MAFIA 49 -Avengers "Re-release"- GAME THREAD [HIDDEN]

[xorxes]

Fun thing for those wanting to do it, make a read list except you aren't allowed to have nulls. Makes it a lot harder but more fun to read back on

No, it triggers people and will upset many

This is a scummy response.

Very scummy. But it's the kind of scummy things that scum take care not to say.

[Nephthys]

Neph's proposal removes neutrals and forces us to include any slight scumlean, I'm not up for that, people are prone to OMGUS and I've already had too many votes

I'm only mentioning my strong scumbums.

It also forces scum to be decisive. For scum, every read, to some degree, is a decision "do I want this person to be a scum/town read?" Therefore, by removing all nulls, it forces them to make more decisions. The more decisions scum make, the easier they are to catch. This is why scum tend to be lower in posts that many town. Its harder by definition to go high posting scum and do well

[Vaporwave]

Holy men:
bomb - Kitsune - Nephthys (new entry) - worcej (new) - xorxes


Early first impressions were cool, but now I feel a bit displeased with their absence:
bozo - damo - e.m.c - rivera

Could be anything:
BG - Chaqa - Fox - KalelC - Maniac - ND - Temasek

As crooked as one can be:
dargo - Espresso - foodcoats

[Vaporwave]

oh no Jamie

[brainbomb]

yep

[Temasek22]

Game has been running for 15 hours.
Non-posters: Chaqa, KalelChase, yuuki.
Low posters: Espresso, Damo, Temask, Rdrivera.

LUUUUURKERS

Are you shocked though?

I think he isn't

[Temasek22]

##Vote Kalel

After recent posts he is the more suspicious newb. I mean, I've been scum as a rookie before, so...

Why the food read?

[damo666]

ND could be a PR who wants scum to think hes vt or an idiot
ND could be a vt who wants scum to think hes sk
he could be SK pulling a double bluff too

but ND being scum only makes sense if hes trying to sac himself to force an sk counter claim. which seems unprecedented and unrealistic for him

either brain is spot on here or he and ND both scum (highly unlikely)

Do you believe ND really was roleplaying Thanos?

I wouldn't know tbh. Unfamiliar with the flavour.

[rdrivera2005]

Macro Reads List:
NB - if I miss anyone, consider them null.
Town
Brain - consistent with his town play (erratic votes, high post count, questioning ppl's motives). Furthering discussion.

Kitsune - getting earnest noob vibes from him, but he's still trying to figure things out.

Townlean
Bozo - I liked his opening but he hasn't said a lot more since then. Bozo isn't usually very active in the early days, so I'm not expecting a ton of posts from him until later. His activity in the mid/lategame should be telling.

Worcej - his alignment should be obvious by the late game. For now, his prodding looks good.

BunnyGo - getting good beginner vibes from him, too.

Jamie - every time I think Jamie is scummy, he's actually town. I think he's scummy this game, so he's probably actually town.

Null
Rdr - he's usually a lot more active in the early game

Xorxes - he's playing a little different than normal, but it's possibly because of his recent scum games.

ND - the persona is pretty weird. It'll be easier to sort him once he starts playing normally.

Vapour* - Vapour is definitely acting strange. Some of his posts give the survivalist vibe, but then later posts say he's fine with dying. Imo, he's either a scum or a PR. If he's still alive in a few days, we lynch.

Scumlean
Darg - nice posts without much substance.

Scum
Fox - lurker calling out lurkers. Easy way for scum to generate content without much effort
EMC - I recall seeing a bunch of his posts but nothing stood out. Seems like he's playing under the radar.
Kalal - really disliked his entry posts. It looks like he was trying to have an attention-seeking entrance

OK then, I'm going to ##VOTE Espresso

I'm really sad because we were scumbuddies in the minimafia game and did great together, and I still feel some camaraderie towards EP because of that, but I think he is scum this time. This reads list is very empty, too many reads to say very little. Too manys "time will tell". Reads I especially dislike: bozo, rivera, Fox.

Agree on my read, telling I am usually more active is just weird.

[brainbomb]

I dont know if I want kit in the towncore just yet. seems like an awful lot of people accepted that as fact kinda out of nowhere. vapor even has kit at #2 in his town and hes never even asked kit a single question

[KalelChase]

Did I miss your answer to this, KalelChase?
@ kalel... Are you Superman? That's not marvel... But also what. Do you have against no Lynch? What if I channelled my inner Enzio and pointed out that most D1 lynched hit town? What if I pointed out that our town stones are sleeping d1 and we risk hitting them before use? In your opinion, us NL really such a bad idea? I guess you do, since it free your vote...

Maybe you didn't answer because autocorrect killed my message...

Can you explain what is so indicative to you about a No Lynch vote? Is NL really such a bad idea? I guess you do think it is, since it caused your vote...

Dargorygel - You didn't miss my answer. I'm really just trying to keep up. This is a lot more active than I thought it was going to be.
Kalel is actually my middle name. It's Hebrew.
I'm probably showing my newbieness in that my strategy is completely based on some tips I've read.
First - that Scum would lay low and VT would be more outgoing. Since I want to be correctly identified, and people here don't know much about me anyway I thought I'd put myself out there. Clearly a mistake as I've attracted attention (which is kind of cool also).
Second - it seems in this kind of game the VTs have to act quickly or the Scum (who know who everyone is?) can just start picking us off. Maybe that doesn't apply to D1.

Would be interested in hearing why those two tactics are completely off - I intend to learn as much about playing this as I can before getting axed.

Thanks for asking.

[Kitsune]

I'm actually fine with this.

Please do ask me anything you want to, I'd prefer to be in a trusted core than be there but have people still having doubts about me while we go detectiving.

[Chaqa]

I don't think he's towncore yet, but I'm feeling comfortable with him.

My "town" for right now is brain, Jamiet, Kitsune, xorxes; softer town reads on rivera, Neph, Fox.

[brainbomb]

either brain is spot on here or he and ND both scum (highly unlikely)

Do you believe ND really was roleplaying Thanos?

I wouldn't know tbh. Unfamiliar with the flavour.

I believe ND was roleplaying Dumbas

[brainbomb]

Why is Jamie town? he hasnt screamed at anyone yet or demanded a writ of habeaus corpus

[brainbomb]

mafia with bb
I make townreads
you all agree with me
we form a core
I dispute my own reads and tinfoil on them

profit

[bozotheclown]

I would like to try something that showed promising results in M47 and have everyone list 4 players they think are the most likely to be scum. You do not have to give reasons, and ignore the SK for now. I will start: Vapor, emc, rdrivera, Nephthys.

##Vote bozo

This was useful yes and I intended to bring it up when relevant. This was also used to success last game although both times the game has progressed significantly than it currently has. There is little point in doing it now and it is the definition of content for the sake of content

Yikes that wording was sloppy

- Yes its useful
- Its only useful later
- Bringing it up now is terrible play
