[VOTE: jack] aubergine same reason this is a crazy coincidence

[VOTE: DDL] aubergine

He hasn’t posted enough in several years. Wolfy af.

[S~V~S]

What is Trails, and Elmo Village?

Hi yall,
Are we allowed to claim in this game?

Probably not a great idea, this sounds a bit like a Serial Soup Killer.

- Silly Serial Kill - At night, you may select a player and choose either a role OR one of the messages provided in the previous end of night post. IF that player is correctly chosen as that non-vanilla role OR the submitter of said message they will be night killed. This night kill will be strongmaned and may not be prevented.

[Jackofhearts2005]

Actually just thought of something.

[VOTE: Jack] aubergine

Will remove the vote if he makes sufficient progress in his Trails playthrough at discord.

I was gonna say finish Chapter 3, but that's a bit too much for 48h, so let's say the requirement is to arrive at Elmo Village. Should be easy enough.

lol nope I’m playing Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog tonight.

It’s an anime video game about boobs. DDL is big into it.

[S~V~S]

Well then I’m surprised we even see him at all.

[Jackofhearts2005]

Reading the ssk role, I’m not sure how that would ever achieve parity without an insane amount of good and bad luck but w/e not my problem.

[Jackofhearts2005]

Scotty, LC and SVS need new avatars, too.

And your Bestelle avatar is perfect (though you're stealing my idea) so imma remove the vote for now.

[VOTE: falcon] aubergine

I used to have fun bickering with him. Let's see if we can do this again.

Well then I’m surprised we even see him at all.

(that's a joke, it's not about boobs)

???? What do you mean?

[sig]

I’m alive and here, kinda.

Also seperate note I swear it said 10 posts per day when I checked the thread earlier really quick. So I’m prob going crazy.

Expect more from me tomorrow.

[Jackofhearts2005]

???? What do you mean?

Well me and DDL and Porscha and Michelle all have new avatars so

[Scotty]

Does it count as angle-shooting to suspect the people who joined the landingzone discord but did not bother to post in this thread?

yes

Also it’s quite meaningless to read into, as people join and don’t participate early or often all the time

Wow, I did miss that, thanks. Totally intuited identifying the quote only and not the role.

In any case, I’m still down to claim if it comes down to it because yolo

bite me
no don’t I’m actually quite sensitive

[Scotty]

Jack’s entrance to the thread is deadass butt

[Scotty]

Ok mech note:

This game favors the mafia at face value if mafia exactly repeat the death of a player they are killing and making it ‘NK player has been killed and was vanilla civ’.

It’s mostly a waste to use someone else that isn’t dead because they’ll still appear in the poll. So it’s only adding chaos for town to be info-leaning in their fake post.

It’s basically a free janitor, unless I’m reading it wrong. So that’s cool for them.

[Porscha]

He laid some shade on everyone who was nice to him.

You made it sound incredibly mean lmao.

(Sorry for being mean. In case anyone was offended by my posts)

So here is the thing. For those who don't know me, DDL Scumhunting 101: I post whatever shit comes in my mind, even if it's shit. Especially if it's shit. So while I WAS weirded out by everyone saying the same thing at once, I also decided to ignore the part of my head saying this has near zero usefulness as evidence of alignment and post it anyway. Because I enjoy it. And because maybe it would get the thread going.

Alas, the thread did not get going. I guess I'll let someone else try next.

Nah, I didn't think it was mean. Pocketing people is a thing. But so is nostalgia.

And the thread did get going.

What exactly in the thread got going?

DDL looks good for his paranoia of everyone else.
I’m far more suspicious of, I guess, Porscha. For making baseline comments of things followed by a light chuckle.

Like, in real life, I’m imagining the cashier at the gas station ringing me up, commenting ‘weird car out there’ and chuckling softly to themself.

it’s a security blanket. WHAT DO YA NEED THE BLANKET FOR, PORSCHA?

lol

I dont know what this means scotty, I shit posted n0 like everybody else who bothered to even post and now i'm here

[Porscha]

scotty have you considered not yolo'ing your role for the serial killer for fun or also not giving the wolves ideas (I dont know if it's a good one, you just talk like it is so I assume it is)

[Michelle]

LC seems unassuming. Maybe a bit too blendy.

Nah, just blendy enough! Trust me bro.

I forgot about the game

But catching up I find the coloured part suspicious

Disguised as a joke, the idea of trust in mafia is pretty dangerous.

[Michelle]

I should read the OP..

After work tho

[Porscha]

I should read the OP..

After work tho

I also should but I dunno when I really will tbh lol. maybe tomorrow night after work

also yes long con , per usual, sounds wolfy

I have only been right on the read once thoughtso I guess i'm just destined to paranoid cop long con for eternity

It was 10 for zero, rules say 80 post cap.

LC seems unassuming. Maybe a bit too blendy.

I don’t have any weird marks for Roxy with her YouTube farts

SVS at face value is civ-like. Part of the thread, seems engaged for sake of engagement and not because she has to. If that makes sense.

Sig speaks for himself

Sig hadn't made any posts when you said this? He's only made one post, that one up there ^^ a few hours after this. Did I miss some context?

But you don't have to use it for that, a faux host post. You can say whatever you like as i read it. You can anon info dump, or whatever. Like "There is a cop in this game" , or "Player X is Mafia". Although that could help the bads, especially early days. And you'd have to be really careful about wording as blandly as possible.

Based on their own roles, the baddies will know we have one of two possible set ups. It will also be harder for the SK if they don't know which set up we have. So if you insist on yoloing, wait until there has been a PR flip. But i don't see how town benefits from any pre flip claims.

I was assuming that people would be using it for fake claiming, to keep the wolves in the dark as long as possible, and fake out the SK. It's a chaos element (have you met Wilgy?) and "Player X is dead, he's Vanilla Civ" times 12 is kinda meh.

Unless I am misunderstanding your point. Which is hella possible lol.

I change it maybe once every 3-4 years, I'm not there yet. I really like this one, so imma hang onto it.

Isn’t Scotty softing a pr, there be masons in this matrix and also slips don’t actually exist.

[Jackofhearts2005]

It would be really funny if the math worked out to us always being in world 2 or 6 and the host dying was fr the 2 shot doctor but that’s not the world we’re living in. It’s just the kinda thing I’d do that would drive Jay nuts.

[Scotty]

scotty have you considered not yolo'ing your role for the serial killer for fun or also not giving the wolves ideas (I dont know if it's a good one, you just talk like it is so I assume it is)

I have considered. Your concern is noted, albeit I’m not convinced it isn’t a feigned concern. Like even the backpedaling where you presume it’s a bad idea but then in the same breath seem to push the philosophy that maybe it’s good because I think it is…rings hollow

[Scotty]

LC seems unassuming. Maybe a bit too blendy.

Nah, just blendy enough! Trust me bro.

I’d let him watch my kids.

I don’t have kids, but that’s besides the point

Ah, there’s a better use for town, for sure. I just figured anyone can put anything and even if an info role put their true info in there, the advent of chaos just decreases the viability for town usefulness on the whole.

Like if we were playing a D&D campaign and every player but 1 was playing chaotic neutral, the main quest would be completed in spite of the chaos machines.

[Scotty]

Unironically think DDL is the civ-iest person this game.

Still haven’t checked in:
-falcon
-splints
-TSP

Checked in but haven’t really integrated into the game:
-sig
-Roxy

Has made 3 posts with one ‘is suspicious’ post about LC:
-Michelle

Has presence in the thread but a bit blendy or questionable in terms of content:
-Porscha
-Jack

Has presence in the thread and is memorable:
-SVS
-LC
-DDL


I know it’s still early yet but that’s where I stand

[Dragon D. Luffy]

LC memorable? I'd say his presence is about similar to Roxy's but with a higher text to image ratio.

[Dragon D. Luffy]

Scot is definitely playing the town leader here which is not something Im used to from him but probably been at least half a decade since our last game together.

I don't automatically trust town leaders but I tend to give them the benefit of the doubt for a while, since it's a hard position for mafia to be in without slipping. That said with this game's activity level, the bar to clear to be a town leader is low.

So scot = lean town. Everyone else = meh.

[falcon45ca]

I have a RL friend I wanna introduce to mafia and I was going to link her this thread so she could watch the game.

I'm not sure if I change my mind because she will think you people are insane, or if I link this anyway... because she will think you people are insane.

I'm a lot more sane than I thought now that I've met a few Flat Earther folks

Probably not a great idea, this sounds a bit like a Serial Soup Killer.

- Silly Serial Kill - At night, you may select a player and choose either a role OR one of the messages provided in the previous end of night post. IF that player is correctly chosen as that non-vanilla role OR the submitter of said message they will be night killed. This night kill will be strongmaned and may not be prevented.

It’s an anime video game about boobs. DDL is big into it.

The serial killer role and that Wilgy was a 2 shot doctor (ish).

[sig]

Being able to express opinions with finite posts is certainly a skill that I’m rusty with but knee-jerk judgments I will make. And that will suffice.

I’m willing to say I feel pretty ok with everyone that has posted so far. I’m going to avoid metas as much as possible this game since I feel like I’ve been in the state penitentiary for a couple years regarding *playing* mafia.

But boy I can’t wait to hogtie the host up. Sounds like a fun time!

I don’t understand why you’re avoiding meta reads?

[sig]

I’m willing to say I feel pretty ok with everyone that has posted so far.

Alright then. Allow me to cut the red tape.

I'm a little weirded out by the fact everyone and their dog felt the need to chime in about when the last time they played mafia with me was. I feel like a local celebrity.

I know this is probably just a sympton of the fact you are all friendly and lovable people. But my scumhunter brain is looking for parterns, and this feels like one. Bandwagoning, anyone?

It’s weird that you find this weird tbh
