I personally investigated Pizza. Thee tiers. He was squaky clean.

At least the others realize it's a baseless bandwagon. Why are you so eager to seem like you're actually thinking?

baseless

What have you been up to then? Been protecting people?



Also - I am slowly begining to think that some players are required by role to be anti-officer. I can understand analysis. Or gut feeling. But the persistence of Andres against me, and of Tincow against Pizza I just don't understand.
Why the outspoken, absolute conviction, repeated over and over again, that the First Mate (Andres), or QM (Tincow) will mean the utter ruin of the town? There does seem to be an ulterior motive at work.

It would explain the foreshadowing by the Host in the beginning of the game:

Of course, if all trust is lost and vigilante justice becomes common, they themselves could be their greatest enemy.

That's nice storytelling, but it seems to me this game was designed with the idea of townie-on-townie violence purposefully in mind, to cause disunity and chaos... enough such that the mafia should have a decent chance of winning. In particular, anti-officer sentiment. That would explain the utterly ridiculous and baseless calls for a mutiny so early on in the game. Mafia would probably not be crazy enough to immediately challenge the establishment, who have investigative, blocking, and killing powers. Shows up on the radar too soon. So... why would townies wish put someone into office and then oppose them immediately? That would seem contrary to a standard townie strategy.

You might be onto something there, Louis. Very creative game set-up, if this is how it was designed. I couldn't imagine a Pirate Ship mafia without mutinous players. Given the amount of pro-town roles we were given, and basic townies, compared to how few mafia there were to start with, it seems to me the game would be terribly unbalanced, and not characteristic of the spirit of piracy, if town were so united and powerful. The balancing element, it seems, is disunity.

Ergo, seamen who must work to depose the officers.

Crazed Rabbit, what have you gotten me into?

[Andres]

You guys are seriously underestimating the FUN factor that a mutiny would bring.

I'm sure GH has a hilarious write-up ready about the funniest mutiny ever, but you guys are just refusing to cooperate.

What is so scummy about Shlin's post?

Or are you jumping to the defense of Reenk here?

FoS: Sasaki, (and Reenk?)

*Walks off into the cargo hold shamefully*

And go fetch me a new bottle of rum while you're down there.

Shlin28 isn't the Mafia.

Mutiny is anti-captain. I think there are anti-FM and anti-QM roles too.

Face it, you and Tincow love your fun. BUT...you are not calling for mutiny. Andres has, since the very beginning of the game been specifically anti-First Mate. Tincow is not after mutiny either. He is specifically anti-Quartermaster.

And the two of you are too good of a player, to reasonable, to behave the way you two do in this game.

[TinCow]

Because it is totally pointless for me to die, and if I am to be removed from the QM position, I need to be dead. Otherwise I'm recruit-able and too many people spilled their info. And you know this already, because we discussed it on the round I asked to be lynched.

Strange how you were suicidal and argued for your own lynch before you got in office, yet now you think your death would be pointless. There's another option, you know... abandon ship. If you're so selfless and pro-town, you can remove yourself from the game without causing any problems. But you won't do that, will you? You didn't do it before when your very existence was a threat to us all. Instead, you made grandiose threats about how much a disaster it would be if you still lived and *poof* you were an officer.

So, tell me... when this whole thing started, why didn't you just abandon ship, Mr. Self-less Pro-town Pirate?

Again, this is too sloppy for you. It's deliberate. You simply want me, specifically, removed and dead. Even though several people vouched for my innocence. It's pretty transparent. There's no other reasonable explanation. And you're a reasonable guy.

Of course it's deliberate... I didn't think I could make my intentions any more clear. I've been trying to get you out of office for a long time now. I pursued it mainly via private channels in an attempt to keep the issue from derailing the discussion, but those efforts have obviously failed. So, I'm now doing it publicly.

Tincow is not after mutiny either. He is specifically anti-Quartermaster.

I am no such thing. I never had a beef with Sigurd before he was lynched, nor will I complain about anyone who is put into the position after ATPG. I am anti-ATPG, not anti-QM.
