Mafia 86: Accidents Happen... - Game Thread

[Jamiet99uk]

Bunny isnt trying to sort me. But he also doesnt typically try to either

In my experience you sort yourself, given time.

[Jamiet99uk]

What does this mean

bunny is saying me or ghug - one of us has to be mafia and hes assuming its ghug. i was asking why either of us got to that point.

I think you're doing the thing where you take two things someone has said and assume they're connected.

ghug and brain not scum together
and then later
ghug scum
does not imply
brain scum if ghug town

But, it does imply exactly that, unless the first statement no longer stands.

[Jamiet99uk]

I’ll probably just mess around with Jamie

Wanna dance?

I have Microsoft Paint loaded up and ready.

[Jamiet99uk]

chaqa at what point does it go from normal amount of posts and pages, manageable, everythings fine, time to do the dishes and play some diablo 3.

To this:

Too many posts, too many posts
Too many posts, too many posts!

I can report that they post much more frequently on MafiaUniverse. It's genuinely hard to keep up.

[Jamiet99uk]

No like seriously I’m fucking tired of it

I’m asking for a sub in the morning. I got better shit to do

Chill out, dude.

[Frogsterking]

After last game I’m almost not sure what I’m supposed to be doing

Give me reads on at least 5 players please

Which five?

Your choice!

Definitely doesn't sound like last game.

Have you played elsewhere, or is this your second game? Are you good at Diplomacy?

I've played elsewhere. The second question is difficult to answer, I like to think I'm good but I'm probably just average.

What do you mean by "doesn't sound like last game" ?

[BunnyGo]

I just wanna know why he thinks youre scum.

To the GT:

I didn't tell you guys? Oh, I guess it just came out when I realized it.

Ghug was focusing and responding to certain posts and not others. The posts he was responding to were less game oriented, and more easy picking/attention getting oriented.

This is more likely scum!ghug.

The really funny thing about this: scum!ghug is gonna be pissed as fuck because he'll disagree both with my assessment of how he was posting AND what it means even if he was doing it. Then he'll HATE getting called out for something he doesn't think is a good reason to get caught.

He'll then go overly hard to buddy up, and try and get me to stop what he thinks is a stupid reason to read him. He'll think he can charm me into doubting my read.

Annnnd....action!

The bold is an accurate assessment of my play.

The italicized I only do with people I respect.

To the GT:

[BunnyGo]

12 is not 25

So did you know that when you wrote the above post it was 25 pages into that game?

And what is the cutoff like 20 pages? 17 pages?

Or was it all that mech talk that was cooking the game also

I find this line of questioning irrelevant and unproductive so I’m not going to engage it.

To the GT:

Yeah...this is weird from BB.

Why is he comparing Chaqa to last game minutes after saying he don't do that?

Why is he needling him about a stupid thing about the number of pages he can read?

Maybe he doesn't know how to engage with Chaqa? Wonder why though.

[BunnyGo]

Isnt much but its good enough for me

Chaqa is mafia here

To the GT:

Wait...what?

Didn't brainbomb just convince the jury that the evidence said Chaqa wasn't scum? Since he said he had time to read and didn't think it was bad? I'm so confused.

I hope someone else shows up to explain the argument he really wanted to make to the jury.

But...glad he's enjoying reading into old game meta how a single player plays. That's fun!

But certainly confusing me with all his contradictory posts.

Chaqa and Brainbomb have had these issues with each other ever since they attended middle school together. I think Bozo was in the class above them.

[BunnyGo]

see thats where youre wrong
You have a very deep range. you have an arsenal of playstyles. But that has limits and in the end you have a scum heuristic and a town one. its a matter of finding commonalities in each.
The attempt to notice things you are subconsciously unaware of should be a compliment to you.

To the GT:

Wait...isn't this EXACTLY the opposite of what BB was saying before about reading people?

To the GT:

Didn't jamie have to study logic when he learned rhetoric?

Maybe he's getting lost in ghug's bad rhetoric, but ghug's logic is solid.

[BunnyGo]

To the GT:

Well...time to go to work. Gotta give a talk today. On something. Haven't written it yet.

Least it's warmer today. 16 with windchill.

I have never studied formal logic but I think you are wrong.

Statement 1: Person A and Person B do not share Property X.
Statement 2: Person A possesses Property X.
Implies: Person B does not possess Property X.

[Jamiet99uk]

To put it in a more mathematical way:

a+b =/= 4

IF: a = 2
Then: b =/= 2

Hello, Fellow Townspeople.

Sus right out of the gate.

To the GT:

Why did HamB first quote my post wondering about him and THEN go back to the start? That may be the most suspicious start he’s ever had. And that’s really saying something.

If you open the thread, it will go to the last page. Is it really so unusual that someone might read things slightly out of order?

[foodcoats]

I want to hear your reads, justaguynamedwill.

I also want you to respond to my question from earlier, foodcoats:

Foodcoats ignoring this is +scum I guess

+guess scum is this I Foodcoats guess ignoring

I am very early into reading with intent to solve rather than reading with intent to shitpost, but Bunny is striking me as scummy (particularly that one I quoted where he shades HB for ridiculous reasons), and the post where you gathered multiple HB quotes made me notice that HB seems very relaxed, which seems townish. I will therefore give each of them a slight lean in the appropriate direction of scum and town respectively.

[foodcoats]

Foodcoats what are your reads on everyone's opening?

I have read them and confirmed they are openers in a game of WebDip Mafia.

You may kiss the ring.

Okay, thank you for answering. How do you motivate yourself to read this thread?

I see we are out of sync, but nonetheless… I enjoy reading it. I likes the game. It’s fun.

I also find that the WebDip group is particularly fun. I’ve tried playing on other sites and have concluded it’s not a game I really care to play outside this meta.

[foodcoats]

Tiny scumread I’m that you, a on tiny, don’t not the mean own. Of based I but being any, maybe conclusions my Froggo And genuine On have and is and others,

Which conclusions?

I don’t know who said it but it was like: “Frog is trying to be Frog from last game, not town”

I am trying to avoid leaning on meta too much, but Frog does not seem to be playing materially different from last game. Is there any post in particular that seems fake?
