Hurry! Get inside, everyone!
You'll be safe to spectate the game in here :)
A geno, hawthorne and maolfunction scum team would be too much, not sure if I could cope with that.*looks at player list*
Geno’s pretty sus
The Transistor gang is too strongA geno, hawthorne and maolfunction scum team would be too much, not sure if I could cope with that.
Yup! Excited to see how it goes for them.Feels like the most new players we've seen pop up at once in awhile. Five total if you count the one that showed up late I believe.
I’ve only seen streams of other people playing it but it definitely looks like a good time. I actually heard about it from a friend I had described Mafia to and he sent me a video saying that it sounded like that game i told him about lolI wonder if Among Us might be getting more people interested in mafia? Could be a coincidence, but whatever the reason it's good to see so many new faces.
I am so pumped for this game to start lol.
Lol they should expect nothing less from me!That intro flavor went harder than I expected

A small price to pay for the quality of his postsI'm upset that All Things Purple's avatar is not.
Scum could totally bait me into breadcrumbing my posting multiple poems, I wouldn't be able to help myself.Im looking for breadcrumbs in all of this poetry o.o
Welp, looks like I'm rooting for malus this game.Malus said:This is my favorite poem so far.
The choice of using short quick words with lots of plosive consonants for the first line accentuates the quickness of the discussion and gives us the feel that a lot is happening. The short "maybe" in the second line, separated by an additional line break, feels like it's thrown into an empty room, relativizing the busyness of the first line. This feeling is strengthened in the third line with another even calmer word, showing us that there is actually a lot of free space. It almost feels melancholic in combination with the second line and the additional line breaks. Finally in the last line we realize that the supposed busyness of the first line is a mere illusion, perfectly captured by using more nasal consonants to give us the impression of calmness, while still maintaining a certain level of activity with the shortened "though".
To me this poem perfectly captures the ebb and flow of a typical mafia game with phases of lots of discussions with breaks of calmness, represented by the juxtaposition of a busy first line and the spacious second and third line, reminding us, that in the end the only thing that remains are memories.
LOLi'm waking up

I think that’s more than malus posted in total during Risk hahaWelp, looks like I'm rooting for malus this game.

lolmalus said:Day 1 is always a bit silly. It generally goes like this:
jokes -> serious reaction to joke that was misinterpreted as a serious argument -> votes in reaction to serious reactions -> Turmoil gets lunched
And I'd have lost an avatar bet again :PThings would be different if I was playing, I'll tell you that. I'D be getting the chop on D1!
Friends turned foes, you hate to see itGeno v Gorlak Day 1
GG
malus is great (even though I try to kill him all the time)Welp, looks like I'm rooting for malus this game.
oh this is still the readable stage of the gameLeo said:I find weird that people are voting out of nowhere, but apparently it's just jokes? Day 1 is just confusing for me so far. Everybody is acting weird, I don't know what is normal-weird and weird-weird lol
AllThingsPurple said:1) I have zero experience playing mafia/werewolf. I've heard of it plenty, and had vague ideas of what it was all about but this is my first time playing it.
2) Favourite horror film is The Thing which is probably why I've always been curious about playing.
3) Pancakes, though not much of a breakfast person in general.
YEAH YOU'RE NOT EVEN PURPLEAllThingsPurple said:one must remember that I have no idea what I'm doing..
You are surely capable of seeing that I goaded Geno into that discussion to get a read on him. And... now you're just doing the same with me, ok.
Chugg what have you donei didn't scare my newbie off i promise
I am excited that, after we have expanded the stable of folks with the variations on avatars, we are now added many more people who will create custom gifs.
Really, we're just here for the image manipulations.
Somewhere Sorian just flinchedI might just be traumatized by the last game I played, but I'm almost more suspicious of a high post count than a low one.
Just wait, what's a neutral ? I thought it was just town and mafia?
dammit Chuggsi didn't scare my newbie off i promise
I dont think its necessary rn. I’d love for the mentors to mass claim (lol) their mentees after the game or in here but i think it sometimes disrupts the game when people mention “i think its worthy of note that so and so is mentoring so and so,” which ive seen happen in past gameswill who is mentoring who be made public? In the past it used to be in the player list but now that feeds the vote tool
I am mentoring AllThingsPurple, and if anyone says anything mean about him I will personally kick their ass lol.will who is mentoring who be made public? In the past it used to be in the player list but now that feeds the vote tool

I feel like I remember at least one person bringing up that Sophia was my mentor in GoT, yeah, so there is some weird meta stuff that people will try to engage in there. I feel like it doesn't quite get encompassed in the "don't talk about player activity outside the game thread" rule, but it feels similar enough that it might be worth bringing up in a review thread yeah.oh yeah, that's annoying and unfair when it happens. Probably it should be mentioned in a rule.

let's see what our great game runner has in for us
Good idea. Would you get rid of the post minimum you think or just decrease it? The one concern about making the day shorter that I was pondering is the time zone differences and how maybe a few players wont get as much play time on D1 as others mightI was thinking in my next game, I would try some new shit and make d1 shorter.
Return Fanto to her former glory!!I'll tell you guys one thing, the next game I play in, I'm gunna bust some heads on D1.
I'm sick of this new meta around here where we putz about on D1 and refuse to give any confident reads and constantly talk about how it's D1 and we have nothing to go off of and no one knows anything and everyone's reads are bad and everyone is just being NAI.
Nah, fuck that!
I am going to give the sickest D1 reads in the world in my next game! I am going to confidently declare that people are either Town or Scum and vote accordingly. I am going to force everyone to give me reads on every player in the game. I will make them publicly agree or disagree with my reads at the very least. I will put the sickest meta reads on people, I will be outraged over the most inconsequential shit, I will force people to actually play this fucking game on D1 for the first time in a year, mark my words!
The old Fanto is back, baby!
I don't think I'd lower the post cap, but I'd probably instead make it a weird phase, like 36 hours instead of 48 or something, to account for time zones. Then then only hassle is for me.Good idea.

I'd be down for an experiment like this. It would be interesting to see if such a short day phase would actually encourage people to post more, regardless of the 5 post minimumWe could go wild and do 12 hours with a 5 post minimum! But that would be rough for some. We'd have to say it at signups.
I'll see if I can cook something up then. I like to experiment with formats to break meta and I think this would be fun.I'd be down for an experiment like this. It would be interesting to see if such a short day phase would actually encourage people to post more, regardless of the 5 post minimum
Evidence?AllThingsPurple said:Just out of interest, do we all have to vote or can you abstain if you don't think there is any real evidence?
Maolfunction said:Vote: Funky Dude Sparks
Just guaranteeing this flip.
Yeah, i’ll be surprised if thats not a talking point next day phase.
looks like Sparks waited 15mins before EOD to not Role-claim Expectations subvertedWatch Sparks pull a me and wait til 15 minutes before EOD to claim
Im not sure if a meta changed but from a game runners point of view, i can tell you that Mafia played that day smart.I'm so bewildered at the events of day one.
Bewildered and confused at how a omgus vote from pancakes herself lead to my lunch. Considered me tilted at how a bunch of fluff stuff eventually lead to a majority of town voting for my lunch. My god it was a vote to do something and it backfired so hard I got lunched on day one.
Somehow the meta shifted to something I had never seen before. I'm tilted at the moment. It was a prod vote initially but I kept not only to make pancakes do literally anything worth noting. I kept it there as retaliation for scum speculation
Why did meta change on low activity user policy lunches?
