Warehouse 13: The Mafia Game (Game Over)

[Spiffeh]

I have identified one (1) scum player so far

Good job Spiffeh!

I feel quite good about Prism being town but that's it for things I feel strongly about.

I'm kinda leaning town on mathblade for being for being so laser focused on the prism/bork thing. What do you think there?

[Spiffeh]

Not sure what to think about Prism yet

MathBlade has been transparently town to me from jump and I'm not thrilled with there already seeming to be somewhat of a consensus scum read there

He's clearly not the most charismatic player itg (no offense!) and I feel that's being used to put him in the hot seat already and there is absolutely no scum motivation to start and maintain this back and forth with Prism so early on

[sangres]

Sangres - Which one of you is doing the comforting this game

.

I've only skimmed your posts but this isn't really what I thought that your approach would look like if you're scum this game which is reassuring!

I would have been happier rolling scum this game because while the bucket list you play on YOU might now have been the greatest idea there are still a lot of good targets, but if I'm forced to be town YET AGAIN, being town with the love of my life isn't the WORST thing in the world.

[sangres]

But if you're scum putting in work this game I'm still going to slam dunk you just FYI

[Spiffeh]

Aw Nacho I love you too

[Tammy]

being town with the love of my life isn't the WORST thing in the world.

buddying will get you everywhere!

[sangres]

I'm on my phone so pretty limited, but the short of it is that sangres would make a bigger show of paranoia here, which hasn't happened yet. They also respect my towngame too much to fight on my behalf out of the gate like this, let alone give me the artifact. Hard town.

Playstyle it's nice to have diversity.

Not really digging this townread???

We're pushing you to get an artifact early and tbh I'm not even sure what that artifact does. We don't have to make a big show of paranoia because we can always go back out a townread.

Where's that respect for our scum games?

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

this hair screams scum btw

[sangres]

He thought I'd be the perfect hydra partner for whatever the shenanigans were, though. Probably won't happen in a sangres game, now. Which is probably good for my nerves.

Don't get your hopes up.

Next time we roll scum it's gonna be a SHIT SHOW.

Don't hate me because I'm beautiful baby.

I like the passion and I like the focus even if I don't agree with the direction. Had a minor quibble a bit back that I mentioned, but I don't think that matters overmuch. So, yeah I lean town there.

For Prism, right now I feel like the approach doesn't make sense from scum? That townread on Sangres aside, which I agree looks a bit odd, though I liked them having the town read, putting them null, then coming back to a townread, so I just ignored that bit of oddity. I think that while they'd probably be frustrated with Math's approach anyway that if they were scum, there'd be a kind of pointed interaction instead of just kinda ragey frustration if that makes sense?

[sangres]

oh gods save me I have a town lean on spiffed already :/

shhhhhh just let it happen

you say as you laugh maniacally at the screen

That's pretty sexy if Spiffeh is scum

[sangres]

OK, think I've done enough here to win us the game, see y'all day 2.

[Tammy]

Although my view of Prism as town doesn't really line up with that easy of a town read on nacho hrm.

[SirCakez]

Pooky do you think continuing to proclaim that I'm scum every time I post is going to get you townread?

I can tell you rn it's not working

Why do you even care Spiff? Normally you shake this stuff off.

Why are you having this meltdown less than 24 hours into the game?

Mala assured me that math having a meltdown isn't alignment indicative, more that warehouse 13 is one of maths favorite shows and so math feels strongly about the flavor

But that's immaterial to me because that isn't even close to a "meltdown"


Like, you're in a game with me, GreyICE, and LLD. And while the rules specifically say a dim view will be taken on toxicity and even excessive cursing, it's like... that's what you call a meltdown?!


That doesn't even crack the top 50,000.

-k

Ok what's your point here? This is such a dumb thing to nitpick.

[SirCakez]

I'm expecting a certain half of sangres to be extremely paranoid this game

[Titus]

Ok. I realized my error and read deeper. I think that we should look at two phases with different leaders. People good at townblocking should lead at assigning artifacts. Those good at scumhunting should lead bronzing. These are separate people. I'd defer to Tammy on the artifact (assuming she's town) and LLD (same assumption) leading the afternoon phase. It's harder to scumhunt here without pressure.

Catching up.

[Kitty Trauma Team]

Ok what's your point here? This is such a dumb thing to nitpick.

My point is that I feel like you're making mountains out of emotional molehills by calling that a meltdown, and that's a real real strong alarm bell to me.

So again, I ask you, what part of that post you quoted do you call a meltdown? Two mildly peeved posts, if even that level of annoyance is hardly a meltdown, but that's the word you used.

-k

Although my view of Prism as town doesn't really line up with that easy of a town read on nacho hrm.

To clarify this. One thing I've noticed in the games that I've spectated is that very often the more familiarity Prism has with someone, the higher expectations I think they have, and the more kind of raking them over the coals Prism does.

This isn't always the case, but it's just a little something that I've noticed. I'm not sure that it overrides my thought that this isn't how Prism approaches this as scum holistically though.

[Tammy]

Damn you nacho!

[Titus]

I think Spiffeh town BM scum Prism null LLD scum lean Cakez is prob town but scum in a very minor circumstance so not considering it. If I am right then Titus is town by proxy.

This sounds like gibberish.

Ffery makes more of a show of uncertainty here, your response tackles positioning which is a completely separate issue and doesn't matter.

Neither of you are bad at the alignment but I am scared of neither of you.

[Titus]

The townreads on Sangres feel weird

Agreed. It's too early to get a read there. They feel like reads because of the fact Nacho is in the hydra.

[Titus]

I think the leashing idea is really not smart.

The only thing it does is keep things vanilla and powerless.

I am telling you elim me if you have to the plan is stupid.

Let’s assume Townread X gives an artifact and gives it to scum Y. Scum Y tells the truth we learn nothing.

Let’s assume Scumread Y gives it to Townread X. Townread truth tells we learn nothing unless scum intentionally want to force a 1v1 between those two players.

Assume it’s town and town. We learn nothing.
And assume it’s scum and scum we learn nothing.

Some artifacts will be meant to be passed I think and some kept.

Outing the plan is stupid though.

Math is likely town. I have said this before and gotten burned, so take it with a grain of salt.
