I'm in if you'll have me. I haven't played Mafia here before but I've played it offline (although the rules seem a bit different), so I guess we'll see what happens.

I did already read the standard rules on the wiki, but thanks for the advice. (Biggest difference I've noticed so far -- none of the offline games I played in flipped the roles of dead players.)

Poison Mushroom posted:Oh, wow. I've never played a no-flip game before. Seen 'em, never played. How many games did town win, on average? Wasn't really counting, but they definitely won some. I think the scum team might have been relatively small. In retrospect the lack of information does take a lot of the strategy out of it. But playing offline is very different from a forum game in any case.

Why is the miller called a "miller" anyway? I don't really see what the name has to do with the effect.

Liberal Crime Squad Mafia is the best idea I've heard all day. But would the LCS be town or scum?

The OP was deliberately cagey about whether Nobles are really town or not. SoS, can you elaborate on your role? Is "declare someone hated each day, and is permanently hated once revealed" the entirety of your ability?

Mafia edit: I guess if you have more tricks up your sleeve you're not about to share with the class. But still, the timing seems pretty odd.

The nobles might all be individually aligned (some town, some third party, some scum maybe) rather than an entire faction unto themselves; in fact it seems more likely because SoS's day 1 nobleclaim would make little sense if they were a hidden faction all aligned together (unless something really odd is going on with their win condition, or SoS is actually very stupid). On SoS: I wouldn't be against lynching a noble, but we may not learn much from an SoS lynch right now. I do kinda wish I knew if the CPig condemnation was for an actual reason though. (If someone is an unusual third party or whatever, does the flip include any kind of explanation usually?) If MEDS is saying what I think they're saying -- and if it's actually true -- I don't really want to lynch them yet, but they're acting pretty drat weird and also I have no idea how to react to someone asserting "half of a gambit." I mean come on. The case against 3E seems awfully weak to me honestly. I mean, was there even anything to it besides a shaky-sounding reading of BN as town? I don't understand why being slow to contribute is suspicious in someone who's still getting used to this game, but unfortunately the horrible jerks pointing fingers at me seem at least plausibly town so far. Long story short, I'm not buying what MEDS is selling and I don't have a better idea on anyone else. ##vote MEDS CURE SCHIZOS

Odd. Can't remember you even bringing me up until now. Of course, a couple others did but there wasn't much reasoning besides "not active enough." Perhaps you'd care to elaborate?

Wow. I guess the newbie makes an easy target. As for Hal, I don't think there was ever a real case against him, unless MEDS had an actual reason for the immediate "joke" vote. But we didn't have a Night zero, right?

Dr. Hurt posted:I know other people have said this, but Jefepato is the scum. His huge post at the last 8 minutes reeked of "my scum team told me to post something so I'd better let my views of everybody be known." The people pointing fingers at me for not being very active are what told me to get my rear end in gear and post stuff. Then work+dinner ran late and I didn't get the chance to review the thread and post until kinda late that day. Dr. Hurt posted:His vote on 3E I did think the case on 3E was weak, but I decided to just gamble that the veteran players knew better than me, rather than risk a no-lynch (although SoS beat me to it). I was just annoyed because MEDS seemed really obvious. I don't know what to think about MEDS now. Is there a reason a non-scum kill would get janitored? Or are there roles out there that flip blank on their own?

To rephrase with the implication clearly stated: "because he was janitored, I now suspect MEDS might have actually been the scum kill. Is there a reason I should not think this (i.e., a reason why he would flip blank even if he was scum killed by non-scum)?"

I'm starting to wonder if nobles might just be a red herring. "You win with the town for now but this may change later, also you shouldn't let on that you're a noble" (assuming Grandi can be trusted, but it doesn't sound like a self-serving thing someone would make up so I kinda believe it)? It reminds me of the tabletop roleplaying thing where you visibly pass notes to players that say "Don't let the others know there is nothing on this note." Just stirring crap up. Poison Mushroom posted:Now seems as good a time to ask as any. How are deadlines working out so far for you guys? I was trying for a time that wouldn't conflict with other big games going on, but I don't know how successful I was. So far so good. I'd assumed this day was just extended because of the weekend or something, but it doesn't matter much to me as long as we have enough notice to get things done. CapitalistPig posted:I didn't, my decision to vote hurt comes from him being scum and nothing with the supposed slip. Then what thing were you referring to? What did he sure do?

Actually it occurs to me, that back on page 25 CPig was insisting that Hurt was scum becauseCapitalistPig posted:He did a thing im not allowed to talk about. This is pretty odd since CPig is also on the record claiming vanilla town...and as of just now so are you, Hurt?

I'm iffy on Hurt anyway. His case on me would've seemed sincere (even though it's wrong) if he wasn't in such a rush to get the heat off himself. ##vote CapitalistPig

Uh...that sure was a thing. If TT's a cop (I can tell you we're not masons) killing me now is dumb. I mean, it's dumb anyway but come the gently caress on.

The only thing I did right this game was to peg MEDS as a cop on day 1 and point my scumbuddies at him. I actually suggested we strongman-kill him because I thought I couldn't be the only one to figure out his weird softclaim. I'm slightly baffled by TT's defense of me; I can only assume he(?) misunderstood something? I admit I found it pretty funny that the tracker misread the ninja for reasons totally unrelated to the latter's power role, though.

Tremendous Taste posted:I tracked you nowhere. Between Ninja and literally anything else, I thought you as town was a safe call You tracked me accurately. I went nowhere. The fact that you wouldn't have seen me go anywhere even if I did go somewhere never actually became an issue.

Tremendous Taste posted:Why'd you choose not to do the kill, seeing as it's untrackable? Juanito had to personally do the kill in order for us to see the janitored flip. We found it pretty useful to be the only ones who knew MEDS had been the cop. Needless to say we didn't expect the ghost thing.

Also I'd like to congratulate my scumbuddies for pulling this one off despite me. I was really happy to be scum in my first SA Mafia game but I clearly don't know how to play it.

It's pretty weird to see people saying I did well here when it felt like I was getting called out as scum all over the place during the game. But thanks. In retrospect I suspect some of the accusations were just people trying to see how I'd react to pressure rather than me having really tipped my hand or anything, but half the time I really didn't grasp why people thought I was scum even though it was of course true. (I ended up basically ignoring posts that called me scum without really giving any reasoning; I have no idea how to respond to something like that decently.)
