It's no secret that I'm very often a late voter and therefore I tend to see this behavior as best (: : really, I act in a manner I find okay). Still... based on the costumes and the role-playing I find it a good idea to discuss matters like this once more. So we get it out there: What is color, fun and jokes - and what is "real" play-style and hard-corn mafia? tho isn't that part of the point of a costume game, to play "in character"? :: Takes off one of his shoes and holds it at arm's length from this body. :: :: Plugs his nose, looking disdainfully at his shoe. ::

I'm just wondering what "hard-corn" mafia is, and how it relates to what is affixed to Marcel's shoe.

Catching up Wow, I really miss Sheldon. You're really messed up in the head, dude. I just wanted to know what the vote was based on. And why it was placed. That's why I asked. :: Makes a Scissors snip snip snip gesture :: :: Pinches his nose and points to his shoes :::: Puts hand to forehead to act as a visor, and searches for " Meeko " :: My early day 1 vote will probably find another guest at the party, if and when " Meeko " shows himself. At that point, what he as to say will go a LONG way in changing my mind.. or not.

Ah, now that's better. Well, this is going to be a fine party, isn't it? A little wine, some conversation, and just the right number of women to make things interesting. Isn't that so, Galadriel? Spendid ears you have on you, by the way, all furled and pink like ... Ahem yes, she is perhaps not so pleased at where I was going with that. An ingratiating smile might be in order, as if from a kindly uncle -- oh good, she is happy, she covers her mouth to hide her smile. A modest woman, then, the best kind, except for the others. I feel comfortable talking to you now that you're a man.

Hi guys, sorry I'm late. I was out last night doing some fishing on my boat.
I'm trying to get a handle on the costumes, and storyteller's idea is a good one that I'm going to follow.

Dr. Rajesh is not shaking any of Nordoms four hands. Curious George missed handshaking in his list. Nordom doesn't want to use invitation cards to spoil the party. Conclusions: Rajesh doesn't have town win condition or doesn't want to burn his hands again. George has a short term memory? Curious. Dude, the simpler conclusion is that I'm smart enough to learn from my mistakes

[ooc](<---This is from canon!)[/ooc] [eyes glow red]I assumed from the beginning that all the PMs would be varied, based on the role color being based on our rolename costumes. I anticipate having difficulty posting analysis using default personality, but thankfully, there's "duty mode" to fall back on. Anything with the red eyes will be coherent (well, will be intended to be coherent, since sometimes I'm incoherent on my own).[/eyes glow red] Look at me! I'm ODD! Pay attention to me!

Perhaps I picked the wrong game to join, or at least the wrong costume. I saw the costumes as BYOC, bring your own color, and the Mod would just be handing out the roles that he's balanced. It struck me as quite clean and efficient as an idea for the framework of a game. I was not expecting people to be posting in-character as if we all have some sort of posting restriction. As a player, while I appreciate well-written color, I tend not to pay much attention to it compared to the game, and while post-restrictions can be fun, I prefer them in moderation, if at all. If what I've gotten myself into is a game full of people who are each going to come up with and perform their own individual posting restrictions, with who knows what consistency, I just sounds like chaos to me, and certainly not conducive to finding scum.

If there are actual restrictions being applied, that changes things. And I hope those who don't have them take that into consideration when deciding how they're going to approach the game.

But we also have to make sure that votes and stuff like smudges or snuggling isn't allowed in the entire game due to "hey, I was just playing in character". Totally OOC -- I appreciate your position (though I assume you mean joke votes or something?), but my character is all ABOUT saying one thing and "saying" another -- smudges and snuggling in spades, basically. He's a deceptive character who due to a personal quirk of speaking his inner thoughts aloud is fooling no one (or is he?) That's part of why I chose the costume; I figured it would be fun. I hope I can make it clear enough what is seriously meant and what is just for giggles, and I'm not going to cry too many tears if I push it too far and get lynched for it, but I do intend to play the role the way I imagined, or there was no point in joining this game at all. So just so I'm clear. I will be playing mafia, just a little bit twisted. Perhaps I picked the wrong game to join, or at least the wrong costume. I saw the costumes as BYOC, bring your own color, and the Mod would just be handing out the roles that he's balanced. It struck me as quite clean and efficient as an idea for the framework of a game. I was not expecting people to be posting in-character as if we all have some sort of posting restriction.

If what I've gotten myself into is a game full of people who are each going to come up with and perform their own individual posting restrictions, with who knows what consistency, I just sounds like chaos to me, and certainly not conducive to finding scum. Rorschach's Journal, Day 1:The many babbling voices around me have raised in unison to declare themselves unfit to fill the roles they themselves chose. They are weak and have no stomach for the savagery and cruelty that await them in the Days to come. I have no patience for them and will not show them mercy if their time comes early. I will stand as my own voice. I am Rorschach. There is no other way.

Of course, you have to remember: People, including mafia people, are stupid. They will always believe a lie, especially when they are afraid it is the truth. Be mindful. **Rorschach makes a note of this in his journal**

Hrm... This person that calls herself Galadriel doesn't seem to notice that she is dressed provocatively for being in a game full of men. Perverted men, who would not think twice of raping an innocent woman. I think she is a wanton strumpet, sent to deceive and beguile the sturdiest of men. Sorry! Will try and remember preview in this game. Having been the mod has made me lazy And it would serve me well to keep an eye on her, for when she does slip, I will be there. mundane pointless is probably too strong a term. how about routine? vote story lynch all liars (or not) lynch lurkers (or not) don't hold grudges when to mass claim should we name claim (now this one shouldn't be applicable this go around) scum wouldn't do that what else did i miss? What do we do with people voting by random.org What do we think of joke-votes The Rules talk of possible recruitment - what do we think The difference between lurker and "not online"-players I know we talk about this all the time. But we have to start somewhere... This talk is pointless. We must go forth and hunt scum. It is our duty as honest and just citizens. And I will add that should anyone attempt to use such a device as random.org to vote, my vengeance will be swift and sure.

::: erases his vote ::: Unvote " Meeko " Blokey and I have talked about the Double Meeko issue in private. I received clarification on a few questions I had. I will not say anything else, suffice to say it is the reason for my Unvote. I will wait to see if this masked Meeko fulfills his obligation to participate in the hunt for Scum, as befits his name role. Should he fail, I will consider him less than equal and throw his worthless body to the wolves. In order to succeed he must play as "Meeko." But there can't be two Meekos. One cannot survive while the other lives. Hrm... where have I read that before?

I wouldn't worry about it too much, once everyone is done showing off their mating hats, we'll get down to the orgy. I mean hunting scum. What we need is a topic starter. How about unifying characteristics? Last game scum was scum because they wanted to keep their costumes forever. Any one have any theories? Also sometimes it's needed to prime the pump as it was. And I say prime away! For complaining about the lack of scum hunting while not actually contributing to the hunt. I read it as the "I can't tell who's scummy amongst all this noise!" kind of scenario. It looks impressive, but it doesn't actually get anything accomplished. vote Nakor the Blue Rider

I'm not complaining about a lack of scum hunting going on. If complaining is what I'm doing, it is about an apparent level of assumption going on that we're all somehow on the same page about the significance of the costumes. Am I the only one who wasn't aware that some people were apparently given restrictions? How many people also didn't play in or read the previous game? I don't have a restriction, so the safest thing to assume is that there are others who don't have one, and that we have a mixture of roles with and without restrictions playing in the game. That is what I'm now assuming. With that being said, it seems prudent to at least try to determine who is posting in-character voluntarily vs involuntarily. Am I alone in this interpretation?
