Mini 2250: Role-A-Pair Mafia (Game Over)

[RH9]

catboi, did you realise that I lied about playing in the Normal queues?

[RH9]

And I just realised that I overreferenced you, catboi before you warned me.
I feel so silly because I forgot that if you ever read my posts, you would immediately realise who I was.

[RH9]

Well done, Cadb for eliminating all the Mafia.

[RH9]

Thank you penguin_alien for letting me play even though I had only played one Newbie prior and most of my experience would be off-site.

[RH9]

RH9 I thought you played really well here! Purple was very town!

I'm busy for an hour or so, but I'll try to post some laudatory stuff to players in a bit!

Thank you! I would have never guessed how good you were at being Mafia. You are always Town in my heart!

[RH9]

And by the way, you can release my Notes PT.

[RH9]

I figured out who Pentagon, Purple, and Triangle were (also I wanna apologize for being a bit of a bitch to Triangle, I probably should have taken you more at your word about your access issues given I’d already kinda figured you out)
Also I think this was the first time I’d ever gotten to see fferyllt as scum, she is kinda scary

You figured me out. (I wish that I didn't have mentioned that Trust Fall game. Pooky and Ydrasse were in it. You were spectating it with me. And I actually didn't figure out either Triangle's or Pentagon's identities. I even thought that the worst was Triangle.)

[RH9]

Also I think this was the first time I’d ever gotten to see fferyllt as scum, she is kinda scary

I did warn the site about this but how quickly we forget.


ETERNAL VIGILANCE

I wish that I knew that fferyllt can be Mafia. I have trouble imagining still.

[RH9]

I guessed arrow1, blue, circle, triangle, and yellow2 correctly. Oh and Orange. The rest were left to the ether.

Arrow One, Circle, and Green for me.

I didn't guess pooky was blue, though it makes perfect sense in retrospect.

I only ended up guessing that Galron was Heart. That would mainly because Heart acted too like Galron. To be honest, my opening was a horrible combination of implosion's, CheekyTeeky's, Prism's, all fixed into one and with me adding extra bits to it.

I actually lied about playing in the Normal Queue because it was the closest queue to the Newbie Queue.

Wait, was Gamma Emerald the only one to guess my identity after I slipped that I spectated Newbie 2081. I was actually scared that catboi was going to notice. (Which happened.) Also, 144 was similar to what I did in Newbie 2079. 115 was exactly what I said to flow trap during Newbie 2079. And honestly, I actually thought that the second Green was Dannflor. And I thought that Circle was petapan.

And I thought that Circle was petapan.

This is actually embarrassing because I should have realised that catboi was Circle because the first to react to my accidental slip was Circle and only catboi would have noticed that it was a slip because of who I mentioned in that post. (I mentioned catboi.)

[RH9]

The thing which made me think that Heart was Galron was the short, nicely punctuated posts.

[RH9]

And in my Notes PT, I probably got too into character and referred to implosion as 'implo', which is what catboi, northsidegal, MURDERCAT, Pooky, and other people call him. I also referred to Morning Tweet as 'Tweetie' and the worst as worstie which is what other people call them. I talked about myself in third person.

[RH9]

Good game, sorry for alt slipping.
Cabd continues to have really good reads sometimes.

-Bell <- I may never hydra again due to this.

I didn't realise that you were Arrow. (At the same time, I hardly knew anybody.)

[RH9]

oh and as far as mains

Spoiler:

Purple is obv RH9
pentagon is nancy drew
don't think I have a guess on anyone else

I should never have mentioned Newbie 2081. It was too obvious because I made a reference on spectating that game when I was the only spectator.

[RH9]

To be fair, I know Ydrasse, Pooky, fferyllt, Cadb, Roden, Galron, catboi, MegAzumarill, Gamma Emerald, Nancy Drew 39, Titus, and DArby. (So I kind of lied. I know almost everybody.)

EBWOP

[RH9]

Looking back, I should have figured out that Pooky was Blue. Blue had a different musical taste to Nancy Drew 39, so no idea what made me think that she could be Blue. However, Blue was acting a bit like Pooky but I took it as Blue trying to imitate Pooky.

[RH9]

And for the next time I'm in a secret alt game, I'm going to try to make everybody not realise who I am.

[RH9]

Maybe it's because I only ever saw Pooky as Blue mentioned liking "many different types of music - romantic ballads, country, soft jazz, classics etc." and I immediately though of Nancy.

Though, I'm not sure if "Crying" by Roy Orbison counts as a romantic ballad. In which case, maybe Pooky does have similar tastes to Nancy and thinking that Pooky was Nancy wasn't that outright unreasonable. (It probably is.)

[RH9]

And to be fair, I should have realised that my opening was scummy. I hardly know how to do a subtle entrance which draws attention but isn't scummy.

[RH9]

Hey everybody,

I wish that you all are beginning to settle into this venture.
Words cannot express how excited it is to be able to get to share this journey with you all.
I will be busy on weekdays so I will be mainly be contributing in my free time at home.
I will still be reading the game and attempting to follow along.
And a question to all, what do you think of players who have unusual posting patterns? For example, posting near midnight, writing in an unorderly fashion, you name it.

Hoping for the best and for Fortuna, the semptiternal vanquisher of scum, to be amongst us,
Color Purple

And I was right. "Fortuna, the semptiternal vanquisher of scum," was "amongst us".

Except that I spelt sempiternal wrong. But still, all the scum got eliminated. So my wish came true. Thanks Cadb again!

[RH9]

To be fair, I did end up giving up on making a observations table because it was just easier stating my reads than townreading almost everybody in my observations table and sounding like a pocketer.

[RH9]

To be fair, I have no idea why I even thought that petapan was Circle.

[RH9]

And I realised that I can't spell Cabd.

[RH9]

To be fair, I did end up giving up on making a observations table because it was just easier stating my reads than townreading almost everybody in my observations table and sounding like a pocketer.

So now nobody will be able to figure out my identity from my observation tables.
Though, "Is this TMI?" is a question I post when I want people to tell me if I'm perspective slipping.

[RH9]

When Triangle dropped the posting gimmick that’s when I figured fae out

See that's why I had the posting gimmick.

It's the only way I can freaking hide!!!

I didn’t really try to hide but I did try to disguise my identity a bit though. I didn’t realize I was that obvious.

You did kind of make me think that you were CheekyTeeky. For no reason.

[RH9]

Am I the only one who didn't identity hunt? Lol

Also yeah my pain spiked a bit and I was travelling a lot again on the 2nd :p

GG all, going to now go see who was who

I didn’t either.

Then again, I didn’t do much this game either so eh.

Next game hopefully won’t happen when I move jobs, cities, and am trying to finish finals lol.

It’s really interesting how you made your slot look so much townier than your predecessor. I think had you not repped in as well as Cabd, your slot might have been a miselim. That’s also true with Green slot, since no one was tr Green prior to Cabd replacing in.

That is true.

[RH9]

Sorry I was wrong.

Don’t feel bad, you had an expert pocket. My scum partner didn’t even bother with that.

That's right. I feel like I literally couldn't bring myself to eliminate my highest Townread until the scumslip but I still couldn't bear to do it. That's kind of why I never ended up voting Yellow. Turns out I can't scumhunt when pocketed. I literally was so sure that Yellow was Town.

[RH9]

And I actually never guessed that Orange was Gamma Emerald. I did guess that Orange was somebody from Open 834 but not who.

[RH9]

i can confirm it is literally nearly impossible to get someone to vote for ffery once she stuffs them into her pocket

I find this the first time, I didn't eliminate a Mafia. I think that this will go down in my memory if I ever play with fferyllt again. (To avoid getting pocketed. Though, strangely, this is the first time that I actually had Ydrasse as a nullread. I usually townread Ydrasse as soon as she posts.)

And I'm talking about the time I spectated Open 834.

At least, I still have a 100% readrate on Pooky.

[RH9]

And I am happy that I have finally completed a non-Newbie game for real, so that I don't have to pretend to have played in the Normal Queue.

[RH9]

I'd like to, but I'd be changing up a few aspects for sure and reconsidering others. Depends on what taste the game leaves in people's mouths after they've had time to digest.

Maybe, you can make it more challenging by making each Colour a Backup modifier and each Shape a Universal Backup. Then, during Pregame, each player sends you three modifiers (as a Colour) or three power roles (as a Shape). You randomly select one of the three that they submit as their modifier or power, and ensure that your selection is Valid. After this happens, you give them their alignments. This makes things more challenging because everybody knows what they might be which lets Mafia scheme.

But then, this will technically be 'Secret Alt Modified-uPick Dance Mafia'.

[RH9]

I think the tone I used with Gamma post-game was somewhat condescending and I could have made my various posts without doing that, so I apologize for that.

Another thing I forgot to mention was that how extremely suboptimal it would even be for two scum to pair together here. Scum wants as much info as possible over the various powers and would do their utmost to try to avoid that if possible.

@RH9, you were an absolute delight to have played with.

Thank you, Nancy.
