for your second post in the game to be inquiring about no-shows, feels a bit bossy and disgenuine imo. like, i didn't even know day 0 had started and showed up on day 1. feels a bit like busywork to me when day 1 is still not even halfway through.
also the rules say to PM the host and not tag him in the game if you want to ask questions so feels doubly disgenuine-busy-work to me because you know he won't qualify that with an actual answer.

I was at the top of others wolf lists with the only reason that I never said I was town.

Hi! My town streak continues.
It's been over 3 years since the last time I was mafia.
Well mine isn’t quite that long. But this is the 6th (non turbo) game in a row I’ve been town and I’m loving the change from 2023 where I randed non-town in half my games.
I feel ya! I've had a 75% wolf rate since last summer so I'm just glad I got to town again, maybe the curse is over!
Maybe it's not.

Last game I towned I got misyeeted d3 despite solving the game, got ignored and lost. So sure, yeet me before I start caring about the game, getting misyeeted when invested stings ^^
when do you start caring about the game? post d1?
Usually d2/d3 yes unless I decide to high effort, which feels unlikely right now ^^

when was the last time you played mafia though?
Half a year ago. I was town.
And before that, I think 2021. Or 22.
last game i played here last year, was a syn game, i was town, but i got misyeeted and it was all cos i was tinfoiling on LC and Roxy and it was actually @Le petit poussin who i was hard defending. i felt like a big poop head.
also sorry i suspected you pretty early and may have caused the misyeet on you @S~V~S i felt pretty guilty about that post flip
LPP gave a master pocketing class that game. I think I may have been the only one who caught it. A person never to be underestimated!

Well, are you Town now? I'm asking so that you can say it comfortably - but ONLY if it's true. If you're. like, friendly third-party or something, then just give a lengthy politician-style non-answer, and, three posts from then, drop a secret code in your post at 1pt type, and I'll take it to the lab, let the boys loose on it, and we'll have results well before sundown. Good?

lol I retract "only wolf on page 1" I had forgotten way too many posts from players that popped in to make 1 or 2 NAI posts
My point is: Luffy, Lime, Thunal town vibes
Syn wolf vibes
I also get some wolf vibes from Long Con but that's just gut, can't explain it yet
long con doesn't want himself explained so it's ok. the more random he is, the happier he is.
i'm curious you have town vibes from luffy, lime and thunal though. i would credit ddl for being the most at ease and natural and from my memory (it's been years since i've been in front of wolf ddl tbh) he is more reserved.
but i don't have anything near as valid from lime or thunal yet.
Hey, hold up, how am I random? What is this? I'm Long Con, I am the foundation you can build your church upon!

Imma parrot this. I'd wait at least until day 1 is nearly over before calling people no-shows, and even further than that before demanding action from the host. Heck, the later I might not even do in public.
Doesn't look very townie to start an inactive hunt that early. Mafia is active maybe?

Well there is the case.
I thought the curse was over two weeks ago when I randed town in a Org game
Then I randed wolf in a mash last week and in the turbo last weekend
Randing town now gave me hope, but it's not enough to claim the curse to be over!
Hi Wisdom!
I think you're town right now so that's cool.
Is it just a vibe thing, or otherwise? I've never played with them, and that one post felt manipulative to me rather than salty.

@Syn what's wolf about scotty
I'm curious about that, too. All of his posts were day zero. Generally Scotty is chatty regardless of affiliation, and fairly aggressive either way. Silence is something I'm not used to seeing from him, and can't interpret. He has not played in some time, so it could be related to that. I need to see game related posts from him.
So I'd like to see what Syn is seeing that I am not, or if he's seeing nothing and put that out there to gauge reactions?
Wisdom wrote: ↑Wed Jan 22, 2025 6:55 am
If I go with my gut on page 1, Syn's the only wolf that's been online.
Mostly because I recently finished a game with him where he was obvtowning right from the get go, mainly because he seemed to have a fun time
I don't really have a good track record in reading him though, but at least he's not as towny now as he was then.
Vote##Syn
That ^^ feels a bit like equivocating; "well, I sus Syn the most, but just in case he gets yeeted and flips town, here's my excuse for voting for him".
So I saw nothing else to catch my eye aside from Wisdom. I have a few people I have clear town feels on, and most I need to see more on topic posts. So I'll drop a vote there for now [VOTE:

So, he was in a lot of things I didn't see. The two things I now know I saw him in were Critical Role (if you ever saw that, he was in campaign 1, Lionel Gayheart). I had no clue that was him, and I also saw him in Swedish Dicks, he was in one episode according to Wikipedia, and I saw every episode of that, so I know I saw him, but i don't specifically recall him. The show was Peter Stormare (the guy who put Steve Buschemi into the wood chipper in 'Fargo') and some other Swedish actor playing two Swedish detectives living in LA. Keanu Reeves makes random drop ins. It was very weird ha ha. I might have to see if they have it on youtube and look for that episode.
K I'll pop in before bed and then be back for my traditional o'dark thirty pre work Mafia time. Yay game
swedish dicks?
It's about Swedish Privates Eyes. But they kinda are dicks, too. It would probably notch up the "yuk yuk" level if i told you Traci Lords is in it too, she plays their competition.

At the moment, I'm feeling negative about Roxy's low-poster thing. S~V~S pointed out that Roxy is normally more forgiving, which I agree with. So why the behaviour change? Being a Wolf who needs to be relevant but doesn't have time to build yet, you have to have something to bring to the table. I guess it's not all that different from mech talk. I'm going to [VOTE:
roxy] aubergine though.
Speaking of mech talk, however, we CAN include some of that, given that this is a non-mountainous open setup. Maybe we can cook up some Town advantages.

Syn wrote: ↑Tue Jan 21, 2025 6:51 pm
through careful science, I have deduced scotty is a wolf
Wrongo, syn
Deduction denied
No, you have to refute his scientific proofs.
Proof: Scotty is not a wolf
Given Facts:
1. Syn’s Accusation: Syn has accused Scotty of being a wolf.
2. Scotty’s Behavior (Point A): Scotty has made no pertinent claims or stances prior to Day 1.
3. Point B is Undefined: There is no connection between Point A and Point B.
4. Scotty’s Biology: Scotty is bipedal and does not have a tail.
5. Syn’s Knowledge (or Lack Thereof): Syn is using the word “deduction” without sufficient information.
6. The Apple Analogy: A person cannot accurately deduce which apple is rotten in a box of 200 apples when they can only see 20.
7. The Cleveland Browns: The Cleveland Browns will never win a Super Bowl.
Proof:
Step 1: Identify Known Facts
From the given facts, we know that Scotty is bipedal (i.e., two legs) and lacks a tail, which is atypical of wolves. This immediately raises a strong point against the accusation. In fact, a wolf would typically have four legs and a tail, but Scotty only has two legs and no tail. Conclusion: Scotty is not a wolf based on basic zoology.
Step 2: Apply Syn’s Deduction (or Lack Thereof)
Syn claims to be using “deduction,” but let’s recall the apple analogy: one cannot deduce which apple is rotten in a box of 200 apples when only 20 are visible. Similarly, Syn doesn’t have enough information to accurately deduce Scotty’s status as a wolf. Just like picking a random apple and guessing it’s rotten (without looking at all the apples), Syn’s deduction is flawed. Conclusion: Syn’s deduction lacks the necessary data to be valid.
Step 3: The Cleveland Browns
The Cleveland Browns will never win a Super Bowl. This fact, while not directly related to Scotty’s wolf status, serves as an important reminder: just because something seems possible doesn’t make it likely. In the same way, just because Syn accuses Scotty of being a wolf, doesn’t make it true. Conclusion: Accusations, like Super Bowl victories for the Browns, are often wishful thinking.
Step 4: Final Conclusion
Given the biological facts, the logical flaws in Syn’s “deduction,” and the general lack of relevant data, it is clear that Scotty is not a wolf.
Q.E.D.

I don’t mind this Roxy counterwagon. Her approach so far isn’t accusatory of anyone, and without giving away too much (so she doesn’t influence what she does) isn’t hitting the notes I usually associate with town Roxy.
But she’s barely entered so I want to give her time to simmer
Wisdom, however, has plenty of posts and most come off as filler posts.
I especially found it odd when they started getting SAUCY about being a D1 leading wagon as town when only 1 person had voted for them. ‘I’m never wolf in a game where I’m lead wagon on D1’ is definitely a statement. Sounds like a wolf upset with garnering suspicion and trying to fend it off early with some actual facts.
But it could also be said that it is possible to find a Wisdom as wolf on D1 in a lead wagon situation, yes?
