I see, I prefer town myself too. I'm prone to not posting as much as mafia myself, or at least I was, though I think I did a bit improve there in recent games, so I'm not sure how true that is anymore.

I can't tell if you're asking me about my scum range or how experienced I am with the game in general. My scum range isn't impressive, I don't like lying to people, I'm good at cop hunting though. I played live chat mafia a lot, maybe like a thousand hours or so, way too much and mostly in high school. I've played a bunch of forum mafia games too but not to the same magnitude as live chat.

do you personally prefer playing town or mafia (as a faction)? What would you say is your greatest maf-read for others?

Re: Mafia 85: Return from Lockdown
Oh that. Well it felt like not as many as usual were in the game. And, a bit hard to describe, like the posts didn't flow as it normally would, at least with so many participants. It was about an hour and a half between my posts and it was only like page three. It felt a bit like something is missing, something to fire up people, or something people can be controversial about. Maybe something to react to. So I did my endvote to see how peeps react to it.Frogsterking wrote: ↑Sat Jan 20, 2024 9:40 pmHow you felt about the pace of the game at gamestartKakarroto wrote: ↑Sat Jan 20, 2024 6:03 pmsure, I'm happy to answer.

You see, there exists a complicated formula that is hard to calculate, but it involves chipotle, his car, and his old college room mate.

Re: Mafia 85: Return from Lockdown
I didn't really think of it as scum-scum, the angle I was looking at was scum!heart referencing a different game they were town with the other players to try and reestablish that connection right away. It's probably bullshit but whatever. I wouldn't say one of them has to be town, if the angle I was looking at is a miss then it's just a miss.

Nope. Has to be a living player. If they die the night you use it, it will still go through.

I just thought of a joke during my morning walk:
What do you call an Austrian dog?
So what do you call 'einen guten Jungen' or 'ein gutes Mädchen'?
I suppose in Austrian the answer would be Wienerhund, but then the joke doesn't quite make sense.

Re: Mafia 85: Return from Lockdown
I can't say I laughed too much about that, but the joke kinda makes sense, though there are a lot of people who wouldn't equalize Wien with Austria, at least here.sweetandcool wrote: ↑Sat Jan 20, 2024 10:31 pmA Wienerdog.Kakarroto wrote: ↑Sat Jan 20, 2024 10:09 pmI'm trying to think, but nothing special comes to mind.

I suppose in Austrian the answer would be Wienerhund, but then the joke doesn't quite make sense.
Also, what you call Wiener, we call it here Frankfurter (because a person from Frankfurt [who did so in Vienna] invented it and called it in homage of his birth city), though most other german speaking regions call it indeed Wiener (since it comes from Vienna and stuff, though they don't honour the inventors wish). At the end, it's just a hot dog.
We do have something called 'Wiener' here, but it's a kind of (sliced) sausage. If you are in a supermarket and go to the meat area ordering 'Wiener' there, you'll get that (well they would ask you how much 'deka' [from dekagram] of it you would want, so don't get confused there).
There is another use of 'Wiener', regarding the Schnitzel, so if you go into a viennese restaurant and order a 'Wiener', you'll get that, because no restaurant here would think it's a hot dog.
But yeah, if you are in Frankfurt, Berlin or Munich, ordering a Wiener would yield you (a pair of) hot dog sausages. Well not 100% sure on Munich, but pretty certain.
Anyway, no dog meat would be used, that is guaranteed. There are some places where you can get horsemeat though, which might not be something for americans.

Re: Mafia 85: Return from Lockdown
Brain blurts long posts out recklessly in a way that basically spews them town. Bob seems to be proactive about solving and getting reads out. Nepth made several posts in a row that looked like town to me and apparently they haven't played in ages so their scum gane probably sucks. You can go ahead and tentatively add justaguy and kakarott to this town list. I'm tempted to add lfishl, woc and sweet to this town list too but I can't quite do it yet.Hamilton Brian wrote: ↑Sat Jan 20, 2024 6:39 pmDeciding I want to start recording these for posterity.

Re: Mafia 85: Return from Lockdown
Well I kinda digressed into word usage/origins, so I wouldn't say it was analysing the joke but just me rambling about Austrian things. Also I didn't want to be negative about his joke, just wanted to be more indepth why it wasn't particularly thrilling for me.JustAGuyNamedWill wrote: ↑Sat Jan 20, 2024 10:54 pmAre we over analyzing jokes now?Kakarroto wrote: ↑Sat Jan 20, 2024 10:47 pmI can't say I laughed too much about that, but the joke kinda makes sense, though there are a lot of people who wouldn't equalize Wien with Austria, at least here.sweetandcool wrote: ↑Sat Jan 20, 2024 10:31 pm
