Well I’m from Badguyia so WIFOM that

linki give a guy some time, the day just started

speaking of Badguyia, Jackofhearts2005 can you please confirm what the OP means when you said players with no specific nation in their backstory are from Badguyia. Is that correct or is there a missing comma there?

It's a comma issue.

Some townies are from Goodguyia. Some are from Allyia. Some are from Nomadia. Some are from Badguyia.

Some have no nationality so if someone checks them, they randomly are assigned a country.

If they are checked again do they keep appearing with the same country or does is change?

Same, unless they get a sponsored work permit or marry someone from the other country and then they can apply for citizenship after a couple years. Then they'll start copping as both or the new one, depending on their original country's views on dual citizenship.

So, who's going to get nightkilled first?

Everyone knows everyone's abilities, right? The Mafia will kill the abilities that threaten them the most.... right?

Have I missed discussion on this?

Thanks JJJ. I can’t say I’m persuaded by anything you said, especially your notions about dunya’s activity (I guess our experiences with mafia just diverge here because I’ve seen it more than just once) but I appreciate it.

Thoughts?

Caught up: mac and Jay are both town and squabbling over who has a bigger monster truck

When clearly epi has the biggest truck with the biggest tires because he’s a big honkin man who plays the guitar and likes NASCAR

Dunya has a firestorm post rate akin to jay only I agree more with what she’s saying than what I can agree with jay. Jay is like a solid Civ-ish.

Uhhhh I should look into LC and Nutella. Some more of the people I’m unfamiliar with too like kenway, TSP, Dr_white

DrWilgy is oddly silent in my memory, and if he’s mafia, he’ll proabably kill a teammate before realizing what team he’s on. *flashbacks to CC123*


Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh what’s the votes? I’m pretty sure I have the most votes rn when taking my passive into account

What are your reads on the four people in question?

dunya
Kylemii
Dragon D. Luffy
colonialbob

Dunya: mostly positive, actually, but strong players ought to be kept under scrutiny. Excitement scares me in Mafia because I know I’m always more excited when I get to lie. Then again she was excited enough to invite me before roles were called so it also seems genuine.

Kylemii: not a lot here for me, but I can’t agree with your read because it’s based on a meta I have no knowledge of. Nothing seems particularly scummy but nothing seems particularly towny.

DDL: I’m not sold on the case against Mac that people were all aboard for a little bit ago. The vote against him here struck me as capitalizing on his post with a rationale that looks good at first but not really under scrutiny. I don’t think a scum would offer himself up so easily on Day 1 as a sacrificial lamb when there’s slight momentum against him, but a townie might. I don’t also see anything in the hunting style that’s particularly better than anybody else’s.

Colonialbob: again, not a lot of feelings here but see the above re: hunting style

(In general the interactions between Mac and others are not adding up, including to Mac himself, and pursuing something there, between those players, might be the best route to go.)

The main theme here is that your rationale is based on intuitions I don’t share or information I don’t have access to, which isn’t your fault.

Also, I really want to know why Epignosis wants to know who we would pick?

hmmmmm well.......

there's a few info roles, shaman is the only role that can reveal secrets, wyvern knight too. Either of those roles would probably be a threat to the mafia, assuming they aren't held by the mafia. Thieves, the monk, and the pegasi stand out as well.

However, we also have a jailkeeper, 3 bodyguards, and two doctors, 2 full time power redirectors, 3 part time bus drivers, at least two role blockers, and a jack of all trades that can do 3 of the previously mentioned things, as well as 2 of whatever the technical-mafia term for whatever my role does and all of those things have the ability to double target.

some of those things might not actually be in our control, cus mafiadrafts, but I think overall if everyone's smart with their night targets we can at the very least make it difficult for the mafia to kill who they want to.

Oh I forgot DDL existed.

I haven’t been piqued by any of his stuff I’m pretty sure, which probably isn’t a good thing cause apparently he’s been relevant to other people

This is poorly phrased; when I say “to Mac himself” I mean that Mac is not absolved of all suspicion, but the whole thing is fishy.

JaggedJimmyJay is scum. Lynch him.

So what if I'm wrong. It's Day 1 bruthah!!!

Well, explicitly planning the actions of Civs is not something we want to do of course... but I think it would be a great idea for the general populace of protection types to be generally protecting the information types.

Is that reasonable?

One of the best reasons to include a poll. The poll doesn't need to be a lynch poll, but a fun poll with an end time should be in place.

good night

I am a man but I look like a woman. I'm not sure what you mean by "archers are females", is this established somewhere? This strikes me as fishing for people's genders for something role related. Could obviously be either a town or a scum role, but noted.

I asked you this before: how do you know you look like a woman? Did your role come with a photo? I didn't get one.

also, I think @Kites meant to say archers are males and he's a woman. or archers are females and he's a man. The sentence and contradiction doesn't exist in his post as it stands now.

Let us know what you meant, Kites.

oh my wording can be confusing sometimes
archers are referred to as ”her” there’s no contradiction, i wanted to know if that’s the case for everyone.

please don’t let this thing distract you tho. i asked because under certain, but very unlikely, conditions there’s an effect on my action so it’s a really minor thing and not worth paying attention at this point

honestly I feel the same, I was also surprised it hadn't been longer but I guess some of the discussion was happening before the phase officially started but there have been a *lot* of posts today. hopefully I'm getting a job soon though >_>

@drwilgy has posted nothing in like 2.5 days and it’s all roleplay

but to answer epignosis’ question, if you were a don who would you pick?: i would pick 2 rym
dunya: i don’t want to play against her, no no + it’d be super fun
gwilikers6: cos he is a good bloke

and 2 other, all of non rym players are unknown to me so just randomly like marmot and dr. white
