I fucking confirm.

Taking this post from the confirmation thread into account, I hereby start off the day by voting Salmoneous. Only an eeeeevil Mafia member would use such language.

It is really early in the day. Asking for a good discussion and sensible voting right now would be like asking a 4 year old to ride a bike.
It will eventually happen, but not from the start.
Anyhow, I don't think salmoneous said fuck for any particular reason.

Don't start that "he used a bad word, he is mean!" crap.
This leads me to think you might be the mafia. You are the first to vote and you can't come up with a good reason to vote either. Typical mafia move! And prolly the next person to vote will also vote for me so that person is a mafia and will help you vote me out, starting a chain reaction so everyone will vote on me.

Not really. Random voting is pretty common in early D1. So is voting for crappy reasons. It doesn't make you mafia.

Why are you so afraid of a bandwagon? This entire statement is pure speculation, and it doesn't even seem very likely to me.
Nobody is going  to seriously vote for you for saying fuck, so why are you so afraid we will?

Fos: salmoneous, for overreacting to a vote.

Very assured language for this early. Besides it isn't even true.

This is kinda weird. It's irrational.

I know it's a good way to start day 1, but please try to come up with something less ridicolous.

FOS: Razzorman
Salmoneous didn't overreact very much IMO. Also, he is like that, and have always been. If you think he is suspicious for defending himself from a vote (that also had a bad reason) I think you are the one who is suspicious.

Also, before you start flaming: Yes, this was kind of an overspeculation thingy, but just to get a discussion going.

We can't ignore him just because of that. If anyone is behaving strangely, we should point it out, regardless of who said it.

I don't. I think he is suspicious for being paranoid and irrational.

I don't. I think he is suspicious for being paranoid and irrational.

Salmoneous is always paranoid and irrational. He is also random and straight-forward.
He says what is on his mind. He often ignores people, and don't care about what they think. And he is proud of it.
That's why I like him so much. He is a true Spr?nkelD?nkel Knight.

Yes, well done; but this defense doesn't back up his innocence in the least.
The word 'always' in that first sentence hints to an attempt at defending Salmoneous on the grounds that this is his default behaviour.
I won't expand on this weird post until LL says if he actually is defending Salmoneous on any grounds.

Post by: LimeLemon on September 10, 2009, 07:21:26
I'm kinda defending Salmoneous, yes.
Look at the previous mafia games. He have been random and appeared scummy to most people. And got lynched. And he turned out to be townie most of the time.
I'm not saying he is townie because he was in most other games, but that he behaves the same no matter his role. If you try to get something out of him, you are wasting your time.
Title: Re: Mafia 6 - Day 1
Post by: Lunar_Tick on September 11, 2009, 17:33:53

[...]
So let me get this clear: Do you think there is a greater than normal chance that Salmoneous is town in this game? Are you defending the notion that we shouldn't lynch him, attacking the notion that we should, neither or both?

If you try to get something out of him, you are wasting your time.
Which is an adequately good reason to lynch him.

Your FoS on Razzorman also is dubious. You dole out a FoS for much less reason than Razzorman did.
Although this is a subjective statement, I think it can be seen that Salmoneous post (his reaction to the vote on himself) was an overreaction and not a defense. He resorted to exclamation marks, demagoguery and absolute statements which constitute overreacting and not reasoned defending.
The statement 'Salmoneous always behaves like this' has value only if the said typical behaviour was suspicious, in which case you could have a thing about it. If said typical behaviour is just being standoffish in D1 discussions, then it means just that. And that is a reason to go for a lynch.

Limelemon has left two questions by Budja unanswered.
Anyway.

If you have something better to base your vote/FoS off of, I hope you brought enough for the rest of the class do enlighten me.
This mindset for placing votes is questionable.
Does one place one's vote on the person who is most suspicious at the time and wait passively for more information to materialise, and when that time comes (if it does) just vote-hop?
Obviously, I'm taking that little stump and the beginning of the graph and projecting it way too long, but you know, it felt like it needed pointing out.


@ Salmonaeous, do you really think zetta is mafia?

Not wanting to sound like a mouthpiece for Salmoneous as I do, had he wanted to be as serious about his accusations as he seems, Salmoneous would have voted for Zetta already.
Title: Re: Mafia 6 - Day 1
Post by: Dataflashsabot on September 11, 2009, 17:46:54
As LimeLemon points out, Salmoneous seems to always behave this way regardless of alignment, but as you point out, that impenetrableness/unhelpfulness may be a good reason to lynch. I dunno. I'm holding off on a vote or even FOS for now, there's very little to go on.

Questionable? Certainly! This is still day one. I was primarily just trying to get discussion started.

That being said, the way he's reacted to the vote combined with the logs of past games has only made me more sure of my vote. I'm positive* that I'm onto something now.

*For extremely small values of positive.

You've answered your own question. His behavior makes me more sure that my vote is a good one this early on. If it's his policy to be a ⑨ (http://touhou.wikia.com/wiki/Cirno), then that deserves a vote, regardless of whether or not he's mafia.

OK, sorry guys for being inactive, but I'll try to make that up with a (wall)? of text.

Zetta starts off with a random vote, nothing wrong with that.

Next Salmoneous answers with this:
Quote
Don't start that "he used a bad word, he is mean!" crap.
This leads me to think you might be the mafia. You are the first to vote and you can't come up with a good reason to vote either. Typical mafia move! And prolly the next person to vote will also vote for me so that person is a mafia and will help you vote me out, starting a chain reaction so everyone will vote on me.
I can't exactly tell if this is typical or not. Salmoneous usually sits in the background until someone votes him, and an early vote probably will lead to some interesting activity.

Suspicion shifts over to Zetta and Salmoneous. I can't see how you see Zetta suspicious at this point, seeing as this is the first mafia game he has played on the forum and having no other games to base him off of. First votes are not suspicious at all, and usually promote discussion.

Salmoneous however seems overreactive and convinced that Zetta is Mafia. Could this be a strategy? Last game the mafia decided to rat one another out to avoid suspicion. Most of the discussion builds from there; nothing new really pops up.

I say FOS: Salmoneous.

Bussing is always possible but shouldn't be expected in every attack. Mafia do prefer not to attack each other too much.

@Shawn, so what about Limelemon. He also finds Zetta suspicious as well as Shawnachu. What do you think of him?

Why no posting Lunar? You would have normally have posted a zillion text walls by now :P.

Post by: Bored2death on September 15, 2009, 05:15:51

My thoughts so far:
Zetta: While not the best reason to vote and get the day started, I congratulate you on finding SOMETHING to vote off. Not much else to say, yet, although it'd be nice to hear your thoughts again.
Lunar: Where art thou? Like Budja said, this really is different from your normal playstyle.
Budja: Thanks for making me take part in the game again. I needed that. I've kinda been having some rather personal stuff going on, and so I haven't been able to post as much.
Salmoneous: What is so different this time? Are you trying to actually play this time after last time, when you admitted you didn't even know the game had started? Or is there some other reason?
Razz: nothing wrong with voting inactives, but be careful to not start a bandwagon and kill those whose normal playstyle just isn't active.
LimeLemon: Possible reason to vote Zetta, but I'd be curious about your opinion on others in the game.
Shawnachu: Good to see you respond to a prompt, but why this game when you haven't done so in the past?
Data: not much else to say, other than what are your most recent thoughts?

Really, the mafia are doing a good job of blending in again. I don't really know who to vote at this time.

@LL: Why the Zetta vote?

I'd go for a Salmoneous lynch and then a Limelemon one. In varying degrees respectively I don't like their playstyle, I think it isn't as constructive as it could be, they're overly quiet and Salmoneous reacted very strangely in that early post. He hasn't really replied since, presumably in an attempt to let things cool down.

It would be cool if all of you could have a little lynch preference thing.

Perhaps it was a little senile of me to think that. I didn't react strongly or anything. I don't want to shut up since last game I didn't talk and I got voted out for that. Everyone thinks I am the mafia no matter what.
Probably since last time I was mafia, I won, but, I don't know.

I don't know anything so I wont draw any conclusions... like everyone else here. I will just wait now and see who gets most votes (hopefully not me) and help to vote that person out. Not that I would think that person is the mafia, you can't vote for a reason on day 1, like, there is no evidence on who is the mafia.

Well.
If LL is scum, then he is playing with his side's best interests in mind (selfishly), because he is (presumably) buddying up with a townie -- Salmoneous, or attempting to defend his fellow mafia member (which is unlikely, but I digress). In this case, LL isn't screwing up the game by being random and self destructive. If he fails in defending Salmoneous is another story entirely.

If LL is town, then he isn't playing selfishly. He is buddying up with someone of whom he has no idea of his role, and has defended Salmoneous very dubiously. Why would a townie do this? In this case, LL is screwing up the game by being random and self destructive. It's strange. It ruins the game because the order of things is exploded.

Why is the order of things important to a town victory? Think of it like this.
Let there be a certain behaviour which is: disregarding logical arguments, teaming up with people without due warrant, throwing votes around randomly and pushing lynches without really thinking. If the town behaves like that, how are we to discriminate them from the Mafia, which is forced by self preservation to behave in this manner, at times?
Title: Re: Mafia 6 - Day 1
Post by: Lunar_Tick on September 17, 2009, 18:19:55
That behaviour is not necessarily scummy and isn't a scumtell always, but it should be.
Anyway.

I can't see how you see Zetta suspicious at this point, seeing as this is the first mafia game he has played on the forum and having no other games to base him off of.
Hm. Firstly, who do you mean by 'you'? Salmon and LL?
It is hasty if we dismiss suspicion of Zetta because he or she happens to be new to the game, at least on this forum.

@Lunar, why are you setting up a chain lynch here?
What I meant was that for a D1 lynch, my first preference would be a Salmoneous lynch. My second preference would be a LL lynch.
Expanding on that, LL may be in the process of overtaking Salmoneous. Every time LL is asked a question he is evasive and doesn't say a lot.

Bored is quiet, and his usual post of writing a sentence about each player didn't really bring anything new to the discussion.

Dataflashsabot is gone?

Title: Re: Mafia 6 - Day 1
Post by: Shawnachu on September 18, 2009, 01:43:42
Okay.

First off, I said that Salmoneous seemed suspicious. I would lynch him, but since Limelemon's defensive of him, It'd be better off lynching him instead.

1. We lynch Salmoneous and he's a Mafia.
Yay! Next we go ahead and lynch Limelemon.
2. We lynch Salmoneous and he's a townie.
We lose a townie, and we still aren't sure if Limelemon is a over-defensive townie or a mafia trying to confuse us.

3. We lynch Limelemon and he's a Mafia.
Yay! Now Salmoneous gets lynched.
4. We lynch Limelemon and he's a townie.
Yes, we lose a townie, but we can guess that Salmoneous is a townie, as no one would defend someone for no reason.

Well, this is certainly interesting.

LimeLemon seems as though he's dodging rather a lot of questions. While I'm tempted to switch to him just out of spite for his vote towards me, I still think Salmoneous seems suspicious enough that I'll hold my vote for the moment. While shawnachu provides some excellent points, I can't deny the possibility that he could be Kira mafia along with Salmoneous and trying to draw attention away from his partner. Even assuming shawnachu is a townie, that sort of thinking is too close to a false dichotomy for my taste. At this point, I'm not going to change my vote, but I'm about one more dodgy post from LimeLemon away from switching.

tl;dr: no change, just posting to say I'm still here

A quick comment.

I disagree with the linking of Limelemon for his minor defence of Salmoneous.  (Thats not to say I particularly like LL's wishy-washyness). Also it is a common scum flaw to over-defend others (as you know they are innocent). I believe that mafia are also less likely to buddy here, the fear of being linked to their buddies after earlier games had lead to people doing the exact opposite (bussing).
I guess that LL and Salmon are not both scum.

unvote, vote Limelemon, wishy-washy, evasive answers and a good dose of gut feeling.

(I'll comment on more where I have time to read properly, in about 24hrs or so).

1. We lynch Salmoneous and he's a Mafia.
Yay! Next we go ahead and lynch Limelemon.
2. We lynch Salmoneous and he's a townie.
We lose a townie, and we still aren't sure if Limelemon is a over-defensive townie or a mafia trying to confuse us.
Why would we lynch LimeLemon if salmoneous turned out to be mafia? We wouldn't be sure LL is more than an over-defensive townie anyway.

3. We lynch Limelemon and he's a Mafia.
Yay! Now Salmoneous gets lynched.
4. We lynch Limelemon and he's a townie.
Yes, we lose a townie, but we can guess that Salmoneous is a townie, as no one would defend someone for no reason.
Nope. We can't guess that salmoneous is town just because LL turns out to be. LL wouldn't have any more reason to think that salmoneous is town than the rest of us, and he might unknowingly have defended a mafia player.

Shawnachu's post #51 is really weird and interesting.

First: Why so much conviction that if Limelemon or Salmoneous flips mafia, we should immediately go on and lynch the other one?

4. We lynch Limelemon and he's a townie.
Yes, we lose a townie, but we can guess that Salmoneous is a townie, as no one would defend someone for no reason.

Your argument is (and correct me if I'm wrong) that if Limelemon were town, he wouldn't possibly defend someone he didn't know to be town, therefore Salmoneous is town.

I think it has been demonstrated that Limelemon isn't even that sure about Salmoneous' role and is more pushing for neutral treatment of him, and not some kind of reactionary Zetta-style vote of him and that. His arguments, regardless of what he wanted to say with them, haven't really stood up, and he hasn't backed them up in his most recent posts.

So no, we can't assume Salmoneous is town if Limelemon is because Limelemon both couldn't know and doesn't know, at least not enough for us to 'guess that Salmoneous is a townie' as you put it. The fact that the theme of your post can be summed up by the opinion 'Salmoneous and Limelemon have the same role' seems to be counterproductive in the sense that it feeds this false dichotomy, which very well may suit the mafia down to the ground. If you do this consciously or not is a complicated matter, but it's clear you haven't really taken the time to look at other players.

First off, I said that Salmoneous seemed suspicious. I would lynch him, but since Limelemon's defensive of him, It'd be better off lynching him instead.

FOS and sceptre of quaint argumentation goes to Shawnachu.

Bored also feeds the stillness of the LL, Salmoneous (and to a lesser extent Zetta) status quo. He hasn't moved the game forward in any of his posts, and puts his vote, very dubiously, on Limelemon for reasons (asccording to Bored) previously stated. Not by him. This is not good.

Bored.

I thought LimeLemon was the most suspicious of all of them. No other reason than that.

I'm a bit suspicious of how shawnachu seems so attached to his false dichotomy, I'll admit. I'd say there's really no reason to go after Salmoneous now, no more so than anyone else at this point.

Wait. Just because I don't have much time to type up all the reasons why I had voted, my vote is suspicious? I'm not the only one. Also, is it just me, or does Zetta seem to be starting voting and fosing a lot of stuff? It seems pretty suspicious to me that he is almost trying to get bandwagons started up right away, as though it would be beneficial to him, though I guess that it could be if he was investigator, as well...
Well, right now, I have my FOS on Zetta. Also, it seems like they've got us going in circles, all pointing fingers at one another... whoever they are, they're pretty clever.

It's primarily because I'm paranoid about keeping this game active. I've seen too many good mafia games go idle halfway through.

No, we can't. For example, Lunar was the doctor last game, yet he wasn't inactive in any way. It could be one of the inactives, but it could just as well be someone else.

The only reason we are saying that is, I think, a failure to send in a role, which PP waited for and didn't get. This could be doctor, mafia roleblocker, or investigator, but not the normal mafia member because there was a kill during the night.

Sorry if that was unclear. It did seem to me like you were trying to start a bandwagon, but looking at the circumstances again, I realize you were just trying to get the discussion going again. And Razzor: I actually had so much on my mind when I was reading through this stuff I must not have noticed your question... I thought he had tried to start a bandwagon on D1, with Salmoneous, and D2, with his FOS immediately on Shawn, though I guess that I was being a bit hasty in my thoughts. As for role fishing: is it always a scum tell? Honestly, I'm just trying to find out who's mafia here, which obviously is a town sided thought... and also, Budja: what was with the agreeing with the prods?

Eh? An active town is a good town. If the town lurk, mafia can also lurk with little consequence.

Now to address a misconception, at least in my opinion. Bandwagons are not always bad/scummy. If you believe someone is scum, it is not scummy to push their wagon. If you want pressure/explanations, start a wagon. Votes are our weapon, we are fools if we do not use them and a wagon need not always go to a lynch

Odd, if you are town, your alignment is the only thing you are certain of. If you don't care, you shouldn't have chosen to play, it may just be a game but that doesn't mean you can't take it seriously.

I remember when the culture here was to place votes randomly every day, we have got over that but now we are too paranoid, unable to scumhunt strongly or go beyond a FoS.
Find a place between the two.
