Mafia [GAME THREAD] Karen Mafia (Endgame - Mafia Wins)

[Tensu]

After thinking for a while, I’m gonna go ahead and say I have a very slight scum lean on Ronishy. They seem to be active in the game but haven’t said anything very original throughout their several posts. I get the impression that they are playing cautiously and waiting before saying anything that would jeopardize their appearance. I’m getting sort of sheepy vibes from their posts:

The info from endless and Antonio has been useful to me, but I disagree about a rng lynch. We still have time.
I do not need a face mask, as I need to sniff out fake Karen's!

(Everyone disagrees with the rng lynch, so safe bet)

I thought endless made a valid point, memeing is easy and funny but it doesn't progress the game much.
We need more serious questions to work out who the maf are.
My eye is on ace.

(Agreeing with endless and calling for “serious questions,” when he hasn’t offered any himself)

With the exception of calling out Ace, nothing has been too significant at all. But I guess the Ace’s mood/attitude thing is a fair enough point. I have no familiarity with his play style so I honestly can’t say for sure. Either way, I don’t think this matter is of any particular importance (but I could be wrong). The only thing that has me second guessing is the fact that Ronishy is a very new player, and could just be acting like a timid townie. If he really is scum, then I don’t know how the other two might instruct him to act. Or if his responses are limited in substance because scum are not yet sure how to approach this game. Take this with a grain of salt though, your guesses are probably as good as mine right now.

from his overtly defensive reaction that he absolutely didn't expect much attention from the post. Hence incorrect premise -> read is invalid.

But the RNG thing isn't what drew attention, it was Aerious' claim that Antonio could be faking a question regarding the setup of the game. That's what the debate was about in the end.

 

[epona]

i was going to make a reads post but then realised that all of my townleans are just people who've posted pretty much anything substantial at all

 

[Ace Marvel]

omg ace did you make a tarot reading of the game that's iconic

I was slight SLing Ace but above brings me back to null for him. I think the nervousness in his posting was because of that more than alignment-related reasons.
Dedenne I guess given our small amount of info and my lack of townread on her at all, I'd be fine with it if nothing else crops up? I'd like to look for someone else though with the time we've got. @dedenne Who would you lynch right now?
Ronishy feels very much reliant on riding on coat-tails I feel like. First me, then glow. Not a fan but unsure if alignment indicative. @Ronishy even if you're echoing someone else, could you explain your general thoughts on what's going on in thread right now? I'd like to hear it in your own voice.
Epona felt like she was thinking aloud which I liked but also I felt like she white knighted Dedenne. Jumping in to her defense before Dedenne even got the chance to reply isn't sitting well with me.

Felt like she was thinking aloud was re: looking at people early day w/ memeing stuff

Except for mashes, because huge, I always make a read on players one card, you got strength, which is a townie card, sadly no one got the chariot, which could be a power team between you two.

the defense of dedenne was really just because glow and i were liveposting in the thread at the time so i was just bouncing off her posts

lmfao the first time i played with ace when he pulled out the tarot cards and the conspiracy board i-

 

[voltairenism]

..Lack of activity? Do I want to know how much he normally posts?

honestly I think ace seems completly normal, I don't know where people are seeing the strangeness

also I felt like she white knighted Dedenne. Jumping in to her defense before Dedenne even got the chance to reply isn't sitting well with me.

Yea I would prefer to leave it since glow gave a strong sus but it sits well with epona way of always voicing her opinion

 

[epona]

agree and don't know why people jumped on that, especially people who have played with him before
if anything he seems more normal to me than he did in the last game

 

[Aerious]

aerious/epona seemed more hesitant on antonio and listed ness as an example why, i mean fair enough but i don't think antonio and ness have similar play styles/experience levels at all

i never mentioned ness. i said they shouldn’t be tl’d based on that. i actually slightly tl antonio for an entirely different reason: he prefers mafia in rqs. may be tin foil theory, but i genuinely believe that one of the mafia is hiding in “town alignment” preference to seem inconspicuous. same way i thought remy was cop in janitorial — i didn’t think they were mafia for owning up to forgetting an action. knowing some players here, i don’t think some would want to potentially set themselves apart in that manner. same way last game every single mafia tl’d me early
on that note

i’m willing to set anyone up for elim who dodged the rqs. i’m also willing to elim dedenne for the “i’m bad at mafia” in rqs and ace for the same reason “never rolled mafia.”

honestly though, i’m completely grasping at straws at this point and rn i just feel like

 

[FyreNyx]

I will try to step up my game. Some of you have made valid points which I agree to. I will try to add more original observations.

 

[Arstotzkan]

but i genuinely believe that one of the mafia is hiding in “town alignment” preference to seem inconspicuous

if anyone's basing their answer to that q based on their alignment, then they're lul since that's the sort of thing that gets repeated every game. I don't think a maf would change that answer up because they wanna seem "normal". I've always taken that as a way to try to match the player's enthusiasm for the game w// their RQS answer than anything else.

that big ass picture followed by the tiny lemon smiley got me to laugh aloud though

If u want my honest thoughts:
no idea

if i have to choose someone:
frick. i would choose someone but id have no real reason for choosing them. sorry if this isnt the answer u wanted, but i like to have reasons for lynching someone. so i kinda have a problem rn yikes

girl i’m gonna be honest w you, i have literally nothing this phase so i’m going on a tinfoil adventure

ngl I feel like ace is always lhf for mafia, all scumchat say to try to dogpille him, so..

Well, given you're town, lynching anyone is a 3/14 chance of them being maf right? Just based on RNG. A lynch on you would be a 0% chance of hitting maf, and a 3/14 chance is bigger than 0/14.

But you'd basically be RNGing it?

to be fair ace does this every single game
it does have to be wrong eventually though lol

 

[g u a v a]

re: the ace thing i too was not expecting so many others to chime in lol

also almost eod :sad:

 

[Aerious]

that’s what i mean. i did the same thing on em where i got blue with shawo 14 times in a row and eventually i was maf, in a lobby w the same people believing that i was still a townie and hating life. ace doing this every game will eventually lead to him as mafia doing the same thing

 

[dedenne]

no. idk if uve read a game where im mafia. but im bad. like objectively. bad.
