Mafia 56: Scout Camp

[worcej]

About to start reading the thread. Can’t wait to vote EMC.

You'll be disappointed.

Because I love it when Vecna towns me. It never changes anyone's minds but it always makes me feel good. He's one of the few people who is able to look past the defensiveness and townreads me despite it (or because of it)

I think you may be shocked to hear that most people do listen to Vecna, but usually he doesn't say why.

Also, his reads can be wrong and he will fall on his sword with said reads.

I dunno, people tend to keep trying scumreading and voting me (in not insignificant numbers) even when vecna does obvtown me. I guess I just give off that kind of vibe.

[worcej]

We know there are 10 buddy pairs, of which most likely 4 contain a scum (assumes one is S-S, the rest are S-T)

Not sure if worcej being so careless with these numbers means he is more likely town or scum. I'm leaning town.

I missed the scout master, but interpret how you will.

For the same reason I changes it last time.

You know too much and it's scary.

By "know too much", I don't mean that you're necessarily right, but that you seem to have the knowledge and reasoning skills to be a great asset to whatever team you're on. And it might not be my team.

If that makes sense?

No, that felt like a super townie xorx post to me.

[worcej]

Should I be keeping track of who "reads" (that's the word right?) who as what?

It seems like you guy all just know this?

The bot kinda helps take care of this. Are you aware of the bot?

I haven't played here before, so I don't know what someone's towny post looks like.

Right, I understand that now. Why do you think his post is accurate?

I understand your pain. Know I am not really scumming you, if that gives you any sort of joy/happiness.

When you can, use it. It's incredibly valuable.

Macca, xorx appears to call you suspicious and yet you call him out for "knowing too much and its scary" - I know you walk back and say that you don't mean necessarily accurate but it does imply that you think there is some truth to his words, no?

I don't think/know it's accurate. But it's a lot of information, from what I've assumed is strong reasoning and observation.

I'm just scared of someone with a lot more information than me. You could have town read me, and I'd be just the same.

Oops, I hit the wrong quote button. I meant this for a post further up.

warrant? Give me a break.

Are you casting or is this an actual question?

I begin casting in segment 4

fireball coming

Jokes on you, I'm the true arsonist and this is a hidden mechs game.

[e.m.c^42]

These certainly appear to move faster than they used to; or I'm just getting old.

Most notable thing thus far seems to be how rapidly Donny backed off his early read of emc being town for plus oneing a lot (I mean sure, I'd rapidly back off that read too, that reasoning is awful). The reaction to the slightest hint of pressure was pretty poor though methinks.

Bob was also a tad touchy when brainbomb made the mafia chat joke to macca; seemed very quick to slap it down which jars out a bit compared to the rest of the tone of the game.

I will say this in defense of Bob - he's a lot more laid back as scum, and more twitchy as town.

[e.m.c^42]

bobmcbob and macca are both obvtown

Town's the good thing right?

Lmao

[BismarckAlive]

Wow! I rise from my sleep, and already 10 pages to read!
Nice to see some things don't change overnight (like life due to Covid-19!!) - most posts are 1-liners, so I will try find something in nothing...

↑rdrivera2005: "This is weird."
I'm a changed man, rivera. Surrounded by all these camp boys I feel like looking for a Catholic priest.

Emc, do you mind explaining this one because it left a bad taste in my mouth between the multiple priest and boy scout scandals irl

Layered joke of questionably poor taste, which I possess in abundance.

Yes, I am aware of the scandals, and was poking fun at Squigs for his choice in words and situation for flavour. The other part of it was poking fun at myself by playing on the stereotype that a common situation to have the "teenaged sexuality awakening" is when you get shipped off to some same-sex summer camp and discover new experiences after getting dirty, a la Squigs flavour choices again, and that I've got new sins to confess.
