CCGeek, how can you find T3's aggression possibly 'faux' but also agree with the point he made?

Oh right because you're scum.

The dayvig was a reference to a random newbie game I tuhink 2123

FOLLOW HIM! CORNER HIM! MURDER HIM!
BEAT HIM DOWN! BEAT HIM UP!
SEND HIM TO HIS GRAVE!

generic made me mad lets wagon him

I never liked camels. We were at the zoo on Saturday, and my wife wanted to go and take a photo of them. And I refused. On principle.

The principle being that camels suck.

Good morning. I exist. Hopefully, I will throughout this game.

I'm CCGeek, you can call me CCG or Shaun. (Or GGGeek when I gamesolve)

I spent so long reading the opening posts trying to figure out every conceivable way I could end up with a ban (or at least a warning) and I got beaten to the punch.

By a shitty vote post too.

I felt this so much. Someone clear this man for the duration of RVS.

Damn, giving PS people the PS treatment is real.

whoa the timing on this O_O

Hi five!

Too coordinated perchance

Since my return from semi retirement from forum mafia I had noticed the L word being considered a no no. I like some of the alternatives mentioned by the mod but can I just confirm with the players currently active, is Yeet ok around here?

Yeet, Iim, kill, I use all of the above.

i definitely like yeeting and fading people

I find that wording a little suspicious.

Aureal and Black are early favourites. Im a sucker for niceness.

And Black in particular feel natural with the digression into a RL anecdote.

Cary on

Day 1 readlists, while garbage-ish from an information perspective this early for others, are a decent starting point for any player's progression. +Town early into the day.

AW FUCK I GOT DAYVIGGED
owie
omgus go brrrr

Hello clems-kun u_u
Very disappointed we didn't roll scum together


I just realized we have a Jolteon and an Umbreon in the game. Should I change my pfp to an eeveelution too?

No! How else am I supposed to pocket you!

you should know by now you don't need to try. I exist to be in your pocket. kinda like a baby kangaroo. it's my happy place

Generic trying to read and solve already is probably a good sign?

I dont count that as solving. I have a positive opinion of two people, ironically the only two known female players to me, so maybe im just being chivalrous?

Nah, you're willing to put in the effort and not lurk, that's what matters in RVS.

Setup is actually linked at the end of the ruleset.

Alright, now that we've got things sorted, let's yeet some scum! VOTE: CCGeek

Nice bus.

Just so everyone knows. I’m very unlikely to vote until the end of the day phase.

Tossing my vote out for statement reasons doesn’t work for me. And also because people tend to use past games as meta I learned that my town play should compliment my scum play, and what’s the one thing people like to lean on when trying to identify scum? Who they voted for (or didn’t).
Beyond that, I really don’t see anyone worth voting by for right now, the game has barely got going, and I recently got my eye in playing mafia again on another site which seemed to be a faster pace than here. At least I know I won’t fall behind on my reading of this one lol.

For your information, this indicates a really really bad mindset. Town's only method of poking around for scum on D1 is voting, and the less number of people voting, the less pressure created. Not using your vote on Day as Town is the equivalent of not using your NK as scum, that is, it comes up only in very niche situations. Apart from those fairly niche situations, you're mathematically better off using your vote. I think the fact that you're used to a faster format makes sense, because this mindset comes from the faster roomchat-based games. It is not really common that in a forum format, the first D1 wagon is the lim for the day. Even if we kill off a town D1, our consolation prize is the wealth of interactions they leave behind. We have a lot more time and a lot more potential for discussion.

Speaking of discussion, right now, nothing really pops out to me except for the scattered VC, which is really to be expected this early into a game. Let's just see how this devolves from here.


The one thing I'm probably not sold on is T3's faux(?) aggression, but I'm not at all familiar with anyone's PMeta in this game apart from Iavh's.

Speaking of T3, however.

Generic trying to read and solve already is probably a good sign?

Reasoning for my read: I thought the way that Black said this was weird. Like, why not explain why Generic's solving could be a good or bad sign?

I agree that Black's tone is slightly off here, in the sense that exhibiting a desire to solve this early into the game is enough for an RVS-period clear, so the "probably" portion is slightly unnecessary and expresses doubt over something trivial, which is not the vibe I was getting from Black from her previous posts. I'm slightly more inclined to give temporary Town points to T3 for picking up on this. VOTE: Black

VOTE: T3

hi Dannflor, is this a random vote or is there some gutread involved in placing this vote?

Yeah but it was the way you phrased it that felt weird. Either way, I'm just grasping at straws to get discussion going.

The discussion will flow better once all of us have started actively participating and actively started wagoning.

I did read this post. I digested it. Mainly the parts about and to me. And I’m not budging on my vote policy until we have at least some flow of activity. Once everyone has checked in, put something into the game of note, and I feel like there is something worthy of pressure.

And yes, I’m aware that reads arrogant. Partially the point.

[Black]

I don't mind T3's vote on me. I like that he admitted he was grasping at straws to start discussion

CCG's vote feels bad though. Putting me at e-2 by piggybacking off of someone grasping at straws and doubling down on their point feels off

This was one of my favorite Mafia moments in recent memory

CCGeek, how can you find T3's aggression possibly 'faux' but also agree with the point he made?

Oh right because you're scum.

You may be right here

lucky for you im not a camel

he's a Snivy! who wouldn't want to see a snake with feet at the zoo?

[Generic]

I own two snakes.

Wait, the black wagon had 2 votes on it at the time?

[CCGeek]

OH Clems voted for black, I somehow missed that

[CCGeek]

Doesn't matter, E-2 isn't bad early D1 for 9p

What difference does it make? Are you implying you wouldn't have voted for me had you known this?

Why are you so defensive? Surely you don't mind getting wagoned early D1, do you?

No difference, I simply had missed it and was surprised when you said I put you to E-2.

[Black]

meh. I think your entrance to the game is the scummiest out of everyone so far. If voting for you after you voted for me is OMGUS then so be it

Why are you so defensive? Surely you don't mind getting wagoned early D1, do you?

i don't feel like i was being defensive at all tbh. Ironically I do mind getting wagoned but that's always been a thing with me

But I do have a question for you. In a 9p game, what do you think constitutes as a wagon?

[CCGeek]

ugh quotefailed

[Generic]

My pseudo vote is for CCG at this stage.

I’ve no idea who’s at what until we get a vote count.
