So what's everyone's experience with forum mafia? I noticed in the signup thread that there was some discussion of mafia and mechanics and such, so just wondering. I've played less than a year, mostly on my homesite Forum of Lies.
I've been playing on and off for about 15 years, and I started playing right here at smashboards. I've dabbled on other sites thought such as mafiascum and XKCD
Hi Mao!
I heard who you might be, but I won't say more. Good to have you in the game.
what did you mean by the bolded? Is detective mao a player from another site deliberately using an alias to conceal who they are?
Rhand scum
Mao town
do werewolves typically get a nk or just mafia
vote: rhand
@ff gord chaco who am i meant to remember here? just you three?
Is anyone approaching Cello/Swiss/Ryker levels or is everyone Adumbrodeus and below?
I asked about the NK situation in upcoming games thread when the mod first pitched this setup and he said that both factions can NK
me, gorf, chaco and you are the only smashboards old guard in the game so no I wouldn't expect you to know or remember any of the other players
wouldn't argue that any of the non-old guard players are above adumbro's baseline but Eido is a very promising rookie. Xivii/Zen seemed to suggest pre-game that Scarlet Rage is an experienced player who could carry some clout in the game but I know nothing about him/her
Lol
@Swiss as if you can get definite alignment reads out of that conversation.
I have no idea how this works here with kills. I played one multiball once and there both teams had a kill.
Why don’t you tell us? You sound like a Werewolf playing dumb.
this comes off crazy defensive but masked as sarcasm, also just trying to pressure flip on the "can WW's NK" question is such a bizarre take and way to react to such a mechanical question
I've run through the maths and it's better if we all claim our roles now and force good votes. The set up is stacked against us.
So let's all claim now
bolded is uncomfortably vague, what did you mean exactly?
Eido - anyone with a join date later than 2014 is a nobody to me.
I know this started as a bandwagon but I'm actually happy with a rhand lynch here
anyone with a join date after 2006 is a nobody to me
rhand train is ballin, the HBC is proud
weird first post bro
##vote rhand
im ready for d2
#HBC
I didn't say that. I asked why you think it's a good idea to flag him as not VT.
We're playing multiball. There's no way I can be confident that anyone is town. Even if you really believed that I am not.
You're outed now: your attack on me is fake. You're too eager to jump at nothing.
Vote: Swiss
how do you go from saying that it's way too early in the game for someone to have such a solid read to suddenly being
very seriously convinced that such an early attack on you is fake? how did you not pick up on the fact that swiss was being deliberately hyperbolic in his confidence?
Swiss is going waaaay to hard at me for the stage of the game we’re in.
Gorf’s vote is totally opportunistic too. I would not be surprised if he flips the other faction.
double OMGUS here, are you saying that gorf and swiss are both scum but are NOT the same faction?
Are pressure wagons out of character at MTGS? If not then why do you knee jerk so badly to one with two votes?
lmao literally my reaction
I suspect it is as well, what about his response do you think belies his claim?
That’s typical here though. Going for the throat is pressure here, cause how else would it be effective if it was halfhearted?
Basically what I’m getting from this is that you think he’s overly confident pushing you and that’s a scum tell because he shouldn’t have that level of confidence this early D1? That’s where I would do my homework on him rather than pleading en masse that he’s gunning you down. Slots like that become easier to read because that’s a typical behavior that can be indicative one way. He’s giving you more information than you’re willing to look into and trying to explain off his advance rather than decipher the motive behind it and that’s why I don’t like this at all.
Chaco town
If I was 3p I would just replace out, Rhand knows my thoughts on 3p alignments
Rhand is not bothered, I can guarantee you that lol
do you understand how selfish it would be to do something like that and ruin the game for your replacement? if the playerbase knows you wont play certain roles and will replace out if you get them, you are essentially narrowing the possible roles you can ever be in a given game by virtue of the fact that you didn't replace out. Frankly if I was a mod I would not allow you to play in my games with an attitude like this, like if you can't handle playing certain roles, you should not be signing up for games that include the roles you refuse to play
I will say though, rhand is absolutely not panicking, regardless of his alignment
weird comment to make after spending your previous post saying that rhand's play has been largely NAI, little chainsaw-ish
Alright, thank you!
I actually think it would be beneficial to move on from Rhand vs Swiss argument. It's starting to become harmful to repeat the same things over and over, and I heavily doubt we're going to get anything else out of it because of that. I still maintain the opinion that the whole fight is silly, and both of the parties are reacting in a bad way – Swiss because of their overconfidence (as it doesn't seem to be just pressuring anymore), and Rhand because of their inability to see through the initial pressuring. While I do think this is bad, and I'm not going to move my vote from Rhand, I'd like to give them both a chance to focus on other people instead of getting caught up in a single conflict.
In other words... chill, people?
#HBC | Gorf
could you talk to me about your reads again?
Oh, don't worry, I'll make up for it by attracting attention and pressuring people so much no one will have the guts to attack me
Such as by asking you why you're so sure I'm town
Then again, it doesn't seem like the thread is going to die anytime soon. I just hope everyone will participate.
if you're scum you deserve an academy award for perfect noob town acting holy **** lmao
Because the things you said are not things you would have said if you weren't town.
Conclusion: you are town
this
I don’t think they’re aligned together. Swiss' attack looks too strong, and sensationalises Rhand’s play. It reminds me of Ryker's play at the beginning of Apex, like a strategy that forces content. I’m ok with Swiss right now.
swiss is just british ryker so treat his slot accordingly and you have the right approach
Gorf you’re different this game than I last saw you, whether that be due to time now or faction I gotta go back and look.
picked up on this too, gorf def reads different this game. he was scum last time though so it legit could be he's town this time
