Newbie 2051: Lair of the Skrímsli

Icleandic folklore and mythology are replete with many kinds of Skrímsli (monsters)! Iceland's strangely ordered basalt rock formations were thought to be trolls.




Welcome,
Spartan117,
Mafia Goon
and
Prism,
Mafia Goon
! You are the Mafia team!

This private chat thread is for your plotting. You'll be able to post here and make plans together during the pre-game and at all times during the day and night phases while you are alive.

You can PM your night-kill choices to both Cabd and me or post them in bold text here. You will need to choose which one of you does the kill as well as who you want to kill. I always check my PMs and this topic at the end of night phase in case of last minute changes.

If you have any questions, you can ask them here or send me a PM, whichever you prefer.

Good luck!

(please note:

Hey guys hows it going, with us both being mafia goons ClarkBar that means we have either 1 of the following 3 town setups

1x Town Cop, 6x VT
1x Town Jailkeeper, 6x VT
2x Town Mason, 5x VT

Im not sure how experienced you are but its best not to bring up the game setup in the main chat as that can look quite sus.

Anyone who is speculating the game setup is always going to look like mafia trying to find out who is a power role as they are the prime targets for the night kill and will tend to either keep a bit under the radar to not attract too much attention from us or be trying to lead the way as say a cop or jailkeeper trying to find the right target to investigate during the night.

Also in the main chat we sus each other just like the others for it to not seem like we are being soft on each other if we do something townie we can townie read each other for that and vice versa for doing sus things, so that if one of us gets sused out and goes down we dont both go down, and yeah not to refer to anything mentioned in here so as to insinuate to the others you are in a private thread.

All the best for the game ahead and I can't wait to get stuck in.

Yo, thanks for the outline. You won't have to worry about me mechanically.

Us both being active should result in this being a pretty straightforward win. Skimming the last page or two I've got a few ideas but they can wait until I read through in the morning.

I'm 6 hours behind you. On weekedays, I'm usually going to be active from 1a-5a your time, with the occasional earlier appearance. Weekends, thanks to the pandemic I'll typically be checking in in some capacity all day.

Who are you thinking are the best lynch targets and who do you think are the best NK targets?

#338 made me think of a potential Flow EZ mason pairing, what do you think?

I think #338 makes sense for flow in the context of 336, 'No' as in 'There isn't a reason'. I'm not too good at PR hunting specifically, though, so take it with a grain of salt.

A+++ response to my question. I think Salsi will be tough to get voted but everyone else is on the table imo. I generally go with those for night kills.

The playerlist seems pretty unpredictable, which is both a strength and a curse. Should net us a free miselim or two but easy to get randomly burned.

After Flow started off appearing pretty new hes obviously quite experienced but his unpredictability and refusal to answer questions could help base sus on him.

I'm really hoping flow trap takes the bait and blows up here. Town's getting into its rhythm, even if they're still off base, and I think it should be easy enough for them to find each other given enough time.

I'd like to virtually shut down the game by starting an unreadable ego slapfight.

My Frederick vote is just an easy vote park while I wait for more to play out, I'd definitely vote him as town here but Frederick's way of thinking doesn't match up very well with my own. Hopefully he won't scumread the style but I wouldn't be surprised.

I don't think it requires anything from you-you can vote him, keep pushing esoteric, or really do whatever.

Yeah, the point of it is he he wants to hammer instantly before a claim because a PR claim is more likely scum than a PR if you yourself are a PR.

He's either PR or WIFOMing it.

I think I've got to position a bit more aggressively around you I think but I have no intention of actually bussing you. Words are cheap.

Can probably actually ask why I'd prefer you to Enchant, forcing me to back off by challenging me might look decent
