I was evaluating the mass claim idea, not realizing that Cristi already claimed Cop. In which case, what do we have to lose, other than Cristi? Let's all claim while we still have time.

Also, hi Joppo. I was disappointed I got to live, until I realized you're playing with us, so that's cool.

OK I think I get it now. You want 3 Town Reg claims so you can narrow down who isn't Town Reg

I hope you've managed to find a scum or 2

Hi Joppo. Nice to see you here.

Much as Scenes and Laser’s input is appreciated, both of their claims are of little value by themselves. Right now it has come down to counting with fingers. Can we?

Why disappointed? You were bored with the game?


Also, anyone who cares about summarizing the game so far for Joppo? People, leave him some breathing space, it is a lot to catch up with.

My take: On D-1 Laser fake vigged Scenes. Scenes said he had just killed a vanilla. Laser said he believed him. Scenes said he believed Laser to be town. Many said Laser’s behaviour was anti-town, and several voted for him. Cristigale believed both (IIRC) and disliked the ones who had voted for her Lazy, although, she put a placeholder vote on GR. Micro got a lazy lynch that nobody cared to even analyze (that was ugly, people).

On D-2, SPF continued his pursuit of Laser. lots of drama as Pooka claimed vig. He thought that he could shot Laser and Scenes could be lynched in the same game-day, thus ending the discussion that was going in circles, and moving on. However, the rules did not allow that. Then he threatened Laser, Scenes, Lift, GR. In the end he was swayed to shot Lift. Lift went down like a soldier. A vanilla town one. Laser suggested a mass claim when the end of D-2 was near, but retracted soon.

On D-3, Cristine has claimed to be the cop, but has not offered any reveals so far.

So that should summarize most of the drama going on in the last game-days. As per my personal take until the end of D-2, you can find comments there (I was there to the very end), plus a list published on D-2 with a view on the line of play for each participant in this game so far. Do not hesitate to make open questions so that people can offer you their thoughts.

Welcome to the game.

Just got up...here are all my old replies from D2...I ask for some time to catch up(will read any replies to this when I get back to this point in the game) from everyone, if that is ok. That said, my old replies:
(All was written before start of D3)
==========================================

(Replied to Lift/Cristi/SPF)
==========================================

They might've done it to save laser for D3's lynch while trying to hit another player they suspected with their shot, in case scum take/took them out during the night phase.

@Pook(in)a: If I may ask/verify, was that your reason for getting me to back off voting laser and switching targets?
===========================================

Maybe, but note that no one suspects themselves during such games......they usually look for scum within the rest of the player pool.
===========================================

I am guessing that means it would help them find the PRs easier, correct?

If so, then imo yes...it likely would.
============================================

(Done up till end of D2 in terms of posts)

Do you realise we're 1 misslynch away from a town loss?

Chrisit has revealed cop, which means everyone now has to reveal to give Town info, unless they're mafia trying to hide roles. The doctor can protect Christi tonight, which means we get another read tonight.

Please role reveal faster

Can you role reveal faster please. Mafia will likely take longer revealing because they have to concoct a lie.

That is essentially false.

Think. You are trying to make it simple, when it is not simple by any measure. Cristine has said it clear. She is waiting for everyone to check in. So, think.

Just forgot about the 10 minute rule in the forum. Mea culpa.



No quick lynch at all, it seems.

Why do you need Christi's reads before you claim? You're smelling incredibly scummy not claiming btw

Why do you not want Town to have the info of our claims?

If Christi knows certain players roles, it will OUT those players who claim otherwise.

Claim now or get lynched

=====================================================

Another town down, but at least they were vanilla/regular....that said: I will miss them...their encouraging of me made me want to try just that much harder to win the game/play better, and I loved the majority of their posts here.
========================================

In general if it were like D1 or D2 in most games i'd say no....as I feel it has a high chance to break(or make un fun) a game. In this game, however, it is D3 and we are down several town....so maybe i'd be up for such.
=========================================

I hope so as well....also welcome to the game.....will look forward to reading your reads and puzzling them out when you post them.
=========================================

Maybe, or maybe(as they said iirc) they are/were still reading(when you made this post). We likely have several IRL days to mull this over...why are you in such a hurry, if I may ask?

And SPF as well? Again, why are you in such a hurry? Got a(n IRL) business meeting you need to get to in a few days?
=======================================

1st bit: Well then if you're cop, what were your investigation results(for your PR)?

(I am guessing/assuming we could win the game easily if you told us the results of your investigations)

(Of course if anyone more skilled in mafia games knows a reason why she shouldn't drop those results asap i'd like to hear it)

2nd bit: Agreed....likely gonna hold off voting for a bit.
========================================

These are some good points.....what does everyone else think of this?
=========================================

I can count and I know that....I just have rampant OCD and MUST post old posts before new ones, read from oldest to newest posts, etc.

(All those posts, as said earlier, were made after end of D2 in a notepad for posting on D3)
---------------------------------------------
You mean claim, correct?

If so, then I reveal...that I am town....now saying much more beyond that.

Now your turn to react to what I said, if you'd like.
----------------------------------------------

Why would they have to wait? Scum have a chat...they likely made up their lies already.

With this and your questioning of Pooka a bit earlier(even though this is an open setup), i'm beginning to wonder on your level of skill...if just a bit. :|

Replied to Carradice/Pook(in)a/Carradice/Scene
===============================================

I am guessing you mean the strongarm, correct?

If the strongarm lives they will likely take out Crisiti during N3...which means we have to make sure we get that scum if we can help it as the next lynch.
===============================

Fair enough.

Still, what if that lynch(whichever we had picked if we went that route) had hit scum? That's something to mull over, at least.
===============================

Well Micro posted twice and Joe didn't exclude him from winning if town wins, so you'll hopefully get a pass.
===============================

And why do you want everyone to claim first? Is it so cristi can check the claims against her results?

I am not waiting for Cristine’s reads.

It seems you are trying to force things.

You have said that scum needs time to concoct a lie. After that a mass claim was known to be happening by everyone (but Pooka, apparently) and they have had more than FOURS DAYS TO PREPARE FOR THIS. Are you being naive or just manipulative?

This isn't at all helpful. The point is if Chrissie investigated 2 players to be Regular Town if you claimed Regular Town she'd know you're lying

Likewise if she investigated Joppo as Doctor and you claim Doctor she will know you're Scum.

Therefore not stating your full role is as bad as not claiming

The reason for Full Claims to be made before Chrisie states her reads is so we can catch Scum lying.

Hence we need your read or we assume you're scum.

Yes I'm trying to force Info for Town and The Chrissie the Cop

Bingo

What you said would work. In a closed setup. But since it's an open setup, everyone knows what roles are on the table. This means scum can't claim outlandish roles, and will just default to claiming Vanilla. If the Doctor did claim however, the rest of the table is then assumed to claim Vanilla Town. Now if they are indeed Vanilla Town, is another story.

Please go read the OP post, as it lists what each PR's parameters are**.....all the cop finds out is if their investigation target is town or mafia, not if they have a PR or not, so revealing such doesn't help cristi out in the way you seem to think it would(though it could possibly help town out).

(**=I'm starting to wonder if i'm not the only one who skims these games o.0)

Read above....all she can verify is a town or scum claim from any of us that she did reads/investigations on....nothing else.
