At this point I think we should be able to agree that the poisoner did NOT manage to poison his victim. Rodion, your complaint about English not being your mother tongue seems weak to me. I understand that others have been confused as well, but IB is right, you do write pretty eloquently. I personally don't think it's that confusing of a sentence because I'm in a clan with Skill.... he just doesn't write that well. Seems to me we should be less worried about the sentence structure of the events, and more worried about it's outcome. I see several of you guys referencing a specific term: flavor. I'm guessing that this refers to the way a story or night kill is worded giving clues to who or what happened. In this case, it's just bad grammar. So one strike against Rodion for trying to cloud the issue.
IB, your theory of a bus driver makes sense, but I'm a little confused on why it's so important to you. Whether a bus driver is involved or not, PCM (roleblocker) is still dead, and his partner has committed suicide. I'm comfortable with assuming that the suicide victim was not part of the original four (I think that was ROdion's argument though, not yours). That leaves PCM, his victim, PCM's killer and the remaining mystery character. What if the remaining character was simply a watcher, or investigator? Seems to me like there are a lot of possibilities for the extra character without it being required that a bus driver being involved. While I still agree that a bus driver is a possible explanation, it just seems like you are sticking doggedly to this point. You and Rodion have gone sideways arguing about the melee vs ranged weapons, whether or not someone got poisoned, and various roles that may or may not appear in a mod's first mafia game. You are both muddling the issue, and it wouldn't surprise me if your are both mafia! That gives you one strike for clouding the issue, and one strike for being the first to suggest an unnecessary role.
Other's thoughts?
I just didn't like sundogs post. I think they are more likely to both NOT be scum, than to both BE scum. And I think as they were fighting you just wanted to fuel it to get the town to decide one player over another, even though there is a fairly good possibility neither of them are scum.
I am willing to vote IB or sundog at this point.

I've got to admit sundog's post was a lil' fishy but I felt it was best if I didn't bring it up until a) the start of D3 or b) the case on IB fell apart. I feel we should tackle the game one case at at time so we don't split the vote and end up with a no lynch.
Iron, saying me, zimmah & Rodion are all mafia because of us defending each other is just WIFOM. You said I overly defened zimmah: he was overly attacked by catnip for a jokevote and from the way things were going zimmah was looking like our D1 scapegoat so I was trying to put a stop to it before it all got out of hand and forced him to claim (not that we don't want someone to claim but the motives were weak). Iron you sound like a dead man saying we must be careful who we want to lynch. Their are no other lynch candidates (I suppose there's sundog but the case on Iron is stronger and has more momentum). So, all in all I'm not budging on IB.
zimmah wrote:if you call that strong you don't know me, obviously, i was just trying to point out that your logic makes no sense at all and you're a serious idiot for trying to point out a JOKE VOTE as a solid argument for a real vote. and seriously, before joining a mafia game, go read yourself up on the subject, because all you do is talking trash. seriously the more i read your posts the more i want to just put you on the ignore list. i don't even think you're scum i just think you're too stupid to understand the concept of the game. and mob, he was not kidding either.
i can't believe you're even serious and your stupidity just make me angry because there's no way you can play a normal mafia game with flawed logic like that. we can't allow everyone to hide behind "oh i honestly didn't know, i never played mafia and i never really bothered to read finished games and guides to know how this game works, but i just think you look like scum so i'll just lynch you."
i wouldn't even expect this kind of BS from a new player.
zimmah wrote:i think he's lying. motivation:
- he votes rodion without any proof (jokevote, or so he claims) but he's still quite serious about it.
- when you call him out on it, he is giving a vague motivation, saying he's 'bored' in the early stage of day 1, while there's a lot of action going on.
- he's claiming to have a 'tactic' and 'role' combination (sort of claiming a power role early day 1, or at least a pretty usefull role, without much pressure at all)
- his role may or may not have anything to do with rodion, in other words it may be a power that only applies to rodion, but wouldn't lynching rodion cancel out his power, so how does it justify voting rodion?
- his answer is kinda dodgy and doesn't have much structure, he's hopping around in his explanation, first he states he's 'just bored' and right after that he sais he has a tactic. those statements don't add up.
seems to me like he's lying vote eagleblade
zimmah wrote:lol i think i understand his claim. but i'm not going to point it out.
it's obvious if you think about it.
MoB Deadly wrote:You figured it out Zimmah but your vote is still on him?
The only thing I can think of is some sort of Reverse Hider or something.. But that would be like a 1-time Cop role. (which is kind of cool actually, I may use that in future games! )
Ill sleep on this, maybe it will come to me later....
zimmah wrote:Oh and eagle, just stop trying to involve rodion in Ć case that is about you rodion has NOTHING to do with the case against you, he's not being scummy, you are. I don't see why you are trying to shift the attention towards him all the time. and besides, your plan Will not work if my guess is right. they'll just let someone else do the kill.yourplan would only work if theres only one killer.
zimmah wrote:you're overreacting IB. rodion makes a valid point. if someone would claim atm, i think counterclaiming may only make the situation worse.
in fact i find your reaction more suspicious than rodion's advice.
zimmah wrote:why is this game filled with stubborn a**holes?
i have nothing to do with rodion, i'm just telling you you should take of your tunnelvision glasses and accept that you may be wrong. i'm not even saying rodion is not mafia, he may very well be, but the reason you accuse him and the way you stick to your opinion makes me much more suspicious about you.
if you know somethng that we don't then better spit out your information. until then vote IB
zimmah wrote:for the very same reason, rodion was the most likely target for a doctor, mafia may not have wanted to risk missing a nightkill by running into a doctor, and chose an experienced player, but not as expierenced as rodion, maybe that was their logic.
you can't just bring a case against rodion just because he's experienced.

I won't quote the rest of his post, but Leitz has saved me some typing. I think we should lynch Zimmah. I believe he was trying to get me to react to his insults with more of the same, and escalate; when I did not react as he expected, he didn't have any traction to continue, and then eagleblade became an easy lynch target, and so on. But what would have happened had I responded in kind to Zimmah's provocations? A newbie calling a more experienced player nasty names after the newbie makes an atypical response to a joke vote? I think I would have been an easy target for the day one lynch. I think Zimmah saw an opportunity, and knowing that I was town, tried to play it up. Unfortunately, for the scum faction, I did not react in the desired fashion.
unvote vote Zimmah
I also have a suggestion for night actions. Rodion is clearly either a very dangerous scum player, or a very useful town player. I think it should be our priority to find out which he is. I am assuming we have a town doctor, and a town cop. We have a dead role blocker; perhaps there is another town role blocker, or someone with a similar ability. If the town doctor protected Rodion, and the town cop investigated Rodion, and anyone who could interfere with these two actions does not use them on Rodion, then we may have some useful information the next day. Of course, if we have a mafia role blocker, we won't know for sure, but perhaps there is no Mafia role blocker?

Interesting response; no attempt to explain himself or defend himself, just insulting me some more. Here is my rebuttal to Zimmah's comments:
voting people wthout having any idea what you're talking of
I think I have very logical, very reasonable thoughts about this game. I freely admit that I am new to mafia games, and have repeatedly asked more experienced players to use my ideas, or not, based on their greater knowledge of mafia games. I did not just pick Zimmah randomly; his posts have led me to my vote for him.
redirecting not only 1 but 2 power roles
I made a suggestion; I have no ability to force people to do anything. I am assuming that the players in this game are intelligent, independent thinkers, and fully able to consider the merits, or lack thereof, of my thoughts, and respond appropriately.
you dare to call me scum?
Well, yes, I do dare to call you scum...
learn to play mafia
Yep, that's what I am doing.
zimmah wrote:thew reason i'm not defending myself is that watever i say, you'll say something about me, because since the very start of this game you've been hating on me for no good reason. just leave me alone and i leave you alone.
i don't even think you're scum, like i said before, you're just too stupid to understand i'm not scum either. let's just hunt scum and ignore each other. building cases against fellow townies will only help the real scum.
Rodion wrote:If you disagree, just think of what would happen if you decided to spare Iron Butterfly and look for another target, the other target got to L-2 and claimed vanilla townie as well. Would you lynch this new target?
If your reply is yes, then you are being inconsistent for allowing the most suspected player in the game to get by with a VT claim while denying the 2nd most suspected player in the game the same vote of confidence.
If your reply is no, then best case scenario you are going to have a massclaim in which every mafia member is allowed to claim VT and know that they are untouchable.

I haven't been hating on you at all. You went postal on me. I bear no ill will towards you, and I hope that you have a good, happy, healthy life irl. However, within the context of this game, your behavior has been, and continues to be, noteworthy. And of course I am going to respond to what you say; you are saying I am wrong about you, and I believe I am right about you.
Iron Butterfly wrote:Zimmah. All I can say is WOW. Desperation.
Rodian you offered two opinions from unkown individuals about why they think VT should die. So what.
My opinion is circumstance dictates gameplay. The size of a game, the types of roles involved, the quality and experience of the players.
You have Zimmah selfdestructing before our very eyes under the pressure.
We are slowly having an understanding of whos who.
