True, we could offer the ultimatium though of either shooting the sherriff or just being shot themselves.

Yeah, but let's not worry about that unless the situation does pop up.

What I really want to know is what Macman wanted to get out of his question. I see no benefit to Sheriff claiming early to town, it only helps mafia by avoiding being shot themselves.

yea i only ask cuz its a good question easy way to get ppl talkin

but yea id have to think about it, i dont think the game changes much irregardless. one thing to note, the first shot is mad important, if town shoots town/sheriff then maf can coordinate shots and win mad easy. i think in that scenario, if you're town you have to shoot someone else directly after.

wait

so if town shoots town
theres a sheriff left, assuming sheriff can shoot, he HAS to shoot someone to stop the threat of

(woah sheriff better not claim. Scum most likely HAS to shoot sheriff last or have town shoot sheriff if they wanna maximize their chance of winning. a side note, this makes sheriff a nice cc for scum to make)

stop the thread of the 2 maf quick shots. only the sheriff should shoot becuz if other town shoots, theres a chance theyll shoot sheriff and game over.

hmm lol this setup has way more depth than i thought initially

This is deffo going to be a fun game. A lot less confusing/swingy then reincarnation.

@Macman: I would probably die if we hard-bodied Marshy D1.

1805 is information that shouldn't be put in the open, it eliminates the chance for town to pick up on certain scum tells directly related to the mechanics of this game

also how people interact with others will be interesting. mafia is cursed by know who there partner is so they hav eto deliberately interact with them in a certain way

they have to play charades

now the question for you becomes do you think i did it on purpose knowing that it could hurt town? (this is debatable btw, i think its more important to assure that after a ****ty first shot, the correct **** goes down) do you think macmanscum would out relevant game mechanics information/strategy?

i actually want answers to these. actually think it over

Idk why but I feel like playing tihs game with just cold analysis like I do behind the scenes before making posts haha.

JTB+Macman =/= Scum-team.

That's one pairing out of the way

Macman, Soup
Macman, Marshy
Soup, Marshy
Soup, JTB
Marshy, JTB

If I take out JTB since he is a town-read, that only leaves 3 plausible teams for being scum.

Also the only answer there is is "possibly" because it is WIFOM and I don't know you that well as a player Macman so I don't really know what you would and wouldn't do.

*shrug*

you can't speculate from a generic vantage point and consider what a generic actor whose scum vs a generic actor whose town would do?

wifom is an easy way to dismiss having to think about **** that goes down in mafia. since when you think about it, almost every action/statement has an element of WIFOM.

i think someone who actually thought about it wouldn't find what i did to be scummy so im trying to ascertain whether JTB (and you) still think its scummy after thinking about it

I don't see what Macman did exactly to get shot, in fact I couldn't help but agree what he was getting at first.

What was he getting at then? Since he doesn't want to explain it and rather skirt the issue.

Simple game mechanics and speculation about how this could be won, really, this setup is a bit swingy in that both scum have a gun and initially were they to just double shoot right now they could win the game, they basically can't aim for the sheriff and for that purpose, macman didn't want for the sheriff to claim.

Basically he wanted to keep sheriff out of sight so scum didn't have a selective pick of just the two regular deputies and therefore just instantly win the game on a quick-draw, and that town could basically only win this by making sure the sheriff is shot, which any logical scum player would know would indefinitely get them killed.

If the case being that, macman is scum, we're in a good position. If Macman was anything else BUT sheriff, then scum already know who to quick-shoot and instantly win the game.

I find JTB's hasty shot quick to the jump the gun, but not a scum shot. I don't think JTB would risk not being able to shoot another 48 hours and expect his scum partner to come in and clean up the mess, I don't really feel Macman is gonna flip scum though.
