How is telling you what i "WOULD" have done (not did do), suspicious?

I didn't communicate with anyone before this game, because it's not in my role. I simply offered an insight in to what i would have done if i was mafia. I wouldn't explain what i'd do if i was mafia, if i actually was, because it wouldn't be in my best interests to do so would it?

How many "slip-ups" on day one did you all find during my 3 game stint as godfather? First sign of any attention and i'd have done a Mikeblue and completely disappeared, but i haven't done that. I've answered everyones questions openly and honestly. I can do that, because i've got nothing to hide. If that's suspicious enough for votes, you probably want to have a look at how you analyse people.


Slightly off-topic bit about the rules
Hammer, who introduced the game to this site, told me at the start of my first game when i asked "is it ok to talk now then?" upon receiving my role, that it was fine as this period was to be regarded as "Night 0", where people with roles permitting it can communicate, but nobody can use actions (unless stated). If that changed at any point, then i think it should have been explicitly stated in the rules somewhere. If i missed that happening, fair enough, i DID communicate before any game in which i had a communicative role during the 14 previous games i've played. I didn't in this game, because i don't have a role where i have anyone to talk to.

Does this revelation blacken my name then?

Sorry lads didn't realise it had started & 8 pages already!!!!
Just had a quick read through & something that caught my I was this quote from footynewb 

wow... so much going on...
Both Wes and Hippo are looking pretty suss...

Wes for knowing so well that mafia can only talk during nights... its been a while since he was Mafia in a TCH modded game, so to be so certain about it, makes me think that part of the rules is fresh in his mind...

I don't get it, everybody knows that mafia can only talk during the night phase.... it's the rules in everygame... it just seems you wrote this post to put something on the board cause you couldn't think of anything else.... or am I missing something?

FOS footynewb

I'll try to keep up with things better from know on.

****Note: I have two kids today and a Valentine's party with both of them, so I'll be absent rest of today. Will try to make it on this weekend again...just trying to be polite and inform all players of my absence....end of*********

Just a few things...not really had a chance to read through everything as of yet.

1) BBM I think is actually referring to me as the "bird"....ie...girl...in the game...seriously I can occasionally translate crazy!

2) BBM...I thought he was completely nuts...but after the explaination of his DUNNTTDUNNT which was totally lost on me before...he is a new player and I'll give him a very slight benefit of the doubt and he's attempted as I can see since that post to at least complete with yorkshireblue as being the player that post just enough to keep me confused!

3) Hippo...in a previous game where I was mafia I did get an email prior to the game starting by two of the other mafia players. I knew you couldn't talk except during the night phase, but didn't know it was against the rules to talk before the game started. Hippo has played in alot of these games with various mods so what could have been acceptable in another game may not be in this one. That being said...I think we've belabored this point a bit. I can't attest to his role in this game, but thought I would confirm that talking prior to the game starting had been done before.

Laserblue has just come on and not had an opportunity to submit much of his thoughts, and aren't we still missing a post by Amadjin? I like to hear from everyone before votes pile up on the first day.

lots to read into this statement...  especially on the first day..  how do you know it's a bandwaggon, a bandwaggon is a string of votes that get mafia involved for a quick lynch..   that would insinuate that you have a good idea that hippo is not evil..    and how might you know this?

A bandwagon is a group of people for various reasons (pro-town bored wanting day to end, mafia wanting innocent lynched), not just mafia involved.

I have no opinion yet on Hippo. I genuinely think he will just play the same way regardless of role, too wise to slip up this early.

Nope, not at all really. Hopefully I will be able to drop some opinions soon, once I grab the time, in the meanwhile

so do you think a bandwaggon would happen on a mafia player?     

When i said "a bandwaggon is a string of votes that get mafia involved for a quick lynch" is exactly what i meant.. and exactly what you've said (bolded) above..  Protown bored wanting day to end, and mafia jump on and get a quick lynch of an innocent.. 

bandwaggons dont form on mafia members, those are usually the result of a slip by the mafia..

that's my point..  You must assume that Hippo is innocent since you are so sure this is a 'bandwaggon'.. 

being this early in the game, how would you know hippo to be innocent?

Just a reminder that I Unvote: Mikeblue eariler. Think you missed it.

Sir Villian
He's posting everynow and then to avoid being labelled as inactive but has yet to really contribuate at all except a veiled comment that might be him either defending or attacking hippos innocence.

Could be a rather sloppy and poor attempt by Hammerbro to be claiming he is Sirius Black.

Vintage Steven...

My definition of a bandwagon was that of people rushing for whatever reason to put pressure in the form of votes. Never had I made any assumption on Hippo, and even if I had, I certainly wouldnt reveal it at this stage.

right sorry i didnt know id signed up,well i guess i forgot

anyhoo,interesting stuff already,but lets get the chaff out the way first

new guy...i know he's learning the ropes but a little contribution would help somewhat
trick pony...playing the same way he always does,comes out and starts on miasg

and this is where it begins to get interesting

ryals posts nothing like he normally does until an 'opportunity' arises with mikeblue
van halen saying he's not going to disappear like the other games? where art thou?
2 people defend miasg against trick,although trick only defended against what miasg had said?? mike and wes i think it was.these 2 seem the most sus to me,il be keeping an eye on this situation....since the first accusation of this appeared nothing really has been said about why they both said this,why is that?

villian not really contributing,why is this?

also hammer are you sirius black by any chance?
with the reference to woof,its either him or the 3 headed dog in the school,cant remember the name though.

.. I'm thinking he could also be claiming someone else.
