Newbie 2004: Trash Panada Hour. Redux! GAME OVER

[Elmo TeH AzN]

I don't like the way the newbie setup has changed

Masons in 3C is icky

The more I play this setup the more I hate it realizing everyone wants a D2 solve. Which is just not fun?

With 3 players alive it takes 2 votes to lynch.

I'm probably weird for thinking that newbie games should just be a super simple open setup where PRs are determined by chance and not in a way that involves a logic table

It feels like newbies aren't learning the skills which will be super relevant in other games on site because so much of newbie games devolve into logic table setup speculation

Nauci a

was lynched day 5.

Town Wins.

Thanks for the replacements and Gibus. The OG. I'll release the dead thread and mafia PT when I get home.

[Elmo TeH AzN]

Table setup as well as POE on D2 it's turning into follow the Cop or ladder and no one wants to buckle this trend.

Whew. Is it over? It’s over. What a wild ride it’s been following this game. Glad to see the B-team rise from the ashes of the dumpster fire and make a good game out of it, was rooting for the entire cast to be replaced. When I bailed I wasn’t sure if I was playing mafia or just reenacting week-long toxic internet arguments and it only got worse from there, glad you folk showed what a proper game could be like. Thanks for taking on my torch Nauci, t’was a good effort. Still proud of being able to ride the newbie status and get virtually everyone to townread me, though I don’t know if I could’ve kept it up through later days. Can’t say if I’m inclined to do a pbf mafia game again.. but this was certainly an interesting experience.

[BBmolla]

feathers I thought you played really well! I hope you give it another go.

[BBmolla]

Also well played Nauci

[Elmo TeH AzN]

Honestly feathers try an open or even a normal. As I've stated this setup just turns into a PoE fest every time and just takes the wrong from the sails.

This game turned interesting just due to no cop or masons. Which opens the game up a lot to not play follow the leader.

[feathers]

Ah, I was under the impression that I needed to complete five Newbie games before I participated in any other setup? Perhaps I misremember. I’ll give opens/normals a gander. Also, as a side note - what is the moderation policy on MafiaScum? I’m not placing blame on you, it’s just that in most other communities I’ve been involved in FormerFish and Osuka would’ve merited warnings or bans early. Considering that FF wasn’t even going to be force replaced if not for the number of players replacing out due to him - is this kind of behavior accepted as “normal game talk” around these parts?

Subject: Ban/Restriction Announcements

Formerfish has been banned from Mafia games for (expired on 2020-06-10 16:10:00) for posting in a game after being replaced and continuing to post after being instructed by the game moderator to cease posting, as well as quoting Private moderator communication.

As a reminder, do not discuss ongoing games.

He was punished for some of his actions this game

[BBmolla]

The game is designed to cause arguing so it's a very fine line to tread between what is right and wrong

This game was far more hostile than I have traditionally experienced

[Dunnstral]

Nauci I shouldn't have self voted until we had discussed more about who the jailkeeper was

My thoughts on newbie setups: I put forward what I saw as a fairly simple fakeclaim but due to the setup it became an ultra confusing claim that people were glad that not many newbies were around for

[Elmo TeH AzN]

It's hard to judge sometimes. And this game just turned into mud slinging back and forth. FF and osuka have had their actions reported as well and that's all I can say on that.

Be happy you aren't in my dms. Anything more on it pm me and I can answer any questions you may have.

Feathers - no that's too be an SE in the newbie queue. Like if you want a fun read Open 779 just finished and was nothing like this.

Even I was confused by the claim and I'm the mod.

I once said "fuck you" to a player after they post what, to me, was a long string of condescending and patronizing and frankly sexist remarks, and got a warning immediate and have felt guilty about it for what, 2 years now?

I took a very long hiatus but I don't consider this game to be typical. People get angry and heated sometimes, but I thought FF crossed the line pretty much from the get go.

[Nauci]

I'm still feeling like a total dunce

I feel like I used every ounce of effort I could possibly produce to post and scumhunt as well as possible (this was as close as I could possibly get to posting as if I'm town, to Lilith and Dunnstral's detriment), and I thought I had figured out who the jailer was at the beginning. I felt like I was being pretty widely townread after a strong start from feathers but literally threw away dozens of hours of anxiety filled effort posting by not figuring out who the jailer is QQ

Well played Tuxedo, well played

[Nauci]

I don't even know how to play in figure games any more because almost everything I ever do as town that normally isn't at all conceivably scummy I mostly managed to replicate in this game so no one will ever believe me about anything I ever say again lmao

[Elmo TeH AzN]

And with this done. One step closer to retiring this acct.

[feathers]

Tell me about it, Nauci. I’m still actually a newbie. I feel like no question I ask or simple mistake I make is going to be seen as innocuous again heh.

Na I think your next game you will be fine

[Battle Mage]

this has been the friendliest post-game I've seen in 2020 - maybe everyone got it out of their system early?

[wavesarc]

Hi gg all, glad to have been a side character in it all. Just a quick point of clarification—even though I joked about it and the city does have its issues, I do love Pittsburgh dearly lol

[brassherald]

I called Nauci Scum. Then formerfish basically made this game miserable.

[Blair]

Aww, it's over?

I wasn't saying it in jest, Nauci - I really wanted to see you try to twist this today. (Your only real recourse would be to claim you were Cop, misunderstood the setup, and didn't want to out yourself in the mass claim because you believed we had already caught scum - a VERRRRRY tough sell but you never know if you don't try!)

You really needed to counterclaim Jailkeeper instead of VT, though.
