MAFIA 75: TROUBLE AT THE PRECINCT [HIDDEN]

[damo666]

Rumi besides the vote strategy, how would you like to play a day one? Since we currently have zero information (well except mafia because they know who isn't mafia) how do you go about that

Ideally, I'd want to figure out how to gain some amount of factual information before the vote. But I don't know if that's possible. It might be, but I'm not experienced enough with social situations (and have never played Mafia) to understand how.

Alternatively, If I was town I'd want to figure out how everyone thinks and how to convince them to believe or vote in certain ways. I have a bit of a detective mindset.

Is the 2nd para a scumslip?

Bruhh that's not what that means at all come on...

I literally talk like that all the time when I'm trying to explain myself to people especially in a new community where nobody knows me or my play style

Hello everyone. Just quickly done a catch-up.

I find it very strange indeed that Eden did not address the apparent lie from page 4, that first caused him to start getting votes, despite him being very active and despite that apparent lie being mentioned by at least four people.

Eden's reaction to pressure has been a bit weird altogether.

##Vote President Eden

Does anyone have any thoughts about this?

Probably need to be more careful then.

[Jamiet99uk]

For whatever reason, "I think I follow you" in this strikes me as scummy. Can't quite explain it, but it's too agreeable in a way that doesn't feel like it aims to solve. I'm usually pretty good at these feel reads.

Actually like this vote for more than just pressure.

For whatever reason, this entire fucking post strikes me as scummy. I can explain it, because I am a townsperson. I do not oversell myself because that's no bueno.

Actually I'm gonna ##vote Byz

@Bona: Did you mean "I can't explain it" ?

Otherwise, if you meant "I can explain it", can you do that, then?

I'm not sure it was lying, more taking the piss but I agree he ought to address it himself.

Nah context matters

[Princess Neon]

And the context here is that reading that as a scum slip after their play day 1 is actually flimsy and a bad read. The whole picture is a greater sum than one throw away line in response to questioning about approach.

[Princess Neon]

Alternatively the context for the Eden wagon is this. Is bussing common practice here? Because Eden has been a consensus wagon basically all phase with almost no pushback at any time and that feels decidedly more likely to be a mis yeet than a scum bus day 1 with a complete lack of counter wagon play.

In fact the only reason I never voted fake Neon :p is because I've had a hard time grappling my slight scum lean with the fact the vote is stagnant on the slot

I really like this post. Not so sure about Eden as I don’t read him well, but many townie points to Byz

for a just-so story that’s demonstrably untrue?

##VOTE rdrivera2005

my brother in Christ, you’re better than that when you’re town

No, Because the "I think I follow you" also striked me as a weird way to approach someone. I am not saying you are scum because of this, but Byz reacting the same way as I did given him town points to me.

And unfortunately I am not that good as town, I am usually better as Mafia, lol.

@Princess Neon:

I am sure you may mean well but, in general, I would recommend not answering on other people's behalf especially when an accusation is made against them.

It would have been interesting to see Rumi's response to Damo's "is this a scumslip?" post. But now on the off-chance that Rumi is actually nervous n00b scum who made a mistake, you have given him an out.

Bussing is a fairly common occurrence here on webDip, yeah.

What do you mean by "fake Neon" in that post?

for me, the 'agreeableness is vaguely scummy' and especially the 'i am pretty good at these feel reads' set off a ton of alarm bells - what about it makes you like it?

I already answered to Eden, I can identify with the feeling about that specific way to start the phrase.

About the "I am pretty good thing", the vast majority of Web dip players have an oversized ego, doesn't set an alarm bell, it's NAI to me.

I'd prefer to keep the new town player alive than allow a mis yeet that's just how I play read me based off it.

I see. Is the bussing commonplace even on Day 1?

Fake Neon was playfully referring to Eden since they've taken to calling me doppelganger and people have expressed confusion on who is who for some reason or another.

You don't know he's town.

Or do you?
