Jamski, are you still running the sweepstakes this edition?

If you are, could you post the picks in one post?

It seems too... easy. I'd need to see that thread. I think Jamski is yanking our chains just for the hell of it.

You, however, are a ferret, and thus obviously evil.

For sweepstakes I believe it is Herc and Spaced.


I'm so sure of my picks that I will now vote for Guynemer.

Maybe I'm mistaking, but as far as I remember, both those I voted for in the sweepstakes are dead, so I've got no-body to vote for... so my vote goes for Guynemer

Ack!! It's RAH, you fools! Remember when I said:

Quote:
The way the mood is around here, I was thinking that rah would be next on the pile list, anyway.
and now I'm dead. And see how he manipulates the docpiles away from him towards someone else! Get rah!

Again, this proves my first one to vote get docpiled theory. I saw Kass's posts first, but have refrained from posting until now. Guynemer posts first and votes for Rah. Rah in turn votes for him. The last vote starts the docpile.

For the sweepstakes I'll go with Rah and Guynemer. I suspected them both for quite some time now, but.....(thud, dial tone)

You'll notice that I have consistently voted for the person that voted for me out of self defense. If you consider that manipulating, then I guess it's working.

Don't waste your sweepstakes selection on me.

I will GUARENTEE 100% that I am not either one of the mafias this game.

I know claims of innocence are worth less than the ether that they're posted in. But I guess I can take solace in the fact that all the people accusing me are dead and can't vote. Maybe if they had accused the real mafias, they'd still be alive an voting today.

Ok, I just had a new idea. Look at the people who have survived so far. And pick the ones that are least likely to be the mafia, you know, for example, if they have been mafia before.

Since the mafias know these people will less likely be voted out, they would be their target rather than the ones that the mafia believes can be voted out.

However the only reason these people are still not killed by the mafia can only be that, they are the mafias themselves!!!

Not quite, it's the 1st person (in this game, anyway) who receives multiple votes who gets docpiled.

Which is why I switched from rah to capitangarlic when I saw him vote for me. I raced to vote before rah could vote for me, b/c I'm positive if he did I'd have been docpiled, not frozzy.

Kept me alive for another 12 hours...

Silly villiagers. At this stage of the game docpiling will only help the mafias. I would have thought that you know better.

I'm curious as to whether or not Frozzy was the impaler. Looking bak I found this 2 things:

Quote:
These are the people which I killed in my previous life as a mafia: Guynemer, Spiffor, Spaced Cowboy, and Frozzy.
Written by Johnny, the 1st kill. But on the next page:

Quote:
Did I mention I hate Tennessee? Greatly?
By Frozzy himself. Giving himself away? If he is a mafia I'll feel really dumb.

With as many players that we have and the ambiguity of any clues, the odds state that you won't pick off the mafia till later in the game. Docpiling is a way to help you stay in the game longer and have a better chance of being alive when the mafia is finally fingered, and being part of the winning team. Anyone that doesn't understand this concept is just fooling themselves. The amount of times that it happens shows that most people seem to get it. IT"S MORE ABOUT STAYING ALIVE THAN ACTUALLY GETTING THE MAFIA.

Sometimes when you point fingers toward different people by their reaction you may find some clues. But always docpiling only let the mafias sit back relaxed. Anyways the successful rate of this game comparing the others has already told us how docpiling is doing in finding the mafia.

Perhaps you are right thouth that the most people do not know that getting the mafia is the key for this game. If you don't get the mafias, it doesn't really matter if you are alive for 12 more hours or not.
