I'm reading the rules. I have followed some of the other games on this site...

Is KP factional in this game or deliverable? I can't tell.
Also are players allowed to no lynch this game?

Also the deadline....if the deadline is 2300 that means votes at 2300 count? Or they don't? Or they don't count at 2301?

I saw this issue pop up in another game I was reading. I forget what is normal.

Think that's all questions I have.

I am excited for my first game here, though nervous. Having read other games, seems like some people lose their heads in this game? I was hesitant to join because of that.

I don't know how strict the moderators are with conduct, hopefully everyone is reasonable whatever their alignment.
Win or lose I just want to have fun and learn something.

As for hts and initiation...keep hts and the noose bag away from me!

RNG gave me town, thank God. I'm having a beer or two. Might be three. Not sure yet.

ruXxar sounds like he's sick of playing scum though.

Although if the moderator is going to make this a Pokemon themed game, I really don't know what to say.

He seems relieved to be town, assuming he's telling the truth, though the poetry makes me think he's more high than he is mafia.

Do you think he's mafia?

Well it's my first game here and most of my mafia experience is from real life. It seems harder to fake being town in real life and I can't see it being much different on forum mafia with the body language and tone of voice aside.

Tell me of your experience with real life mafia.
My curiosity is peaked.


I played it a lot at parties in uni and in grad school. It was the party game of party games. I also have played a board game called Resistance which is somewhat similar except people don't die but you also do figure out if people are lying or not and try to include them on your team or not and then pass or fail the expedition party.

What is your experience with mafia or is forums just it?

It would seem like it. I don't know if I should make anything the way he's addressing people, ignoring his poetry, that could come from town or mafia. I'm assuming no ill-will means a town read? or a null read?

I can't tell actually. ruxxar is that even a read on noobking?

A read from a sentence?
What do I analyze, the tone, the cadence, the befriending emoticon?
The timing, his motivation, his meta?

A sentence says so little yet says so much if you but know what to look for.

I will not pass judgement on n00b yet, but you nocturne, you have showed your true colors.
The natural curiosity, the spontaneous doubt, your inquisitive nature and your non-hesitation to share with us of your life.
I read you clear as a book.

Your alignment is town.


I'm looking through ruXxar's posts and just ignoring his poetry for now. The poetry alone makes him high, not mafia.

My inclination to read him null or slight mafia at best comes from his hesitation in reading noobking and even after later pages he talks to noob but doesn't have a read on him. I can't see a reason for that. He calls him edgy and stiff and this is in spite of saying he's going to engage in his own way. He doesn't seem to be committing to an actual read on n00bking, and mafia need to make up reads, so this appears to me he's trying to do something like that.

The response to Breshke makes no sense...."between town and PR"
I'm guessing that means power role? If so, why are you suggesting who might be a power role in the open? The inclination to call him town also makes no sense when you are calling him edgy and stiff, terms that might indicate he's not comfortable and therefore mafia.

Dunno, what to make of it atm, last time someone used poetry in a game it confused the hell out of me and 2 of the 3 reads I got from it were utter bullshit, so for now, I'll not jump to any conclusions about ruxxar, based on that style, but would really appreciate it, if this changes sometime soon...

I think I'm in the same boat with you. I don't want to tell anyone how to play, but I would rather see that stop.

Well I'm trying to see past the poetry and just look at the words he's using to describe people, although I see Damdred was able to get a read off ruxxar, my only hesitation with Damdred is when he says "tone and frequency" how is he so sure that ruXxar or anyone else isn't faking the tone with his poetry? I know the argument is made that mafia have hard time making reads but I thought from some of the games I've read before mafia can spam the thread too, so the frequency part of the argument doesn't make sense to me.

As for the disformation read, he is saying he waffles a lot which makes me hesistant to read him town, I don't know if he should be scum whether he's trying to make an excuse for himself early on but I need to read the rest of the thread.

Have you talked with n00bKing before? He's a good player but when he pressures it feels like a needle is being rammed into your brain as you start desperately backpedaling to get solid footing to defend yourself. Not to mention when you try and engage him in casual conversation he spurns it most of the time and uses it as a foothold to pressure him instead of

But in this game he's been a lot less active and less spiky. I'm not sure if it's because of the reasons he listed before or not so just keep an open mind about him until he starts posting.


No I haven't. Though I've read a few games I think I'm just going to read people on what I'm seeing in this game alone - people seem to be making references to past games and not sure how helpful that is when apparently some people are changing their play style apparently anyways.

Damdred is probably town, I think he's wrong on ruxxar, but he's probably town.

That's great and all, but I think you are forgetting that my first post was made under 10 minutes after the game started. Not really a lot of anything useful to say at the beginning.

hi everybody.
i'm new so i really don't know what to say and what conclusions to draw.

i don't know why ruxxor is so defensive about his "posting style" when the accusation against him is so baseless.
i still think you cannot tell either way though.
moosydoosy being the first one to point fingers to gain information gives him a slight townlean for me.


Somewhat of a waffly post and mafia don't really like to commit but it could be him also just new. I don't like ruxxar either but it's not the poetry that is a problem. But I still think it's waffly because I'd associate defensiveness in that manner as he's afraid of something, so I'm not sure why Flexes can't really tell unless he's afraid to make a read.

He reasserts himself but doesn't really make a read, which I think is a scumlean.

As for the read on moosy, I assume it's based off this post -
