Aspiring Rapper's MAFIA- Game Thread

[Arakhor]

I thought I was bad at the whole charisma thing
Always good to know there are people worse than me

There's always me.

Seriously though, even if you ignore this site's rules about talking about who you have on your ignore list, bragging about how you routinely ignore people in a game all about social interaction and then overreacting when you get called out on it is definitely not the best way to ingratiate yourself on a new forum.

This backbrother stuff between Glossy and Lassie makes me really uneasy though. Masons tend to die quickly around here.

 

[Visorslash]

oh and add Cass_ to that list as well

I also have a town lean on Auto

and a mild one on BSmith upon reflection

 

[Cuthillius]

As for accusations that I'm throwing my lynch vote around opportunistically, is there actually any evidence for that?

Throwing one's vote around looks like this.

It was EoD. Anonymous crept up, and looked around. Everyone was voting for one of four people to be hanged. He was shocked. One of them was his very own scumbuddy. Wiping a tear from his eye, he ran down and put a vote on one of the other wagons with shaky reasoning. Mister Bicep told him that was bad reasoning. He apologized and switched to another wagon. After a while, another townsperson voted for his buddy! This panicked him, so he threw another vote on the other highest wagon "because he really thought it was more scummy".


My vote is changing fairly often, yes, which means you can be assured that I'll have it on my strongest lynch suspect at EoD.

 

[Arakhor]

Why exactly am I wolfy, Visor? You tend to think that of me a lot.

You have a town lean on Autolycus after his single post? That's reaching rather a lot, wouldn't you say?

 

[Cuthillius]

Cuth, I remember you saying "can we PLEASE lynch edse now"

yet you literally haven't followed that up, it came absolutely out of the blue

Edse's still on the list.

Should I make sure to only vote people that you or other trustworthy are talking about and think should be lynched?

 

[Glossysushi]

I'm a girl, FYI. Though sushi is an it. :')

 

[Lassie]

I've also gotten more suspiscious of Arakhor clining to his random thing and refusal to participate in hunting, which I know he can actually do and can be good at it.

So wolfy people:
Cuth
Arakhor
Zack
Newyn


Cuth could honestly just be the most wolfy villager of all time

but some of the things he's said is just mindblowing wolfy

His quick response is actually pretty good, and I also see now that he didn't unvote me directly when I proved him wrong on the Cass thing, but first a few posts after(but still within short time though).

So actually unvote

and back to vote KingMorgan

 

[Cuthillius]

Correction, he didn't unvote and vote for someone else in the last post I quoted, but he did it in this post, right after:

i'm sorry if you'd rather I not try to pressure and read various scummy people, but I'm not going to stop

 

[Lassie]

Cuth is being towny right now

 

[Visorslash]

As for accusations that I'm throwing my lynch vote around opportunistically, is there actually any evidence for that?

yes, I was flavour of the month, lassie was flavour of the month, iirc there is another vote there, edse also came and went quickly, choxorn was also another vote

none of these ever seemed solid from you

Why exactly am I wolfy, Visor? You tend to think that of me a lot.

You have a town lean on Autolycus after his single post? That's reaching rather a lot, wouldn't you say?

I have a town lean on Autolycus because of a few things:
1. the vote target - if auto mafia and zack town that's a bad vote to make, especially when you won't be around to defend it

also, the target is one of my scumleans so thats also a plus

2. the tone reads town autolycus to me

3. yolo

you do tend to me scum opposite me a lot so fair's fair

 

[Glossysushi]

Lassie. His quick response isn't necessarily good. Why KM>Cuth?

Also, visor. I thought you said you wanted to give him more time?

 

[Visorslash]

I still don't want to lynch KingMorgan today

 

[Visorslash]

Lassie. His quick response isn't necessarily good. Why KM>Cuth?

Also, visor. I thought you said you wanted to give him more time?

That was then

this is now

Again, you're all highly exaggerating the meaning of me temporarily blocking Zack(who btw, is unblocked at this point). Discussing it shouldn't be part of the game - if you're much against it, save that opinion for post game. People who have voted me with that as reasoning, have already proven it's not a way of solving the game correctly(at least, that's what I can say, knowing that I'm town).

 

[Cuthillius]

I started accusations on you, iirc, or was the first person to vote you for that particular thing, Lassie, potentially, but I felt that something needed to be there. He was and still is fairly null to me, but with the reaction to Zack and other things I wanted to see what would happen with that vote.

Choxorn used to be flavor of the month, but he's gone out of style.

nobody else was talking about edse, particularly, or they were townreading him.

He was null before I made that case, and while his reaction doesn't clear him, although I like it, it's still enough that he isn't my prefered lynch anymore. + I realized he didn't unvote me as directly as I remembered/thought, which is in small details though, but still worth to mention now that was my only real case against him.

Want me to give you a lecture?

I'll go for it.

RE: Flipflopping, town or scum behavior?

Flipflopping is often seen as a scummy behavior. Why won't you make up your mind? Why are you backpedaling?

However, consider this.

As a town member, especially vanilla town, at the start of the game, you only have your role PM info. That... You're town.

As VT, for the rest of the game, you have no other info from the mod. Glgl, now it's up to you to use your brain and solve this game. That's why nothing's definite, except for your own alignment and role.

You approach the game that way. You have no other choice. Thus, when someone you're reading town does something suspicious? You don't know for sure they're town, so you question them. If they don't answer satisfactorily, you can change your read to scum.
On the reverse side, if someone you're reading scum starts to be towny, what do you do? You don't know for sure that they're scum, so you reevaluate as well.

Now, with perfect (or nearly perfect) information, for instance, as cop or as scum? What happens? Reads don't change much, and it's a lot more process of elimination driven. Oops, I'm wrong. Let's try again. Oops, again. Or, oh, you seem to have good reads. I trust your judgement. I'll vote with you on people I don't have info on.

It's hard to naturally fake the same amount of uncertainty with PIS, and when there's uncertainty, it seems more opportunistic than townie, because you know far more. Your info creates how you play in every case, and you just happen to have more than most other people in the game. It's noticeable.
