Only reason I'm not at the moment is because FF mafia is running and that looks like a goddamn monster.

I know it's a faux pas to talk about other games, but I joined this because I was certain I was going to die in FF mafia. Yay! I'm going to have to find a way to jot down roles in two games at once now without going insane!

A person can caveat thoughts on day 1 and still be saying relevant things to a discussion. Saying, "I think x is likely, but y is a possibility as well" is not in fact saying nothing.

areyoucontagious posted:No lynch is a powerful tool. We used it a few times in Kash's flipless game. I was in a game recently where it turned out I was kingmaker on the final day between mafia and an SK. I realise now if I'd chosen to nolynch that day I probably would have won the game for town. (Assuming an order of operations where if the sk and mafia decide to kill each other both resolve.)

Quidthulhu posted:I'm not saying this isn't a possibility but you guys are acting like "faking content" isn't something scum need to do in this game. It is very possible that that is fake content from AYC. What? Why the hell would I hard call people on their D1 behaviour when I have like all of four posts to go off of? Why would my response look better if I hard called based on basically no information? Question 1: His response seems completely reasonable given that you vote him for advancing cautious arguments on D1. Question 2: You given how hard you're pushing people on basically nothing. Other than that I have too little information to make meaningful calls. Am I going to vote for you? No, because D1 lynches are bad.

Quidthulhu posted:What is with this new wave of mafia players who think D1 is useless This is untrue because D2 follows N1 where powers go off and someone gets killed by scum. We have fundamentally more information in all circumstances and I'm more comfortable lynching then. The D1 information isn't worth a town member dying because we're fundamentally lazy players that go for stupid lynches early. It's like how on D1 if Infinitum is in the game he's eating the lynch like 60-70% of the time.

EXAKT Science posted:The only way that town gets info from N1 is if power roles out themselves day 2 (usually bad play). The flip from an NK is WORTH very little as information compared to a day flip Nah not true, the town roles themselves get information which means that town has information by proxy even without outing themselves. You have much more to work off of which is why I'm okay with D2 lynches.

Hello friends. I can probably shed some light on this. I was in a masonry with Fisk. Combined we were a town aligned JOAT. We could track, watch or gunsmith people. Fisk would pick the JOAT ability to use and I would pick the target. With Fisk dead we've lost JOAT since I can target people but can't JOAT. So I'm VT for the rest of the game. I can say that we tracked Gif last night and he didn't visit anyone.

Pinterest Mom posted:this is really opportunistic. Really? Man is trying to get his giftees to come out as his giftees. If they do so scum are likely to murder them tonight because they have admitted powers. It's a play I don't understand because it's bizarre if he's town and also additionally bizarre if he's scum. If he's town it's odd because of the above, if he's scum, why does scum have the ability to grant abilities to other players and why would they give those abilities to town.

Added Space posted:Yeah, very new. Hey, I had to claim to avoid a landslide vote so I could use my power. I don't know if my gift receivers are town either, so people knowing I gave something to somebody might help in the long run. Have you in any way breadcrumbed what your gifts were? There could be multiple roles going about that do similar things.

Added Space posted:Reading wiki articles on Janitor, they do say that in many cases the janitor gets the flip information and should then claim the role that person had. If we assume I'm the scum janitor and fakeclaimed the role I just killed what would the logical play be? I'd probably claim to have tracked another scum player that I knew didn't move that night and then they'd come to my defense saying that's correct. The problem I have is that we tracked gif because Jfisk suggested it at the beginning of the night and then went afk because of thanksgiving. I actually suggested that we should use gunsmith instead because to me that's like having a cop, but he wasn't around for it. Eventually he got a PM to somber saying he was definitely picking track and so I kept to the original plan. So unfortunately, now, the only person who can verify what I've said is a guy who has posted all of like four times since the game started.

Captain Foo posted:Let's examine: it doesn't tell us anything! any random flip is most likely to be town. all this does is give YT a free claim on town that's basically unconfirmable, because gif isn't posting anyway and indeed was nearly lynched for being a lurker. Holy gently caress you're a dense motherfucker aren't you.

Added Space posted:Reading wiki articles on Janitor, they do say that in many cases the janitor gets the flip information and should then claim the role that person had. AS literally suggests that I might be the scum janitor claiming to be assuming the role of the person that flipped. This is an awful case to make based off of either poorly reading what I've written and the context in which it was written or deliberately obscuring stuff to build a claim.

Hal Incandenza posted:YTs claim smells bad, and it seemed like a prepared statement more than a natural reaction to events. Look the only thing I can say is that I wouldn't take a risk like that as scum to generate information and I wouldn't name gif unless I'd actually tracked the guy. Like honestly as town the worst case scenario for me is dying and confirming two flips for you as well as a night action, which is a really, really, good worst case.

Kashuno posted:##vote YT let's kill early and get this extended d1 out of the way. Et tu Kashuno. Seriously though if you want a lynch target it should be Foo. Let's examine: I initially get accused by Foo and post this rebuttal to the argument. Since quoting is weird, just click the quote to see. The only response I get to that is: Followed by this: Captain Foo posted:Pinterest Mom who do you think is the scum Which foo uses to basically ignore anything I've said. Then, Quid posts a reasonable explanation of why I'm unlikely to be scum which Foo then laughs off. But additionally when pushed, provides an explanation that makes no sense: Captain Foo posted:It requires an understanding of what the scum abilites and strategy are This is bullshit. For a lot of reasons, if I were to assume this then I couldn't assume anything about scum motives ever for the first two to three days of the game. That's an insane way to play mafia. We can and often do assume at least some scum capabilities based on what we imagine a fair game might look like. These get revised and updated as time goes on but this doesn't mean we can't initially do something. It also bears mentioning, how does Foo, if this is true, know what "seems" like scummy play to begin with? It's because he's assuming things about the setup of the game to come to the conclusion that I'm scum to begin with, but when shown that this makes me more likely to be town, he rejects it. ##vote Captain Foo I have literally no problem with being apathy lynched, but there's a case here that we're dropping for no good reason. The information I'll provide is strong enough that it's likely to help town fairly significantly anyway.

EXAKT Science posted:YT what is your read on Opop? Reads as extremely lazy. What's actually interesting is that his vote sits on Foo and then switches to me. This reads as scummy to me as Foo and I are in opposite corners and it looks like Opop is just trying to cross one of us off the board and it doesn't matter which.

Sorry to clarify. BK and I were chatting a lot in our mason disco. BK replaced out but did when i was asleep and somber created a new disco for me and jfisk. I didn't know that had happened and hadn't checked disco so jfisk mentioned PMing me here to get me to look at the new mason disco. In retrospect I should probably have led with that to confirm that I wasn't lying about the masonry.
