FrostburnPhoenix: Also how are you supposed to do multiple quotes? I had to copy them by hand.
It seems like you figured it out. That's the only way afaik. Maybe there are web browser plugins for that, but I've never been so active as to be in need of that.

LordCephy: Is it weird that I think that cephalopods are really cute?

Ambiti0nZ: A bit. Those bald heads tend to be a lot more intelligent and aware than we give them credit, which has made me a lot more reticent about eating octopus in recent years despite being quite an enjoyable novelty for me while growing up.
I feel the same exact way about lobsters. They may be delicious aquatic bugs, but I've found them impossible to eat after reading that they are likewise more intelligent than given credit for.... plus the horrors they have to endure to end up on a dinner plate has turned me off from eating all crustaceans.


On a more positive note, isn't this really cute though ->

They flap those little fins on the side of their head when swimming.

babark: It's been a while since I've been here!

So...err...I don't remember or know most of you. I do, however...

vote RWarehall
Hi, hello. How are you? I hope everything is alright with you. Please update us on your wellbeing at the soonest.

FrostburnPhoenix: That with the fact I couldn't see why town would be so focused on my misread as below...

<snip>
OK...

So you don't see why Town would focus it? Instead you think Mafia would focus on it?

So Mafia!ZFR would find out you made a misread and presumably deduce you had a PR, and instead of quietly communicating it to his buddies (Day if they have Daychat, or Night), he'd publicly announce it to everyone, only to quickly after that say you're probably Town and remove the vote...

Oooookaaay.......

Anyway, I don't see any reason to press this further, since you're probably Town and even regardless of your alignment, you'd make a terrible lynch toDay (especially being reinforced with your newbie protection).

Didn't realise about the 48 hour rule, thanks for pinging me.
unvote RWarehall (Dash Rendar

vote Zac McKracken Ambitio0nZ)

I'm not sure what we're supposed to do in this first step. I very much doubt I'll be able to detectivate the baddie from all the chatting going on.

ZFR: Glad you asked. [ ~ snip for brevity ~ ]
Oh no...

ZFR: (OK, I did learn my lessons about outguessing the mod about the setup, so I won't really base my actions on the assumption that there is a neutral, unless we get more info later, but if it does turn out to be true than my bragging rights are in post 11).
Phew! I was just going to point out that to every "Columbo" side of a coin there is also that "fucking dumbass" other side but I'm glad I won't have to do it :) Thanks for sharing your suspicion, it's interesting and sounds reasonable enough to keep in mind just in case.


avatar
ZFR: The claim.
RIght. I feel the same even though I had the feeling even earlier as I kind of misunderstood what supposed slip you were after at first. I remember my very first game in which I spilled my role (actual role, not just that I have it) like it was my job after I made a mistake.

LordCephy: That just makes me feel worse like this is some private club that I invade.
Don't feel that way, please! First of all there is nothing private in this club - just a bunch of bozos trying to have good time by annoying each other but still laugh together about it in the end. It can be a bit overwhelming at start but I promise that if you stick it out you'll see the vast majority of the people here are fine and gentle folk. You'll get in gear as soon as you kill your first Townie if you're scum (shorthand for mafia) or you catch your first scum if you're Town.

LordCephy: I wouldn't suggest a no-lynch at all.
See? You're awesome! I don't even have to give you The Speech!

FrostburnPhoenix: Also how are you supposed to do multiple quotes? I had to copy them by hand.
I assume you don't have installed a couple of browser extensions that make the terrible forum software just a bit less so - Barefoot Essentials and Adalia Fundamentals. I don't remember which one is responsible for what but one has sort of in-line replying to each post which allows you to multi-quote 100x easier and the other allows you to search within the thread by username which is invaluable when you want to examine that user's posts (called ISO).

Does this mean you don't intend to participate unless pressed by the timer?

Is this RVS vote or are you going to explain yourself?

Ughh...those hanging close and open brackets in my post (and the no edit rule) are really itching at me.

I have no connection to the Revolutionary Military Soviet, but I switched my vote so that there wouldn't be 2 on Dash.

From the 150 posts made so far... any opinions, however small, on any of the people.

It's practically impossible, barring real major slips *coughAgentCarrcough*, to catch a baddie on D1. But the more we talk, the more info we have for later.

So, any general first opinions?

Don't be disheartened! I'm not going to lie, there will be in-jokes but please don't think they're out of a desire to exclude you or any other newbie. We're happy to have you here, so let us know if you're feeling confused or overwhelmed and we'll do our best to help.

I know Babark from somewhere but I can't remember from where. I've definitely seen him in the forums but since my exposure to the GOG forums is almost exclusively limited to the Mafia family of threads I'm not sure if it was in a game here, some of the Secret Santa threads or way, way back when I was hosting those 20Q games.

What I'm trying to understand is if Babark is a returning user to GOG Mafia or is he considered a newbie.

The sun moves another step across the painted, starry sky. From Somewhere the sound of heavy motorcycles racing by can be heard. But as much as Ben tries to, no motorcycle apart from the empty one can be seen. The sound dies away and only the monkeys can be heard chittering. Somewhere, unseen and unheard, a tree that has all the colours falls over. But no one notices.

3rd vote count

ZFR 2 - catte, frostburn
Catte 1 - bucktooth
Dedo 2 - joe, rware
Ambitionz 1 - babark
Rware 1 - Cephy

I hope I got everything right. I'm on mobile currently. That makes things complicated.

Okay, that is a little cute, but only because it looks like a plushie.

Microfish_1: Please don't feel you are invading. We are very glad to have you here and hope you enjoy it here.

For whomever was asking, nearly all abbreviations can be found here: https://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Commonly_Used_Abbreviations
I was about to vote for you for flying under the radar and then I remembered you're not in the game.



Mmmm... vote Microfish anyway.

ZFR: A slip that all (three) Mafiosi have roles.
Why'd you put the 'three' in brackets?
