Newbie 2037: Mafia Thread

[MiniMegabyte]

Hey sorry I was asleep

[MiniMegabyte]

This is my second game as mafia last time I was doing well until I stuffed up my claim lol

[MiniMegabyte]

I literally have no idea what the best way is

[MiniMegabyte]

Thank you I generally am not very active as town or scum cause I get nervous on what to post as both

[MiniMegabyte]

So I’ve been absolutely paranoid and really worried about how I act as both town and mafia...

At the start of the game I tend to post a lot more and more sooner as town than mafia so that will be a great start. I’ve also noticed people think it’s scummy to give reason for voting at RVS. Imma try not to do that

[MiniMegabyte]

How do you generally play as mafia?

[MiniMegabyte]

I just say like “because it’s random” or whatever something like that

[MiniMegabyte]

I just woke up sorry

[MiniMegabyte]

I feel like I am sticking out too much lol

[MiniMegabyte]

Yeah I have a good feeling about this game anyway I’m off to sleep

[MiniMegabyte]

3. First, I look for how much the person is contributing. Not just linecount, but how much they have tried to make the game better for town. Second I look at tone. If they are saying something that seems to have an unclear or shady motive behind it, then they could be scum.
4. For townreads, I like to look at the emotion and thought shown in their posting. If someone is showing genuine emotions in their posting and/or putting well reasoned thinking into their posts, they are likely town.

Thi should be easy to be aware of

[MiniMegabyte]

Okay Sounds good

[MiniMegabyte]

I have a good feeling about this game

[MiniMegabyte]

I’m so paranoid lol

[MiniMegabyte]

Okay yeah that would make sense I can see that

[MiniMegabyte]

Apologies if i cant post for a while massive storm coming

[MiniMegabyte]

In the back of my mind Billy is scum and will probably and ultimately be my final vote of the day, but we have time for more interactions and activity.

Oof

[MiniMegabyte]

Well as I said I’ve played with her two times as town and she is playing similar to the way she was then. The fact that she challenged me for my RQS questioning shows she’s not worried about ruffling feathers, which I believe she knows wouldn’t be good if she was scum, given that I can tunnel hard.

I dont see how im playing similar to my town game lol but ill take it

[MiniMegabyte]

Now I realize there is only 4 days left of D1

[MiniMegabyte]

Also, I have no problem with being eliminated, but lets be sensible and give it another calendar day or 2 before we go through the E1 process.

Could this be a PR talking? Just got this feeling by the not wanting he E1 process so quickly

[MiniMegabyte]

Just a thought

[MiniMegabyte]

Hm okay i just thought for the second part. But why would any town accept an elimination???

[MiniMegabyte]

I voted em making it E-1

[MiniMegabyte]

Told you it was a PR!!

[MiniMegabyte]

Yeah alright

[MiniMegabyte]

Do you think we are going to be able to eliminate Norfolk? If not who is next?

[MiniMegabyte]

Why is the text white now instead of black by the way

[MiniMegabyte]

Okay all good

[MiniMegabyte]

Im gonna move my vote off of Norfolk

[MiniMegabyte]

Thought...

Do you think it is too dangerous to leave Norfolk alive and not NK them tonight? My thought was they claim tracker and if they dont die overnight wont that make it look more like a fake-claim?

[MiniMegabyte]

Everyone hates me lol

[MiniMegabyte]

Once you are caught up let me know what you think of my idea from up further in this thread

[MiniMegabyte]

Why do you say Dunnstral feels like doctor? He’s barely said anything

[MiniMegabyte]

My track record for PR hunting is quite good just so you know.

Oh okay epic I trust your judgement then

[MiniMegabyte]

So what do ya think so far? Whats the best move forward here?

[MiniMegabyte]

So what do ya think so far? Whats the best move forward here?

[MiniMegabyte]

Yikes okay I haven’t played mafia much so yeah I’m kinda going with gut here cause Billy wasn’t very active cause he was busy which is okay but I’m kinda glad you’re here I’ve heard from past games you’re quite good at scum

[MiniMegabyte]

I’m off to bed. Once again thanks for replacing in I hope you’re okay with being scum!

[MiniMegabyte]

Are you still here I can’t sleep and thought we could talk solving this game haha

[MiniMegabyte]

Btw i think you should explain which voters on you that you find suspicious. You gotta say you think there’s scum on your wagon. (Wiyvern) or you’ll look suspicious.

I don’t understand this?

[MiniMegabyte]

I’m in hospital so I’m sorry if I’m less active

[MiniMegabyte]

Just checking in
With the tracker still alive and me being a SR of theirs I think it could be best if I don’t visit tonight and you do the kill?

[MiniMegabyte]

I’m still in hospital

[MiniMegabyte]

Yeah I’m going to try and catch up a bit but I’m still in hospital and will be for a while. I need to pass my mobility test and I failed it today

[MiniMegabyte]

I will post more in the thread when I can but I might be able to go home tomorrow depending if I pass my mobility assessment today and tomorrow

[MiniMegabyte]

I might be going home today

[MiniMegabyte]

I’ve been discharged

[MiniMegabyte]

Sorry I’m here

[MiniMegabyte]

If we get wiyvern today we can probably get facebones tomorrow

[MiniMegabyte]

What do you need me to do i still probably won’t be very active because I can’t move very much but I will be active for a bit now

[MiniMegabyte]

I can claim intent to hammer and ask for a claim?

[MiniMegabyte]

Oh okay yeah I can do that

[MiniMegabyte]

Okay I can do that

[MiniMegabyte]

Yeah no its fine its actually helping since i havent been active for some time

[MiniMegabyte]

"I have skimmed over what I have missed and I really dont like Facebone's latest posts.

Yes I think Wiyvern is scummy but looking at the last few pages to me Facebones seems more scummy. However I do see we are close to the deadline so if it comes to it I would be okay voting Wiyvern but I do prefer Facebones more."

[MiniMegabyte]

Does that sound alright

[MiniMegabyte]

Who wiyvern? I also just realised that i am voting Dunnstral so I will unvote aswell

[MiniMegabyte]

Okay I have a question why is Wiyvern scummy?

[MiniMegabyte]

Instead of trying to progress through things, it seems more of a defensive act. They are trying to push the vote onto someone else and that is just looking bad

[MiniMegabyte]

Ohh okay yeah I think I remember that

[MiniMegabyte]

Instead of trying to progress through things, it seems more of a defensive act. They are trying to push the vote onto someone else and that is just looking bad

This im putting as my reasoning btw

[MiniMegabyte]

Haha okay thanks for your help

[MiniMegabyte]

I unvoted too

[MiniMegabyte]

So who do you think is the best kill tonight

[MiniMegabyte]

I did not expect that question imma just say thyre not as scummy as Wiyvern or facebones they would proably be my third if those two werent scum

[MiniMegabyte]

I changed it a bot cause that sounded weird

[MiniMegabyte]

I just said they arent as scummy rn but they are still in my range

[MiniMegabyte]

Also being at E=1 why has Wiyvern not claimed

[MiniMegabyte]

Sorry for some reason as town or scum i get nervous when questioned

[MiniMegabyte]

Should I be voting someone?

[MiniMegabyte]

I thought so

[MiniMegabyte]

Okay

[MiniMegabyte]

Okay cool

[MiniMegabyte]

Well the thread died

[MiniMegabyte]

Yeah alright i will be active at random times over the next few days because i am still in rest mode from hospital lol

[MiniMegabyte]

Okay sweet

[MiniMegabyte]

Which of us do you think is best to kill?

[MiniMegabyte]

Haha yeah im enjoying it too im actually glad to have you as a partner helping me through this I really dont have much experience as scum

[MiniMegabyte]

Okay well for now im off to pick up some medication will be back in about a couple of hours

[MiniMegabyte]

Thank you for that

[MiniMegabyte]

10 hours left what is the best move here?

[MiniMegabyte]

Okay cause I’ll be asleep when deadline hits

[MiniMegabyte]

Being so close to deadline I am going to

Claiming intent to hammer

.

Reason for this is because I don’t think everyone will be able to get on to build that wagon on Facebones today. It will definitely be something to look at for tomorrow though. I also won’t be online when deadline hits but I’ll be here for a couple of hours if I don’t get to hammer because Wiyvern doesn’t claim before I sleep is there someone else that can hammer?

[MiniMegabyte]

That sound good?

[MiniMegabyte]

I posted it

[MiniMegabyte]

I got nervous lol

[MiniMegabyte]

So you reckon Dunnstral is the kill tonight?

[MiniMegabyte]

I also think you should do the kill here to be honest

[MiniMegabyte]

Actually let me skim through the trackers iso see if they have crumbed who theyll track or who they scum read

[MiniMegabyte]

Actually let me skim through the trackers iso see if they have crumbed who theyll track or who they scum read

[MiniMegabyte]

I hope my post doesn’t look too bad

[MiniMegabyte]

It’s a bit of a mess not gonna lie

[MiniMegabyte]

I swear I see myself as like “too out there” when I’m scum

[MiniMegabyte]

Sorry for spam posting in this thread btw

[MiniMegabyte]

I’m not a very confident person

[MiniMegabyte]

I’m not sure whether I just hammer here or not

[MiniMegabyte]

Okay

[MiniMegabyte]

I’m going to bed soon tho

[MiniMegabyte]

I’m off to bed

[MiniMegabyte]

Oh god

[MiniMegabyte]

Rockhopper scumslip? Wow

[MiniMegabyte]

Yeah aright it was very strange. Also i come on this morning to see the elimination was not what i thought it was it really shocked me

[MiniMegabyte]

I was so confused when I forst read the thread

[MiniMegabyte]

I dont really know how to push people

[MiniMegabyte]

Yikes okay

[MiniMegabyte]

So push to eliminate Rockhopper tomorrow i might have to look through their ISO and see what i can pull out of it

[MiniMegabyte]

As it gets closer to day start I get more nervous

[MiniMegabyte]

Well I don’t think we are going to be the ones starting the push in rockhopper Norfolk wants them eliminated today

[MiniMegabyte]

Yeah alright this does prove tho that I wasn’t tracked last night

[MiniMegabyte]

I am so glad I did the kill last night holy crap

[MiniMegabyte]

I didn’t think they would track you I’m glad I left it up to you

[MiniMegabyte]

Dam what happens in that scenario

[MiniMegabyte]

Okay that is a good thing

[MiniMegabyte]

No I knew what you meant it’s okay

[MiniMegabyte]

Oh what about the tracker?

[MiniMegabyte]

Question actually. If we leave the tracker claim alive till ELO. One of us (if we are both still alive) can claim a PR role and say we didn’t want to cc the tracker cause otherwise we would’ve died but idk if that will work

[MiniMegabyte]

Dam okay

[MiniMegabyte]

Sorry I was eating dinner

[MiniMegabyte]

So what do you need me to do?

[MiniMegabyte]

Let me see if I can work something up

[MiniMegabyte]

You and backslash have barely interacted

[MiniMegabyte]

Okie

[MiniMegabyte]

How are we doing?

[MiniMegabyte]

With your recent post can I say something like

“Wouldn’t you rather get rid of a non poster now and be able to vote out a scummy person knowing they they are very well likely to flip scum at a more crucial point?”

[MiniMegabyte]

We’ve got this

[MiniMegabyte]

So what’s the plan from here?

[MiniMegabyte]

I’m out atm but I’ll do that when I can

[MiniMegabyte]

There is 4 days left till deadline

[MiniMegabyte]

Somehow I dont think i'm gonna get Bakslash eliminated today but heopefully tomorrow i can

[MiniMegabyte]

Do you think it is too dangerous for me to town read rockhopper here?

[MiniMegabyte]

Okay

[MiniMegabyte]

So who do we eliminate today?

[MiniMegabyte]

True okay

[MiniMegabyte]

Bakslash is one they way to being eliminated Woohoo

[MiniMegabyte]

Oh god ill try

[MiniMegabyte]

So eliminate bakslash today. Kill Norfolk tonight. Eliminate rockhopper tomorrow?

[MiniMegabyte]

Sorry been busy all day.

Why are you thinking of risking the track?

[MiniMegabyte]

Yeah true i can see that but what happens after todays flip. Will either of us be tracked and if so who will it be?

[MiniMegabyte]

Nah i think it sounds okay because the game is pretty dead

[MiniMegabyte]

Lol okay sounds good

[MiniMegabyte]

I dont really know what to say in this situation because ive never been in it.

[MiniMegabyte]

I will try my best but im not really the pushing type... Probably why i fail a lot as scum

[MiniMegabyte]

Yeah its really hard

[MiniMegabyte]

So who we killing tonight and who’s doing it

[MiniMegabyte]

True true I just wasn’t sure who we had decided on killing

[MiniMegabyte]

Yep that sounds like a good argument

[MiniMegabyte]

I think we can win this game

[MiniMegabyte]

I’m scared

[MiniMegabyte]

I dunno tbh I just feel like this next day is not gonna be great

[MiniMegabyte]

We have 2 hours till day start

[MiniMegabyte]

Norfolk Boy was confirmed town and he wanted Rockhopper yesterday. We know he wasn't influenced by scum at all and therefore eliminating Rock I believe based on this is the safest elimination today.

What do you think?

[MiniMegabyte]

I took what you said and changed a bit. Feel free to tell me if it sounds too forced

[MiniMegabyte]

Oh god 10 minutes

[MiniMegabyte]

I’ll try to get on where I can but I am going back to hospital

[MiniMegabyte]

But okay I won’t vote yet I’ve pm both mods and V/LA for 24 hours to be safe

[MiniMegabyte]

That’s all good I can do that

[MiniMegabyte]

Uh what you want me to vote you?

[MiniMegabyte]

Nah I reckon we wait. Cause if we wait and there is no hammer then they will be forced to look at 2 options.

1) rock/Italiano as the partner
2) me/Dunnstral as the partner

[MiniMegabyte]

Because as you’re being voted by 2 people and a hammer hasn’t happened yet that could mean your partner is on your wagon or your partner isn’t and they don’t want to be the one to hammer.

[MiniMegabyte]

That’s okay let me do subs thing I’ll ask some questions and see if people can answer

[MiniMegabyte]

If I get asked why I did that I will say I was trying to gain some knowledge about how you each would respond to give me and idea on who the scum would be

[MiniMegabyte]

Testing reactions!

[MiniMegabyte]

Or I’ll say the game was so dead so was trying to make conversation to alert everyone that this is a very important time

[MiniMegabyte]

If this turns out bad on me I apologise

[MiniMegabyte]

Not sure

[MiniMegabyte]

Oh god I’ve been in the pool cause it’s been a hot day/night and I come back to this I’ll try my best thanks for replacing in

[MiniMegabyte]

Before you can’t post here anymore. What’s the chances on killing Dunnstral and then going from there?

[MiniMegabyte]

Because rock said it’s possible for Italiano/Norwegian

[MiniMegabyte]

Ahhh I’m so torn I hate being in this position

[MiniMegabyte]

Okay so I have to decide now I hmmm give me some time to think

[MiniMegabyte]

MiniMegabyte kills Italiano

That’s probably gonna be the best way

[MiniMegabyte]

Nah that can be locked in and I don’t mind an early end to the night I would rather get going with this game it’s either win or lose this next day

[MiniMegabyte]

Locking in Kill - MiniMegabyte Kills Italiano

+

Vote to end night early

[MiniMegabyte]

So plan:

Try and talk Rock into voting Dunnstral with something like:
“Well Dunnstral wasn’t on the Norwegian wagon and I know I wasn’t but I was trying to find the right elimination. Also how else would Norwegian be confirmed scum? Dunnstral said that but never explained? I dunno all sounds off to me”

[MiniMegabyte]

God this next day phase is gonna be difficult

[MiniMegabyte]

Not sure if you look at this but I’m going into hospital again I may not be around for day start

[MiniMegabyte]

I won’t be around for probably 24-48 hours. This is such bad timing and Norwegian I’m sorry if this loses us the game

[MiniMegabyte]

But I may need surgery

[MiniMegabyte]

Imma try my best from here to get us through this Norwegian

[MiniMegabyte]

I hope I can pull this off

[MiniMegabyte]

So far so good? Although I’m back in hospital again

[MiniMegabyte]

Oh god I hope this works

[MiniMegabyte]

I hope I can pull this off

[MiniMegabyte]

I’m so nervous

[MiniMegabyte]

Oh no this isn’t looking good...

[MiniMegabyte]

mod

if by a million miles there is no elimination what happens then?
I mean ofc that is so unlikely to happen but they are both absent so just asking incase

[MiniMegabyte]

So chances of me being eliminated is really like 75% likely.

[MiniMegabyte]

Chances of me beimg able to turn the elimination onto Rock is probably a 15% chance

[MiniMegabyte]

Meaning that its a 10% to turn the elimination ontp Dunnstral

[MiniMegabyte]

Oh god im so nervous I hope its not showing in my posts

[MiniMegabyte]

I just had a thought on something

In post 991, MiniMegabyte wrote:
Could that be a shot at distancing? Like if they got eliminated and flipped scum it would have out a good word in for Norwegian but I dunno just a thought at this point


With me saying this, if Rock is scum they couldve had the interactions they did to put the thought into our heads that because of the way they interacted with each other it couldnt be the other person (in this case it would be the fact that Norwegian flipped scum so it cant be Rock).


Teh only reason i am saying this is because it has just happened in a game I played between 2 players who were

[MiniMegabyte]

So might try and talk Dunnstral into voting Rock ever so lightly so its not too obvious

[MiniMegabyte]

Ahhhh screaming to myself stressingthe hell out

[MiniMegabyte]

There is a likely chance it could be either of you i am so literal scared its going to be you

Don't have anxiety over this... it is not a big deal

Votecount 2.6

bakslash (3): ItalianoVD, MiniMegabyte, Rockhopper
rockhopper (2): NorwegianboyEE, Norfolk Boy1

Not Voting (2) -

Dunnstral, Bakslash

With 7 players alive it takes 4 votes to eliminate.

The deadline for Day 2 is (expired on 2020-11-16 14:31:14).

In this scenario, Bakslash should logically vote for rockhopper, leaving me unvoted. I said I would vote for rockhopper over bakslash, if it came down to it. Norwegian instead flips the vote to bakslash, saying he just wanted to get something done.

This strikes me as weird but it doesn't mean Rock is mafia

I could probably use this as ammunition

[MiniMegabyte]

Why is this game so stressful

[MiniMegabyte]

No one is postign and im still stressing my brain out

[MiniMegabyte]

Trying to think of reasons i can use to eliminate Rock hmmm...

1. Post by me - 1011
2. Dunnstral has said on multiple occasions that he would vote Rock (Thats a plus)
3. Rock isnt around much (Not a very strong reason but its one)

[MiniMegabyte]

Only one tiny problem is the fact that Rock has said they want to vote me and Rock has said they thought that the scum team was me and Norwegain (yikes)

[MiniMegabyte]

I have no idea what my chances are at winning this but there isnt long left of the day

[MiniMegabyte]

Votecount 4.4

Not Voting (3) -

Dunnstral, MiniMegabyte, Rockhopper

With 3 players alive it takes 2 votes to eliminate.

The deadline for Day 4 is (expired on 2020-12-03 14:05:55)
