I don't think there's much to gain from talking about it. Ultimately it will be up to potential night actions to decide how to respond to it.

I swear if GAFia kills another child...
Anyways, I'm always for the D1 lynch. I don't think I've played with Xam before so I can't really comment on his past playstyle.
One interesting thing about this game to me, compared to my previous ones, is that any potential neutrals definitely need to die for town to win. I usually find myself defending them (to a certain extent, at least), but I guess that won't fly here.

Sure, I doubt she will die tonight, but as soon as we have an outed pr and our protectors need to choice between protecting the pr or scrafty, she will be in danger.
I kind of want to nip this in the bud as I don't think that scum would target scrafty in the early game, certainly not n1, she's confirmed to have no powers and I think scum would probably prefer to try their luck in the unknowns, hoping to hit a PR.

I remember when Time didn't protect Burbeting n4 in Woof 2
Good times
They could also achieve their win condition and leave the game that way,assuming that they aren't a serial killer or something like that.
they're all child-killing games kark, one way or another.
even serial killers have had limited kill win conditions in the past. I assume they would be removed upon completion.

We all know what rule 34 is. I didn't need to spell it out.

Why Zubz? Weird.
Im all in favor of a Day 1 Lynch. It's ridiculous not to. I'm not going to blind vote now but I will have a vote by the end of the day.

Ok, bossman
This guy didn't:
I wasn't saying they all did, simply that there's a precedent.
I know, and I think everyone agreed that his win condition was way to hard anyway, I just wanted to post an awesome revolver ocelot GIF

Why not? Any reason for it being "weird?"

I'll probably bandwagon my vote with whoever ScraftyDevil chooses since they're confirmed blue and it's day 1.
Hey, I'm no Dr. Henry Killinger, at least not in this game.

The tag is literally highlight. As in [ highlight] but minus spaces.

Use highlight tags with .highlight.Test./highlight. but replace . with [ or ] accordingly
Wut? Instead of making your own decisions you are going to follow someone that doesn't have any more information than you do? That's dumb.

Don't know how I feel about this. Voting for whoever Scrafty votes for would be a pretty easy way for a scum member to justify their vote. We know that Scrafty doesn't have an informational advantage, so while she is definitely town, she's still got a pretty big chance of picking a town member.
yeah, I mean I can see how it's a good way to make sure you're not being led by mafia yourself but if scrafty is being led by mafia then gg and as matt said it's pretty easy to hide as scum with a voting strategy like that.

You went dead silent when someone confronted you for this post and asked you why you found it so weird/concerning.
man, I was going to give him some more time :/

Eh, like 95% of my mafia experience comes from playing Epic Mafia and if this was Epic Mafia, everyone else would self-vote and the one blue would hammer the kill. While I can't guarantee that Scrafty will pick a mafia member, I can be sure that they are not going to intentionally pick someone who's not mafia and that's good enough for me on day 1.
Of course if someone is acting suspicious as fuck, they'll probably get my vote. However, I don't think anyone is going to be that stupid on day 1, but if someone wants to prove me wrong, feel free.

True, I was hasty and assumed he was still keeping up with the thread. He could have left for a bit of time after that post. But w/e.

But you should know that you're not scum (unless you are), so why can't you trust your own judgement on who to vote for?
Day 1 for me is a day you can look back to when you have more information later to look for weird behavior that could indicate people having more information than us. Just following the confirmed townie gives us fuck all to work with.

I agree on the Xam thing, but I'm not going to vote for him just yet.

You mean the thing about him being a good day 1 lynch candidate because of his anti town plays even when he is town? Even as one of the people who was voting on him, I don't agree with that.

Because the last time I made an accusation against someone on day 1, they got lynched and ended up being the town armorer. Town also ended up losing that game.
That's not to say we should stop talking, let Scrafty pick someone, and then lynch that person. We should still call out suspicious shit and make accusations, but ultimately I feel the best strategy is to let Scrafty be the one who chooses who gets lynched.
The problem I have with Day 1 and 2 is that mafia can easily float on by just being inactive and just make up some excuse on Day 3, cause everyone is too scared to lynch an inactive in case they flip town power role. Day 3 + is where all the meat of this game is.
Oh sorry; I didn't notice I was challenged on it and didn't have much to say, so I went to go play Civ. I just thought it seemed suspiciously collaborative, y'know? Presumably scum would want to start a bandwagon on someone innocent early, rather than run the risk of town getting lucky. /shrug
seems like a lazy observation just to have something to say. Scum opening with two early votes on xam seems pretty highly unlikely to anyone who stops to think about it.
And scrafty her reads where way better? No, she makes just as many mistakes as you. Just because you fucked up once, doesn't mean you have to ignore your own suspicions and follow someone else. That would make you kinda useless to town.
Also, I doubt scum will stay silent for two days and then suddenly get active, that is to obvious.
Won't deny either of those facts. But it seemed mildly suspicious, so I asked to see if there were a better explanation. And I learned something from the response: apparently xam has a known tendency of erratic behavior. So I'd call my post a win, despite its laziness.
