My Little Pony: Friendship is Mafia

[Geminex]

To be honest, I was mostly joking when I picked Snake. This much activity from him isn't suspicious as such, I think, it's just snake being snake. I can totally see him getting annoyed over people playing the game wrong, and this isn't even excessively wordy for him. I don't think he's trying to defend smarty at all, he's just being pedantic. In a good way. Sorta. Uhm. If he and smarty are both scum, then it'd make sense to assume that he's doing it to defend the dude, but I don't think the odds of that are great. Smarty? Might be, we dunno. But snake's right, it wouldn't make sense for scum to talk this much. I'm no expert, but, again, unless smarty is scum as well, Scum-snake wouldn't have any motivation to yell at us. As such, unvoting snake for the time being.

Not sure who to vote for. I'm thinking RPGdemon is just being a bit noob-ish, and this post by bookie is making me suspicious. He seemed awfully eager to encourage smarty-lynching.

UNVOTE: Snake

I'll be loathe on RPG, it's only his second game.Heprobably just noobish.

Cool story bro.

(To add actual substance, this is my first online mafia game, and, like, my third overall so don't expect too much from me, folks)

USSR is not communism. What yo talking about?

assuming that a monkey could write a Shakespearean play. (Which, if you're Smarty, is apparently quite easy to believe.)

Don't be silly. Monkeys have a far better understanding of dynamic character and subtlety than Shakespeare ever did.

...Town, generally speaking, is far more worried about who to lynch than worrying about who may (or may not) die N1. Predicting the activity of what Scum will do, particularly on D1, is an absolute exercise of futility for Town.

Scum, however, benefits by making a prediction that someone will die N1 and then not killing that person N1. If townies eventually collectively buy into a repeated notion that "Snake (or anyone else), if he is Town, will die tonight because X," scum will easily yet subtly guide Town into a mislynch. If Nik is scum his entire ploy would therefore be: "I'll establish I believe that Snake is almost certainly Town now, then express abject disbelief as he continues to survive (all the while knowing he's alive because we're not targeting him), paint a bullseye on his back and let others deal the deathblows."

Also, the problem with Nik's posts is that his lack of elaboration prevents any of us from knowing whether he's actually being serious in anything he types or joking. Which, again, is a vagueness strategy that benefits Scum. Nik could totally play off any comment he makes as "Nik being Nik." I'd rather not spend the whole game questioning the sincerity of every one-sentence statement he makes.

NOTE: Even in typing this I am aware of the likelihood that I am overestimating the crap out of Nikose, and out of everyone playing this game. Assuming Nikose of all people would be playing intelligently and making such gambits as scum is kind of like assuming that a monkey could write a Shakespearean play. (Which, if you're Smarty, is apparently quite easy to believe.)
Nonetheless, I'm sticking by my guns and also suggesting to you all that I think Town Nik would be much more talkative than this; I think there's a greater probability Scum Nik would feel a sense of responsibility towards his teammates and subsequently tone down his usually chatty behavior to benefit his team.

As Town 'Nilla, Nik would totally like be "I AM CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE YOU PUNKS," and he'd create some controversy. I know you Nik! You would!

Umm Nikose was clearly joke voting.

Bookworm, outta curiosity.
Why unvote smarty all of a sudden?

WHen does the night end?

At some point after the day does.

[Oron]

Are you just eyeballing it until there's a reasonable bit of activity by way of getting some votes in?

Regardless of how much time's left...

Unvote: Smarty

Nothing's happening there, and it was a joke vote anyway.

[Bard The 5th LW]

Bluh, I meant the day. When does it end? Has that been decided yet?

Probably Wednesday or Thursday.

Let's say Thursday afternoon.

I'm usually free then.
