How many games have you played in, again? Sorry I forgot.

Yeah, I think that Jim is the best judge of that, I think he should just keep a list of accepted ICs somewhere so that BM mods know who to badger about getting a game running.
As many as you have, my dead cheese, if memory serves.  Did you play any games before the first BM we played together?  Because I have only finished three games:
BM: technical win as town cop
GBU: lolz win as scum cop
BM: Goddamn Jailkeepers as scum cop.

Yup, same amount as you.

BM: win as vanilla town after getting 4mask lynched by mistake
GBU: lolz win as scum cop's assistant
BM: Won as Jailkeep.

I've played a few:

Paranormal 23: My first game was scum, so I did not do well.
Limerick Mafia: Scum again; we were close to winning, at least. I also did a bit better.
Worse Things Happen At Sea: First time as town, so I did really badly until it was way too late; I realized how to play town decently well, but was mislynched twice and the town lost.
Smstr W/ Love: In progress; I'm dead, though.
GBU: I'm that guy who got nightkilled night one. Also, scum won.
BM 45: Led the winning lynch; won as town.
The Greatest Battle Of Orbfalls: Still going, but I'm alive.
CYOM: In progress, and I'm alive.

So I've finished 4, I'm dead in one active game, and I'm playing in two others.

BM: Goddamn Jailkeepers as scum cop.
To be frank, it was how you went along with it that sealed it. :P

But before that? As clean as...a clean trail.

What are the qualifications for being an IC, anyway?
that's an interesting question.

It is whatever Jim says, apparently, because he's been the one to make the executive decisions recently.

Ultimately, it's more a question of who the moderator can wrangle into the position rather than anything I have to say about it, because it's not like BMs have experienced players lining up to be ICs.

I did make a list of IC requirements in BMXLV, which are more guidelines than strict rules.

I understood nothing, contributed nothing, but still got to win, so good game everybody else.

I don't really know who's qualified other than the blatantly obvious ones like NQT, Tiruin, Nerjin, Jim, Persus, etc.
Its all subjective. Just like when mods decide who's qualified to play in each game.

Yeah alright. For the community. I feel flattered you guys thought of asking me. Though I think another speed beginners game should be run next because those are superior in every respect. IC IN.

Huh.  Every time I get asked to IC and consider doing so someone always snipes the last spot >_>

Ahh well.  Let me know if someone changes their mind.

The sun rises on a small clearing in the forest. A small creek runs nearby, bringing down cold water from the mountains.

The group has rested here for the night. One by one they awaken as the sunlight envelops them.

Still tired, the unicorns wonder, "how is it possible the hunters are still on their trail?" Unicorns are fast and stealthy. The hunters should have given up long ago. No one wants to believe it, but they must acknowledge the possibility. Two horses with fake horns must have infiltrated their ranks and have been leaving clues to the hunters!

No more running! Find the unhorned ones! Kill them and escape into the woodlands!

Day 1 will end Monday, March 31st at 9 PM PST.

NQT: Two questions:
1. Do you have a more efficient scumhunting algorithm now, and
2. Are you going to tell the scum all about it like in GBU?

I'm an IC Unicorn which means I'll offer advice from time to time.

Wolf
NQT: Two questions:
1. Do you have a more efficient scumhunting algorithm now, and
2. Are you going to tell the scum all about it like in GBU?
1. Possibly. 2. No. Do you see yourself employing analytical techniques?

Whitius You're new right? Ask everyone a question.

NAV You're scum aren't you?

Pufferfish What's your read on the meta of all the other players?

TheDarkStar Which is the better role for town: jailer or cop?

MastahCheese How do you intend to win this game?

MyOwnWorstEnemy What's the most important thing you've learned recently in mafia?

Unvote, you answered correctly.

Now, everyone:

Tiruin: Do you think that the semi-fixed nature of the setup encourages a specific playstyle?

Whitius Opus: Hi there.  What made you want to join another mafia game?

NAV: Hello.  Have you played mafia before?

Pufferfish: I will cook you FOR dinner, you scumbiscuit.  What do you think of my vote on you?

TDS: Is this the game you win as scum?  How's it going in the scumchat?

CheeseMeister: Do you mind if I call you that?  What is the optimal jailkeeper strategy, in your opinion.  The optimal cop strategy?

MOWE: If your partner messed up as scum, would you bus them or just stay back and watch?

NQT: What analytical techniques?  I'm always scum, remember.  I haven't had a chance to develop them  :P

Well, your's is progressing nicely, I just felt the learning curve a bit, and decided to try the beginners mafia. I've only been in yours, and it's pretty challenging keeping track of all the different traits and slips a person makes. I think that getting more experience first, before attempting a game with veterans, is a more viable option.

Sure thing. I'm new, but know the basics of mafia, so I understand the D1 procedures. Kinda.

Tiruin: On a level of 1-10, how hard are going to try and get a scum win?

NAV: What do you consider a scumtell? Why do you consider it so?

pufferfish: Do you feel threatened when you're random voted?

4maskwolf: What made you want to join this game, while mod'ing one of your own?

MOWE: What are your qualifications for a definite vote on someone, rather than a random vote? As in, what makes you really sure someone is scum?

More later. I think.
