XD I don't think you are a troglodyte, ff.

It's just this. Do you know how long it takes to go through each and every person's posts? Do you know how long it takes to determine whether each one is a contribution, or a fault of logic, or casual conversation accurately and without any bias? Then to tally up each person's input, scale it, and then scan everything for hints of slips, relationships, etc?

Basically, you have to read all the posts that one person makes. Put them in a line, mark every mention of other players, assumed information, implication, and tone. Then you do that for every player. 

Then you read the entire transcript in order noting gaps in time, co-contributions, etc etc.

Then on top of it, since there is barely any other contributions, you have to interrogate each player one by one until something stands out, and even if nothing stands out and you have no solid leads, you still have to do it over and over.

AND THEN you have to account for the fact that some mafia are going to be lurking, or simply don't have time to post.

My analysis, in which I pointed out 2 mafia out of 3, with an additional 2 potential suspects (they were nord, Heph, kantor, with possibilities on you and trucks)

And through that, I knew that dtewi, dsister, gow, and radish were town. I cleared 4 people, and got a 40% hit rate on my mafia suspicions. It was only because I was unable to get a read on the lurkers MG and wonk, that it was as low as 40%.

So yeah. I am upset that nobody cared about a goddamn thing I said. I put a lot of time and effort into it, and it barely got any attention, and dtewi (bless his heart) completely doubted my accusation of nord and heph.

It's just not fair. It's not fair that I do all this work, and my only reward is to die immediately and have nobody give it a second glance.

It's not GEEENIUS. It's hard work. Hard work that I'm going to be keeping to myself in the future.

Anyhow, just out of curiosity, how many games have the town won when the cop died early, or was useless?

Out of all the games I've played so far, the only times that town has won was when the cop or tracker/watcher had input. 

I got you beat, I didn't even have to do any work to know who was mafia and who was town ^^ see that's awscuminess!

I kind of feel like we have this interesting rivalry now.

I'll be Sasuke to your Naruto, or Griffith to your Gatts etcetc

Rivals in the game of mafia are never good. At least I think so.

It leads to quick deaths to either rival or both. Take me and nordlead for instance. In early games we used to ALWAYs kill each other in the first 2 days.

I believe the last 2 times F-F and Khuutra were in the same game, they ended up killing eachother really early. They may not admit it, but I see them as rivals.

Same with Zexen and Gnizmo (or was it WoW and Gnizmo?)

I guess it's because of the paranoid mentality rivalry creates "the other one's out to get me so I should kill them first"

I mean rivalry as in "inspires the rival to be/play better", not, "kill the other one asap".

Everyone else? Or just a few in particular?

Quick question: how does one make colored text now?

1) Write some text

2) Go into HTML view

3) Add a span tag around the text like this :  <span style="color:blue">IMPORTANT TEXT</span>

Result:

IMPORTANT TEXT
