Mafia June 2020 Mafia Game Thread [DAY 2 ENDS AT 6/20 5PM PST]

@shawo
Really my only experience is playing it with friends at school but it’s much more simple obviously.
I think I’m doing ok for my first time playing it here tho

 

[epona]

It doesn't.

I'm trying to process my thoughts right now, I'm just mildly impressed (?) by what just happened because nobodies ever blasted me for something I feel like I normally do lol. He's going to have something to say about this but I am genuinely kind of thinking he's town now.

i don't enjoy the way the qualification for not being scumread by you is that we have to somehow personally 'impress' you

 

[Damniel]

Lothitine - town
Ness - null
Ace - scum
Feferily - null
Toads - town leaning
Shawo - scum
glow - town
Sensai - scum leaning
Heyden - null
Aerious - town
Daniel - null
Pinkshade - null
Mayor Leaf - scum leaning
Frogslime - town leaning
Bianca - town leaning
Punchy - scum
Epona - town leaning
@toadsworthy
Again, mostly gut feeling

can you explain your reads on sensai, mayor, and frogslime (this is the most confusing to me)


also i’m taking mayor out of my PoE for today. I think her latest questions have been good and seem town motivated

 

[Ace Marvel]

If I have learnt anything, is that I stay middle ground, D1-D2 never enough votes to kill me, and Mafia keeps me alive, as I'm a decoy for one of them when the wagon phase starts, after that is obvious, and I get kill the next day, either by town or mafia. I flip town, everyone is shocked, how could it be and then I become super active in the obs chat. Baby that's how I roll.

So I will call it, you will not stops sus me, but won't kill me, I will survive N1, D2 you will look deeper into me and still believe I'm scum but someone will show up and take my place.
By then you will start town reading me. I'm sorry I'm not a "good" town, but at least I'm consistent with my actions, all game long.

So don't expect clear answers, don't expect logical explanations, don't expect good reads, but I want to make something clear, my intentions are always genuine.

Did you ever play with Minties? It's eerie to me how much you're channeling her with this passive aggressiveness.

Look man, this post is awful.

 

[g u a v a]

1. personally, probably aerious, daniel and mayor leaf. in terms of mafia meta, probably daniel and mayor leaf

2.
aerious = slight townlean
daniel = townlean
mayor leaf = honestly null, her vastly different playstyle in this game compared to the last is throwing me

3. i answered this already

i told you last game, you taught me to play better! :>

--

I definitely agree with the ppl saying that Shawo and Ace seem kinda sus

I definitely am thinking they are scum,,

To be honest,, I really dunno what to say but, yeah,, haha

Mayor Leaf - scum leaning

ok this throws me off. you agree with my potential scum reads but then think i'm also scum with the scum im calling out?

 

[epona]

i did actually, lol, we were friendly

i mean you’ve only played one game here i think you’re overstating your meta

clear answers are how we know you’re genuine. you telling us that isn’t convincing. you need to be transparent with your thought process but i don’t see that with the glow wagon

Thanks for the answer, I was definitely getting that feeling from how you were posting. I think that's enough for me to "give you a free pass." Even though I do think you forced yourself to have an opinion one way or another for each given user at the table, rather than those being raw reads.

Well that might not be true, but it's how the reads felt.

 

[Aerious]

this is uncalled for.

ate started? it'd be different if your wagon was productive, but it could've thrown for us, and it wasn't for a great reason either/unclear to me tbh. not to mention no shocking leads came from it

Post automatically merged: Jun 16, 2020

what i'm trying to say is the glow wagon seemed entirely unproductive and purposely chaotic, e.g. maf trying to throw us off

 

[Lothitine]

why am i definitive town to you? why is frogslime town leaning with one post? why toads town and shawo scum?

can you explain your reads on sensai, mayor, and frogslime (this is the most confusing to me)

Like said, mostly gut feeling but now that I think about it I think Mayor is definitely town leaning.
I’m really bad about just following my first impression, that’s mostly what this list was.

why don't you try to do better reads to avoid being a confusing lynch candidate... also i don't understand why you are talking like this at all? it just isn't helpful?

also I don't like how aerious just kinda bops around and just like calls out something really obvious... I want more a clear train of thought from you rather than a pot-stirrer by saying someone is "parroting" "getting scot-free"

can you give me a quick list of all your current reads? like what Loth did

 

[Aerious]

not to mention the second attempt of throwing town off a productive conversation with ness v. shawo

 

[toadsworthy]

@Aerious can you give me your quick reads of all players... listing each as scum null or town leans

 

[shawo]

I think it's interesting how people are reacting to the Loth reads, what did that actually tell anyone?

To me I was under the impression they were forced out, and with the information that they're new to TBT, it seems like that's why.

i made my list a few pages ago w/ reasoning, so i'm not stirring the pot w/o an inclination

 

[shawo]

Oh and Mayor Leaf has the best reaction to them by far.

Super impressed with their game specifically.

 

[g u a v a]

ok wow that was a record flip.

 

[glow]

i have to say, you keep holding a standard over my head despite the fact that i'm starting to get back into the jive of things. i'm admittedly rusty. i haven't backed away when people don't agree, i'm asking because i want reactions to compare statements to. saying that i'm non-confrontational because i'm trying to lay a foundation is hasty. you also have to keep in mind that thus far, it feels like not much has been accomplished, so it feels like i have to brute force reactions. teddy threw the one thing that could've provided info on shawo/toads. what about the non-committal noobs who've parroted what everyone else has said? i've been trying to put together my own judgments thus far. inc my list just to clear the air

can i ask how long u've played mafia/how well daniel knows ur playstyle

ur posts have really surprised me with quality so i think daniel's commentary on expecting more feels empty because: (below)

I’ve been noticing that Aerious’s posts just come off as really cautious and unsure. i would expect her to be very bold and assertive in making claims/interactions but when she questions people she kinda just backs away when people don’t agree. i’m getting the vibe she’s playing to not be controversial and draw attention. but does she have TMI hmmmmm

ace, since you've unvoted glow, please explain what you were trying to get out of it

daniel noted aerious backing off reads that 'people don't seem to agree on', but when ace did that (shamelessly) all he did was ask what ace's intention was, rather than pointing it out with a frame that implies he thinks that is something scummy to do, as he did with aerious

also sorry if i missed something, what's TMI in this context
