To answer my own question, after the flip I'm thinking about no lynch.
Opposed to Linkz, I think there has been a decent amount of briefing in the mafia thread, and I'm usually only for lynches on day 1 because mafia haven't had time to compose their strategy and it's a good time to get them to trip up all over each other.

I'd like to lynch moreno, st and wonk, but everyone is against lynching a noob, so st and wonk stand out the most...
My other suspicions really hinge on those people's flips.
Also, I'm getting a really werid vibe from trucks, but I can't say I've disagreed with anything he has said.

I also feel good about Heph and Hat, and need to hear more from Linkz.
Linkz said something that I thought was kind of odd.

Where did I say I don't think there's been talk in the mafia thread?

What did you find odd?

You figured it out with your last sentence, it was being discussed by other people, it wasn't necessary for me to make a post to parrot what was already said.

so you are willing to vote on those points yet you aren't willing to say I agree with them or add anything when there is discussion?

Maybe you feel the need to increace your participation with posts that bring nothing new to the table, I don't.


letting people know you agree is something new. People don't know you agree unless you say you do. As I also said in the post you just quoted adding something else would imply something new.

I have to say, yo do seem awfully defensive about it but testiness may be understandable with the amount of people questioning you on it.

@ Linkz, I also seem to recall you said something along those lines.

@ both, I have to leave now but I will be back and review more thoroughly and hopefully respond in a few hours.

Big explanation on why hat is scum 

From my eyes, you seem to be playing much better compared to last round. How do you explain that?

"About moreno's edit,I don't think he knew what he said looked scummy,nor do I think possible scummates would have pointed it out, causing him to edit it."

ANd this is the only post I could imagine you were responding to, mine:

"Something is very sour about that. You call yourself a noob (and edit like one) but then remove something that looks incriminating. Why? Who briefed you?"

I think someone told him it was bad and from past experience, there aren't many people who would think that. It's generally paranoid people who do. SOoOoOo, if it's true he was briefed, it kind of gives me a list of people who might have said that.

But yes, there you have it.

Wasn't I supposed to get an MVP award for last round :P

On a more serious note last round I was one of two scum and wanted to lay low while the town imploded. It is much easier for me to be hunting scum than framing townies. Plus I can only be of benefit to the town if I am actively playing.

Oh, so it's simply how you interpreted it. Clearly that line means I think it is possible for scummates to talk. As does the last line of http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=4286000

I guess I'm of the same thinking as you, I just didn't think anyone would be paranoid(and plain bad) enough to say something like "No, edit that!" or anything similar that would have caused the edit. Something  like "don't do that again" or advice on how to deal with any questions that might come up, sure.

So what makes you think they can talk?

It was a bit of a trick question. Wonk's answer wasn't exceptional, but it was good enough for me to look elsewhere today. I originally had him off my list as an active player, but the defensiveness and some comments made that a scratch for a while.

@ST

Vengeful mafia, eh? I've never seen that as a mafia role. Sounds similar to anti-town survivor. Wishful thinking or an excuse?

/facepalm

That referred to his demeanor, not his role (other than generic mafia). 

Did it now, what makes you so sure? A vengeful mafia would fit MJD's seemingly suicidal play, if he could take out someone else as well. Though the role itself is inherently anti-Mafia.(as in the game)

prof's accusation was very out there, but I don't like you stepping in on that one.

Obviously I was mistaken, but look at ST's language: 
"You're a vengeful mafia member, right? Come on, admit it."

It's not capitalized, and it's got "a" in front of it.  At the time I took this to mean he didn't mean it as a title or proper noun, but upon reflection I understand that that doesn't necessarily follow.  However, the kicker was "member".  This really drove home in my mind that he wasn't saying "vengeful mafia" the role, but "a vengeful member of the mafia" because he just revenge voted. 

ST's corrected me, but your question still had to be answered since it was about my own thinking on the matter. 

That's quite a good explanation actually. When you put it like that it's actually odd that ST really did mean his role rather than demeanor.

I don't really get what you're trying to say. Please explain. I meant the role, as I was looking for an explanation on why MDJ acted the way he did.
