Capo di Tutti Capi IV [Concluded]

[Choxorn]

Can we have Subotan and The Stranger killed tonight? That will solve so many problems we are having right now.

And ACIN, kill him too.

[a completely inoffensive name]

There's most likely 1 scum (possibly 3!) among them, and I like those odds.

There are 6 scum among the three of us!?!?!?!

[landlubber]

What's your point, ACIN; that making jokes about math is fun? Could we please get more done and spam less? As far as I can tell, we've been fluctuating wildly between targets lately, with little to no real consensus on any of them.

[slashandburn]

The inherent scumminess of the entire exchange has caused you all to level up to scum level 2, your new trait is
Scummy: This trait insures that you will either be killed, lynched or repeatedly investigated in 3 days most likely more than one. Good Luck.

I'm just sad that it took me way too long to figure out he was talking about factorials.

The fact of the matter is, those walls of texts are them arguing with each other and proving nothing to us. People did scummy things, whether for the good of the town or not, they got caught. There's nothing they can do that can save them, in my opinion. Sorry.

[GeneralHankerchief]

I need two protection groups to do work for tonight.

I will take the first 6-8 volunteers. PM me only.

[Xenoneb]

What for?

[El Barto]

Giant obnoxious pictures, on the other hand, are extremely important, and should never be skipped.

For the love of monkey, could you please stop posting memes?

For the love of Ceilingcat, you mean. You have to catmaniacs here, be respectful.

So, ACIN made up the story about the mafioso contacting him (my initial impression) just for fun.

Later, The stranger contacts Subotan asking about the hub.

Subotan tells ACIN about it.

ACIN comes under heavy pressure, and decides to act like his story was real all along by saying it was the stranger. Subotan goes along because they are buds.

Thus our current scenario where the stranger is clearly scum of some kind but knows that subotan is lying about part of the story and trying to exploit that.

So, um…all for the lulz? Yes, acin, it might have made a scummer come out, but at the cost of several hundred posts of nonsense that force dozens of people into lurker mode.

Trolls trolling trolls. What better summation of this board today...

Better summation? Trololololololololol, trololololo!!!

Vote: Abstain

Eh? At least make an anti-lurker pressure vote, all you have to do is open the Who's Posted? tab. That is, if it were day…

There are 6 scum among the three of us!?!?!?!

Not funny.

[Askthepizzaguy]

What for?

For protection, obviously. Seems I've reached the limits of what I can do behind this desk and others might have more luck.

[El Barto]

Same as I said two or three hundred posts ago. Unburden something on people you can trust or you'll have a brain asplosion. Good night. Oh, and it's just past midnight here, so it's Caturday!

[Askthepizzaguy]

I need one volunteer to fill in for a vigilante group person who dropped out.

You get to attack me. Seriously. Why would you say no, honestly?

Either I make a doctor or I kill myself in hilarious fashion. It's a win-win for the spectators.

[El Barto]

And for whoever isn't on your side, which will be proved by your autopsy. :p

Edit: what???? no :P=tongue smiley? Grrrrr.

[Askthepizzaguy]

You'd think finding folks who would get their jollies from killing me would be easy.

[El Barto]

Your user title discourages us.

[sturmhauke]

I'm in favor of whacking ACIN just for using the trollface picture. Subotan and Stranger can go along for the ride too.

[White_eyes:D]

You'd think finding folks who would get their jollies from killing me would be easy.

I just imagined everyone plotting your demise in there evil secret lair right now.

[Askthepizzaguy]

FOS White_Eyes.

Title used to be incorruptible, now Semi-corruptible. You just admitted to being mafia.

[White_eyes:D]

They had cookies.

FOS: slash and earn

[Moros]

Do you still need someone to help you out Pizza?

[Moros]

Just saw you were searching for someone to attack rather than protect. I'd rather do the latter really.

Damn guys, it's going to take a while for me to be up to date after being away for three days. I think I'm just going to read the last ten to eight pages or something. It's always the same with these capo games.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Do you still need someone to help you out Pizza?

Protection is fine, but we won't have the people required to protect everyone important forever. As such, we need doctors.

As such, we need vigilantes. Simple, simple.

Why there isn't more support for this is beyond me.


@All-
You're all a bunch of mafia gangsters or mafia gangsters to be! Why do you even keep up this pro-town pretense? Honestly?

That said, don't care. I offered, you declined. Bebe, you're still kewl.

[Diamondeye]

Just skip the text walls. They aren't very important. :)

This is rule #1 in Mafia strategy. It works every time

This is getting stupid now... next day can we lynch ACIN, Subotan and The Stranger?

Yes.

Edit: what???? no :P=tongue smiley? Grrrrr.

Try colons;

[Seamus Fermanagh]

There will be a delay for the results and writeup.

Orders stamped before the timed deadline will be accepted and processed as soon as I get time.

Real Life is intruding. We moved homes on the 9th, and today is not a siesta day (like I had thought) but a work day -- I will be back online to get stuff done as soon as possible.

Thanks for your forbearance.

[Xenoneb]

No new post in five hours?

[Montmorency]

Don't worry, there will be 500 more posts within 24 hours.

[Populus Romanus]

Grrr...moar activity please.

[Xenoneb]

At least it's better then the text walls...

[Askthepizzaguy]

So before we continue, how about we start making preparations for tomorrow?


It's very clear that folks are having trouble with the groups. Because I got almost no volunteers today, I was forced to recycle N1 people and not all of them wished to be involved. Some made that clear at too late an hour.

As such, doctor promotion is getting delayed due to lack of vigilantes and no time to fix it.

So, if you're a member of these groups and you see that your efforts are for naught, I have a proposal for your consideration-



1) At the start of each day phase, people identify as "group organizers", and they send out invites to folks they want to work with, except to people who have chosen to opt-out.
2) People can choose not to identify as "group organizers" and keep their efforts in secret.
3) People can ask to be automatically signed up for group operations the next night, to save time and invites. And say they'd rather protect, kill, or attack a protected target.
4) Group organizers can try to lock in several groups before night time comes. That way, fewer people will bail at the last minute.


I'd like to try to cut down on the disorganization.

You see, when folks agree to do actions, if they change their minds or make multiple requests to join groups, the organizers are left with 2-6 people who were relying on that other person to show up and they must all change their orders for a new order to function, and there isn't time for that with 6 hours or 2 hours left in a night phase.

If people want to promote to ANYTHING, they must understand that signing up to multiple groups is going to get people very frustrated with them. Enough to, you know, kill them immediately if given the chance.

However, if the organizer has assumed incorrectly that they wish to be signed up again, that's the organizer's fault and the organizer should have prepared for 1 drop out due to error.

Ordinarily I would but folks didn't show as much enthusiasm for N2 actions as they did N1. As such, I didn't have room for drop-outs this time, and my groups (vigilante, anyway) will be mostly non-functional. That's a waste of like 30 people's time.

We can't afford that to keep happening. So the new system is in place. That covers my end.

But from this time forward, if proper group etiquette is not adhered to, the vigilantes in question will be prioritizing the utter annihilation of deserters. And this will be your only warning.

[Xenoneb]

So if some one leaves a group, they're dead?
