Shit, when did we come back? I'm at work so I might not be able to read and post consistently but I might be able to catch up over my lunch break.

Scene and Atlo, how many games of mafia do you have already played, roughly ?

This would be my first forum mafia game.
Other social deduction games: About a dozen of Warcraft3 custom ''Mafia'' maps, before Blizzard went full ''Refunded''. >:/
Tried Town of Salem a handful of times. That is pretty much the complete opposite of forum mafia. ''Here's 1minute; here's 10 players writing simultaneously; try to process what each is saying; try to process how it compares to what others are saying; try to process how it compares to what each said the day before; Go! Good luck.''

You can consider me on Frost's wagon, I just withheld my vote at dedo's request and wasn't online around the EoD.

Who?

*bows in acknowledgement of your wisdom*
I was only looking at it from the point of view of protecting the night powers.

Because of our game theme, I'm going to have to refer to you as Senpai Lift for the rest of the game. There's always something to learn from you.


And here I thought I was the one that played crazy fast games.
My prior experience involved games on 12-hour day/night cycle.

I just wondered if any Cop found a Scum in the night. Could they either out him or preferably just suspect him strongly throughout the day so we have an easier breadcrumb in case you die overnight.

5-6 games, but all but 2 I either got lynched within 2 days or get night killed on Day 1. The other game I was lynched on day 3. So I'm not that familiar with the power roles and which tactics to use with them.

Role fishing again, Scene? If a hypothetical cop would have a positive hit, they would have said so by now. Or decided not to share their result for some undisclosed reason. The point is, it is their decision when to reveal themselves. To call for a cop to make themselves more visible is very scummy! Why are you so interested in knowing who the hypothetical cop is?


I'm still waiting for a reply from Joe. But at the moment both him and scene are votable for me.

Telika, however, had some useful and pro -town looking analysis today and is leaning Town for me.

I have to agree with Sensei Lift because all Mafia are still present in the game.

It would be one thing to for a Cop to come forward on Day 2 if all of the following were true:
1. We lynched a Mafia on Day 1.
2. Cop found the identity of some other Mafia on Night 1.


Scene may as well ask if there's a Doctor in the house while he's at it.

You're the one who wanted the Mason to roleclaim in order for their to be more roles to be targeted over vanillas. Which is what a mason now becomes. Catventurer had to school myself at least that this was a very bad anti town idea.

Protecting Roles>Confirmed Town. Yet you want to not protect roles by getting the Mason to roleclaim. This is Anti-Town and I suppose you think you're being clever in reducing the odds of Scum hitting a power role

If we have a regular Cop who has found Scum he should breadcrumb or claim. That's a given. We have new players who may not be aware of how to go about this.

The Cop can also be protected by a Doctor if they have found Scum anyway. So Scum targeting them may see no night kill. This would be a big win for town.

If the Cop hasn't found Scum they should not claim obviously

Another Scummy thing you've done is want to vote for an absent player in Joe, who should be subbed out by a MOD, who we have absolutely zero info about. Most Mods would of subbed Joe by now.

I wouldn't fault Pooka for having not subbed Joe considering how long it took for there to be enough players for this game to start. There could be an issue with alternates being available.

I want to read more opinions about a mason claim.

Who's missing, and why ? JoeSapphire ? Dedoporno ? Csanjuro ?

What do you do when you get lynched or night killed ? You keep following the thread and participating in its guessing games, or you consider it game over and turn your attention away ?

And Bucktooth. How big is your experience of mafia games ?

I have played maybe 10 games total in my life. Usually got assigned Vanilla when on town so my first hand familiarity with power roles is quite limited. Even with the Mason flip on AmbitionZ I had to search the mafiascum wiki to remember what they do. I have been lucky enough to last long enough in some games to see it to the end, so I have some first hand experience in handling late game decisions when the player count is low.

in case you planned to ask the same followup you asked Telika, if I do get knocked out early my attention of the game does drop pretty significantly, maybe checking in once a week to see where the game is at.
