MAFIA 39 - GAME THREAD

[yavuzovic]

snowy hates being scum. The last time I remember him being scum, he basically admitted it d1. That’s why I think it’s possible he just let himself get replaced. When I GMd a few games ago I had to send him teminders to post, but he seemed to want to try to contribute as a towny.

We should not guess why snowy dipped out. Let's keep it within the game and read yavu

*Excuse me wtf meme*
Why do you save me? I'm afraid of people who tries to buddy me since BB fooled me so bad in MU.

[xorxes]

Lets not get too cocky- theres a heart in play probably. Risk of 2 town deaths if that role ends up having to claim

They would obviously not claim who their loved one is.

But I agree, no claims. There's still valuable town roles to protect.

[damo666]

Yes a guy whos been banned twice for dead posting is a real rule stickler.

Theres no rule against handpicking. All gms make a balanced game. In jamies first game on webdip as a GM he had an all newb scumteam. Back then he used to let it rand

Wasn't aware of that.

Damo seems irritated by my efforts to guess what roles the GM.gave scum.

What harm can possibly come from seeing what items scum likely has?

I'm not saving you?

None I suppose but I just believe random means random.

[ghug]

Has anybody done this exercise?

Sadly no.

Well help me out will you?

It's less compelling if I make the argument, and the original statement was more silly than serious, but scum probably doesn't lambast brain for potentially fakeclaiming between flash claiming he's shot and Moscow flipping.

Vecna's town.

reasoning?

I posted quotes during the night. Squigs gave a really lazy tournament on him and then acknowledged that it was unsubstantiated. Scum are more careful when discussing teammates.

[yavuzovic]

Flash saying dont shoot can also be 1 wolf to save bullet

Durga/flash can both be scum. Its well within boths meta

That is a stretch. I haven't been scum yet, so you don't know how I will play as scum (I don't even know how I would play as scum).

That's exactly what teacher2 said when he was NINJA! He was speaking about how he would be if he was scum.

[damo666]

Ok thank you ghug.

[brainbomb]

None I suppose but I just believe random means random.

My thought is also because ghug claims item was stolen and I dont think town thief just gets lucky and steals head from ghug. They could CLAIM having the head and theres literally no risk to claim.

So imo theif is 100% scum or scum with ghug.

As for repair kit- we will know tomorrow if they got a scan- had a gun- or if theyre potentially a scumteam member.

Or if repair kit was on a dead player

I don't think it's crazy to think that the game could be advertised with, for example, 2 randomly distributed guns, but it's possible that for making the game, they did a random assignment of item -> scum or town before assigning to people, and confirmed the setup was balanced from the randomization of items to both sides and would reroll it if it were highly favoring one side over the other. Maybe that wasn't necessary and they just took the first randomization. But making sure the game is balanced is always an important thought for a GM.

[damo666]

And I doubt scum have slime grenade.

[brainbomb]

I do think durga-ghug-tom all look alot less scummy today.

[xorxes]

Speaking of leading, xorxes is talking a lot, but he sure ain't trying to get anything done.

I'm not pushing ND because there's nothing to push him with, but that's who I think we should vote.

I'm trying to stop people from doing stupid things like lynching flash. I won't try to stop them from lynching you because my townread of you is pretty minimal. I'm definitely not voting for you today.

[y2kjbk]

I think town having both cannons would make this very heavily favor town, even taking away the successful scan we had.

[y2kjbk]

i would never dream of asking the GM to exactly describe how roles were assigned while the game is going beyond what's in the rules, it's up to us to think what we want.

[brainbomb]

From the GM planning QT

Bo: we just randed town having both guns is that OP?

Jamie: nonsense boogerballs! Give scum a theif- and a repair kit so they can have a shot at the 2 guns!! Then its fair! Fair and Balanced like Fox News.

Bo: so were giving scum repair kit and theif item.. what else?

Jamie: vote pill- and foam hammer

Bo: Sweet. Fair

Jamie: Also giving durga and flash guns will be great. Towns been misfiring every game so this is fair!

[xorxes]

My thought is also because ghug claims item was stolen and I dont think town thief just gets lucky and steals head from ghug. They could CLAIM having the head and theres literally no risk to claim.

There's no benefit to claiming either, is there? If we lynch them, they survive, and they can tell us their story then.

The downside of claiming is that it's one fewer candidate for the PC pool, which is what Mafia wants to sort out.

[yavuzovic]

I'm not saving you?

You do, it was a weird case why snowy left the game, I mean I haven't seen him online so far. I don't really know why he left but making a case for that is silly to me. Here you didn't want them to go for me. I asked why.
