Arrowverse Mafia - Day 8

[Jackofhearts2005]

Nks overpowered lynches because sker would kill town in late game.

[Jackofhearts2005]

That's two people I have the hots for.

Anybody else want to give me the hots tonight?

[Jackofhearts2005]

Let's decide whether or not a thing is pingworthy, gang.

@Ultra what does your scum hunting look like? What types of games are you used to playing, mechanics/setup-wise? What kind of pizza did you get earlier?

This is, like, the opposite of what I saw last game.

Also hi guys

What did you see last game?

Ultra has hesitant to interact with the thread, which is why I voted him D1. He spoke mostly to Nova, who was answering whatever was thrown his way. Some weird dependent thing.

This game, Ultra has already made a hot take and claimed that he's going to flex on the thread (not hesitant), and you're buzzing him with questions as if he needs the help. (Where Nova was just whatever about it)

Enough for an early townread on Ultra. Not sure what to think of all your questions yet. Feels kinda like fluff, but it's also something you do with new players.

The highlighted portion feels tacked on and arbitrary. Speedchuck has shared a straightforward read about Ultra when prompted. He then adds a nothing read on Sloonei which acknowledges that he is observing Regular Sloonei Behavior, but quibbles over it anyway. Why does this non-read on Sloonei exist?

Cause he doesn’t know your alignment yet.

[Jackofhearts2005]

This is the game where I buddy Speed cause I think he’s town even though multiball.

[Jackofhearts2005]

Now if the host comes out and says something like that is a no go, that's one thing. Though as a host myself, I feel like that's a gray area.

But if we can do it I don't see why it wouldn't work. The buy in would be "if you stick to the plan town benefits", so if you're not in you're automatically suspect. Then we proceed to get a D1 lynch of any role we want to.

I am not the host but based on my years of experience on this site, I think that your proposal would be considered a violation.

As for my strategic objection: I think that the most important weapon a civilian has is their vote. A plan which involves have everybody abstain from voting on Day 1 is essentially waving the white flag on Day 1. Mafia get to kill somebody before we've tried to lynch them, and the activity that would normally take place on Day 1 is delayed until Day 2.

The plan would only have everyone abstain until the felicia player casts their first vote. Not sustain for the entire day. We would get a D1 scum lynch. Sorry if that was not clear.

......even with all the other problems, this would never work. You just expect to assume the first player to vote is that role? Not a random scum voting for a town to get everyone to pile their votes on and go on their merry way?

I feel like you just didn't even think that through

Uh, no.

It would be just like a cop vs cop fake claim scenario. If scum wants to fake claim, they get contested by the felicia player. We know one of them is scum, and one of them is felicia. We could lynch between the two and in fact, if the peeked scum is different than the fake claiming scum (likely), that's two right there.

I thought it through very well thank you very much

There's no claiming in this game.

[Jackofhearts2005]

Soupkill is not sufficient anticlaim btw unless it is in addition to the nk, not instead of.

Unless the goal is to only have one claim confirmed townie at a time.

[Jackofhearts2005]

Nutella’s probably scum for saying only obvious shit but I couldn’t find a pokemon gif that expresses this.

[Jackofhearts2005]

Wait here we go.

[Jackofhearts2005]

I don't suspect Ultra. Bottom line.

I suspect Matahari.

lee me lone. I’m tryna watch Shetland.

Like the ponies?

[Jackofhearts2005]

In answer to some popular questions:

The game continues until either the civs or baddies are eliminated, or Deathstroke is LMS. The Legends can achieve their win condition without ending the game. They can win with any faction except Deathstroke. Rip can recruit any role that is not un-recruitable, including Mafia.

Also the plan players suggested earlier would effectively be asking a player to roleclaim, so it's right out.

What happens to the Legends when/if they win?

Are they given btsc?

[Jackofhearts2005]

Cause the only things easier to win with than cults and survivors are friggin Survivor cults.

[Jackofhearts2005]

Seriously how good of a role would the Quiz be?

Spoiler: show

I see you've never faced a Jester Cult.

It depends.

Soupkill as I used it allows for light claiming as a risk to town. What you're describing is basically modkills that scum can enact without any risk.

Hi all,

First game here.

I tried catching up but the black background made my eyes bleed...

How long will D0 last?

[DrWilgy]

How long will D0 last?

Depends on how long I last... Which we all know is a very, very long time.



There are frogs in each of us patiently waiting for release. My name is DrWilgy and I am most definitely not a Doctor.

[Sloonei]

Hi all,

First game here.

I tried catching up but the black background made my eyes bleed...

You can change this in the User Control Panel.

[Sloonei]

How long will D0 last?

Typically about 24 hours. It’s just a phase to give everyone time to receive their role card and check in.

Day 0 isn’t usually this busy, but I got excited.

Thanks [mention]dunya[/mention] messaged me and that's done now - waaaay better.

So this is your fault?

[Jackofhearts2005]

I have a huge day tomorrow working the Australian election and seeing my goat band afterwards. Big chance I won't post for 36 hours from now. Smash em civs.

Falling mini bears, animals carrying around other animals in pockets, everything is poisonous.

Of course your fucking goats can form bands.

[Jackofhearts2005]

Also idk about my playstyle, it may change according to the game pace. Though I'm known for making 20+ posts in a row when I'm inspired enough.

Creature’s meta is that if he’s town, he’ll post a lot and I will probably try to lynch him anyhow.

No, none of this would even be happening if DFaraday hadn’t decided to host a game.

What is your level of experience with this creature?

DFaraday said in the OP this Day 0 is 48 hours.

Played iirc 4 MU games with him. He was town every time.

I have no idea what to expect from a scum Creature beyond horror stories.

[Jackofhearts2005]

Btw Prometheus is a shit tier character who I will never forgive for Liam Harper

[Luxurious]

Question regarding the no claims rule - does that mean if you're the cop/tracker/whatever you can't state your results?

Indeed. No infodumping at all. But there are still ways to use those types of roles.

Sad

[Jackofhearts2005]

What’s up Lux?

[Luxurious]

Does the town lose when the Legends outnumber the baddies? Cause that means it could actually be counterproductive to lynch mafia.

Dont we win if we kill all the mafia though

Like i didnt think we needed to even find the legends to win

[Luxurious]

What’s up Lux?

I just started my day so nothing :cheers:

[Luxurious]

I am here!

Welcome back. What is your first impression of Ultra?

Cant even lynch and he’s already trying to find scum.

Respect.

I already got one tho dont worry

Give it up, Jack. Lux is onto you.

[mention]Jackofhearts2005[/mention] would you mind having a still image for an avatar for once. the fast movement makes it really hard for me to focus on reading posts

[nutella]

@DFaraday I compulsively alphabetized and ISO-tized the player list if you wanna add this to the front page.

Cooler - ISO
Creature - ISO
Dragon D Luffy - ISO
DrWilgy - ISO
Dragomir - ISO
Epignosis - ISO
Jackofhearts2005 - ISO
juliets - ISO
Long Con - ISO
Luxurious - ISO

MafiaMenace - ISO
Matahari - ISO
nutella - ISO
sabie12 - ISO
Sloonei - ISO

speedchuck - ISO
sprityo - ISO

[mention]DFaraday[/mention] would be great if you put this in the OP. the randomly ordered list of players is kinda disorienting/unhelpful

[nutella]

[mention]Dragomir[/mention] and [mention]Long Con[/mention] have yet to check in

[DrWilgy]

Good case. I know where I'll be voting.

That is the entire point of moving avatars.

Before I catch up: what comes after D0? N1 or D1?
