MAFIA 48 -The Gladiator- GAME THREAD [HIDDEN]

[Chaqa]

I'd like to get Vecna and Jamie's opinion on the list before beginning the process.

[yuuki]

Possible scenarios of this ridiculous notion:

1) Every single person out there claims VT. This is the most obvious thing that can happen and probably what would happen and why this mass claim thing is such a bad idea right now. There is no legitimate reason at this point for a PR to out him-herself this early in the game. We are in the same place as if this topic had never been discussed except with a few more neurons alive.
2) Our PRs are noobs and claim. Mafia kills them easily with their OP powers and there are never any missed NKs or bodyguard kills. Town loses.
3) Town PRs fakeclaim their role and end up lynching each other. It would actually be optimal for a crappy role like roleblocker to claim bodyguard in order to get jailed while the actual bodyguard protects some of the other PRs. Problem is whoever fakeclaims is going to get suspected by the real PR and then will end up thinking the fakeclaimer is scum. Town ends up losing.
4) Mafia fakeclaim and then use their powers to clear themselves which will lead us to mislynch our bodyguard. We catch one scum in the process but we have no bodyguard, the bodyguard also does a late day vote into another PR like the gladiator and the emperor thumbs down. The rest of our PRs are also exposed, we are out of challenges as town since our other gladiator will have to challenge the fakeclaimer and pretty much screwed for the rest of the game. This is the least bad possible outcome and even then it sucks.

That's it. Can someone please explain why we are even talking about this?

Enough with the scumminess. I think Vecna Jamie and Chaqa are trying to derail us from scumhunting for reasons I cannot fathom.

Vote Percy, free the town from scum

[yuuki]

What is wrong with you?

That is something many doctors, therapists, and jilted lovers have failed to establish over many years of trying, Yuuki. It's a lost cause.

I wish I could +1 this post so many times.

me too

Damn, dat Yukki boi, he FIERCE.

[Jamiet99uk]

My opinion is that although I did not object to this idea, Chaqa, I don't think it's going to happen because too many people oppose it.

Vecna may have other ideas.

[worcej]

When is damo this focused and throwing out this many of his own, original thoughts. Its almost concerning.

I do like it though, if you are town, please keep this up.

It isn’t uncommon for a read or feeling to come out from him, but his frequency is different for sure.

[worcej]

worcej also looks very bad for voting Hosuke Day 1 and not Day 2.

Damo, RHK, Ike, Vapor all pretty much town.

Not to shit on your bad point, but you are wrong about this.

[Vaporwave]

dat Yukki boi, he FIERCE.

are you sure he's a boy? I'm kinda hoping yuuki will be this game's female warrior. We haven't had one since Durga left the games

also welcome back, Cara. I've missed you

[worcej]

who jails a player 2 times in a row out of sheer pleasure?

Also, now I'm

The jailor has limited purpose.

[worcej]

For worcej:

Day 1

Prado (5) xorxes foodcoats Jamiet* Temasek emc
yuuki (3) Hosuke Chaqa Nephthys
Hosuke (3) Demon worcej damo
Chaqa (3) rdrivera yuuki Vecna
Jamiet (2) Vapor Prado
Vapor (1) Carambola
Demon (1) Percy
No‑Lynch (1) Ike

Day 2

Hosuke (7) Demon damo Ike Vapor Jamiet rdrivera Vecna
damo (4) worcej Hosuke yuuki Chaqa
Chaqa (3) xorxes Temasek Percy
Jamiet (2) Nephthys Carambola
rdrivera (1) emc

glad you got motivated now.

[worcej]

will come back later with a vengeance

anyway,

I'm glad Chaqa has been left untouched (rather me than him) but this might point to an absentee from our rival team given how jail options can be chosen during day

I think someone who hasn't appeared after Chaqa's reveal might be mafia hooker, although this is pure speculation.

I can't see them missing this opportunity to jail Chaqa unless they feel confident in winning and they're just mocking us

Bodyguards a thing though.

At any rate, scum using their knife on you is really a shitty choice, but im glad they did.

Wait, where did vapor imply he got knifed?

[Jamiet99uk]

Wait, where did vapor imply he got knifed?

You've got a lot of catching up to do huh?

It was in one of his first posts at the start of day, he posted a link to a GIF which rather graphically shows a man being stabbed.

[worcej]

when did vapor say he was stabbed?

He didn't, but he posted a pretty explicit gif.

I don’t open links, so that explains why I missed it.

Yeah I am pretty far behind...

[Chaqa]

This whole interaction feels forced AF.

Worc/Yuuki/Damo/Tem scumteam solved gg

don't think it's Yuuki,

damo might be screwing all of you in the booty

Tem has been probably set up by Scumsuke

as for worcej, he's a wild horse so maybe you're right.

[Chaqa]

To be fair, there's so many damn lurkers it's hard to have a good grasp on things.

[Vaporwave]

Vaporwave: stabbed town (apparently). he has been my strongest townread since N1 so it's a shame he has been stabbed.

would yuuki be that unscrupulous as a person to caress me with his right hand while stabbing me with his left hand?

No, it can't be. I see no scum motivation for him to fake this sympathetic post

[worcej]

I am a beacon of hope in a land of darkness.
And now, actually, to bed.

Why is our situation so bleak to you when you posted this?
