DuD Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 That last line interpretation actually made me lol. I wasn't blocked I don't think, if I was it as pointless anyway as my role renders me useless on occasions.. lady night being one of them.
Sheikah Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 (edited) Is the night when you do nothing a cooldown of some sort to an ability? I only ask because Mafia members will occasionally not use an ability, instead opting to do something else more sinister.

NB - note my qualm was with posts that state "I got nothing" - the very kind of post from which nothing, even subtle, can be discerned. Edited October 10, 2012 by Sheikah Automerged Doublepost
DuD Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 No, it's to do with my side condition, that (I'm not certain when saying this) if I don't complete means I will lose even if the town does win. I have some control as to when I do it, but someone's actions last night has hindered me. There is reason within the thread for you to trust me, so I'm not going to reveal what it is I'm doing.
Sheikah Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 It's true that there's reason within this thread to trust you, but that could also be interpreted as 'so why isn't he dead yet?' sort of questioning in terms of the Mafia not picking up on it (most Mafia contain at least 1 competent player from my past experience). P.S. I'm not trying to be aggressive here, merely trying to eke out information so that we're not a few days down the line with next to no clue about anyone and about to be town killed. You're actually one of the better players here in terms of actual discussion contribution, DuD.
Jimbob Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 I targetted Dohnut last night, but didn't get anything back during the night phase.
Cube Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 To the guys saying you have nothing, here are some of the things you could answer (you do have something): Who did you target? Were you successful? What happened to you? I was successful. Nothing happened to me.
Sheikah Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 I targetted Dohnut last night, but didn't get anything back during the night phase. Does your power not return info or do you were suspect you were roleblocked?
Jimbob Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 Does your power not return info or do you were suspect you were roleblocked? The first night when i targetted Peeps, i got info back that he had to disobey someone. But for some reason, i didn't get back anything with dohnut. Maybe i was blocked, who knows. Have to see if anyone comes out with that info.
Jonnas Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 What I think is, we have way too many roleblockers for my liking. Like, lots of powers failing an' shit. Jimbob, you only gave two targets when there have been 3 nights. Who was the 3rd one?
Sheikah Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 @Jon Dedede your contribution has been next to nothing. Speak up.
Tales Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 Tales, you saying being roleblocked means you have nothing doesn't make sense to me. Saying you were roleblocked IS something. NB - when we are saying 'something' here are you on the same page as me? As in something = information. "Something" as in information that is actually useful. The alternative to saying nothing is a dozen posts like Cube's :p
Sheikah Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 But you're obviously not going to role reveal yet so by that logic no one but information gatherers would have anything 'useful'. It's all useful, we can use this to piece stuff together. 'I got nothing' may as well be replaced with 'I'm possibly Mafia' or 'feigned activity post'.
Marcamillian Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 If "something" an no thing.. no hurt sayin so. @ReZourceman - been on the down low?
Tales Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 'I got nothing' may as well be replaced with 'I'm possibly Mafia' or 'feigned activity post'. That implies that people who do post "info" are town.
Marcamillian Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 Hell yeah brother. Only ones wanna keep town in the dark be the mafia... ...dawg
Tales Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 Hell yeah brother. Only ones wanna keep town in the dark be the mafia... ...dawg I'm not disagreeing that staying quiet is both hurtful to the town and suspicious. My point is that thinking only mafia stay quiet(or is more likely to) one also assume that active people are town, which is dangerous path in my opinion. It's easy to appear town by just posting tons of posts, but which have nothing of value. Not that I suspect him, but take Sheikah, gave us nothing of value and appear super duper active. In my opinion, he is as likely as mafia as that Dedede guy. Personally, and this may just be me, but I always have an extra eye on people being "too" town. Sorry for creating a discussion out of it, my points don't always come out clear :p
Marcamillian Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 It's all good. Ways I sees it, long as mafia sayin' summin as small as "I was not successful" and lyin, they paintin emselves in the corner they gnna get got in.
Sheikah Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 That implies that people who do post "info" are town. No, no, I never said this. It implies that they might be town or they might not be. The crucial things is that they say something you can scrutinise (Mafia wouldn't like this), or use to piece together facts. If you say nothing or a useless 'got nothing', there is nothing to scrutinise. This is not useful to town. Not that I suspect him, but take Sheikah, gave us nothing of value and appear super duper active. In my opinion, he is as likely as mafia as that Dedede guy. Personally, and this may just be me, but I always have an extra eye on people being "too" town. Sorry for creating a discussion out of it, my points don't always come out clear :p Um, you know this to be untrue. Dedede has next to no presence and has what, 3 posts in his life? He's just sailing by and apparently you're fine with this. mmkay... I revealed I was jailkept N1, and whether or not I reached my targets or not for every night so far. I'm also the only person to try to get people not giving town-friendly responses to actually talk.
The Peeps Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 I was roleblocked last night by the same person who roleblocked me on night 1. If anyone knows which character from the show would be described as an idiot, please let me know. If anyone knows which player has that character, please say so. If anyone knows someone that targeted me night 1 or last night, please say so. As I'm quite clearly town, there should be no reason for a townie to roleblock me therefore that person is mafia.
Nintendohnut Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 I was pretty much joking earlier. I was completely successful in my night's work but I was mostly just making fun of Jimbob. However, I'm not really willing to get involved in a big argument about whether or not people should reveal information. I'd very much like to hear from people who haven't said anything so far today.
Tales Posted October 10, 2012 Posted October 10, 2012 Um, you know this to be untrue. Dedede has next to no presence and has what, 3 posts in his life? He's just sailing by and apparently you're fine with this. mmkay... It was a...the English metaphor that escapes me. No harm meant in any case. I'd like Dedede to show up very much as well. Peeps, I assume there was something in the pm that assure you it's the same player? Weird to roleblock the same person in the first three nights no?
