TWG XCVIII: A bunch of people in a room playing mafia

Re: TWG XCVIII: A bunch of people in a room playing mafia

I think it's about time for some really fleshed out posts. Nearly everyone has voted, and that's just grand. However, the votes are very scattered. 3/7 votes won't even put a tremendous amount of pressure on anyone. Worst case scenario would be for things to stay exactly the way they are now.

So you (yes you, person reading this) have voted to lynch a player. You've probably told everyone why you voted the way you did. Good job! You now need to do everything you can to convince others that you've made the right call. Let's get down to business.

Other then the fact that I haven't posted much please present your evidence Drizzle. You say you have evidence on me? You want to vote me off the island? You have to convince your team to do the same.

You can't say "Here's all this evidence on person X but I'm keeping it to myself" If you want to win support you need to show people what you're thinking and where you're coming from.

I'm voting for you dance because you're wishy washy and just scattering suspicion to the winds. Putting a light vote on someone and then moving on. It's like creating an illusion of investigation with no real reasoning or defense behind it. You're just poking and prodding. Easy way to set yourself up to say 'well I voted for x so how can that make me suspicious'?

You're not pressuring, you're just voting carelessly.

It's like you're just hoping something will stick eventually and people will jump on and roll through a lynch.

Hmm, I don't think it's very logical to ease suspicions just because someone made a thoughtful post. I've read everyone's advice to vote for someone and to use pressure so we'll have a better chance of voting out the mafia, and you've got a point. Since Day 1 is almost at an end, and I've got more evidence for DarkManticore, I'm going to change my vote for:
DarkManticoreX2

This. I am curious to see what you have in mind on the evidence against Manti, since you said that you have evidence, why not present it to the class?

Also, it is possible for someone to ease their suspicions a bit on someone when they make a convincing post/argument in which you are looking for. As for you, driz, there isn't enough steam to remotely pull up a manti lynch when its basically "fluff". Nice, soft, fluffy clouds that ruin your validity completely.

driz until you present enough evidence to convince me that Manti is the suitable lynch target.

@Vic: Any reason on dance?
@dance: what's your read on vic, manti, and Xiz?

That post almost makes me want to vote you, Manti.

Re: TWG XCVIII: A bunch of people in a room playing mafia

and james may's above post comes off pretty hard as a "Defend manti by attacking Drizz's experience" post, while then trying to deflect that notion with some generic "what do you think?" points at the end.

Gah james ninja'd me. This is the post I was referring to:

I already presented evidence for DarkManticoreX2 in post #344. I would like to present more evidence than that, but he has not posted often enough to present more evidence yet.

Because Driz's vote on manti had no substantial ground on it at all. Also, I'm curious about other people's read on others.

Re: TWG XCVIII: A bunch of people in a room playing mafia

I feel like that was a really lazy play, Drizzt. I don't know about the heat on her over it, though.

Manti's post was questionable but hers was too.. x_x

I've been listening to eva's input for awhile, and from what I've heard, I'm a little less suspicious of her. She hasn't changed her vote since the start, and in my opinion, she hasn't done anything out of the ordinary. I'm still particularly suspicious of DarkManticore because he hasn't offered much input as to who he thinks is a wolf, his posts are fairly short and usually talk about what he thinks about the game itself rather than the players, and like I said before, he seems to be using his play-style as a defense to be less careful of offering his own suspicions. However, I'm not that sure yet, so for now I'm going to vote for a:
No lynch

this is the evidence you were talking about? I actually thought that was you using your "hunch" tbh :/

I feel like that was a really lazy play, Drizzt.

This is what I mainly have to say about that

@dance: what's your read on vic, manti, and Xiz?

Vicc: town, because she just clarified on a really bad read that would be a poor guise as a wolf imo.

Manti: null. His sitting back and waiting to try to pick off a wolf after analyzing a whole phase worth of info is exactly like his play when he nabbed me in the most recent C9++ game. His mostly unspoken (thus far) read on Xiz resonates kinda well with me. On the whole, though, I would need a lot more to work with. I don't think I've read any wolfManti games.

Xiz: tough call. Slight wolf lean. I don't agree with his logic on the YMIA vote. Gonna reread now.
