Introduction and Tips
Thanks to Irrelephant11 and others for their contributions to these tips.


Here are some helpful links (a lot of them from our helpful wiki):

-> Forum Rules and Guidelines
-> The Glossary
-> Commonly Used Abbreviations
-> The Newbie Guide
-> Articles on How to Play Well (be sure to check the dates these were written/updated, as good advice changes over time)


Key Concepts and Tips


Activity


Try to check in at least once a day.
Besides the activity requirements listed in the moderator's original post, it's just necessary for a fun and healthy game that everyone
plays
. If you post very rarely, or only post a little bit at a time, you may get scumread for lurking. Even if you are not scumread for it, what's the fun in playing a game where multiple people are hardly participating?

Site Meta


Meta is the description of how people on Mafiascum like to play mafia. Things can be different on other online mafia sites, or if you play IRL, so it's good to know what's expected of you on this site. These aren't "rules", per se, but if you don't follow these guidelines it is likely things will go poorly for you on MS. Some examples are...

Random Voting Stage (RVS)

Games on MafiaScum almost always begin with what we call the Random Voting Stage (RVS). At this point in the game, we are in a low information game state (except the mafia, which know everyone’s alignment). As a way to provoke reaction, start a discussion, and try to determine alignment, people will usually vote for non-serious reasons. As the discussion progresses, we will eventually get the game moving and progress out of RVS.

Voting, E-x, and Hammers

E-x is a way to convey how far away a player is away from elimination. For example, you should always announce that you are putting someone at E-1 (1 vote away from an elimination) so that someone doesn’t come along and accidentally vote for that player's elimination. This also prevents Mafia-aligned players from coming along and placing the final vote to eliminate (“hammer”) and claiming ignorance about doing so. You may also see E-2 and E-3 (2 votes away from elimination and 3 votes away from elimination, respectively).

Before you hammer a player, state your intent to hammer (usually done in bold) and ask the player to claim their role. This is done to prevent power roles from being eliminated, and can sometimes get Mafia-aligned players to be caught (via counter claiming). It's best to then allow other players to react and discuss the claim before hammering.


Claiming Your Role

It is almost always best to not claim your role unless you are at E-1 and have been asked to claim as part of an “intent to hammer.” This is because, as a town power role (“PR”), if you out prematurely, you are likely to be night-killed (“NK’d”). As a Vanilla Townie (“VT”), claiming early helps the mafia team narrow down the setup and possible PR candidates. An exception to this would be if a mafia player claimed your role, claiming early to counter the false claim (“CC”) would out the mafia player, and would be a benefit to the town.

Do not fake claim a power role as town!
While it may help you avoid getting eliminated, you might cause a real PR to out themselves by counterclaiming - then the mafia will know who the PR is, and you will probably get eliminated for lying to town. Feel free to fake a claim as scum, though, if you think it would help.

ELo

ELo is the shortened representation of “Eliminate or Lose.” ELo in the Newbie Queue is when there are 3 remaining players, 2 of which are town and 1 is mafia; or when there are 5 remaining players, 3 of which are town and 2 are mafia. It is important in these situations that the town aligned players do not carelessly vote like is done during RVS or early days, as the mafia player(s) can organize and instantly provide the necessary votes to eliminate (“quickhammer”) and win the game.

Conclusion

Mafia is hard!
As town, it can be hard to figure things out, and stressful when people think you're scum.
That's okay!
Just share your thoughts on who you think is scum as they come to you, and don't be afraid to change your mind. As scum, it can be hard to lie convincingly, and stressful when people think you're scum. Don't let that scare you! Try to think of what you would post if you were town, and don't be afraid to "change your mind".

This is a game.
Have fun!

Role PM's have been sent. Once 7/9 players have confirmed to me their role and alignment, the game will begin.

I will replace anyone who has not confirmed their role PM in 48 hours.

Anyways, what’s everyone’s favorite flavor of ice cream?

My go to lately has just been just taking low carb vanilla and mashing anything fun I can find into it. So obvious is oreos or chocolate chips, but branching out to other leftover Halloween candy like kitkat bars and snickers, whatever cookies are lying around like thin mints, or cereal like cornflakes, cocoa krispies.

Banana.
Random question: Is banana ice cream a thing in the states? I went to Arkansas a few years ago and never found any.
PS. Not banana + toffee or banana + _____. Just banana flavoured.

I would like to say certainly, but I don’t think it’s in every state.

I have not come across banana ice cream, so it's not common here, but there are plenty of homemade ice cream shops that make their own, so I'm sure if you look hard enough you can find it. Have you had banana pizza though?

Do not tell my Italian partner but I do not like pizza.

Just going to get the backlash to the comment out the way:
UNVOTE: ClarkBar
VOTE: JamesTheNames

I don’t think I have ever tried banana pizza.

Also, please don’t vote yourself. There are reasons to vote yourself but this isn’t one of them.

Posted: Thu Jul 22, 2021 3:52 am

No rush and maybe I should just research myself, but interested in the reasons to self-vote.

UNVOTE: JamesTheNames
VOTE: Ythan

I guess it got me to unvote, so maybe that's one...

As a kid I was all about Rocky Road. These days anything vanilla with a little caramel is my go to. Ben & Jerry's "Americone Dream" is perfection.

I have strangely never heard of Banana ice cream. Seems like an obvious flavor too. So is the backlash about this or you not liking pizza? I'm confused by the self-vote.
