How about this ConeyG, since you were new last game, and 2 out of 3 of the guys I bolded are new, how about you give them some advice on what newbz should be doing. Besides just giving them the wiki link. Wiki link is all fine and dandy, but if I remember correctly, just messed me up years ago. WhiteEagle was the crazily quiet one last game right? Until the end? The problem with unactive players like Fusion, astro, Bug, FAbian, and white is yes, they can be mafia hiding, as could the prof or radish, but they could just be townies with no role or just townies with no idea of what to say. In this game, as you learned last game, even a townie can be lynched for saying stupid stuff. We also learned, unlike what theprof or linkzmax would say, is that townies lives are precious. You think you can sacrifice one to find out some information, but that is when the clock starts. One less townie on our side and one more step towards a loss. Same goes for you and looking suspicous. You should care, and not to tunnel you, but not caring is something I do not like to see post. It is a term saved for maybe a 2,000 post argument or something when you have had enough. |
That sounds like a good plan. My advise would be for people to just jump in and try to get involved. It's not something I do particularly well; confronting other people or trying to push them (maybe I'm too nice?) but it's just something which needs to be done. Get stuck in, get asking questions and don't be afraid to sound stupid. Because more than half of accusations will be false anyway.
Also don't take things too personally; it's only a game at the end of the day! And whatever you do, don't tell people you're the town doctor on Day 1! 
In addition, with the bolded I was being a little over-aggressive there. But my point remains that I want to get some answers and hear more from the users I mentioned; a lack of activity from specific questions targeted at you is incredibly concerning for example. And I do care; ofcourse I do. But if people initially suspect me for being forward when it eventually results in a large Mafia slip and an eventual lynch, then it'd all be for the best. That's what I meant, but didn't say it very well. Would edit it, but obviously that's against the rules.
