This is a list of players that are not actually playing this game yet. If any pf them has something to contribute it's better to say it no rather than after a wagon had formed on you.

Translation: You suck. I rule. :P
Loyalty goes a long way in life, which is why I am so trusting of my buddy, Rick. Quite simply I think he sees what I see in Hopkirk and I find it both saddening and mildly surprising that no one else has pointed it out (profii came close but it wasn't enough -- won't hold it against the guy though). As for you, JJD, you're a capable scum hunter, so why are you looking for low activity, low hanging fruit rather than making a case based on what the words right in front of you? Sell me on the idea that us "not actually playing the game" by default have more scum equity than, say, Hopkirk, Elements, or Roster, and I may forgive you. But for now you've began to lose my trust. You're better than this.

And I have claimed Cop, so I want you to concentrate on it.. make sure everyone sees it. Then if scum have a RB then should target me. If they have a Tracker, they should track me. If they have neither, they should outright shoot me. And if Rick Dalton just as much as comments on this, I'm going to be all over him. :lol:

Scum - Sharon, JJD, roster, Tchill
After our interactions so far I can't say I understand why I'm the first thing that comes to mind for "town". But I'm flattered.
@elements in case this wasn't apparent I want to know why I'm the first thing you thought of as town
The reason you're first is because your name in the first in the player list on page one that I think is probably town.
It's not an ordered list. Just a quick gut sorting into piles.

@Billy: I notice you didn’t seem to respond to my argument that if town didn’t get coloured pms then neither did scum, so it’s not possible to ‘townslip’ based on pm colour. Do you still count the ‘townslip’ as a townslip?
@Cliff: If you got a problem with me and you’re feeling too brave to hide behind your buddy Rick like usual then I’m right here.

I'm not talking about lousy things like godfather or rolecop though.
Are we talking about setup now?
I was thinking something like 4 mafs - 2 or 3 power roles maybe rolecop and roleblocker maybe an x shot strongman, an SK or other anti-town third party, 3 -5 town power roles based on strength - 1 or 2 investigative roles (watcher and tracker would be a fun combo) maybe a protective role like doc or bg, possibly 2 or 3 masons. With 3 though, I'd expect one to be mafia for funness.
So maybe something like:
1/2 invest, 1 protective, 1/2 utility - Town
1 invest, 1/2 utility - Mafia
Third party - maybe bulletproof of some description

im not liking the fact your speculating on the set up this early.

There is is also just something ping me about your voting and your posting. Cant put my finger on it right now but im getting a feeling your scum.

For now

VOTE: elementis

Im hoping for a third game were my initial impressions turn out to be right :-)

Are you saying someone like Fish Monger isn't good at scum? In my experience some scum will indeed wait for the thread to develop before they sneak in with more comfort. "I forgot this game was a thing", "I was busy all week and didn't get a chance to post" or something along those lines. Yes.. in my experience lurking is a mildly scummy sign that a town sign.

But let's push this all aside. Tell me something: Would you rather an active game of a half roster of lurkers game? What is the best time to get rid of dead weight? is it at the start of the game or more towards the end of it?

Me? I'm willing to lose the game in exchange of denying the lazy lurkers the chance to be rewarded for their lurking (not to mention raising my blood pressure and killing my motivation to play in the process).

If I was a Vig I would be shooting in that pool regardless of who we lynch or how they flip. If I knew there's a Vig I'd be directing them to shoot in that direction. Unfortunately, neither is the case and I'm left with only one option, which is to call for their lynch.

I mean, seriously.. games are lost
because
of letting lurkers be and concentrating on the active posters. Often enough that's a bunch of townies (with one active scum maybe) fighting each other because they don't know better. I want the rest if the players (almost half the player list) to become active and do some work too, or to be eliminated so we can be able to play a game of Mafia.

Oh ok was curious so who do you think the the deep wolf is most likely? Also does that implicate anyone on the list you put up.

I dunno who the deepwolf is, but I can safely tell you it;s neither Carca not davesaz. Also if it's bob he will be found out soon enough, so probably not him either.

And no, no one is implicated by being a lurker yet. That is why I need everyone to start talking, because my tarot cards aren't that clear.

I will upgrade you a notch just for joining the conversation. I neither have a SR nor a TR on you yet, but I like the fact that you are trying to understand and your questions do not seem to be of the "asking for the sake of asking" type either.

I always find early speculation helps scum. Felt to me like scum trying to see if they can get any pings for town power roles.


Of matter of question why did you choose 4 scum. You didn't spend any time deliberating how many scum just on possible scum and town roles.

I've been thinking about it since the start of the game. I started with a "what would I do" line of thinking then thought about balance and fun. General rule of thumb 1/4 of the players scum. SK is my favourite role so throw that in there leaving 4 spots for mafia.
