I mean basically whatever team gets Wave wins, hue.
If that's how you feel about 'meta' reads I'm fine with questions not being asked in this thread.
I mean, Wave is a high priority target for either team, so I don't think it would be auto win for his team. Also, I played mafia for a good ~year before wave started playing, so don't count me out =P Although I'm fairly certain wave was better than I was in our respective "primes".

Beginning D1 is almost always a shitshow. But it is what you make of it, I suppose.

No masons? For shame.
I love masons, but they're probably a bit much for a newbie oriented game.

Although, I say that when my first mafia game ever was Dr. H's first massive Haunted Mafia game.

when will you be sending out roles dandelion?
Also, for serious, thanks for hosting. I was half joking when I said it in OT, and I definitely appreciate your acceptance.

I hope you guys are prepared. This thread is soon to become one giant JonGalt.

piecemeal posts - I think there's an understanding that D1 may have a few people with sporadic schedules

I thought we agreed on lynching Wave?
Actually that might be a decent idea. A learning experience of sorts: either he doesn't get lynched, and I'll know what to emulate if I want to live if I ever get accused, or he gets lynched, and we know what not to say if he flips scum, or how not to defend oneself if he flips town.
I'd have said "how to recognise town" but noob scum could copy his defense too in that case, which would be misleading.
More seriously, though, how do these games actually start, apart from meta stuff? There's usually hints like noise or facial expression to pick up in IRL variants. And seeing how well the whole "mass claim" strat worked out in the LoL Mafia Wave hosted and made us host, I wouldn't want to start by imitating that.
Do we just accuse somebody at random and try to read how he defends himself/people talk about him?
People have different styles and preferences. Early D1 is awkward to start, so it's always just general bullshit. Some people like to participate, others like to let it settle and join in on real discussion afterwards. The whole time you should be trying to look for anything that might be shady (and it's a learning experience to figure out what that actually means), and see what you can do to further your assumptions, speculations, knowledge, etc.

He talked about how much he plays mafia in real life, and he probably knows how day 1 works fairly well. I vote for him to by lynch target #1! Even real life games have fairly random accusations, but I do agree it might be easier with body language tells for people who seem overly nervous
Well, real life vs forum is really a hugely different vibe. In RL mafia, you don't have time to think about what you're gonna say, body language as you said, etc. Granted, I'm not sure how much of it translates to forum,
And you should know that I never listen to Alaric by now.

Oh, no no no, of course I wouldn't let you do all the work. But I'm sorry to disappoint, I tend to be a vote prude in the early days. It doesn't mean a whole lot right now, and unless I really want to pressure someone in particular (and think my vote will actually do that), I keep my vote in my pocket for a bit.

Well that's the thing, everyone is lying until you know for certain what they say is true.

I would assume Wave is a high priority target for mafia if he's not scum, so no reason to lynch him Day 1, his alignment is basically revealed Day 2 if he's still alive.
Not entirely true. It depends what happens D1. If wave pushes a lynch on a townie, and his other reads are nowhere near the mark, they could leave him bumbling around for a while. Just like any other game, when you're playing with bads, it's hard to predict what the hell they'll do.

I honestly would have been less suspicious of Wave if all his post said was to vote ghandi because he is young as shit. Instead he had to color code everything! The color coding is way too strong for me. Wave please QQQQ What about the colour coding makes me suspicious, o delicious condiment? It's too try hard sir! I didn't expect that from you, nor do I think it was completely innocent in it's intention. QQThe Alzadar posts so far are actually the most suspicious because it doesn't really help townies at all while pretending to give out information. The games played especially means nothing despite the effort put in to make it seem that way. Elaborate on this, please. You seem to think that 'trying' is inherently scummy and I'm not following. As for your expectations and my intentions, how would you have any idea of either when you haven't played with me before? This is boring so far. I'm bored. Why aren't people voting for scum?
And what scum are these? Jeff? It's going to take more than a sweeping declarative first post saying "vote jeff" to make me want to vote anyone right now.
