actually, i died in that game. that was my first one, and the best ever. but that was in the middle of summer and i had way more time back then. im at uni 5 days now, and i work, so its a little more difficult. maybe i read the "192 posts" wrong, fuck if i know. i've been trying my hardest to keep up. i'm here now and i'll be here later. now give me some bloody time please, the game is moving so damn fast.

plus, what does OTOH mean. on the other hand?

ah ok.

I understand having a hectic schedule, but "fuck if I know" isn't going to excuse you from that. I'll be keeping an eye on you, but I can empathize with having no free time.

i cant exactly go back in time and check how many unread posts there were, i saw it as i clicked the thread in my sidebar. I know i haven't kept up all that well, but i've not been purposefully lurking or anything so maybe it wasnt 192. I've just been busy, but doing my best to follow. And I don't lurk in games cos thats a) stupid, b) i like to play and participate (really) and c) its suspicious. whether i was mafia or not, i wouldnt want to draw negative attention to myself by lurking.

and yes OTOH means on the other hand.

lol thanks for clarification

EDIT: to clarify, I think you've been trying to make it look like you're participating and keeping up by putting the blame on others, which doesn't necessarily make you scum, but is a common scum lurking tactic. I understand that an explanation might be that you feel bad about not being here, but it's still no excuse.

not trying to MAKE IT LOOK LIKE anything, i dont need to make it look the way it is. i've been participating as much as i can. not my fault im hours ahead of most people on this site (havent checked ALL individual profiles, but you, ABC and noname all live in the states. its past midnight here already. (not meaning to bitch, sorry)

Someone, not sure who, said I'd acted "calmly" when discussing/voting. I'd like to know how thinking rationally and not losing the rag is suspicious? i'm not usually one for drama  :/

I'm confused.  What I "bought" is what you said in point one.  Also I'm really not sure what it has to do with 3.

ABC: "The second, sort of. I wantedto see prof post along with heph but that time I just wanted to see all the players start conversing and prof and tangent were the only ones not. I would have mentioned Tangent but he said he was gone and would come back yesterday...where the hell is tanget anyways"

Now ABC only mentioned waiting on prof originally, on 02/10/11 17:30 EST
Trangent's only post happened 
on 02/10/11 18:17 EST

This is what jumped out at me immediately. If he had said something like "prof has voted already while trangent didn't" then I could've understood why he only mentioned prof. Whether ABC is scum or not, I did not think you would be fooled by such a statement.

 

There are more posts I'd like to get to, but it's time to enjoy the "holiday." For all intents and purposes I am voting for ABC. I'm interested in where the current dialogues are going though, so I'm going to wait until I return to make it official if it will even be needed.

Does ABC's messing up of time however make you think that he meant he wanted profs opinion like it was worded? Or do you think that he was wanting profs opinions on other players? 

I'm thinking he wanted to form an opinion of prof and other players who hadn't played.  If you are in agreement there then I bought nothing you didn't

You are right about his explanation for not mentioning trangent doesn't make sence.  However another simple answer could do. Trangent hadn't posted yet and since I doubt ABC looked back to the list of players to make a list of people he went with one person he had seen post a few at the beginning but then nothing more. 

Now I'm not sure of the timing of me asking him these things however iirc (and please correct me if I'm wrong) it was after at least prof if not you as well were talking of ignoring ABC.  Since I got enough of an explanation to satisfy me I let it go.  Now with him talking in a more clear manner I do feel like going back and having him clarify things.

2. @ABClown Situation: Is it really important that he plays Mafia on another site? I mentioned that I did that on my first game here and you guys just found the site, had a few lols at the 60 player game, and left it be. I'm sure that he's not a multi - let's just move on xO

2. Good point prof hase focused on that too long

 

 

" I used to play a few Mafia games at a time, and therefore I didn't have all of my time available to catch up on the games that were occuring on VGC. However, this game I've decided that I'll only play one game of Mafia at a time. I thought that this would have an effect on the way that I played, and I actually thought that it was working, but you don't seem to notice that I've changed. It's not the same old radishhead - I'm still improving, but surely you notice a little difference?"

 

Yup I focus on playing outside games too much! </sarcasm>

 

secondly wonk, you don't know about wessle, or some of the other players that simply do not care how they play. If someone has outside experience and they are posting like a lunatic, I'd like to know what frame of reference I should be using.

I know I don't understang about past people on here, so I can understand concern about an alt or someone playing many games.  However the thing that stood out the most to me was if he plays outside games why was he so unsure of how the game works.  So that should have been the focus of the questions.  Not who it was with or where. 

I wasn't really satisfied with his answers for why he didn't understand how the game works since he's played before. I do agree he's doing better as a robot, but I still have some digging to do.

yaknow wonk, it was a little bit of everything. Go back and read my posts. I said, how can you be familiar with vgc mafia games and not be familiar with how to read vote totals.

He also said that he had read me playing on here, yet then he said the only game he read was DBZ, which I hadn't played in, and which had vote totals showing unvotes.

Now, ABC, I don't want you to respond to this. Just ignore it. 

Wonk, I've attacked ABC from every different angle, and covered just about everything there is to cover, so if you want to be one of those people saying, "prof is harping on the same subject" be my guest. It's not the same subject, it's different sides of the same coin/dice, and I'm just going to ignore it from now on. 


I do plan on rereading it.  So I'll comment further then. 

Edit I see this is sitting in the second window I was useing earlier.  I meant to post this a while ago.

It is also helpful for townies to see who thinks like them as well. 

Why?  What benefit does a townie get from this if they're not actively lobbying for votes?


There are several I think I have pointed this out to linkz so some might be repeated but some might be knew

Seeing people who think like you can lead to a future vote even if not a current vote.

Also dependind on what they agree with how they agree and if they point out any flaws you can get some idea on the other players alignment. 

Yes it could be more easy to manipulate if you aren't going for a current vote but you can still get information.  Or know you have to go back and refine the idea. 

I'm not convinced.  I'd be delighted to give you a more in-depth answer to why these reasons are either incorrect or merely superfluous after the game, but for now suffice it to say that you can accomplish all of these goals just as easily by throwing out your own observations and questions, i.e. by being a townie.

Well after the game then. Personally I don't see running my idea that different than making an observation or making a question.  Since my idea was based on observations and pretty much I was asking the question to everyone what are your thoughts on this? 



right. see this post, why was ABC apparently going along with the "prof will check people out thing"

why didn't he just say what he'd meant, that he wanted to check out prof.?

if that was me and id said something so vague and potentially dangerously ambiguous, id be shitting myself trying to clarify.

i know i seem to be keeping it purely on ABC, but he IS the one im suspicious of. im looking for evidence of that. gimme 4 or 5 hours to sleep and i'll be back to check out wonk and stefl. promise.

Statement: Yes, on the first page the only user I reconized was prof.

I have seen prof all over VGchartz so I would know him better than tangent.

Also, when I skimmed the first page I saw his post, he had one post and checked in.

Tanget did not check in later:

http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=3910213

I wanted to wait on him because at the time, he was the only one who checked in and wasn't active at the time.

Listen, you said 192 posts overnight. @192 posts ago that was 28 hours ago. 

So maybe it didn't say 192. I don't know. All I know is what you said, and I put it into context.

You can SAY that you aren't trying to make it look like anything, but that doesn't make it so. Your words hold absolutely zero weight until you are cleared.

What it looked like to me is that you were shouldering the burden on us by saying we talk to much for you to keep up. That's what it looks like PERIOD. I'm sorry if you don't feel that way, but I can't just believe whatever you say. I see the facts and I see discrepancy there. "I made a mistake" does not automatically remove that evidence, just as someone saying, "I'm a townie!" does not make them so.

 

as far as being calm as a scum trait, it is what it is. Mafia don't have the same suspicions and paranoia that townies do. I caught Hatmoza twice for being calm. 

 

Also, and though I know it's not your fault, Heph's glossing over of your 192 post statement makes me think he's covering for you, but that's an argument for a different time.



As for my vote at the moment currently I'm waiting on heph's responce because depending on how that goes my vote might be on him.  He needs a pretty good explanation as to why his explanation for my argument being illogical only covers one of the many points.  Because I'd have a hard time seeing him reading the thread and missing other points I've made several times.  So if that means he was intentionally leaving them out to make his own point.  It doesn't look to good.

If heph somehow comes up with this amazing explanation that I find believable and if fact believe.  My vote would be on ABC

?

You lost me.  This all started with a statement you made after quoting linkz and heph, not from a question you asked, so what are you referring to?

Additionally, can you please answer the question I posed to everyone, i.e. who would you vote for right now and why?
