Think about it now, if it gets down to 5 people and you have to lynch the last mafioso, which 5 would you rather have?

Sasaki
GH
Pizza
Tincow
Andres

Or:

A1_unit
Winston Hughes
Woad and Fangs
atheotes
CCRunner

[woad&fangs]

I would prefer having me, because I'm not a mafioso

[CCRunner]

I personally would rather have the second group because it'd mean I'm still alive

[woad&fangs]

Sweet! I finally figured out how to search threads by user-name again! Now I can add constructive analysis.

CCrunner is highly unlikely to be mafia in my opinion. His posts have mainly been about the write-ups rather than an attempt at analysis of player actions. While this is normally scummy, the phrasing of his posts indicate someone who is probably in the uninformed majority. (or a very very very good actor)

[Askthepizzaguy]

An endgame with the 5 of us still alive is a frightening thought, actually. I think what would follow would be nothing less than Armageddon.

I believe it would result in TinCow commenting about how much discussion is present, and how much it was getting us nowhere. Somehow I imagine Sasaki and I would be found dead with daggers in each other's throats, and Andres and GeneralHankerchief would engage in a beer drinking contest to determine who gets to die. There would be no Field Marshall Super-Megacow the Kojiro guy. There would only be Andres, winking at our pile of dead bodies, lifting a glass in honor of our supreme, and ultimately futile efforts.

Methinks our respective egos would do us in.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

I just picked 5 people who didn't post a lot for the 2nd list, not meant as an insult. Picking the mafioso from that group would be a nightmare.

[Askthepizzaguy]

A1_unit
Winston Hughes
Woad and Fangs
atheotes
CCRunner

It was atheotes, obviously. Note the telltale bolding. It must mean he's guilty.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Well yes, atheotes is always guilty. Should have used a different person for the example.

[GeneralHankerchief]

Also consider that list Sasaki posted, consider who is left alive, and consider which alive person on the list has either greatly helped out with or engineered the lynch of the dead names on that list.

[CCRunner]

No insult taken

I know I don't post a lot. I'm just a high school student with a very busy schedule. Like, I leave home for 12 hours at a time most days of the week busy. I will say I get more active the longer games go on in most cases, providing I am still alive. Plus the fact that I'm still sort of new and thus not really sure of what constitutes normal behavior for some people

[Askthepizzaguy]

I think normal behavior is scummy. It's clearly an attempt to hide something...

[pevergreen]

I'm insulted that I'm not in either list.

[Askthepizzaguy]

I'm insulted that I'm not in either list.

You have your own exclusive list.


Mmmkay about time we get back on topic now.

[Andres]

But what will be the long term effect on your psyche, on the town's psyche? Once you plant the seed of insecurity it can not help but to grow. Just as a small child internalizes his bullies message with thoughts of his own shortcomings; so shall the town come to believe the arrogant words of the mafia. "We can't win", "They outsmart us at every turn", "It's all just WIFOM", "When are day one lynches ever successful", these are the thoughts of the town now, how much more despondent will they become if we allow your seed to grow into a tree? Soon half the town will defect to the mafia on the first turn, slavishly seeking to please their masters in exchange for their own life.

Consider the outcome of your actions TinCow.

An endgame with the 5 of us still alive is a frightening thought, actually. I think what would follow would be nothing less than Armageddon.

I won't deny that I'm very talented, but I have to admit that my beer drinking skills are a bit rusty. GH is a student, so by definition he's now training his beer drinking muscles on a very regular basis and should be in excellent beer drinking shape. Would my experience and pure talent be enough to beat the well trained athlete? I'm not too sure about the outcome.

It should make for an exciting contest.

Hmmm... We should have a Gameroom chat with webcam to play beer drinking games

Gameroom... King... of... Beers?

Well yes, atheotes is always guilty. Should have used a different person for the example.

I like it how atheotes keeps getting the mafia. He amazingly wins quite a lot as well, or goes quite a way through the game without getting lynched.

Ironically, Sasaki hardly never gets Mafia, but is always lynched or night killed near the beginning.

I tried posting more. I nearly got lynched for it.

[Askthepizzaguy]

Yes, you see we often lynch people who don't post enough; we call them lurkers. But then, we also lynch people who post too much; we call them talkers.

We're not big on consistency.

[Winston Hughes]

Yes, you see we often lynch people who don't post enough

Really? I can't say I've seen much of that in my short time here.

[Sasaki Kojiro]

Really? I can't say I've seen much of that in my short time here.

We have our first volunteer.

[Askthepizzaguy]

It might be the short time thing.

We were on an anti-lurker lynching spree there for a while. Pendulum swung back the other way I suppose.

[Winston Hughes]

We have our first volunteer.

I'm sure that you're aware of the irony in this, but will everyone else grasp it?

I think you know that some people won't, and that's exactly why you said it.

Looks like we lynched the right guy after all.

[Sigurd]

[Diamondeye]

[Winston Hughes]

No, just using myself as an example.

[Diamondeye]

On a completely unrelated subject I would advise you not to post again, Winston, as it would eliminate the awesome postcount your account currently has.

Sorry for the offtopicness

[Beskar]

Don't worry, he has his tea towel with him.

I love that book so much.

[ULC]

I love that book so much.

"It is known that there are an infinite number of worlds, simply because there is an infinite amount of space for them to be in. However, not every one of them is inhabited. Therefore, there must be a finite number of inhabited worlds. Any finite number divided by infinity is as near to nothing as makes no odds, so the average population of all the planets in the Universe can be said to be zero. From this it follows that the population of the whole Universe is also zero, and that any people you may meet from time to time are merely the products of a deranged imagination."

Has to be one of the more funny and insightful paragraphs in the book. It's a wealth of knowledge if you look at it right I own the huge version which is all the books combined into one.

I just snatched it from a friend. He also has the entire "grande" book read by the author. You cannot imagine the awesomeness of listening to Douglas Adams, playing RTW and sipping red wine. That's how life should be lived.

Not like all this school *grumble* *grumble*
