Welcome to your secret hideout, minions! I am definitely absolutely for real DRAGONEATER70 instructing you to get those game names from that hoard of AUREAL'S over there and bring them to my secret hideout here! There's some other people out there looking for you- I think they want to stop you, but I sure don't really know anything about it, I certainly didn't tell them to look for you or anything. Just watch out for them, maybe trap them somewhere else so they can't find you before you move AUREAL'S game names over here. Here's some information about what you can do to keep them away from you!


Spoiler: Mafia Role PMs
Welcome Klick! You are a
Mafia Goon
.
Abilities:

You and your partner share a factional kill each night. You must choose which of you will commit the kill. You also share a factional Private Thread (PT), located here, where you may talk at any time.
Win condition:

You win when the Town has been eliminated, or nothing can stop this from occurring.
Welcome ceejayvinoya! You are a
Mafia Rolecop
.
Abilities:

You may target one player per night phase. At the end of the night phase, you will be informed of their role but not their alignment. Vanilla Townies and Mafia Goons will both return "Vanilla". If you are roleblocked, you will receive no result.
You and your partner share a factional kill each night. You must choose which of you will commit the kill. You may commit the kill and perform a role cop in the same night phase. You also share a factional Private Thread (PT), located here, where you may talk at any time.
Win condition:

You win when the Town has been eliminated, or nothing can stop this from occurring.

There is no rule 29!

Hope you're doing alright, it's been a while. Let's have some fun :D

Most people consider me a player that is fairly easy to read. My goal is to shift that expectation. I'm going to try to have some influence in the main goings-on, really get involved with this one. To do that, I'm going to do my best to relax and have fun.

I'd love to hear your thoughts about how you like to play Mafia!

Lets goooo

It's also been a while since I've last played so am not sure how this will go :P

I used to get bored with the game sometimes when I play mafia and I tend to be a lone wolf and let my partner just do their thing, something that I should probably work on lol.

Also is that Humanity has Declined? That show was a weird but fun ridee
Ceejay is only gonna get better but his logic can be on the wrong side of lazy logic sometimes. ~the worst

Yes! :D I love basically everything about the show and could talk about it for ages. I've never connected with the vibe of a show quite as well.

Let's go with 'light-but-effective coordination' then, that works for my style too. I think scum players are probably at their best when they're comfortable and ready to get stuck in.

I get bored as scum too, when I'm not anxious. My plan to avoid that is to try to develop the thread conversation so that there's always something to engage with.

Don't know if you followed the queue thread, but some people think there are some pretty strong players in this game. People generally have a perception of me as a solid town player, but mediocre scum player. But in this game I'm going to prove them wrongggg~

Bingle is very mech-minded. He's terrifying when he draws scum. So people will be paranoid of him. They should do that without our prompting.
Implosion is logical, tends to wallpost occasionally. Also known for a strong scum game, same as Bingle.
Black is ALSO a strong scum player. We can let these people all be paranoid of each other! Black is more impulsive and vibes-based. She has a tendency to tunnel and will often lean towards suspicion of people over finding townreads.
Dannflor is insane as town and scum haha

Its weird but am actually more worried about the worst and not_mafia.

Its been years but the worst used to have a good handle on how I play.

Also whenever I used to roll scum and not_mafia's around he gets weirdly sharp and keeps his vote on me. I still don't know how he does it.

Am just gonna have fun with this one and see what happens :P

Don't worry. You're doing fine.

Pretend I'm stubborn town. My goal is to be ignored by the thread somewhat. I'm hoping that people think my read is a stretch and decide they want to explore elsewhere.

I think we're in a reasonable spot regardless of what actually happens today. Just play towards a town mindset like you have been already. Dann scared us earlier but we're alright

We're not actually the scumteam, you see; the scumteam is somewhere within the pool of players that are quite hard to read in this game
There are too many juicy players that could be scum for it to be us, right?

I'd recommend basically ignoring the pressure on you, or giving it a one-off comment if you think that'd be more appropriate. And then just catch up how you'd normally do, give some thoughts and direction to your thoughts, and people should hopefully just go 'hmm maybe this is the wrong track'.

If you do go over today I don't feel terrible about our odds, but I also think it's very avoidable

Keep in mind that the biggest chunk of the pressure comes from me. It's an illusion. If you're plausibly towny, it can disappear.

I think the best response to worst's thoughts / the general pressure probably boils down to 'it was Page 7, let me cook'

You could probably spin your vote on me as a bit more exploratory than legitimately suspicious on that basis

With time, the pressure is slightly more tangible. But I don't think it's a lost cause by any means

If you can get into the right mindset to give a few thoughts and engage with people, we can probably turn today into a N_M or implosion elim

However you want to play this is probably fine. You could claim Rolecop, you could claim VT, you could self-hammer

Well, this is looking rough. Might as well just throw in the towel and sur...

No. Not today.

The comeback starts now! Surely this is winnable! Not with fantastic odds, but people have come back from far worse than this.

I'm not in a terrible position all things considered. I think my play towards the end of D1 makes me not that intuitive as a nightkill. I don't think I'm going to get tons of heat. I think there are several players here who are really hard to comfortably townread.

I just need to stay engaged, stay relevant, drive things forward. Spin a story. Express a few townreads based on the ceejay flip, and some likely suspects.

I'm not scum! There's some other scum out there, and I'm ready to find them!

A very vital part of making this winnable is killing a PR tonight

I am notoriously terrible at PR hunting, but I'll do my best

I think there's basically no one in this list who is impossible to mis-eliminate at this point

KILL: Bingle


1. Bingle is my best guess for a PR atm (second is implosion) (neither of these are at all confident)

2. Of all the players in this game, the only one I feel I have very little grasp of and don't want near endgame is Bingle. I think I can play around everyone else's tendencies if I try hard enough, but Bingle is a serious threat.
