    Unvote

    I'm going to sleep, and I don't want my vote to lynch an innocent while I sleep.

    The challenge stands, though
    From wise men, O Lord, protect us -anon
    The death of one man is a tragedy; the death of millions, a statistic -Stalin
    We can categorically state that we have not released man-eating badgers into the area -UK military spokesman Major Mike Shearer

    Well, BK, you must admit you are talking much more than usual. Your regular style is lurking throughout the whole game, so what's up? Why the change in style?

    And where's Ichigo? He's usually the one with the most posts in mafia games...?

    Oh, and since we are using another voting system, maybe you should all hold in mind that one or two votes won't pressure anybody to talk. You'll need at least (The required number of votes to lynch) - 2 to put some real pressure on a player.

    Voting for somebody because he is "bandwagoning" is not a good reason in this system. As Sigurd pointed out, a bandwagon is neccessary to obtain a lynching, so you can't put suspicion on a player because he tries helping the town in getting a suspect lynched.

    So, to put some real pressure:

    Unvote; Vote : ByzantineKnight

    Mostly because of the sudden change of style compared to previous games. A decent explanation please.


    Andres: 1 (BK)
    ByzantineKnight : 4 (Tran, Redleg, Stig, Andres)
    greaterkhaan : 1 (BlackAxe)
    Stig : 1 (CA)
    TwilightBlade: 1 (pevergreen)
    Xehh: 1 (Xdeathfire)
    No lynch: 1 (HughTower)
    Vote:Abstain (TS)

    He couldn't vote Sasaki so he's on strike

    Wrong, bandwagoning is voting without a reason
    If enough of us are convinced of his quilt no-one is bandwagoning.

    You're right. But it seems like some players call putting a third or fourth vote on somebody, even with an explanation, "bandwagoning".

    Erm, actually, he's wrong.

    To 'bandwagon' is to join a growing campaign against one person for no good reason apart from the fact that there is already a campaign against them.

    If we all just voted without any argument or explanation, the Mafia could more easily use it as an opportunity to hide & to get a free kill. So, to avoid being accused of 'bandwagonning', you should try & give your reasons for why someone should be lynched.

    This is wrong too. 'Bandwagoning', as explained above, is voting in a suspicious or unhelpful manner; a well-considered majority verdict is necessary for a lynching - there's a key difference between the two.

    It's alright to think somebody's argument is good - you just need to explain why you think it's good.

    As BK - noise at the beginning of the game is just noise. I don't think he's our man.

    @BK: you have to compare my posting habits to Cosa Nuova II which is my new standard. I don't want another humiliation of a total mafia victory like we saw in Ichigo's game...

    Vote: ByzantineKnight. Please explain the whole shop deal.
    It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.

    Whenever I am in more than one mafia games at the same time such as Three Sons of Algamar, Monks and Masons 2, and Texas Mafia (not sure this is at the same time), I am very active in one, and, yes, I lurk in the others. I happen to post alot in this one, because I love the concept (Thanks Sasaki!!)

    @Everyone who said that Andres post alot: I know that, I was pointing out that he is posting more than normal...

    @Tran: I was really trying to make a joke, i thought only mafia could use the weapons...
