having gutscum reads on fluminator. either that or my stomach didn't like the thanksgiving feast. it's really leaning towards the former.

[Fluminator]

That's okay, because chances are you're scum.

[Save The Dragons]

STD is scum

Maybe, but I'm not a spy though so

[Bowser]

oooh omgus. lame.

[pablito]

Is there ever a situation where someone would want to reject a team in the beginning rounds?

(Sorry for rambliness, blame the thanksgiving wine.)

We do get more information through the leader's team suggestions than the missions themselves so rejecting more often than not could give us more information for later, no?

[Fluminator]

oooh omgus. lame.

What you're doing won't work this game. This aint a mafia game.

Pulling out lazy wiki tells on someone he probably thought would be an easy target.
There's no mislynching this game though.

[Bowser]

look at captain obvious, trying so fucking hard to look town.

i played in this gametype twice. don't play dumb with me.

[Save The Dragons]

Am starting to remember why I don't play mafia anymore.

I'm still unconvinced this gives us any information but I think if a spy is in the three they'd be crazy to lose on the first one. I feel less comfortable with BBMolla though so I'd almost prefer the next three go.

[Fluminator]

Sorry. This game is better than mafia though, don't worry. (At least it is live. I haven't played this on a forum before.)

There's generally not much difference which three go first. The three leaders going first basically guarantee overlap right away which can be useful.

[Save The Dragons]

It's fine it's more a personal thing like the second i get involved in a shouting match honestly I'm probably replacing out. I think there's a certain expectation of how the game runs on a forum full of mafia people and I should have considered that before I joined. It's not necessarily bad it's just i've found it doesn't work well for me.

So first test passes, and then what happens. The first three leaders are 3 random people. Nothing guarantees the leader has to be 100% involved in their test, right, so couldn't a majority choose 3 people they feel the most comfortable about and just negate any tests that don't reflect that?

I don't know, this is why I'd rather talk for a bit than have, for example, BNL see 2 or 3 of his spy buddies in the top 3-4 spots and tell his buds "hey, you should pass the first, fail the second, we'll blame the new person and be in a somewhat decent position for the rest of the game under this false pretext of 'information.' " I don't think that's the case, but I'd almost rather see if we can suss that out rather than just follow mr. "I'm going to wait for everyone to post J/K LEZ GO NOW"

[Bowser]

he'd have to hint it in-thread because it's stated at least once the spies cannot talk privately, would he be a spy.

This is correct ftr, absolutely no private communication in this game (except to me, of course - I would like this phase to not take the three days allocated, so kindly get those votes in!)

[Save The Dragons]

How about I actually read the rules and get back to you all

If I'm a spy I'm failing this mission because that's the kind of person I am.

[BBmolla]

I'm not though and most likely others don't have the balls to do so, it'll probably succeed.

If it succeeds we probably do same three + someone townish.

If it fails we figure it out from there.

No that does not work sorry.

[BBmolla]

[Save The Dragons]

I wish you werent up first

[BBmolla]

I agree with STD this logic is weird. We're already taking your word that you're not a spy. Maybe that is how you play but we have no idea. There are incentives for spies to fail the mission and to pass the mission. We can't be sure that everyone on a mission here would be clean even if it passes.
