Sounds like someone doesn't like hunting scum.

Vote: Rake

Why did this warrant a vote?

 

[Orboknown]

Towniest so far for me would be Dietz. Rest are null. You're more null than Orbo since I have yet to see you play.

Why did you say everything he had done was null but say he was towniest?

 

[Orboknown]

I'm becoming really suspicious of Rake asking me what I'm personally looking out for when I scum hunt. Not seeing town intent in that at all... That's the type of question I asked in my very first Mafia game cause I legitimately had no idea how to scum hunt...

Rake knows how to scum hunt.

What you look for scumhunting =\= how you expect mafia to go at the setup

 

[The Real Gamer]

Think of that vote as a little scum hunting motivation. lol

It was mostly an RVS vote. Might be my first serious vote depending on how Rake answers my questions.

 

[Orboknown]

Im showering. Ill be back in a few minutes

I don't see a difference... I'd be giving him information that would allow scum to adjust their play, especially since it's so early in the game. Don't see how a question like that would contribute to scum hunting.

Why did you say everything he had done was null but say he was towniest?

He asked me if I absolutely had to make a town read who it'd be, so I said Dietz.

Most people will not play to the setup so its more a question of how you would do it.

But there had to be something that differentiates his posts from being null

How I'd play as Mafia you mean? If so that's an odd question...

I'm liking his demeanor and aggressive approach as opposed to his last game.

I'm probably about to get ninjad since I'm watching the Heat/Pacers game.

 

[Orboknown]

Well it's an indirect way of seeing if you follow this plan of yours and we can. Use it as a small basis to read you

 

[The Real Gamer]

Wow surprised nobody else has posted... Slow start I guess.

General question for anyone to answer: You are a married man currently intoxicated at a dance club. A hot woman approaches you and starts dancing with you. At first it starts innocently enough but after a while things start heating up a bit (and by heating up I'm talking a little booty to frontal action... none of that awkward high school prom friend zone ****). After a while you notice you begin to become sexually aroused. Do you continue to dance with this woman? Yes or no?

 

[Orboknown]

I can guarantee you i know rakes answer
But imo it depends on the girl and what kind of mood she is in

 

[Jdietz43]

How I'd play as Mafia you mean? If so that's an odd question...

Not really, why not answer the question? You aren't mafia after all...

completely depends on his response

That is literally the vaguest answer possible (but totally a fair answer lol)

 

[Jdietz43]

@TRG booty dance question: No, and I'm surprised I'm in that kind of club in the first place

 

[The Real Gamer]

Well if I were Mafia I'd do the same thing I always do: look obvtown, establish connections, and hunt scum.

Lousy answer ik... Maybe I'm more tired than I think and am a bit slow atm but I'm still struggling to understand the point of this question and what it achieves.

 

[Jdietz43]

Also drinking.

This metaphor just gets worse and worse all the time...

You're thinking too hard about it, why not just tell us what you'd really do?

 

[Jdietz43]

Here I'll even help you: I for one would chillax and take it easy as I'd have no partner.

 

[Orboknown]

All the appreciation for lando

 

[The Real Gamer]

I have no problem answering it (#1973). I just don't understand it cause doesn't it create one of those scenarios that leads to circular logic? WIFOM I think it's called?

I could sit here and answer "hmmm I were scum I'd probably act 'x' way." But then if I were actually scum I'd intentionally avoid playing that way... unless if Town was expecting me to intentionally avoid playing "x" way as scum, so then maybe I SHOULD go ahead and play "x" way, and then the cycle continues.

It's rake he lives on answers to questions like that,just answer it and let us read you

Vote: TRG

 

[Jdietz43]

You shouldn't have to avoid playing any way, because you're not scum, right?

So

and let us in.

 

[Orboknown]

Rake get back in here

 

[The Real Gamer]

That's my secret Dietz... I'm never scum.

Lol I feel like I'm being trolled here but fine I'll answer the question as seriously as possible this time (though I'm still struggling to see how this will help but if you guys insist)...

IFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF (strong emphasis on the "IFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF") I were Mafia this game... My first order of business would be to establish my "towniness" among the majority right off the bat. For starters I'd focus on you Orbo. Due to your ability to read me I'd intentionally do everything I could to replicate the way I played in our last mafia game as a means of hoping to get another "town read" from you. Jdeitz I'd find any excuse to town read you cause based on our last game I feel like you're the type of player that would be more likely to town read me if I town read you (just a gut feeling). My next order of business would involve sniffing out who the governor is and try to get them on my side through any means necessary (my method specifically would be player dependent but in terms of finding out who the governor is I have no idea). I'd make sure to intentionally make some of my town reads look a bit amateurish since I'm not supposed to be a good enough town player to make 100% accurate reads yet.

I have more to add but I'm getting too wrapped up in this Heat/Pacers game to care. 1 minute left in 4Q Heat up 95-92. Pacers ball.

 

[The Real Gamer]

Why did Smashboards change my font size?

Am I allowed to edit it to normal size?

 

[Jdietz43]

No,

(and i have no idea sometimes that just happens)

 

[Orboknown]

It happens randomly and no you cant

 

[The Real Gamer]

Heat win by 3

 

[Jdietz43]

Well that was an elaborate answer, if you had so many self specific ideas in mind why not just answer the first time Rake asked?

 

[The Real Gamer]

Real talk I didn't even understand what he was trying to ask in the first place.

 

[The Real Gamer]

But now that I've answered do you guys really have a stronger read on me this game as of now?

 

[Jdietz43]

How would you expect mafia to play in this sort of set up trg ?

Seems very clear to me.

 

[Jdietz43]

But now that I've answered do you guys really have a stronger read on me this game as of now?

Oh yes, definitely.

 

[The Real Gamer]

Seems very clear to me.

I didn't understand he was asking how I specifically would play mafia in this sort of setup, because the way I'd play mafia is most likely much different than how someone else would play.

 

[The Real Gamer]

Oh yes, definitely.

Well good cause this means you know I'm town now.

This game feels like it's being played by 3 people.

 

[Jdietz43]

I didn't understand he was asking how I specifically would play mafia in this sort of setup, because the way I'd play mafia is most likely much different than how someone else would play.

Oh, well you see he didn't. He asked you how mafia might play, and Orbo slowly turned that into "How would you play": which you refused to answer.

 

[The Real Gamer]

Oh, well you see he didn't. He asked you how mafia might play, and Orbo slowly turned that into "How would you play": which you refused to answer.

I didn't want to answer because it felt like a pointless question. I'm expecting explanations from you and Orbo once this game is over cause I still don't see what a question like that accomplishes.

 

[Orboknown]

Its a mindset thing. Theres a general way mafia should aim at in a given setup but you wouldnt know how to do that.

 

[Orboknown]

Like fmpov mafia.would aim at hitting indy early on because lyncher can endgame them and thats obv bad
