I like filler i guess you could say, i don't take this or myself too seriously and its just a fun game. Sure you can try to win i am just here to try it out and have a good time. Also who doesn't like a bit of banter? :) (Probably gonna say this is filler too eh?)


I uh don't like this line but it's probably because he stole my banter

vote ThirdAug

To summarize, Izzy, if the votes are split between 3 or 4 people at the end of the day, and there's no clear tunnel, the mafia can swing 1 or 2 votes onto a non-mafia without giving themselves away.. because town will be flip flopping a lot too at that point.

izzy, part of the reason I'm tunneling hard is that if we approach the end of the day without a unified idea of who's being lynched, it's pretty much confirmed that mafia won't be lynched.

The reason: mafia can coordinate, we can't. I know I'm town so I know the person I'm tunneling has a chance to be mafia (and in the case of ThirdAug a pretty good chance) but if we leave it up to a group decision everyone will have their own idea and the only unified part of the town will be the mafia doing juuuust enough coordinating to make sure mafia doesn't get lynched.

I've played a lot of forum mafia and this happens pretty much every time on day 1 if there's not a town consensus before the end of day.

D1 is almost over right? Because of timezones I probably won't be around for the end of the day

Vote: ThirdAug

This seems like a safe lynch considering the number of reads I've got, worst case scenario is probably that it flips town and then I get lynched tomorrow and then the rest of the town can probably figure it out unless the best players rolled mafia. Unless the town are scummy and the scum are towny we are A-OK!

i don't understand why people want to lynch gerry. i get the thirdaug lynch but arcbell you seem to be tunneling REAL hard.

also in the last game it was practically over by this page lol

If ThirdAug is mafia, I expect him to do exactly what he's doing: comes online, tries to discredit me with a few weak posts, gets trustrated, leaves.

If ThirdAug were mafia I think he'd try harder to try to trick Arcbell to beat him. So I think that ISPing might be his town play. Maybe.


No I don't think so m8

I deleted my own post by misclick.. lemmie retype it

I command everyone who's thinking "lynching ThirdAug isn't a bad idea" which is basically everyone in the game to change their vote to ThirdAug and concede that your own personal idea for who should be lynched probably isn't going to go through if it's mafia against mafia opposition today. A ThirdAug lynch will though because he's so bad even mafia can't save him.

Today is ThirdAug day. You won't get Gerry lynched today against mafia opposition, but we may be able to get ThirdAug lynched today against mafia opposition.

Okay, so today we're lynching ThirdAug.

Reasons:
- ISP
- Useless contributions
- ThirdAug
- For some reason no one really objects to lynching him but it's difficult for it to gain traction, which usually happens when it's mafia.

id actually be okay with lynching yoyo today now if anyone else would follow

although i still prefer thirdaug


I'm okay with either except I prefer yoyo for the reasons i stated and the posts I quoted.

Also, it's exactly the repetition in your posts that makes you appear less and less town.

Consider page 50, Mori spent at least 2 minutes quoting one of my lines and posting "... The more I read him, the more I want him lynched". The previous line that she quoted for a different post was very close to my one, so it's not as though Mori was trawling through pages to find something else to comment on. The 2+ minutes spent typing what she did was likely spent thinking about the best and most manipulative way to try to push on me, rather than just typing that she didn't like the line and moving on.


Or maybe I was reading everyone's posts one by one and not just yours? Also, I explained just how and why you are scummy to me. It's funny how you thought I was town and you backpedaled after you saw you can't pocket me, almost like you're trying to survive a lynch rather than trying to find mafia.
