[Stuart444]

Hi there

 

[The Bear]

20 sign ups, need 7 more

 

[The Bear]

Looks like at the end we are getting a roster of 27 players and 12 replacements.

 

[Stuart444]

not bad.

 

[Stuart444]

Game looks like it will be an interesting one.

 

[weemadarthur]

Hi thread. I find this concept fascinating.

 

[Alexem]

Is it wrong that I'm secretly hoping CoolestSpot will get subbed in, just to see what kind of chaos Blarg, Kyan and Spot can unleash between each other?

Add Sorian to that pile

 

[The Bear]

I'm curious on how game will handle D1.

 

[The Bear]

here we go

 

[Stuart444]

 

[The Bear]

I've been wanting to experiment with voting for a leader for a while.

 

[Stuart444]

Blarg must be voted for leader!

 

[The Bear]

Blarg must be voted for leader!

It would be pretty funny if he won the vote!

 

[saenima]

Was that first blood?

 

[Stuart444]

Pity that we had one drop this early :(

 

[Stuart444]

Blarg's posts are a joy to read hahaha.

 

[saenima]

Indeed. It's getting heated. When does the first day end?

 

[Stuart444]

"it all seems to be born of people who tend towards confidence in thier play being unable to see this situation from the perspective of people who are not. "

Thank you! I was thinking the same thing when reading.

 

[Stuart444]

Indeed. It's getting heated. When does the first day end?

timer from the thread:

 

[Stuart444]

I have no idea who I scum read right now.

if this was a normal game, I'd say vote for Sophia but we'll see how things proceed from here.

 

[saenima]

timer from the thread:

Oh. I missed the giant countdown :/

 

[Stuart444]

Oh. I missed the giant countdown :/

Haha, np. I've seen some miss it in actual games before lol.

 

[The Bear]

welcome Sophia :)

 

[Stuart444]

Huh, that was unexpected from Sophia.

 

[Stuart444]

Also yay Fanto. Happy to see him in the game <3

 

[Android Sophia]

Huh, that was unexpected from Sophia.

I was having extreme difficulty organizing my thoughts... It's an issue I've been having a lot lately with Mafia.

I feel really bad about bowing out, because I had a SUPER AWESOME power.

Spoiler

Day vig shot

 

[RetroMG]

Sorian is right, Blarg is really easy to read once you get past his smoke and mirrors. It's subtle, but Scum!Blarg is easy for me to ferret out.

EDIT: I'm also wildly rooting for the scum team for this game, just cause I like the players on it.

Day vig shot

Aww man, would love to have seen you use it.

 

[Alexem]

Very glad I didn't sign up for this one - with everything that's been going on at work today, I've not even got to the end of the thread yet! (Being on front shifts and having to miss the day start wouldn't have helped, either...)

 

[Stuart444]

but I'm not sure if I want to scum-read that since I've seen that from Town members as well, especially early on... (Hi Stuart)

 

[Stuart444]

Also also, I'm going on a flight in an hours time which will last for about 14 hours, so yay for that.

Off topic but I'll be doing a flight in a few days time for almost about this time, maybe an hour or two less haha.

No wifi though so I won't be able to follow the game mid-flight :(

 

[Stuart444]

Finally caught up, man this is a busy D1 already.

 

[The Bear]

Well it's also a 27 player game

 

[The Bear]

That said, the game has already same amount of posts as KH when D2 ended.

 

[Stuart444]

And all mostly over who should be leader haha.

 

[Stuart444]

I feel like I've been where Chuggs is now early in my mafia career lol. He's doing a good job of not breaking under pressure like I've done as both town and scum haha.

 

[saenima]

I'm glad i decided to spectate a game first. This is nerve wracking and i'd be ready to lynch everybody.

 

[Stuart444]

And another drop out...

 

[Stuart444]

I'm glad i decided to spectate a game first. This is nerve wracking and i'd be ready to lynch everybody.

Haha yeah, it's a lot of fun though :D even if a bit tense/emotional at times.

 

[Stuart444]

I'm leaning Scum on Fran atm.

 

[Stuart444]

I feel like people are forgetting that Kawl in Marvel wasn't doing much and I'd say was actively playing against town. I only eased up on him when my partner, Ynnek (we were a two part cop, I check, Ynnek got the results of my check) confirmed that his was a green check a few days later.

Kawl did rather good near the end though. :D

 

[saenima]

I'm leaning Scum on Fran atm.

And Geno.

 

[Stuart444]

And Geno.

Geno's a hard one for me. He's so stubborn and hardly changes his mind after it's been made. Also gets super defensive. And this is when he's town haha.

 

[Android Sophia]

I've been having issues organizing my thoughts in a Mafia game lately. It sucks, because I get incoherent and messed up trying to keep track of all the details. This game in particular got real bad real fast, and I feel for my replacement because of this. I was trying to stay a little bit scummy too so I didn't get night killed.

It's understandable. I've never played Mafia but have a general idea of how the game works. Was not expecting such a cutthroat beginning though. But from reading some of the posts in there, i get the sense it's usually a bit more relaxed and this is a bit of an aggressive game so far.

I'll be honest, if i was in there, i'd have you pegged as scum. And i don't think your replacement will last long either :/ The knives are out.

 

[saenima]

I'm new here so the meta completely escapes me, apart from the tidbits in the thread. It's just that he seems to be resolved on his decision but didn't really defend it, i don't think.

Faddy is pretty much the only person reading me correctly. I don't know if he's town or scum himself, but he's 100% right on the money here.

https://www.resetera.com/posts/16642394

And yeah this game is a bit more stressful than average. As a rule of thumb the more players you have the more stressful it'll be.

I can see that. I assume that once a townie gets the stench on them, mafia peeps just go all in as welll.

Honestly it depends on the players in the game. Some games are more relaxed, others aren't. Depends on the game/mechanics and the people in it.

I did find myself nodding along with that post haha.

 

[Stuart444]

Defo feeling scum vibes from Fran.

Ketkat has also been rather quiet after the stuff early in the day. Feeling scummy on them as well.

 

[Stuart444]

All of this is inconsistent at best. Fran is scum. We should go after Fran. I'm not letting this go.

I'm proud of you Chuggs <3

 

[Alexem]

Ech, I still can't read on D1 for toffee. There's so much who-said-what going on between so many players, I just can't keep track of it all. I think that's part of why I prefer smaller games.

 

[Stuart444]

It's basically a giant OMGUS.

I'll just say, I do hate that making an argument/case against someone who happened to read you earlier gets some people to say it's an OMGUS post.

That said, I only tend to lean scum for saying that when it's the person being targeted saying it. (I had one game recently where I went at someone and they called it an OMGUS post). Other than that, it's NAI but does feel like a dismissal of the post. Though in this case, he did note Chuggs points which is good.

 

[The Bear]

At least all these replacements are happening in D1, and we have a pretty healthy replacement list going.

 

[Stuart444]

Now Kawl is out. Good thing there was a big replacement list eh?

 

[The Bear]

Fun fact: Phoenix Wright had one of the most op roles in existense (as much as Sorian likes to deny it).

 

[Stuart444]

Won't be posting much in here for the next few days o/ but will try and read this thread/the game when I have time.

 

[Pedro]

*laughing like a maniac*

 

[Android Sophia]

Oh my god I feel so bad for bowing out now, I never would have shot Stanley like that. lmao.

 

[Android Sophia]

I JUST SAW THE WATCHMEN REFERENCE TOO. OMG. XD

 

[Stantastic]

well im never playing a game with CeeCee again

 

[Stantastic]

im so fucking livid i turned sober

 

[Android Sophia]

For the record, I had no intention of using my shot on Day 1 unless I was elected leader. If, in the rare chance that happened, I'd claim I got two lynches.

 

[Stantastic]

most fucking town read player in the game for the fucking first time ever

 

[Stantastic]

a million godamn ways to play that and he picks the fucking stupidest one

 

[Stantastic]

"oh teehee im being pointlessly vague and then playing the victim like im not just being the stupidest little shit this community has ever seen AND THATS FUCKING SAYING SOMETHING"

 

[Stantastic]

im going to keep replying to him till someone tells him to shut the fuck up or you ban me

 

[Android Sophia]

im going to keep replying to him till someone tells him to shut the fuck up or you ban me

I'd suggest not doing that. :p

 

[Pedro]

Yeah, um, these circumstances are something else, but let's not use insults. I get it, though

I get it

 

[Stantastic]

I'd suggest not doing that. :p

why the fuck not, it could only ever be the seconds stupidest decision you have seen today.

 

[Android Sophia]

why the fuck not, it could only ever be the seconds stupidest decision you have seen today.

I know you're mad at CeeCee, and that was a REALLY dirty play by him, but that doesn't mean it's a good idea to continuously swear at them when the game runner is a moderator.

Just chill and step away for a bit. >_<;

 

[Stantastic]

im running out of shit to mix it with i think imma just be havin straight wisky soon

 

[Stantastic]

i was supposed to be playing DnD tonight

 

[Android Sophia]

I know Ceecee's trying to defend his play now, but I would have thought striking a deal with the town leader to kill two people (vig shot + leader lynch) would have been a better idea.

 

[Stantastic]

but then Dan gets caught up at work so we reshedule to Saturday

 

[Stantastic]

I know Ceecee's trying to defend his play now, but I would have thought striking a deal with the town leader to kill two people (vig shot + leader lynch) would have been a better idea.

i think literally any single course of action besides what he did would have been a better idea

 

[Stantastic]

fucking shooting himself with the shot would have been better!

 

[Stantastic]

could have just been narrating my friends through a Nature Gods hunting festival

 

[Stantastic]

wouldnt have even seen this dumb shit

 

[Stantastic]

So the neat bit is how the whole fistival thing has been fucked up by this freenzy the local and rsther colorful wildlife have been whipped up into, making the festival all kinda dangerous

 

[Stantastic]

their blood is literally boiling, can hurt the players if they making particularily reckless melee attacks

 

[Stantastic]

even some nature spirits and fey shit thrown in too

 

[Stantastic]

ever seen a dryad bleed boiling blood?
my players sure have

 

[Pedro]

now imagine if grizz wasn't online, and after that menacing line

I did try and warn you. Don't blame me for what happens now.

nothing happens, and stan lynches ceecee cause he thinks he's bullshitting

 

[Stantastic]

man that encounter was rad, the dryad charmed Dan (resident anime werwolf devilboi) into attack an npc who tagged along, nat fucking 20'd and basically ripped the poor boys thoat out

 

[Stantastic]

play in one a my DnD games and you playing for keeps lemme tells ya

 

[Pedro]

ever seen a dryad bleed boiling blood?
my players sure have

that's very fucked up, dryads should do better than that

 

[Stantastic]

whole party nearly died in that encounter

 

[Stantastic]

literally second fight of the campaign too

 

[Stantastic]

bet they thought i was gonna have them fighting some cave full of goblins or something

 

[Stantastic]

nah sun, yous getting a courrupted celebration of the ferocity of nature

 

[Stantastic]

hey yall wanna be in a DnD game run by me once the current Mafiera one ends?

if it does even end, i dont really know how thats gonna go

 

[Stantastic]

im still pretty new to DMing but i think im pretty good at it

if nothing else i tend to come up with some pretty cool shit

 

[Pedro]

hey yall wanna be in a DnD game run by me once the current Mafiera one ends?

if it does even end, i dont really know how thats gonna go

i love your storytelling, so yes

 

[Stantastic]
