hey, has anyone thought about maybe lynching that Ovoon guy?
Posted September 08, 2011
Ha - looks like i got up first / got into the office first today!

We dont appear to be going anywhere lads and lasses - all I have to go on today is Joes insistence on roleclaiming (and a wierd insult to xyem - were you ultra bored or summat??), and Zchinques behaviour from yesterday.

Both Zchinque and Ovoon haven't posted for ages - are they not due a prod, oh Moderator?

I see my voting for Joe to get some debate and movement going has been a spectacular failure, but I'll leave my vote there for now, as the roleclaiming shenanigans were definitely fishy..
Posted September 08, 2011
I've explained that there are reasons on both sides to want to know roles and reasons on both sides to want to keep roles secret.
It should be just as suspicious if someone is overly insistant that roles not be revealed.

(And I don't think anybody got it but the picture of xyem was in double quotation marks - it was a paraphrased picture of xyem, a more-or-less accurate picture (less). I was just annoyed at being misquoted is all - also I thought it was funny but there you go.)

Your annoyance is (was?) completely unjustified
help resolve the game
is just a shorter way of saying
give town a good crack at winning the game.
I didn't misrepresent what you said in the slightest. And if I did want to quote you.. I'd have done it like I did above - with the quote tags. I'd understand the upset if I had reversed the meaning, taken it out of context or something like that... the fact that you jumped at me for this "imaginary offence" is suspicious in and of itself.

Please keep this civil.

I am looking for replacement for ovoon but I had no luck so far.
If someone wants to take his spot PM, please.
Posted September 08, 2011
Again I'm sorry. I didn't want to offend you, I hoped to make you laugh, but I forget sometimes that no-one finds me as funny as I find myself.

Zchinque's last post was thirteen days ago. What do we do about that? I quoted three or four days ago and no response.

Indeed - both Ovoon and Zchinque been gone for a very long time...

Whats bugging me is people aren't really using their town power - as a Townie, we have ONE power - the vote. It can be used to put pressure on, it can be used to make a statement, hell, it can even be used to try and prod the game into life again (like i did earlier).

Only Violator has used their vote with meaning - xyem, you've come out with a few theories, but never backed it with a vote - ditto you Joe. nmillar, you have also been very quiet . Quad - bette than Silver in that you've posted a bit more, but not a lot more!! Can we have some decisiveness please people, or we're going to get nowhere fast!

I see the joe prod isnt going to do anything or go anywhere , so i will unvote, and return to my first suspect, who has not helped themselves at all in my book by disappearing. Im joining Violator, in the hope that a bit of pressure might get something - Anything! - going. I would be happy to lynch Zchinque anyhow, for the nonshow today and the actions on his first day...

Vote Zchinque
Posted September 08, 2011
I voted Ovoon first thing at the beginning of the day and been explaining why it is a good idea to lynch him for the past month or two! So don't you tell that lie on me about not using the town power!

I'd consider voting for Zchinque, but I wasn't convinced that Rob and Zchinque's face off ever meant anything at all. And I don't believe Zchinque is the type of player that would require the threat of being lynched to force them to contribute.

Ovoon has been lurking the whole game and has written things that have raised my eyebrows. I'd prefer to lynch Ovoon and replace if Zchinque doesn't return.

It can also be abused by the mafia to drop a hammer vote and quickly lynch a townie with no discussion ("Oh, were there 4 votes on them already? Didn't see that!").

Or be done by accident ("Oh, were there 4 votes on them already? Didn't see that!").

I throw my theories out there to see what gets a bit of traction. Seeing as the only person to respond is usually the one who my theory is "against", it's hard to judge whether anyone else thinks that line of thought has merit - and thus can be backed with a FoS or Vote.

Vitek didn't give us a deadline because there was too little voting, he gave us the deadline because there was too little activity.. at all. Today is looking good in that regard so I would rather praise QuadrAlien for turning that position around than pressure them (or anyone) to vote.

Why the rush to bring out the "big townie guns"?

Although you do have a point about the big guns, I don't think the 'quickly lynch' or accident arguments hold much water in this game - it started on June 28th - hardly what you would call lightning speed. I'm trying to get things moving and discussion going - we are currently going round in circles. I agree about trying to get traction, but I made a point in my last post and voted for Zchinque, yet you dont even mention it - is that what you mean by only respondees answering?..;o)

So, what do you think of Zchinque - this is mostly from his first day posts but also his non-show today? Yes - I grant its not a whole lot to hang my hat on, but its at least something, which I dont have against anyone else...

@Joe - Ovoon is being (hopefully) replaced, so I think hold off on that lynch until the replacement is in place or not. We don't want to waste a lynch if Ovoon might be modkilled.

If you don't think I mentioned it, you completely missed the entire point of my post.

Well please enlighten me then - i see you talk about the mafia dropping a hammer vote and quickly lynch a townie - but Zchinque is only on 2 votes, so it cant be that point.

Accident - no, again Zchinque is on 2 votes, so it cant be that point.

Then you talk about throwing out your theories - no thats not really got anything to do with Zchinque either..

Then you talk about Vitek giving us a deadline yesterday because of little activity, not little voting. No not seeing the Zchinque link here.

Sorry - I'm not trying to be facetious or anything , Quad has indeed contributed more - I'm not attempting to 'pressure' anyone, I'm attempting to breathe some life into the game.
Theres two ways of looking at it (as there are in most things in a Mafia game!) - either I'm trying to provoke votes so I can get someone lynched because I'm Mafia, or I'm trying to get discussion going and debate started because I'm Town and its the only way we can root out the bad eggs!

I assure you its the latter - you have to admit it IS dragging somewhat...

The point of my post was that you shouldn't be voting yet.

You are trying to use your votes to pressure people into responding. But you are doing it so freely, there is no threat or weight behind your vote. People see you using your vote lightly and will respond to it as such.

Start building an argument, FoS some behaviour and then vote.
Posted September 09, 2011
Xyem I think you're being too cautious.

And alright, though I see reasons why it might be a bad idea, I can also see that Zchinque has done enough to warrant the suspicion. If you're all insistant that Ovoon live on, Unvote Ovoon, Vote Zchinque.
I'm joining this bandwagon in an attempt to lynch Zchinique.
