This game is filled with lies, you are going to have a bad time

Only when I'm mafia. and usually only irl, because my face looks guilty. online my main problem as maf is that I give up too easy since the most logical answer is that I'm maf. I kind of feel like I hit a wall.

Are you mafia gene?

Yessiree, what do you think of Bacde's vote?

I guess I don't really feel that it should be dignified with a response. since it, too, was not made in seriousness. and was just trying to spark some discussion which would inevitably be pointless because there is nothing of any worth to say in response to someone not being serious.

It's not anyone would say "I think you're maf for voting for someone you think is town." because even they know the vote was not to be taken seriously.

That only works on me irl.

That was actually what I wanted to ask too, but then I thought I'd want to hear from more people.

oh snaps

VOTE: gene

this is a real vote, and I no longer have a slight townread on gene

I was just something I came up with in the shower, I didn't expect that to do anything, just a opener.

What do you think about my vote for gene?

Do you think its likely that a discussion of statistics will draw an alignment-indicative reaction from a player?

about yessiree's statistical thing.....
I personally love statistics as well (well, I've only taken one class on it). However, imo, they really only work when you have a large sample size. 100 or larger preferably. Our sample size is 9. so, statistics don't really work on this level. because it's not hard for us to be that rare case scenario where two of the SE are mafia. So I don't think we can use statistics to push a lynch on the IC. But, if you were maf, that would be a good plan, because you could very logically and rationally push a lynch on the IC who you would know was not maf this time. and it wouldn't even matter if you were wrong, because statistically you were right.

omg, you can't possibly have an actual scumread already on barely page 2. but I like that you're actually trying to be serious this time because it makes me want to engage.

I also now have a scumread on gene. He seems happiest engaging in theory discussion rather than repeated requests to engage with specific events in this game.

what? no one has asked me anything specifically?

@Bcade

THe reason I'm not voting for gene is because I want to hear from more people first.

What I think for your vote:
If you are town, then it's good pressure.
If you are scum, then it's a good way to show everyone you are scum-hunting.
Either way I can't jump to conclusions right now.

As for the last question, it was just some random stuff I came up with in the shower.

are you talking about the "are you mafia" thing. yeah, that doesn't count, that wasn't serious.

This feels like a scum slip. The easy answer was no, regardless of alignment. This was not a town answer because its not supposed to work if you were town, by saying that "it doesnt work this time" it implies you as scum

VOTE: gene

And just like that, were out of RVS

I haven't seen you answer this despite more than one of us ask you about it.

In post 9, ChannelDelibird wrote:So, gene, why did you refuse to CONFESS?

I'm a pretty serious person. I rarely ever joke around. very logical. a part of that makes me a really bad liar. but also just a really unfunny person. So my point is, I tend to ignore unseriousness like unserious questions.

Hmmm............

Meh, not a scum tell for me, newbies usually do this.

Bacde's vote? Seems like something Bacde would normally do. Its there to spark discussion.

Don't I have like 3 votes on me now? I'm flattered by all this attention.
It's interestingly putting a lot of pressure on me, though. Like, it's impossible for me to scumhunt in this current moment because I'm so flustered about how to make myself not seem like mafia to you all.

Also, I think simply saying "no" to that question is too easy. even maf can do that. Therefore, I don't think any answer to that question, even if it's "yes" can actually give anyone any real information. it's just a dumb question.

If youre town, you dont need to seem like youre not mafia gene.

Did you just put him at L-1? This seems, opportunistic.
