So basically, after one minute of thinking, if we identify more town players than there are mafia, we basically win correct?

There's probably some bulletproof or mirror mechanics in play or the game would be massively imbalanced. Either that, or it's a bastard setup and there aren't actually any scum which wouldn't surprise me.

Yeah you are right.

The Bard's Code

  • One player shoots at a time. We wait for the flip before the next player shoots. There is no reason to have five people shooting at the same time with limited information.
  • If Player A shoots Player B and Player C shoots A before B flips, Player C will be policy shot.
  • Do not shoot immediately once a player has flipped. A longer cycle favors town.
  • Do not fake shoot. It gives the mafia team an excuse to perform a retaliation shot.
  • If you are town, don't waste your shot trolling.
  • Come at the Bard, you best not miss.

Lol I have 2 bulletproof vests. GG


I wouldn't be surprised at all if
a) This is true and
b) Cheesecake is scum

(a) because there must be some form of bulletproof mechanic in the game, you can't assume it's an all-vanilla(or all-vigi rather) setup;
(b) because this is a weird claim. If makes you not want to shoot him, which makes him either a blue, a red or simply a real 2bp role trying to wifom the shit out of people. From my old experience(and self-experience) however, claiming a strong blue like that - and one unlikely to be shot - is usually a scum method to reduce the likelihood of being shot.


example: pokemon mafia where I claimed to be a medic early on, being medic and bulletproof as scum, but the claim was more for attracting shots rather than repelling them.

My suggestion: watch Cheesecake carefully and be ready to stack shots on him if we deem necessary.

I suggest the following policy:
Anyone that gets shot and doesn't die, we shoot until it does die.

actually screw that. I'm asking you wether you're blue or red. No need to answer. I should have thought before pressing enter to smack down your bullshit and did not realize I'm outing you. My dearest apologies but fear not for mafia (in case you're actually blue, if you're red you can die in hell) doesn't know what kind of blue you are! That's at least something.

Actually I didn't catch it either until I just checked my role PM and his text a bit closer.
That sucks though, makes the game a good bit more boring with confirmed town running around. Maybe scum has fake PM's though.

"Breadcrumbing role pms sucks and is unfair, but I see what you're saying and I'm totally confirmed town too!"

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around me
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
And I'll get on my knees and pray
We don't get fooled again

Well I don't think he's actually confirmed, might have been just a coincidence but he's looking good for now. I might be looking good because I pointed it out (that's up to you to decide) and because I was the first one to figure it out.
Everyone after my explanation just doesn't matter because people might just be talking bullshit now that it's in the open anyways, no need to have actual information.

So we either have 1 guy looking somewhat good (hint: it's Phil_Ken_Sebben) or we have 0 guys looking good because it was just a coincidence / mafia has example pm's in which case both of Phil and me could as well be mafia doing a little stunt from your point of view, not likely but not impossible. It's good enough for a 5 minute into d0 read for sure though.

Zephiridd is more confirmed same role PM as Pil_Kan_Woozie but his opinions are invalid so I can't even listen to my confirmed town bro now.

Sad day.
