always sad when a newbie doesn't pick up their role PM. But hopefully I get a new teammate soon.
To whoever takes the slot: hello! You probably aren't aware of me, but I'm one of the best scum players on this site. Playing scum is very challenging and not always intuitive for a beginner to grasp, but I greatly enjoy the alignment. Too often people give themselves a complex about playing scum where it makes the game harder and less enjoyable for them. I would like to make this game fun for you and try to help you be the best scum player you can be. Always feel free to bring your questions or concerns to me. I believe that successfully fooling people is one of the most rewarding experiences in this game.
you're probably going to be in enormous trouble for that post, I have no idea what you were thinking given you literally posted in here. I hope you have a good explanation?
please
actually start talking to me in here. Communication is the basis of any successful scumteam and without it the game is going to be significantly harder. I am on your side. I want to help you out. What's got you so uptight?
what post did you find troublesome? Also I've played Mafia before, but not in a while, and this is my first time playing on Mafia Scum, found the site looking for online Mafia games

the thing maestro was jumping on as a slip, the lack of explanation was troubling even though you posted in here first. But your explanation made sense and hopefully people accept it.
That's cool, what type of games are you used to playing? are they heavy on power roles or more basic?
well I used to play Town of Salem where literally every role is a power role, but stopped because I disliked the inclusion of vampires and that even those who didn't vote gets haunted by the jester, any cult variation is a no go for me
We can talk about the night kill when we get out of Day 1, which is a long way away. She's also townreading you so I wouldn't panic. Reads can always shift and I'm not particularly bothered by early pressure on me.
all right. I'm not going to coach you too much, I thinkyour best bet is just keep doing what you're doing and play the part of a clueless townie. i am slightly paranoid people will read way too much into things if i start giving you advice in the game thread so I'm not going to do that.
It's only a mistake if it gets you killed. That's all I'll tell you. For now, yeah, you make reads with the idea that "i would have thought this as town", that's enough to fake something that sounds believable. we can maybe talk about more advanced stuff down the line. just argue for a it and see where it goes.
asking questions is fine. don't overthink something as simple as that. showing curiosity makes you look engaged in the game and like you want to hear about things. it's a good way to produce some form of activity. just go for it.
i realized i have been attacking other people a lot so i am putting an intentionally weak vote on you for the sake of putting some distance between us. don't sweat it too much.
I think we're in an okay spot relatively speaking in that people do not believe we are aligned. I don't think I get elimmed and enough people are defending you with maestro being not very persuasive that you
should
be okay but even in a worst case scenario if you get run up you can claim a power role.
