JMich: Let me first point out that on
post 559 I say that having Krypsyn do a day vig only confirms him as day vig. Your next post still considers Krypsyn town.
But no, feel free to say I call you out much later.
OK, right.
So I at first thought it will confirm him as town and later I realised he probably is not town but neutral. And that makes me satan or what?
It doesn't change the fact that we can use it no matter his alignment and that vig shot is very unlikely for scum.
JMich: At MYLO/LYLO? Finding as much evidence as possible about the attacker. Then let the others decide.
At not MYLO/LYLO? With flubbucket's proposed defense from his first (or was it second) game. Do nothing. Give the scum enough rope to hang himself.
So I did what you presented as option no. 2 but because we are at mylo I should have instead tried to find evidence against you to prove you are scum for once mentioning that there are 3 players with killer name?
M'kay... I guess.
JMich: So you are asking us to vote for vigging. I do agree that we should have a vigging, but I'd rather have Krypsyn decide for himself. Main reason for that is that I'm still unsure whether Krypsyn is scum or not, and having players suggest someone to kill does allow any scumbuddies to point fingers and say "Kill him, it doesn't give us much information, it only verifies you as town."
So because you think he could be mafia you want him to decide target himself instead of going with consensus of 6 players, 4 of them non-mafia?
How is mafia choosing his shot himself better than carefully picked target by all players?
JMich: How do you verify that the player wore blue pants when he did the kill? Was it when the kill is done or when the kill is submitted?
Sorry, my bad.
I meant if
target wears blue pants.
I apologize, this shouldn't happen.
JMich: As for arguing game mechanics, I'd like to point out that the last quote of yours is basically saying that because so far you haven't seen any such game mechanics, such game mechanics cannot exist. Is that appeal to tradition or appeal to common practice?
What about lynching the mod? Do game mechanics allow you to do that? Would not lynching the mod mean that it's harder for scum to win, since for this game the mod was a townie?
Or is it possible that Zchinque's game follows Zchinque's rules, and not the standard ones?
Common sense and experience.
Lynching the mod? I guess mechanics would allow it to me if it didn't happen already. I don't follow.
Call me naive but this is game of forum mafia and I somehow expect it to follow basic rules of forum mafia games. Like consistency in player targeting and stuff.
I know, I know. Silly me, I should expect exact opposite. It makes every game easier.
Anyway, on more serious note, if what you are trying to dispute was true, then it would be the extreme case of bastard moddery and that's something what shouldn't happen and you can't count with it at all. It would mean we are playing game without roles and it is kind of hard to do. It is not something players should take as possibility when they are trying to explain what is happeneing in game and it is much more sensible to expect that game is within some boundaries and actions can be explained by normal means.
Taking bastard mod as probable explanation to events certainly does not help town and it is way to dismiss any accusation.
