Look, I don't care -who- we go for, it's more important for us to get a consensus than anything else. Stop switching your votes and pick someone, already.

My vote is officially:

{Vote: Thanos}

ps: a consensus would be good.

Consensus IS important, and right now, it looks like it's easier to get consensus on voting Bernek than Thanos. I'll switch to Bernek for now.

No Bernek, I don't have a particularly compelling reason to, but I don't have a particularly compelling reason not to either, and consensus is where it's at right now in my book. Don't want to give the last remaining Mafioso even a slight chance to sway the lynch with his one vote.

{VOTE: Bernek}

@Tran: It would be helpful if you would declare your votes publicly. Hard to reach a consensus when we don't even know where you're voting.

There's not much point beyond NOT being voted for to being a confirmed Cit if you don't use the forum as a means of open communication between each other, kind of like the Masons can do. Yes, I realize that the Mafia can see it, and read it, and potentially act upon it or change actions as a result, but if you bear that in mind when you're speaking, it takes some of the bite out of their teeth. Further, we as citizens can organize to take actions that are beyond their control, even if they CAN see them coming.

Information helps the mafia more than the cits in every circumstance. As a result, minimizing information given maximizes likelihood of success. This is the way the game works; you can deal with it as you will.

When you have 6 citizens and 1 Mafia, things change a bit. And kindly refrain from sticking the "suck it up and cope" tone in your posts; whatever else the case me be, we're on the same team here.

I'm not 100% sure of that.

"Suck it up and cope" is a perfectly valid response to "i don't like your playstyle."

I didn't say "I don't like your playstyle."

I said that it's hard to reach consensus when you don't communicate.

Information helps the baddies, but it helps the Cits too. It's a double-edged sword. For example, Dakrum revealing himself as the Cop. He provided both the town and the Mafia with a powerful piece of information. If we hadn't had a Doc, it could have been worse, but he gambled and it blew the game wide open in favor of the town.

The Mafia can use almost anything to their advantage, they can exploit almost anyone or anything. Manipulation is the whole point. If everyone just clams up and keeps **** to themselves, the game stagnates and nothing ever gets solved.

But I'm not going to change your mind, and your vote's already in. I'd say this discussion is frankly kind of pointless.

If you haven't voted, vote. Let's get this over with.

Guess you didn't see my breakdown of this philosophy when me, Gawain and OGB won the MOTLS game.....

FWIW, i voted for thanos despite wanting to vote for fwy, since that's where everyone else was going and I just wanted a consensus above anything else. Since everyone is flip-flopping, I'll wait til you kids make up your minds before I change.

This is kind of my point. This thread be dead. Can we just do a rapid-fire lynch/NK back to back until we decide this one way or another? Or at least end this round?

I'm so sorry guys! For some reason, I had "Monday" stamped in my head for this vote. I'm an idiot. I just checked the thread and it was supposed to be FRIDAY! OMG. DUHHHH


Gimme a couple to count the votes.


Thanks,
Jazaray

Well well, that was an interesting twist. I love how MM was super heavy on my radar the entire game, and Bernek was almost completely off it. Weird. Anyway, good game all, 'twas a noble victory!

Good job Cits! Dakrum, hope you realize that I had you pegged (95% sure) as the cop before the whole thing w/ LA3...I wanted to put some pressure on ya so maybe the mafia would miss it as well as maybe look the like the cop at the same time.

Edit - Forgot to say that I dropped that down to 75-80% near the end of the round, but I figured if you were cop you needed to be somewhat suspicious in order to survive the NK's.

Edit 2 - Other than that little good point, I don't think I played a very good game.

I knew something was up, I just didn't know what it was. Sadly, by the time I figured it out...

Outside of the obvious nervousness, I would have said similar things regardless of role. However, all things considered, I think posting less often would serve me well in the future.

EDIT" I *think* I would have said similar things regardless of role, because I honestly didn't know who was really anything for a while.

One thing is for sure, this revealing of roles thing has really tilted the scales in favor of the Cits. Once the number of confirmed players starts to pile higher than the Mafia can keep up with via NK, it just gets really out of hand.

Well if the mafia don't try to play that to their own advantage, then they are partially to blame.

Mardak's ploy was a little too late. Also, on a side note has anyone heard from BoT?
