Oops, you dodged the question. Vote: Geolib.

Okay, I'm awake now.  I see there were already some votes flying.  As for Eevee...

From wikipedia: Eevee is a mammalian creature with brown fur, a bushy tail that has a cream-colored tip, and a furry collar that is also cream-colored. Eevee has brown eyes, big ears, and pink paw pads. Eevee is said to have an irregularly shaped genetic structure, enabling it to evolve into multiple Pokémon.  Eevee are quite rare, but are able to live almost anywhere, as they may evolve to suit their surroundings.  While appearing very simple in appearance, Eevee is best known for its unstable genetic code which allows it to change and mutate into different forms (through evolution) depending on its environment.

So, clearly, Eevee is scum.  2/9 is rare.  Evolving to suit surroundings?  Vote: Eevee

I knew Eevee was a pokemon, but I'd never seen it explained so clearly before. Thank you for this.

Clearly everyone is making some great points, but instead of randa-voting I'm going to go to bed and see what's developed by tomorrow.

Question for our esteemed mod: Does the headline change to let folks know the game is afoot?

More like Robvzscum. Vote: Robz. Actually that puts three votes on him a little early. Unvote. How about we get some posts from the people who haven't posted yet since game start? Cuzz, Captain_Frisk, Galzria, O. I say we prod them into joining us.

Hey, some of us are on break and have trouble waking up before 11. Also, I'm new at this and mildly frightened of making a terrible forum mafia faux pas (FMFP).

By the way, I don't know how many of the new players have read previous mafia games. Actually, it would be helpful if you let us know whether you did or not. Please do so in your next post. The reason that's helpful is it can tell me, "Well, that person should have known better than this," or not, etc.

It's also helpful for you to read some of the other games, but obviously that's not a requirement and majorly time consuming. If you do want to read a game, I recommend MIV, which is unfortunately one of the longer ones, but has ample examples of good and bad strategy among townies and mafia.

Everyone seems to think mafia IV was the bomb, makes me sad for missing it and never even reading any of it. :/ Oh well, teaches me to never miss a game again!

I echo Robz, knowing some background would be nice.

So, a survey to all the new faces:
1) Any prior playing experience?
2) Have you read any of the games here, if yes, what games?
3) Does your role involve trying to kill all townies by orchestrating a night kill with your team mates?
4) If we were a mafia pair, which of us would do the kill tonight?

I have read Ozle's Murder Mystery Mafia in detail, and I've popped in and out of some of the other ones, but I didn't pay a huge amount of attention to them. I'll read mafia IV if I have the time later.

Only IRL, I've flitted around on the mafiascum wiki to familiarize myself with the game though.

Ye- I mean NO. DOES YOURS?

Thinking about it, I guess whichever of us was the Goon? Doesn't the other mafia get to do investigating in this set up? [Note: I'm just saying what I think mafia strategy would be.]

Hmm, I feel like answering all of your questions would be a major FMFP. However:

1. Only a few IRL party games.

2. Haven't read any in detail. At Robz's suggestion I might look at IV but Zeus on a bike is that long. I'd really, really love to be able to say that I have better things to do today than read through 140 pages of forum posts.

3. Nice try. My role PM did seem to contain an unnecessary amount of gender confusion though.

4. Again nice try. I've been hurt too many times before.

Uhm 4) was a serious question. Answering "nice try" is like saying "don't you know I can't respond to this truthfully!?" How no one else is voting for Robz for his scumslip is beyond me, but personslly I'm happy I found his scum partner already.

Oh, I see I've screwed myself already. Didn't take long. It was more that I have serious trouble answering hypothetical questions that don't apply to me. Now to shut up for a bit.
