Mini 2167: Illicit Substances Mafia (Game Over!)

[morph the cat]

Chapter One:

Well Above The Bell Curve

Spay-half says...

Bell - Remembrance, it all makes sense now. Unless he's already revealed his previous life in other games, I feel like lowering the cloak here is an additional townpoint. I mean, as scum he could have kept that info back and continued to post stuff I was loving and gotten an easy townread.I like his confidence in thinking he can meta scum-zmuffin into the ground, if that's what we have here. (Prior: the easy, almost free-association posting at the start of the game felt really town to both of us. Followed by an insane number of "thinking what we're thinking when we're thinking it" moments. Like more than I've ever run into with an unknown player before. When he gets down into the reasoning behind those moments, we find that reasoning solid and consistent.)

Neuter-half says...

Bell came into the thread spitting fire at S_S early. But instead of trying to keep up with that, we instead see an immediate transition into a townread on midwaybear, for much the same reasons as I did... I hope! 187/193 is quite the jagged swap onto plusjoyed, when we were hinting at/making sounds at it, and then a townish read at S_S. I feel like mafia-bell makes that slide off and onto plusjoyed much less abruptly. 239 is a fairly early townbin of the exact same townbin that we had at that point in time. Calling us an IC is one helluva pocket-attempt if this is a mafia-bell world. Why does bell ever make that joke as mafia, intending to kill us or not? It does nothing but look terrible post-flip. Conclusion: Bell was just shooting the shit and talking about his townread like ffery goes mama bear "I would believe the cop is insane rather than you are mafia" on her townreads sometimes. Several pretty significant townreading-this-slot reasons form the first 50 posts. I'm not gonna bother doing the rest of the Bell ISO because if you don't see it from their first 50 posts, you probably never will. And then I'll cry. And then drown in the puddle that is my tears. And then haunt you by meowing outside your door at 4 AM even though you don't have a cat.

Is there anything there you disagree with? Do you feel like we're handing out the candy to easily for this stage of the game?

is this a Bellmembrance specific thing or do you never see anyone doing this to you?

Bellmembrance specific. He's like me, in that drawing scum sucks the joy in life out of him and he trudges along, going through very intricate motions, but in the center of that edifice, his soul is trapped and dying a little with every post.

Morph

Way down here.
Midwaybear
My phone keeps selecting all making this more annoying than usual.
Way down a little more.
Remi.

I give April a very small town lean. Like, minuscule.

Bicycle is being fairly proactive. Small lean town.
IAI/NS are being weird.
Plusjoyed seems more comfortable in a way that I just don’t understand.

Maybe scum:
Alisae. Aforementioned reasons.

Joke team option but maybe not actually a joke.

Bulge/st.
Muffin/s_S

@muffin are you voting alisae or have you just been fosing at her?

[Remilia Scarlet]

Have you been playing w/ bell before this game?

Otherwise I'm kind of astonished at kind of the extent to which you're claiming to know him. six years is a long time.

And yeah, there are players who would do that to us, especially spayhalf in a heartbeat.

[zMuffinMan]

i haven't voted anyone yet

keeping a pristine voting record in this game

if i vote someone, assume i'm beyond a reasonable level of certainty that they're scum

[Bell]

I don’t care enough to check whether there are 2-3 or 4 scum in this game. But don’t have a stroke because I might be going for cheap town points.

Not played. Been reading on the side a little, since the big reveal. That particular aspect I haven't 100% nailed down but I'm getting there, and unless I find evidence in a scum game, not going to throw that defining aspect of his game out the window.

Ok, then don't have much else to say about it. Cool.

this fucking guy
didn't this happen in Gonzo? or was that a diff game

[Remilia Scarlet]

Ok maybe i'm hopping on the bell town train

Man what kind of asshole would effectively make a 13 player game with 4 mafia in it?

[Remilia Scarlet]

well we know fakegod would make one w/ 2

[Bell]

I usually make a post like that every game and then delete it. But I was too tired to delete it this time~

I know that's you on the inside. It's the outside that scares me. I found this Nacho quote about you in a Sangres game. It didn't stick with me, but it should have!

"Bork, in person and on forum, has one of the most natural scumgames I've seen because of how well his personality meshes with mafia as a game. He approaches the game in the way where it feels like he's taking it apart, but he can and does fake it very effortlessly as scum."

That part you fake. It's the grim determination to overcome despair that I have to look for.

that does not sound like me at all lol. Which game? Don't like I've ever been scum vs sangres

[morph the cat]

We now have... 2 mafia games and 4.5 (I was in and fondly remember dance game so won't need to fully read that ISO) town games to midwaybear metapull from. Might be a few minutes!
