Mafia 85: Return from Lockdown

[Frogsterking]

I'm at work for the next several hours fyi

I think brain, bob, nepth are my top 3 towns

[DiplomacyandWarfare]

Lies.

If you're not Mafia, you'd be willing to share with us your role.

Go on, I'm waiting.....

Investigator. Trust.

We know JustAGuyNamedWill is a Mafia because they claimed to know their role, which they definitely don't.

And you believe that only mafia would do this? Why would scum claim a role on D1 like that?

this game is unique in that the town PR who are important dont know that they are even important, which is why I would be more sus of someone like Jamie here, or someone like Chaqa here who knows their ____ALIGNMENT_____, and if it is town they know there really is a slim chance they are someone important. I dont think either of them played normally with that possibility in mind. I think they have both played as if they need to "do" some posts to look active as opposed to really getting invested.
And really why in gods name would any of us get a normal role PM, and do anything other than get curious? invested? compelled?

Wait a moment.

What do you mean, Chaqa "knows his ____ALIGNMENT____"?

No he doesn't. Nobody does. It's the key feature of the setup.

What are you even dribbling on about?

See above intended meaning

[brainbomb]

I understand the setup. I said role and my idea was you know if you are a goon or a vt based on the PM at the very least.

Hamilton enters the game, like a man looking for a shoe that his greyhound ran off with.

foodcoats is blippi.

You can piss off with levelling that fake accusation at me. Look at your own first 8 to 10 posts. Meaningless filler posts unconnected to the game. Like Chaqa, padding your post count and then, in your case, bragging about it.

Chaqa
Brainbomb
BobMcBob
Kak

is this your list of scumreads? based on above stated criteria bob did not do this at all

[brainbomb]

Oh wow, okay, big life events taking place. I will cut you a little slack, brainbomb, sorry for being assertive in my last few posts.

I hope Mrs. Bomb is doing well and that Baby Bomb will greet the world very soon. One love.

Pretty strange.
because my wife is 9 months pregnant I get a break from scrutiny? lol. Im not sure where you were assertive about why those four names are scummy but feel free to be even more assertive and provide those details

There aren't any VTs.

From scrutiny? No.
From me aggressively giving you a super hard time? Somewhat.

[bozotheclown]

It seems to me that we could match up everyone with a role or get it down to a 50/50 with a mafia counterpart by N3 if we coordinate our night targets.

[bozotheclown]

This setup is interesting in terms of D1 because nobody knows anything except:

i) Their alignment, and
ii) IF their alignment is Mafia, the identities of their team-mates.

So it's essentially a pure vanilla D1.

True

We can’t let this turn into a mech snooze fest lol

Are you saying you do not think it is possible, or you do not want it to?

[bozotheclown]

This may be helpful for us to work who we are eventually

Scan returns
Success/Failure
- Doctor
- Curfew Enforcer
- HR
- Lobbyist
- ANYONE if RB etc

Town/Mafia
- Detective
- Internal affairs (Town only)
- ECO

Role
- PI

Delivered/Undelivered
- PDB
- Door darter

Targets target
- Ruber Driver
- Middle manager

Specific person
- Pollster

Anything
- Mail man

Pointing out that this list appears to only include town roles. Also, I'd argue that there isn't really a distinction between "targets target" and "specific person" since I think in both cases you just get a name back. My list is a little different from yours in at least one place but I'll hold off from posting it if people are gonna frown at a mechanics discussion this early

I would like to see the list you are referring to.

##VOTE Kakarroto

hey. hows it going?

Good, man, how are you? Congrats on the new baby coming... that is super exciting. I wish you guys all the best.

I'm just catching up slowly, here... weekend start is a bit harder for me. Taking a minute before the honey do list. So far I can confirm that this does indeed appear to be a game of WebDip Mafia.

[bozotheclown]

I think worcej is town

What motivated you to add this part of the post?

I don't like ignoring people, but I didn't want to answer his question. So I threw in my most salient thoughts at that moment, just to sweeten my response.

Okay this slot might be +town

Is there a difference between town and +town?

[foodcoats]

So much to learn about

itll make you wanna shout

Bliiiiiipiiii Bliiipiiii

How dare you. I come here for a break from my home life.

##VOTE Brainbomb

You know something funny? My wife’s friends think I look like Blippi.

There is quite a strong resemblance.

You get a town point.

[bozotheclown]

the topic about neph being town for his mech talk was interesting
and heart saying the only possibilities neph covered was town scenarios

all of that was just very high drama

anything useful neph said got washed away in the drama of if it was scum indicative and im just wondering if it was even helpful in anything

the natural process of people dying is going to help people
learn their powers and speculating on them is pointless. there is no strategy we can even do to learn anything other than just hoping we kill some
of our own shitty roles or mafia does it for us by accident.

so neph efforts are questionable or pointless. however I think neph desired to
learn something from it. and wanted to get people thinking. and maybe there is something good inherently in that

Yes, its to be used when people start dying

I.e
Tonight I return "Delivered"
You then die and flip as PDB
I then know I'm the door darter

Who knows if it will be useful but its helpful to have imo

I think the information you are talking about could be used sooner if everyone claims their results.

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

So Diplomacy's one post is interesting and I'm not sure how to work it through.

Did Will really scumslip? Was this Dip making a joke post? If it was something, then it wasn't really tackled by anyone. Why not?

When did I scumslip?

[foodcoats]

@brainbomb can I assume that the people not mentioned in the above reads post are null to you?

God I’m starting to sound like you all. God save me

It really comes with the territory
the slang the verbiage

are you down to become my ally and form a voting
bloc with me and sweetycool?

brainbomb, are sweetycool and Will your strongest townreads?

Why would you propose becoming an "ally" and forming a "voting bloc" versus simply debating your top scumreads with them to see if your ideas are aligned?
