the weekend and saw nothing from Red at all, yet saw you around. Yes, it's Day 1, but we still need to be feeling each other out a little, yeah? But, as it stands, I'll wait to make a decision and Unvote Alanna till I get a better feel for you.

[Hybrid]

krak is right when he says ameg is jittery right now, and that he's pointing us towards inactives doesn't sit well with me. most times the inactives tend to be townies and soem of your more active people tend to be scum.

 

By the way, if Red flips scum, it's worth looking at Alanna or Lia.

[Lessa Nikia]

I just got home from work so I'm going to reread and post my thoughts afterward

[Lessa Nikia]

First I'm going to Unvote my joke vote.

 

Second, nothing is jumping out at me. I get that inactives effect the game and hurt the town but some people might not have time some days.

 

I'm not going to vote right now.

[Alanna]

Two things: now you are making it sound like I was lying about RL things. Those who were in Womby's WOT game will know this makes me really unhappy.

 

Also alaana I voted you because hybrid said you were on the boards and didn't check in so nice try with that. U said you couldn't get on which isn't true. Uu were already on and choose not to check in... but whatever im positive there's scum on this train.

 

This here. Twisting what I said. I had zero internet at home last week. I was able to get online for a few brief moments most days by going over to my aunt's house and using her internet. She lives relatively close by, but I'm not going to go live with here, or drop by for long periods of time, just so I can use her internet.

 

So, as I already said, when I was able to go to her house and use her internet, I got online to do the things I needed to do. That was pretty muchg monitoring my own mafia game over in the WT, finishing up Harry Potter Week things, and doing things for the Aiel, my group.

 

So duh, I was able to get online sometimes, I already said that. But as it was usually not for very long, no, I never did get around to posting here. I checked in on the game a couple of times, very quickly, saw that not much was going on, and chose not to post.

 

Second thing: Part of the issue here is you are taking Hybrid's view of things, which is not mine. He is telling you that you should lynch lurkers. I actually disagree. I am a lurker, that's how I choose to play, that's how I always play. I don't believe lurking always hurts the town, it depends how/why/when you're doing it.

 

So, I guess to sum it up, while I wasn't lurking on purpose last week, and don't appreciate being accused because of that, I don't usually post much early in the game. Are you saying everytime I check in on this game, I should post something? Sorry, I don't. Lynch me for it if you want, but I've played this way for two years now and it's not gonna change.

[Alanna]

BTW, that post was directed at Amega and Ishmael.
