Phantom: Would you rather have Jim or Dariush as your scum partner?
Jim, I know how he plays better than I do Dariush and from what I have observed his play style is more similar to mine than Dariush's.
Phantom: I don't believe I've played a game with you before. Do you have any prior experience?
Who would you hammer first, a vigilante claimant who's been the only person killing for two days in a row, or a miller who claimed after a cop claimed a scum result on him?
This is the first full game I've played, (as Jim stated) zombie urist and I won the last BM as mafia.
As for who I would hammer first. It depends, if the kills had been innocent and the miller looked town then I would definitely lynch the vig. If the miller looked scummy I would carefully look over the game and decide which one looked scummier, as it's very easy for a SK to pretend to be a vigilante, or they might not even have a NK, and it's just the scum killing people and he's claiming credit trying to make himself look townie.
Phantom of the Library Which two players do you fear most as a scumteam and why?
Probably Jim and some person that I've never seen before such as penngo or urist mcuselessnoble. Jim, for similar reasons as above and because I know of his reputation and have seen several games in which he has played, and he certainly is very dangerous when playing as scum. The others simply because I have absolutely no clue how they might act or what their skills are at mafia. Most people here I've at least read a part of a game which they were in, but there are a few who I have absolutely no reading on.
Keep in mind though that this is all meta, though and I don't actually intend to use it in-game, as it seems like the easy path to WIFOM.
Phantom of the Library, how good are you feeling coming out of your first mafia win? (On this board anyway.)
It was the very first game of mafia I've ever played.
I feel pretty good and fairly confident in my skills, but I'm still wary, I feel a bit like a very small fish who managed to outsmart a couple big ones and eat a couple of other small fish. I'm in the same pond still and I know it a little better, but I'm still new to the waters and there's no guarantee that I can outsmart the big fish again.
Andrew425:Why did you come out immediately saying that you were townie and then accuse penngo of being scum before
anyone had even posted?
For now I'm putting the first part down as attempted humor, but still...
Urist McUselessNoble:What is your past mafia experience? How do you plan on approaching this game?
I forgot about something that I have to do this week and I will be busy and may not be able to post every day until sometime next week. I will try to get in at least one post a day, but I apologize ahead of time if I cannot.
