[Mafia game] The Realm of Phere

Oh, and I vote Phere if no consensus is forthcoming.

I have an early start in the morning, and have only a slim chance of being online at EOD, , so I’m going to shift my vote somewhere more useful :

vote Mosier

I’ve voted him before but I was on my own; I’ve already talked today about not being happy with him, and that was before he dropped his zombie act; and we may get information on possible alignment shifts with Phere raises.

I’m not sure that I’m into attacking Phere today as I mentioned earlier, so any townies who’d like to be defended by a stout soldier, PM your case to me.

I could accept a Lynch of any of the top 3 contenders, though Visorslash is still my preference: He’s the one who’s clearly playing anti-Town, IMO.

With Mosier a Zombie, and both Visor and Charlie claiming Neutral Morality, any of these three would give us some information on death reveal.

Most important, is that we decide who gets Lynched, rather than leaving it up to the will of the triple-voter. It’s almost 10 PM in my timezone now. I may move my vote to the leading bandwagon about my bedtime which, despite that I’m a night-owl, may come sooner than usual tonight.

Septimus, will you be switching to gnarlycharlie, since Visor (your current vote) is voting for Mosier?

Don’t worry too much about not being around at Day end. I’ll be here, and I’ll swap as necessary to stymie the 3-voter.

The theory being that if Visor is Scum, Mosier isn’t? I’ll just leave vote on Scum Visor then, thanks.

Since we need a 3- or 4-vote margin to stymie the triple-voter, I don’t see how you plan to do that.

Where’s Glee? And when is Normal going to move her votes? And how about the mutual admiration society: guiri and scathach ? :smiley:

EOD is at 4 AM in my timezone. If I had a double-vote I might stay awake for the excitement. Instead, I’m shutting off the computer in ten minutes or so.

What I need is a “bot” that would monitor the vote counts and send a last-minute vote while I’m asleep! :wink: (I’d not be surprised if there’s already freeware to do that, ready to download. :smack: )

You could give pizza a proxy vote of some kind, asking him to switch you to the top candidate at day end, or something like that.

I can’t do anything until I have an hour to sit down an catch up.

See, now, this is why it’s bad that Askthepizzaguy isn’t giving us EOD vote counts performed by him. We would have noticed [Mosier’s double vote – assuming he had it yesterDay – with an official vote count.

Normal, would you be willing to post that question in public, so askthepizzaguy will answer in public? Not a slight against you, but as I said, I don’t trust (nor do I think anyone else should) any words claimed to come from pizzamod that we haven’t read ourselves directly from his own posts.

How is the item vote going, btw? I think glee, IIRC, seems assured to get the teal harp. But if Tanaer wants to be a bard, I prefer the harp in her hands. What can I say, I’m a music lover and would rather hear someone talented than some knight with no apparent musical abilities. Also, Tanaer’s the only one who’s put the hurt on Phere so she deserves a reward.

Ergo, [bteal harp to Tanaer

And I look good with white, so I’ll:

white sceptre to choie

… though I don’t think anyone else has voted that for me, so it’s probably a lost cause.

Among the current vote list I see no Believerer, fubbleskag or Red Skeezix (quel surprise). The fact that Red hasn’t been NKed makes me suspect he is active somewhere, as in a scum board. I guess we’ll find out toNight.

WTF, this is possible?! What if everyone did that? That’s coward city.

You’d obviously have to answer for it if you made a habit of it. And it wouldn’t be secret: gnarly could announce it, in green, on the main board. He’s likely asleep now, though, so I wouldn’t worry about it!

Agreed that no official pizza counts hurts our ability to suss out what we need to do to control our own lynch. That’s frustrating. And if Normal is correct, and lilflower was a double voter… shouldn’t Gadarene have been lynched Day 1?

Pizza, can you shed some light on why Red Skeezix has not yet been Wrathed out of the game?

If the answer is “no,” I’m attacking Red Skeezix.

I really can’t discuss why, but I can say that if he doesn’t vote, he’s gone today.

Depends on the timing of when all the votes came in, I think, including the triple vote on Mosier. But it’s possible. It was a host error, regardless.

Pizza, can you confirm in public what you told me about lilflower and the double vote??

Yes, I can. Unfortunately, lilflowers’ double vote was not counted. By the time the error was noticed, Gadarene was already gone or on his way out. It would have been caught sooner but lilflower’s inactivity made it too easy to remain overlooked.

I will never have double-voters in any of my future games. They’re a nightmare. So I have to modconfirm the double-vote aspect at least, with my apologies.

Fair enough. Mistakes happen.

Too often. I’m not usually this sloppy of a host, but I over-reached with the game setup and I was simply bad at my job on the first round or so.

My goal at this point is to make sure the game is not irreparably broken and that all sides have a fair shot, so there’s still a game to be played that can be enjoyed and won. After that, I’ll take my lumps that I earned for bumbling round one.

Astral, if you’re around, do you have an approximate vote count? I know gnarlycharlie and Mosier are in contention; who else is? Visorslash?

I think Tanaer’s count is accurate.

5 for Mosier, 3 for gnarly.

Bah. I would rather vote for gnarly. I wanted to look at his day one participation before he got so busy to see if it changed my opinion any, and it doesn’t – he questioned the wagon on Visorslash, voted SilverJan for OMGUS voting VS when she likes to OMGUS herself, unvoted when SJ clarified the reason for her vote was not OMGUS (but her reason for keeping it there was), then finally wound up on the Mosier bandwagon (saying he thought Septimus was scummier but Mosier might actually be lynched – which is fine, but he never followed up I don’t think). Anyway, the not-quite-right feeling persists.

OK, so what’s the logic for leaving gnarly alive and will he be vigged if he’s not lynched?

BTW I also count 3 for Visorslash.
