FTL Mafia [ENDGAME]

ok i gotta stop these jokes because they're probably massively anti-town

[Myo]

To give someone new the bonus scrap. So you think if we all tie in today's vote, we'll all get scrap?

You think so? I kind of assumed that if multiple people tied for the top vote that it would be determined by RNG?

The only thing anti-town is a non-answer.

Hi Myo! What can you tell us about your mafia experience? What sort of things will you be looking for, and what is your general strategy on Day 1 and later on?

You must hate playing with me lol

[MacDougall]

Did Jiwon vote Tedxtr to get scrap without posting? Wild. Absolute scenes.

[Myo]

I offered one single pre-flip associative read in Banjo-Kazooie and it gave me the false confidence to mislynch a civilian who I thought was paired with another civilian on Day 1. Never again!

What does 'pre-flip' mean?

What does 'pre-flip' mean?

The 'flip' in question is slang for the role-reveal that occurs upon voting a player out by Day.

I do not think so. I think one person will get scrap, or maybe zero if we have a tie, because our Host can sometimes be a hardass in that way.

Hola! I think I mentioned that I normally play at HogwartsWerewolves. Games are a bit bigger (small games are 30-45 and big games are 70-100ish). I'm excited to try something different! Not sure what else to say about my general experience ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I normally like to discuss mechanics phase 0/1 and see what people think is the best approach to different roles/event/etc. I like to get a feel about where other people's heads are at compared to mine. I typically base who I think is sus in the early phases on this. Later in the game I'd say that I kind of like to poke people if that makes sense? Especially with regards to the quieter people I tend to find that reactions to accusations/questions can be useful. Also looking for people who flip-flop on their reads or opinions.

Based on your questions I'm guessing my inclination that ties are solved by RNG is probably false based on typical rules here?

Your strategy is most aligned with mine, though I’ll caution that players who flip-flop are not always suspicious for doing so, especially in this community. “Flip-flopping” is more often than not just changing one’s mind.

Is role claiming typically allowed in your games?

[tedxtr]

Come to think of it, I think a lot of the stuff that are wolfy in a vacuum are actually more context and personality-dependent.

9/10 times, what would be described as flip flopping is a villager that changed their read, wolves barely flip flop ime

I’m not really a mechanical player, I’ll see if I’ll have the motivation to skim the OP and come up with some stuff.

Is role claiming typically allowed in your games?

Yes, role claiming and what was called 'info-dumping' in the rules is allowed and normal.

[MacDougall]

2 mafia solved already.

How does that affect you going into this game, where those things are not allowed?

Bravo

[MacDougall]

Got three now.

[MacDougall]

Tedxtr, Jiwon, Long Con in case you're wondering.

[MacDougall]

Bravo

You sound disappointed that I have solved the game. Don't be Sloonei. Together we will reclaim the cosmos on behalf of the government or whatever it is that we represent.

I don’t really think it should change things that much for me. I’ve played games before where the seer/power-roles died without revealing and so there were no role-claims/info to be shared late game because the role was already dead. The majority of my town/sus reads tend to be based on comment/vote histories and interactions with other players anyways. Having the power-role info does allows things to ‘slot’ into place and helps guide a bit (contextualise might be a good way of thinking about it) but this is also achieved by alignments shared in the meta when someone is lunched/night killed.

I am very excited for the public vote tallies, which are something I have never seen before.

[NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME]

Tedxtr, Jiwon, Long Con in case you're wondering.

Ted and Jiwon are my backup team so I’m ok with this

[Jackofhearts2005]

Anyone else planning to resolve the tie with a last second self vote?

Just me?

I was going to vote for you for scrap, but now I kind of think Spacedaisy is a better choice because you sound like you are trying to pretend to figure out who is bad and who is good.

[NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME]

Self voting isn’t allowed

[Long Con]

I'll vote Spacedaisy so Mac does't get it.

[Jackofhearts2005]

Self voting isn’t allowed

I knew that. I was just testing you.

[sig]

Eh, I guess that was an assumption rather than what it actually says.

Also Myo and sig are mafia partners, discuss

Yes, they seem scummy.

[sig]

Is the poll messed up for anyone else? I can't seem to vote.

it is closed

[sig]

Myo is my favorite player, 10/10 buddying accepted.

Mac seems civvie.
Nanook seems meh, this time I'm right I swear.
I wanna lynch Sloonie, for reasons,
LC, since I've gotten away from my roots of always lynching him and him usually, sometimes, kinda always being mafia.
Ted, since I never wanna lynch Ted and I think it'll be a fun way to start the game.

[sig]

Also, fair warning just moved to a new state and starting work on Monday, so activity will be a big question mark for me at times.

[sig]

If either Mac or LC are mafia the other is most likely mafia as well. LC breaking the tie away from Mac is definitely a move both/one would come up with as an easy distancing maneuver early game.

[Epignosis]

Spoiler: show

Who is deserving of scrap from the destroyed outpost?

The rebels jumped to a star system they deemed safe, but the federation followed them. The hunt is on.

The radio indicated that The Store would be open soon. Stay tuned.

Everyone will receive a PM regarding scrap totals. Stand by.

It is now Day 1. You have 48 hours to lynch someone.

[VOTE: sig] aubergine talk about those reasons

[NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME]

Dang sloonei you beat me to it

[Epignosis]

Your scrap count today is as follows:

You start with 10.
If you voted Day 0 you earned 3.
You received one per vote Day 0.

[NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME]

I fucking knew that spreading votes would’ve worked

[Jackofhearts2005]

Lol at Sig already having two votes.

[MacDougall]

Lol at Sig already having two votes.

Was my initial reaction but also Sloonei isn't the type to just lolvote sig so he may have seen something there that I did not.

[MacDougall]

I'll vote Spacedaisy so Mac does't get it.

Why didn't you want me to "get it"?

[Jackofhearts2005]

Lol at Sig already having two votes.

Was my initial reaction but also Sloonei isn't the type to just lolvote sig so he may have seen something there that I did not.

I feel like Sloonei's votes are pretend for the first 3/4ths of D1 and Sig somehow pocketed me in a game recently iirc. Covid? Like I'm just gonna let that stuff play out without worrying about what either of them are doing atm. Unless when I read the posts I've missed there's nothing else interesting going on.

Mirrored a lot of my thoughts Jack. Shall we dance together in honour of our failure to do so in the recent game?

There we go

[MacDougall]

Let me start by suggesting that Long Con is the optimal lynch here always.

1 - He's scummy
2 - He's Long Con, he only contributes when he's a wolf anyway so he's the best possible mislynch
3 - He didn't want me to have scrap

[Sloonei]

I wouldn’t say “pretend” though, I’m moving in a real direction when I vote, but it’s not because I think I’ve got anything figured out.

If Nutella was here, she'd call this salad tho.

[MacDougall]

Jack do you want to lock town each other and just ignore all scum tells in favour of destroying the game if we're right? I like the odds personally.
