Typically it's just "these are what mafia is" "don't act like an idiot" etc etc.
NYAHAHAHA!

Now, from the top:
1. What games are going to be hosted soon.
2. New player stuff, you can skip this.
3. Mafia setup discussion and review, for mods.
4. I'll get back to this one.
5. Ah, lurkertracker. The thing that you zap a thread with and it tells you who's lurking, no searching needed. Also counts votes. Mafia Tools and Utilities.
6. New player stuff.

I'd recommend you take a look at 4. Notable Games Archive. Start by reading the BYOR section. It's funny.

 But what if I am lazy in terms of reading extra effects ! I tend to phase in and out of threads of games I'm in while doing work or other things... Having to read other threads outside the game thread means I'll be distracted !

@Tea

 What's your 3 strongest leans/reads at this point of the game, what one thing do you consider the most important factor this far?

Note: I'm making a bit of a rule change. I am unable to process Day actions as they happen. As such, I will have any Day action submitted be processed when vote counts happen (Approximately 8 PM Central.) As such, there will be NO Day actions at the end of the Day. I will warn you when you are reaching the end of the allowable Day action time.

Additionally, I am watching the thread as closely as I can. You are all hilarious when you try to guess what I'm thinking. But, if I miss a question, feel free to PM me about it.

Now, go back to what you're doing. And be more Anime Cowgirl-esque, doll. You earned this.

You aren't expected to spend one hundred percent of your time on a single mafia game. And you don't have to read all of the BYORs. Start with one, preferably a shorter one with more of the players that are here. It's not mandatory, but it might be helpful to understand how webadict BYORs generally work.

FoU has some twisted role ideas. Screw second-guessing this mechanical garbage spaghetti, I'm basing everything on reads and visible daytime behaviour.

Would you like to play a game of Mafia? The subforum is always open to new players.

Ah yes this is typical of Shakerag. He's town guys, no worries. I definitely think you should read #4, it's funny as shit, but yes he is clearly shitposting. [1] Fallacy why are you shit posting?
[1]: Am I? Is that typical of the entirety or majority of my behavior? But if you want to know why I asked Shakerag those questions... I was probing for reactions. Like usual. Shakerag isn't giving me much to work with, though.

And I finally made it through the stuff addressed to me. Whew.
Well, it might help to give him something that isn't tailored to his BS.

Sorry for not posting, my siblings need the computer for their finals (my finals are all done, but theirs are not) I promise to read through and post a reads list of everybody tomorrow, with a couple in-depth reads if I notice anything strange.

Return question:
Given your current alignment, would you rather be a different one? Why?
I did roll my preferred alignment. I think the only reason I would want to be a different alignment is that I feel like I would have more information about wtf I actually need to do to win.

@Tea

 What's your 3 strongest leans/reads at this point of the game, what one thing do you consider the most important factor this far?
Lenglon seems town/motivated to think critically + work with others for this post.

It will absolutely be known if this changes but TheDarkStar has better tone than I've ever seen from him + isn't being disgustingly agenda-y so maybe he's not mafia for once.

FallacyofUrist is, uh. Thinking about the game like someone who expects to be around for a long time, for whatever reason? Which is probably a better tell in a standard game than here but I don't quite follow why he's directing effort toward the things that he's directing them to, or why he thinks he's getting ~nothing out of Shakerag but isn't ranking Shakerag in a similar category to doll/TheBiggerFIsh. He's doing lots of theory talk about scumtells that seem fairly divorced from what people are doing in the game itself, lots of ~I'll look into getting actual reads later~, lots of Here's What I'll Care About on Day 2. I didn't like his reaction to being asked why he was shitposting - sounded to me like ~I'm Self-Aware of What I Usually Do And I'm Telling You About It Even Though It Wasn't Asked Of Me~ (x).

Nah, other than generally wanting to post more / second-guess myself less.

Do you think my reads are bad?

 One is a meta so probably can't feel one way or the other about that, do you read them in a Vaimes sort of way?

 I didn't see the thing you did about Lenglon to be fair.

 And I think I need to be in a better(read more awake) state to see whether I can follow your thoughts on Fallacy.

 It was all on people I generally had no idea about, so that's interesting at least.

At least look at the roleflips to get a sense of the kinds of roles there are typically in these games. Note that there can be different power levels, of course.


I'm now basically waiting on Jack.

Please do. Can you specifically also say what you think of the general direction that players are pushing? I'm interested in how your thoughts compare to mine.
Please do.

Woah, I missed this. Plenty of things I don't like, Hector:

Pozzai

...
Do you think it's wise to be telegraphing the things you find scummy so early?
Hold on, are you saying that we shouldn't be calling out scum play?

Quote
Persus13

I don't like you.

Also, this game has hammers, so please be careful about bandwagons on people.

This is a part of why.

The rest of your post seems rather... wooden, like it's there just to be there.

Mostly I don't like you.
"A woody sort of sound... Gaud.... GAUD..."
Jokes aside...
- Why don't you like the post against wagons? Granted it's 9 to hammer, so it's premise is incorrect, but why else?
- You don't like the person > You think they're scummy? In terms of what you just said. How is that particularly relevant?
- Is it because you're fighting over number 13? :p
- Can you explain why you say there's no substance in his post?

Blah blah competent player don't want to clog this up with RVS is that a good idea kashira nano desu ne
Is what I'm doing a good idea at all, do you think?

I like this question. I really like this question. If I could make a question human and have s-

*cough*

I mean, sure, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt. You're a competent player too.

I might come back to this later. Then again, I might not.

Unless you want me to not engage in a tit-for-tat "who can be more ambiguous" thing... while entertaining, I s'pose I'll go with my gut and not do that.

Sure, I like what you're doing. You're being typically verbose though, which I'm not a fan of, and you're taking up a great deal of attention early doors, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. The tone of your D1 posts has changed again though; uncertain if that's intentional or you're just having fun with what you have right now.

This isn't something I can really give an accurate thought on, given I need to see how you conclude it. Presently: so far, so good.
So, what do you think about doll now, after not much more had been said by her (i.e. after she's gone quiet)?

What's your role, FoU-chan?

10) Have fun with the wifom, nano desu
What, expecting me to answer? How about this: I'll tell you what my role isn't. For Day 1: Seto Kaiba. That is, that's not my role.
Now, the question is, whether you're scum trying to get role information out of this, or town trying to see how I react to blatant role fishing.

Return question: Pick two of these five questions to answer.
1. Are you willing to provide a list of Japanese honorifics and what they mean to this forum?
2. Does your theme have anything to do with peacocks?
3. If you had a night kill that only works on cult leaders and survivors, would you use it in lieu of your normal actions?
4. If you had a self-revive that only works during the first two cycles, would you make an effort to direct the scum kill to yourself?
5. Rate each of these questions in terms of usefulness on a scale from 1 to 5 where 1 is the highest and 5 is the lowest.
How is this supposed to help? I get it's a reaction test, but aren't we out of that stage already?

I'm sad there's less of it than I thought :'(
