[Salsabil Faria]

someone explain this concept of locktown to your grandpa

back in my day...

Locking someone as a town.

Not_Mafia is generally known for lurking, not really posting anything game relevant when he does post beyond a vote, never explaining anything and quick hammering anything that reaches e-1.

i would prefer the person i asked to be the one to answer the question but thank you

If you're gonna take claim, at least make it believable

what do you think they are hoping to accomplish by pretending to be masons?

Probably confuse everyone cause that’s all they are re doing to me as I don’t understand the need to claim a role that is impossible in this setup?

You're overthinking this 'mason' thing. They are not exactly

claiming

claiming as this role isn't in this set-up, maybe they are friends or townread each other or both.

Also, real quick.

Pookie isn't doing anything to advance the game-state, bogging it down, and is looking active.

That's a pro-scum move imo.

How many open set-up games you played before? These are different from other mafia games imo and I don't think (yet)

PookyTheMagicalBear

's funnier gameplay style is actually AI here.

town doesn't come out of the gate excited about being town, even if they like playing town. especially since i was extremely excited to play this game but my excitement waned when the thread was opened 24 hours after mafia was done picking roles. scum come out excited because their nerves are higher so they're more likely to be agitated or bombastic with their entry. at least, that's what i believe. hence the nervous energy behind implosion's "hello!!!!!" and "wow!!!!!" posts.

thus endeth the lesson. now that i explained it i expect a flurry of implosion votes.

There's three people "scumreading" me and I've barely posted

You guys can go ahead and town lock me

Bad post.

Tempted to flip a coin between Banjo Kapooie and hyper tunnel one of them to break them up

Who are they?

No one actively inhibited anything.

I don't really think that's true. I saw several instances of shitpost responses to serious posts, encouraging shitposting, and just generally spamming up the thread. This makes it harder for people to actually play seriously.

It probably wasn't on purpose. But it's still annoying.

I'm enjoying btw. These are fun posts to me and made me laugh sometimes while reading.

My current inclinations are something like... STD > Pooky > S_S > [everyone else] > (but not really meaningfully) Mini, Dunn.

This is your townreads?

clever girl

but in response to your i stand by what i said, i've done that as scum before.

[Save The Dragons]

I think you better take the time to go over the case with your client.

She's hanging on a knife's edge at this point.

She has to pay me first. As a commonly demonized Law and Order type defense attorney, I'm only in it for the money.

[Battle Mage]

ehhhh it's still dayphase?

[Save The Dragons]

not mafia was already on artemiana when he "hammered"

[PenguinPower]

It's a typical nm thing to do

[implosion]

This is your townreads?

The first people are townreads, the last couple are weak scumreads.

[implosion]

Lightly townreading salsabil's catchup.

I don't especially like the Artemiana wagon but I am getting tired of waiting for her to do something, mostly because I still think when she does it'll be relatively fruitful to read off of.

[implosion]

I also am lightly townreading Not_Mafia.

[Almost50]

Now you know the answer to your previous question. I did count scipio's vote. THAT is why I needed to explain that I did count.

[Battle Mage]

not mafia was already on artemiana when he "hammered"

yeah i know, but it's been hours since then and it doesn't look like the player is going to claim or anything.

[Battle Mage]

doesnt make sense. why would you thinking she will post something valuable be the justification for potentially joining her wagon (or at least, reducing your opposition to it, as implied)?

[Almost50]

Here's a

serious

take: I voted Artemiana as meme/joke, but now I do seriously SR her. Going quiet when @L-1 is the scum response to being wagoned "for no reason" and she is counting on it dissolving soon as people grow bored of waiting. That is usually the case on D1. Scum expect wagons to shift off them if they don't talk much because Town will get cold feet yeeting a silent slot so early. My vote in cemented.

ja

also quick unopposed wagons like this flip scum more often than your average wagon

and to be clear, the player in question didn't even go quiet at E-1, it was more like, from the first vote, instant shut-down.

[implosion]

be the justification for potentially joining her wagon

Wasn't trying to imply that it would be. I don't intend to ever join it or hammer in this game, at least not for at least like 4 more RL days or so.

, at least not for at least like 4 more RL days or so.

bold is a strong assertion. Considering your take on the wagon a few posts ago was a fairly cautious "I don't especially like [it]", and your subsequent phrasing in post 533 sounded like you were paving the way for a vote (citing your frustration with the player not being here).

can you tell me what you're planning to do in that 4 RL days?

[Something_Smart]

and to be clear, the player in question didn't even go quiet at E-1, it was more like, from the first vote, instant shut-down.

She was V/LA.

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

this is an awful long vacation for her Majesty to take

[Battle Mage]

and to be clear, the player in question didn't even go quiet at E-1, it was more like, from the first vote, instant shut-down.

She was V/LA.

nah, she posted and said she didn't wanna post anymore because she felt disrespected at getting voted or something.

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

yea she said it was rude for us to vote for her or something

was some straight out of Downton Abbey nonsense

like we peasants aren't allowed to look at the nobility or something

[Something_Smart]

nah, she posted and said she didn't wanna post anymore because she felt disrespected at getting voted or something.

That is definitely not what happened.

[Battle Mage]

suspect I'm a minority of 1, but I laughed hard at the Downton Abbey reference.

[Battle Mage]

That is definitely not what happened.

it is. gotta read the game like me and pooky.

or, just for fun, you can tell me what you imagine happened instead?

[Battle Mage]

Its not only easy to wagon someone who is V/LA but extremely disrespectful

I'm probably going to be gone for an additional 24 hours so I don't chew out everyone who is/was on my wagon.

just to save Something Smart from going back and re-reading, or wasting pages being wrong.
