Mafia round 93: hot potato! (game thread)

[bozotheclown]

Also, the SP has the potential to clear players if the player they pass it to gets revealed as mafia, so I think it makes sense for the SP holder to claim that they held the SP immediately after passing it (but not who they passed it to, at least not until 1 phase later).

Yeah, I probably should have worded that better. Thanks to everyone for catching that.

The holder of the couch potato is *required* to pass it by the end of each day.

"If you are a member of the mafia, you may not pass the sweet potato to another mafia member."

If we know player 1 passed the SP to player 2 at some point, and player 2 gets revealed as mafia by way of DK or exploding potato, player 1 is cleared.

mafia cannot pass sweet potato to another mafia
therefore if a player passed a sweet potato to another player, at most one of them can be mafia

Town driving a potato onto a PR and forcing them out is a potential detriment.

because we have prs

Right, it works both ways, so in the example I gave, player 1 being revealed as mafia would also clear player 2. A mafia would not be able to avoid claiming because the town who passed them the SP could reveal who they passed it to one phase after passing it, at EON or EOD if necessary to avoid the information being lost to a NK or a PK (potato kill).

hmm, it's pretty quiet

Bunny, what do you think of damo discrediting you (and mimi) without him voting you? Do you think he has ulterior motives here? Or do you think it's just a silly joke?

I think him doing it is NAI or slight town!damo.

I think you asking about it would be scummy if someone else were asking.

I think it’s NAI though or slight town!kaka.

Is there any reason to keep the identity of the holders of regular potatoes hidden?

Yes?

[BunnyGo]

Anyway, I'll bbl b/c ND has some other things to do tonight.

Brazilian butt lift?

Have we played before? I don’t remember you. This is a strong start.

[BunnyGo]

I believe the potatoes aren’t active Day 1? So I guess at this point it isn’t super useful info. But also why disclose? They all are required to be thrown besides the couch and rotten.

More information is usually better for town, unless there is a corresponding detriment.

You think potatoes are AI or worthwhile information?

[BunnyGo]

But no players are given special roles so that's not a thing, so fuck it who cares

I’m picturing bo making a post about PRs, then remembering to check the rules. Then posting this. I don’t remember him well enough to say what this indicates, but seems slightly scummy to me in a vacuum.
