Mafia XL - A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum

I feel pretty strongly that Bozo is town, for the record.

This is prob worth reposting

I love Balki, and I likely agree with this. But as it stands he outted a PR and hasn't had the most accurate reads (then again, who has - certainly not me). So let's not pretend he was right on everything

[damo666]

....actually, by saying I'm the Village Idiot, I'm implying that I am town, aren't I?!

So this is how it works!

Salve, socius Romanorum.

This is actually quite suspicious given Szpoti scum

I read that and wasn't sure what it meant, google didn't help. What is it?

[bo_sox48]

All it says is "hello, fellow Roman."

[ghug]

Hello, friend of Romans. Guessing it's a bad translation of what bo said though.

Sheeping confirmed town before LYLO is a great way to lose, and establishes a nice pattern of DrC avoiding shit.

Demon should definitely list and then pass to an unknown, who should in turn be forced to take an item themself. We're on track for MYLO rather than LYLO, so that gets us a probable extra kill or an outed scum.

I thought you weren't going to contribute today. You're happy to poorly translate Latin but not able to do anything else?

[bo_sox48]

Yup.

[bo_sox48]

Actually, no.

##VOTE ghug

Now I'm done.

[Squigs44]

##vote ghug

Why? We're getting to the point that you normally shine at, so give me at least something to go off of instead of just sheeping you.

I normally shine
I'm confused
Thus scum is clever
Ghug is clever

[Durga]

Come on that's terrible Squigs

[bo_sox48]

How? We've clearly been miles away from doing anything significant thus far this game. And who fearkills Vecna before Balki?

[worcej]

Well I am going with my #1 Scum read, which is now ##vote Durga.

I stand by the fake Balki interactions and the constant distancing herself from pressure.

So you think it was fake on my end and not on his? What? You don't see how that interaction could be town v town? Also, explain that second part a little better. What does it mean to constantly distance myself from pressure. I don't really get it. And what is scummy about it.

With the confirmation of Balki as town, I can only assume now that the fakeness I felt was driven from you. I already had more scum vibes from you, thus you were the first slot on my list.

It could be town v town, and in an isolated bubble I would think that. But you've been involved with arguments and scum reading several, some confirmed, town. D1/N1 it was pushing RHK (no CC), damo (NAI atm), then Balki. D2/N2 it was Balki and peter. D3 means nothing (thanks Xorxes). N3/D4 was again Ike, yavu, Balki. We can all have bad reads, as you have admitted while I cross post the quote above, but how you have been reading and posting has come across as trying to convince others onto your reads, which have mostly been town. I just don't buy you being that bad at town - I think you're playing the 'try to look like solving without actually solving' scum role.

This sounds like it's really important to you. I suggest that you write a strongly worded letter after this game is over to secure that apology for Foxcastle.

For now, please tell us who is scum and why.

ND is scum. I have explained why I think this.

I also have a theory Worcej may be scum. It goes like this:
- Worcej is scum and drew the Box.
- Worcej attempts to persuade town of a false narrative that the GM would rig the setup to have the Box be guaranteed to start on a Roman.
- If town swallows this muck, then later if it is found Worcej had the Box, he can claim to be a townclear.

any comment worcej?

I mean, not much to comment on other than repeat posts. So a TL;DR is I drew box and was kinda hopeful that I would get a gun or a scan in order to make a meaningful impact, but all I got is a passive item that is boring as shit lol...

Since the quote from Jaime: I revealed my box, I've revealed my item, and I revealed who I gave the box to and it was confirmed. The important note of it all is this though: All of these actions I did are NAI, so you'll have to draw your own conclusion based on the other content I am hopefully providing you.

Who said it was based on fear kills?

[ghug]

Come on that's terrible Squigs

He thinks I'm clever I can't be mad. I think he's just fishing.

Why would I specifically fearkill Vecna over Balki, bo?

You are also human and make mistakes. I have no strong read on ghug, so I am not going to persuade you away from him if you really have a strong read on him. The only thing I can comment on is this:

Literally the only thing worcej has going for him is that he's passed the box to another scumpool candidate. I see very little in his play that screams town, he cast an important vote on thd to put him back ahead of RHK day one and he ended day two uselessly on fucking xorxes, so yeah, he'd make a good deal of sense if RHK turns out to be lying. He voted for flash at a key time, but "people don't bus" is a terrible way to view the game, and I don't actually have a flash flip to trust yet. I have solid reasons to townread everyone I didn't list.

At the time of my vote, Damo was the leading wagon and I have said several times I feel like damo is town this game. I struggle to see how my vote was important because all it did was tie damo and thd, with Demon being 1 vote back (6-6-5 were the votes at the time). The critical votes IMO were DrCJG, Demons, and Damos - all of which moved thd above damo. Of that list, DrCJG is the softest reasoning ("rather him than Damo" without any explanation why damo should be saved) while the others at least had self-saving motivation behind them.

I'll offer something else that we may have ignored:

This game is boring

IMHO - The only way this game could be boring compared to other mafia games is the fact that the mafia team is somewhat rolling town right now. Thoughts anyone?

[Durga]

I hate this whole "you're scum because you haven't caught scum" bs. No one's been accurate this game, and I'm not the fucking messiah. I don't even think you truly believe I'm scum worcej, you were much more aggressive last game with your reads.

[Durga]

And actually, for all you know damo is scum, and I have caught scum.

[Durga]

Or do you know more? Tell me more about your superior knowledge of my shit play
