MAFIA 71: "PAPERS PLEASE" - GAME THREAD [Hidden]

[Durga]

Like two posts from ghug and he's this broken? I don't even remember them previously fighting... and all of us were ribbing on Eden during the Chaqa cop game and Eden was ribbing on Chaqa and Eden wasn't this dramatic.

Eden knows that we all like him so what's with this display? I'm not trying to fight you here Eden. I think you should sleep on it and keep playing with us... This is kinda weird tho.

[Durga]

Maybe this is the kgray method of getting people to stop scum reading them

I have never asked or threatened to ask for a sub because someone was scumreading me....

I think I heard the last game was an absolute dumpster fire (especially the peanut gallery) so he might still be raw from whatever was going on in there.

[Durga]

Ghug if you need to fight someone to get through a game, I volunteer

FWIW, I would be townreading you right now if it wasn't multi.

Why? It's not like there's team-related voting stuff going on yet so it must be tone, and I don't see how that really depends on there being two maf teams.

@Sabi and Bozo

So I notice neither of you expressed interest in joining the alliance. Can you share why not?

It reminded me of the Survivor game captainmeme ran where you and Durga killed off your alliances.

ok wait hang on lmao.
I stabbed Ezio because he tried to stab me first and failed.
I never stabbed Snowy! He was my soul mate that game.
I never stabbed Durga or Balki, we were f3 dream team.
I never stabbed Vashta, I told everyone I wanted him dead.
Ghug I did stab ok, but he deserved it probably.
If I remember correctly I stabbed you but you played an idol. Then I stabbed you again and you came back from redemption island. Then I stabbed you again and you finally died. But I felt legitimately terrible about it! Voting you out continuously was probably the hardest moments of the game.

So I think I only really stabbed 2 people that entire game.

I didn't deserve it, you just needed me gone.

Your town ooze stream-of-conscious is back. But the bar is still higher in multi because mafia are just as clueless as town.

And you were entirely on board with us killing snowy, you just didn't vote for him.

[ghug]

Maybe, but something seemed off.

Yes, something is definitely off. ghug is being nice to me

It was the escalation between ghug and PE that seemed to come out of nowhere.

Agreed

[ghug]

Wait, PE asked for a sub?

Yes. The only reason I mentioned it publicly is because I intend not to interact with the game anymore, and it appeared to me that I was not going to be subbed out until tomorrow, so I wanted my disappearance explained and not held against my replacement.

I am not changing my mind. I am tired of the peanut gallery constantly giving me grief about how I play because I know it doesn’t come from a good place. It is inundated with condescension and elitism that I don’t appreciate, and to make things worse it is now rationalized and justified by their projection of their condescension and elitism on me. This is not the behavior of friends who respect you or of good people.

I play this game because it is fun. I don’t play to stroke my ego, nurse a reputation of being a “good player” or any of this garbage. I openly say that I am at best mediocre at the core hunt of the game and that my strengths lie in helping my team win. Every post I make works to that end. I am sick of certain arrogant know-it-alls denigrating my approach to the game and have no desire to deal with them further, so I am leaving. Good luck to my team.

Eden, I'm pretty offended by what you've said to me, so I'm not going to apologize or try to convince you to stay, but there's no intention of elitism or belittlement of you as a person here. I think you're one of the smarter people here, the university thing was meant as an empty dig at Boat (I'm pretty easily offended by that sort of elitism myself), and I don't think I'm all that good at the game currently myself.

[captainmeme]

ok what the actual hell

I opened up applications to my alliance like 3 pages earlier than Flum did and everyone ignored me

[captainmeme]

I am genuinely looking for a majority alliance interested in voting no kill this first round

has the power of no kill been forgotten over the time I've been away? We conclusively proved in the early days of mafia that it was the most effective strategy

[captainmeme]

Oh also see you Eden, not playing mafia is probably the smartest decision anyone can make so def not going to criticise you on that one

(More seriously I hope things get better for you <3 always better to take a step back and take care of yourself than get overly discouraged by games like this)

[rdrivera2005]

the correct play is to shit post and hope the scum teams target each other right?

Yeah just let both of them do the hard work of hunting while we just kick back, relax on a beach, and sip on a mojito. If we do it right we won't even need to kill a single scum to win and they'd all be dead by EON3. ez pz

I like this idea, specially the Mojito on a beach part (but you alo know I am more on Caipirinhas). Hopefully will be doing this after Christmas.

I am having a hard time trying to understand if you are being serious or not. Probably not.

I am not sure I agree totally. Of course Mafia can still hunt for other Mafia, but Mafia still have more info then town and you can still expect Mafia to have more restraint on their posts.

This said, I think Sabi is really likely town and I think Eden (or his sub) too.
