Okay so I'm conscious now and I wanted to comment on some things. I found it really interesting to see how many players suddenly vehemently jumped on the anti-policy lynch without providing any thought at all to contribute right after
Sataric. That looks super duper pro town so you're obviously green! /sarcasm.
Here is my l"ess-than-24-hours into the game" reads list, as requested in some subtle way by Minties the unbeliever. Note that not all players have checked in yet.
Panda1376 - Has been in the thread multiple times, spectating. Their only posts thus far is:
Helpfulness towards town: None. Visible effort put into the game: Abyssmal.
Trojan - Seemed to take personal offense to the amount of shade and grief that was thrown their way. However, I cannot say I'm surprised - It's one thing to call out a player for being bad but let's not take it to the level where it's almost bullying. Mafia is a harsh environment and sometimes we'll step on each others toes, but let's not go overboard. I actually PMed Trojan earlier since I was afraid that it would seem that I'd be defending them for being against the policy-lynch-after-day-just-started idea, wanting to get a better read on them, but it didn't lead anywhere. I feel like since this is a PM-allowed game, if a player finds Trojan to be weak, just take them under your wing and lead them in the right direction and they'd still be useful to town.
Ness - Eager to make an explosive entrance into the game and seems very quick to take actions into their own hands. I feel like they could be either Mafia or Town, but one cannot deny that they're really trying to make something out of Day 1 despite having very little to go on, which is generally favorable towards Town.
Minties - Came across to me as slightly annoyed because I did not agree with their (and Tom's) poor idea for a policy lynch. Attempts to belittle the amount of information that you can get out of a Day 1 lynch further down the line, as the game progresses. Steered the conversation towards passiveness and unproductive results. Anti-town behavior in my eyes.
Zoolka - Brand new player, never played Mafia before. Strikes me as Pro-Town because of the way they are wording their posts, saying they wish to have allies and people they can trust. If I was new in a game, and didn't understand completely what was going on, I'd want someone in my corner as well I reckon. If they'd be Mafia, I assume they would turn to their scum team for support instead.
Jacob - I do not recall playing with this person before, but the fact that they went and openly said that nobody had PMed them yet could mean that they are either fishing for people to make alliances/QTs together with so that they can report the information gathered back to their scum team, but it seems far more likely to me that they are just lost and alone.
Well you were screeching about no-policy, so I expected you to bring something else up since you're Sataric. Explaining reasoning for a policy lynch isn't passive and I'm getting sick to death of you guys using that ****ing word.
Trundle used it like a parrot last game passive
passive passive. Lets talk about actually passive playstyles like
Ness flip flopping around like a fish with his suspicions and then ultimately voting for
Trojan anyways? I find it interesting how you seem to clear a new player (that is friends with you) when you don't usually seem to ever do that in a game this early. I'm a bit annoyed at how much of a hypocrite you are
Sataric, considering you used to join in on the Day One Cory lynches all the time. Please hop down off of your high horse and don't villainise players that are suggesting a spammer lynch with the word "bullying". Note how
Trojan isn't actually spamming gifs? That's because he knows that he could actually be lynched for it instead of people just complaining about it.
First off, I don't understand why people were bashing Trojan, don't distract town on something that can't be changed anymore(him playing this game.)
Bashing
Trojan? Since when is stating the TRUE FACTS that this player has been a proven spammer and hindrance to the town by lying or generally sht posting bashing? I didn't hear any of the veteran players in this game crying when we pointed out the same thing about
Cory back in 2014. There's no bashing here and I literally can't believe you guys brought out the word "bullying" in a mafia game considering that stating facts about a player's playstyle =/= bullying. It would be bullying if I told him he should die or something, which I didn't. Sorry about the whole 2016 we're special snowflakes and words hurt mentality, but this is mafia. If you want your safe spaces, go to tumblr.
I also found it really interesting how
SarasaKat backpacked on
Sataric's posts, then
Jacob and
Ness. The main thing I noticed is that they
all went after Tom, even though I suggested the exact same thing. I also want to point out that
Ness said that the
Trojan lynch was a **** lynch, but then voted for
Trojan less than an hour after that post. The scummiest player to me right now appears to be
Ness.
Hi
i have no reads other than Tom obviously acting a little strange
as for the "quiet members getting PMs or in a QT" i have not received anything nor made any allies so hmu fam
You seem very eager for a ****lynch Tom. I haven't brought anything up about not doing a policy lynch, I only stated that we don't get anything out of it AND we still have the entire day to figure something out.
I'm not against a policy lynch today, I just said i'm unsure if I want one.
You've explained yourself adaquatly, the problem I have with this is that you seem focused on solely a policy lynch and not any other ideas.
But i'll be honest, Trojan is twitchy af right now. So unless he makes a detailed case then i'll agree with you, i'm putting my vote on him for now.
Trundle was the only one to not foam at the mouth like the rest of you sheeple following
Sataric trying to look town. Not really sure what angle he's playing at right now, but it seems odd to me that he's playing so reserved and doesn't want to state any of his suspicions. That doesn't really seem to help steer us in the direction of a lynch.
From how much variety we are getting from Tom right now I'm pretty sure he is reaction testing, although he obviously sucks at it.
also please don't rule out
zoolka because they're new. ****ing Gandalf made me scum in my first game ever on TBT.
