Also, I'm a big fan of pushing buttons when I find them. If misspelling a name gets a rise I'll keep pushing that button. Reactions are analysis around here.

Um, what exactly do you expect to get out of this? Something like: "Listen you townie, if you misspell my username one more times, my mafia buddies will kill you... Uh oh, did I say that out loud?"

Forum downtime is poopy.

FWIW, the paco I remember from when he played way back when is the same paco that we see now.

He only played in one game, per the records, and he was town (and won).  He lynched two scum, mislynched one town.  Generally speaking, a good town player.

Since we've never seen scum!paco, and we don't have a lot to go on, he's going to remain hard to read.  He's not going to be easy-to-catch scum.

Has he played more elsewhere? He sounds really experienced (or maybe really confident in his own abilities?) for someone who's only played one previous game.

Having just tried to make up a reads list for myself, I put him in the bag with you and PPS as "people who I'm unlikely to read anything useful from in D1".

You are being quite helpful, which may or may not be suspicious. How come JReggie and RR being silent is suspicious, while Zigaton's silence is not?

Zigaton is non-native super-newbie. They're not. I played with both and they are usually good readers and posters.

RR hasn't posted at all today, JReggie, on the other hand, has. Maybe you are right, I haven't played with them before.

I was silent over the weekend because I was v/la. RR is silent because he's in school. But I still think a vote: RR could help. It's hard to form reads here because there are so many people I haven't played with or read before.

Urgh. I'm not okay with trollish behaviour, which is what this sounds like :-(

Look, this is Mafia. It's a game of social deduction. If I can introduce a emotional instability into your game I gain competitive advantage. What you call trolling i call gamesmanship. We have limits to just how much trolling is allowed which implies everything not defined is fair game.

What's funny about this is I wasn't even the one pushing the button, ashersky was. I was pointing out how this is effective play. You come along and get emotionally invested against me. So I pushed your buttons by a proxy of a proxy.

Actually, I've played in 4 games, always VT (sort of, for RMM21). I've been in NM6, M50, RMM21, and M64, in that order. Even got MVP in NM6, in a rather embarrassing way </humblebrag>

The recent exchange between Lalight and McGarnacle is... interesting...

Would definitely like to hear more from RR and J Reggie.

Zigaton, do you have a basic idea of what's going on? Do you have any questions? If you have no idea of what's going on, post a short list of what you think of every player. It doesn't necessarily have to be based on facts, just the general feel you get from each player is enough, even if you can't quite explain them.

This joke is scummy.  Plus emoticon.

Not superstrong, but I guess no D1 case ever is...

In the mean time, vote: Zigaton. Only posted twice, and both posts raised red flags for me.
Lol.You're wrong,dude.I voted for you to see your reaction.I think it is too early to draw any conclusions.

That still doesn't explain why you have only posted a total of three times.
Because this is my first game (I have not yet come up with what to write, but do not worry, soon I will take an active part in the discussion.
P.S. Excuse my terrible english :)

He must be scum! I've never heard of American or English mafia, but I have heard about Russian, Italian, etc. 

P.S. No offense If you are from either of those two countries. :)
You're right. Seventy percent of families in the Russian mafia :)
P.S. But I am not

Me with Zigaton are both from Russia, but it's no offence. Though I've heard a lot about American Mafia. Chicago, isn't it?

Did you hear about American drug lords?They may be associated with the Mafia
