MAFIA 71: "PAPERS PLEASE" - GAME THREAD [Hidden]

[Durga]

OK I haven't read anything, but some tips from a seasoned player.

Multi is a crapshoot. Scumhunting is just a placebo. This variant is all about alliances.

That said, would anyone want to join my alliance?

Me. And with me comes foxy

[Durga]

Sorry I thought this started tomorrow. Has anyone shot Kgray yet?

Okay I also thought it started tomorrow...... And I think someone else in here also said the same thing.

[bozotheclown]

yo how does this game work again

MWME I'M SO HAPPY YOU ARE PLAYING!!!

All my weeks of begging for 4 straight games has worked.

So now it's questions time since I'm not familiar with how you play:

So what is your style of play?

Do you scum hunt and if so what style of scum hunt do you do?

Out of everyone in the players list that you played with before, who do you struggle to read and why?

Hopefully you answer these questions. : )

How do you know captainmeme?

[Durga]

Bozo, they went to college together in Paris about half a decade ago.

It doesn't count as encryption if I say how I'm doing it, right?

Yeah let's ally with kgray so we can all be friends this time.

@Chris, in Discord click the gear icon on the bottom left next to the headphones, scroll down to “Activity Status” under “Activity Settings,” and toggle “Display current activity as a status message.” (The bubble should go from green to grey.) Discord’s default setting is unfortunately very intrusive.

Thanks, Eden. I'll try that. Apart from being intrusive, I find Discord to be meddlesome and prying. For example, how did Discord know I was playing AoE2? Of course, Steam would know that I was playing, but is Discord connected to Steam?

I've seen a few disingenuous posts here today, and I can't resist the temptation to post one myself. It's about Discord. Here goes ....

I'm going to ignore what you said about Discord, Eden. It's much better if I just close down Discord and be done with it!

xoyondo could have solved all of your problems.

That leaves us open to public keys, so we probably need a more stringent standard.

I will have the most insane amount of fomo if y'all are all scum together omg

[Fluminator]

Ok

Flum
Durga
Foxy
Ghug
Kgray

Also, just so everyone is on the same page, I told Kgray before the game started I'd shoot her right away if I had the dayshot, so the fact she's not dead is basically a hardclaim I'm not the vig

you don't even like being scum!

In regards to contributing to the game: a series of never ending questions to me and not one deez nutz reference which is amazing.

What does it mean to you to contribute, then? Because it’s certainly possible to ask a bunch of questions and not come to any conclusions, which I wouldn’t consider a contribution.

I’m regards to how kills are set up: So there is two night kills but town only gets one day kill? That seems a bit unfair to me. What is the lylo/kylo math on how many miskills town is allowed before we are fucked?

I’m not sure. The numbers get tricky when multiple factions are involved, because each faction competes against each other as well as the town. We could plausibly end a day without a majority and then still win handily if the mafia shoot each other. For instance, we could lose our majority as soon as Day 3 (two misses plus a missed dayvig), but the mafia would almost certainly care more about ridding the game of each other than the remaining town at that point.

The mafia also meaningfully lack perfect information, so their control over the pace of the game is far from assured.

Interesting that Eden glosses over the part where Sabi thinks the maf teams know each other. Anyone else want to think about what that means?

I thought PE clearly addressed what BesharamSabi said before you brought it up.

I'd rather we all be town together.

[bozotheclown]

I submit that removing Eden is pro-town regardless of his alignment. I'm already exhausted.

only scum!ghug buddies me

This is demonstrably false. I'm always town.

I think kgray and ghug may finally be scum together.

[Fluminator]

If we can get >50% of the players in the alliance, it would become safe for mafia players in it to claim because we won't kill them. We might be able to work with one team to eliminate the other actually.

[kgray]

think again bozo!

I could see it. Are you the dayvig? Might be a good shot

That is not what Discord told me.
