Mafia: The Mob is Recruiting [Game Finished]

[Millit_the_Frail]

Oh, and I encourage CapnPitt to spill the beans on any night activities, if applicable. At least, do so before 11AM. It looks like death is almost inevitable, unfortunately.

What, exactly, didn’t ring true about my FOS? I was making note of behavior that, to me, wasn’t exactly consistent with what I imagine a Townie to act. It’s by no means a vote for scum, just a note, and a request of more information from you. Perhaps FOS was a bit strong? I still wanted to know what was going on.

No, I understand. I just got mixed up on who I was talking about previously. I was in bed, three-quarters asleep, when I posted last night, and realized I was an idiot this morning. My reaction to you was not even strong enough for me to FoS you or anything. It only came up at this point because I needed to clarify my stupidity. I think my reaction to you was based on the fact that I was the target of your FoS, and I don’t consider that a valid reason to be suspicious of anyone at this point. I posted last night to be sure I got my vote changed in time, but I didn’t want to do it absent a reason, 'cause I think that’s a scumtell.

@Blaster Master

You lay a pretty looking scenario for scum well, but it really doesn’t mean anything without being compared to the motivation if he’s NOT scum. We CANNOT get stuck in a trap where we’re only examining one side of the issue. IOW, that’s a fine scum plan, but what if he IS a priest, is the motivation there for his behavior? I think it is, as I laid out in previous posts.

Look at it this way, if he’s the Boss, then the Detective can investigate him and pretty safely trade his death for the Boss tomorrow… we’d have a maximum of TWO scum left, besides the boss, with all of our power roles out of 20 people. IOW, if he’s the Boss, by claiming Priest, he’s handed us the game. OTOH, if he’s a recruit, he can wait, any investigation of him can sit by until it’s needed to be revealed or he makes another mistake. We can ALWAYS kill him another Day if more evidence comes to forefront. IOW, even if we think he’s likely scum, unless we think he’s the boss (which he almost certainly is not), weighed against the possibility that he’s a still somewhat useful power role, he’s not worth lynching at this point, the risk is not worth the reward.

I’m sorry Blaster I just don’t believe him. He lied about using different gender pronouns in the game he moderated. He claimed way to early. He never responded to my post 455 in which I outlined some of my questions about him. I’m voting for the one I find most scummy. I just don’t get that scummy a vibe from either Manocchio or CaptPit.

[Blaster_Master]

Sigh… we have 45 minutes, and it looks like the CapnPitt lynch is done, and above Pleo, so I’ll put my vote back on someone I think is scummy. For the fly by votes without justification. I’ve not noticed him otherwise, so he could be laying low and jumping on bandwagons. I’ll spend more time on him Tomorrow. I’m still leary of Hazel too, btw. Oh, and Hockey Monkey is third on my suspicion list… just 'cause.

Unvote Menocchio

Vote HotFlyingWok

[chrisk]

I’m feeling a little nervous about helping to start the CapnPitt lynch train at this point - it might well be a big mistake, but I’m still even less certain about lynching Men or Pleo at this point. And switching my vote again at this stage to someone who’s unlikely to get noosed at this point doesn’t seem like it’ll accompish much.

So, Pitt, sorry if you aren’t scum, but I’m standing pat.

Ah, thanks for clearing it at least. Nearing the end of the day, I don’t want to vote for either of the popular choices; neither seems to be the right move. I’ll continue then with a vote on a person I FOS’ed before, and

Vote Menocchio

[CapnPitt]

I’m the Boss

[MHaye]

**Fluiddruid :

The list of people who’ve voted for Pleo is only six players long, not 7.

The total number of all votes cast plus nonvoting players is 24 out of 23 remaining.**.

Even if the Capn is a new player who’s made a new-player mistake, removing my vote jeopardises Pleoo, and for reasons covered amply in the past few posts I’m not going to do that.

Err, is this a silly way of saying “FINE! Vote for me?” Or is this a confession?

[Hal_Briston]

@Koldanar

Maybe he’s actually Springsteen?

[Darth_Sensitive]

I don’t think CapnPitt is scum. I get a ‘pressured and defensive’ town vibe off him. I’ve felt the exact same thing on other boards.

And Pleonast goes and advises the godfather on the last page and nobody notices.

[Darth_Sensitive]

NETA - I think CP is taking his ball and going home. Not a confession.

[Millit_the_Frail]

@Koldanar

If the Captain is a power role, then it would be very anti-town of him to do this instead of giving us some info. (Sorry if I’m hung up on this info thing…it’s a side effect of my being pretty poor at grasping the subtextual stuff.) So he’s either scum or vanilla. Doesn’t matter, at this point. We’ll know in 15 minutes.

[Millit_the_Frail]

@Hal Briston

Maybe he’s actually Springsteen?

Baby, he was born to run.

He’s just dancing in the dark.

It’s a town full of losers, and he’s pulling out of here to win.

No…scratch that last one.

[HazelNutCoffee]

Wow, what a crazy few hours.

I am so not feeling the CapnPitt lynch, but if we must lynch Town I’d rather lynch a vanilla Townie than a potential Doctor, I suppose. It still sucks.

[Hawkeyeop]

@Hal Briston

Maybe he’s actually Springsteen?

That was my first thought.

[NAF1138]

@CapnPitt

NAF please just remember your words “classic scum tell.” And remember in future games that sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

Hey man, I am surprised as you that anyone is actually listening to me. That almost never happens in these games.

On the other hand…it was a scum tell. Scum tells aren’t alway accurate, but sometimes this early in the game, and with new players especially, they frequently are. Also this early in the game we don’t have much else to go on.

Does it suck to be the first person lynched? Yup. But it has to be someone. And right now you look like the most likely to be scum to me.
