Mafia Game Threads / Re: RMM 58: Memento Mafia - Day 1!

« on: May 07, 2021, 08:42:12 am »

Hi Eddie!

Even though we know all the timelines now, I still think people on the inactive timeline should vote (or actually probably vote is better so we'll know if someone's timeline changes) so that the active timeline people can at the very least take their opinions into account, even though it looks like we're not getting consensus on binding the exile to the overall majority.

Glooble voting for joth seems more like lazy town than lazy scum tbqh. On the other side of that coin, vote: chairs.

It's occurred to me that timelines merging matches the narrative structure of the movie, so that's a minor point suggesting that that will happen at some point.

EFHW, Dylan, ashersky all have said that the advantage of the italic voting plan is in concealing people's timelines - these are first of all not really possible to conceal as has been pointed out already, and also there seems to be obvious advantages to letting everyone vote. I'm not sure if not picking up on that is scummy or towny though.

No, you have that backwards. The advantage of concealing timelines is that the italics plan could preserve some agency for the forward timeline folks. There are probably too many known timelines at this point for it to work, though.

It sure feels like we're not going to get anywhere if we don't even know who we can exile.

On that note, people who have claimed/are confirmed Reverse: MiX, Glooble, mathdude, faust, hypercube
Forward: Dylan, scolapasta, Galzria, EFHW, Didds
Unknown: chairs, joth, ashersky, PPS, Awaclus, gkreig

So out of Reverse/Unknown, I think I like vote: joth

It would be easier because this is an RMM with supercharged investigative PRs.

Also re. faust - what is this? Either it's creating WIFOM for no obvious reason or it's rolefishing bait. Feels scummy to me in any case.

Every investigative role has a QT, i.e. they can share their results without having to claim.

Ah, I see, thanks.

OK I'm getting caught up here, first off to those I haven't played with before hello!, and I use he/him pronouns just fyi.

Since it seems trivial to determine what timelines people are on I'll go ahead and just say that I'm on the reverse timeline. For now I'm operating under the assumption that at some point the timelines will merge or at least people will get swapped between them since that seems like the most likely way to deal with the potential lategame weirdness.

In regards to the italic voting plan, I'm in favour of binding the choice of exile to the wishes of the overall majority. The voting should only be allowed for people in the active timeline though - it seems obvious to me that trying to pass off exiles to some unknown future day is a bad idea and it's strange to me that faust didn't make this explicit when bringing it up (possibly because he seems to want no-exile D1?).

It would be easier because this is an RMM with supercharged investigative PRs.

Also re. faust - what is this? Either it's creating WIFOM for no obvious reason or it's rolefishing bait. Feels scummy to me in any case.

Re ash's #4. This is an interesting point. Maybe there's a third party who can target both timelines.

Why would this change anything?

I'm down for joth or faust.

Any other ideas?

joth, faust, and mail-mi are the options I think are better than no exile.

Hi all. Welcome to westworld mafia.

My guess is revealing host / human is anti town. Then again, I usually think revealing much D1 is anti town - it does feel like human vs host is a big part of this world.

This is most likely a townslip (unless the scum team is all humans or all hosts, in which case it's a scumslip).

But sure, Vote: scolapasta

This is a scummy vote.

But why is it? Because disagreeing with you is scummy?

It seemed to me that once LL voted for scola you felt like you could drop a OMGUS vote against them for voting you here:

tldr:  Vote: faust

Kind of wild speculation but - it would be neat design for there to be a Mafia Traitor Host with Maintenance.

I've just assuming there is - if not, there'd be no reason not to repair hosts.

Oh wait, maybe you meant the traitor part, especially, not just a regular mafia. That's a good design, true, because then mafia is also unsure about whether to repair or not.

Mafia's already unsure, as they might have to accept.

The possibility of a traitor gives them cover not to I suppose.

I think scum is more likely to be thinking about town's wincon than town is (since they have to be ready to claim it), faust bringing it up is somewhere between NAI and scummy to me.

So - I think we should claim win conditions.

I'm good with this, as long as faust goes first.

My win condition is to have all all mafia dead and at least one town host alive.

That's also my win condition.

I don't really understand what this claiming is aiming to accomplish.

Vote: hypercube

He just seems very eager to be the second person to do things. Jumps along with the No Exile, jumps along with voting for faust. His reason for voting for faust feels like he came up with it after the fact.

Yeah it was not an incredibly well-substantiated vote, but I feel fine about it after seeing faust's reaction and re-reading a bit.

I didn't like faust's vote for ADK and his interaction with Awaclus just seemed pointless and defensive.

What reaction could I have had to my wagon that would have made you think I am town?

You could find someone better for us to be voting for rather than asking how to be towny.

I feel like given that three people had been voting for me and I only questioned one of them, you could have saved yourself the trouble of voting for me.

Well, we're at 2 for 4 now, so, to answer MiX's question, yes.

The people on the faust wagon are looking pretty towny to me, so I'm going to hop on. Vote: faust

What are you trying to achieve with this?

To see if you're defensive about anyone voting for you or if it's just Awaclus.

If scum had some reason to bring up a claiming plan, they wouldn't have backpeadled on it as fast as ADK did.

Without going into detail, how bad do people think that having everyone claim host or human would be? Just yes or no, I don't need you to say why. I have a plan that could be useful but would require everyone to claim which they are and that could potentially be bad

I'm going to say "moderately bad."

Vote: Archetype for this whole thing not being about a super weird post restriction on hypercube which would result in this being BM.

Honestly, I'd prefer to post without capital letters at all, but that wouldn't be pro-town.

Vote: No Exile

I know the flavour, the hosts die all the time and are brought back to life by the humans. Hosts also aren't able to harm humans, at least during most of the first season which is when this game seems to be set. If anyone is Bernard they may be a host who thinks they're a human.
