Title: Day 4: PONG Mafia XXXVIII
Post by: NWR_DrewMG on October 16, 2009, 08:57:08 AM
On the third night, the voices of the paddles were heard loud and clear.  thatguy, was removed by force from the black and white landscape.  On his way out the door, he was heard screaming "Do you know who I am?!  I'm Crimson, the baddest paddle this side of the dotted line!  You'll all regret this!!"

The celebratory mood after discovering one of the vile mafia members was short lived, as Plugabugz, the "Tricky" Green Paddle, was found face down in the mud the next morning with quarters taped over his eyes.  A note was found on his body that read "Crimson's Revenge"

Results from Day 1:
Death by Vote: thatguy (mafia)
Death by Hit: Plugabugz ("Tricky" Green Paddle)

PONGERS
Mop_It_Up
UncleBob

Due to the weekend, we will have an EXTEND-O-DAY which runs through Saturday and Sunday.  Voting for Day 4 ends SUNDAY NIGHT at 11 PM CST.

No players are at risk of being eliminated for inactivity today.

There's a really good chance Stratos isn't mafia.

Thatguy voted for Stratos yesterday when my vote was still for Stratos (which would have tied it up at 3 to 3).  Since he and I were chatting via PM thatguy could have asked me to change my vote to anyone else with 1 vote against them (also tying it up at 3 to 3 when thatguy did the same) but he didn't--he chose to vote Stratos.

Why would a mafia henchman with no special power try to get another mafia member voted off (especially when the green paddle was still alive)?  It doesn't make sense.

Wow, what a pleasant surprise! While I was a little suspicious of thatguy, I wasn't ready to vote him out quite yet. Good call townies! :D

I'm not convinced on Stratos either... will have to look into this a little better.

edit: Looking Closer at the Data, an Agatha Christie Mystery Interlude

thatguy - 4
vudu - 3
Stratos - 2
nickmitch - 1
Mop_It_Up - 1

What can we learn from this?

Anything else?

Voting for Stratos when he was in no danger of getting voted out would be the perfect way to draw attention away from him.

Exactly, UB. That's one option. In other news, this game has a real "No Country for Old Men" vibe to it.*

* I have not even seen this movie, so take this statement as you will. :D

P.S. – What's up with all the random votes, Stogi? ???

Thatguy voted for Stratos. Why? He could've forced a tie by voting for vudu, which was his best shot at survival—not voting for someone with only one other vote.

When thatguy voted for Stratos, Stratos had two votes against him, not one.  I changed my vote to thatguy at the very last minute.  Until then, my vote was for Stratos.  thatguy thought he was forcing a 3 to 3 tie.

ALL TOWNIES WITH A ROLE LISTEN UP

I want you to contact me immediately. You have nothing to fear. I am a townie and I have proved it by sealing thatguy's fate. It was me who casted the final vote to put him away afterall.

Do this immediately.

Post by: stevey on October 16, 2009, 02:46:27 PM
Jugding from the fact that Thatguy was a powerless member to begin with, the reason he didn't try to tie the vote may have been to avoid the risk of killing Vudu. That means Vudu could very likely be the Black or Clear paddle.

I wouldn't.... You voted when it was too late to save him.

Post by: Stogi on October 16, 2009, 02:49:55 PM
How so?

It would have been a 3-3 tie without me (excluding the fact that Plugabugz used his power to **** over thatguy).

I started getting suspicious of Thatguy once Maxi got killed.

I was suspicious of Vudu because of his association with Thatguy, but he is defending me now and also may have been a victim of following Thatguy like I was.

I thought it odd how Thatguy didn't seem to mind me forcing the day two bandwagon to go from UncleBob to Dasmos. It was because he knew both were townies so either way he won something.

Fine I figure if I don't get any protection tonight I'll be dead. Yes I am the investigator thatguy was talking to, and no doubt the mafia knows me now. The only reason I think I lived last night is because I told thatguy who I was investigating and he knew they were a townie so no harm done.

So um.

That doesn't make sense, thatguy didn't want to be save (or he would have tie the vote) and it was unclear that thatguy was even mafia (ie The mafia killing khush and maxi; the two people he was working with. The hell?).

I'll join the Stratos bandwagon for now

vote Stratos
Title: Re: Day 4: PONG Mafia XXXVIII
Post by: Stratos on October 16, 2009, 06:32:12 PM
He didn't tie it because Vudu was supposed to change his vote too. Thatguy referred to it as a backstab on Vudus part I believe.

Look at these back-to-back posts from the dead thread:
To answer a question that wasn't directed at me:

No. It must be bold! VOTE VUDU!. It's the only way to vote.

Hey, I don't make the rules--I just point out those that don't follow them when it's to my benefit.

You just stab people in the back when the same person is trying to do something to save you :/

I see a lot of the remaining players have posted today. But you know who I don't see? Someone who's been laying low this whole game. Probably because he's got something to hide.

Vote Nickmitch

But nickmitch voted with us to kill thatguy...he's most definitely a townie.

Post by: oohhboy on October 16, 2009, 08:09:23 PM
Why would I try to swing the vote at the absolute very last minute knowing I didn't have enough votes to make the swing, let alone the tie?

You were never in any danger Vudu, but if you wish to vote me out of vendetta, so be it. I will defend myself and fellow townies by attempting a tie. If you are a townie, tie up the game so no one needs to die. It will give the investigator time to sort out who from who.

well, I'm not sure where to side, with the information we have either argument can be justified, this extended day will give me the time to ponder over things and maybe even get some more info, let's see where this day takes us.

Wasn't I the first one to vote for thatguy?  If it's one thing I've noticed, it's that people who arbitrarily vote for me turn out to be mafia.

Well, the only reason you voted for Thatguy is because he voted for you. MAFIA WARS!

Though really I'm just weary of people who aren't very active, because that's an easy way to avoid detection as Mafia.
Title: Re: Day 4: PONG Mafia XXXVIII
Post by: nickmitch on October 18, 2009, 12:20:20 PM
Not true.  He was a suspect on two lists (as I said), plus he was suspicious.  Besides, you'd think I'd change my vote to someone who wasn't my team mate instead of getting him killed.
Title: Re: Day 4: PONG Mafia XXXVIII
Post by: Mop it up on October 18, 2009, 02:25:55 PM
I think you're cunning enough to sacrifice one of your members in order to get people to trust you. Especially because, as you said, a few people already suspected him and therefore he was likely to be voted out at some point.
Title: Re: Day 4: PONG Mafia XXXVIII
Post by: nickmitch on October 18, 2009, 05:37:55 PM
But he clearly wasn't that day's target until I voted for him.  It would've been pointless for me to throw him under the bus like that.

Come on, VOTE STRATOS!

The oohhboy vote make no sense. Thatguy successfully killed all of his friends proving he doesn't play well with others as well as giving himself the title of the sorriest sad sap who all of his townie friend got killed by the mafia. He even got the investigator and Green to give their roles out to him. At the time vudu was and is still more likely to be mafia.

Because I think oohhboy is a townie and the sudden bandwagon against him suspicious.
Title: Re: Day 4: PONG Mafia XXXVIII
Post by: NuclearSpeed on October 18, 2009, 10:12:21 PM
Since stevey has been the most vocal and due to the fact that stratos was in on the bandwagon to get dasmos gone, and early at that, but if he is proven wrong then I will be first in line to vote for stevey and then oohhboy.

vote stratos

Cause no one is biting and it too far in the game to hand the vote to the mafia.
