~Maki
Mastina's claim is anti-town but NAI?...

Also, claiming is both a blessing and hindrance to everyone, regardless of their alignment. I doubt any of us have normal roles or abilities, and I don't know if many have synergy with another.

i'm a miller. i'll investigate as The End. thought about waiting until after pregame but there's really no reason not to claim now.
I feel more good about this claim than uneasy. I've been a Miller before, and I know personally, claiming that early is most helpful to the town.

So while flavor or mechanics do not reflect alignment here; I like what I'm seeing from
Chara
.
In post 113, Chara wrote:hey, let's everybody all claim how they get mana! that's a great idea.
To my understanding, I have a

way of acquiring mana. But primarily, two ways:

1)
Not using my Planeswalker ability

2)
I target someone with my Planeswalker ability. For 2 phases, I gain Mana the same way they would, and I gain their abilities. I can only do this once per dayphase.

I'm literally a temporary copy-cat.

No response about Mastina's claim, though? ...Because it's affected by votes based on what she's stated.

I don't think so?

At most, my abilities wouldn't be original or stagnant ones. I'm not expecting other people to claim this early, especially after mine.

I figured if I claimed and stated that then it would avoid confusion later in the game when abilities and roles would likely be discussed.

this is my last, desperate call into an uncaring universe: please stop claiming, everyone.
Good thing I haven’t claimed then. :) Although this brings back memories. Please tell me I wasn’t townreading it too soon? I townread everything before this post.
Claiming also informs town, I'll add.

Also,
OnTheMark
, you state that claiming is bad in a post after this, but you seem happy that you didn't claim before
Chara
said not to.

Were you going to claim?

I agree with Chara’s point even though something pinged me. Your claim gives me scum pings too. Don’t know why yet. Since your claim is out there can you expand more on why you claimed?
1)
Me claiming would definitely strike conversation and get reads going, especially in engaging me. I think it progressed the game a bit, and seeing people's reactions helped me start forming my own reads.

Plus, conversation now could be referenced later to help game solve.

2)
My ability is both changing and replaceable, so I didn't see a huge reason to stay quiet about it in the first place.

Once I understood how it worked, I thought making it clear would help dissolve uncertainty later in the game. Furthermore, even though I expected people not to claim - specifically massclaim like what
Chara
didn't want, I wanted to see if anyone would.

I'll have another reason to give if I'm not mislynched or NKed.

I also might be forgetting a reasoning, honestly. Claiming sounded much better in my head.
In post 274, OnTheMark wrote:Yeah. It’s a tactic I have seen from good scum. State the truth (claiming is a bad idea) in an emotional way but not delve into why they claimed. I have seen it way too many times and it made me flash to that. You’re probably still town but I think I am pinged by it not digging deeper. Does this make sense?
Did anything about my claim post come across to you as emotional? .________.
In post 278, OnTheMark wrote:
In post 276, Chara wrote:ah, i thought you were making a vague meta point.
yes, that makes sense.

Taly did explain why they claimed, though.

pedit: i wouldn't really feel strongly about it. Taly hasn't done anything to be townread for.
Taly gave a reason yes.

However it feels manufactured.

Specifically because they have two short posts one of which claiming confusion so they had read. So if they were confused about your original post and saw no one was claiming why didn’t they ask you how you felt or try to ascertain what was going on. By asking Taly why I can see if the slot was not reading as indicated before or they were and chose to delay posting content.
To be honest, I couldn't tell how serious
Chara
was when I ISOed him, but even without his posts, I was waffling on whether or not to claim. I decided to claim based on reasoning above.
In post 279, OnTheMark wrote:Like they had to have read to respond to later posts but at the same time are confused yet never ask a single question? It feels newb scum to me but they could be newb town. I want help in sorting Taly.

Hi Random. Hope to hear from Shiro soon.
I wouldn't call myself a noob. This is my 2nd game in 2 years, but I'm not new to Mafia.

Also, what are your reads at the moment?
In post 280, OnTheMark wrote:Furthermore notice how your name is in bold?

I’d take a bet that Taly is going to claim copy catting your abilities to get out of bad check.

Taly, care to prove me wrong and never copycat Chara?
You're quick to make assumptions based off little information.

1)
Read my other game posts. I
ALWAYS
bold a player's full name when I reference them. It means absolutely nothing. Bolding helps me organize my posts so I don't forget something when I'm typing them, and when I'm reading through a thread, having something in bold catches my attention.

I want people to know I'm mentioning them, because they're relevant to my posts.

2)
I have a loose strategy for how I'll use my ability. If I learn something that could help Town later on, I'd probably let someone know if I'm targeting them. If I'm uncertain about a claim, or a specific mechanic on someone is noted, then I may target for clarity.

3)
What gives you the impression I'd copycat
Chara
? Also, what makes me scum if I did target him?

4)
You're telling me to promise to never use my ability on someone I have a vague read on at the moment. I don't get the defense on
Chara
here. Why is it wrong for me to use my ability in the first place?
In post 295, Maid Cafe wrote:
In post 263, Taly wrote:Mastina's claim is anti-town but NAI?...
Yes, why do you say it like it's not? You can do anti town actions with good intent in mid or you can just be scum who did something anti town the overall thing is anti town I believe her emotions were genuine when she said her power was "game breaking" for scum or town? We don't know. Also how the fuck do people have so many reads. Oh the fact I don't have Chara as obv town yet makes it highly likely their scum btw but take that with a grain of salt
~Maki
I usually associate the word "anti-town" with "scum".

And I asked that because I wanted you to elaborate on your view with them because I wasn't sure about that when I ISOed you yesterday.

Is your read on
Chara
based on meta?
In post 303, Reasonably Rational wrote:So, Taly claimed a high utility scum role. That eh...makes me torn, for obvious reasons. I get that the roles were made before alignments were assigned, but the act of claiming such a role is *much* better for scum than town(since Taly just outed an investigative and can no longer catch scum lying using their role).

:-/

Also, haven't heard from Drixx. :(

-Cerb
I can still catch people lying.

Why are you saying that my claim is a high-utility scum role? Roles =/= alignments here.
In post 305, OnTheMark wrote:I wish people would actually talk with me instead of at me.

And I think one of Taly or RR is scum. Not necessarily an either or just at least one. I don’t like what Cerb did there.

I also wish people would explain Tabor to me and talk about how Taly doesn’t interact with recent stuff.
I'll talk to you.

But why is
ReasonablyRational
? Was it because he didn't have a set stance on it?
In post 317, OnTheMark wrote:The claim is bad imho for two reasons.
1) Investigative (good point)
2) Taly has demonstrated reading in which no one claimed and then so Taly would see the thread ignored it or read it as a joke yet hasn’t read the thread to be confused. Taly can’t have read and not read the thread. That is where I am confused.
1)
Last night when I said I was confused about the conversation, , I was referring to the back-and-forth that you and
Maid Cafe
because I skimmed through it and I should've been more clear about my confusion.

2)
This is directed to
Maid Cafe
as well, I couldn't respond too quickly after my claim post earlier today because I'm a full-time college student.

My tires went flat earlier, and I had classes. So this is the first time today, other than getting out of bed this morning, where I had time to read the thread and further elaborate on my thought process.

~~~

I'll do some rereading and do an ISO or two later tonight or tomorrow morning.

CLAIM:
Alisae
and I had our roles CHANGED. We have this odd dual role:


Pacificist: ((What We Don't Have Right Now))
- You must sign ALL hydra posts. EACH hydra head has their OWN vote.

Genocide: ((What We're Plagued With))
- The
LOWER
posting head, is the
ONLY
head that can post.
My vote is worth HALF A NORMAL VOTE.


As of right now, I am the
ONLY
head to post
AT ALL
. Any and all post's by
Alisae
will be removed. I have gotten mod-confirmation that I can post from my MAIN account. This happened because
Alisae
had more posts than I do.

Remember, I am
Taly
, but I am playing as
PURPLE HEART
.

I have no clue what else has or may have happened.
Alisae
and I were going to use
Learn From The Past
; a spellcard that allowed us see
ALL
spells that were used that night. Now, we cannot continue with that plan. It would cost
1 BLUE mana, and 2 of any other color to cast.


We also had 2 other spells:
- (Enchantment) Quiet Contemplation:
After we use a non-Creature card in conjunction with this; this allowed us to remove ANY and ALL voting abilities from a creature in play. It would've costed us
1 BLUE mana, and 2 of any other color to cast.

- (Creature) Clever Impersonator:
We used this on a Spell Card in play, and we copy that spell for own use. It would've costed us
2 BLUE mana, or 2 of any other color to cast.


If we do not use our copy abilities, we gain 2 White Mana, and 1 Blue Mana.


I'm 100% certain that scum powerplayed that quintuple vote on a creature to hammer
Shining Dreamers
, TO scumpaint the people and hydra's on the wagon.

OnTheMark's
death, followed by our conflict late D1 solidifies this to me. Furthermore,
Alisae
and I believe that it's possible
OnTheMark
was killed for knowing who played that artifact.

Please, I'm asking everyone to be patient with me. There's 2 heads, and I'm having to speak for both of us. If anyone has any questions, I'll gladly answer, but I'm filtering information through two mediums while formulating my own.

My power went out!!! Im on Mobile.

Alisae: Our roles aren't permanent and are always everchanging due to the "THAT'S THE EXPRESSION OF SOMEONE WHO'S DIED TWICE IN A ROW." Mechanic. This is the affects of that mechanic, so we are likely not keeping our roles, hence why we should massclaim our MtG roles and our Undertale roles, we are likely not keeping these roles.Our flavor for MtG is Narset Transcendant and our flavor for Undertale for Pacafist is Dogamy & Dogressa. Our flavor for Genocide is just Dogamy

OnTheMark had White and Blue mana JUST LIKE US.

There's NO reason NOT to claim!! This mechanic was stated in POST 8.

Chara, my posts are directed at everyone. But I think Alise wanted you to see that.

I'm vaguely skimming the thread atm as I have to let all of you know this info

Cerb I am sorry you want to replace out then. I liked playing eith you

Alisae: This makes me him locktown. It's understandable after plans and plans are ruined.

Honestly, I'm so much more invested in this game.

You're trying to alter the interpretation of my thoughts and reasonings because:

You're saying I'm pissed when I'm not.
2)
You're using exaggerated language to prove your points.
3)
You're not engaging on why you think massclaiming is bad, and are pushing it away by saying

This specifically
This is directed to everyone, too.


1)
Alisae
and I have talked, and said that MtG claims are much better than Undertale claims right now. Our MtG roles no longer apply in the game. So why not claim that at least? It gives perspective.

2)
Claims now may influence future claims pre and post flips. The information for town outweighs potential risks to individuals. At the very least, people know the direction and mindset of what people are doing.

3)
Our roles now are going to change. It's fully elaborated in the mechanics. There's no reason not to claim at some point, and withholding information BENEFITS scum because they have information that townies don't.
In post 3210, Reasonably Rational wrote:I've never replaced out of a game, and Varsoon assures me that I will enjoy the setup as a whole, even if things aren't as I expected.

Because of this, there is now a non-zero, rather than zero, percent chance of me staying in this game.

I'm still really unhappy and don't actually want to play right now, but we'll see.

Plus,

I don't see any MtG claims today, nor do I see any point in doing so. We could wind up back at MTG.

~Titus
I highly, HIGHLY doubt we will wind back up at MtG.
Alisae
expresses the same sentiment.

Alisae:

A.
Varsoon
said he has wanted to attempt to mod multiple setups in one before, so he's like to make other setups appear
B.
If we could wind up in MtG V might have kept those mechanics up

Also,
Alisae
says I cannot be replaced, not sure about her reasoning. Not like I'm going to stop activity now, though.

We both want to see a
Pacifist
massclaim. Read my claim post at the beginning of this day for what I'm referring to.

Yeah, claim.
Reasonably Rational wrote:Okay, so nothings changed from the rules for the M:tG setup as far as the likelihood of roles changing etc is concerned.

Considering nobody previously brought up the possibility of things changing this way, even those who have stated they had prior knowledge of Varsoon floating a similar idea to this before, everyone who now suddenly believes we should mass claim(read, the PH slot), needs to explain what the difference is between yesterday and today, because that particular mechanic certainly isn't different, it's just reflavored.

In Varsoon's defense, he told us about the importance of flavor if claimed in this game. Flavor =/= Alignment, -COLOR- is apart of flavor and works toward helping create knowledge about the game.

This is why claims are important. It's vital, to a degree, on understanding the progression of the game and people's motivations by this.

In post 8, Varsoon wrote:Also, I want to reiterate this from the signup thread:
Do not expect that all the Spell Cards in this game reflect their real-game counterparts.
I've mostly tried to render the Magic the Gathering mechanics as Mafia mechanics, but some spells may have different mana costs, type, or effect than what you expect.
In short, flavor knowledge will not help you solve this game unless players claim their spell card flavors and their spell card flavors happen to match the real card flavors.
Also, as a very important heads up, a large part of this game design will include players gaining advantage over others if they have knowledge of the setup flavor.
For that reason, claiming flavor may have an actual mechanical detriment to your win condition.
Finally, Flavor has no bearing on alignment. All alignments were generated AFTER roles were created.

TL;DR: Flavor can, to an extent, be gamed, but only IF CLAIMED. Flavor =/= Alignment.

If you have any flavor questions, feel free to ask in this thread or via PM.
Honestly, I don't quite get the adverse reaction to the gamestate changing. I feel like we were hinted this.

In post 3218, Maid Cafe wrote:Taly if you post 100 more times and overtake alisae do you lose your ability to post?
The Genocide Role does not state this.

~Titus
Alisae
and I do not think we will return to MtG set-up. This does not sound like a
Varsoon
way of doing things.

Plus, it's possible that scum has CONTROL on the plane shifts, it may be limited, but it's possible.

Claiming is NOT for set-up spec. It is purely to weed out town motivations and scum motivations.

At LEAST claim MtG roles.

I could guess someone's color identity and if I got it right I would get one blue mana, up to four times a day. I believe brass while he was around checked Taly with pure blue and came up negative, and after brass left I checked Maid Cafe for White only and White/Green on Micc, and near end of the day I checked RR for Blue/White, all three of mine also came up negative. My night ability is I track up to four players and if all of them act I get two white mana. I targeted Chara, Maid Cafe, Bronya, and Almost50, trying to basically get a good baseline for future uses on who might have actions, and I got no action on all of them. So all of them are cleared from last night's kill I guess, and that can't be the scumteam.
Explain why you tracked who you tracked.

Spoiler: My Posting Habits, and How That's Fucked Right Now
By myself, I have a system where I typically make 1-2 heavy-content posts in my games per day.

In this hydra, it's becoming more like a bunch of conversational posts, until I say
"I have life stuff, bye for a few hours."
Specifically since I'm the one posting for us.

This is usually NAI for me.

Since my play right now is different than usual, I wanted to make this distinction. I will say
Town-Taly
is all about communication and
Scum-Taly
diverts it away from himself.

Becasue this is meta-talk in a sense, I fully welcome someone talking to me about this, and asking about my games. I'm happy to send links.

Venmar wrote:that face when taly starts crumbling down your alisae townread

taly's push on gamma makes me hesitate. feels like an agenda-pushed read, taly's really just yelling gamma down for refusing to agree to a massclaim, which advocating for as he is here reads as super awkward since i don't think anyone here really knows what is going on and taly is giving me the impression that he somehow does?

taly can you lay out for me where alisae sits on the gamma read
Literally,
Alisae

We

BOTH
believe that MtG claims are highly effective right now.

You should have shut up until everyone spoke if you wanted to get more information and people weren't cooperating, instead of just saying that to what is effectively no benefit.

Yes, you might get some reactions, but it would be way stronger to specifically push people you suspect of being teammates of your confirmed scum to condemn said scum, to either strengthen or weaken your scumread on them, at the least.

Now you can't do that nearly as effectively.

You do know
Maid Cafe
was also referencing you when she was talking about town not cooperating, right?

Please, come back when you're more willing to game solve. :/

If you have two guilties, Cerb is correct that you should have waited. Since you did not, I'd recommend creating two pools that contain your guilties (could be 1 1 or 0 2) to test reactions on lynching.

I can see the value in doing this, but that could paint townplayers unfavorably and create WIFOM. Can you explain this a bit more?

Also, I don't like how

@Maid, I'll have my hydra partner do more detail on each name in the list.
Both Alisae and I agree with this method in helping force associatives.

But the hesitation, is that if we don't lynch soon, abilities will be triggered and that could cause more issues.

That's why she wants me to to help out guilties, and why claiming MtG roles now is what I'm pushing.

I did not have a lie detect, and as I previously stated, my ability did not generate mana.

@Taly: I'm well aware that I'm among those they found uncooperative, which is immaterial to the salience of my point that there were plenty of people who hadn't spoken yet, who could easily be among those who'd be willing to follow their lead.

Alisae, I'm also reading the mechanics post, clearly, and they don't support the suppositions you're making, in the context of the previous mechanics posts.

-Cerb
Elaborate on your view of the mechanics post.
Maid Cafe wrote:So 15 minutes before the day ended yesterday we were put into a hood with the Baku slot. Which I don't think is a coincidence given how short 15 minutes is.

We think that putting us in a hood was a requirement for Baku to get mana, kinda like how Micc needed to grant tokens in order to gain mana so Baku added us to a hood in order to cast the U/G sword to quick hammer SD.

They probably didn't have much of a regard for how obvious that was because we were probably supposed to die but since Mathblade got a guilty on them they didn't have the ability to kill us.

Also Baku claimed there role was U/G which is the exact color of the sword and by play they are being kinda evasive in regards to the thread so they aren't really town by play either.

~B
This and are reaffirming a lot of me and
Alisae's
scumreads.

Maid Cafe, if you vote on the Baku-Munna Wagon, I
WILL
follow. Alisae has permitted be to do this under that condition.

Also, Alisae agrees with your readslist, but still thinks Creature is town.
I'd also say to move Nancy town a tier.
I don't know about Almost50.

3) Visiting power equals anything that can be tracked. If I'd suspected someone of of having one and figured they's use it I'd likely have tracked only them to get my 2 white mana. But since I had no ideas there I just figured it would be smarter to track the max and look to get results to use on later nights to gain mana.

Why track PR reads and not scumreads?
2)
How would claims have changed your targets?

That last part is why he won't answer your questions. You can always ask though. ^^ I just already did effectively, so, *shrug*.

I'm sorry that you feel this way, but there may have been miscommunication here.

That's why I posed an in-thread question, because

Because I wanted the mana, tracker is actually more useful lategame. Claims would have changed my targets by making me go for them specifically. I always get 2 mana if I get them all right or none if any are wrong, but I had no leads so I wanted to get as many leads as possible.
I still don't get tracking PR reads over scumreads. From the perspective on D1, everyone likely had some form of role that could be used. What "leads" were you hoping to find?

so let me say where i'm at right now with this game; here's where i'm at: i'm kind of lost. my #3272 came from a point of frustration based on the game changing flavours, and after recollection i'm actually still fine with alisae's slot, though i'm still definitely not happy with pushing a massclaim this early.

i find myself agreeing, yet being at conflict with my townreads. i think maid cafe and purple heart are solving this game, but i disagree with some of their reads that they are pushing hard right now, and by reads i really just mean the singular read of gamma. i am purely, and entirely, solely townreading gamma off gut. im definitely not qualified to make this read since my meta with gamma isn't THAT long, and i had troubles reading him in some games, but my honest to god, twitch, blind gut reaction to his posting here is that he is town. i still think gamma's posting is just like what i remembered it to be from valentines mafia, and i also townread gamma's frustration and exasperation since it's again something i associate with his town-range.

that said:

i think this is a good place to start. im still not sold on the micc slot, i still think micc's play was genuine though nacy drew is nulling the slot up by being, well, absent, though i'm still not ready to lynch the slot. i can definitely get behind baku and almost50 though since i think a50 is missing the direction and purpose i associate with his townplay, his play just feels apathetic and meandering, and my impression of baku's play as-so-far is just doing some very wolfy popins and doing some scummy posturing (their positioning regarding chara's claim mainly comes to mind).

My approach to this role-mechanic and gamestate is being edited right now. I feel like I've been wallpaper. Changing my avvy was to make a satirical joke on the playerlist's response to this hydra, and me playing for 2 people at the moment.

I reread the thread a bit, and I feel like I'm having differing opinions from my other head, and from our collective townreads. :( And, once again, my townreads are better articulated than my scumreads. Which I don't like.

I cannot see
Almost50's
recent posts come from scum-faking AtE. He also complied with my question that
Alisae
in-part wanted me to pose. This makes me willing to think that his claims and statements so far were either true or genuine. I will say, I don't quite know why he's feeling so charged in this game, but my gut says it's town and I'm not going to waffle here right now.

I want
Maid Cafe
and any other scumreading
Almost50
to further explain that read to me, if they still have it.

I also second this:
In post 3448, Almost50 wrote:@THE MYSTERY VOTE THIEF OF YESTERDAY: PLEASE AT LEAST CLAIM THAT ACTION. If Ali's assumption we won't go back to that same role again is true then there's absolutely no hard in setting things straight. Thanks in advance.
Spoiler: Why Claiming MtG Is A Great Idea Right Now
Please claim MtG and/or Pacifist Role. is the Pacifist role.


Reference for any reasons that aren't stated here.

1)
Our roles are changing consistently. Why even hold back something if we aren't going to keep it? Claims weed out motivations and can help explain people's pushes in a previous dayphase.

2)
Claiming also helps the possibility of catching someone lying about a claim. Right now, half of our discussions and pushes are based on claims without fully stated information. This prevents town from accurately creating a viable plan or understanding of how to effectively work with their roles.

3)
I also get the impression that a lot of people have muddled the waters of some claims or haven't fully understood the effects of them. Having dialogue about roles prevents scum from exacerbating this.

4)
The argument that scum can negate it is extremely flimsy here. Logistically, role-claiming and having a plan to use roles are in towns favor. This is more for current-role claiming, but it serves a purpose to out scum-motivated behaviors later in the game.

5)
AT LEAST, claiming a no-longer-used role benefits town due to an influx of information and clarity. Even if we DO return to the MtG setup,
((which I think is extremely unlikely))
it is common knowledge of what somebody could do, and in this scenario, where things like spellcards can flip the game around, this information is ESSENTIAL.

6)
Flavor is important here. Even if it doesn't mean what our alignments, it directly impacts the mechanics of this game.


I'd like for
Maid Cafe
to out their guilties, I trust their role, and I think their hesitation to out them at the moment while pushing a wagon is more likely coming from town. I know
Alisae
views her as locktown, and I can see that.


I also townread
Broyna Zaychik
. I don't quite get the suspicion there. I'm more familiar with
Titus'
game and I can see her wanting to weigh out potential realities and outing scum motivations as town from her , and none of
Kiana's
posts have stuck out to me as scum, specifically the revote on
Baku
, and her insistence to align with her other head.

Spoiler: Thoughts on Gamma + Reply To Him
I'm becoming conflicted with
Gamma
,
Alisae
is sure this is scum.
Maid Cafe
believes this is scum to my understanding, and while I do a somewhat-weak-scumread on this slot, my gut is telling me to shift focus.
Alisae
wants me to sheep
Bee
, and I'm still not 100% on either path.

It's another reason why I'm frustrated with this game and several players right now. :?

I don't like how I was made out to be pissy here.

I don't think scattershot on 4 people for tracking is very useful here? Especially since he was looking for PR reads and not scumreads? , even if it was to get mana, I don't think the information he says he has helps enlighten his view or reads.

Instead of him continuing to reply to quotes, I'd like for him to actually "catch up" with this game and make more detailed posts on his view.

Yeah, their interactions with OTM on the few pages I read, given OTM was nightkilled, don't really reflect that well on them imo
Also, can you explain how it doesn't reflect well on them?

this game feels complete even though it technically didnt finish

the team was pegged D2 - if you counted non in-thread discussions between townies, town was on/off cohesive

This was my first return game in over 2 years of Mafia; so I forgot how people typically operate in this game, and that's what led to multiple moments of ignorance on my part.

You're also the second person I've ever hydra'd with
Ali


I wouldn't play the exact same way I did here in another Role Madness game.
