Mafia VIII: Return of the Recommencement of the Revenge of the Mafia [Concluded]

[Andres]

Gotta dash to the day-job, so I'll throw a vote out there:

vote: Mithrandir

I've not ever seen him sign up to a project, then ignore it. Hughly suspicious.

If you would have checked his profile, you would have noticed that he hasn't been online since the 3th of June. If you would have checked his posts, you would also have noticed that he didn't even post in the game he is hosting...



Are you just being lazy or were you trying to quickly throw in a vote, almost unnoticed, to disappear again in the shadows?

Oh, and to our mafiosi: killing me won't shut me up

Mods using their top secret spy cams to check on people's online dates. The end of the world is nigh!

[Kralizec]

LOL @ EF's death.

And sorry for not voting

You mean, you cannot see when somebody was last online?

I know I could when I was just a regular member. And I could also look for recent posts made by a certain member...

How is that using "secret spy cams"?

I can only on those who are not in invisible mode. Mithrandir uses invisible mode and I thus cannot see when he was last on. Only greenies can see through invisible mode.

Perhaps because Mithrandir is an invisible mod, and thus us regular townies cannot see when he's online. You, on the other hand, can.

I see.

But Kukri is a mod as well. So he, just like me, should have known that Mith hasn't been online for a couple of days now...

[Crazed Rabbit]

If he (unfairly?) used his mod powers as you have.

I want to put some more suspicion on Kagemusha.

Something like this was discussed in Taormina. Mod's have super-mod abilities. It really isn't an "abuse" of power because they can't turn it off. Just know, that if you play a mafia game with mods, they can normally see things that non-mods can't.

Why? Just for tossimg a weak vote my way?

[Tiberius of the Drake]

Vote:CR
Why were you so determined to try to lynch Kagemusha Last round?

I've not "disappeared again in the shadows", but I did quickly put a vote up (quickly, because of work commitments) for the one player with whose participation and posting style I'm most familiar - of the list of non-voters. I FoS all non-voters; Mithrandir is the one I 'knew' best. With your query Andres, now I'm a little worried about our Mith. Hope he's OK.

Also note that the forum is still 'under construction', so participation may be negatively effected by that. I had to re-log-in once the org went 'live' again; guys may not remember their login password, etc.

From the CapoII Rules & Info thread :

If I have additional abilities as a moderator or administrator on the forum, I will endeavor not to use those abilities as part of my participation in a mafia game, save where asked to do so by the game’s host in response to a valid moderator-related question or function.

I am given to understand that moderators cannot turn off all of their abilities automatically. I am asking them, on their honor, to avoid using such tools as part of their play. This is, of course, exactly what they do at present. As your own experiences tell you, it poses no concern. They're a pretty good group of people.

I thought that was good practice, and continue the procedure myself, although I don't think GH specified such a restriction.

No, I don't have a restriction on this or invisibility mode. Anybody can be careful enough to avoid detection, even moderator detection. All they have to do is click the "send PM" button and immediately open a new window, which thwarts all efforts of surveillance.

I'm sorry. I sincerely thought everybody could see when another member has been online for the last time. Apparently, non-moderators can only see that info when watching the profile of somebody who didn't use invisible mode.

It was not my intention to gain advantage by using "moderator only"-information.



And guys, this is discovery1's usual playstyle, so I don't think disco is a good lynch...
