Responding to "pressure", caring about "pressure" at all, is the quintessential noob move in mafia. Competent players don't react to being voted; even more competent players lampshade it. Trying to "pressure" somebody with a vote is a huge waste of time and only gets you bad information because the enemy can obviously see what you're doing and react accordingly. Just talk to each other like humans.
Ayup. I'm a noob. I'm going off
old advice from dakarian. Do you disagree with his methods? Am I not following those methods properly? How would you suggest I determine right now who's scum and who's not?
I'm a very up-front person by nature and honestly have a hard time lying about most things; even in the one game here where I was mafia, I told the closest thing to the truth I could find that would hopefully not give me away at all times. Uh, I also got lynched, so. Actually, that game was above-average level of play on most parts, and should be checked out! It was the one Fallacy did with gas.
I read that game. The play was clever, and the flavor was disturbing.
Anyway, one last bit for Superdorf: If that obvious joke spreads confusion, then the players deserve to lose. You got to be able to keep the fluff out of your brain to play mafia!
So it's a joke, then. Does it serve to help reveal scum? If so, how so?
Fake edit: Oh shit, "I totally don't like being on this bandwagon I just joined, and I'll get off later, I promise!" is actually something I regard as a very blatant scumtactic. So, uh, Superdorf. I prefer to avoid voting for people who vote for me, but I can't let that slide.
Oh? Maybe so. I'm not trying to get you killed yet, at any rate. Just talking. And oh look, you're talking. A lot. Progress!
Superdorf:
Well that doesn't sound shady as all shit or anything. Why would you, to paraphrase, "hop off this bandwagon" if it gets too large?
Again, because I don't want this guy killed before I can figure out (or at least make an educated guess at) what he is. Lynching him after he's had time to say something really incriminating is all well and good-- lynching him because he's confusing is not. Is that shady of me?
Oh don't be a bitch. We do have new-ish players here. And, of course, you'll likely vote me for saying that, so just go ahead and do it.
Do you agree with his views against my "pressure", though? I'm curious.
I'll try and put some questions up in a bit. Gotta go back and see what's worth poking.
