What are you jamming to?

metal fingers

shiiit this is cool. i love this sort of music but i apparently suck at finding it, so this lead is greatly appreciated!


you may recognize this tune from: numerous tv commercials!
but despite its frequent use/abuse i think it is a pretty, uh, "sick beat"
or whatever the proper terminology is i don't speak hip-hop get off my back MAN


yeah nataly dawn <3

Mafia?

yeah, well done gang! double kudos to jericho for his leadership and for 'clearing' me, and to lwg for having the courage to come out and finger yds. i am not the best judge but i think both of you played pretty well!

further shouts to ym, our continued same-sidedness has imbued me with a sense of trust and camaraderie for you that i really appreciate, despite the fact that, one of these days, it is going to severely bone me

and to geodude, whose survival beyond the first lynch is an accomplishment in itself

and to rhuan for hosting what turned out to be a pretty fun game, despite being a little unclear and imbalanced! ilu man

and to whoever's running the next game, you can totally count me in. i'd like to give hosting a shot too, but not until jericho and geodude run their games. just getting that out there early since there seems to be a queue forming!

Mafia?

oh, ninja'd.

okay, if we're all on the same page then i nominate rabitz LET'S DO THIS SHIT

Mafia?

i'm still confused as to why jericho protected me in the first place as he had no way of knowing my alignment. as far as i understand, there's no solid reason why i shouldn't still be on everybody's suspect list.

Mafia?

i'm also inclined toward rabitz since he follows the MO i described closer than any of the rest of us. he doesn't fit the bill as closely as yds, but he does share the record of not contributing anything to the witch hunt, despite posting relatively frequently. not the soundest reasoning, i know, but if history is any indication, the mafia usually rank among the least progressive players.

(in-progress update: i also like how he tries to justify everything ym said about him. looks like somebody feels cornered!)

also if we do mislynch tonight, there's still a chance, at least, that the doctor (if he exists) can protect the night's target, provided he doesn't get roleblocked as well... and provided he wasn't the target of our lynch. so, y'know - at least there's some hope.

Mafia?

i am content to vote down yds since i've been suspicious of her for a while. her style of posting is consistent with numerous mafia MOs from previous games: neither conspicuously quiet nor radically vocal, posting without contributing much in the way of thought or strategy, so as to avoid drawing attention to herself...

seeing as lwg's claim aligns with my instinct and i don't see any more reliable alternatives, i am going to take the risk and tentatively nominate yds

Mafia?

isn't not lynching not an option, though? i thought we had to lynch someone in order for the day to end.

since that's the case, then unless the cop has a lead for us, we should try to clear as many names as possible to maximize the odds of a favorable lynch. if the brothers and the cop come out, that's three names we can trust (provided we decide to trust the cop), and four if the cop names us an innocent. from there we can look at the remaining (hopefully three) names and just go from there.

first things first, though, i agree that the scripter should reveal himself. i'm reasonably certain that a mafioso won't try to impersonate him since the real scripter can always counter-claim, which means, like the example with the brothers i described earlier, that one of the claimants must be scum, which puts us in a good position when lynchtime comes around.

i'll save my instinctive finger-pointing for the time being, but i do have my doubts about one or two folks...

Mafia?

(i'm pretty certain that i edited it before the fifth vote was cast, but uh regardless
i will make sure not to do it again!)

(edit: whoops)

wait fuck

Mafia?

oh god i didn't even realize we had started

okay let me get caught up


edit: okay, so it's day 1 with no information and nothing to go on. rather than rushing to make a lynch, maybe we should use this plan to discuss short- and long-term strategy before we start down a path we can't retrace. some plans are best enacted immediately as if we wait too long we may lose a key player in the meantime,

like in the last game, i still think it's wise for the planners (if we actually have them) to out themselves so that we have two names we can trust. the consequences of this move can only be beneficial: by knowing the planners we'll have two names we can trust to give objective advice free of ulterior motives, and two names we can safely cross off the suspect list.

one point that was brought up in the salem witch trial game was that the mafia could easily impersonate the brothers in order to gain safety from lynching, but this was dismissed as a non-issue. in fact, i think we concluded that it would be a bad move for the dark side since the real brothers/planners could simply counter-claim, and then since two of the four claimants are guaranteed scum we'd have a fifty-fifty shot of wiping them out; at worst we'd lynch two bad guys in three days.

so i'm pretty sure that there's no downside to this course of action, but if anyone sees one, please speak up. and do it fast, because if one of the planners dies while we're goofing off, there's no way to confirm the other. and that would be lousy.

also, still waiting for the answers to jericho's questions.

Mafia?

can we lynch geodude night 1 again that was terrific

(also count me in)
