Re: Vocaroo Too! Mafia [Endgame]

Jack Benny (Sloonei)
Your money or your life? Just kidding, pal. You’ll stand there all day thinking it over. Say, what’s in that big vault of yours? No, no, I can assure you we are not interested in your money. Or your violin playing. But say, couldn’t you hide somebody in there to keep him safe? I’m sure you could! Trouble is, he couldn’t do much on the outside world if he’s trapped in there. Great! You can be the Civilian Jailor.

Fred Allen (JaggedJimmyJay)
Mr. Allen, you are a master ad-libber. You can find out when there’s a stowaway on a fifty-cent tour. And thanks to your Pasternak Factory Tested Pussy-Willow Mattress (which makes your back arch) and New York’s leading daily (that lines the bottom of your bird’s cage), you have an eye for bad sponsors and impostors You are the Vanilla Cop.

W.C. Fields (speedchuck)
You may hate children and you may hate dogs, but you aren’t a bad guy, are ya fella? Nah, you’re not. A guy who likes lemonade can’t be all that bad, now can he? The folks at home hope you like vanilla and civilians, because you are a Vanilla Civilian.

Freeman Gosden (Simon)
You Amos, and a Vanilla Civilian.

Charles Correll (Abigail)
You Andy. And a Vanilla Civilian.

Mel Blanc (dunya)
"Eh, what's up, doc?" You may be the man of a thousand voices, but you aren’t a doctor or anything of the sort. Mel, you’ve been a Maxwell automobile, a violin teacher, a parrot, a polar bear named Carmichael, and even a little Mexican, but this time around, you’re a Vanilla Civilian.

Dinah Shore (Elohcin)
Dinah Shore! You believe in the three Bs: Barrelhouse, Boogie-Woogie, and the Blues. You are “Mademoiselle Dinah ‘Diva’ Shore,” who starts a fire by rubbing two notes together! And on top of all that, you are a Vanilla Civilian!

Bob Hope (Spacedaisy)
Bob, you are a master of one-liners and self-depreciating humor. You are also a Vanilla Civilian.

George Burns (MovingPictures07)
Have a cigar, George. While college fraternities may not have appreciated you breaking up Guy Lombardo’s “Thirty Minutes of the Sweetest Music This Side of Heaven” with your routines, you eventually showed them! Still, you are but a Vanilla Civilian.

William Conrad (Marmot)
"I'm that man, Matt Dillon, United States Marshal -- the first man they look for and the last they want to meet. It's a chancy job, and it makes a man watchful . . . and a little lonely." You are the voice of Marshall Matt Dillon, who may make Gunsmoke, but you do so as a Vanilla Civilian.

Virginia Gregg (Kylemii)
You’ve met Sam Spade, Joe Friday, Marshall Matt Dillon, and even Jack Benny. You’re a real Jill-of-all-Trades, which makes you the perfect Vanilla Civilian.

Mafia
Orson Welles (DrWilgy)
Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows! And so do you, because you are the Mafia One-shot Janitor.

Edgar Bergen (Made)
You are the puppeteer in charge of Charlie McCarthy and Mortimer Snerd. You are a witty ventriloquist and capable of making other people look guilty. You are a Mafia Goon.

Gracie Allen (RadicalFuzz)
You can’t figure out if you are George Burns’ straight man or not. One thing is for sure- you aren’t playing straight. You are a Mafia Goon.

A word on Tink lying.

That was entirely her idea.

She is a liar. She's gotten in trouble for that. Many times.

So when I explained how heists work, she of course HAD to lie about something.

She even explained it to me this way: "I have to lie so the superheroes don't die."

You got it, gal. You got it.

So she lied and claimed cop and picked speedchuck and that's my girl.

A liar at heart.

honestly, never seen this role before. I like it though, it's a weakened down version of the alignment cop. Nice.
The idea is that, if you assume, as Jay did, that there's two power roles for the civilians, and one for the mafia, then you are torn between lynching your civilian power role or the mafia power role. I was hoping it came to that, but it didn't.

:srsnod:

It's one of the easiest ways to filter out mafia members in any game. Vocaroo made it even more pronounced.

The faster the pace, the more difficult the game for the bad guys. It's just the way the game works.
I'm going to say this is the shittiest "method" I've ever witnessed in my life.

Just because it worked here doesn't mean it's good practice.

Some of you talked just to talk or say things other people said many times. As a host, I wanted to pull my hair out.

You run the risk of alienating civilians too.

Don't act like posting a lot makes you super civilians. That wasn't why you won here.

Spamming the thread just to assure the post count rockets isn't the method. The posts still have to have some kind of function. Even repetitive posts have an important function, and in this case it was teamwork.

I can agree that it might annoy civilians who can't keep the pace. It infuriates mafia who can't keep the pace.
I have never lost as mafia because of post counts.

I HAVE won before because civilians value post counts.

There are exceptions to every rule. If you judge mafia teams in general by your own achievements, I think you're making a mistake. Also, I consider you to be a very skilled bad guy. I have never seen you detonate a post count list by tripling or quadrupling second place.
All I mean is that, if I were a civilian in this game, I would have said to hell with it.

Too much empty space and redundant arguments. Too much back and forth.

I only mean that I could see a civilian shutting down and and not being productive simply from lack of time.

Civilians flooding the thread didn't win this game is all I mean.

If you really want to hear what civilians have to say about this that and the other...

then don't make 70 posts for them to read / listen to.

Most of the time, those back and forth exchanges are shit anyway.

I only meant that some people could find it impossible to play the game. Hell, the only way I, the friggin host (not mafia!) was able to stay current was because snow killed work for three days, because I can't listen to posts at work. No puedo escuchar en el trabajo.

Truly, arguments about what makes the game fun or not fun -- those are meaningful and I will listen to them.

Good luck to anyone though trying to convince me that what dunya and I did in this game doesn't help civilians win the game. It isn't about voice versus text, it's about how the game of Mafia works on a message board forum.
Question: How would you have approached this game as a civilian if you had only thirty minutes a day to devote to it? Do you think you would get lynched far more easily than if you had more time?

Re: Vocaroo Too! Mafia [Endgame]

Your second scenario sounds just like Vocaroo Mafia 1.

Exactly.
Do you think I won Vocaroo Mafia I because thread activity was low?

It's not the sole reason you won, but it helped you. A more active thread facilitates a stronger civilian core (given enough opportunities with posts in the thread, they're going to tend to find each other more easily), and that will leave the people with no real civilian credit (such as but not limited to the guy with 20-some posts only providing half-relevant songs) exposed by process of elimination.

If you'd played in this game the exact same way you played in that one, you'd have been one of the people stuck in the POE pile as a candidate to be lynched.
If I played in this game the exact same way I played in that one, nothing I would have said would make any sense.

Re: Vocaroo Too! Mafia [Endgame]

I think this is venturing too far into the reductive fallacy territory.

When I play, regardless of alignment, I read everything before I post almost all of the time.

In this format (and yes, I think it's a format thing), I would have a hard time doing that. If I got lynched because I preferred to CATCH UP and it left me out of some exclusive club, I would mutter a hex on all of you.

I can't tell you how many games I've hosted where some civilians gave up because they couldn't keep up.

And I don't want to know how many games I played where the same was true.

It was S~V~S who told me something that changed the way I operate as a civilian, and it was for the best. These might not be her exact words, and I haven't always followed them, but she said something like: Listen more than you talk.

I won a hell of a lot more as a civilian by watching than I did by talking.

That's a loose guideline, granted, because your activity is going to be relative to everyone else's. But me having a back and forth with DharmaHelper never did anybody any good. And this game makes me wonder how much damage my back-and-forths have caused.

Not to intervene too much in this discussion (just here to pick up the results for the HoF), but I think we all know how that game was lost, the answer being human idiocy. From what I can tell, the civilians eliminated such an element from this game rather early on.

You would have not won the endgame with me alive and informed as a tracker. As in, 0% odds. Alternatively, you would have had very diminished odds to win alongside a confirmed (outed) civilian and a strong (however misguided in general) profile of a hunter throughout the game in a last 3 scenario.
Yep.

And I completely defended you. :feb:

There's a place for that.

If everybody does it, there's no thread.
Listen more than you talk.

Not "not talk."

Re: Vocaroo Too! Mafia [Endgame]

How many times can you remember that someone said "Epignosis is quieter than usual?"

People have been saying that for literally years.

I made a reputation and when I go quiet, people assume I'm bad or up to something.

Well, I'm always up to something, but there you are.
