Just a few things before we start...

Pretty please be active. The game is as fun as the effort you put in!
BlazingHand is coaching town. If you have any questions on how to play the game, no matter how silly they might seem, he is uber-friendly and happy to help. He just loves to be PMed by you guys!
Any questions on the game, write your question in
green text in the thread or PM me and we will answer you asap.

Roles will be going out in the next 20 minutes or so. Please do not post until the daypost, and glhf!

Edit: also, the player list along with everyone's filter is in my 2nd post in the thread. You can click anyone's name and it will show you all the posts they've made in this thread. Pretty useful! ^^

Which reminds me, don't ever edit your posts like I'm doing now

Day 1


[image loading]
Kinda looks like a cowboy I guess.


The air of the saloon was filled with its customary smoke. The beer was flowing, the music was loud and everyone was having a good time.

mkfuba strode through the doors with a cocky stride and tipped his cowboy hat to his friends.

"Howdy, cowboy" growled the bartender, stereotypically. "What y'all be havin'?"

Before mkfuba could answer, gunshots were heard from outside. Everyone rushed out to see what the deuce was going on. The usually sleepy town of Liquidia had exploded with action. The air was thick with dust and there were horses galloping everywhere. Shots were ringing out and people were diving for cover.

The Bel Monte posse had been making its moves on Liquidia for a long time. But the Sherriff and his deputy had kept the town safe... up till now. GMarshal stood tall amongst the carnage, with bodies strewn on the ground around him. His face dripped with blood and sweat. After a long fight, finally he stood alone. A man on horseback sauntered over slowly.

"Your pathetic little town is mine, Marshal" he spat.

"Over my dead body"

"Gladly, sherriff," said the man on horseback. With the quickest draw of a gun anyone in Liquidia had ever seen, the man on horseback put a bullet through GMarshal's chest and laughed. GMarshal collapsed to the ground, one hand clutching at his heart.

BloodyC0bbler turned his horse around and, at leisure, made his way towards the outskirts of town.

But there was one more shot, and he collapsed off his horse. Hands shaking, GMarshal had made his last stand against the intruding villains, and collapsed on the ground, a pool of blood gathering around him.

The rest of town looked on, shocked and appalled. Their town was no longer safe with the sherriff gone. It remained for town to weed out the infiltrators of the Bel Monte crowd.

Qatol, Deputy Sherriff died a noble death in the fight!
GMarshal, Sherriff, was murdered in cold blood!

BloodyC0bbler, leader of the Bel Monte posse was felled at the last!



Day 1 has started. You have 48 hours to vote for the lynch!

I'm not going to quote the entire post, but I'd strongly recommend the town to read Hapahauli's post following XXIII(http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=355874&currentpage=58#1160). Was watching that game while I was waiting for this to start and based off of his scumhunting track record it contains some good advice. Since it's probable we will mislynch we need to get as much out of Day 1 as possible.

Reading the many guides linked on the library which are incredbly helpful, the most important thing I saw is that the town needs to stay active and stay on point. If we are to lynch anyone it has to be because of real information and evidence, and that has to be readily available from the thread. If we're trying to learn we need a long record to practise analysing.

Imagine how scared of posting you would be if you'd signed up for your first game and rolled Mafia. Your posts would be short, infrequent, and not hold any information that disagrees with the general direction so as not to stand out.

+ Show Spoiler [Thoughts on XXIII] +
I'm still really mad at Hapa for essentially winning on luck in XXIII. Had GK actually spoken up in the game, Hapa wouldn't have had the GK lynch to work off of and we scum could have safely NK'd him without worrying about a medic save.


Howdy town. Let's kick some scum ass. A few policy notes:

  • Lynch all lurkers. That's how town caught scum in XXIII. But don't overly rely on this, scum can fake D1 activity pretty well.
  • Observe, observe, and observe. If someone acts strangely, lynch them. This includes checking everyone's metas from previous games.
    • All players here--please list all the games you have played previously, as well as which roles you played, along with filters for your posts. Here are my links:
      My XXIII Filter, where I was scum
      My XXII Filter, where I was Mason with Keirathi

  • If someone isn't forthcoming with information ("I have a read but I'm not going to share it because of blah") lynch them.
  • If someone isn't actively pushing new cases with their posts, press them on it.
  • Stop OMGUS wars. They're not productive. If two people are OMGUSing each other, tell them to stop, don't just sit there and let them keep yelling at each other. The only ones who win off mass OMGUSing are scum.

That's all for now, good luck everyone.

Does anyone have experience playing in a game where a serial killer was a possible role? If there did end up being a serial killer, how big a role did they play and how high would you rate the importance and achieveability of sniffing them out early? In other words, would it be a worthwhile use of the town's time and investigation to try to figure out who, if anyone, is the serial killer? I can see how it would be very important to find out who is SK early on, but I also can see how it might be way more difficult than figuring out who is mafia, and thus not a good use of time. One distinction between the serial killer and the mafia is that the mafia are in communication and will be working together while the serial killer is separated from both town and mafia. Any player who is suspected to be not of town affiliation could either be mafia or SK, so while in either case they are a good target for lynching, having knowledge of their actual role would be way more valuable than just an uninformed hit on a supposed non-town player.

If there isn't an SK, then this line of discussion is a complete waste of time and we would be doing the mafia's job for them, which is why I asked if anyone has experience in games with an SK so that we all can get a better idea of what the risk/reward anaylsis should be on determining whether or not and when to focus on a potential SK.

Concerning shady sand's post, this is my first game so I have no previous history to reference.

I didn't even get to order my drink :<

Anyway... Hi everyone! This is my second (and a half?) game of TL mafia, and I'm excited to get started! I'd like to start with some policy discussion, since I don't know what else to discuss at this point.

I've come around in my thinking since XXIII, and am willing to consider lurker lynches. I wouldn't suggest lynching someone completely without suspicion (even GK in XXIII was a stretch for me, though I did vote to avoid a no-lynch), but the threat of lynching based on inactivity should motivate everyone to be active. If two players are equally suspicious, and only one is lurking, I'd probably go with the lurker.

Completely new players, please read the guides and be sure to understand the capabilities of all of the roles. I was excited to get into this game because of all the role possibilities. It has the potential to be much more complex than what I've experienced, and I'm looking forward to it.

Why are you so worried about the SK? SK is a bigger threat to scum than to town.
