Except a bad mafia coach can lose the game if they don't know what they are doing.
And coaching mafia actually requires reading the game which i am not sure if i want to do.


lol makes sense

still hold the same opinion, though xP

(also i don't actually randomize coaches cause i feel that newbies should get something out of their coaching...i'm pretty sure that bh does randomize. not 100% on that)

you and gb also aren't bad mafia coaches >>


I've coached a mafia team once. They were rekt.

Also I can't keep track of the Mafia QT... But anyway... I could coach mafia too, yeah.

I think there are enough coaches in general. The discussion is just that coaches are supposed to be willing to coach either alignments or not.

I have a 7/9 or 8/10 score as mafia but I was lynches in like 6 or 7, so I was doubting my ability to coach mafia.


Anyway. One thing I would like to add is that town coach QT is very straight forward. Scum QT not only involves coaching but also strategy discussion. It's like that teacher who tries to give his classes to a non-stop talking students.
Maybe having a separate QT for coaching would help?

that said I had zero issues with GB as a mafia coach. we got rekt because of an afk Barakos (couldn't even get his attention via pm) or any trade-off for him getting lynched, my work schedule dicked me over completely and I failed to communicate properly what I was trying to do with n00bking during the day 3 frenzy.

wouldn't mind having a go at mafia again, I just know not to sign up for games now if I work too many overnights.


Good to know this. Thank you

I disagree.
I think the mafia coach should encourage their team to strategize and when the team does so, then encourage them to think if their strategy is actually good or not.

But i agree with marv, if i was mafia in a newbie game i wouldn't even want a scum coach for my team.


I also think this, but sometimes questions and answers are lost in a clusterfuck of messages in a scum QT that sometimes the coach can't miss.

Having separate QTs (one for the scum team to discuss and one for the scum team to interact with the coach) would help organise things. This doesn't mean the coach must not have access to the scum QT. He could still help the newbies with that, but posting in a separate QT.

Anyway, just a suggestion.
I'm adorable.

Kitaman has already done this for his newbies - when I was mafia in his games - we had our own coaching QT as individual scummers and then the scum coaches also shared the scum QT with us. So they could talk our individual strategies with us in our individual QT and then team strategy/mislynches/nightkills were discussed in the collective mafia QT.

This was also helpful in the event scummers had problems/conflicts/disagreements with each other - whilst not the case in any of my scumteams it could prove helpful in certain situations. And it also reduced the clutter in the mafia QT as well.


I think this is good.

I had in mind a shared strategy QT and a shared coach QT, but what you said may also work

I understand and apologize for being unclear but as you can see when I don't find the two roles any different and you do, the source of the miscommunication is obvious. Please don't use this as a reason not to coach.

I'm opinionated but if you think i'm wrong that being a coach for both alignments is essentially the same thing you shouldn't let my opinion keep you from coaching


Awwwww

That doesn't make any sense I think both of you are mafia now. It makes no sense logically for that to happen.



Why does that makes us both mafia?
