important rules:

taken from nsg's last mini normal, because i am too lazy to make my own

general:

Spoiler:
- Adhere to all site rules. Please see the latest rule change on replacements.
- Always play to win.
- Remember that this is a game - heated discussion is allowed, but personal attacks are not. Comment on play, not player.
- Pretending to break the rules will be treated similarly as actually breaking the rules.
- Do not quote any private communication regarding this game—this includes your role PM, other mod communication, posts from private threads, etc. Paraphrasing is acceptable. If you're unsure, ask me first.
- If you need to get my attention, please include "
@mod
" in your post or PM me.
-
This
(#00ffcc) is my color. You can use it, if you want.
- Do not use encryption, hidden text or excessively small text in your posts.
- Do not use any form of provable randomness. This includes dice tags, screenshots of random.org, etc. Saying you flipped a coin is okay, providing some sort of proof that you did isn’t.
- Each day phase will last for 12 days, with night phases lasting 48 hours.
- Do not post in the game thread or any private topics following your death, with the exception of the dead thread.
- If you have the ability to edit your posts, do not do so.
- My decisions are final. If I feel you are violating any of the rules, I will take the appropriate action.
- As a general principle, whenever moderator action is required I will attempt to make the decision that has the least impact on the natural flow of gameplay. For example, force replacing instead of modkilling whenever possible.
- Have fun!


voting:

Spoiler:
- All votes and unvotes must be in
bold
or in VOTE: tags, with vote tags being preferable.
- Votes in spoilers will not be counted.
- Abbreviations and nicknames are acceptable, as long as I can understand them.
- Lynches will occur when a majority (>50%) is reached. If no majority is reached before deadline, the day will end in a no-lynch.
- Voting to end the day in a no-lynch requires only 50% of players rather than >50%.
- Once a hammer has occurred, the game is in "twilight". Discussion may continue until I lock the thread but no further votes or unvotes will be counted.


activity:

Spoiler:
- You are expected to make at least one game-relevant post every 48 hours. Players who go 48 hours without posting will be prodded.
- If you are prodded, you have 24 hours to post in-thread. If you do not respond within 24 hours, you will be replaced. Additionally, if I have to prod you 3 or more times, I reserve the right to replace you at my own discretion.
- Abuse of prod dodges will result in you being replaced at my own discretion.
- If you are going to be V/LA, please announce it in thread or PM me. If your V/LA will last 7 days or longer I may be forced to replace you.


setup:

- Night actions this game will follow Natural Action Resolution.
- If you do not send me an action for the night, I will assume that you are not taking one.
- The Mafia private thread remaining open during the day would be dependent on the existence and survival of a Mafia Encryptor.
- At least one player has received the following role:

Spoiler: Vanilla Townie
Mini Normal 2073Welcome, TODO. You are a .

Abilities:

You have no special abilities. Your vote is your weapon.

Win condition:

You win when all threats to the town have been eliminated and there is at least one town player alive.

The game thread is here. Please confirm by replying to this with your role name and alignment.

hello friends!
role PMs should be out within the next hour, but i'm also cooking dinner so i may leave you all to eat. sounds like my irl mom but dinner was another family hahahahahahaa.

please PM if you have any questions. i will try to run this setup as nsg intended (+ the flavour of my internal, desperate monologue) and may defer to implosion for help in interpreting any setup stuff. cheers & see you in the game.

edit: all role PMs are out! please lemme know if i fucked up. i also hate spoiler tags, btw. game will probably start when we get 10 confirms or in 24 hours.

...... 10/10 ......

hi folks
It's always the same. When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die. You don't know whose children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they're always going to have to do from the very beginning... SIT DOWN AND TALK!

Hi all!
Based on Chill being town for so many of the games I've seen from him recently, gamblers fallacy tells me he has to be scum now.
And since gamblers fallacy is apparently a bad thing to use, it probably means he is town here.

Hey everyone, I’m James Brafin. This is my first game in a while so bear with. I’m trying some new strats so we’ll see how it goes.
Some things to know:
I policy vote/lynch toxicity. Period. I don’t want it in my game. It’s no fun for anyone.
I don’t like RVS. I’ve heard it said that it builds information, but how can you build information on no foundation? So I’m abstaining my vote. When I put it up you can assume your RVS is over.
I’m also doing a touch of research to improve my preliminary reads, so if I ask a weird question just play along.

Speaking of weird questions, I’d appreciate it if everyone would answer this:
What is your favorite thing to eat and why?
Thanks,
JB

Right off the bat these two posts feel tonaly off and forced.
Hitalt, you’re still committing the fallacy by assuming Chill is an alignment. Gambler’s Fallacy states that a player’s alignment is independent of any previous alignment. Every game is a new game and you should never make assumptions about alignment based on previous roles UNLESS you notice consistent tells from a player (For example, Inferno390 regularly 1v1s and hard tunnels as town).
Dr. EB (Can I call you Dr. EB?), you’re committing the same fallacy, but in a much shadier fashion. In addition, you’re suffering from meta warp, I.e. whenever a meta is analyzed, players (especially scum) respond by altering their play style to be different than what the meta dictates, therefore making that information useless. As a rule I don’t trust those kinds of things if they’re made public.

Also, I will answer my own question:
My favorite thing to eat is berries and/or leafy greens such as spinach, kale, or Brussels sprouts. The berries for the sweet and tart, the greens for the bitter (I love bitter and aromatic foods. Brussels and garlic baked are fantastic :) ).

I’m personally offended. What did ducks ever do to you? Cupcakes are tasty though, so long as you keep the frosting to cupcake ratio decent.
Also, just checking, but this an RVS vote, right?

That would be the reason for my research. I’m trying to figure out if there’s an alternative to RVS. Hence the odd question. It would be great if you would answer it by the way.

There definitely are other ways to gain information besides RVS. I'm skeptical of whether RQS is one of them, though.

My favorite food is sushi, I don't really know why it just is very tasty :P

Quack, quack my new friend! Fair warning you're gonna hate this big toxic pile of waste you call Dr. EB (Which you can even shorten to Deb, most people do. This is my Route 66 diner worker name.).
You think its a fallacy but odds are extremely important in all things. It doesn't necessarily mean it's going to be one thing or the other, just tells you how likely it will be one over the other. I don't listen to odds as a 100% truth because that's all they are, odds. Also, my family has a rich history of being really lucky in gambling, so I'll take my chances.
RVS is my favorite part of mafia because it doesn't actually hold meaning. I'm here for fun. Pointing random fingers is fun!
That being said, my favorite food is a croissant, you should eat one! I love weird questions so bring em on.
Final thought: Stop being so formal, loosen it up a bit baby.

Hi again to most of you, and nice to meet you LUV, Macabre, and James.

I think that we can't avoid RVS this game and will have to grit our teeth and power through a few pages of nonsense.

Mainly RVS, but to some extent a bit of both- either way, the first few pages are going to be reserved for players to get their jokes/memes/shit out of their system before actually "playing" to the game, and that will hold regardless of whether we do RVS/RQS.

Your "which food" question is on the fluffy side of things.
A question like "do you prefer being mafia" or something along those lines I can totally 100% get behind.... but "food preferences"?
It sounds like you're on a first date and you have to ask the most generic/default questions at hand to keep the conversation going (at all costs :P)
