VOTE: Frozen Angel

It has been a long time.

do I know you
you and reiuji are the only ones I haven't played with I think

[Gamma Emerald]

Hm. The game thread hasn't gotten off to a particularly quick start, so I'll be a little more verbose with my opening post.

If I skimmed the player list correctly, I have played with eight of you before, but I doubt many of you know or remember my meta at all, so I'll introduce myself and ask a few questions in the process.

Hi! I'm Eagle. I'm an outed alt, but I ask that if you know who I am not to say, because that will make the game more exciting for me. I've been playing forum mafia on and off for around six years now and I think I was a lot better two years ago than I am right now. Oh well, I'll get back into it.

Here's a few questions that I'll be disappointed if I'm the only one to answer.

1. How comfortable do you feel playing town/scum?

2. What are you good at, what aren't you good at?

3. What part of playing mafia is most natural to you?

4. What is one thing about the current meta that you think should be changed?

5. How well do you know the other people in this game, and how excited are you to play?

1. I love playing town. I'm very comfortable with it. I am very bad at rolling mafia. I don't think I've ever had a game where I wasn't caught particularly quickly.

2. One thing I've gotten significantly better at over the years (although I still make mistakes sometimes) is judging myself to see when I am tunneling town. I am very bad, however, at handling emotional appeals.

3. I love RVS. It's one of my favorite stages of the game because everything is so awkward and chaotic, and I thrive in it. My goal, however, is to get out of RVS as quickly as possible. Usually that includes swallowing a wagon on myself, which is one thing I've gotten good at. I very much expect to be one of the wagons going out of RVS, especially with how awkward my writing here is coming across, and I don't particularly mind. However, my most natural state is when I get the freedom out of RVS to really start pushing people and put a little basis behind my shove.

4. I read a couple of the more recent games before this one started, and I have noticed that sheeping is a thing that people actually do now (I don't remember this ever being acceptable in the past). In addition, players are accepted as bad town very easily, and players who are almost guaranteed to lose the game in lylo for their anti-town game all game are allowed to go there. I think being lax on anti-town behavior and encouraging group think methods of play like sheeping should be discouraged, as priority number two.

5. Like I've said before, I have played with eight people here, I think. I'm very excited to play. This feels like it could be the next YCBA IV. I've got so much nostalgia that I've got this account on mafBlack for old times' sake.

Anyone who does RQS can't be a bad person.

1: Generally I'm more comfortable as town but with a good scumteam to work with I'm more comfortable as scum. I just feel like scum player quality is kinda low here, ngl
2: I'm good at being towny sometimes as well as making decent reads. Not so good at convincing others to follow me.
3: Probably sorting. I don't have a fully honed method I stick to but instead like using anything I feel is effective. I feel like I've developed a few tells of varying value myself in fact.
4: Probably mechanical over-reliance.
5: Have played with all but Reiuji and Eagle for sure. btw Eagle if you tell me I've played with you I highly doubt I'd be able to suss out who you are.
@DT: no idea, is that actually a rule??? If so I might be replacing day 1 because I've sorta lost interest in mafia gradually thanks to other hobbies taking over, reducing my post frequency.

[Gamma Emerald]

is lyncanfire transcend?

no
I prolly wouldn't play with him if he was after what Transcend did (he actually did two things, one of which wasn't exactly his fault the other definitely was)

[Gamma Emerald]

Why GE?

It has been a long time.

Didn't we just finish Merchant's Daughter not too long ago?

[Gamma Emerald]

that was towards Eagle but I think he knows that.

I do.

Hello

I've never played with most of you.

VOTE: Alisae
First person on the list I haven't played with.

Let's have a relaxing discussion on why voting Frozen Angel or Gamma Emerald are good ideas right now, though I approve of the attitude.

Why me and FA? Feels like you drew names out of a hat.

[Gamma Emerald]

its not even phrasing of what your saying, though it is kinda awkward.
the fact you care so much about where people are voting on the first few pages of the game is what irks me

def agreed

[Gamma Emerald]

Okay sorry. I'll tell you after the game DT.

what kind of fuckery is this

[Gamma Emerald]

@Clem

où est la salle de bains?

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

iirc First Aid is French

[Gamma Emerald]

I play on Mafia Universe and heard a lot of bad and good things about frozen angel lmao.

you heard wrong

I'm good and bad not bad and good

ur just banned

i heard u were a good player tho

from like prada and wolfy

If you heard anything from Prada, what you heard is entirely 100% proved garbage no matter if its good or bad.

And I'm not going to talk about that here if you want, you can ask me about it post game in private.

maybe ill listen to you if you flip town

lol why would she lie about what others say about her as scum in this way

[Gamma Emerald]

how do you know wolfy

Surprised you haven't worked out my name from there.
I'm sure you will after time \o/

oh boyyyy Vedith pulling this shit again

[Gamma Emerald]

oh boyyyy Vedith pulling this shit again

i see how it is

VOTE: vedith

it's not AI
it's just annoying

[Gamma Emerald]

it's just annoying

I stopped saying I was your big brother, right?

You did
But I still recall the time you bullied me by claiming experience with me on some alt and you're kinda doing the same to me

[Gamma Emerald]

I played League once.

I'm very bad at Dota. What do you think of Mars?

VOTE: extrapolated eagle

serious tone and pointless joking content does no go well together

Good point. I think General Electric is probably a bad idea anyways. I really only wanted stock because of the rumors I've heard.

I do think Egg Enterprises is also a good company to take stock in.

insider trading is illegal my friend

Seeing this stuff about trading stocks kinda confused me for a second

[Gamma Emerald]

come on gamma. if you react seriously to troll friends, they will just troll you even harder. i bet you weren't that popular in high school

I was popular but mostly becasue I was

extremely

susceptible to peer pressure. I never did any substances but I did stuff like dabbing at an FBLA event (a serious event). And yeah it was pretty easy to get my goat especially in middle school.

[Gamma Emerald]

By whom

[Gamma Emerald]

Well thanks for blowing this up

[Gamma Emerald]

Is this entire game just shitposting

[Gamma Emerald]

Rei yell at me about why I'm wrong on Vedith

I don't think I can really explain it to you, because I'm basically grabbing the same quotes you grabbed and calling it town because of the reason exactly opposite of what you stated.

Ok, makes sense.

Sorry.

@everyone do you like where you feel the game is headed right now

In circles.

[Gamma Emerald]

The amount of replacements rn disgusts me so I'm not quitting this

[Gamma Emerald]

Is Shoshin replacing out?

[Gamma Emerald]

VOTE: shoshin okay then

[Gamma Emerald]

Oh already replaced
Meh w/e
