MAFIA 75: TROUBLE AT THE PRECINCT [HIDDEN]

[President Eden]

ghug what do you take away from this conversation?

I mean I declared worcej locktown halfway through day 1 so there’s nothing new to find there.

There’s a fact at the core of his argument: the bona thing is underexplained. This is… true? apparent? not really scummy at all? Then it’s a bunch of kinda mean harping on it and Eden not really helping the situation by answering directly, but I’d probably be pretty annoyed in his shoes.

I think explaining it would be detrimental still. I wish I’d just left it alone, but I naively thought that I could just hash it out anyway, despite having good reason to think it wouldn’t work out.

sadge

But also I don't think it's worth worrying over, I usually play this game down like 11 teammates and do fine

[President Eden]

I’m just frustrated in a meta sense because being sussed is whatever, people have bad reasons for it all the time. Lord knows I do! But it’s a real slap in the face when someone you’re pretty certain is your teammate just refuses to even entertain the idea that you might be attempting to resolve the disagreement in good faith. Maybe people can point to times where I’ve done this to them recently as their actual teammate and not simply been right about them being mafia, but I really do feel like I give my teammates a fair chance to show me where I’m going astray. I can very reliably be counted on to waver even on suspects that I’m locked in on correctly for good reasons because I’m always worried that they might actually be on my team and I’m just ignoring good reasons to listen to them.

That worry doesn’t always show. I was pretty harsh with Byz by the end of the day because I felt like he kept slapping my hand away and doubling down on distortions and lies. I’ve been pretty harsh with people before, like Chaqa, because I felt similarly. And, of course, if I’m constantly worrying about being wrong then I don’t get to banter about being right, and that’s no fun.

But this whole issue means a lot to me because I think a lot of people don’t try nearly hard enough to bridge the gap with their teammates and that we actually see a lot of town collapses here because of it. People get lazy and pick an answer that kinda sounds good and they don’t engage with the person to figure out why the answer is wrong and then lo and behold, mafia have inexplicably come out with a W despite all odds. Plus, it makes the games really fucking nasty and toxic.

[snowy801]

So anyway, in not Eden and worcej land

How do people feel about *checks notes* pyxxy?

[snowy801]

For the record both of my game are in night phase are close to night phase hence why I'm here. Their game threads are. Closed during night

this looks like an edited post

PE deserves an Oscar for this performance

I take it you think scum Eden?

[bo_sox48]

Nah. But there’s no way he isn’t playing this up.

[snowy801]

Nah. But there’s no way he isn’t playing this up.

to what end?

[ghug]

Nah. But there’s no way he isn’t playing this up.

I think u rong

[bo_sox48]

Nah. But there’s no way he isn’t playing this up.

Teachers exaggerate life lessons because that’s what makes them memorable. PE thinks he’s a teacher man

[BesharamSabi]

Part of me wants to give lock town, town core status to worcej

But he's only town if he's loud and wrong. I think his case and push in eden has a lot merit to it.

Eden looks terrible under pressure and the whole weird ate at the end.

[bo_sox48]

Nah. But there’s no way he isn’t playing this up.

I think u rong

Has PE ever done something purely irrational despite his good intentions simply because he let his emotions overcome his reasonable, logical mindset?

The answer is yes, so you might be right and I might be rong

[BesharamSabi]

Idk why eden turned on Bona when Bona in several games has been Mia for large chunks of time, not during school, that eden just shrugged his shoulders at.

[BesharamSabi]

I really don't like eden resorting to guilt tripping and making worcej look like he's bumbling fool just because worcej simply asked him why he made a 180 on Bona. Which anyone would do

[snowy801]

Nah. But there’s no way he isn’t playing this up.

to what end?

Under this supposition I would argue Eden does not deserve an Oscars for being himself, no?

Outside of trying to buy one at an estate sale in Illinois in 2015 I have never been anywhere near the Oscars, so I don’t really know what makes a performance deserving of an Oscar. But I do know that Nicholas Cage keeps getting cast to play Nicholas Cage over and over again, so obviously Hollywood deems there to be some value in being oneself

[BesharamSabi]

In a w!Eden world I could see him trying to pocket and hard shielding a newbie like Rumi.

I don't see w!Eden turning on t!Bona like that tho. He wouldn't try to bite the hand that feeds (him townreads). That type of heel turn I would see if Bona was scum with him which I just don't see is the most optimal move esp since no one was really sussing him.

I just don't see w!eden turning on Bona in any world. Eden isn't that bad at mafia.

[snowy801]

Just seems like a weird thing to say about a guy you think is town
