MAFIA 48 -The Gladiator- GAME THREAD [HIDDEN]

[RagingIke297]

I still remember EMC and his attention to detail in his first game. How he would post like a quadrant with axis of how people played. He had pretty much everyone figured out to some extent. Loads of attention to detail, pretty sharp overall.

And now we get "where did vapor claim"?

Oh god, this hurts. I did claim motivational constipation, but ahg.

I don't suppose I can give the excuse of having an irrational avoidance of interacting with Ike in any form coz vague guiltiness due to finding out the terrible shitty fanfic I wrote on him from like a month ago apparently wasn't that far off from reality? :|

Wait what?

Was this something you posted on here?

Was it because of something I did? Was it meant to be spiteful? I have so many questions....

He should post it here so we can all judge whether or not his constipation is warranted.

Agreed

You aren't hiding very well EMC, I can see you. I promise I'm much less raging than I previously was

[e.m.c^42]

I should do that, yes.

let's go write something up on Neph and Percy and the rest, give me some time.

I want to say Vecna's prolly town/3p being set up, or scum thinks he may be latter and avoiding targeting him due to chances (if xorxes is town and not another alignment he actually played it off pretty well, and bought himself a good few days of survival due to scum being wary of wasting a NK), but the NK choices do feel...dunno, vecna-y or someone trying to think like him. He's the type to avoid obvious targets in order to wifom/pr hunt, and it is worth noting that he was the first to find the foodcoats nk obvious - a certain type of logic, to say.

Going off of this, assuming he isn't scum and it's intentionally planned for chaos, there's probably at least one person on scum team who can pull off the yomi levels shit like him. Out of our available pools; Neph I think, given proper motivation, is intelligent to brute-force it, and he's good enough at reading overall as well as details, rather than intuition-type. Chaqa, although kinda low effort, from getting to know him over discord, there's a type of sweet sweet ruthless analysis under the "lazy-but-not-really, just busy" skin he pulls. This probably sounds weird but his diplomacy moves make similar logic jumps as Vecna does in mafia.

rivera is another possibility, but he doesn't feel like someone who'd lead scum planning lmao.

xorxes actually, I don't think, fits this criteria - he'd be less mind games and more pragmatism.

Assuming it's not intentional, all of the above is pretty useless lol

[e.m.c^42]

admitting to that was a mistake, fuck dammit, wish we could edit posts.

##GM NOTE

There was a ##Call GM from on page 93. The question asked if the Jailer could jail the same player night after night. The answer is, yes.

If it's worse than what happened IRL then I can be happy it's not that bad, if it's better than what happened IRL then you don't need to feel bad. I see you posting it as an absolute win

[rdrivera2005]

Well, sorry for being away most of the weekend but it was a pretty busy one for me. The good part was that there isn't much to read since yesterday.

I find weird Chaqa is still alive, not sure why scum will leave the cop alive unless his reads are really shit. Anyway, this will be sorted sooner or later.

My POE for today are Temasek, Xorxes and emc.

Temasek for avoiding voting for Hosuke after all that scum reading and such with Hosuke.

Xorxes because he just started to scumred me after I vote him and because I just can't see much of a town motivation on that Survivor thing he pulled. He now seems to be trying to set me up for a myslynch and this is something I can see Xorxes doing.

EMC for the push into Prado and for lacking that something that usually make him obvtown. And he is also subtly pushing me as scum, something that I would expect if he is scum with Xorxes.

How is emc pushing you as scum? If anything, what he said about you seems to want to exonerate you.

Yeah ok, you deserve a full explanation, going to apologize ahead of time lol

remember that Dreamland game ND also GM'd, and then brain's minigame afterwards? this stuff

So it started as shits and giggles, but then got invested into writing it and added a plot, which lead to adding angst and other issues as stress relief, and somewhat actual dedication into creating something. the plot came out...well, similar enough to your situation irl - and fucking hell man, how does one not feel awkward or vaguely guilty of being really insensitive, even though logic excuses it by the fact that I didn't know anything at the time.

So no, will not post it anytime soon, but if you want an idea of just how much time I devoted into that thing, this was part of the draft outline

[e.m.c^42]

tl;dr
sorry again
my activity in mafia will probably be growing exponentially from now on, since there's a large chuck of time freed up again

He stated more then once that there is something off about me, but never really interacted with me, even when I directly addressed him. For me this is shading, sensing if I am a viable wagon. Something you do pretty well as scum...

[rdrivera2005]

And I don't have a clue about what's happening between emc and Ike.

Like I said before, I would highly encourage our Gladiator to challenge Tem so we can get two lynches in today (unless I misunderstand how the role works)

haven't interacted with pretty much everyone this game, probably missed that lol

but it's only ever been one thing (pretty much activity/post content and gut feel), just restated as I haven't really found anything else - which is why I actually found xorxes a bit suspicious, for sharing somewhat similar viewpoints (prado you something i can't recall atm) since I'm probably not right.

[e.m.c^42]

Good, stay that way, it's not particularly relevant to game

Don't we have several?
