Mafia 86: Accidents Happen... - Game Thread

[Vecna]

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.

sorry buddy, youre actually stuck with me again

[Vecna]

I suspect Vecna is mafia for going half of D1 without posting.

##Vote Bozo

The hypocrisy in this one post merits annihilation.

im pretty sure it was a decent joke

[Vecna]

That changes things a fair bit for me.

hows that?

I'm preflipping sweet as scum and it's giving me new stuff to work with.

absolutely brilliant post

[Vecna]

I don't see what foodcoats opinion has to do with anything; I think the veracity of my claim about chaqa and brainbomb is self-evident.

This is the snowy lite stuff I was reading last game.

snowy-lite is quite evocative.

Theres that good old rhethoric sticking its head out.

[Vecna]

Chaqa, do you think scum!Will is deliberately making big but repetitive posts in order to appear townie?

It's on my radar

The will posts are literally large jumbled posts made up of jokes.

The vecna read was literally about a she while i was yet to post.

trap card sprung much?

[Vecna]

The main reason I think they are more likely both scum is that Chaqa’s defense and following play after that fight do not at all appear to be townie, nor is it remotely reasonable to think Chaqa is unable to launch an ATE or threaten to sub out as scum. Brain even highlighted it himself: Chaqa has a very wide range. However, the “meta key” that is most interesting to me isn’t “scum!Chaqa could do this,” it’s “town!brain knows scum!Chaqa could do this, but brain accepted the ATE and has not launched a follow-up attack regarding Chaqa’s fading from the thread once the ATE was accepted.” This is an unusual tack from brain.

And now that I’ve written it out, I see how on balance brain is more likely than Chaqa to be scum in that scenario.

Well, the reason I voted for Chaqa is because I like to see bigger wagons competing earlier in the game, and there are several people who seemed willing to vote Chaqa, whereas a brain wagon doesn’t seem likely at this time. But since you’ve corrected my thinking, I will:

##VOTE brainbomb

"The main reason I think they are more likely both scum is that Chaqa’s defense and following play after that fight do not at all appear to be townie"

Could you explain why you feel that?

And what is an ATE?

I will come back to the first part as I’m going to do some more in-depth re-reading this morning, but an ATE is an Appeal To Emotion. Sorry - I thought that was pretty common “mafia parlance.”

it is very common and im surprised chaqa asked for clarification

Can you clarify what you mean here? Who was trapping who and what is the meaning of it in your opinion?

I thought you were trapping chaqa asking him about some obvious joke posts. And chaqa responding with a serious scumread while there was none to be gained from it.

Now im wondering if I actually read the rest of the readslist, or just did the egomanical thing and only read the readsection with my name

[Vecna]

(seeing how will got all defensivem over it)

[ghug]

Bozo is either scum here or deserves to be a policy flip.

There is no way a reasonable player, who has been absent, enters the game and in their first post accuses someone else of not posting.

Bozo, that is the scummiest post I HAVE EVER SEEN.

##Vote Bozo
##End

To the GT:

Holy shit he DID edit the post!! wtf?!

What the fuck, Jamie?

[ghug]

I think you are scum.

You have not found a reason to scumread brainbomb, and you have not found a solid reason to deathtunnel on someone yet?

You havent yet told me to stop being lazy and do my own research in at least 3 minutes of interacting.

Yeah. bad mojo

goddamn im good at this game.

##vote jamiet

this is not even a reactiontest. get in that coffin.

cya tomorrow

He's deathtunneling on Bozo for making a joke, if that helps.

##vote heart no particular reason

[Vecna]

it still reads as one big joke.

also, did damo just drop a readslist?

thats like a major bad flag

[ghug]

I'll be on for a bit as I catch up. Sorry for the absence, tonight's city council meeting was a long one.

They elected YOU to the City Council?

Haha no but I'm involved with urbanist and cycling advocacy. I might run in 2026 or 2028 to unseat one of the two more obstructive councilors, but who knows.

I'll help you make the ##VOTE Chaqa signs.

But in all honesty, this is strange

[JustAGuyNamedWill]

Lol we had the same conclusion

[ghug]

found him D1

To the GT:


Wasn’t the team that game Just-worcej-ghug-sweet? Didn’t they all bus each other like mad? Where’s Jamie to yell at them thst this doesn’t count?

That was M84, but in M83, Just was voting for sweetandcool when sweetandcool was shot D1, and ghug had also suspected sweetandcool. However, Just and ghug seem rather confident in their ability to identify sweetandcool as mafia based on D1 of M83, and that have yet to respond to my request to identify the criteria they are using to identify scum sweetandcool.

I think that slightly undersells my suspicion of sweet in that game. I came out of his shooting looking so good that his teammate shot me later in the day.

But anyway, it's really just vibes. He said something that felt slimy and fake, which is the same thing he did in M83 and the same thing I probably overindexed on when I bussed him in M84. I responded to the post that pinged me this game, though he hasn't done much of anything since.
