Mafia 86: Accidents Happen... - Game Thread

[ghug]

To the GT:

Doesn’t froggy usually make reads about active posters?

Why he stop at like 3 reads and i don’t think about 4 of top 5 posters?

Why is food scum?


Sigh…need Vecna and bozo to come play.

Need to get back to work…

I definitely thought the other mention of Vecna was a joke until right now.

[ghug]

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" ?

Last game turned out to not be about reading people.

Okay so what was the connection between your thoughts there? Why did you ask me about Diplomacy?

I like to ask new players who seem smart that question. Most mafia players are terrible at diplomacy and have large egos, so it garners interesting responses. Discussion of last game reminded me that I hadn't had that opportunity.

To the GT:

I don’t understand why people think this is some joking performance art.

I’m giving them a view into the absurdist stream of consciousness that is my mind.

I assure you, this is what I’m thinking.

Can you give me a full reads list with explanations by the time I check the thread again?

it won’t even be fun because I’m just a VT and I can’t fuck with him

Im not gonna speculate on if this is true or not; but what roles were you under the impression could “fuck” with me?

Well apparently anything but VT. I'm not 100% sure what I was getting at with that post, I was just spewing thorns

@Frog I was thinking about it and I guess technically I didn't provide reads on ghug and brainbomb, only engaged a lot with them. I think both are probably town.

The others would have been Bunny, Will, and you.

Howzit going in the UK? Heard it was pretty dang cold up there.

Can you point to your reads on Bunny, Frog, and I? Or are you implying that you haven’t done them yet?

The reads on you and Bunny were pretty bare, but the one on Frog has some meat on it.

The fact anyone would expect you to have five formed reads on day 1 is pretty ridiculous but he also doesnt know you that well.

Ive seen you take control of town on day one in a mini with 12 players and you were towns biggest asset all game long. You had very hard nosed reads that were solid and you fended people away from the players you felt were most town, in that game bunny was like attached at your hip. And you were right he was a horrible miskill in that game.

so I know you can do those things when you feel like winning.

Just a thought but what do you think of bunny?

Bunny is one of my favorite people to play the game with because he knows how to read me. That said, he also is good at buddying me. I don't have a specific read on him yet this game. Most of my focus has been on you, ghug, and Frog (had to retype this b/c I kept calling him Fox lol)

Wow, I thought Will's play last game was good and I'm liking it this game too.

Just a Will Named Town.

I agree with that. He's the new Jeff Kuta.

On a different note, I also think it's odd that Frog wanted me to have five reads so early in the game and then did not want to pick five people to make me give reads on. Almost as if he was afraid to have to filter out mafia teammates.

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

I see. Thank you. I still dont know who Jeff Kuta is

[brainbomb]

I see. Thank you. I still dont know who Jeff Kuta is

none of us ever really knew Jeff Kuta

We only knew he was 100% Vanilla Townie ™

So brain, to clarify, you think me and Chaqa are a mafia pair?

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

So brain, to clarify, you think me and Chaqa are a mafia pair?

Or me and sweet. Cant really remember which one u chose

[brainbomb]

So brain, to clarify, you think me and Chaqa are a mafia pair?

I have a process every game of things I look for

It goes something like
Low volume and what they said
People who post mostly random stuff
People who seem way different than I remember
people who come off as disengaged
Lurkers
Guesstimations

And if none of that leads me to anything I truly beleive I will just vote along with my top townread even if its someone I dont necessarily scumread


at this juncture chaqa is doing alot of things to get me off his trail and everytime I want to stop looking his way I cant shake the feeling its an act.

For you I think im on the same guidelines I was/is with foodcoats scumread

People who post mostly random stuff
People who seem way different than I remember

I dont think you handled being pushed in a bad way necessarily. was odd to see you seek approval on if you looked confident or not.

[brainbomb]

i will not go
Beyond 100 posts before bozo and vecna post once. so thats my rationale on why you fit the mould of scum for me. Exact team composition is a challenge for me.

Have fun

While I don’t agree with the conclusion, I agree with the system to get that conclusion.

And I didn’t ask approval jus cuz. Didn’t really think it was a valid reason to scumread me.

I think you are thinking logically. Mafia want to appear that way. You are mafia. ——That’s basically how you decided I was mafia.

I think this is very poor rationale for leaving. This makes me think you wanted to find an excuse not to defend your point. The participation of others should not affect your participation.

[ghug]

I'm thinking

I feel like you arent actually thinking.
Conclude something.

You had no problem doing conclusions with BK last game. Gimme some ideas here. What is scum doing right now?

I'm confident chaqa is scum and after that I don't know where to look. It would make sense if Will is scum fabricating their read on me but I think they're more likely to just be silly town. I keep going over ghug because they remind me of bob from last game.

How do I remind you of Bob?
