Spent several hours going through my four games and am confident now that I do not need a coach and that I would like to play without one. That being said, I am not against other players having a coach if they are more comfortable. (Will we know who is receiving coaching and who the coaches are? Or who is eligible/allowed to communicate with coaches and who isn't)?


Coaches are assigned to individual players. You will know who has a coach, but the coaches profiles may be a secret to everybody. Only the newbies that requested a coach will be eligible to talk to his specific coach on a secret quick topic.

That's only if there is no one against coaching, tho.

Holyflare and JAT, I would love to have you playing in my game. If you're interested, please sign in

Sorry, but I probably won't. First of all I will probably start my master thesis soon and have no idea how badly this will effect my activity, then there is the coaching thing (I do not want to play with coaches but if other people have no problem with that I don't want to be the guy that prevents people from using coaches) and finally without trying to offend anyone the playerlist overall isn't very enticing.


you're not very enticing!

><!!!

-ish offended-

<3?

So you are part of the playerlist? :p


nope!

(i'm sticking to one game at a time lol but i'm helping gb with his thingy)

So you are offended on behalf of others?


To be fair most people should be offended. Just saying you are busy is fine, but implying no one interesting (aka good enough to be worth playing with) is on the player list is a pretty salty thing to do and just needlessly rude. I just don't care either way because I don't know any of the signed up players either and I'ts been 2 1/2 years since I played mafia on here.

Well, that's nice and all but I did say nothing of this sort so I think you should take your misplaced anger elsewhere. I also don't know why you think I would be salty about anything.
Fact is this playerlist contains mostly newbies/smurfs and I prefer playing with players I know. Nothing to do with skill level.


I am a newbie smurf who is unenticing and smells funny. Will you teach me how to play senpai? Also, how does one thesis?

Well ritoky, why don't you just take a coach? :p
You could ask BH or another awesome/pro veteran player. I am sure he can teach you how to play. Dunno if he can also help you with your smell though :/
If you work really hard then one day you surely will be a really good player - I believe in you.


Okay! Can I have a coach?!?!?!?!

Also hard work and dedication sounds hard, is there not some ponzi scheme for becoming good at mafia?

I just want to go ahead and get this out.

A good town environment is one in which no one is allowed to lurk or be passive and not post much of their thoughts. While I honestly don't know any of the players in this game I believe some are new so to them and to everyone else, you have to post. Whether you are 100% sure in your reads or not, posting is good for town. Even if your reads are wrong, being active is good for town to figure out the game. I refuse to allow the game to be a passive one where several people are lurking and not being active and contributing to the conversation because that automatically makes the game harder on town and lessens town's win chance. The 10 post per cycle rule enacted by the host is a good first step but I think it is up to us to make sure that people don't abuse the rule by just posting the minimum number of times and saying nothing of substance.

Now what I said applies to every game of course, an active town is always better than a passive town with several lurkers; but I particularly wanted to lead in with this point because I already feel like we might be heading in the direction of a passive/inactive town. So this is directed to everyone but specifically directed @ Damdred and Tictock:

Damdred and Tictock already posted before the start of the game that they might not be active. Here are Dam's and TT's posts I am referring to:

Thankfully they have both said that they are just sort of busy at the start but will have more time and be more active. I just want to urge them both to be as active as they can from the start, that way everyone can gets reads on them and we don't let them both through just because they aren't active in the first phase but might be in the phases after.

Just to be clear though, I am not accusing either of you nor am I suspicious of you for it, because those statements are clearly not alignment indicative because they were made before the game began and people had their roles. I am just saying that I refuse to allow the game to devolve into a passive town game with people lurking and posting nothing of substance and those events already have me worried that we may find ourselves in that position. So I urge you, along with everyone else, to be as active as you can, even if you are strapped for time.

Now that that is out of the way, could those who have played in games with some of the other people in the game (or if you know them) tell me who the strong players? I haven't played mafia on here since 2012 so I have no idea who the good players are and I think knowing this is helpful. I know this request seems a bit scummy ("Oh you wan't to know who the good players are so you can get rid of them!") but I will just concede that and say that knowing who is good tells everyone that those players:
a) should not be lurking because if they are good they are usually always active in their games (so if they are lurking and posting not much substance it will be suspicious),
and,
b) they would be valuable assets (so we should expect strong town play from them and we would expect mafia to try and get rid of them), both good pieces of information for town.

That is all I have for now, get to posting and being active everyone! :D


saw good town environment, stopped reading.

In regards to kicks question.

I am pretty new to TL forums. Have played in 2 of the newbie games (the 2 most recent ones, including the ongoing one).

I see a few familiar names, but most of you I don't know... and am HIGHLY suspicious of...

And of course I know SL, who I may have to ignore. I apologize in advance if I start tunneling him, I have a tendency to do that.

It has always been my policy to deal with inactives by reading their actual posts that much harder.

The idea is that if they are only willing to share a small amount of thoughts or thinking then we should take those posts even more literally/seriously.


My point is that we need to foster an environment that doesn't allow inactivity, this is clearly the best environment to have and thus we should strive for it. How we will deal with people that are inactive anyways is another matter. Also people should, eventually, share most of their thoughts. Holding back your thoughts initially to build on them is fine, I already find some things scummy but I am waiting to add to this so as not to let the person/people I find scummy change what they are doing so soon.

Can you clarify please? I think you mean you basically eyerolled at my post at the second line and didn't bother reading it. Could you clarify what you meant, and in the future not post your thought in the form of GIFs and images?


It was a long post made immediately after the day post, which means it was planned and probably planned regardless of alignment. It says nothing about your alignment and only about some bs intentions you plan to traffic cop about to appear like you're doing shit for the game. I don't really care about reading more than a paragraph because it won't teach me anything about your alignment. I will continue to post pictures, deal with it.

Its kind of amusing though because I asked that people don't abuse the 10 post rule by just posting 10 substance-less posts and calling it a day, which is the exact impression he is giving me by first not even reading my post (at least that's what I assume his post quoting me meant, until he clarifies as I have asked him to do) and by expressing everything in images or GIFS.

@ ritoky
Please stop expressing thoughts in this manner, if you want to add them on at the end fine, but posting only an image or gif, or only a one liner followed by an image/gif is in no way helpful.

A good town environment is one in which no one is allowed to lurk or be passive and not post much of their thoughts. While I honestly don't know any of the players in this game I believe some are new so to them and to everyone else, you have to post. Whether you are 100% sure in your reads or not, posting is good for town. Even if your reads are wrong, being active is good for town to figure out the game. I refuse to allow the game to be a passive one where several people are lurking and not being active and contributing to the conversation because that automatically makes the game harder on town and lessens town's win chance. The 10 post per cycle rule enacted by the host is a good first step but I think it is up to us to make sure that people don't abuse the rule by just posting the minimum number of times and saying nothing of substance.

Now what I said applies to every game of course, an active town is always better than a passive town with several lurkers; but I particularly wanted to lead in with this point because I already feel like we might be heading in the direction of a passive/inactive town. So this is directed to everyone but specifically directed @ Damdred and Tictock:

Damdred and Tictock already posted before the start of the game that they might not be active. Here are Dam's and TT's posts I am referring to:

Not very motivated atm, might pick up as the game goes on, we'll see

sorry


Thankfully they have both said that they are just sort of busy at the start but will have more time and be more active. I just want to urge them both to be as active as they can from the start, that way everyone can gets reads on them and we don't let them both through just because they aren't active in the first phase but might be in the phases after.

Just to be clear though, I am not accusing either of you nor am I suspicious of you for it, because those statements are clearly not alignment indicative because they were made before the game began and people had their roles. I am just saying that I refuse to allow the game to devolve into a passive town game with people lurking and posting nothing of substance and those events already have me worried that we may find ourselves in that position. So I urge you, along with everyone else, to be as active as you can, even if you are strapped for time.

Now that that is out of the way, could those who have played in games with some of the other people in the game (or if you know them) tell me who the strong players? I haven't played mafia on here since 2012 so I have no idea who the good players are and I think knowing this is helpful. I know this request seems a bit scummy ("Oh you wan't to know who the good players are so you can get rid of them!") but I will just concede that and say that knowing who is good tells everyone that those players:
a) should not be lurking because if they are good they are usually always active in their games (so if they are lurking and posting not much substance it will be suspicious),
and,
b) they would be valuable assets (so we should expect strong town play from them and we would expect mafia to try and get rid of them), both good pieces of information for town.

That is all I have for now, get to posting and being active everyone! :D


saw good town environment, stopped reading.

Can you clarify please? I think you mean you basically eyerolled at my post at the second line and didn't bother reading it. Could you clarify what you meant, and in the future not post your thought in the form of GIFs and images?


It was a long post made immediately after the day post, which means it was planned and probably planned regardless of alignment. It says nothing about your alignment and only about some bs intentions you plan to traffic cop about to appear like you're doing shit for the game. I don't really care about reading more than a paragraph because it won't teach me anything about your alignment. I will continue to post pictures, deal with it.


Crap, and I was like about ready to make that sure fire case on you too...

##Unvote

Even if the post was premade and is NAI, the content was at least good. Or do you have a different opinion about inactives ritoky?


There was 0 content. 1 post in the game was made before that post, thus it inherently was devoid of content. The only thing it could talk about was the 1 post before it and be relevant. It was planned and a waste of time so I didn't read it. It was just some dude stating "HEY I AM GONNA TRAFFIC COP" whoopdy doo. Coulda just done it w/o holding up a giant flag and wasting people's time.

Also fire case on page 3. lulz

A traffic cop is this guy:

but in mafia it is someone who devotes most of their time to trying to keep discussion "on topic" or "about the right issues" and such. someone who does more directing of players and the game than actually finding scum or giving information.

It's not. It's just annoying. But when you are belligerent towards town from day one, I don't see any reason to keep you in the game. I don't know enough about your meta to decide if this is town or mafia, but I'm happy to leave my vote where it is at the moment.


you might be mafia.
