[Hectic]

Lul, they have some use which I'll elaborate on later, Ronda, but I admit I'm mostly doing it for fun. Why'd you answer them if you disagree with their use?

[Hectic]

Actually, answer these instead please:

Hey, does everyone mind asking some questions? I want to try RQS (Random Questioning Stage) this game for fun. It's some fun harmless questions which has potential to start discussion. Appreciate if everyone answers. I'm well-versed in Pikapika, so I can translate what Detective Pikachu says.

0) Are you town or scum?
1) Do you prefer playing town or scum?
2) What is your experience with playing mafia?
3) If you could have a super power, what would you pick?
4) What is your ideal location to live in?
5) How excited are you to play this game?
6) If you could ask other players another question, what would that question be?

0) Scum is a harsh word. I'd prefer if you phrased it as "mafia". So, town.
1) Town. Lying is effort.
2) Probably 2000+ hours of irl mafia (not even slightly exaggerating). 20 games of forum mafia.
3) Mind reading.
4) Canada.
5) Very excited. I really enjoy Newbie games.
6) Hmm, I can't think of any right now. Ask me again later.

6) can we lynch hectic already

Absolutely. Being lynched is my favourite pastime, and you'll often find me in the village square looking longingly up at dangling ropes.

[Natsu]

Oh boy. At first I was going to complain about the SE's not setting Hectic straight for his trash tier posting. But then I realized he was an SE, even though he says he's quite new. Then again in my last game the SE's were the ones making all the questionable moves. Do people typically get worse at mafia the more they play?

Hey, friends!

I'm quite new, so is it okay if I lurk this game and try to learn from the more experienced people? Also, should we mass claim? It could be useful to talk about who we target in the night. I will start: I am the Town Goon. I am not allowed to target anyone in the night.

VOTE: 72offsuit

This is somehow worse than the first post of a person in my last game, which got her massively scumread and lynch-mobbed. You are playing a complete fool on purpose here. I'm guessing you are trying to get an actual vanilla townie newb to be like "hey, it shouldn't say town goon!" and then vote for you because you look like a terrible scum player who just tipped their hand. So I guess I'll go ahead and grant you your wish and vote for you because it's not supposed to say town goon.
VOTE: Hectic

After reading further I find that Hectic actually has thousands of hours of mafia gametime. But I'll keep my vote here to see where he's taking us with this style of posting.

[Natsu]

Also, the mod has missed dkkoba's vote on Hectic in the analysys. Hectic is at L-2.

You're Obum??? Of course you are. You didn't keep your promise and RVS me though. Sumuh.

Overall, I really like Pikachu's answers. However, choosing to live

there

of all places is a little questionable, and might even be a little scummy, but I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt here. Voting Arthur for being the one who was actually whooshed since Natsu was making a joke?

[Hectic]

I'm guessing you are trying to get an actual vanilla townie newb to be like "hey, it shouldn't say town goon!" and then vote for you because you look like a terrible scum player who just tipped their hand.

Hey, Natsu. Why do you think scum would employ this strategy?

[Hectic]

@Natsu and Doro: Mind answering the questions? They won't take that long to answer.

[DkKoba]

I'm on break so can't properly respond to anything but I'm already not a fan of DP's stupid gimmick

[dsjstr]

0) Are you town or scum? Town
1) Do you prefer playing town or scum? lol okay
2) What is your experience with playing mafia? Some short games, and I've played a handful of games on here.
3) If you could have a super power, what would you pick? Electricity
4) What is your ideal location to live in? Close to work
5) How excited are you to play this game? I know 4 people
6) If you could ask other players another question, what would that question be? If you saw that another player accidentally talked about an on-going game and you were the first person to notice, what would you do? @everyone[/quote]

@Detective Pikachu
1. I can't work out if you're trying to be serious or not
2. Why are dsjstr, Natsu and I considered scummy?
3. Normally a weird post like this would be considered scummy, listing everyone like you're so smart and not even giving justification? But then again I can't work out if you're scum or just making a bad play.

[Natsu]

Hey, Natsu. Why do you think scum would employ this strategy?

Specifically to out a town role from someone who contests you. Might make PR hunting easier somehow. No one took the bait though. I don't necessarily see it as scummy at this point in time. As for the questions:

0. Town (finally)
1. I think I prefer playing as town. Too early to tell.
2. I've played two games on this site, both flawless mafia games. Also some Town of Salem and a little irl stuff.
3. Going back in time.
4. The virtual world
5. A fair bit.

Why would giving my take off RVS posts be a "bad play"?

Hello people.

Woah woah we're at L-1 already and just woke up in the morning.
DP is obviously either scum or not a great player. This is probably the same with Hectic. The thing is they both seem so authentically mediocre that I would be impressed with any scum managing to fake play the way they do. I'm happy with policy lynches not on D1 and definitely not on the first day of D1. I also have reason to suspect at least one of the wagoners of being mafia. This is a very common tactic that mafia use - getting town to vote for the bad players instead of scum. Analysing the wagoners on Hectic.

6) can we lynch hectic already

@ROUND ONE, your post appears to be fairly non-suspect, you simply voted for him because you felt he was a bad player, although I personally wouldn't have gone so far as to vote for him.
