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

[Durga]

Wait hold up, PE was kinda townie but why is he some peoples strongest (one of) town reads? What did he do other than rage quit over something stupid?

[Squigs44]

strange to see squiggs acting in such a tone. always such a pleasant individual in rpgs, trivia games and sock drawer pleasantries. I must say I am surprised to see someone upset about a barely floated idea.

what threatens you about that pairing of names?

I'm not upset? I just don't think this game has been very productive and filling it with speculation doesn't help anyone. Chris did have a bit of a point in that its difficult to parse through so much filler to find actual content. Part of that is just that Day 1 sucks I suppose

the game is speculation
thats the entire point of the game
im actually really annoyed you would gaslight me and pretend this isnt how the game works.

gonna walk away now before I snap at you

I dont think I've ever seen you get offended this way. I apologize for not making myself clear - I have no ill will towards you.
My goal is not to gaslight you or disregard your posts, it is to help you communicate better but if you don't want my thoughts on the subject I'll move on I guess.

[Durga]

Have you ever played mafia with bb Squigs

[kgray]

I am still down to get captainmeme

I confess I just remember him pushing the no-kill. It's a bad idea, but why is it scummy?

It's not necessarily scummy, but it's not townie either. There's just a lack of content despite posts being made and a lack of engagement and I wouldn't mind seeing some pressure otherwise I doubt we'll get anything more than meme meme-ing all game

Meme has certainly been a lot more active than I was expecting, even if it's just been memes. I was originally thinking it was scummy that he wasn't completely lurking, but if he were trying to fake his engagement he could surely do better?

How does this compare to what you expected from him?

[Squigs44]

Yes

[rdrivera2005]

What's up with Bozo? He has seemed very similar to his town game last game. Him "catching" lfischl in a lie seems pretty standard town!bozo to me

I didn't said he is scummy, just that I am not impressed.
I usually have a hard time reading Bozo, but I thought he would be more involved in a game with two-Mafia and a lot of roles

Sorry, the way you structured your sentences made it seem like you were considering voting Bozo or Bona. Also, I feel like he has been more involved than usual, not sure what you mean by that. He's got an above average post count and his posts generally aren't filler.

I could vote for Bozo or Bona if they are an option against someone I townread but I am now starting a wagon on them.

Durga got what I meant with my comment. It's not about post count but about not remembering anything about his posts. Maybe it's just my bad memory, lol.

Wait, you were expecting less than 17 posts from meme? Weird that the guy who pushes a no kill because "we have more info on day 2" provides little information on day 1. If this is his normal behavior, why does he even play in the first place?

[kgray]

The whole thing with him scumreading me just felt the same as when we argued in that other game. When he reevaluated me based on that game and came to the same conclusion, I felt like we were clashing over the same type of stuff and therefore that he's town again.

I am NOT starrting a wagon.

Seems I can't type on phone.

I can't actually remember a time he hasn't either joked or lurked all game as town or scum but my memory is shit

I haven't played with meme, I was just told (by other people and also him I think? lol) that he was a lurker and would barely meet the minimum posting requirements. It's just hearsay I guess, and I don't have any first-hand knowledge of how he normally plays.

[lfischl]

From M70:

ohhhhh that cat.

Lmao okay it's weird but is it scummy?

I completely forgot this happened

Oh joking all game is normal too, not just lurking. Okay then in that case his play doesn't surprise me that much.

Okay but being NAI all game is not it and we shouldn't stand for it

Yeah that's fair. And I'm down to join a wagon with you and Rivera. ##vote captainmeme

[snowy801]

we’re not voting squigs today lol

Pourquoi?

Cause he's Eden, and that slot is one of my (and others', I think) strongest townreads. Can you explain what you thought was wagon manipulation?

I'm skipping the entire next page but uh

People commenting on the nature of the voters and not the votee is textbook manipulation in my opinion. Not that I base my reads off that, but it's somewhere to start

That said I don't read Eden as coming off as particularly towny until his ragequit. What made you feel that way?

[damo666]

@Flum you need to revote for the bot

[damo666]

##vote captain

prefer that to the other 2 wagons

[Jamiet99uk]

##vote TheEpicPoggersLightningBoatMeme

Good morning all

GM NOTE

This is not a valid vote.

were good man.
can you indulge me just the slightest and look back at that quote from flyingboat that I posted.

and just again; indulge me for a moment: if he were to flip mafia, how do you feel about that quote? how do you feel about the names he listed? what is the liklihood he listed a teammate in that grouping? what are the odds he listed both his teammates in that? or none?

just humor me and thats all I ask. what are your opinions on that outside of “we dont have time to wonder about possibilities”.
