/me glares at ooba

Hi everyone. Still trying to catch up.

See that gandalf's been lynched. From what I've read so far I'm glad it's not ooba. Will hopefully have good material at beginning of tomorrow.

Giggity.

Um... What happened? And we didn't wait to see if Yos2 would have hammered ooba why?

xvart.

I have no idea, xvart.
No idea.

Because ooba was a terrible lynch?

and whatever yos would have done would have just added a crapload more WIFOM on our WIFOM boat the S.S. WIFOM?

Tinfoil theory: ooba is Yos' recruiter. Gandalf was recruit.

holy f*cking sh*t I swear Andrius. don't make me disembowel you.

Angry face for stopping me from cornering Gandalf.

I'm actually town. Also, my PM has THREE extra words. Otherwise it would be exactly the same as the sample.

After my lynch, ooba is pretty obviously large cult recruiter. No other explanation for the speed of my wagon. Peace out guys. Sucks that I didn't get recruited.

Yeah see that's the sort of detail that I was gunning for. Why can't you say this before the scum hammers you. Oh RIGHT the same reason you got a wagon started on you in the first place.

Meaning that I'm not on every single second of the day?

Honestly gandalf, if you even are town, it's your own fault you were lynched. If not... then... well, you got what was coming to you anyway.
I have gotten lynched a lot. It blows, so all I had to do was learn what NOT to do. And then.. wham-o! A miracle!. I stopped getting lynched.

For example:
Even with incontrovertible evidence against someone like Yos, Glork, or SpyreX, they still usually don't get lynched for at least a day or two.
Why? Cause they're exceedingly useful as either town or scum. Conversely, useless people don't need half a reason to get lynched. i.e. you.
No offense meant by that last, but if you're upset about being lynched as a townie for the gazillionth time, then it's time to look in the mirror.

I got lynched because ooba was a recruiter, not because I was actually scummy. I still don't see anything resembling a case against me. Except by you. Because you're the only townie on the wagon. You're right that I suck at being town though. I actually do a better job of being a townie when I'm scum. :/ I'll read that.

When the heck did SpyreX get on the same level as these guys?

You forget that RC isn't town-aligned. I'd bet an investigation that he has already been recruited.

Keep telling yourself that.

It's called the CAPS LAWKE ALLIANCE. It's tech.

Maybe. If he is though, he's on the non-ooba scumteam.

I played badly, but nothing I did could have been interpreted as having scum motivations.

If someone comes up with incontrovertible evidence against Yos or Glork they get their asses lynched right away. I think you're confusing incontrovertible with "Hey guys I'm totally lacking in town cred or proof, and I think Yos is scum!"

Oh god that intro is so terrible why would anyone think this is good.
"Why bother playing if I’m a Townie?"
I mean, really. What the hell.

Also it suffers massively from usual wiki syndrome of 'Mafia do this. Don't do it as town. Lynch people who do.' as well as 'Mafia are the only people who push bullshit' and worst of all 'If you're a VT, let other people lead and just watch.'

You want a guide?



If that isn't enough protip for you, I'll expand it.



There's probably some more general principles I could throw in and some stuff that will spark rebuttal from Mafia Discussion, but the underlying theme is Use Your Brain, it's not there just to keep you breathing.

FWIW, that's pretty much the single worst piece of advice on the entire wiki. Pretty much everything in there is wrong, lol.

ooba (xvart, Robocopter87, Quagmire)
Quagmire (Andrius, Chronopie, gandalf5166)

Well, Reaper, you were wrong, what say you about this?

I was wrong to I might add.
