When new player's are too stubborn to compromise or see where their logic may fail them, they are newb town. I have to add that to my newb tells' list. I've seen it too many times now.

That leaves my J0, Zero, Linkz scum trio theory dead in the water. I still think at least J0 is scum though.

Because you touch yourself at night. No, I won't say it, yet. But I will meta like I promised.

 

OP specifically mentions that Fluttershy and Applejack are not in the game ( as someone mentioned very early. I overlooked it then but now I kinda agree)

This means, in my head at least that there multiple Twilight's, Pinkies, Rainbows, and Rarity's. I know that F-F says nameclaims are non beneficial to either/all factions, but I disagree. The way I see it there are 3 of the 4 mane ponies. And since I think it would be careless and unjustifiable for F-F to not include at least a couple support cast members and antagonists from the show, the remaining three players are 3 of the following : Princess Celestia, Spike, Princess Luna, or Discord.

Since Final Fan was kind enough to mention the elements of harmony are mafia, and since each main pony represents an element, that means one of the 3 copies of each Mane pony is an imposter/mafia. So if we had a mass role claim, we can pincer one  mafia per 3 players, then through reasoning and leads, we flush out the imposter.

A third faction is likely to be within the supporting cast of name claims.

 

This is all fun meta that you may or may not agree with but I felt like mentioning it anyway.

Dear Zero, one doesn't need to search long and hard to realize you an amateur at this game. It's not uncommon for us ol' timers to tell the experienced players from the inexperienced. Simply reading a few posts will indicate the level of one's experience. And we really don't have to go far to see that. Like not noticing jokes, or high level of guilibity like here http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=4743923 The same could be said about that "same time" argument you had with Linkz very early in the game.

I don't expect you to understand any of what I'm saying because you have a very shallow view of how this game is played and how simple minded everyone else is. You probably don't want to hear it but this is a very common behavior among highly motivated town newbs. Hot headed, think they're right about everything, and take everything at face value . It was tells like these that made me believe you were town at first. And I left it at that for a while until recently when you showed you're not really reading through the game. You asked me (and Linkz for that matter) questions you could have gotten the answer by prior posts... but now that I'm settled down at home I'm realizing that's really not a good reason to label you scum. you can't really be this stupid as scum. Therefore, I retract my suspicion of you not because of your vote on me but because there's no doubt in my mind that you are happy doofus' reincarnated twin brother.

but you see i know im an amateur. But other people are trying to use that against me by saying im acting noobish.

I also really dont think your narrow minded or anyone else in the game but imo you saying that is a very narrow mind view of "me".

And i have no idea what a happy doofus thing is but i take it thats you calling me dumb?.

1-do you care to point out where i asked you a question that i could of got by looking?

2-And also do you mind pointing out where i changed the question i asked you?


1-Jesus Christ Zero! You asked me why I thought you were town initially and I liked you to TWO posts where I explained it.

2-Jesus fucking Christ Zero! You don't need me to point this out because you already responded to THAT POST after I linked you. You just brushed it off as, "oh not why you think I was town but why you think I'm scum."  seriously. Go back and read and at least show me that you are capable of referring to posts that are mentioned in this game so I can at least acknowledge that you trying to reason with me.

This is getting ridiculous. YOU are ridiculous! Notice How when Pezus asked me questions earlier how I responded without asking for links. Show common courtesy and show that you are putting the effort in the game by doing your own history. Look at this game and you will see that a lot of people rely on their own tabs, resources and links to respond. Stop being so damn lazy. It wouldn't have been so insulting if you didn't ask me the same questions at least twice already.

There are certain times to kindly ask for links but you are just being silly now.

Noctis, could you give an example of Soleron just adding fuel to the fire rather than sparking some original scumhunting?


In the firs part of the thread it's different though since I have been reading the thread again. 

He's been initiating. 

My  impression came from putting 1-liner when quoting me.

http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=4746766

http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=4747754

http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/post.php?id=4747267

Again with his recent post. Not initiating. You are the one that initiated it.

Does the difference earlier in the thread make you think any differently?

Also, one can't be expected to start every push for a lynch. Though I wouldn't even say I initiated the suspicion towards zero, I understand that it's "adding fuel to the fire". But in what way could he have voted you or also pressed zero that would have been seen as townish to you?


That's why I think it's lame when I answered  Hatz question. Soleron also fits it my criteria that I really don't like people that votes in the middle. Obviously a lot of thing might change when more info. became available.

Radish is also in there but he hinted a power role. He is on my null read fro now.

What do you mean you think it's lame? And you didn't really answer my question. Unless you mean that if Soleron was one of the first couple voters or say an L-1 vote that it wouldn't have been suspicious?

Anything else Mario?


Not really, but like Hatmoza said... I think we would greatly benefit from a mass name claim. That way, when we do lynch a mafia we KNOW the other two people who are the same pony are in fact town. If there are three of each pony and then 3 other characters then everyone might as well name claim now. It will only hurt town and help mafia if we don't.

I think you slipped that you and your scummates are talking in secret, because you didn't know it isn't normal for that to be the case.

Interesting. You could be right about this, actually. I'm not sure if FF would allow the mafia to talk during the day or not, but Zero seems to think they can when we really shouldn't know either way.

I'll change my FoS on him to a HoS.

@ mario
We all know how you post when you are a verified miller and this is not it. Your acting strange, not answering questions and you are just absent. I cannot remember the last time you were mafia but you seem a little off this game.

No, I am not a verified miller... What are you trying to get at here? Please direct me to any questions I have missed and I would be glad to answer them for you. I don't think I am acting strange at all. As far as being absent, I don't see that either. The last time I was mafia was when Prof, Wiibox, and I won. Two rounds ago. I don't know how you could have forgotten that already. :P

That said, I don't want to get in the "but we don't know if scum can talk during the day" argument. My position on the matter is purely instinctive. And although my warning to not dwell on the newbs stands, I didn't say we should COMPLETELY eliminate all discussion about them as well. see bolded.

Okay, I'm addressing a concern. First, you "don't" bring up mafia daytalking, which I believe is not like you. I don't recall such caution when you were gung-ho about so-called newb scum tells in the past.

Unsure:

c03n3nj0 - the only player that seems to have read my first post correctly, but the fact that nobody else did suggests that it could be very unobvious to an "untrained eye" - ie. there's always the possibility that he's been discussing it in a Quicktopic.

And now radish is talking about it.

What gives guys?


Ironically enough I just mentioned it to save myself from the people *insert derp faces* who would waste my time with questions like, "omg what makes you so sure scum can talk during day?!"

Yup! Derp faces! That's my story, and I'm stickin' to it.

Can you explain why you think that now when it's not really something you've considered in the past?


I know I'm late, but I guess the best answer is player development. I learn from past games that certain topics lead to certain discussions. And I'm just sometimes careful to avoid topics I really don't want to get into. Specifically when those topics have been discussed and beaten to death in previous games.
