Welcome to Brighton (Mafia game)

As a warning I have a paper I need to finish by midnight, so worst case scenario I'm not available until after Midnight EST. Sorry about this, but after that I'll have very few assignments and most of them are nearly finished for the rest of this semester so college work shouldn't hinder me much past today.
 
I'll think about it. I've contacted @Cakestepid as a possible replacement, since he did sign up in the first place. At the very least, if I cannot arrange a replacement by night 2, I'm modkilling regardless of how I feel about it.
Modkilling accelerates the game and discourages this kind of behavior. There were realistic warnings of the kind of commitment Mafia requires early in the thread. If we want those warnings to have any teeth, the offending party needs to get modkilled.

Quiting a game of Mafia is, in essence, publicly stating your intent to break the rules by not participating any more. Those rules are punishable by modkill.
 
Yes. Mod kill and can we please have at least a two day ban for leaving a game early? I am totally understanding of mental health issues and really don't like ragging on people for things they do influenced by it but we need actual enforcement.

One of the reasons why I post so much is because I like playing the game so want to make the most of it, even though I unfortunately have some really dumb things I say sometimes.
 
This is the list of players who posted indicating that they did not know that Town are the Village People:
-atk50 (continual acting as though they didn't know Town's name)
-Bahn
-shadow shinobi (claimed that my questioning indicated that I might not know Town's name)
-LostDeviljho (possibly. He indicated he trusted me to know what Town's name was, but specifically did not say that he knew the answer, or that he thought it was obvious)

This is the list of players who posted indicating that they did know Town's name was the Village People:
-ComiTurtle,

This is the list of players who are behaving otherwise abnormally:
-Megaolix (did not attempt to get in on the discussion, but posted contentless posts to keep his count up)
-shadow shinobi ("Tpk is being pushy I don't like it")

Misc thoughts
-Riki said that he thinks Atk50, nanimani, and TPK are Town. If one of these flip Scum, then the Riki is also likely Scum.



So, moving forward, I think we should NOT lynch based on who I think behaved oddly after my D1 question. It should weigh in in the future, but should not be any kind of deciding factor.

What I think is most interesting is how Megaolix, a player who is normally very pro-Town in his behavior and posting, has done approximately nothing for this entire game.

That's suspicious. That's very suspicious.

Hmmm...

Winged Cat's reveal aside, gotta still put up the idea that it's all lies unless a Hunter is found out.

Try 'I was doing others things today.' I am paying attention on the game, but the most information we have is from someone that could still be lying.

You've been doing other things for the other four days, without posting notice or reasons, but you still had time to post comments designed to egg the me vs. Nani situation on?

Fat chance. I think you were trying to lay low, and not draw Town's attention.

We're not 24 hours in this new day yet and I never have much to go on on Day 1s. You're overthinking it.

Also, I'm dubious about Winged Cat without further evidence.

heh, hope it doesn't happen to have one of my thoughts of innocense being scum, but not worried if it does.
 
-LostDeviljho (possibly. He indicated he trusted me to know what Town's name was, but specifically did not say that he knew the answer, or that he thought it was obvious)
Did I not? Huh, could've sworn... But yeah, I knew what you meant when you asked.
 
So far, my main issue is this: How can the supposed Hunter vs Wizards conflict get resolved anyway?

Killing? Adding 3 factions with killing powers in a 15-players game is just... weird to me. Something smells about this.
 
...No, scratch that. The more I think about it, the more I think bullshit. Winged Cat JUST theorized a 'Hunter faction'. And he just happen to be a survivor that say miller to any investigator, but with a kill power?

Bullshit.

I mean, there's a reason I haven't taken my vote off Winged Cat, y'know. Not sure I trust him.
Not actively suspicious enough to try and shift focus back at him right now, but I don't believe him enough to remove my vote either.

Frankly, survivor are not town so even if he's telling the truth? Town lose nothing.

Frankly, I want to lynch Winged Cat today. I don't particuraly find his scenario that believable, find his personal claim suspect because of more than his miller claim (having a survivor know the whole setup and have a oneshot kill power seems like poor balance and I'd like to trust Terrabrand more than that), and frankly why did he reveal this early? He wasn't under any particular pressure and having more revealed in a day or two would make his reveal more believable.

If we lynch him we can see his alignment, so we can confirm or debunk his information, which is incredibly useful. If he was telling the truth, at least he wasn't town.

This is the list of players who posted indicating that they did not know that Town are the Village People:

If you want to be thorough, add me to that list. I said I did not know the names or colors of the factions (except the Wizards' thanks to TMR's death, and of course my own; I suspect no player other than me knows my faction color, so I shall not reveal it at this time).

Also, I'm dubious about Winged Cat without further evidence.

I have offered that one-shot night kill as confirmation. It's the only hard evidence I can offer (like I said, investigate me and you'll find whatever faction is your enemy), but if Town wants it (and can agree on who & when)...

So far, my main issue is this: How can the supposed Hunter vs Wizards conflict get resolved anyway?

Killing? Adding 3 factions with killing powers in a 15-players game is just... weird to me. Something smells about this.

One of hunters or wizards dies off. The other one wins if they survive to see town vs. cult get resolved (or, perhaps, kill off the other faction after one or both of town or cult is eliminated). Simple lack of lynch immunity gives a path for this to happen.

That said, suddenly putting the pressure on me out of nowhere in response to someone calling you sus, rather than offering evidence of your own innocence?

Oh, I certainly could offer my own role, but maybe not yet. It's also part of the reason I call what you offered bullshit too.

-atk50 (continual acting as though they didn't know Town's name)

My guy I dropped two hints towards that that nobody seemed to understand. The snowing in of the mountain pass prevents our growth (it states that nobody is getting in or out), and I wouldn't speak of certain things (Because an upstanding member of the village people would never speak of magic.) On further reflection, those were too vague, but it doesn't stop the fact that I did know.
 
frankly why did he reveal this early? He wasn't under any particular pressure

Someone had already voted for me, so I knew I was about to be under pressure. And, frankly, I expected that I would be under pressure D2 anyway - that's how these games go.

Look up what happened to me in TPK's game. I was day-vigged just for trying to reason out what was going on. That's about what I've come to expect here now.

At the very least, would you mind asking me who to kill, and giving me a chance to provide that evidence, before lynching me? If most of town can agree, I'll do it.
 
I temporarily have this open, but why should we continue to put pressure on Winged Cat at this moment when they have just become the easier fall back lynch at the end of the day if we are no longer satisfied with a target?

Winged Cat has made a major claim and its quite early enough in this game that we can move pressure around and see how people react to said pressure and only if we don't find something worthwhile well Winged Cat is sent to the gallows.

Doesn't overtly matter if you believe or disbelieve Winged Cat's claim, they've forced themselves into this position and are now stuck in it. Lets try and use the day to find information and question people.
 
@Bahn , @AlphaDelta , and @Joebobjoe have only posted once each, though.
Excuse me, twice during this day phase even before this post. Rude! Do yo research. :V

I do think we should take the remaining time to go through our options as Comi has said. I'm personally waiting on to see if shadow shinobi will be forthcoming with any insight or if they're keen on playing mum.

Winged Cat as a backup lynch to confirm his story I can sort of understand, but I'm already keen on believing him, seems too complex/elaborate for any sort of ruse this early on.
Although, by his own admission, he's not town. Plus his win-con is the most flexible as a survivor, meaning he has an incentive to 'play the field' I guess you could say. Too much of a wild card.
In short, my reasoning for keeping Winged Cat as a back up lynch is more about the volatility of his allegiance.

Pff. Wizards vs. hunters is one thing, but town vs. cult - I'm more likely to win the faster this goes down. Less chance of someone random-killing me, less chance of someone successfully wasting one of town's lynches on me. Also, who did I say gets to tell me who to kill?

(Granted, that may just be a ploy to delay my gallows to at least D3, assuming there's consensus on who I should kill N2. But then you'd have proof of my claim.)
