Mafia 65: Dreamland II [Hidden]

[Bonatogether]

Could you share with the rest of us?

I've been doing a bit of thinking about how the deputy should play, considering their possible sanities.

50% chance they're bunk, 25% they're normal, and 25% they need to flip their scans

Why do you think the GMs would give a 50% chance that the deputy is worthless? Almost worse than a VT since they don't even know that it's useless for a while.

Part of my thought is that the deputy is almost surely useful and the *possibility* that it's useless is just a distraction to make them question their reads a little for the first few days. (I'd guess the possibility is non-zero, but close to zero especially since there are fewer town players than a full slate suggested)

Guessing what the GMs did to the deputy is meaningless and not worth the time. We won't know until we have several days of scans to look through.

##vote vecna Im town. Fuck off.

This is a weird vote. There was clearly some early game banter from Vecna and lfischl reacted to it. I don't really get what Bona's trying to do here though.

@Bona - care to explain? Why the Vecna vote?

I like lfischl

[Bonatogether]

Especially considering the next couple posts from Bona. You voted brain immediately after then forgot your original Vecna vote?

True

I don't have the time to read 22 pages now, but I saw that we were endvoting, this is a good idea I would love to go hang out in QT with my buddies.

Townslip here from jasnah?

I dunno, we were talking about this in the scumchat and... oh my god, did I just say that out loud? HOW CARELESS OF ME. Gosh, everyone, please don't take this post as an entirely implausible construction.

We should roleblock ghug

Normally I think cop scans are wasted on players that are likely to be DKed eventually either way and should be used on players likely to sneak through to KiLo. But this game I'd recommend scanning a couple players likely to be DKed for calibration purposes.

For the record, that would have been hilarious if we had actually done that after I slipped.

Good evening, Fellow Townspersons.

Townspersons. Townpersons! That an odd word. Why not town folk or town people? Perhaps it’s code. Yes I’m sure it’s code. Maybe an anagram. Good evening. Fellow townpersons. Easily becomes Owen Glendower Novello is soft p..

So what does that mean?

Well ‘soft’ in mafia lingo means Jamie is softing his role. ‘Soft P..’ could be soft porn. It’s true that the Novello does include a rather unnecessary depiction of oral sex by Margerat Hanmer that doesn’t progress the story one bit. But that doesn’t make sense in mafia terms. ‘Soft P’ could refer to ‘silent P’ at the start of some words like ptosis, pneumonia, psoriasis which happen all to be medical terms. Hmmmm maybe Jamie is softing being a doctor here?

What about the book? Owen Glendower for those who don’t know was the last Welsh Prince of Wales and led the rebellion against the English. The English version of his name is used in novel by John Cowper Powys. Glendower died around 1415 during the reign of Henry V. Henry V is, of course, a play by William Shakespeare that features Owen Glendower in passing. The 1989 film of the play was produced by none other than Bruce SHARMAN, which is the modern spelling of SHAMAN. There is little doubt that Jamie is softing being a shaman/doctor. But why? My belief is that he is mafia and will reveal his rather obvious breadcrumbs if/when he is up for the daykill.

I think we have Jamie banged to rights.

This was very impressive *claps*

Hello

Yes. Didn't you see the note in the QT?

editing bona's post to add a question that he can then answer? wut

Not an edited post

youre a bad girl and you should feel bad

[Vecna]

Can the person with the gun shoot bob

bob is town though

but he's annoying

very few people playing this arent

(I have a mild townread on you now thanks to this casual insult)

[Vecna]

Welcome back town!celaph. Missed you last game.

Do not like this reaction from bunny since he was GM in the mini and would know that theres a glaring difference.

You see a difference? This reminds me a lot of celaph in his first full game as opposed to celaph in his second full game. What are you thinking?

Im thinking that you are scum

[Vecna]

23 pages already! Worse than I had hoped for, but not actually that bad considering most of it will be pointless chatter.

Who wants to give me a summary?

ghug says that vecna has a guilty scan on you. Otherwise you're right, mostly high school drama chatter.

Seems a little early for a guilty scan, no? I've been watching a lot of CSI lately, and that usually doesn't come until much later in the episode.

cant outfox the sheep

surprising level of un-smootheness from tham as well here

Man, HR is in this game?

I dont think I can deal with this just yet. Too soon, too soon.

I was thinking something similar, not so much in terms of un-smoothness, but more of manufactured hunting.

Well then, lets put the petal to the metal and roast this little bull-tail

[ghug]

It's incredibly sad ghug has apparently moved on from me to wooing celaph, but understandable to a point. Bit odd though in context of previous games.

I've still got enough love for you too

[Vecna]

After this weekend, I dont think I can ever be upset with, and fight HR in mafia again.

This is probably a buff and a boon for town.
