I was typing a brief response to the post below about being 'trans' when I refreshed and found that the thread was locked. It was locked with a really great post from Jmo, so thanks for that. The video itself wasn't really that funny or clever, and was laughing at not with, without any sense of awareness; but I take it that that video is a closed issue, so I just wanted to add:

Balki, part of that is I want to gain information by giving out bait, seeing who takes the bait and who doesn't, while also seeing what people are doing with the bait. I do not intend to fully clear myself, in fact if people do not continue to suspect me I will wonder why. I was also trying to get a somewhat serious discussion on a single player going early on. I think I have a plan but who knows, I might be way off track. I am also hoping that my being a target (one I put on myself) can helps mid-late game when more is known.

For now I think it makes me more suspicious then misguided, and I welcome further discussion that that matter.

guak: Thank you for explaining your position, but I must ask why you persist so heavily on bo.

Just as a curious question, if I claimed to be Mafia and gave names right now, would anyone believe me?
TrPrado (461 D)
11 Aug 15 UTC
No, but a lot of that is because of rule 8.
Espi (338 D)
11 Aug 15 UTC
So I can't just name 2 others and hope to get them Lynched, gotcha.
TrPrado (461 D)
11 Aug 15 UTC
That would also be incredibly dumb, regardless of team affiliation.
Espi (338 D)
11 Aug 15 UTC
Unless I called it right ;p, sorry joke posting over.

Espi, you'd get lynched first, and if you were scum, we'd treat it as WIFOM, and if you were town, we'd know you were a fucking moron.
TrPrado (461 D)
12 Aug 15 UTC
Since bo has been online a couple times since this game started without posting anything, he's starting to irritate me too. I know Lucland is at a meeting since he said so a bit back, and I'll check to see if/when americaslacker is/was last online.
##VOTE bo
TrPrado (461 D)
12 Aug 15 UTC
slacker went offline about an hour before this started, so he hasn't seen this yet. Alright, that's his excuse.
guak (3381 D)

@TrPrado: because bo and I go a long way back. It is kind of like ghug voting uclabb D1 every single game.

If SaladinSmith has actually played before, his entrance and subsequent lack of a follow-up is concerning. ##VOTE SALADINSMITH

Guak, you aren't really contributing, and your explanation seemed kind of invalid considering that most people are just gathering info to use in cases later on.

I'm leaning town on Balki, nice well-thought-out posts. He could just be Wjessop, of course. At least he's not Goldfinger.

I don't know what to make of Espi. Initially I leaned town for gut reasons and now I lean scum for gut reasons. I'll make a detailed reread of him when there's more information.
DeathLlama8 (514 D)
12 Aug 15 UTC
To clarify, he just dropped in (he "usually plays" on a different place too, so he should at least know how to play) - he then says he should lynch on the first day (Wow!) and says:

"we have no real information the first day, so my vote is effectively random..." and then proposes to not try to collect any information and essentially random-votes Jeff.

Then he disappears. Scummy scum scum!
DeathLlama8 (514 D)
12 Aug 15 UTC
Espi, if you want to get two people lynched, get two people lynched with well-thought-out-cases and persuasion. Fake-claiming mafia is horrible.
Espi (338 D)
12 Aug 15 UTC
Look forward to it DL, I agree with you on BB, he worries me with being Wjessop but I don't know enough about Gold to comment. I also agree with you regarding Guak. I am going to add you to my trusted list but mostly because I am enjoying our conversations so far.

Er...so you all know each other personally and interact daily?

12 Aug 15 UTC
Espi, please don't trust anyone until you have a really good reason to. Townread them by all means, but trust is misplaced in this game. Look at the arguments they are making, see if they sit well, but don't run on trust. The only thing that can be trusted is a confirmed cops scan list.
DeathLlama8 (514 D)
12 Aug 15 UTC
I don't have many actual reads right now, but

SLIGHT TOWN - Balki
SLIGHT SCUM - Saladin
NEED REREAD - Espi, Phil
DeathLlama8 (514 D)
12 Aug 15 UTC
SLIGHT SLIGHT SCUM on Guak. I haven't seen as high-quality posts from Phil as he usually makes, but he hasn't done anything that's standout scummy so IDK
Espi (338 D)
12 Aug 15 UTC
For some clarification phil, when I say trust I really am meaning I find them more likely to be town.
TrPrado (461 D)
12 Aug 15 UTC
Jeff: They have profiles on this website that tell you these things, and Lucland said back in the confirmation thread he'd be at a meeting tonight.
DeathLlama8 (514 D)
12 Aug 15 UTC
Essentially, Espi is using "trust" instead of "townread"
phil_a_s (0 DX)
12 Aug 15 UTC
Espi, please use townread or read as town or something similarly in line with traditional mafia language.
phil_a_s (0 DX)

Anyway, I'm going to turn in for the night, see you all later, hopefully you'll have filled enough pages for something worthwhile to be in there.
Jeff Kuta (2066 D)
12 Aug 15 UTC
@TrPrado: Yes, I am aware. I just rarely check people's profiles for login times. Once this thread got going, the confirmation thread disappeared from my hom page, so I didn't bother to check it again.
Espi (338 D)
12 Aug 15 UTC
Will do!

Jeff, why the comment about Tr, shouldn't you know about being able to see the posts or were you trying to see if Tr was working with the other 2 as scum?
TrPrado (461 D)
12 Aug 15 UTC
2? There are 3 that haven't posted here.
Jeff Kuta (2066 D)
12 Aug 15 UTC
@Espi: Some people on this site know each other personally from school or work or wherever. TrPrado in particular knows quite a few (see his profile). I was too lazy to check and see if those he mentioned were on his personal known list. I see now they are not.
TrPrado (461 D)
12 Aug 15 UTC
The only one there that posts on the forum quite a bit is JamesYanik, but he's not in this game.

Update for Intro?
I've noticed in games people moving into a supply center, and then moving out before builds phase. I feel like there should be an update in the WebDip intro properly explaining how the seasons/phases work, because it seems like every newbie messes it up.

ArmyandFleet - cancelled
I was just in a anon. game that got cancelled - after many, many turns. At last we (the big majority of players) succeeded in getting 1 player to vote cancel.
My question is, is there any way in getting to know who played in that game, now that it is cancelled?

PS: I was Russia.

Unlikely percentages or Bad Luck on Computer Draw
I am sure I am not the only one who suffered from this but as I drew Italy for the 4th time in 5 classic games this summer I thought I would hear about others with similar strings of playing the same country. I have only played about 10 classic games from the start since I joined and even that is well above average percentages.
