IN HELL!

Unvote Vote Mandy

Unfortunately, a later post pretty much toppled the reasoning behind my suspicion. However there is no harm in throwing out ideas. After all, the road to truth is filled with potholes. So, here goes:

I was suspicious of Colton after this post:

vote mandy cause I've never played with ya

Normally, when someone slings a vote&jab towards you like Safari had thrown towards Colton, the natural response is to sling one reight back at them. Since it's the first vote of Day 1, you are allowed to have a bit of fun without instantly being accused of revenge voting. Thus, Colton's vote against me, as opposed to him voting Safari and calling him a mynock or something, looked a bit unatural to me, like he is making a conscious effort not to do anything remotely scummy.

However, it was Safari himself, who offered an explanation for Colton not wanting to vote him back:

Let's see if Colton has learned anything.

vote Colton

What does Colton need to learn?

Vote Mandy for telling me what to do!

Not to freak out when somebody votes him. So far, he's doing pretty good.

Of course, I haven't played with Colton, so I don't know if he really has an overreaction problem. So, let's ask the new players, who probably played with Colton before:

Paging Cowboyz and Captainwalrus!!!

I presume that you two had played a few recent games with Colton. Given your experience playing with him, in your opinion, does Safari's post quoted above make sense to you guys?

[captainwalrus]

Yeah, he over-reacts, but not that much, and I don't know if he does it when he is scum or not.

[mandalorian2298]

Thanks, I just wanted to know if Safari's explanation for voting Colton is matches the facts.

So, back on square 1 ...

Colton isn't posting excessively with nothing to add either which is good, I wonder if he's trying to hide something...

I don't really have much. I don't see anything suspicous

[Serbia]

Vote Serbia, for I am his lyncher!!1!1one!

Dammit!
OMGUS!!?!1!!1! VOTE: FRENCH-FIEND!!1!1!!11!!

He's French, he's French, and above all - HE IS THE ONE WHO NEEDS TO BE VOTED FIRST AS DICTATED BY THE PEOPLE OF THE SUN

(it's coming back around again)

[Serbia]

The above vote IS blue. Don't argue.

I think it is suspicious that the post after his accusation is your response. Perhaps you are frequently checking in because you need to quickly handle any accusation, as you are scum.

[Serbia]

Of course, I haven't played with Colton, so I don't know if he really has an overreaction problem. So, let's ask the new players, who probably played with Colton before:

I don't recall ever playing colton before, but I can tell you he has a general overreaction problem, so I'm sure that shows itself in mafia as well.

[nagerous]

I do believe, sir Mod, that I unvoted and voted that sneaky no-good mandy. This vote is extremely important. Actually, not really Unvote.

FOS people starting yet another day 1 colton wagon

[F1fth]

Oh, I forgot blue, now and before. Silly me. Unvote Vote Mandy

Unvote Ok, I'm happy now.

[mandalorian2298]

So, you think it is a good thing, but you are suspicious of him because of it.

If we add the fact that you were, by your own admission, trying to bait him into overreacting with your first vote, it looks to me like you working real hard to provide the Town with a reason to lynch Colton, not because you think that he is scum, but because you you consider him to be lynchable.

Unvote
Vote Safariguy

Here's the deal. I know colton to be generally very defensive. Once you pressure him, he starts throwing out the OMGUS and scum bandwagon defenses. Now, if he were to do that this game, I would conclude that I cannot get a read on what he may be because he does that in all the games (wercool really helps in provoking an action). Since he didn't, I was a bit suspicious. Since we all know how active a poster he is, the continued lack of posting and vote changing by him also signals a departure from his normal M.O. Now, this to me means he's being very careful with what he says as he didn't want to draw attention to himself as a bandwagoner or accidentally dropping a scumtell. Or, he could be getting better at mafia and all this is moot. The was I see it, colton is acting differently this game, and I'm noting that as something to follow up on in subsequent days.

[MountainLion]

Where are PCM and Cowboyz?

Serbs is looking questionable to me...

Of course, I haven't played with Colton, so I don't know if he really has an overreaction problem. So, let's ask the new players, who probably played with Colton before:

I don't recall ever playing colton before, but I can tell you he has a general overreaction problem, so I'm sure that shows itself in mafia as well.

Serbia, I believe this question was already answered in this post which was before yours:

Yeah, he over-reacts, but not that much, and I don't know if he does it when he is scum or not.

Then Mandy says thanks, seemingly satisfied with captain's input (also before your post):

Thanks, I just wanted to know if Safari's explanation for voting Colton is matches the facts.

So, back on square 1 ...

Why did you feel the need to answer Mandy's question a second time?

Also, you say you "don't recall ever playing colton before," and yet you still have input on him?

Unvote

FOS Serbia

[pancakemix]

I'm here, I've posted. Cowboyz, on the other hand, disappeared into thin air and wasn't around to finish WWII. MOD, take that as your warning that a replacement may be necessary.

[MountainLion]

Ah yes, I forgot PCM stood for pancakemix...

[colton24]

unvote for now

[Koesen]

Vote Count:

Pancakemix: 1 (Nagerous)
Happy2seeyou: 1 (Talapus)
Colton: 2 (Safariguy, Iliad)

Serbia: 2 (Captainwalrus, ga7)
Ga7: 2 (Serbia, LSU)

9 to lynch. Deadline approximately seven days from now.

Cowboyz opens all of his PMs but so far hasn't replied. I'll try one last time, and if that doesn't work, I'll look for a replacement. If anybody has particular preferences in that department, I'm willing to take suggestions. If not, I'll just make it an open invitation.
