Suicide Squad Mafia, Game Over: Number the Dead

[Carthrat]

Oh yeah OK voted for me.

That loser. Get your vote off me right now. It's not fair. I can't OMGUS you. Unsportsmanlike. Disgraceful.[/b] It's like picking on someone with no arms.

[Meeplelard]

Rat...either he's pulling a Rando-Mafia Alex/Yakko and trying to make his posts as ridiculous as amusing as possible just to stand out, or he's lost his mind.

Either way, I applaud you.

[Carthrat]

Also, I totally didn't pay attention to anything and should probably accuse Snow instead of OK about this. Whatever. I'm gonna go take a shower. I'll keep you all posted on what happens in my daily life and how it'll affect my game of mafia (in this case, it'll prevent me from yelling at everyone for about twenty minutes.) I hope you guys all do the same, I care and so does everyone else.

[Laggy]

I can't actually vote because Cid is a jerk and likes giving out ironic roles, so I'll have you all do it for me.

I hope you didn't intend on writing that and not having it bear at least some scrutiny. Are you planning to clarify this or no?

[Shale]

Do I have to remind you who exactly pulled the all-time boneheaded townie move recently? Hint: Not those of us who aren't you.

Did he not read the fluff?  We're villians, you numbskull! Evilness is a sign of trustworthiness! Everyone should vote for Bardiche immediately, he is clearly scum (which is alignment-neutral, just so we are clear.)

Hey, maybe you losers are. I'm freakin' support staff. I may be paraplegic and forced to work tech support for B-list felons, but at least I'm not eating prison food!

(Those of you who have worked out my character from that, give yourself a prize. If you're not surprised to see said character in a Suicide Squad game, you're probably QR, or shockingly nuts. Maybe both!)

[Carthrat]

Laggy gets scumpoints++ for rolefishing and not reading my post, it quite clearly states everything important about my role that I am willing to disclose. I can't vote because Cid is a jerk. That's it. Really.

[Carthrat]

Hey Shale hey Shale hey Shale burn to ashes and die in obscurity.

[Laggy]

Nothing is ever clear about you, genius of getting himself killed in perfectly avoidable situations.

[Shale]

Laggy gets scumpoints++ for rolefishing and not reading my post, it quite clearly states everything important about my role that I am willing to disclose. I can't vote because Cid is a jerk. That's it. Really.

Okay, but it didn't say that you weren't willing to disclose anything else. Just "Snark snark snark hay guys I can't vote snark." I can't fault him for asking you to be clear about it.

"Snark" is fun to say.

[Carthrat]

Hey Shale, you're not saying you're not going to roleclaim, so roleclaim already, you already told us some flavour.

Oh wait that's dumb kk nm.

[Shale]

I did a soft nameclaim, that's kinda different from giving role information.

[QuietRain]

(Those of you who have worked out my character from that, give yourself a prize. If you're not surprised to see said character in a Suicide Squad game, you're probably QR, or shockingly nuts. Maybe both!)

I resemble that.   And hey, wheelchairs do NOTHING to diminish sexiness in redheads, Shale.  You're with a bunch of felons, your social calendar should be amazingly full.

*wanders off to do housework and game this evening with sweet pictures in mind*

[Jo'ou Ranbu]

Apparently, all it took was a vote and the rodent got all feisty. And what's with rolefishing this -early- in a game? What are we, shrinemaiden.org? <_<

[Laggy]

When someone puts up a post that's lolz h2u day 1 sux then goes I CAN'T VOTE BECAUSE MOD SUCKS, I don't think asking for clarification is rolefishing (especially since it was more in the line of "you gonna tell us more or no?") Frankly, if he didn't want it to be inquired into, he shouldn't have mentioned the restriction or made it more explicit. (This is all more or less what Shale already said, but reemphasis.)

[Ashdla]

Frankly, if he didn't want it to be inquired into, he shouldn't have mentioned the restriction or made it more explicit.

Too true! Usually only those wanting attention make such bold statements. Why oh why does the rat want us to look at him, I wonder?

[Dark Holy Elf]

Ah, Day 1. Of all the aspects of a mafia game, you were the one that most enticed me to take up playing again...

No, wait. That's not true at all.

##Vote: Meeple

We're what, 30 posts in and he doesn't have a vote yet? You all fail. Meeple should always be blamed when Dune is not available.

[OblivionKnight]

##Unvote: Strago

##Vote: Shale

Why?  I don't know.  For making Carth sad.  

Ignore the fact I was going to vote him anyway.

[Shale]

*wanders off to do housework and game this evening with sweet pictures in mind*

When did I imply lack of sexiness? Redheads are hot.

[Excal]

Hmm, good timing for game to start.  About to end DQ8, I actually have two of the next three days off work, and the day after that is less than seven hours!  Sweet deal.

Regardless, since it seems I missed the joke phase, I would like to point one thing out.  OK has already labled himself as scum.  Don't believe me?  Here it is!

##Vote: Strago

An actor, so he's definitely likely to be pulling strings somewhere and playing us.  Just look at Team America!  Actors are powerful!  Also, he's not coming to DL Con, so...yeah.  Has to be one of us scum.

Also, hi everyone!  Welcome to the game.  I think we should be able to PM people outside of the game, any alignment.  What say you, mod?  It would be just like Touhou!

And that is the most suspicious thing I've seen so far, along with his general flitting from topic to topic and already making two joke votes.  So, all in all, I feel pretty good about...

##Vote: Oblivion Knight

As for the other thing worth noting, Rat being Rat, I think I agree that he is baiting folks and trying to encourage a train.  However, given that these will generally lead to discussion which is good right now, I've got no issues with it at present.

Edit: Make that three votes, though this is the first time he's unvoted, and the unvote is on the first person he voted for, if not the second.  So...  let's toss not paying attention to himself on there so long as we're trumping up charges.

On a side note, you said you were going to vote Shale anyways, OK.  Why were you?  You said nothing as to your reasons, and I am mightily curious.

[OblivionKnight]

I resemble that.  

##UnVote: Shale

##Vote: QuietRain

Hells no.  You used the wrong word in that sentence.  That's seriously scummy.  You didn't read the text surely, so therefore...you aren't paying attention and are scum!

[Ashdla]

##Unvote: Elfboy
##Vote: Oblivion Knight

A little change of pace, perhaps~?

[Bardiche]

Frankly, if he didn't want it to be inquired into, he shouldn't have mentioned the restriction or made it more explicit.

Prolly going along with the jote votes (see what I did there?) stage.
Of course, no one can deny Rat's not uh, noticable with his "I can't vote because Cid is a jerk" comment. Not sure how to interpret that. Not sure what to voice on it either, for fear of being accused of role fishing. Nasty comment, can't really discuss it without role fishing, even though it probably alarmed some senses. Not really anything worth lynching for, though.

[Carthrat]

Oh geez um I wonder why I would mention this, could it be because it'll come out by the end of the day anyway, so there's no point hiding it at all? May as well kickstart day one when we can!

Maybe I should've made it more explicit, I guess. Like 2+2. That's pretty explicit. I guess. I thought it was all pretty clear but I understand the need for detailed clarification of everything. So let's talk about one of the ramifications of my role.

-I'm not useful to town at LYLO because I have no voteweight. Functionally, LYLO is a day earlier than it would normally be for whatever numbers of town and scum we have. (Barring town doublevoter or whatever.)

-However, having this role is strangely liberating, and allows me to confidently make posts like my first post. Justified? Well, if the only thing I've got going for me is that I'm he-re!, may as well ramp it up to start.

<->

Also if I could vote I'd vote for OK now, yeah- wait, there's a tool for this!

##FoS: OK

Hahahahahahaha hilarity, I guess acting like this was completely meaningless. So I guess from this point on though I think I'll try and calm down. Sorry guys, I hate this role a lot. :V

[Jo'ou Ranbu]

It's day 1 madness, everything is worth lynching for until the jokevotes stop. </tongue tearing hole in the cheek>

Regardless, I'm pretty sure the slightly passive-aggressive comment towards the mod and the mild eyebrow-raising it brought will be one of the things we'll look back in hindsight and think "... ohhhhhhhhhhh. We were so dumb".

NINJA'D BY RAT WHAT. Also, RAT IS DEAD WEIGHT WHAT. God-damned-. That's... um. Wow.

[Laggy]

Somehow I am comforted by Rat's weightlessness in the grand scheme of things, unless of course he is lying scum and is just using this all as a trick to throw us off. [/day 1 shenanigans]

Semi-more seriously, to Bardiche, you should really not be afraid to call someone out on something if you feel it deserves clarification and the discussion would help town as a whole. That kind of hesitation and "what if, maybe, I don't know, people might think it's scummish!" is exactly something scum would want people to play into. This doesn't justify bad play, but if you are able to reasonably explain your actions, better to speak up than to, uh, not. Same principle applies for hammering and all that.
