Excitement time!

blarg, nin and sparks in the same game is going to be something.

And the return of Terraforce vs Geno.

And Turmoil. This is too much.

I feel like this is going to be a strange game. My prediction is that if Chuggernaut is town he is going to be super obvious right away. I don't thinkk he can contain himself in the midst of so much potential nonsense.

It's definitely an interesting roster, it's neat that I can't see any player who will immediately fill the 'town leader' position.

Very small spec chat right now, looking forward to players joining us >:)
 
Sorry to see you join us so soon turmoil, sucks that it was between you and the two newest players.

I guess we wil learn this fairly soon so, is Jman actually the doctor or just fakeclaiming?

Unlucky Turnoil. I though chuggs giving you the big town shield would be enough along with Terraforce not scum reading you either.

I hope someone opens day 2 counterclaiming Jman lol

LOL. Not gonna happen because there isn't a doctor lol

I don't think he is going to get away with the doctor claim though.

So there are two scenarios:
They have a strongkill: kill terra
They don't: if they believe there is a real doctor(who would target Terra, naturally), kill who? Launch maybe, or Chuggs

hey if a scum player fakeclaimed on d1 at the expense of a vanilla it's a win in my book
 
I've already used up my one death pun on the PM I sent so instead I'll just say congrats TP on being the N1 kill

Imperial Corps Commander Who Cheers the Army
He must be scum, and if he isn't, he must be lunched regardless for the game to advance

Yeah they killed TP so they can say "they feared a doctor protection"

Very good post from Blarg.

Town cannot lose a day to a bad gambit. Town have powers, use them on Jman. No one is a better cop check. And it re-focuses the day onto other people. Even if jman is scum he is not the only scum. Put him on the back burner and start looking into other people.
 
I probably wont be able to follow the game but i was glad to be a part of it, Aeleus!

I just hope Town considers that i might have been an ideal kill because im the only one that decided to call out + even tag very specific people and that all of those people are probably Town and scum is using that as an advantage to bait Town into thinking that scum is in that pile of people. Plus, Jman is the only one to have voted me so thats another mark against him and a possible mislynch.

Have a great game everyone. Go Town!

I'm not caught up but they won't lunch the doctor fakeclaim? That's bad play

I wish blarg is scum just to read the reaction to this in scum chat

Confirmed Town
Ok, I'm here now because I had things to say and no one to say them to, so now you're gunna hear about it!!!



First of all, what the fuck were they thinking??? It should be illegal to vote for Turmoil on D1 at this point, what the fuck.

Secondly, Jman, dear god my dude, do not do that!!! I sincerely hope you are Scum, because wow.

A fucking tie!?!? Are you kidding me?? Dear lord, Town, you cannot let that happen! That is so bad. As others said, just use a power on Jman, why even vote there yet.

And LP as the other choice for yesterday? Are we for real? He made 20 posts!!! There's no way in hell he's Scum!!

Chugg is Town, or else he's finally snapped after rolling Scum for the 128,918th time in a row and is taking on a new tone, but I'm pretty sure he's just Town this time.

Who else is in this game?

Oh, that's right:
The Four Horsemen of Mafiera Shenanigans.

Funky, Blarg, Nin, Salva.
Good fucking luck with that, Town.

One of those 4 is probably Scum. Toss in Hedin, Geno, and Kopite and that's probably the team.
 

Fanto

Confirmed Town
Maybe Stan is Scum though? If I was playing I'd do an ISO on him and look for anything that seems out of the ordinary. I can't remember what my Scum tell was for him the one game where I was actually right about him, but I'd go looking for that again.
 

Fanto

Confirmed Town
Is Maol Scum? I'm not sure, I'd have to go read his posts more closely. I basically just skim through any big posts when I'm not actually playing, and he makes a lot of wordy posts that I just go "nah" to when reading lol.
 

Fanto

Confirmed Town
Having just seen Launch's Scum game, I'm not sure if he's Scum again this time. He was kind of all about the "let Town eat themselves" life as Scum, just kind of pushing in directions that others were already agreeable on. I'm not sure if he's been doing that again this time or not though, I feel like I remember him giving more original thoughts here than he had in Mario Mafia from what I remember reading.
 

Fanto

Confirmed Town
That concludes my thoughts for now, I suppose.

I'm guessing the Night Kill goes to Chugg or Terra.

Imperial Corps Commander Who Cheers the Army
I don't think town can recover without a red check or a vigilante hitting scum. They are going into day 3 blind.

A tie is even worse than lunching a potential Town!Jman. Though Jman doesn't strike me as a player that does weird gambits as Town, but one that would play up his new player status as Scum.

Jman had a bit of a gambit with Nier that completely allowed us to counter his move and win the game.

I barely trust these reads at all, so I assume most of the Scum team is likely in my Town.
 
Still irritated that this role ended up being in another game after this design was approved, thought it was a neat little twist on the role.

Very interesting role! I had to read the PM a couple times to understand, but I like that a lot. That is a cool twist on the normal Bodyguard.

So this will just be D2 all over again, they should had turboed and they should turbo today too

Is this role the single reason the game is "normal/unusual" or is there some more?

I'm sort of disappointed in what Blarg did with his role.

Not that it is a misplay or even bad. It is just so standard and safe. And unblarg like...

And especially after the tie I think he should have tried to find get something on that. (It might not have been possible)
Blarg is town, if you couldn't tell. Chuggs is town, if you couldn't tell. Stuart is also town and I think scum will be targeting him for a night kill asap

Blarg said

scum team what's next for Tonight are you just gonna go for Terra again, oh or maybe Chuggs now? Or Stu, or me

The four of us are a better scum team than you'll ever be and we're Town

How does it feel to be faced against a Town-scum team in your own game

It's okay we can wait

This is an interesting situation. And with so many confirmed it is time for them to actively collude. They need to control the votes. The 4 of them should form a block and pick who they think is scum. Not necessarily to turbo through the game but to actively put people under pressure. Also gives them the authority to make a better lunch than Lone_Prodigy.

Also that is the next 4 night kills sorted so if you are town and not confirmed it is now on you to try and solve the game because the only way out is to be mislynched.

My actions:

I was targeted directly so I didn't save anyone.

N1 - protected jman under protest. I had doubts that there would be my role & a doc but wanted to be safe. Was going to do Launch before all of the jman stuff happened.
N2 - protected Terra. Meant to crumb it before EOD but my daughter's wanted to play board games instead so they won.
 

Fanto

Confirmed Town
Yeah, I actually love that post from Blarg because he's basically calling for a good old fashioned Town Circle lol. His latest one breaking down that there are 4 Mafia in those 12 players is good too.

Get to solving, Townsfolk.
 

Fanto

Confirmed Town
Geno's frustration with Sparks feels kind of Townie to me tbh. Like I totally get where he's coming from with the line about people not caring about the game, that stuff can get me really frustrated as a Townie too, and I'm not sure if Scum would fake an outburst like that when they are already heavily suspected and it would be doing nothing but putting a bigger target on their own back.
 

Fanto

Confirmed Town
Why is LP Scum here exactly? I say he's Town, and I refuse to explain it, because no one is explaining why he's Scum!

Getting bad vibes from Salva.

Kopite is basically a ghost.

I don't trust Launchpad.

Stan seems fine.
 

Fanto

Confirmed Town
These long-winded/meandering posts about game mechanics/strategies from Salva are right out of his Scum playbook btw.
 

Fanto

It's just pointless busywork and obfuscation.

Him ignoring the elephant in the room, LP, and focusing on agreeing with Geno about Sparks is also out of his Scum playbook.

I think this should be my new playstyle if I ever play in a game again.

I'm just gunna tell it like it is, and if people don't wanna hear it, then that's their prerogative lol.

Oh no, but wait, that's how Sorian plays! Am I becoming as jaded as Sorian!?

To quote one of his PMs to me
"So if I wasn't a Detective I would expect the Detective to finalise the jman fiasco with a quick clearance there, or else LP.

But I am a Detective so let's check out the replaced player: "

Launch scum for sure. I haven't followed closely but there was a moment when I was like I WILL DIE ON THIS HILL

If there is one thing more annoying than lazy town it is lazy town that won't listen to confirmed town.

Just lazily throwing votes on sparks is dumb. Let the confirmed players take control if you aren't going to contribute an actual argument. I can feel Chuggs pain oozing through my screen.

Worse is that the 4 confirmeds are voting on 3 different people without much collaboration. Chuggs seems to be trying to rally onto Geno but there isn't much movement there. there is plenty of time left in the day but people seem thirsty for turbo.

mrHedin, it was a really bad night for town

So if Geno is being truthful it kind of fits this. Losing my role hurts but I wouldn't call it a really bad night, losing me at the same time I was green checked makes it a little more painful. I do kind of wonder what else happened though as that still doesn't add up to a "really bad night", if Blarg is being truthful did he get a false positive then?
 

Fanto

Confirmed Town
If both Blarg and Geno are telling the truth, I could see there being a Godfather or something on Scum for balance reasons.

Also, in regards to the confusion about a "will" in there right now, the way we normally do "wills" is different than how it works in other Mafia/Werewolf setups. In Town of Salem, for example, your will can include anything you want in it. People usually use it to mark down their targets and results for each night, but it can also include a read list, or anything else you would want to say to Town. The way we do it here is usually a non-game-related message or gif as a final goodbye, I don't think we allow any game-related info to be left in a will normally.
 

Fanto

Confirmed Town
That's part of why I felt weird about allowing Natiko to share his results with Verelios in the Neighbor Chat in Super Mario Mafia before he officially "died" at day start, since that was kind of like him leaving a real will to Vere with his final target and results, which would normally (and technically should have) gone to the grave with him.

Game is getting feisty.

On fake claims: You get a fake name if flavor names are directly related to alignment. You get a fake role in role madness if it is unreasonable for your role to be town.

In a normal game with a generic vanilla role, it is possible for scum to only have 1 or 2 fake names in a pool to stop them all being able to claim PR. However in more than a few games scum have slipped by claiming their fake name and vanilla town. So all scum getting a fake claim can be a blessing and a curse.

Shoot, my fake name in Nier almost caught me because the name didn't really fit the role at all (I think it would have fit if I didn't find nin as the miller and red checked him). Jman seems really hung up on it though, with that and his outrage it feels like he's just trying to avoid discussing anything of substance.
 

Faddy

And sometimes a fake name does nothing for you. Imagine claiming Doctor with a fake name when the real doctor has the name Dr. Monkey.

But sometimes you do want to fake claim as mafia even if you are 90% sure you are going to get caught.

I gave them all fake flavour claims but no roles and I can confirm one was planning on claiming a name with vanilla before the rest of the scum team reminded them.
