Simpsons Mafia

[Mayor Quimby]

Good evening, uh, my fellow citizens of Springfield, this is your, uh, mayor reporting from the Bahamas. My flight was late so I was unable to present you the, uh, events of last night personally. From now on I will be, uh, running reporting such events, tallying votes and answering questions from the, uh, Bahamas.

If you have a question about a character I can do my best to figure out which particular citizen you are talking about, but don't count on it being specific. There is a website ( http://www.snpp.com ) you can go to that has lots of information on, uh, characters and our fair city and its citizens, in particular it covers the shenanigins of the odd Simpson family. Though it might not be entirely reliable in the context of the, uh, present situation (Handsome Dan Translation: the site has lots of useful information, but a some of it is moot, and some things may be different in this game).

That said here are the votes so far:

3 sketchwick (Tyenar, Antrax, The Cheshire Man)
1 Internet Stranger (LoopyDog/Chienfou)
1 pikachamp (Vinny)
1 quercitron (Sketchwick)
1 sweetwater (Mike_Amok)
1 Damelon (Internet Stranger)
1 Dread Pirate Westley (Eykir)
1 Cadmium (Damelon)

14 VOTES TO LYNCH

No, uh, Deadline as of yet.

------------------
Quimby: Demand? Who are you to demand anything? I run this town. You're just a bunch of low-income nobodies!
Assistant: [sotto voce] Uh, election in November. Election in November...
Quimby: What?? Again?? This stupid country.

OK, [b]vote: sketchwick[b].

Antrax is trustworthy in this game...

-JEEP

[sketchwick]

Dear me, I've been target by The Bellwether again. And this time he is practically a confirmed innocent. Well, let's look, why is he voting me. Ah, it seems my method for picking my first vote was BS. I agree. Does that mean I should jump on my own bandwagon? Nope, I know I'm innocent. Hmmm. How to convince Antrax to pick on someone else without helping the aliens, the mafia, or Snake. Hmmm.

I don't know. Maybe I'll study IS's posts, he seems to scream bloody murder and that works. Of course this game IS was under suspiscion due to RL factors and he game a RL defense. All of which I hate. I think it sucks rocks I am forced to think about things such as WHEN a player was replaced.

sketchwick

[quercitron]

OMGUS: Vote: sketchwick

Yeah, this won't help you, but it will help your bandwagon, and we need one first day.

[Damelon]

Well, at the risk of not having to endure 15 pages of rabid posts by Sketchwick I'll

Vote: Sketchwick

[LoopyDog]

ok, lets join the bandwagon Unvote IS, Vote Sketchwick

[sketchwick]

It is not in the town's interest to lynch me. This is my last post on the matter. I apologize to anyone on the town's side that thinks I should have claimed my role and saved myself. Perhaps my course of action is not THE BEST thing *I* can do for THIS town. It is, in fact a metagame decision. Some day I actually will be mafia, and I cannot allow Antrax, Master Bellwether, to target me day 1 to get me to claim a role. Yes I understand it is very useful to see who jumps on my bandwagon, be I innocent or not. But rather than let the wagon get to 12 votes or so and THEN tell you I won't claim a role, at whcih point I will prolly be lynched because bandwagons don't seem to dissappear for no reason (although I think it would be better for the town to bandwagon several people on day one) so people will think at that point just to lynch me because we have to lynch SOMEONE. Anyway, that someone should not be me, so I'm telling you now before the bandwagon gets too big. I will continue to help any other badnwagons that aren't for myself, macros, Antrax, or anyone else who claims an innocent role, but I will no longer defend myself.

Again, I apologize to this town if I do get lynched, but you will thank me later if you are ever mafia with me.

sketchwick

[Tyenar]

Wow, great defense, you almost make me want to help you when you are mafia.

I don't agree with the whole idea of random voting. You're not going to create a bandwagon with a random vote and without a reason.

I totally disagree with this. On the first day, there's absolutely nothing to go on. This means you have to begin with random voting before anything happens. And even if you think you have a valid reason for voting, it's still random voting. Only when someone claims to be a cop or something and found someone guilty, it's not random.

Anyway, I'll vote: Damelon for using PRV. I guess this means previous random vote. Suddenly this random vote doesn't seem so random anymore.

People who think they know everything really annoy those of us that do.

[Macros]

firstly, antrax, it was a joke, hence the

secondly, thatsd the worst logic for not lynching anyone EVER sketchwick, man claim a role!

i agree with cadmium, but still not voting on it till damelion responds, if puhed, i'll join the sketch bandwagon

[Werebear]

Hmm... I feel like voting skechwick because that "I'm not claiming a role because I don't want future games to be compromised" is cool, but also a dodge if I ever heard one. At the very least, I'll aim a PoS (Paw Of Suspicion): sketchwick

Werebear

[quercitron]

You know, sketch, if you're ever Mafia you could always just kill Antrax first night, thus preventing him from making you reveal your role first day.

Or you could stop worrying about it. You're not that important or vocal that Antrax will always make you claim a role first thing just because.

[Antrax]

[quercitron]

[/sarcasm]

[Macros]

heh

[Antrax]

Querci, you're talking to Sketchwick. I wouldn't bet much on him being able to understand the sarcastic undertone of your post. I've been burned badly enough in SW2.
Antrax

------------------
I'm cool, really

[Damelon]

Cadmium, Macros, anyone else who needs their hand held when it comes to logic:
I switched from Cadmium (PRV) to Sketchwick because a bandwagon was forming. It looked like we might actually get through the first day in under a month. Oh well. When I decided to encourage Sketchwick's rationality by unvoting him I went back to my previous vote. As Cadmium had not said anything since my original vote for him(?) I saw no reason to consult the RNG again. Also, since he used crap logic when he did I'm not going to unvote him now. Why do you fear one vote so much that you have to use Crap Logic?

[The Cheshire Man]

Ouch!

OMG, You Suck! Vote: Eykir

I do not have a crush on Elayne. I'm infatuated with her.

[Werebear]

Reply 100! Well, since it seems to be a matter of voting someone and watching them squirm, I'm going to offically Vote : Sketchwick for not even attempting to placate the crowd holding torches and rope. And if you are town, and get yourself lynched, then... what was that phrase again, Dread Pirate Westley?

Werebear

[Dread Pirate Westley]

Oh My God, You Suck. Used to indicate that a vote is purely retaliatory.

[jeep]

DPW, I think you missed the point.

[Eykir]

I know I suck, DPW Good thing there are no vampires in this game, or I'd be getting lynched.

I'm not jumping on the Sketchwick bandwagon just yet. After all, it's Antrax going after him. I trust Antrax about as far as I could throw him (he's military, I'm a wuss, get the picture?)

[Soothsayer]

random vote (not wanting to joni the badwagon... yet)

vote: werebear

[Antrax]

Uhh, Eykir? I'm sort of proven innocent this time around. You could doubt the move in general, but I'm not misleading anyone this time around.

[Eykir]

Antrax: I don't trust your move to lynch Sketchwick. I know you are innocent, but I don't believe in this bandwagon. I'll stay out of it.

[Werebear]

Eykir, I don't think it's the best thing I've ever seen either. but here's my logic.
1) It is better for your role to be known if you're town than to be lynched.
2) He has not posted his role.
3) If he's mafia, then he's not bothering to try and get out of a lynch, and that's fine with me.
4) If he's town and he's TOLD us his role, and we lynch him, it's OUR fault... but..
5) If he's town and just didn't bother telling us his role, then it's HIS fault. And I personally do not wish to be responsible for lynching a town member.

That make sense? And I'd suggest he post his role PDQ if he doesn't wish to be lynched. If he does, then the ball's in OUR court.

Werebear

[Antrax]

My sentiments exactly.

[Macros]

fine, the bandwagoni has spoken
vote sketchwick

[sketchwick]

unvote quercitron, vote soothsayer

for being slightly more likely to be mafia than the 24 people I suspect. I think that's 2 votes for sooth, go bandwagon, go!

sketchwick

[sketchwick]

I hate to go against what I said, but I've decided I should give Antax more games to target me first day for no reason.

I'm Homer Simpson

sketchwick

[JDTAY]

unvote: sketchwick
vote: soothsayer

go bandwagon, go!

[Internet Stranger]

Homer or not, you probably should be lynched for breaking mafia etiquette rules.

Mafia Etiquette Rule #36

When claiming a role, its in good manners to explain what the role does. Blatant lies would do, just fill in your personal relevations in this manner:

(Role) - (What roles does)

It just makes you look mondo suspicious to not say what Homer does.

Cool, thanks IS, where can I read all the other roles? I thought it would be better to wait for any fake Homers to denounce me. (shrug)
