Fear not. My new signature line will bring you there, my GLORIOUS friend.
If only....
Day 3
For some reason, this day seemed twice as long as usual, but most villagers chalked it up to the inverse of the "time flies when you're having fun" rule, as only the Chief of Police seemed to be enjoying the proceedings. Speaking of which, shlin28 denied any and all involvement in using his alleged godlike powers to extend the day, to which everyone groaned.
While everyone was voting, he was lording it around the Gameroom square on his beautiful white stallion, which everyone assumed that he would personally ride during the actual execution. Eventually, though, he dismounted and called "time" on the voting. After a couple of minutes of counting, he motioned over to his "Chief's Aide", still clad in her stunning black bikini.
"You," he said, "Fire my gun in the air a few times to get everybody's attention." She complied, handing the gun back to shlin afterwards. All eyes were on the Chief of Police.
"All right, people, it's time to kill somebody else! Lord Winter, come on dowwwwwwn!" He droned the last word out, making an enunciation similar to that of the announcer on the classic American game show "The Price is Right". The irony was not lost on a few Gameroom villagers, but Lord Winter was in no mood to appreciate it. He trudged up to four horses, grumbling.
"Well, we can't have any of that," shlin said, noting Lord Winter's grumbling. He took out a police baton and whacked Lord Winter over the head with it, sending him unconscious.
After a couple of minutes, all four of Lord Winter's limbs were attached to a separate horse. The Chief of Police and three volunteers from the crowd each mounted a horse (shlin, to nobody's surprise, took the beautiful white stallion). Looking at shlin for word of when to start, they took the reins.
"Three... two... one... GIDDYAP!!!"
There was a terrible popping sound. The crowd cheered. After listening to another boring speech from shlin about how he hoped everyone had did their duty and that there would be no more murders, everyone went home for the night.

Let's chalk up this round's massive "abstain" count to the weekend. However, if it happens again, I will have no choice but to remove it as an option, meaning, if you abstain, you don't vote. If you don't vote, you get Wogged. Just keep that in mind. :smash:
I suppose you aren't thinking of selecting someone with pizza-ish tendencies for the delightful and cheesy task of burning the WOGbait players at the stake... after which, with only a plastic picnic spoon and a large drum of barbecue sauce, I will feed everyone here a meal they will not soon forget?
And yes, I think that was a question. I always liked the idea of inquisitions, heretic burnings, and tossing the witches into the lakes and rivers and streams. If I were Chief of Police, I'd build a hydroelectric dam out of discarded witch bodies. There's just something delightfully macabre about groupthink from the dark ages leading to mob justice. Mmmm... toasty and painful.
Sometimes I question your sanity.Quote:

Honestly, the first person who comes to mind while considering the "lifting" of a write-up is seireikhaan. Mostly because he's a sneaky :daisy:. (I mean this in a good way :laugh4:)
Unfortunately, he's dead.
And so the second, ironically, is ATPG. He had a seemingly extensive knowledge of Mafia even before he started hosting or playing in games, and I would not be surprised to see him start taking write-ups from games that he had previously followed.
My third guess would be Reenk, based on his previous use of already-established material in his Watcher posts of Fillet Royale.
It does not seem to me that Gaius would have lifted his own write-up and then pointed it out afterwards as a clue. If he had done that, it probably would have been Night 1, as well. And even then- as he's said, Gaius only has 3 or 4 more write-ups to choose from. If he kept using them, he'd run out eventually and have to start writing them from scratch, at which point we would probably notice that the new write-ups are shockingly similar to the old ones in style.
That lynching reminds me.. How Lord Winter whined about him being lynched in almost all the revolutionary games just for him being called the "Lord"
I guess we'll find out if you were guilty or not...
EDIT: Shlins starting to scare me... Can't lynching be more peaceful like feeding him 100 icecreams and making him fat or something?:smash:
No offence taken, like i said not long after tincow analysed the kills 'i murder english'. I would say your english is better than mine but not perfect, no offence is meant...Quote:

2nd reason, yes you can speak it better than some americans im sure (and even this english person) but your english is good but not perfect... similar to the write up...
Retalitory voting is a scummy move, i had my reasons listed above, the main suspects weren't appealing to me so i looked for a better suspect, i had a feeling earlier on in the game (but posted in the wrong thread...) and i decided without anything better to go on that i should vote for you.
Im sure everyone has been voted for by scum at one point or another, that does not mean that people voting for you are always scummy....
FoS: Jolt
and not for retalitory reasons...
Edit: i think the executions should be stepped up a gear, lets put some huge headphones on thier head blasting out barbie girl, slowly turn up the volume until... *pop*
Yeah, I would be capable of something like that, yes. I often lurk in dead threads collecting information. However, I prefer to be creative and bold with my strategies, not cowardly or ripping people off to mask my writing style. I can easily speak as though I have difficulty spelling, and I can write in a British style which would mask my Yankee origins. That being said, I am not the mafia in this game. I could easily have left several hours ago to avoid being questioned, like certain suspects of mine have.Quote:

I don't mind being made a suspect for what appears to be legitimate reasoning. But rest assured, a weak case against me always shows up on my scum detection, falsely or not.
I don't buy that Gaius is in any way cleared of my suspicions because of the unlikeliness or irrationality behind using his own murder writeups. As a mafia, sometimes I go out of my way to do something that doesn't necessarily follow from pure logic, because that makes the motivations difficult to detect. To me, unless Gaius' behavior in-thread improves from speculation without conclusion, multiple reasonless votes, and skipping out on questioning, he's very much a suspect to me. And a creative mafia would definitley do something that doesn't make sense on the surface, and it does not necessarily follow that just because it didn't happen night one that it still couldn't be his strategy.
Mafia will try to throw you off by doing the unexpected and the irrational, if they are any good at it. And regardless of whether it might fit GSC's personal play style, a mafia veteran is likely among the 3 scums who could formulate a deceptively bizarre strategy to throw us off.
Besides, if I were mafia, would I do this???
Then again, I might do that. However, if you're going to lynch me for silly reasons, I'd prefer you do it sooner rather than later. Gives you more time to regroup and look for other suspects when you're wrong. And it's dumb strategy for me to self-incriminate myself with no heat on me, so soon, and in such a big game. Better would be for the mafia to kill me, which would seemingly clear me of suspicion, and then I can be an evil manipulative zombie.Quote:
"Hey, whassa matta, you look-a so hungry, maybe Don Pizzaguy will bake you a hot and fresh-a pizza to make you feel better after the death of your-a friends. Excuse me while-a I wash-a my bloody hands-a."
Oh please mister mafia, kill me. Pretty please? I am begging you to end my life. I did nasty things to your daughter in front of her catholic priest, so you need to defend your honor and kill me, you spineless cowards! You couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with your silenced weapons, maybe that's why you do these silly pranks with water and knives.
Besides, you scumbags don't have the cojones to kill me.

Have-a some pizza.
Cranium Of Insanity ATPG!
I may look insane, but it's a calculated move. An absurdly bad calculation if I were mafia. Occam's razor, people. I know how to be inconspicuous, and getting myself lynched isn't part of that idea.
I suggest the mafia kill Ituralde. He's been ever so quiet, I wonder why... :rolleyes:
I suggest the mafia kill Myrddraal :laugh4:
No you don't. :laugh4:Quote:
I know how to be inconspicuous
I'll have you know that after a recent mafia victory, I am 3 wins for 3 games as a scumbag, with another one at TWC basically in the bag. 4/4 very shortly.Quote:

Absolutely nothing. But what I am doing is really dumb if I were mafia.Quote:

Or I could point out that you took the bait and went after an easy suspect. :wink:
Have some pizza.
On a more SOLID point of evidence, in every single game as a townie, I've deliberately created WIFOM arguments against myself, and generally avoided doing so as mafia.
That's something you can actually sink your teeth into. If I break this streak, it will no longer work as a way of clearing myself. And it's gotten me lynched almost every single time, and I was innocent every single time.
Mmmm... Cheesy Goodness.
If it's in character then why is it dumb? You've mentioned several times that you always post a whole lot.Quote:

To respond to your observation, that wasn't the point of what I was saying. What I was saying was, rather than "I must be innocent because I post alot" (Which is false because I do that as mafia), was that I am innocent because I am intentionally, and for no seemingly rational purpose, bringing heat on myself and then responding to questioning.
And it has gotten me dead, every single time I've done it.
If I truly smell funky to you, lynch me. 2 murders will prove my innocence. I don't fear death. I'll even go so far as to say, perhaps you're being a bit too eager to jump on what is clearly baiting evidence planted there intentionally.
I wouldn't peg you for a lazy mafia, but you know, it's the perfect opportunity to get through another round. And you just happen to be here at night. How curious.
:yes:
If you try too much harder to prove your innocence i may vote for you...
Pizza:
GH never said you weren't an effective mafioso -- he said you weren't inconspicuous.
You make Sasaki seem like a lurker.
Between you two and the inscrutable reenkster, Mafia-ing is quite entertaining.
@LG
Predictable.
Well, you've done it before guys, and as expected, you'll do it again. :applause:
I refuse to stop doing this, by the way. If it takes 10 or 20 mafia games, with me being lynched immediately and proven innocent afterward, eventually you will see that it makes no sense for me to keep doing it as a mafia, because it IS handing you my head on a platter.
There's no other way to look at it. Come now, LittleGrizzly.
I haven't given up on the idea that there are ways to prove your innocence without actual proof.
But, if at last it never catches on with anyone besides myself, I may pull an Ichigo and only really ever show up to vote, and get lynched every time for being a lurker. Same result, less effort.
:smash:
Im not saying your guilty but you completely cloud my thinking with your determined innocence talk and it makes me think of you somewhat as a mocking mafia
