Good morning, good afternoon and good evening.
This IC is late for the party.
However before I begin, I ask an imperative.
Everyone: What is your favorite subject in Mafia? Favorite notion to talk about?
What do you not understand about Forum Mafia? What about your least favorite notion?
Also, Persus is the better advisor than me but still: If any of you have general questions--don't be afraid to ask!
Hey Persus! I'll play the Snarky Cop and you play the Good Cop as our IC roles, you ok with that?
4maskEveryone: You are the jailkeeper, and the cop has claimed and been proven right. Do you protect them or no?
I assume this is by us lynching said person, yes?
My choice lies in the state of day-varying by the context given, yet my protection on the cop will depend on the judgement on two things:
> Situational judgement on how deep the game is going and the player disposition//cop attitude
and
> Whether or not said Cop has backing in said claim. For all I could know, this would be a perfect setup to get the one 'bussed' - yes, it may be a push to further the
group goal instead of an
individual goal - to get the latter to score for the team.
As for a general answer: I'm leaning on yes.
Why do you ask me a general question with no specific situation?
Mr CheeseAll right, let's find us some scum.
Such enthusiasm, T-800.
Tiruin: You're scum. Your scumbuddy happened to draw some suspicion due to some of their behavior, but not enough to get lynched. Would they be any particular type of person you'd try to kill in the night at this point? Why? How would you proceed for the next day? Why?
When 'at this point' means 'Day', I presume?
Well I'd target the investigative voices-those which treat the situation with a generalist attitude. Those of probing hints or curious motive--all due because I am to either Rolecop/kill them. For the next day, I will deliberate with said buddy-point out his flaws, probably give hints on what s/he's to do in that matter, and in the next day I shall prod them on the matter--moreso because its an aid to the person regardless of their role and it helps them learn instead of going all aggressive on them.
Why? My playstyle. I side with benevolence no matter what alignment I am on.
Did you ask that question to learn more about me?
Question to everyone: What would be your preferred role? Why?
No preference. Why? Because my playstyle doesn't depend on my role--whatever ability exists in said role is but a tool I can work with-sure, my playstyle could conform to how I use said tool, but it has no direct relation to why I have this role nor on why I'd like it.
For me, the role or the wincon doesn't define the player but their [the player's] principles.
Why do you ask?
Graknorke:Why hello there good chap! Extremely pleased to see you in this quadrant. What brings you to the Mafia board and why did you decide to join up here?
Nextly, how would you discern a scumtell from a towntell? Many people make mistakes, don't you agree?
Also, what is your opinion on metaknowledge?
Lastly, if a person is an IC-for this context only-does it have any...value to you? Will someone who is an IC be different from a player?
4maskTiruin: You are vanilla town, and two players are pushing you pretty hard on day one. One of those players dies N1. Do you believe that the last player is scum?
It all depends on the situation and their context of pushing me around. I mean, for all reasons in mind, I could see the discussion this way.
Player 1: I Vote 4mask, *pushes Tiruin*
Player 2: I also Vote 4mask, *also pushes Tiruin*
Tiruin: D: Y u push me? ;_;
*Night happens*
...
*Day happens; player 1 ded*
Tiruin: D: Player 2 is scum!
All jokingness aside, No. It depends on how they did so, and how I'd use the day to follow up on the other person pushing me, as well as on
what or
how they come about their logical basis. Pretty general for an answer, yes, but that is the crux of how I go--there are many situations to which I can respond differently, and there my answer lies.
Why should I believe the last player is scum?
LARDI believe your name is an acronym of sorts, yes?
Anyways
If the cop claimed and was proven right, I would not protect him. The mafia would assume I would and attack somebody else. But this is counterproductive, because the mafia see how we all respond and whoever they think is the jailkeeper, they now get to see how they respond. 4maskwolf, Why would you ask such and obviously scum benefiting question?

Note 2: 'The mafia would assume I would'?
Really now.
The Mafia knows there is a Jailkeeper, huh?
Everyone Ambiguous answers, are they scummy?
Like the one I give you now?
Shakerag...You aren't serious right? :S
You'll never know.
Give me your shovel. Now. >:I
