    I'd vote for nbsp at this point if I did not think her non-regular status shields her from being Day 1d.

    So I have to stay on Auralynx for self-preservation, even though I'll die regardless.

    I don't think I'm going to be awake at 6pm Kiwi time so Sir Fabulous because you are just too fabulous.

    Too Fabulous is a concept that I simply don't believe exists.

    Discrider, because I figured if at least 5 people voted for him I would too.

    Hopping on baseless day 1 bandwagons is not pro-villager behavior Nbsp.

    Unless discrider actually isn't a villager, in which case, you are the evil bastard

    This is erroneous logic intended to make suspicion seem logical where a villager would realize that nobody but the evil know if a bandwagon on another is correct or not.

    Scenarios:

    Discrider is evil, I am a villager: I have no way of knowing that discrider is being rightly bandwagoned. My suspicion of late joiners is sincere if misplaced.

    Discrider is evil, as am I: I am the stupidest mafia ever.

    Discrider is innocent, I am a villager: See case 1 but I appear to be more vindicated here despite there not being any greater weight to my claim.

    Discrider is innocent, I am a mafia: Compares similarly with case 2 though there are some plausible reasons to try and spread suspicion around. Which is exactly your behavior.

    While I sincerely hope for scenario one it's probably scenario 3 given the odds.

    Outside of the scenarios of my guilt or innocence I shall now note that you have made two posts that are directly in line with common mafia goals and tactics of maximizing the death count in a night as well as responding aggressively to a singleton vote.


    Maximizing death would be to try to create as many ties as you can, so a bunch of people could die.

    I figure if I at least join a bandwagon I'm only contributing to the death of one suspicious person.

    Besides, "wisdom of the crowds" and all that.

    Trying to create an alternative bandwagon that can tie with another bandwagon seems like a classic evil move. Which is exactly what you an precisionk are now trying to do against me.

    Nbsp on

    Gizzy because that was some serious beating around the bush when she has some actual, legitimate reasons to day one me. I think she's just trying to be as diplomatic as possible and not making waves which means mafia.

    Day 1 is essentially random since by definition the villagers start with information only about their own game state. Ask a hundred people if a coin will land heads or tails and they won't do better than 50-50 on average. There has to be some basis of knowledge for the effect you're referencing to matter. With enough posts from subjects people can indeed pick up on subtle feelings about if somebody is attempting to be deceptive or not so on later days this can have some value if there have been enough substantive posts from people that can see.

    Eh, you are safe and have been safe since primetime in the US past with only two votes on you. Though you're taking a couple random votes very seriously which is typical behavior from somebody who is more invested in the game than average.

    Also, you are again making accusatory statements about my motivations. My motivation in engaging and provoking content filled posts so that the village ends up with more information and thus make better choices on later days.

    Information is the lifeblood of the village and it's best weapon in attempting to overcome the mafia.

    Don't stress over it, it takes a few times to get a sense of how the flow goes. Day 1 is pretty random though.

    Interesting.

    Only one kill means that either a vig or a mafia kill didn't go through. Hard to tell which with shot being purple.

    Generally replacements may happen at the host's discretion or when asked by a player, otherwise they are just removed from the game.


    DeamonIzual, weak off bus vote? Or something this is mostly a placeholder.

    So it looks like Kime is not here, so I guess Auralynx just to find out why the first two people voted for him. Grudge or something?

    discrider and I have a mini-grudge from Gumpy's megagame due to being the Premier of the UK (him) and President of Argentina (me) and therefore naturally at odds.

    I dare not question or try to explain the wisdom of the god-emperor, lest he strike me down.

    Wait a minute, if the mafia kill didn't go through, it means they probably targeted the guard, who probably protected himself, which means the mafia now knows who the guard is, and they could kill him at any moment they feel he is not protecting himself!

    usually guards can't target themselves

    the purple kill could mean that our vig and the mafia both hit the same target

    I'd say precisionk's rapid finger pointing is more distracting than DA's defensiveness. But I think that a DevoutlyApathetic vote gives more information rather than voting on a quiet Sir Fab.
