Game of Thrones Mafia - Day 3 (17 Alive)

[Talon]

I've got no info to pass on, my power is a day ability, and its only really helpful if we are close to botching a lynch.

I know I've bombed as far as being active in my first game here, and I apologize. Last day out of town is tomorrow, so this weekend I'll be able to be more active.

Also, I was unaligned day one, and after night one I was given my role and told I was now town.

No one is coming out with any valuable info, in fact hardly anyone is saying anything at all. James and I have nothing to go on with Mark other than a few suspicious comments it's true, but no one else has offered anything else. I have been very vocal from the beginning of this game, which is more than I can say for the many who are just trying to skate by, which makes a perfect segue for my next thought.

I find it very convenient that Jules has been skating by and has been called out by several people, and now suspects me. You have offered very little to this game so far except for quick little posts here and there. I have been working from the beginning to weed out other factions. I may not always be right, but at least I'm doing something other than making an occasional post to show activity like you have the last 2 games, both of which you were anti-town.

I can't say 100% Mark and Jules are scum, but I do know that I am 100% town. Before anyone thinks I am jumping on an anti Jules bandwagon please note that I already raised suspicion with him back during the Knuckles lynch. That suspicion has not changed.

F.O.S. Jules

I don't understand how coming out with 'nothing to report' every day is helping the town. Maybe it's just me, but that seems a lot like skating by. As for your 'weeding out the other factions' - remind me exactly what you have done in achieving that? (The TJ vote doesn't count since he did all that work for himself by forcing the Knux lynch).

I gave a slice of info in my last post, that is all I know right now. I was RBed night 2. Btw, concerned about my alignment? If you look hard enough you should be able to confirm I'm town, and you'd be wrong to pursue this any further.

Honestly Jules a lot of my quoted post above was out of a frustration with a large amount of inactive players. I have been probably the most consistently vocal player, and I am just trying to get something going. It is very frustrating to know I am town and be consistently called out as being suspicious when I am just trying to keep activity high so no one slips under the radar. My frustration with that whole situation brought the above post. Perhaps I was wrong to suspect you, but I am unsure at this point.

As for having nothing to report not being helpful to the town I have 2 things to say.

1. I would think you would understand as an experienced player that not every helpful role can yield information. There are many roles that are beneficial to the town but bring you no closer to knowing what is going on. I refuse to out my role as that never seems to work out very well. I will leave that there.

2. The reason I am being helpful to the town is because I at least have something to say. People may not always agree with my logic, but at least I am doing something. It seems many right now are appearing long enough to defend themselves then disappear. Mark for instance said a few things after his name came up in a vote by James, seconded by me, voted for me in retaliation and has been silent. KJE popped in to defend herself when James brought her name up, then disappeared. People may have a legitimate reason for inactivity, but what I am trying to say is, what help have they been. I am trying to look for something to shoot at here while others are just napping at camp. The hunter who goes out looking, but doesn't necessarily find anything is more helpful than the one who sits back and does nothing. Read all my posts and tell me I've been skating by. I have consistently stuck my neck out, and played much of the game with my back against the wall.

There's my rant. I still stand by my vote, perhaps my suspicion on you was hasty.

Sorry! I've had a really chocker few days. I've got a lot ready but I've got a lot to say but I woke up late this morning and haven't got time to finish what I'm writing. I'll have a full analysis first thing tomorrow.

[Mark Mania]

Not trying to be silent, was on business calls all day yesterday.

Here's the situation as I see it, Pepsi and I got into it against each other both are suspect of each other but no one is buying what we're selling so...

Unvote

Let's try and focus on the guys that are staying quiet, that are new, or that aren't playing their normal style. I'm going to go back and read the past few pages and see if anything occurs to me.

[Pepsi]

I will be away most of the day today. I probably won't get a chance to check in till late tonight. I don't have much else to say I think I have made my points to where saying more would be like beating a dead horse, and you're all probably tired of reading my rants and roars.

No lynch day seems to be pretty inevitable at this point. Anyone with info to share, please share it or I fear this game will be a bust for the town.

EBWOP

For once in the game Mark and I are in complete agreement. The silent ones are a big concern to me at this point.

[Chris Shields]

I hate that it's gonna be a no lynch, but we don't really have anything to go on. If it's no lynch or blind lynch, I would prefer a no lynch and it looks like that's what's gonna happen. Hopefully we can get some better info in this next night phase or someone who's been kind of quiet comes in with some info that blows things wide open for us.

Alright let's go for the quiet ones. Rebel and Speede are at the top of my list going by the list of non-cleared players. Let's pick one, get a lynch done, and then go from there because I see no other option considering how people are not wanting to vote.

Sorry about that, bro. The last three days for me have been nothing but college application shit, admissions testing, and my senior year of high school kicking my ass. I'm barely able to say I'm aware of what's going on right now, and I'm almost at the point where if I don't get more time I'm going to end up sending T-Marv a message about replacing me with someone who has the time right now. All I know is, I passed that goddamn math test.

[KJE]

I agree with the statement of getting the quiet ones out... At the same time I stand by my statement regarding Roy. Sorry Speede, I know how you play when you are and are not town. You are anything but town right now.

Once I see where the votes are going, ill cast mine, since we have nothing concrete to go off of right now.

[Michael Jennings]

Why aren't people voting? Everyone's talking about the possibility of a No Lynch or a Mislynch yet nobody is willing to place a vote. This is how towns lose games to mafia and other non-town factions in games, bottom line. Bad game play going on right now.

I'm pretty sure that's the very definition of a band wagoner. We lost our Vig day 2 and we have NO other way of removing Scum in this game other than Lynch by the look of things, so we should lynch. If this is a mislynch, it's a mislynch on a non-informative role.

I was trying to avoid throwing a vote for the sake of throwing a vote out there. While no votes don't help the town, throwing votes out for the sake of voting doesn't necessarily help either.

I looked back and there are a number of quiet players. At least on this day, Callahan, Talon, Speede and Rebel have all been very quiet, posting once or twice. I know that's not really a help, but it's something I saw.

However, one thing that caught my eye...

Once I see where the votes are going, ill cast mine, since we have nothing concrete to go off of right now.

I get that we don't have much to go on, but this just stood out to me. Besides, I don't know how much KJE has actually contributed.

Vote: KJE

It's not Rebel, but I got a worse vibe from KJE on that then I had on Rebel.

Funny how the in-active's always pop their head out the second their name is mentioned with the same ''I am just so busy'' excuse every game. You did the SAME exact thing last game, as well.

Top it off you're on the verge of telling T-Marv to find a replacement for you? Yeah, okay. You probably shouldn't steal the same tactics you saw me use when we were scum together on the same team.

If Kurt is town then that means three people are not town on that list - I'm town, so that narrows it down to a spread of only two in my eyes.

I am pretty sure that's a scum tactic. Just sayin'.

[Matt Stone]

I'm curious what you hope to accomplish with that L1. Starting a new train for voting is counterproductive this close to the deadline. If you're going to FOS KJE, you might as well vote on the one that has momentum and FOS Speede instead unless you're just trying to throw a vote out so you can say you participated.

[Kurt]

Between Speede and KJE, I have to go KJE; it's hypocritical of me to vote someone based off activity, and KJE's latest comment, as CJ pointed out, reeks of bandwagoning.

Vote: KJE

However, I'd be willing to consider taking off my vote (not switch,, mind you) if you can provide info on what specifically makes you think Speede is non-town, KJE. What characteristics are you talking about? What's he done in this game that paints him as non-town to you?

[Michael Jennings]

Unvote
Vote: KJE
FOS: Level One

She was one of the two players I mentioned at the start of the day phase along with Mania. That bandwagon post sold me on this vote. Level One's vote jumps him right up to the top of my suspects list. Counterproductive vote there. Rebel and Mania are on there as well.

That bandwagon comment from KJE seems almost too good to be true. She's always been a competent player, why would she make such an obvious slip now?

Something about this doesn't feel right.

She's just skeptical of me because of my inactivity this game for the past couple days. If it weren't for her "bandwagon" comment I'd honestly still say she's town, but that's pretty out of character for her to say "I'm going to bandwagon!" like that... That's not something she'd do if she were town. She's a better player than that when she's town, and she said it herself in multiple previous games and aftermath threads she doesn't know how to play the game from the scum side. She's trying to paint me as anti-town to save herself, but I'm convinced she's not town.

Vote: KJE

and on the bright side, I just checked and I do have my scores for the tests I took the past few days at my community college. I'm still eligible for free tuition for two years! just have to keep an eye on my email a bit closer as far as making sure I don't miss anything that would disqualify me otherwise. Bad news is that I'll be out most of the day tomorrow talking with councilors at the school, going over the mechanics and other requirements that I'll have to meet by the end of the next month or so.

Uh, she had two votes. So, I'm supposed to vote KJE because YOU say so? No, I feel MUCH better about a Speede lynch so I voted for Speed and my vote will stay.

And I am sorry the KJE vote is THEE definition bandwagon vote. She said she was going to do the same thing others are doing right now.

Another KJE lynch avoider. His post about Speede is suspect considering his lack of activity. L-O and Rebel should be the next players we look at.
