Mainstream Mafia II: D&D Edition [FIN]

Like TSE has made it known he'll execute when wagons are put in range for him to activate.

As you may have noticed I'm not following this game particularly closely and did not know that.

This is a common theme but people are complaining about policy lynching the slots that don't actually want to play.

And yet that's the best play for a town executioner. A scum executioner would want to reserve the ability to pick and choose.

Just ISOed Elements and tbh I agree with that sentiment. Plus his current posting just seems icky

On the record if I wasn't voting scum!Vork if vote scum!elements.

Why are you scum reading me again?

If Titus were to flip town it's the second wagon going through in lieu of a Vork lynch that's faced a lot of resistance and you pushing it through looks agenda driven. Fair?

Gives me the heebie-jeebies. I thought the way zor aligned himself with UT on most issues and then weirdly started to push him when this was pointed out is pretty awkward.

I was hoping to let him paint himself into a corner a little bit more before pointing this out but yeah

He’s a claimed hider target. I don’t really care about it for now. Ok with dealing with that later.

Based on this I actually put Elements in range
I would invite but rn he needs to actually improve because he is in the red currently

I wouldn't say I was pushing for a Titus wagon given I was unaware of the stakes at the time.

invite what?

[Gamma Emerald]

Unvote not invite
Autocorrect is a shithead sometimes

[Elements]

that makes a lot more sense

[Elements]

How do you envisage me improving exactly?

Please explain

Best play for a town executioner is to 'leash' their power and use it on anyone who hits the condition. (An exception can be made for themself, but no one else)
This is because playing this way means that not executing a valid player can be equated with protecting a scum partner. If the executioner is allowed to pick and choose then it's easier for a scum executioner to keep partners alive.

[Gamma Emerald]

I think you would have to a) do something other than respond to accusations leveled at you and b) just do something to progress the game

I get the town reason. I still don't see why scum wouldn't quick lynch.

Does trying to get the wagon off of me not count as progressing the game?

If only the simple fact of something being objected to make it more likely, detective work would be very easy.

Scum could want a quick lynch when one of their partners is close to getting lynched. Vork and TSE were the highest non-Titus wagons at the time, so scum!you quick-lynching is probably to protect one of them. (And of the two it would probably be Vork since we'd need twice as many votes to kill TSE, and if TSE is scum and Vork isn't then you wouldn't be worried about Vork possibly getting lynched.)

p-edit
... Okay. Bit late to start distancing.

It's not being objected to based on his play, I'd argue.

Something about Titus's posting feels off to me. I don't think it's just being buried under this game, but even when Titus is busy, she's always had a bit more of a force to what she posts that I'm just not seeing here. I don't think I've seen scumTitus, but townTitus usually has reads and analysis up the ass that she gives even when she doesn't have time to give everything at once. And I'm not seeing that same Titus here, and that makes me feel somewhat wary.
