No. How much IRL mafia did you play ? About 20 games, with around 8-16 players per game. We usually only played with the standard roles with some flavour such as Medic and Sheriff. But basically vanila mafia. Each game might have lasted around 8 hours per playthrough. I would consider myself an very vocal player but also guilable. Many games have been one or lost because of people spending to much time analyzing my actions. As I always say to myself the silent mafia is the worst mafia... but I digress since this seems very different. How did you play as scum ? I don't think it would be more than subtile differences tbh between me as a townie or mafia, the biggest thing I would say is that as mafia I would probably spend more time analzying the voting tenendcies before speaking. I would also probably try to spend time "mudding the water" raising suspicion on several players at once. I don't think I want to reveal more than that otherwise I would spoil the fun. Usually when I am mafia I make a critical misstake sometimes later in the week but they can be missed... I also have a tenendcy to change play between playthroughs just to not get to predictable. And you if I may ask? How do you play? Why would revealing more about yourself would "spoil the fun" ? I am an active player as either alignment. As town I have the most success finding scum by finding inconsistency in what they say. As scum I try to replicate that to destroy lynchbait.
Yes I can understand that, a common strategy especially when everything is saved in this format. I always thought mafia would have a big disadvantage in a forum game because on this simple strategy.
I am afraid that if I reveal to much of how I reason this early the mafia will be able to use it against me in a critical junction. Alas it may already be to late for that, we will have to wait and see.
Another fun thing I usually do is play the game blind the first day just to build an opinion of the players without bias but not this time.

I was expecting emperorchampion to be very active in the beginning since I spectated the last game played (the one with hilary and trump). Maybe he changed his playstyle or maybe he simply asleep.
What do you think Rels?
|
Rels since no one else seems to be active right now maybe you could help me explain a bit about the roles.
"Mason and Parity Cop vs Godfather goon and roleblocker
cop and jailkeeper vs Godfather, strongarm and role blocker
Jailkeeper and vigilante vs Godfather, Goon, Strongarm"
I do not recognize the jailkeeper, strong arm and godfather.

Yes, in my experience the lynch train is highly random the first day. Maybe it is different here?
It would be funny if he got lynched and turned red on the first day though. I would laugh a lot!

Yes I agree, is it too soon to start voting?
I am unsure about the timezones for all the players but this is to quiet. It feels like a scum town atm... I would throw accusations left and right now if it was irl to gauge some responses!

Thanks for the information, it seems like there will be a lot of night action. A shame I wont be privy to it...
|
I already scimmed the presidential game, but Id like to form my own opinion on the players first.
But it is a good tip thank you!

It feels like the calm before the storm...

haha, I think I can summarise it as:
TL:DR: I talk to much:
Well I tend to contradict myself a lot the further the game goes since I am vocal player most of the time. This usually tends to get me lynched sooner or later as either alignment. If my radar is off the mafia tend to keep me alive or they execute me day one because I am good at converting votes either way i tend to add a lot of information for the more perceptive players.
It his hard to self analyze that way as a mafia player but I think it usually comes down to people thinking I dominate conversations to much and get me on those contradictions when I no longer suit their needs. Especially if I make the town lynch to many townies in the process of my ramblings.
|
I need to think a bit more on it tbh...
|
Well I think rels is blue based on his posts so far. One mafia usually goes active in the beginning but I dont really have any scum vibes yet.
There is probably a 50/50 red or green on both of you so far.
And what do you think about me so far?

I am not privy to what happend earlier but let's just agree that it is a game it is meant to be fun but sometimes we can get carried away, trust me sometimes I don't have a filter either!
We will just have to wait and see but it is nice to see someone else carrying some of the posting weight! 
Either way it is nice to meet all of you and I hope we can become friends even though sometimes we might be on the wrong sides of the "fence"!

And what do you think about me so far? I'm pretty confident you're town.
Yeah I was almost certain you would say that, I was thinking of a way to summarise how I play with a picture.

Tbh I have no idea how you came to that conclusion.

Yes I know it is just that you timed it with Koshi so I though he was the storm.

I agree I am eager, because I have been looking forward to this for a couple of days. But I would probably play like this either way tbh.
