Please explain...?

Quick lynch = votes piled so fast that a lynch occurs without much discussion. Harder to interrogate people.

That's good to shake people down like that though. It's good to see how people react under pressure. CD is really good at playing the bad cop but seemed to lose his wind coming into Day 2. Not his normal behavior which makes me a little more suspicious of him

 

Anyway, keep up the aggressive style. Voting also can turn up the heat real quick. It not only pressures our must suspicios players but also forces people to cement their position and not sit on the fence being wushu washy.

Playing the game through my Blackberry Torch instead of work computer (they started to crack down). Much harder to review past posts and make long detailed analysis. Don't play at home lately.

@ccabal86 I am so sorry, I didn't see that post! My mistake!

 

No problem! :)

 

Please explain...?

 

A quick lynch means we have less time for discussion, less time to figure out who is scum and who is not, less time to watch people how they react to certain things etc... I argued FOR a lynch, but only at the end of the day, when we've used up all the available time to make a decision.

Me too, def harder to pour back thru prev posts. I know you're probably watching a lot of hockey lately as well eh?

Oh yeah!!! Round 2 baby!!!

That game 7 was a nail biter.

 

GO CANUCKS GO!!!!

Ok, I want to know why EM, CD and Preston think voting out an inactive (Cao Cao) will further the town in any way.

Kevin and EM have somewhat answered this, and I addressed it in my previous post - but I'll reiterate/expand my thoughts here.

 

CD and Cao Cao are my top 2 suspects at present - and while I dont have a STRONG suspicion on either, they are the three left on the list that voted for d3mon - aside from TC who is now confirmed town by using his role. CD and ccabal have at least had their say defending themselves, and cao cao is either lying low or genuinely inactive. I've put my vote on him to try and pressure him out if it's the former, and to prepare a lynch on him if it's the latter. EM's list helps solidify my position to where I may keep my vote on him even if he returns, but for the moment if cao cao DOES come back to remove the inactivity factor and give us something to examine, I'll unvote pending discussion on that.

 

Regarding lynching cao cao as an inactive: If we have no more replacements available and Cao Cao idles out so that his role is modkilled, it's like an extra lynch happens today and potentially gives us a double penalty if both he AND whomever else we lynch today turn out to be town. That double penalty could push us over the edge to lose the game TODAY : 11 started the game, -1 day1 lynch (d3mon), -1 night1 (nerau), -1 day2 lynch(if we mislynch today), -1 modkill/inactive(if cao cao idles out and is town), -1 night2 (night2) = 11 - 5 = 6 surviving players; which per the rules would mean scum win if all 3 are still alive. I'd appreciate a veteran verifying these numbers/that this WOULD constitute a game-over. If there are two scum on the list that voted for d3mon then this scenario is impossible, but if there's only one then this is a possibility.

 

At some point we need to just make a choice out of someone on that list and cross our fingers. Cao Cao has acted suspiciously enough that he's a good candidate, and if he's going to idle out I don't want to risk the game ending right there. If we lynch him, we both test a viable scum candidate and guard against a day 2 loss due to inactive/modkill.

I agree with Preston on this one. IF CaoCao idles out and there are no replacements, then (while stating who we would vote for if that wasn't the case) everyone should probably vote for him.

 

It would be very unfortunate if it came to this, inactivity is a big enough problem in this game as it is. I hope CaoCao can be reached or at least replaced with someone.

It wouldn't be a mod kill but if he's townie, that a vote that won't go on a scum. It shifts the odds ...

 

I don't want to lynch CD until the Canucks are eliminated!

Which hopefully won't be anytime soon.

:lol:

I thought if someone went inactive and there was no replacement, they'd be removed from the game entirely - i.e. modkilled. Is that not the case? It'd make things a lot safer for us if so, but obviously the best case would be if cao cao actually returns and makes all of this moot...

I was asking the other guy for his explanation, to be honest...

No problem! :)

Hmmm...

 

drops his FOS.

 

This leaves CaoCao.... I still don't trust EM, but his lists are accurate enough to use...

So we need to lynch scum or it will be LYLO on day 3. Also AKCPLUTO hasn't posted since he replaced Narsis. FOS-AKCPLUTO unless he starts posting soon. Mole the above vote count is wrong CaoCao did not vote for himself

Corrected Mega Catch-Up VOTE COUNT

CaoCao (3): Electric Mango, CanucksDynasty, Preston

CanucksDynasty (1): ccabal86

 

Not Voting (6): AKCPLUTO, CaoCao, KevinH, reign of terror, TerrorChrist, Nerau

I am tempted to jump the bandwagon here...

 

if CaoCao turns out to be innocent, my suspicion would return to E-M.

 

However, I am not going to survive the night ;)

So you agree with my reasoning with voting for cao cao but if I'm wrong then the blame is all on me? Sounds fair.

Pretty much.

 

How many votes to lynch? And deadline approaching fast? We've got almost a week to go... plenty of time.

10 people left....

 

normal majority: 6

half majority: 2.5 = 3

 

So at nightfall, we will have a lynch with the current votes already.

 

With 3 maffia, only one townie voting "wrong" is enough for them to win. We be screwed...

The lynch numbers are correct. And don't forget that we will lose Nerau at the end of the day.

So are you saying I should bandwagon with the CaoCao voters?
