Okay..so holy shit I can't believe I read all 20 pages without a new post coming up. XD I pretty much have a good idea about what all is going on, but it is Christmas Eve, I'm tired, and I have a slight headache, so I'm not really in any condition to write a long/coherent post about my opinions on all of it. I probably won't post anything until after Christmas, since I'll be with my family, so Merry Christmas to all of you and goodnight!

Yay, discussion has slowed. Unfortunately, anything I could add has probably already been said and worded way better, plus I'm quite tired from Christmas stuffs. Quick rundown of whatever immediately comes to mind:

Still on no lynch, although FoS is slightly on Hunter and Alpha at the moment for reasons that've been stated time and time again over the past 20 pages. Probably silly on my part, but I'd rather not act before there's anything concrete in play ooor unless things really, really tip my suspicions. Maybe I'm being too naive. Oh well.

Also won't speak of amnesia 'til GmK sobers up.

Hopefully I'll be there for the next major discussion, and actually be able to get some word in. Probably will try to type up something more helpful tomorrow once I get some rest and read through the thread again proper.

And with that, Merry Christmas, sorry I don't have anything to contribute, and goodnight!

Not going to say anything more on the topic of amnesia until gmk confirms what is allowed and what isnt.
I already made a clarification on that, it was both in thread and is on the first page under the Clarifications section. That's all I as a host can say about it as well.

Use it as a tool to help you think, but not for confirming things, as per the usual PM mechanics rule.

I'm feeling a little sleepy still, but

I'm speaking because it can help determine roles, since you know, setup determines roles, and roles determine if you're with the town or not.
Yes, I understand what you mean, but unless you want to start analyzing every single bit of everything everyone's ever said about mafia games, there's really no way you can use amnesia mechanics to determine roles. They can still be literally anything, the amnesia roles are not restricted to one group of roles, so you can't really make anything out of them.

Of course, I acknowledge the possibility that there might be different forms of amnesia, which could mean my own theory about it is incorrect, but the way I see it, there's simply no way we can use it to determine anything.


Why I'm so strongly urging us to drop it is because in case you haven't noticed, there's a deadline in place. At this moment we have a little over 3 ½ days left, before the night hits, and I'd really like to get to some kind of a decision before that happens, since I'm still a strong supporter of a D1 lynch.

And here's a theory: you understand that we cannot use amnesia to actually determine much, but for some reason wish to delay discussion that could bring us closer to a lynch. Maybe it's because you're a mafia and see one of your buddies constantly in the limelight, maybe it's because you're a townie that thinks that No Lynch is the best option (in which case just voting No Lynch would be easiest), maybe you're a third party with god knows what motives.

Or maybe you really think that we can use amnesia to determine individual roles, in which case my question to you would be this: how can we use amnesia to determine individual roles and if you can't talk about it here because of PM mechanics, then how is it supposed to work anyway, if the rest of us don't know how it's gonna work?

Merry Christmas everyone, now for a post.

So far I don't really know what to make of this situation, although certain people seem scummy nobody stands out outrageously. So far,

Alpha: Hardclaimed alien randomly and wanted to be alive for another night for some reason.
Hunter: Aggressive jumpy discussion. Just his play-style though.
myusername: Even though this discussed on page 2 I don't believe the random 5 people had anything to do with his role seeing as he tagged somebody that wasn't in the game. He could've only needed 4 and just added a random person though.
Inactive people (Probably includes me): Could be a quiet mafia.

I'm generally bad at writing long posts (or any at all) so if anyone wants my input just tag me or something.

Eh, just two pages and not much to respond to. Given I only slept for four or so hours but ok.
it's just all this talk is giving mafia stuff to act upon. it would be best to end the day asap so they have less knowledge than they would if we keep talking
It's also giving the TOWN more knowledge to act on, and the mafia's going to act regardless of how much information it has. They're going to have all the information we're bringing up eventually anyway, so why bother postponing it? You're awfully excited for night to start.
I hypothesize that more aggressive and risky players are more likely to be non-town, while more passive and safe players are more likely to be town-sided.
That's... generally exactly the opposite of what I see. o-o At least I'm the opposite, but then some people change depending on alignment and some are the same whatever they are. I don't really think there's an accurate way to judge based on playstyle, unless you're comparing a person's current behavior to past behavior--and even that's not accurate all the time.

At this point I'm just curious as to...wait wait wait. it just struck me.
Whats with this alien bullcrap?
That has nothing to do with anything related to when we all were distributed our positions.

Why else was the question poised about 'do you have an item' this was a key question as to the structure of when our minds came back together.

Now I wonder where an alien can fit into this mix of attributes that one may recall. Nowhere did it say just simply interaction. You say your probes tell you nothing about a person, not even if they have been probed. This goes beyond the scope.

This isn't entirely pm mechanics but simply vaguely referring to them. Let me know if its not ok.

Well I can't see what your sentences meant. It sounds like you just put random words together in sentences, I have no idea what any of them said.

It might just be me but I fail to see where you explain the randomness and underpoweredness in that post. So could you explain again? Since I don't see it like that at all. I mean how is it random?
