But it's such a small chance, it doesn't even feel worth it. And it could just end up getting rid of someone who may have been really looking forward to play.
oh yeah there is that...I think lynching a newbie on day 1 is not a good idea, it would be kinda discouraging :/
Newbie with some input here.
(jesus this got hot fast)
No one's argument is invalid. I agree with Jenn. We should not randomly lynch somebody. For one, most of the people who haven't checked in are new, and second, it'd be kinda sad if someone just got on and found out they were lynched before even being able to try. I say we do lynch somebody, but make sure it's not random. We already have 2 suspicions, so we should just pick the one with the most truth behind it.
ccemuka - Asked if Mafia can PM each other, not just townies. (A lot of people think this is suspicious!)
Ashtot - Changed subject when it came to lynching ccemuka... perhaps trying to protect them? (Only two people have thought this was suspicious - this is including me. Let's discuss this?)
Okie back to being a noob in the corner. c:
Thank you! It's nice to know I wasn't alone in my suspicions.
BellBringerGreen - And you're able to tell someone isn't going to improve during the first day? It may be 48 hours, but it's not like anyone has time to post the entire 48 hour period :/

What's with the sudden change? You've never been so indecisive.Ash, I'm going to have to agree with Jen here. I think we should go for a No Lynch- that way the risk of hitting a Town player is lowered. The pros of a No Lynch outweigh the cons. Unless of course someone comes up with a case while I'm asleep...
##VOTE: No Lynch

Oh wait actually gonna vote for Dolby whoops
No, no, no. Not lynching at all is not smart at a all. We have to take every opportunity to get rid of mafia, and there's no way for evidence to come up for someone this early. That's precisely why we go for inactives or non-contributors because they have been given chances to improve, but time and time again they prove that they won't. So lynching someone who may cause problems later on in the game or be a distraction throughout is a logical first day lynch choice~~
There's times in the past where people brought up inactives for lynching, and they don't even defend themselves, or if they do they're about to reach majority practically. now if the names I brought up or Ashtot brought up get on, defend themselves and promise to try and do better, great! We'll see if they do. But if they fail to defend, why keep them in the game?
I don't see how lynching randomly is smart--it just seems mean and inconsiderate. It's making assumptions on everything. Someone sees you immediately go after them and then just gives up hope. I just feel no lynch is more respectful to everyone unless we properly find suspicions for someone.
As CheyLily said, we have two suspicions already so.
As town, lynching is really one of the few things we have to eliminate mafia. >.>
Lynch cory 2k14
Before we start going around lynching people, perhaps we should discuss strategies and suspicions first.
Strategies:
ABSOLUTELY NO ROLECLAIMING EN MASSE.
Doctors and Detectives, I suggest doing the unexpected. If you are in contact with any other blues, be absolutely sure they are blue before doing what they say.
To the newbies; do not PM anyone for help unless you have a coach or are 197% sure they are Town.
Suspicions:
Typically, oath2order would have posted by now. Unless I'm missing something; please let me know if I am.
This is the framework leading to Oath's second post. Purpl was the only person to call oath out (unless i missed something). What comes next i find extremely scummy. I'm not saying that oath wasn't working, i believe him, but...Purpl Ive been at work since 4pm est and away from IRC even longer. My nane shows up in it because its a BNC.
Suggesting a lynch of the only player who finds you so much as slightly suspicious is the scummiest thing i've seen in mafia!Maybe a purpl lynch?
and here we have one of the most useless posts i've ever seen pointing out obvious information.As town, lynching is really one of the few things we have to eliminate mafia. >.>

What i find strange right now is that oath has only posted four times and that two of the times it was it was suggesting people to lynch. Normally, from even a newbie, i wouldn't find this strange except HE USED THREE OR FOUR WORDS EACH TIME, the other post was from when purpl called him out. Right here is oath's first post
Cory is actually a player who is showing some potential in my opinion, i havn't been following recent games but in biomafia he managed to come up with a good day one lynch case with convincing evidence as scum. Again, i havn't followed recent games so bear with me on this point

Bottom line, i think we should lynch oath
