So, boys and girls, I want to go on a little adventure with you guys. We're gonna go to this site over here:

http://mafiascum.net/

And expose them for false advertisement.

From their front page:

Welcome! You are at the largest (and best, of course) website dedicated to the game of Mafia.
Some could argue that they mean to insinuate that they aren't as good as this subset of a smash related forum, but I prefer to take it as an insult to my pride and instead go over there and crush their accepted meta. However, I can't do it alone. They have strength in numbers that forces conformity. This is where you come in. We shall travel in groups to crush the hateful cowards where they cannot gang up to punish players for making decisions outside of their woefully limited norm.

I need to gauge interest, so who will enlist?



Current soldiers in the war against oppression:

1.) Ryker
2.)
3.)
4.)
5.)
6.)
7.)

It's voluntary. Besides, they wouldn't particularly add to the confusion as we would not be allowed to reveal it.

You have to play in 2 newbie games before you're allowed to play in regular games just fyi.

Unless their policy changed recently.

Well, I can't say you'd be accomplishing your goal if you just went and did it to newbie games.

Small steps, brother. If you're not in it to win it, then you're just not ready for the main event.

Mafiascum plays more than a little bit differently from DGames. Half of them can't use the word "WIFOM" correctly and they enjoy enforcing HORRENDOUS policies such as LAL (Lynch All Liars).

A lot of plays that DGames makes (Dayvig gambit for example or lying about your role before revealing the real one when you've confirmed that a player was using a night action) would result in a lynch or HEAVY pressure for no other reason than that it's different.

Someone make a signup thread.

We can do bimonthly MS raids, using different accounts every time.
The idea isn't to bring down their site. Playstyle terrorism to bring them to our way of thinking; that's the agenda.

Multiple accounts aren't feasible; they would notice the pattern of 6-10 new accounts popping up at the same time every two weeks, and all of them joining the same game.


The strategy here is as follows:
a) The DG team signs up
b) The DG team join a game
c) Win that ****
d) Repeat (b) and (c)


This is a long-term mission with intent to generate, and be the seed of, the new MS metagame.
(If I'm wrong, let me know.)

I want to get in on this noble cause, but I find watching it unfold will be more entertaining.

I'll think about it and see who else joins.

Fun thought: If we publicly advertise as the DGames Team or something and any one person from MS looks it up, this thread will be something they notice.

That's why we don't?

I think the idea is more subtle than that. If we announce ourselves as an invading force, they'll defend their meta. We need to be stealthy; think double agent across the Berlin Wall, Cold War stealthy.

Ryker might have something more in-your-face in mind, I don't want to put words in his mouth.

Personally, I think we're talking Tactical Espionage Action on this one. And no cute hinting that there's something going on -- we're behind enemy lines and the Reich is going to shoot you if they find out.

And then we need to talk policy; do we even use our names from DG?

I might be down for this, but at the same time, unless our ultimate goal is to draw players here, seems like a waste of our time.

I want to see LAK play again with the same exact posting restriction as TTGL.

I have done that before and got lynched for it.

Exactly why we need to go there, establish a majority presence in a game, and then completely break their ****ing meta.

oh wait i haven't given a definitive answer

I'd join if I had time. But I'm currently in two mafia games while juggling 19 credit hours. Maybe over the summer, but definitely not now.
