Mafia Game Threads / Re: Mafia 138 - Hungry Hungry Hippo Mafia - Day 1 has Started!

« on: July 27, 2022, 03:18:42 pm »

I’m firmly on team Eddie/Joth now!

Why is Eddie/Joth a team? What made you want to join it?

These are the folks instrumental in exiling Jack. They are my town team. Either of them not joining the wagon would have made traction on exiling scum way harder.

This really doesn't compute. If Eddie/Joth are the folks most instrumental in exiling Jack, you can be HAPPY with their actions (I am) but in terms of whether their actions make them GoodPeople...their actions really just means "They are very much not Jack's partner."  Which means they are either SK or Town, each having equal incentive/happiness at exiling a Goon on Day1.

The only world where Jack's partner is somehow still alive is when it is gkreig going crrrrazy with a gambit.  So, you're saying "I am sure Eddie/joth are on my team because they are not Jack's partner....really doesn't compute with the statements you made here"

Eh, I’ll just claim

I’m the vig

I killed Joseph, who was the other scum. He killed faust, who was VT.

Also, a little DAMA.

Ohhhh…..spicy!

So, we just need to find the SK?

So, what are your thoughts on gkrieg's claim?

I believe him. Or at least I think it’s in our best interest to proceed as if what he is saying is true. If it’s not, we find out soon enough.

Do you have alternate theories for the room?

Not yet

EFHW / Eddie seem to be making the most sense; not super helpful because their conclusions are not the same. 


Also,
I'm not super interested in voting for MiX today.

I mean, right now the PRs won’t be doing anything.

I am unlikely to be trusting a weird cop that doesn’t claim today.

And the RB has to double tap a SK while blindfolded.

But again, this is just my take. And I am fine with not claiming.

My assumption is gkrieg is telling the truth.  That's not a winning play by Goon#2.

So we're hunting SK...yeah, claims...the RB is really not helpful right now because of what UncleE says. But it's not super helpful as a named town either, due to the body-snatch effect.  Named town is much less powerful in this setup; it's a neat setup.  But I don't think UncleE is correct about weird cop; I'd want to have results before I claimed.  Claiming just to be a named person isn't as strong as claiming with results.

I don't have a go-to didds-rule, but I'm saying Didds D1 behavior is more scum-oriented than town-oriented.

I think Didds level of heing and hawing has been much higher, also has been put on display on a awkward way....feels performative.

And if Didds is borrowing the metric of scumShraeye is shraeye-lite, it really feels like this is didds-lite.  I was thinking about that before Didds came in with her analysis on her wagon.

Hmmm....  I was looking at the people voting for me...

And wow. The amount of effort/substance staggered me.

I've been thinking about partners.  Initially, Mix seemed like a great candidate. Still a good one. But Eddie is making a decent effort to supplant MiX.

I am not sure I want to call it scummy, could just be no effort.

You want to call it scummy. Just follow your heart!

I ❤️ you faust! But honestly, I can’t decide. Is it scummy or lazy? I have a hard time seeing through my saltiness that it’s directed at me, but I don’t want to just OMGUS.

So, you're asking Faust if it's scummy or lazy? Or the room? Or just highlighting your thought process?

I take fausts position on lurking. It just happens...also certain people are prone to lurk not just because they have a lack of things to say, but because of timezones/availability.  I seem to recall Jimmm getting labeled a lurker quite often, well...timezones.

It's always a bit of a bad idea to focus on active players, but it's even worse in multiball. Scum prefers shooting the active players, so there's a good chance that active scum will just be eliminated by the other team.

Who's focusing on active players?  Is this an announcement to the crowd about strategic behavior, or a stone cast at a particular player?

vote: joth

I want to have a meaningful vote down and I don’t like how he is sticking to his flimsy case on faust.

Is he sticking to his case? What makes you say that, gkrieg?

Joth, are you sticking to your case?

I think Shraeye is the only one I haven't played with before. Seems like very short posts, but enough to seem active. Very shifty... already voted at least 3 different players. Is this normal? Keeping my eye out.

It’s totally normal. He doesn’t fly around as much as MiX, but he does unexplained things (like hands out passes or gives people points but doesn’t tell us what the points correlate to). It’s not scummy for him, really.

When RaeRae, who knows him best is playing, she says that scum Shraeye is like Shraeye-lite. There’s a lot of fizz but not much heft. But that is really hard to discern in D1.

So, is my fizz hefty enough for you today?

MiX, stop being shifty.

What did I do?

Shifted, presumably.

I am 100% not lurking. The only thing I am not doing is voting because I do not yet have a good enough sense of things to make an assessment.

Why is a "good sense of things" prerequisite to voting on day1. It most certainly should not be.

One of those two is dying today, best to get used the idea.

Or MiX, but I’d rather wait till tomorrow.

Or you?

Joth has already shown that awareness multiple times, so he'd remember it as either alignment.

I seem this factual.

Note for the record, that I pointed out faust playing out of character and Joseph rushed to his defense.

Also scum has daytalk.

vote: Joseph2302

Are you suggesting that in the 4.5 minutes between your post and Joseph's, Joseph and I coordinated that they should defend me?

It's entirely possible he took the initiative to defend you without coordination. Either way, it pinged me a little.

But Joseph made a good point that was missing from the discussion. It doesn't look like defending faust to me.

EFHW defending Joseph's stellar defense of Faust, but joth doesn't vote her for it???

vote: joth

inb4 someone mentions that partner-dependent cases are especially rubbish early game cases.

I'm fine with my vote where it is but I admit that it's the flimsiest of cases and I eagerly await a better one.

I didn't miss a lot. And turns out it's only been 12 hours! I  don't see asking for explanations as svummy. What's rhe scum narrative? Or are we still in RCS (random conversation stage)?

That’s my secret, Cap. I’m always in RCS.

Copying my moves? Scummy.

Judging requests? Also scummy.  But I'll give you a pass this time.

Giving passes, huh? Very scummy.

Saying things are very scummy, huh? Very towny.

Anyway, hmm. Can anyone read joth off these posts? I'm sure it's possible, I just can't do it personally.

I cannot
