Date: Tue 25th November 16:42:45 +1000 To: boris@villagemail.com From: jason@villagemail.com Subject: funny goings on... Hey Boris! Is it just me or did the sun seem to come up a little late this morning? Mmm... perhaps I just need stronger coffee. Very worrying news in this morning's paper. While I didn't know him well, Nazdakka always struck me as a fine upstanding citizen. Not to mention amicable, he seemed to get on with nearly everyone. Not the sort of person who gathers enemies. I wonder who would want him dead? I must say that someone working at the Trumpet and Bugle really has their finger on the pulse. They always seem very up to date with the happenings of the last few hours in the morning edition. Much more so than those idiots at the Herald and Tribune. BTW, you notice the large number of new people in town lately? Seems a lot of people have turned up in the last month or so. I wonder is there any link? To the best of my knowledge (you know how I love my historical trivia), there has only been one other murder in this town in the last 100 years. And that was nearly 80 years ago (some bloke got a bit peeved when his wife ran off with his boss the same day he got the sack). So, you got any of your usual conspiracy theories to cover this one? You never know, one of these days you may actually be on to something. cheers, Jason p.s. Didn't see you at the lecture yesterday. I know Dr. Muzzz is a bore most of the time, but he was really in his element talking about random number generation. Believe it or not, it was actually an interesting lecture. Pity you missed it. p.p.s. You catch Liquid_Evil's little performance in the town square the other night? Drunk as a skunk, but he'd give you a run for your money on crazy theories. It was a bit incoherent, but I managed to make out something about the mafia trying to get rid of Mayor Patean and take over the running of the town themselves. Quite amusing. I mean, what could possibly interest the mob in this out of the way little backwater? "There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known."

Liquid - Thanks for ruining my patented first day, first 4 post mafia detection system. The mindless drivel at the beginning of the day normally catches at least one mafia player. I agree with water_moon here, day 3, if you are unaccounted for and still alive, you shall be lynched.
ricrestoni - Welcome to the insanitorium. The joke in your sig should be enough for a mod kill if nothing else.
sint - Meaningless 3 post lynch vote is meaningless. Hope you have more insight later in the day.
jrla - Suck up much? How about a definitive answer? You would only be able to investigate one person on night one, not your 4 greatest mafia players in the world.
skiffcz - Welcome aboard to you also. Liq likes to be a leader, the question is he leading the town to safety or to slaughter? As w_m stated, normally by day 3 we know which.
noodle - For whatever reason, head of my townie list.
goltar - Nothing out of the ordinary. Really no content to judge, except that posting no content is bad for the town
water_moon - Really a pure admin post. I will await more content.
bob - typical early day bob post. Again, I will await your more detailed end of day post.
jason - Lolwhat?? I truly hope you are not some reporter role and threw the name of the doc out in the open on day 1!!!!
Anyway, those are my day 1, 2am in the morning, insomniatic thoughts.
I think I will stick with my first 4 post theory. So, which out of Liquid_Evil, ricrestoni, sint and jrlafrance should we go for?

Waiting will several people post, so he can "commentate" on others. Always careful to wait to post, so that he can "pick apart" others, but never brave enough to step up to the plate early for fear of saying something "wrong". Give it up dude, you're not gonna get my goat this game. If you want a answer, I'll give it...I would investigate LE. He has a unique insight into what happens, and what people say. I mentioned to noodle after last round, that LE is the Mafia guru from his post quoting all of noodle's posts, and pointing out how insubstantial they all were. IMO, LE is the biggest attribute/threat in this mind game. As for your post, could you post something helpful? If you were the doctor, who would you have saved on night one (if it were allowed)? Yourself, or someone else?

To answer your question first: If I were the doc, I would save myself on night one to make sure I was around for night 2.
Can you not see the forest for the trees? My post is not helpful? I just gave my thoughts on everyone who has posted in the game thus far. A lot more helpful than your "Oh, you are such great mafia players, please don't lynch me post." Pathetic to say the least.
As far as me being predictable and waiting for others to post. A little insight for you, it is currently 3:30 AM, I am about to walk out the door to work. As I have to work so early, I went to bed early, 6:30 PM here. I apologize to you for my work schedule this week.
vote:jrlafrance
Personal attacks aside, saying that I am not 'brave' enough to post early is really saying "Look at me, I am townie, I post early because its dangerous". I ain't buying it Sammy.

sint: why jason and why so early in morning? You had bad night and you are not able to sleep? ;D is jason your neighbour? @l_E: it is some system in your questions beacuse I do not know why for exactly persons you have that questions e.g. for muzz:why nazz. why you asked exactly muzz for that skiffcz: if L_E is pro-town and you kill him who disclose murders and if he will be alive when murders kill him for having his work easier? he seems that know how to find somethink and if he is murder it will be hard @noleclub: it is necesary vote jrlfrance after this? I think that is not a best way for you when you ought to find murders if you are pro-town and no voting for your enemy in this thread (page)

Morning everyone:) Only one little question as for now:
@jason: Sint votes for you without an explanation and you reply with a RP text not containing an answer to that. Why didn't you respond and what do you actually think of this early vote?

I truly hope you are not some reporter role and threw the name of the doc out in the open on day 1!!!! This is the most suspicious post of the day. Seemingly helpful and protective of the town, but nothing more than confusing. I have reread Jason's post a couple of times and nothing made me think he gave the name of the Doc. In fact, all relevant info he gave was already spoken by someone, nothing more. I do not know if you had any bad intentions or not but if you had, your words are about to recoil back at you. Considering how experienced Jason is in these games, i do not thing anything he said was an 'accident'. We will soon see if the mind game he is playing is foul or fair. My post is not helpful? I just gave my thoughts on everyone who has posted in the game thus far. Which part of your post was helpful exactly? IMO, LE is the biggest attribute/threat in this mind game. I completely agree with the above comment, Liq is in fact very dangerous for both the mafia (hence he should be NK'ed the first day) and town (he should live at most three days before lynching). However none of my two proposals take place due to the risk involving the action. In none of the games i played liq was lynched (as far as i remember; all those games people were again saying he should be lynched by day three) even if he wasn't touched my the mafia, nor he was NK'ed the first night. It was just lucky for the town that he was towny in those games. What i am saying is that we should take the risk when/if the time comes. bassano: I know you have bad english and probably you just edited some spelling mistakes, but it says in the rules that no editing is allowed. If Ray forgives you for your first mafia game mistake, he will surely not forgive it again. Do not edit your post ever again in mafia games.

@ Nac - Now that I reread it, I believe he is implying that he is a doctor as in highly educated due to the random number generator theory. Thinking in the shower helps I guess.
As far as helpful, I have laid out my thoughts on everyone who has posted thus far. Thinking out loud so to say.
@ bassano - Yes I believe the vote is valid. It sparks discussion and allows us to gauge allegiance. Early voting leads to more discussion. Waiting until end day to put votes out there allows for an easy mafia lynch train. Early votes such as sint's I view as meaningless and pretty much ignore. I have stated my reasons for my vote.
I do not like the way jrla was attacking me. His logic is flawed. If being 'predictable' and posting my current feelings to 'commentate' on others is mafia, then where does that leave bob? Bob does the same every game, it is expected. Ditto for most of the regulars here. Pretty much everyone keeps the same posting style game to game. Trying to turn that onto me is just lame and reeks of trying to start an early lynch train on me.

Yet you have answered with over 4 lines of empty text. *takes notes into his notes* I must say that someone working at the Trumpet and Bugle really has their finger on the pulse. They always seem very up to date with the happenings of the last few hours in the morning edition. Much more so than those idiots at the Herald and Tribune. Indeed. I always wonder ... Early votes such as sint's I view as meaningless It is meaningless... unless its not meaningless. vote sint@le: Im so sorry to bother you with my lesserness again, but I have enjoyed our last conversation way too much to resist. And of course, I love stupid questions. Is sint a mafia?

Date: Tue 25th November 22:12:31 +1000 To: boris@villagemail.com From: jason@villagemail.com Subject: doctorates
Hey mate, just wondering if you remember how doctorate degrees work overseas? I'm pretty sure they don't just have the cover-all Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) like we do, but I can't for the life of me recall what the exact system is.
cheers mate,
Jason

*more grumbling at preview button and scripts in general* @ goltar- Come now, simply everyone loves my style. All seriousness aside, how finely tuned is your spouse radar? I wouldn't say everyone loves your style. It's always grated on me, even though I'll happily admit that it works. You're just too abrasive, and since we're bringing water_moon up, she really can't stand it. She's threatened to try to lynch you with the least little reason several times in the past. As for my spouse radar, it's working (though it's never 100% trustworthy, she is a woman), but I'm trying to keep it out of the thread. Can't say anything about out of my thoughts though. Early votes such as sint's I view as meaningless It is meaningless... unless its not meaningless. vote sintEverything is meaningless unless it's not meaningless. It could be that sint is our cop and has found a mafia role. It could be just a pure random vote. I'll give sint a bit longer to tell us why before I get too concerned, it is Day 1 and random votes are quite popular.

I can unvote any time anyway, can I not? P.S. Sint is a math teacher, did you know that? They dont do random

Sint - Any particular reason for the vote on Jason so early? Did he have something against naz that I'm unaware of (or the other way around)? sint: oh,and .. why so eager to vote? Im curious, too... sint: why jason and why so early in morning? Two words: Generate Discussion. Unvote JasonOut of the three I guess goltar should've known better, but he's ok. --- So, skiffs, why do you question my vote and then later vote for me without either a) waiting for me to reply or b) give any other reasoning? --- (the same is also usually true for Sint) I think you are forgetting I'm a newbie on these forums too and haven't participated in the last couple of round on D2forums either. I guess my early playstyle on the SPF would give comparable results, but I'd say different right now. --- sint - Meaningless 3 post lynch vote is meaningless. Hope you have more insight later in the day. And your post is what? I'm with Jrla and Nac here that your post is as much meaningless as seeming to get on the good side by ''giving opinions on other but not actually saying anything''. I also loved how you first drew everybody's attention to Jason mentioning the doc, but then trying to say it was nothing afterwards. Pointing out a (mention of a) town role, either by slip up or just mentioning it is [glow=red,2,300]ALWAYS[/glow] suspicious. Suspicion top three: nolecub skiffcz LE Townie top three: zefimas jason (I dislike the typing though.. oh well) nacruno vote nolecubps. P.S. Sint is a math teacher, did you know that? They dont do random OWNED IN THE FACE GG! ;D

Question to the regulars: To continue on the subject of Jason (even more because his previous answer was some more roleplaying ), is it possible for a role to force someone into roleplaying? (hidden role maybe?)
