Welcome to the forum

[roo]

Thanks! Happy to be here.

Good good... Fresh blood!

I'll sign up for replacement but do note I'm more of an IC than a newbie.

{Alright, for those of you who are brand new: welcome to Mafia. I an IC, which means I'm here to try and teach you the basics. Whenever I type with "{ }" around my text, it means that I am speaking as an IC. I will not lie or mislead you while using these. In fact, I will do so even if it hurts me as a player. Keep in mind that I am still a player and may even be scum, so trust only what I type out as an IC, not as a player.}

{There is also a scum IC. The scum IC interacts only with the scum team via the scumchat, to teach them the ways of scum. If you are town, you don't need to worry yourself with the scum IC.}

{Now, before anything else: go to the OP and read up on the terminology and scumhunting methods if you haven't. This is important. Assuming you already have, a few general tips: town know they are town and as such should not concern themselves with proving they are town. Instead focus on finding scum. Lying is one of the hugest scumtells there is, avoid lying when you can, regardless of alignment. Furthermore, quote what you are responding to or talking about. It is ok to trim down quotes to remove stuff that is not relevant to whatever you are saying. It is not ok to modify the contents of the quote itself. If you are on a phone/tablet and can't quote easily, look to the post number at the top of every post, and include that instead. Finally, do not edit your posts. Ever. If you end up forgetting to include something, screw up a quote, spoiler or whatever, just do a double post.}

{With that out of the way, the game starts in the RVS (random vote stage). The point of RVS is to get people talking and the game rolling. Usually you ask questions to some (or all, if you want) players and choose one to do a random vote on). The point of the random vote is that it puts pressure on that player, it is something that cannot be easily ignored. The game will eventually drift out of RVS, usually when people have some leads to follow.}

{But, most importantly, play to win. Don't be afraid to make mistakes, find scum or frame the town, as your alignment goes. And try to have fun.}

Cryxis: What is TheDarkStar advising you to do in RVS? {This is a trick question, which you will see a lot. Town use it to get scum to slip. Scum use it to frame town. It may appear as "are you scum?" or "are you nervous that I am voting you, scumbucket?" or just a plain vote with no comment or question. In all cases but the last, the only correct answer is saying you are not scum. In the last, just show that you are not concerned. Either way, you must answer, which is why I'd like you to answer even with this whole text here.}

OSG: How do you expect a game with four completely new players to go?

roo: What do you expect out of a mafia game? What do you know of the game?

A bit chaotic, but hopefully better then the last game.

[hector13]

The RNG choose you, Deathsword. How many days do you think it'll take you and your scumbuddy to win?

I'm town, but I'm betting on defeating scum by D3.

[hector13]

I like your attitude! Unvote. Lets go for that perfect game, people!

[origamiscienceguy]

I hate RVS.

Hector, now that we know how good of a scum player you are, how will your playstyle change?
