I don't like dying before I can actually make an impact on the game. I have zero impact if I die day 1 bc of the way I play mafia. Though I don't understand. Why even interact with me if you are just gonna be another stubborn players that's gonna SR me? Plus I'm really disappointed you can't tell this is my town game considering you have straight up PLAYED with town me before

So noraa thinks that scroll= instaded

Yes or yes?

I personally think Tayl0rs attack on LLD is 100% in bad faith and Tayl0r just wants to see if she has the chutzpah to derail the thing irrespective of either of their alignments

I may or may not be personally biased

I find this extra hilarious because this is in the OP and the literal reason she's being strung up is not reading the OP

murdercat 1247 bad. setting up isis slot on nora townflip. 1249 is trying to convince nora to lie down and accept death and while that's valid given the setup, that's usually a scum thing i think

Show of hands: who believes Hopkirk's posting restriction story?

He randomly fakes various posting restrictions (like even in normals)
Idk what the story is but i'd say it's nai

I thought it was related to that speakeasy thread about gimmicks.

Yeah, I didn't think it was AI, I just thought it was fake.

When I was last active as a player I don't think he was doing post restrictions. Or I missed games where he did them.

the fact that he's trying to shoehorn in shelly as a townread is concerning. this being nightless means scumteam probably wants to defend each other rather than distance. was a very soft touch there

starting to think this setup is brutal for scum, one townie gets a scumread on you you're in trouble, if you push a miscurse on someone and they omgus you you're toast

don't like hopkirk's stuff after he drops the post restriction. fidget's 1665 is blah, drawing connections with adorable to noraa that are just implausible. dislike a lot of her reads too. noraa is kind of obvtown from that readslist and later posts.

through 68:

town reads (strongest -> weakest):
pooky, MUSH, bell, LLD, theta alpine, noraa, adorable, taylor, Vaxkiller, toogeloo, Flea, fidget, Titus
null:
gloria cleary, lapsa
scum reads (strongest -> weakest):
shellyc, unowen, hopkirk, MURDERCAT, Zdenek

I'd be wagoning the everliving bejesus out of shellyc with bell rn

Fuckin avenger is back

And yeah, popcorn type mafia games are always hard for scum due to the inability to influence the game without repercussion. In normal games you push miselims and shrug and go welp when they flip. Here, great chance to get shot in the face and 1v1'd.

Almost the only way you CAN play is by going at least a little aggro, IMO. Slowly sidestepping onto a wagon will almost always get you caught because town looks for precisely that in these scenarios. Given the cooldown time of the curses (2 days + existing timer) if your push on person X looks legit then town will take your side and try to talk the miselim out of shooting you. It's a knife's edge to walk, to be sure.

a lot of hopkirk's takes actually aren't bad but bell in his poe is real bad. also hate the way he is now putting nora toward town but says she has to die anyway

A lot of posturing in his stances. Not a fan of his ever changing tone/seriousness either.

I liked him better when he rhymed.
