Aspiring Rapper's MAFIA- Game Thread

I'm not confident about lynching King Morgan yet, but he's dropped a bit for me. Mostly for that weird post against Cuth using 'we' that sounded a lot less like a joke and more a cheap jab at an easy target. It looks jovial, but it's kind of strained.

I just checked this, he seemed to make that post against landlubber.
 
@Lassie because I forgot to provide it and it may be difficult to see

This is Sushi's 26 page wolf ISO from the game I linked.

I have no idea how to check how many posts she had wrt others.

Also, just remembered that I already linked you to/you already commented on that game wrt suspicion on Sushi :undecide: .
 
@Cass_
" but lololol at you if you read her Town based solely on post count and effort."
I'm not solely doing it on that reasoning. As I even stated in the posts you quoted from me, it's also based on being able to follow her thoughts and her progression.
I may have read too little of the scum game of hers that you linked(I read part of it last time you or someone else linked it) - but I didn't see her being as active as in this, not as dominant and solvy in attitude either, and as I recall a post of hers where she even excused activity(something about being in another game as well), which I doubt we'll see any of here.
 
can you show me the part that she asked you to answer? i didn't see it in the post above, maybe didn't read carefully enough though.

1) That was a reaction test, and you did not pass
2) I voted you for several reasons
2a) I trust Zack's judgement
2b) I trust my own judgement too
2c) You're making scummy posts
2d) Again, it was a reaction test
2e) Ignoring someone is not a good solution. Actively blocking the posts of anyone you disagree with is not going to help town at all. If anything, just muster enough self-control not to respond or something if that's what you're worrying about.
3) You reacted in a very strange and (as Zack pointed out, but I won't blame you for not excusing yourself because you couldn't see it) are panicking quite a bit compared to the amount of real pressure that's on you. Why is this?

That's a fine list, unfortunately you're wrong. And sure, here is the part where she asked me to comment on her new vote:

"and would like to see what others have said/have more people weigh in on Choxorn, especially:

Edse
Visor
Lassie
Zack
Glossy
Mat
Cuth"
 
Also Cuth, how did I not pass that so called "reaction test"? And how was it just a reaction test if you actually think I'm scummy and trusts Zack's judgmenet?
A vote because you think I'm scummy isn't a reaction test, it's a vote.

I find it unnatural for you to make up that whole list in defense of voting, me when I simply ask into your reasoning.
 
There's really no reason for this edgy attitude of yours. Welcome on my ignore list(hopefully there is one).

re: this reaction to a single mildly snarky comment from Zack, usually it's best, especially over the internet, to operate under the assumption that others are not actually trying to offend you or get under your skin. That way, when you get annoyed at something like this, you can step back a little bit from it and see that there was no real ill intent or personal attack involved (I certainly don't see why it should be interpreted as such in this case) instead of literally ignoring a fellow player in a game you're in. Some people tend to be more sarcastic/snarky in their posts, and that doesn't mean that they're trying to be mean, and it's usually a lot easier to avoid compromising the enjoyability of a game to hurt feelings when you put in the effort not to take things personally.
 
I try not to be completely one-dimensional about playing mafia.

It isn't over yet. But you got very prickly and then demanded that I got back in right away, and I just don't see the way it all happened as super towny.

It's not a defense, it's an attack. It's a probe, and a way to test your reactions and what you're saying.

ah, ok

i misread it as those being the people choxorn had talked about, i think

"This message is hidden because Zack is on your ignore list."
From experience, I know it's for the best to ignore people with childish attitudes. Even if you're scum and it's part of your "tactic", you shouldn't resort to it. Keep the games nice and friendly. My response was actually genuine, that I wanted to see if you'd still consider me scum, if you went and did an ISO on me - cause I doubt you or anyone would after doing that.
I will try to explain myself, then:

Spoiler :
I did not insult you or call you names. I made fun of the whiny nature of your post, which imo comes off as somewhat condescending and elitist. You didn't take me seriously and responded petulantly. You laughed in my face and called yourself uber-townie in the middle of an outburst, which I honestly found kinda pathetic, and thus mocked.

It sounds harsh, but that is the version of my reaction to #884 which doesn't use cry smilies.

If you feel I went overboard and genuinely hurt you, then I apologize.

Heh, I usually block people if their attitude is bad towards me and I sense they are not willing to answer me in any constructive way. This was the case with Zack. Eventually I lift the block again, and usually it helps on people's attitude towards me, while also letting me concentrate and enjoy the game more, compared to the cases where I don't block such people.
No biggie

I see, tbf it was first on my second read of it, that I understood that she was prompting me for an answer. At first look I just thought it was her scum list. So makes sense to me, that you may have missed it too.

:sad:

so you're the arbiter of these discussions and will just cut people off in a rude and game-hurting fashion rather than either just avoiding engaging in discussion or trying to cooperate? you decide when someone "isn't playing nice" and just cut them off completely, in the hopes that it will improve their attitude?
 
Heading out soon so this will be the last post from me until at least later tonight. Also, I've just been reminded that family are coming to stay Feb 4 - 9 Australia time. I won't be as active during that time.

If anything you should be more active then. ;)
 
I'm probably the most obvious town here, and that's not just based on knowing that I am - objectively, I'm the one doing the most solving, sharing the most thoughts, reading the thread and doing ISO's the most.

I see what Zack saw in this post to be honest, but I think it is just righteous indignation from Lassie who isn't getting what he percieves is correct.

Its generally a townie behaviour, though admittedly not useful in the slightest.

It's not really rude or game hurting to block someone when they show no interest in communicating with you in a constructive way. As mentioned, it just allows me to enjoy the game more, there's 25 other players to talk with and look at posts from. If Zack was a main wagon close to EOD, I wouldn't block him, in case he claims or whatever - but that's not the case here.
 
Yep. Lassie as a strong town read for frustration level. Very towny emotion to have in my experience and not as easy to fake as wolf I think.
 
I apologized while you keep bashing me while ignoring me - who's showing no interest in communicating in a constructive way?
 
Also, yes, it is rude. Very rude. Would not be acceptable behaviour at all around a gaming table to ignore another player. Shouldn't fly on the web either.

Idk, I think it can be mafia behavior. I know I've definitely gotten mad as scum because people wanted to lynch me for what I perceived to be the wrong reason(s).
