If you're one of those "no one ever plays better than random at mafia" misanthropes I need to reload my day gunD1 is the best day for the totally opposite reasons you're spouting chairs, it has the most complex dayplay, it's analagous to a chess midgame
This is helpful. I suck at chess and D1.
Hmm.. I fail to see the link between this and chess. Unless you have a version of chess where paying attention to your opponent's shoelaces or the weather outside has as much bearing on the game state as the pieces on the board, and where nobody's going to tell you what extra details were in any way important until later.
Does that mean I'm town? Neat.Shoot: MiX
My heart desires a lot of things... reading through a bunch of old games on my vacation day is not exactly one of them...Could you explain why emulating my offtopic posting closely would make me town in your view?
I will say your posts do seem in character for you from other non mafia posts I've read, so there's that, which feels towny.
I am trying to hone in on some non RVS D1 vote, but while I have some ideas, it's still at my usual elusive D1 distance...
Honestly, it's a small thing, but as I've never played with you, I'm trying to just find something to get any kind of bearing. Are you saying it's wrong?
I hear everyone on D1 - clearly it's something I need to get better at. Not sure it's going to happen this game, though.
I can see that pops, but given half the games we play are RMMs, early exiles tend to be more important than they look at first.Yeah in a normal game a d1 exile doesn't affect nightplay much because it's usually a goon and roles like rolecop have less meaning that doctor or cop
In this game it shouldn't matter that much. This is a... 4 mislynch game? Which is I think 1 more than the usual.
I still really like D1 as it's the only day I can scumhunt without needing to care about PRs.

Apparently drunkpops cares more than soberpops.im drunk so im going to not play hearthstone so i don't buy the gold grubbers, but I am about play some m tg
Pops, where are you located? I am totally down for daytime drunk mafia because lockdown has erased all sense of time in our house.
I'm I remembering you use "she", but don't care much about pronouns?
I like this pops. Seems town, or wants to be town. That's a completely different pops from the one that dayvigs 2 IRL days in.How dare you Mix. The zombie game didn't require that much effort, with the wincon being somewhat town adjacent and my play being somewhat obscure here. But new game and you should not be townreading just because I don't have a dayvig, I doubt this setup even has dayvigs. I have done like, nothing this game I couldn't emulate as scum.
What do you think of joth? What do you think of people in general, you were talking a lot in general.Vote: Space for being anti-funny
Meh, Vote: Galz for being anti-space... when am I ever successfully pro-funny? Ask Didds or LL whether they remember me being humorous in person...
You're funny sometimes. It might not be NAI to be unfunny, although I have no idea what Galzria meant by it, what post was he referencing?
Honestly I'd like a clarification from him.
Good morning!!Goldgrubber is the "major" you pick up long after the time has passed for you to have decided on a major
Swowl, the D1 recipe is everything. I ❤️ you.
MiX, I’m laughing at your pops dayvig reference. Definitely a different pops here. I dig it. What are you thinking about chairs? (Other than the obvious mutual admiration?) What about Galz?
Hi Joth! You and I are good. Thanks for asking.
Space is for sure funny! It’s a dry observational humor mixed with genuine charm.
Scola, friend, how are you? I’m not finding you scummy! That’s good news!!
Pops, hi! I don’t know what a goldgrubber is, but it reminds me of gradegrubbers which is what I call students looking for extra points for anything well after the time for earning points has passed. And gradegrubbing is indeed, a trap. The setup talk is hard for me to grok, plus I love the idea of boxing anyone, so I’m totally here for the new and improved Ctown D1 recipe.
Goldgrubber is always a trap children*unless you're rafaam
Oh I am becoming aware of how I have dramatically altered this formula in the pastI was intending to do that soonish. I am playing battlegrounds while reading/rereading so it's very slow. My last game on f.ds wasn't very active so I wasn't expecting drawing it out to make much differenceI'm gonna box that next person who talks about mechanics again, which could be anybody, because it's all any of you are doing. It's a really good way to make an environment where scum can hide and town can't find anything. Please stop
more than you are doing. just saying.
meh that comes off poorly. sorry. but if you don't like the topic being discussed you should invite another one, not just complain about what it is people are actually discussing.
fds day 1s are, in a summary:
1 parts RVS
2 parts set up talk
a dash of bitters
900 dashes of MiX and faust leading random conversation
set oven to 450 and wait until 3 hours to DL and randomly lynch one of the wagons.
so if you got something to talk about. please, switch it up .
This is scummy posting, not terribly so and for the more obvious reasons, that the proportional lack of interest in the game at hand isn't a great look.Agreed, Space!Oh hi Space!
I almost had the same reaction, so you're town.
Heh.. I found it so ammusing I pointed it out to my French lockdown-lodger :-P Shame I haven't managed to get him back here to play any more Mafia.
I've been out of the loop for a couple of games. Anyone want to fill me in on anything relevant that's been happening, since I'm unlikely to have time to read it all?
This is probably a townslip on the other hand, assuming without deciding it's true, I think scum would be likely to think of or characterize their decision in this way/with this wording. Rolecops typically return to kill their targets the following night because they found out their target was "anything but VT".It will give them information about who doesn't have certain roles. Which seems to matter them, since they chose the rolecop.Heyo.
We could reverse engineer what roles are likely in the game based on the choices that skum made for their powers?
Normally, that would be an insta pass I know... but since skum literally knew the roles in play prior to their selections... it is not really giving them any info they don't already have.
TBF I also do not know how helpful mapping it out would be for us... thoughts?
I like this approach - I mean even if not helpful, I don't see how it can hurt.

"Oh I rolled Doctor I should probably decide who the mafia want to kill tonight and message the mod their name or I'm throwing away lots of value" would be what I mean by "except for factors you can't ignore." If you think a Doctor should participate in the dayplay in a fundamentally different way from a VT, like attempting to manipulate their chance of getting nightkilled or something, I fundamentally disagree as I think it's too hard to do; you'll play the daygame much worst or paradoxically spew your role to scum precisely because you set out to do something besides play all your games the same.Heyo.Best play is always to treat setups as vanilla except for factors you just can't ignore.

I mean if you were not a Vt in a game that has deductible logic in it and you are town you def shouldn't play it "from a vt pov" that is just wasted knowledge. But I think I get your point. and if I do, I at least moderately agree with it.
