I mean, you're overemphasing this a bit? If someone wasn't open-minded enough to like all kind of roles and instead wanted only to play very specific roles, we probably wouldn't play mafia game?In post 104, Varsoon wrote:This is that shit I don't like. The WHOLE point of this game is that it's a U-PICK where YOU PICK the roles.
I can't fathom why someone would want to play as characters they DID NOT PICK.
I mean, most of the time you don't get to choose what role or alignment you're going to play as. I replaced in because I wanted a more mechanical complex setup and I indeed wanted to fake claim or do some kind of gambit if I got to roll scum (I've a good time doing it).
Also, about the question if it was my pick or Carcalilly's pick, it was Carcalilly's I guess because I didn't get to pick anything. If there is info that Carcalilly should know and I don't, maybe we can fix that with the mod just telling me that particular info?
Your wall kinda...mmmmh, sorry to say this, but sounds a bit cherrypick at times? maybe it's because you needed to comment on all of that or something, but yeah, I'm not answering most of those questions or going to quote weird parts of it because idk what to do with it, it's too long and idk if this is common coming from you.
My vote on Chibi was really random though, and I voted Gamma to see if would keep asking questions and etc. By the way NSG pointing out her wiki for me, if I stretch it, might be very slightly town indicative but I feel that's just NAI. I think she said that because she knows I read and enjoy a lot of her games and games from people I find good as a certain alignment in hope of trying to learn something. Also I had just implied that I needed to see a recent game of hers as scum.-

Oh dear god. Okay so I'm going to do my best to try to reply to The Great Wall of Varsoon at some point but right now it's too early in the morning for that.
NK15's explanation of his MariaR/nightkill statement makes sense, but I can't 100% shake the possibility of it being a recovery from a slip up. It feels pretty genuine though? Plus the people who know him are saying that this is pretty typical of him. I think it's likely that his logic was from a town POV and just had an odd choice of terminology.
I don't really know what to make of the Miller claim, I was a Miller in my most recent game and avoided claiming until the final day because I didn't want to get insta-lynched on D1 or policy lynched later on. According to you guys and the wiki though it's apparently common practice to claim ASAP so I guess that I'm justbaaaaarelyleaning towards believing the claim at the moment. Miller is a pretty awkward role in normals but in a theme game with unusual roles it might actually be pretty interesting, I'm really looking forward to seeing what kinds of cool roles jjh came up with!
Ok I'm just rambling now to avoid having to actually read that wall. Ugh.Boop.-

Well that's real nice, I can already tell we're going to get along.Once again, another anti-town, content-devoid garbage sheep that I warned against earlier.
Sorry if you don't like RVS but it's a thing that happens and I choose to participate in it.
Why are you asking me and not Nibbui who came to the same conclusion?How did it seem obvious?
What did he say to make it seem obvious?
Walk me through this like I am a child.
"the process of my quest isn't helpful to the town. (Whereas if I told you what it was, it could easily be achieved without any consequences)"
So it's something that doesn't really affect town in a meaningful way neither positively nor negatively, and can be easily controlled. Getting a certain number of votes immediately jumps to mind. Or could be to do with deadlines, achieving a lynch before/after a certain time limit. I initially also thought maybe being targeted by a night action but that doesn't really fit.
'It's not a full-on anti-town quest lol. It's not a quest I can achieve by myself so I'd need to work with everyone to achieve it. But I can see a way in which it could make things go badly."
It's not inherently harmful to town but can result in something bad happening. Again, the things I mentioned above can all fit.
"I imagine that we are either going to achieve my quest condition naturally or we are going to come close to it and I'm going to be like "hey, can we quickly do this:" to achieve it. It would make more sense if I claim it."
"My quest isn't necessarily disruptive though, just that it could be."
So yeah. Between the things I came up with, getting a certain number of votes (Eg. L-1) seemed to make the most sense considering his descriptions. When I saw Nibbui come to the same conclusion I thought it was pretty cool since I'm not usually any good at logical deductions, but since he also came up with the same thing, that means my logic was probably sound.
What character? I don't remember mutant claiming a character. I guessed it based on the above reasoning.I assume this is because of something to do with the character?
Uh, what? I'm not even sure what you're trying to say here. How does this make sense as a reply to my joke about Gamma 'revealing' my flavour? (And yes, flavour has a 'u' :3)Maybe don't make obvious picks with easy solves for how they'd render into Mafia?
Like damn, son.Boop.-

I was away just now so I actually didn't see that first post until after you posted that 2nd one. Now that you mention it though, whywouldyou townread me as a result of feeling like you're being pocketed?
This doesn't feel like something scum would say imo.Nibbui wrote:actually nvm

Responding to Varsoon's wall with post numbers so we don't create posts that break the site.
Spoiler: these are jokes
2: This seems a bit anal about the whole thing. Yes someone picking and then replacing sucks because they don't get to play with a flavor they picked out themselves. But it feels like you're treating the as compromised just through this. I can see what you mean with FFT, and can call your comparison with the Murder at King's Landing game SAD ran which was also an anonymous alt game and iirc some players kinda pushed how far they could go with that, including a hydra that had some problems. fyi Carcalilly picked her roles and then flaked (which is a repeat offense, and probably will result in me not letting her into games I mod anytime soon), otherwise we'd have had need of a replacement a lot sooner.
9: I could answer these but I'll let them be unless they come towards me.
16: excited for several reasons, will try to rattle off as man as I can: role, a hype playerlist (and btw I know the origin of hype, idc I'll still use it), RC doing the same thing with firebringer me and DVa did in a completed game, being happy I get to play what I think will be a lolbalance UPick after Alisae leaving the promise of his UPick hanging, and excitement from various things I cannot get into without a mire of spoilers for a LOT of things.
Why are you being such a grump about fluffposting though? Are you seriously this meme?
21: A lot of this is fluff, but I'm not gonna let your grump attitude stop me from enjoying the game I want to play.
Getting into what I said to Maria, just because I'm asking about role things doesn't mean I intend to do things about them. I'll get into that down below.
The ChibiBear question has to do with my mire of spoilery thoughts and just my general mire of random thoughts, which has been swirling like crazy recently. One thing of which I think you might find cool: my mom and sister have convinced me to check out Steven Universe!
The Nibbui question was because Nibbui's statement made no sense and I was trying to parse it.
23: See below.
24: not the thing I've been pointing to, but why do you think MariaR is realclaiming as town? Nibbui just brought up fakeclaiming, why does that slip your mind?
29: I do NOT think MariaR is town as of this moment.
30: well our "RVS" seemed a little voting light, so I was encouraging more votes.
34: Yeah, I noted I gelled with your thinking in 32, although I didn't notice you saying anything about what you thought of mutantdevle for his theory.
35: good thought, though lacking in alignment indication.
37: I actually followed SU2 Mafia from around the midpoint, and iirc the Climax meter was another form of swing mitigation. So yeah I get what you're talking about.
44: Brings up something I didn't notice. why DID you ask that question, Nibbui? why does you having that at the top of your head matter?
39 & 46: So as I said, I had a quest in a past game where I could increase my usefulness if I was brought to L-1 and survived. This is the game, fyi.
49: your sarcasm radar must be broken.
52: this should go in the jokes section but this is addressed at me and the jokes section is meant to be skippable. I made that joke because one of Maria's alts is the character Sonia Nevermind.
55: noticing Varsoon playing the paranoia card a lot? Nagl.
59: Directed at NSG
61: I was like “ok, if it wasn’t a reaction test I don’t see much that I take issue with”. I was neutral on the vote pretty much.
64: I’m gonna give you the short version, if you want the long version just say so. A player who doesn’t play here anymore, Infinity324, has a consistent track record of reading me based on how engaged I was. I’ve broken free from that meta somewhat but I still believe that certain ways I behave are exclusive to one alignment over the other. For instance I will sometimes try to sit in the background as scum if I don’t like the way things are going or don’t want to upset the path of events.
81: For some reason I just find the way Varsoon is playing around Nico and the Miller claim awful.
79, 82, 86: This is serious. I’d definitely expect her to have a more emotive reaction to what I did.
89 and 92: Giving preferential treatment to Maria I see.
94: are you mocking me? I think you’re mocking me.
So I agree with a lot of Varsoon's theoryposting, but that is pretty prevalent which gives me an IIoA vibe, plus I feel like his grump-ness might be scummy. That grump-ness read is meta based though and I need to check it. Also the way he’s interacting with everyone gives me the feeling not everyone is starting at the same point for him, indicating hidden knowledge.
VOTE: Varsoon<Embrace The Void>

Well, I'd still classify vigilante shots as nightkills. No, Mafia shooting a bulletproof vest is good, but that wasn't what I was saying. I was saying that it is nearly impossible to verify that BP vest without wasting a nightkill. Would mafia use their nightkill to prove that when its out in the open? No. Only a nightkill in the hands of town could do that, but that's suboptimal for town because it is only telling us that bulleproof was not a lie.In post 104, Varsoon wrote:This is that shit I don't like. The WHOLE point of this game is that it's a U-PICK where YOU PICK the roles.
I can't fathom why someone would want to play as characters they DID NOT PICK.
This reminds me a lot of my frustrations with my very own favorite-game-designed-and-run-onsite, Final Fantasy Tactics Mafia.
In FFT Mafia (which I designed, of course!), players were all given secret alt accounts to post from that aligned with the Zodiac signs that each represented,
Those players then double-drafted their roles in what was, really, honestly, the best draft phase that anyone has conceived of.
Basically, players had access to every JOB CLASS role in the game, but only knew the FIRST ABILITIES of each while having a somewhat nebulous flavor explanation of what the class does.
After the first phase of private picking, everyone learns ALL THE SECRET ABILITIES of the first JOB CLASS they picked and then they get to post and pick again at the end of that posting phase.
So it was this really involved semi-closed draft. Town, of course, tried to game it, but scum was secretly.Spoiler: Spoilers for that game, you should REALLY read it!
Anyway, as you can see, replacements SEVERELY compromised the integrity of that game. It ran to completion, but it infuriated me that the anonymity of the setup was oft-compromised with replace-ins making it that much harder to actually read a slot, but, furthermore, those replace-ins were never a part of the semi-open double-draft, so it was like they had no agency over their role which was a huge part of that game.
Anyway, what I'm saying is, shame on you Carcalilly for replacing out. Or eating a ban. Or whatever happened. I mean, I guess I get if IRL stuff came up and bit you in the ass but if you just made picks and replaced out for no good reason, gross.
In fact;
@MOD: Did Carcalilly make the picks for that slot or did you let Nibbul make the picks?
Me too! I was surprised it finally did. I've been pretty excited for it, but yeah, it is a U-Pick, so it makes sense, especially given that JJH had to design these interesting and multifaceted roles.In post 4, Firebringer wrote:I thought this game would never start
Why do you vote FB here? I thought it took a long time for the game to start, too, but that doesn't make me scum.
Seems like a pretty NAI thing to push, I don't understand.
Are you just reaction fishing? On Firebringer? One of the most volatile players in the game?
It really looks like you're kicking a wasp's nest and hoping that people will blame the wasps for being violent.
I'm gonna keep an eye on how you try to handle game momentum moving forward.
Good shit on calling that out but I wish you'd be more critical.In post 6, Firebringer wrote:nice rvs vote
Posts like this don't give me much more insight into your alignment;
I'm tempted to call it town, because it's so Firebringer devil-may-care attitude, but I think you might just play that way regardless.
Do you actually have some criticism of this vote or how do you think of it? I'm reading this as sarcasm, btw, but when I look at it further...
You absolutely deny the vote any weight by calling it out as an RVS vote, like, that they don't have legitimate reason to vote you.
It's interesting that you'd do that, but we'll see if that sort of denial and sarcastic survivalism is indicative of align or not, I suppose?
This is trash. If everyone just sheeped you on this petty interaction, we'd have no info at the end of D1.In post 7, Not Known 15 wrote:
...In post 6, Firebringer wrote:nice rvs vote
scum 1 found.
Sheep me.
What I take from this is that you're trying to give your vote pressure and reassert it as meaningful after Firebringer's denial.
I can get the town mentality of doing so (trying to reaffirm pressure) but the means of doing it is so anti-town that right now I'd rather vote you than FB.
Ugggh openwolfing and pooky-tells are supposed to be my thing, Firebringer.In post 8, Firebringer wrote:I would sheep u if I wasn't a wolf.
But on the real, I'm reading the further sarcasm and nonplussed response as you letting the vote and double-down roll off your back.
You're being consistent, at least, which feels better than not.
I'm curious if Not Known 15 will be as critical of this post as Firebringer's entry.In post 9, Gamma Emerald wrote:

This post rings more as joyous at the start whereas FB's seems a bit more 'ugh it's about time' kinda stuff
So I imagine you got a role you're excited for, or even an alignment?
What's the optics on Gamma's enjoyment of playing each alignment?
Does he like playing scum or town way more than the other?
It's wild that there's already a bit of an interaction happening on-page so far and you've decided to ignore it ENTIRELY to push this vanity-joke.In post 10, mutantdevle wrote:Can we vote for past jjh?

Ngl I'm already loving my role primarily because it looks like the mod properly researched into my obscure picks. My minigame flavour is just perfect. So thanks for that jjh
I don't get it.
I do appreciate the flavor and role design so far, too, but I really want you to focus more on the game.
You continuing to deny that seems like a further denial of the severity of NK15's vote, which is in-line with Firebringer's approach.
Lightly thinking you two are in the same camp, at least, mentally.
Won't be surprised if FB likes you.
I play on Mafsilver too and the mod color literally requires me to highlight the text.In post 11, mutantdevle wrote:Also, your mod colour hurts my eyes on maf silver
That said, your continued avoidance of actually engaging with the game bothers me a ton.
I don't think it's a huge deal at this point but if I was given a gun and asked to shoot someone out of you three posters so far, I'd shoot you every time.
@MOD: Consider using a mod color that looks fine on the various Mafiascum.net templates.
For instance, white looks neat on MafBlack but is completely illegible on MafSilver.
Just something to consider.
Yup, called it. FB's engaging with Mutant's off-topic post. Reads as further vote-distancing.In post 12, Firebringer wrote:past jjh is dead. this is currernt jjh which will soon also be past jjh who will die.
we should instead vote for future jjh but future jjh will never come because when it is the future it will be the current and then past and we all know the past is just history and history is dead.
so we can't lynch anyone when u think about it.
our past selves aren't our current selves and we aren't ever our future selves until it becomes current and then it will pass and the idea of the self is kind of a touchy subject, not even sure if there is such a thing of the self and we are all just in mass delusion that a self exists for convenience.
But it's pretty postmodern to acknowledge that your past self is not your current or future self even.
This is why we write shopping lists, because we know right now what we need, but we are acknowledging that our future self will not know despite still being 'us'.
It's some pretty Derrida-level stuff, actually factually.
If you actually are interested in this stuff and aren't just shitposting, I suggest reading 'Signature Event Context': http://lab404.com/misc/ltdinc.pdf
Goes a lot into writing as a representation of communication of the self of the past, which arises from an acknowledgement of the absence of that self in the future.
It's like 25 pages of verbose, ambling French translated into English so I'll save you the scrying and just grab the best bit of it:
What are in effect the essential predicates in a minimal determination of the classical concept of writing?
1) A written sign, in the current meaning of this word, is a mark that subsists,
one which does not exhaust itself in the moment of its inscription and which can
give rise to an iteration in the absence and beyond the presence of the empirically
determined subject who, in a given context, has emitted or produced it. This is
what has enabled us, at least traditionally, to distinguish a "written" from an
"oral" communication.
2) At the same time, a written sign carries with it a force that breaks with its
context, that is, with the collectivity of presences organizing the moment of its
inscription. This breaking force (force de rupture) is not an accidental predicate
but the very structure of the written text. In the case of a so-called "real" context,
what I have just asserted is all too evident. This allegedly real context includes a
certain "present" of the inscription, the presence of the writer to what he has
written, the entire environment and the horizon of his experience, and above all
the intention, the wanting-to-say-what-he-means, which animates his inscription
at a given moment. But the sign possesses the characteristic of being readable
even if the moment of its production is irrevocably lost and even if I do not know
what its alleged author-scriptor consciously intended to say at the moment he
wrote it, i.e. abandoned it to its essential drift. Ar:; far as the internal semiotic
context is concerned, the force of the rupture is no less important: by virtue of its
essential iterability, a written syntagma can always be detached from the chain in
which it is inserted or given without causing it to lose all possibility of functioning,
if not all possibility of "communicating," precisely. One can perhaps come to
recognize other possibilities in it by inscribing it or grafting it onto other chains.
No context can entirely enclose it. Nor any code, the code here being both the
possibility and impossibility of writing, of its essential iterability (repetition/alterity).
3) This force of rupture is tied to the spacing [espacement 1 that constitutes the
written sign: spacing which separates it from other elements of the internal contextual
chain (the always open possibility of its disengagement and graft), but
also from all forms of present reference (whether past or future in the modified
form of the present that is past or to come), objective or subjective. This spacing
is not the simple negativity of a lacuna but rather the emergence of the mark. It
does not remain, however, as the labor of the negative in the service of meaning,
of the living concept, of the telos, supersedable and reducible in the Aufhebung
of a dialectic.
This sort of doubling down and bringing the focus back on the game at hand is great but I don't appreciate you grounding it in a less serious place and not addressing the game so far.In post 13, NicoRobin wrote:Hello.

I was expecting to have to dance around this more, based on a similar play Kokichi Oma made in Deja Vu Mafia (RIP). Thank you for providing these specifics, they make me much more inclined to aid you. While making you immune to some sort of a kill is kinda unsavory, it’s better bulletproof than Lynchproof as lynch is town’s main weapon while the gun is a more rogue tool.
Unfortunately I cannot aid you right now but I’ll do what I can to help. This is dependent on you remaining not-a-scumread FYI.

If we all out our quests, then mafia also know who is role-enabled and can base their kills off of that.In post 31, mutantdevle wrote:

I was thinking about whether it was worth all of us sharing what quest conditions that we have. That way, we can help each other to unlock our 2nd abilities. That said, we don't know whether each person we help could be mafia. So then, would it turn into only helping the people we trust? If so, then that might lead to some town discourse as different people want to help different people and others try to prevent some from reaching their conditions. Then there's the possibility that the mafia may be able to prevent us from completing our missions, especially if they cannot be completed within the day.
The alternative is to just let people complete their missions on their own. My problem with that is, I don't know about any of y'all but, the process of my quest isn't helpful to the town. (Whereas if I told you what it was, it could easily be achieved without any consequences). Naturally, if we follow this route, people are going to ask for help anyway if they feel that that's the best way to unlock their ability. That then treads into the territory of "so do we actually help this person because we might just be giving more power to the mafia".
I think the default soloution is the 2nd option as I'm fairly certain that was the way the mod intended. There's also the added benefit of being able to use the extent that people go to try and achieve their quest as AI.
I think it's much more in the spirit of the game for us to privately work towards our quests.
But you seem to have come to the same conclusions so
I think you might be town for that. Hm.
It could always be 'Enter a PT with a town player' which a role that I would definitely design because I kind of have before in Steven Universe mafia games, which are entirely hinged around entering PTs with players in order to activate roles. I'd read it as NAI because I don't think that anyone's role-enabling, by design, would be alignment indicative.In post 32, mutantdevle wrote:Wait, can we infer that MariaR is town from her quest?

I don't think Gamma and Maria are on the same scumteam if either is scum here.
Basically, Gamma would be complicit with trying to make Maria's needs look townie and has no reason to doubtcast this way if scum with Maria.

dunno :/
There's no way that scum have roles that will unfairly tip the balance of the game if enabled--that's awful design and if it is the case, then the game was somewhat compromised before it began.
I put trust in the mod, though, and believe fully that the interactions we get out of enabling and the likelier chance of enables being on town than scum means that the mechanic, in general, should drive engagement and be, ostensibly, pro-town. It does risk tilting role-info to scum and allows for clever scum to power up very fast but that's pretty much all it allows them so we're probably fine playing towards it.
I do get your own back-and-forth about Maria based on the sincerity of her posts, though.
+1.

You have raised a valid thought though, do you think that the mafia are going to have specifically anti-town quests? Because if so, then that's a solid reason for everyone to claim their quests.
I don't know that this discussion is fruitful, though, and I'm very against people claiming in a closed role-madness setup.
I totally get this.In post 37, Gamma Emerald wrote:I guess the best way to describe my quest is “disruptive”. Don’t care to say more for now.
I think it’s possible but kinda don’t feel we’d be dealing with mafia having specifically anti-town quests.
I actually feel like it's very likely that there's anti-town quests mixed about the whole of the setup.
Reminds me of my Bloodborne mafia where I rewarded town players for lynching other town players.
The idea was that if town roles get powered up with the loss of other town roles, it somewhat mitigates swing.
But that setup had other problems.
I don't think claiming quests is a great idea for exactly the reason you kind of came to here;In post 38, Nibbui wrote:It's not necessarily "anti-town", but let's look at an example:
A quest that is about being put on L-1 that day but surviving.
It's not "anti-town" in the sense that will do permanent damage to town or anything, it just kinda looks like a scum quest.
Idk if it's a good idea to claim quests, because it may end up revealing what kind of role townies might have while scum can maybe fakeclaim?
Like, maybe it's not a bad idea but it's something to be thought a lot before doing. Also, although I'm quite confident that at least one scum may have a scummy quest, I dunno if all of them have scummy quests at all.
Also, sometimes townies may have a not-so-good-looking quest as well, it can happen that maybe someone with a quest similar to my example is town, and then not only would we be giving scum a lot of info, we would be clinging in to a sloppy rope.
JJH spent a lot of time doing the quests and setup, I wouldn't be confident that there is such a cheesy way to go about scum hunting.
If we get to know the quest of someone by other means though, it might not be a bad idea to wonder if it's scummy or not.
It's incredibly easy for scum to secretly fulfill their quest but to claim something absolutely false--shit, they could even claim stuff that makes town waste uses of their roles or puts town in compromised positions.
I would think long and hard before gating how you play and the actions you submit based solely on fulfilling someone else's quest.
I'm working toward's Maria's being fulfilled, but that's because I am fairly sure I'd get a lot out of having a PT with her and the only way it's waste is if she's some sort of PT-blocker or PT-based-killer but that'd all be incredibly evident after the PT stuff happens and would shade her as absolutely guilty.
I do agree with this--wouldn't an anti-town quest be something like 'hammer a town player' or 'get someone to use their doctor action on you instead of another townie'?In post 39, Gamma Emerald wrote:Wait why is that the first thing you could come up with?

I'll take it at face value, though.
There's no reason to believe an investigative check doesn't yield a guilty on Nico.
People are best served using such checks on other players anyway.

Unless you somehow just got no roles at all, which is kinda sketchy.
Since that's THE FUCKING SETUP.
"16. If you win a minigame, you will unlock your minigame role PM.
17. If you win a minigame and your minigame role PM is already unlocked, you can choose another player who will unlock their minigame role PM.

Gg ez
VOTE: NK15
The mafia nightkill is not in the hands of town so it is obviously not part of that verification process.
Which is kinda the problem with the claim here - openly claiming this is actually quite dumb for town, and MariaR isn't dumb.
No, this claim came from Mafia.
This away... the entrance from firebringer is bad because it is not committed. It is not a random vote. It's just stating the obvious in a careful manner. What I did was to make it an elephant from the molehill it was. It is not this bad. It is a slight scumtell, but not very reliably(but enough to push early) And the sheeping was... informative, at least. What gives me concerns more is post 12 because that is useless fluff like crazy. As such I don't really mind Chibi's vote on 18.
Nibbui is the first to vote somewhere else. And MariaR and the claim detract from that wagon early, too...
If we flip MariaR scum then Firebringer is very very likely scum as well. And based on Maria's play she is likely scum.-

Ya'll done done it. Here's the issue, though; When anyone quotes my entire wall post, I have to do another wall post like it and INCLUDE the previous wall posts in the damn thing. I also can't put ANY OF THAT behind spoiler= posts. So strap yourself in.
I'll try to make bold points for when I'm really trying to direct something at someone, so it's a little easier to skim, but here's everything so far...
Please don't make me have to quote this AND the contents of this post.In post 104, Varsoon wrote:This is that shit I don't like. The WHOLE point of this game is that it's a U-PICK where YOU PICK the roles.
I can't fathom why someone would want to play as characters they DID NOT PICK.
This reminds me a lot of my frustrations with my very own favorite-game-designed-and-run-onsite, Final Fantasy Tactics Mafia.
In FFT Mafia (which I designed, of course!), players were all given secret alt accounts to post from that aligned with the Zodiac signs that each represented,
Those players then double-drafted their roles in what was, really, honestly, the best draft phase that anyone has conceived of.
Basically, players had access to every JOB CLASS role in the game, but only knew the FIRST ABILITIES of each while having a somewhat nebulous flavor explanation of what the class does.
After the first phase of private picking, everyone learns ALL THE SECRET ABILITIES of the first JOB CLASS they picked and then they get to post and pick again at the end of that posting phase.
So it was this really involved semi-closed draft. Town, of course, tried to game it, but scum was secretly.Spoiler: Spoilers for that game, you should REALLY read it!
Anyway, as you can see, replacements SEVERELY compromised the integrity of that game. It ran to completion, but it infuriated me that the anonymity of the setup was oft-compromised with replace-ins making it that much harder to actually read a slot, but, furthermore, those replace-ins were never a part of the semi-open double-draft, so it was like they had no agency over their role which was a huge part of that game.
Anyway, what I'm saying is, shame on you Carcalilly for replacing out. Or eating a ban. Or whatever happened. I mean, I guess I get if IRL stuff came up and bit you in the ass but if you just made picks and replaced out for no good reason, gross.
In fact;
@MOD: Did Carcalilly make the picks for that slot or did you let Nibbul make the picks?
Me too! I was surprised it finally did. I've been pretty excited for it, but yeah, it is a U-Pick, so it makes sense, especially given that JJH had to design these interesting and multifaceted roles.In post 4, Firebringer wrote:I thought this game would never start
Why do you vote FB here? I thought it took a long time for the game to start, too, but that doesn't make me scum.
Seems like a pretty NAI thing to push, I don't understand.
Are you just reaction fishing? On Firebringer? One of the most volatile players in the game?
It really looks like you're kicking a wasp's nest and hoping that people will blame the wasps for being violent.
I'm gonna keep an eye on how you try to handle game momentum moving forward.
Good shit on calling that out but I wish you'd be more critical.In post 6, Firebringer wrote:nice rvs vote
Posts like this don't give me much more insight into your alignment;
I'm tempted to call it town, because it's so Firebringer devil-may-care attitude, but I think you might just play that way regardless.
Do you actually have some criticism of this vote or how do you think of it? I'm reading this as sarcasm, btw, but when I look at it further...
You absolutely deny the vote any weight by calling it out as an RVS vote, like, that they don't have legitimate reason to vote you.
It's interesting that you'd do that, but we'll see if that sort of denial and sarcastic survivalism is indicative of align or not, I suppose?
This is trash. If everyone just sheeped you on this petty interaction, we'd have no info at the end of D1.In post 7, Not Known 15 wrote:
...In post 6, Firebringer wrote:nice rvs vote
scum 1 found.
Sheep me.
What I take from this is that you're trying to give your vote pressure and reassert it as meaningful after Firebringer's denial.
I can get the town mentality of doing so (trying to reaffirm pressure) but the means of doing it is so anti-town that right now I'd rather vote you than FB.
Ugggh openwolfing and pooky-tells are supposed to be my thing, Firebringer.In post 8, Firebringer wrote:I would sheep u if I wasn't a wolf.
But on the real, I'm reading the further sarcasm and nonplussed response as you letting the vote and double-down roll off your back.
You're being consistent, at least, which feels better than not.
I'm curious if Not Known 15 will be as critical of this post as Firebringer's entry.In post 9, Gamma Emerald wrote:

This post rings more as joyous at the start whereas FB's seems a bit more 'ugh it's about time' kinda stuff
So I imagine you got a role you're excited for, or even an alignment?
What's the optics on Gamma's enjoyment of playing each alignment?
Does he like playing scum or town way more than the other?
It's wild that there's already a bit of an interaction happening on-page so far and you've decided to ignore it ENTIRELY to push this vanity-joke.In post 10, mutantdevle wrote:Can we vote for past jjh?

Ngl I'm already loving my role primarily because it looks like the mod properly researched into my obscure picks. My minigame flavour is just perfect. So thanks for that jjh
I don't get it.
I do appreciate the flavor and role design so far, too, but I really want you to focus more on the game.
You continuing to deny that seems like a further denial of the severity of NK15's vote, which is in-line with Firebringer's approach.
Lightly thinking you two are in the same camp, at least, mentally.
Won't be surprised if FB likes you.

@MOD: Consider using a mod color that looks fine on the various Mafiascum.net templates.
For instance, white looks neat on MafBlack but is completely illegible on MafSilver.
Just something to consider.
Yup, called it. FB's engaging with Mutant's off-topic post. Reads as further vote-distancing.In post 12, Firebringer wrote:past jjh is dead. this is currernt jjh which will soon also be past jjh who will die.
we should instead vote for future jjh but future jjh will never come because when it is the future it will be the current and then past and we all know the past is just history and history is dead.
so we can't lynch anyone when u think about it.
our past selves aren't our current selves and we aren't ever our future selves until it becomes current and then it will pass and the idea of the self is kind of a touchy subject, not even sure if there is such a thing of the self and we are all just in mass delusion that a self exists for convenience.
But it's pretty postmodern to acknowledge that your past self is not your current or future self even.
This is why we write shopping lists, because we know right now what we need, but we are acknowledging that our future self will not know despite still being 'us'.
It's some pretty Derrida-level stuff, actually factually.
If you actually are interested in this stuff and aren't just shitposting, I suggest reading 'Signature Event Context': http://lab404.com/misc/ltdinc.pdf
Goes a lot into writing as a representation of communication of the self of the past, which arises from an acknowledgement of the absence of that self in the future.
It's like 25 pages of verbose, ambling French translated into English so I'll save you the scrying and just grab the best bit of it:
What are in effect the essential predicates in a minimal determination of the classical concept of writing?
1) A written sign, in the current meaning of this word, is a mark that subsists,
one which does not exhaust itself in the moment of its inscription and which can
give rise to an iteration in the absence and beyond the presence of the empirically
determined subject who, in a given context, has emitted or produced it. This is
what has enabled us, at least traditionally, to distinguish a "written" from an
"oral" communication.
2) At the same time, a written sign carries with it a force that breaks with its
context, that is, with the collectivity of presences organizing the moment of its
inscription. This breaking force (force de rupture) is not an accidental predicate
but the very structure of the written text. In the case of a so-called "real" context,
what I have just asserted is all too evident. This allegedly real context includes a
certain "present" of the inscription, the presence of the writer to what he has
written, the entire environment and the horizon of his experience, and above all
the intention, the wanting-to-say-what-he-means, which animates his inscription
at a given moment. But the sign possesses the characteristic of being readable
even if the moment of its production is irrevocably lost and even if I do not know
what its alleged author-scriptor consciously intended to say at the moment he
wrote it, i.e. abandoned it to its essential drift. Ar:; far as the internal semiotic
context is concerned, the force of the rupture is no less important: by virtue of its
essential iterability, a written syntagma can always be detached from the chain in
which it is inserted or given without causing it to lose all possibility of functioning,
if not all possibility of "communicating," precisely. One can perhaps come to
recognize other possibilities in it by inscribing it or grafting it onto other chains.
No context can entirely enclose it. Nor any code, the code here being both the
possibility and impossibility of writing, of its essential iterability (repetition/alterity).
3) This force of rupture is tied to the spacing [espacement 1 that constitutes the
written sign: spacing which separates it from other elements of the internal contextual
chain (the always open possibility of its disengagement and graft), but
also from all forms of present reference (whether past or future in the modified
form of the present that is past or to come), objective or subjective. This spacing
is not the simple negativity of a lacuna but rather the emergence of the mark. It
does not remain, however, as the labor of the negative in the service of meaning,
of the living concept, of the telos, supersedable and reducible in the Aufhebung
of a dialectic.

I appreciate Gamma being forthright here.In post 29, Gamma Emerald wrote:In post 24, MariaR wrote:I become death proof.
I was expecting to have to dance around this more, based on a similar play Kokichi Oma made in Deja Vu Mafia (RIP). Thank you for providing these specifics, they make me much more inclined to aid you. While making you immune to some sort of a kill is kinda unsavory, it’s better bulletproof than Lynchproof as lynch is town’s main weapon while the gun is a more rogue tool.
Unfortunately I cannot aid you right now but I’ll do what I can to help. This is dependent on you remaining not-a-scumread FYI.
This is probably the one decent post in the game so far.

If we all out our quests, then mafia also know who is role-enabled and can base their kills off of that.In post 31, mutantdevle wrote:

Is that your quest?In post 19, MariaR wrote:Hello I need to be added to any type of PT thank you.
I was thinking about whether it was worth all of us sharing what quest conditions that we have. That way, we can help each other to unlock our 2nd abilities. That said, we don't know whether each person we help could be mafia. So then, would it turn into only helping the people we trust? If so, then that might lead to some town discourse as different people want to help different people and others try to prevent some from reaching their conditions. Then there's the possibility that the mafia may be able to prevent us from completing our missions, especially if they cannot be completed within the day.
The alternative is to just let people complete their missions on their own. My problem with that is, I don't know about any of y'all but, the process of my quest isn't helpful to the town. (Whereas if I told you what it was, it could easily be achieved without any consequences). Naturally, if we follow this route, people are going to ask for help anyway if they feel that that's the best way to unlock their ability. That then treads into the territory of "so do we actually help this person because we might just be giving more power to the mafia".
I think the default soloution is the 2nd option as I'm fairly certain that was the way the mod intended. There's also the added benefit of being able to use the extent that people go to try and achieve their quest as AI.
I think it's much more in the spirit of the game for us to privately work towards our quests.
But you seem to have come to the same conclusions so
I think you might be town for that. Hm.
It could always be 'Enter a PT with a town player' which a role that I would definitely design because I kind of have before in Steven Universe mafia games, which are entirely hinged around entering PTs with players in order to activate roles. I'd read it as NAI because I don't think that anyone's role-enabling, by design, would be alignment indicative.In post 32, mutantdevle wrote:Wait, can we infer that MariaR is town from her quest?

I like your gusto though.
I don't think Gamma and Maria are on the same scumteam if either is scum here.
Basically, Gamma would be complicit with trying to make Maria's needs look townie and has no reason to doubtcast this way if scum with Maria.
Enabling unknown factors in other player's roles should benefit us more than hurt us, regardless.In post 35, Nibbui wrote:

dunno :/
There's no way that scum have roles that will unfairly tip the balance of the game if enabled--that's awful design and if it is the case, then the game was somewhat compromised before it began.
I put trust in the mod, though, and believe fully that the interactions we get out of enabling and the likelier chance of enables being on town than scum means that the mechanic, in general, should drive engagement and be, ostensibly, pro-town. It does risk tilting role-info to scum and allows for clever scum to power up very fast but that's pretty much all it allows them so we're probably fine playing towards it.
I do get your own back-and-forth about Maria based on the sincerity of her posts, though.
+1.
I don't think scum are going to have anti-town quests, just anti-town powerups.In post 36, mutantdevle wrote:
It's not a full-on anti-town quest lol. It's not a quest I can achieve by myself so I'd need to work with everyone to achieve it. But I can see a way in which it could make things go badly.

I imagine that we are either going to achieve my quest condition naturally or we are going to come close to it and I'm going to be like "hey, can we quickly do this:" to achieve it.

You have raised a valid thought though, do you think that the mafia are going to have specifically anti-town quests? Because if so, then that's a solid reason for everyone to claim their quests.
I don't know that this discussion is fruitful, though, and I'm very against people claiming in a closed role-madness setup.
I totally get this.In post 37, Gamma Emerald wrote:I guess the best way to describe my quest is “disruptive”. Don’t care to say more for now.
I think it’s possible but kinda don’t feel we’d be dealing with mafia having specifically anti-town quests.
I actually feel like it's very likely that there's anti-town quests mixed about the whole of the setup.
Reminds me of my Bloodborne mafia where I rewarded town players for lynching other town players.
The idea was that if town roles get powered up with the loss of other town roles, it somewhat mitigates swing.
But that setup had other problems.
I don't think claiming quests is a great idea for exactly the reason you kind of came to here;In post 38, Nibbui wrote:It's not necessarily "anti-town", but let's look at an example:
A quest that is about being put on L-1 that day but surviving.
It's not "anti-town" in the sense that will do permanent damage to town or anything, it just kinda looks like a scum quest.
Idk if it's a good idea to claim quests, because it may end up revealing what kind of role townies might have while scum can maybe fakeclaim?
Like, maybe it's not a bad idea but it's something to be thought a lot before doing. Also, although I'm quite confident that at least one scum may have a scummy quest, I dunno if all of them have scummy quests at all.
Also, sometimes townies may have a not-so-good-looking quest as well, it can happen that maybe someone with a quest similar to my example is town, and then not only would we be giving scum a lot of info, we would be clinging in to a sloppy rope.
JJH spent a lot of time doing the quests and setup, I wouldn't be confident that there is such a cheesy way to go about scum hunting.
If we get to know the quest of someone by other means though, it might not be a bad idea to wonder if it's scummy or not.
It's incredibly easy for scum to secretly fulfill their quest but to claim something absolutely false--shit, they could even claim stuff that makes town waste uses of their roles or puts town in compromised positions.
I would think long and hard before gating how you play and the actions you submit based solely on fulfilling someone else's quest.
I'm working toward's Maria's being fulfilled, but that's because I am fairly sure I'd get a lot out of having a PT with her and the only way it's waste is if she's some sort of PT-blocker or PT-based-killer but that'd all be incredibly evident after the PT stuff happens and would shade her as absolutely guilty.
I do agree with this--wouldn't an anti-town quest be something like 'hammer a town player' or 'get someone to use their doctor action on you instead of another townie'?In post 39, Gamma Emerald wrote:Wait why is that the first thing you could come up with?

Since that's THE FUCKING SETUP.

Cute that you're trying to twist this to being about a 'town nightkill' when in literally the site standard is that scum are the ones that do nightkills and town have 'Vigilante shots' and your original post that Elbirn took umbrage with only states 'Nightkill' and makes no clear indication that you intended 'town nightkill'.In post 103, Not Known 15 wrote:

3. Can you illustrate what's incorrect and wrong about the logic? I'm not really following.
@MariaR: Why did you claim your bulletproof in thread instead of keeping it a secret?
That's my biggest point of contention when it comes to your play here.
I've got some ideas on it and I'd really like you to tell me (preferably in a PT) but it doesn't look like JJH is going to give us a PT just because I asked nicely.
Which, btw, was a test. I was curious if you were a role where people had to ask for a PT with you to get one but you couldn't claim that. It's the kind of role I might design if I was a little loonier. I don't like Post Restrictions very much.

It's fairly site-standard to claim Miller D1 so that the cop doesn't waste a shot on you.In post 109, mutantdevle wrote:
Why have you decided to claim this?In post 78, NicoRobin wrote:Oh, and I am a Miller.
It's somewhat problematic, in my eyes, to do so, given that it tips the scum off to look for cop softs, so I'm not sure it helps town all that much. There's also a fairly standard agreement to not let Millers make it to LYLO (WIFOM reasons usually) which makes them players that the scum just avoid killing. This is why, as a designer, I'd suggest coupling Miller with a decent role to make up for it. Think, "What role, if confirmed by a cop as town, might be an issue?" and then you have a decent reason to make a miller in a setup. That said, putting cops in a setup is kinda a shitty idea anyway, that role sucks.
Possible rolecops can also confirm the role, provided it's not a scum miller, which seems fairly cruel for a mod to include in a setup with a rolecop given that miller tends to imply it's a town role.
iirc, you claim miller a lot, either due to being miller, or just as a lie.In post 110, NicoRobin wrote:@Varsoon Why is me being Miller hard to believe? Also, why does casting a RVS vote make me anti-town?
I don't read your vote as an RVS vote given that we were already out of RVS.
You should've been focused on the game at hand.
It pings me, but I don't think it's out of line of your usual town play so
I'm going to have to spend some more time figuring you out.

Gotta be honest here I but I found your post just a little irritating. My biggest gripe is how you criticise a lot of people for doing NAI stuff and fluff posts yet a large part of your post has a lot of fluffy stuff in it. Like, if your post is THAT large, and you expect people to actually read it, surely you'd keep your own fluff to a minimum? I mean, I read all of it (except the parts where you had like a paragraph of fluff or something) and I'llprobablycontinue to read all of it. But the easier you make it on us the better. Also, I can't possibly fathom how you actually care about all the questions you asked to everyone, do you really expect a response to all of them? Are you going to chase people for responses or what? I was kinda thinking if you were just doing all that to look busy and gamesolvey but I'm more sure that it's just you taking the game beyond seriously and (unrealistically) expecting everyone else to do the same.
The reason no one was really talking about FB/NK15's interactions page 1 is because, y'know, it's RVS. Am a wrong in thinking that posts and especially votes on page 1 and 2 tend to be more jokey and taken less seriously? Maybe I am because I recall being criticised for my RVS votes in previous games but idk the way you really ripped into all the posts felt like you weren't even acknowledging that the game had just started. Meh.
Otherwise, I can post normally.
My first post of the game was to be a wall post like that.
As you can see, I goofed that up, but eventually got to it.
I'd prefer to be able to just post normally.
I'm aware a lot of my first wall was fluff. I apologize for that.
I do care about my questions and expect responses but if they don't come, I won't blame people, really.
Like, I don't fully expect every player to read every one of these walls in their entirety.
I do think I'm taking the game more seriously than most, especially the people STILL fluffposting about dancing.
But we're only on page 6, and you're right, a lot of that content that I viewed as AI might just be RVS rubbish.
That said, I'd argue EVERYTHING can be Alignment Indicative and that RVS posts do hold weight.
Just not as much as later posts might.
People who prescribe to an 'RVS is meaningless' philosophy strip it of any use and allow scum to hide in that.
I ain't bout it.

The WHOLE point of this game is that it's a U-PICK where YOU PICK the roles.
I can't fathom why someone would want to play as characters they DID NOT PICK.
I mean, most of the time you don't get to choose what role or alignment you're going to play as. I replaced in because I wanted a more mechanical complex setup and I indeed wanted to fake claim or do some kind of gambit if I got to roll scum (I've a good time doing it).
Also, about the question if it was my pick or Carcalilly's pick, it was Carcalilly's I guess because I didn't get to pick anything. If there is info that Carcalilly should know and I don't, maybe we can fix that with the mod just telling me that particular info?
Your wall kinda...mmmmh, sorry to say this, but sounds a bit cherrypick at times? maybe it's because you needed to comment on all of that or something, but yeah, I'm not answering most of those questions or going to quote weird parts of it because idk what to do with it, it's too long and idk if this is common coming from you.
My vote on Chibi was really random though, and I voted Gamma to see if would keep asking questions and etc. By the way NSG pointing out her wiki for me, if I stretch it, might be very slightly town indicative but I feel that's just NAI. I think she said that because she knows I read and enjoy a lot of her games and games from people I find good as a certain alignment in hope of trying to learn something. Also I had just implied that I needed to see a recent game of hers as scum.
I usually post multiple times in a row and I never quote posts like this in multiples.
I do not think Carcalilly's picks' flavor matters, or it shouldn't matter, for you. That said, part of the point of a U-Pick's design is that, y'know. You pick.
Thanks for your explanation on NSG, that makes sense. Your votes also follow a lot better for me, too.
I'm fairly certainyou are town.

NK15's explanation of his MariaR/nightkill statement makes sense, but I can't 100% shake the possibility of it being a recovery from a slip up. It feels pretty genuine though? Plus the people who know him are saying that this is pretty typical of him. I think it's likely that his logic was from a town POV and just had an odd choice of terminology.
I don't really know what to make of the Miller claim, I was a Miller in my most recent game and avoided claiming until the final day because I didn't want to get insta-lynched on D1 or policy lynched later on. According to you guys and the wiki though it's apparently common practice to claim ASAP so I guess that I'm justbaaaaarelyleaning towards believing the claim at the moment. Miller is a pretty awkward role in normals but in a theme game with unusual roles it might actually be pretty interesting, I'm really looking forward to seeing what kinds of cool roles jjh came up with!
Ok I'm just rambling now to avoid having to actually read that wall. Ugh.
I'd still be fine with a lynch there D1, even.
It's very likely Nico's role has more than Miller attached to it.
That said, I've already been over why Nico's claim itself is NAI but why Nico's play around the claim seems town.

Why are you asking me and not Nibbui who came to the same conclusion?How did it seem obvious?
What did he say to make it seem obvious?
Walk me through this like I am a child.
"the process of my quest isn't helpful to the town. (Whereas if I told you what it was, it could easily be achieved without any consequences)"
So it's something that doesn't really affect town in a meaningful way neither positively nor negatively, and can be easily controlled. Getting a certain number of votes immediately jumps to mind. Or could be to do with deadlines, achieving a lynch before/after a certain time limit. I initially also thought maybe being targeted by a night action but that doesn't really fit.
'It's not a full-on anti-town quest lol. It's not a quest I can achieve by myself so I'd need to work with everyone to achieve it. But I can see a way in which it could make things go badly."
It's not inherently harmful to town but can result in something bad happening. Again, the things I mentioned above can all fit.
"I imagine that we are either going to achieve my quest condition naturally or we are going to come close to it and I'm going to be like "hey, can we quickly do this:" to achieve it. It would make more sense if I claim it."
"My quest isn't necessarily disruptive though, just that it could be."
So yeah. Between the things I came up with, getting a certain number of votes (Eg. L-1) seemed to make the most sense considering his descriptions. When I saw Nibbui come to the same conclusion I thought it was pretty cool since I'm not usually any good at logical deductions, but since he also came up with the same thing, that means my logic was probably sound.
What character? I don't remember mutant claiming a character. I guessed it based on the above reasoning.I assume this is because of something to do with the character?
Uh, what? I'm not even sure what you're trying to say here. How does this make sense as a reply to my joke about Gamma 'revealing' my flavour? (And yes, flavour has a 'u' :3)Maybe don't make obvious picks with easy solves for how they'd render into Mafia?
Like damn, son.
I thought there was a character named 'Nevermind' or something.
I think I got really mixed up is all.
So the flavor thing is actually not a huge deal but
Let's say I picked a VERY OBSCURE character called KILLMAN from a show.
And all KILLMAN does is kill people. That's it. Nothing else.
Well if I claimed that flavor, people could probably figure out my role has something to do with killing people.
Does that make sense?

2: This seems a bit anal about the whole thing. Yes someone picking and then replacing sucks because they don't get to play with a flavor they picked out themselves. But it feels like you're treating the as compromised just through this. I can see what you mean with FFT, and can call your comparison with the Murder at King's Landing game SAD ran which was also an anonymous alt game and iirc some players kinda pushed how far they could go with that, including a hydra that had some problems. fyi Carcalilly picked her roles and then flaked (which is a repeat offense, and probably will result in me not letting her into games I mod anytime soon), otherwise we'd have had need of a replacement a lot sooner.

35: good thought, though lacking in alignment indication.
37: I actually followed SU2 Mafia from around the midpoint, and iirc the Climax meter was another form of swing mitigation. So yeah I get what you're talking about.
44: Brings up something I didn't notice. why DID you ask that question, Nibbui? why does you having that at the top of your head matter?
39 & 46: So as I said, I had a quest in a past game where I could increase my usefulness if I was brought to L-1 and survived. This is the game, fyi.
49: your sarcasm radar must be broken.
52: this should go in the jokes section but this is addressed at me and the jokes section is meant to be skippable. I made that joke because one of Maria's alts is the character Sonia Nevermind.
55: noticing Varsoon playing the paranoia card a lot? Nagl.
59: Directed at NSG
61: I was like “ok, if it wasn’t a reaction test I don’t see much that I take issue with”. I was neutral on the vote pretty much.
64: I’m gonna give you the short version, if you want the long version just say so. A player who doesn’t play here anymore, Infinity324, has a consistent track record of reading me based on how engaged I was. I’ve broken free from that meta somewhat but I still believe that certain ways I behave are exclusive to one alignment over the other. For instance I will sometimes try to sit in the background as scum if I don’t like the way things are going or don’t want to upset the path of events.
81: For some reason I just find the way Varsoon is playing around Nico and the Miller claim awful.
79, 82, 86: This is serious. I’d definitely expect her to have a more emotive reaction to what I did.
89 and 92: Giving preferential treatment to Maria I see.
94: are you mocking me? I think you’re mocking me.
So I agree with a lot of Varsoon's theoryposting, but that is pretty prevalent which gives me an IIoA vibe, plus I feel like his grump-ness might be scummy. That grump-ness read is meta based though and I need to check it. Also the way he’s interacting with everyone gives me the feeling not everyone is starting at the same point for him, indicating hidden knowledge.

Well, I'd still classify vigilante shots as nightkills. No, Mafia shooting a bulletproof vest is good, but that wasn't what I was saying. I was saying that it is nearly impossible to verify that BP vest without wasting a nightkill. Would mafia use their nightkill to prove that when its out in the open? No. Only a nightkill in the hands of town could do that, but that's suboptimal for town because it is only telling us that bulleproof was not a lie.In post 104, Varsoon wrote:This is that shit I don't like. The WHOLE point of this game is that it's a U-PICK where YOU PICK the roles.
I can't fathom why someone would want to play as characters they DID NOT PICK.
This reminds me a lot of my frustrations with my very own favorite-game-designed-and-run-onsite, Final Fantasy Tactics Mafia.
In FFT Mafia (which I designed, of course!), players were all given secret alt accounts to post from that aligned with the Zodiac signs that each represented,
Those players then double-drafted their roles in what was, really, honestly, the best draft phase that anyone has conceived of.
Basically, players had access to every JOB CLASS role in the game, but only knew the FIRST ABILITIES of each while having a somewhat nebulous flavor explanation of what the class does.
After the first phase of private picking, everyone learns ALL THE SECRET ABILITIES of the first JOB CLASS they picked and then they get to post and pick again at the end of that posting phase.
So it was this really involved semi-closed draft. Town, of course, tried to game it, but scum was secretly.Spoiler: Spoilers for that game, you should REALLY read it!
Anyway, as you can see, replacements SEVERELY compromised the integrity of that game. It ran to completion, but it infuriated me that the anonymity of the setup was oft-compromised with replace-ins making it that much harder to actually read a slot, but, furthermore, those replace-ins were never a part of the semi-open double-draft, so it was like they had no agency over their role which was a huge part of that game.
Anyway, what I'm saying is, shame on you Carcalilly for replacing out. Or eating a ban. Or whatever happened. I mean, I guess I get if IRL stuff came up and bit you in the ass but if you just made picks and replaced out for no good reason, gross.
In fact;
@MOD: Did Carcalilly make the picks for that slot or did you let Nibbul make the picks?
Me too! I was surprised it finally did. I've been pretty excited for it, but yeah, it is a U-Pick, so it makes sense, especially given that JJH had to design these interesting and multifaceted roles.In post 4, Firebringer wrote:I thought this game would never start

You absolutely deny the vote any weight by calling it out as an RVS vote, like, that they don't have legitimate reason to vote you.
It's interesting that you'd do that, but we'll see if that sort of denial and sarcastic survivalism is indicative of align or not, I suppose?

we should instead vote for future jjh but future jjh will never come because when it is the future it will be the current and then past and we all know the past is just history and history is dead.
so we can't lynch anyone when u think about it.
our past selves aren't our current selves and we aren't ever our future selves until it becomes current and then it will pass and the idea of the self is kind of a touchy subject, not even sure if there is such a thing of the self and we are all just in mass delusion that a self exists for convenience.
But it's pretty postmodern to acknowledge that your past self is not your current or future self even.
This is why we write shopping lists, because we know right now what we need, but we are acknowledging that our future self will not know despite still being 'us'.
It's some pretty Derrida-level stuff, actually factually.
If you actually are interested in this stuff and aren't just shitposting, I suggest reading 'Signature Event Context': http://lab404.com/misc/ltdinc.pdf
Goes a lot into writing as a representation of communication of the self of the past, which arises from an acknowledgement of the absence of that self in the future.
It's like 25 pages of verbose, ambling French translated into English so I'll save you the scrying and just grab the best bit of it:
What are in effect the essential predicates in a minimal determination of the classical concept of writing?
1) A written sign, in the current meaning of this word, is a mark that subsists,
one which does not exhaust itself in the moment of its inscription and which can
give rise to an iteration in the absence and beyond the presence of the empirically
determined subject who, in a given context, has emitted or produced it. This is
what has enabled us, at least traditionally, to distinguish a "written" from an
"oral" communication.
2) At the same time, a written sign carries with it a force that breaks with its
context, that is, with the collectivity of presences organizing the moment of its
inscription. This breaking force (force de rupture) is not an accidental predicate
but the very structure of the written text. In the case of a so-called "real" context,
what I have just asserted is all too evident. This allegedly real context includes a
certain "present" of the inscription, the presence of the writer to what he has
written, the entire environment and the horizon of his experience, and above all
the intention, the wanting-to-say-what-he-means, which animates his inscription
at a given moment. But the sign possesses the characteristic of being readable
even if the moment of its production is irrevocably lost and even if I do not know
what its alleged author-scriptor consciously intended to say at the moment he
wrote it, i.e. abandoned it to its essential drift. Ar:; far as the internal semiotic
context is concerned, the force of the rupture is no less important: by virtue of its
essential iterability, a written syntagma can always be detached from the chain in
which it is inserted or given without causing it to lose all possibility of functioning,
if not all possibility of "communicating," precisely. One can perhaps come to
recognize other possibilities in it by inscribing it or grafting it onto other chains.
No context can entirely enclose it. Nor any code, the code here being both the
possibility and impossibility of writing, of its essential iterability (repetition/alterity).
3) This force of rupture is tied to the spacing [espacement 1 that constitutes the
written sign: spacing which separates it from other elements of the internal contextual
chain (the always open possibility of its disengagement and graft), but
also from all forms of present reference (whether past or future in the modified
form of the present that is past or to come), objective or subjective. This spacing
is not the simple negativity of a lacuna but rather the emergence of the mark. It
does not remain, however, as the labor of the negative in the service of meaning,
of the living concept, of the telos, supersedable and reducible in the Aufhebung
of a dialectic.

I was thinking about whether it was worth all of us sharing what quest conditions that we have. That way, we can help each other to unlock our 2nd abilities. That said, we don't know whether each person we help could be mafia. So then, would it turn into only helping the people we trust? If so, then that might lead to some town discourse as different people want to help different people and others try to prevent some from reaching their conditions. Then there's the possibility that the mafia may be able to prevent us from completing our missions, especially if they cannot be completed within the day.
The alternative is to just let people complete their missions on their own. My problem with that is, I don't know about any of y'all but, the process of my quest isn't helpful to the town. (Whereas if I told you what it was, it could easily be achieved without any consequences). Naturally, if we follow this route, people are going to ask for help anyway if they feel that that's the best way to unlock their ability. That then treads into the territory of "so do we actually help this person because we might just be giving more power to the mafia".
I think the default soloution is the 2nd option as I'm fairly certain that was the way the mod intended. There's also the added benefit of being able to use the extent that people go to try and achieve their quest as AI.
I think it's much more in the spirit of the game for us to privately work towards our quests.
But you seem to have come to the same conclusions so
I think you might be town for that. Hm.
It could always be 'Enter a PT with a town player' which a role that I would definitely design because I kind of have before in Steven Universe mafia games, which are entirely hinged around entering PTs with players in order to activate roles. I'd read it as NAI because I don't think that anyone's role-enabling, by design, would be alignment indicative.In post 32, mutantdevle wrote:Wait, can we infer that MariaR is town from her quest?

There's no way that scum have roles that will unfairly tip the balance of the game if enabled--that's awful design and if it is the case, then the game was somewhat compromised before it began.
I put trust in the mod, though, and believe fully that the interactions we get out of enabling and the likelier chance of enables being on town than scum means that the mechanic, in general, should drive engagement and be, ostensibly, pro-town. It does risk tilting role-info to scum and allows for clever scum to power up very fast but that's pretty much all it allows them so we're probably fine playing towards it.
I do get your own back-and-forth about Maria based on the sincerity of her posts, though.

I don't know that this discussion is fruitful, though, and I'm very against people claiming in a closed role-madness setup.
I totally get this.In post 37, Gamma Emerald wrote:I guess the best way to describe my quest is “disruptive”. Don’t care to say more for now.
I think it’s possible but kinda don’t feel we’d be dealing with mafia having specifically anti-town quests.
I actually feel like it's very likely that there's anti-town quests mixed about the whole of the setup.
Reminds me of my Bloodborne mafia where I rewarded town players for lynching other town players.
The idea was that if town roles get powered up with the loss of other town roles, it somewhat mitigates swing.
But that setup had other problems.
I don't think claiming quests is a great idea for exactly the reason you kind of came to here;In post 38, Nibbui wrote:It's not necessarily "anti-town", but let's look at an example:
A quest that is about being put on L-1 that day but surviving.
It's not "anti-town" in the sense that will do permanent damage to town or anything, it just kinda looks like a scum quest.
Idk if it's a good idea to claim quests, because it may end up revealing what kind of role townies might have while scum can maybe fakeclaim?
Like, maybe it's not a bad idea but it's something to be thought a lot before doing. Also, although I'm quite confident that at least one scum may have a scummy quest, I dunno if all of them have scummy quests at all.
Also, sometimes townies may have a not-so-good-looking quest as well, it can happen that maybe someone with a quest similar to my example is town, and then not only would we be giving scum a lot of info, we would be clinging in to a sloppy rope.
JJH spent a lot of time doing the quests and setup, I wouldn't be confident that there is such a cheesy way to go about scum hunting.
If we get to know the quest of someone by other means though, it might not be a bad idea to wonder if it's scummy or not.
It's incredibly easy for scum to secretly fulfill their quest but to claim something absolutely false--shit, they could even claim stuff that makes town waste uses of their roles or puts town in compromised positions.
I would think long and hard before gating how you play and the actions you submit based solely on fulfilling someone else's quest.
I'm working toward's Maria's being fulfilled, but that's because I am fairly sure I'd get a lot out of having a PT with her and the only way it's waste is if she's some sort of PT-blocker or PT-based-killer but that'd all be incredibly evident after the PT stuff happens and would shade her as absolutely guilty.
I do agree with this--wouldn't an anti-town quest be something like 'hammer a town player' or 'get someone to use their doctor action on you instead of another townie'?In post 39, Gamma Emerald wrote:Wait why is that the first thing you could come up with?
I agree; let's put our faith in the mod and play as normal.In post 40, Gamma Emerald wrote:And yeah, given jjh’s habit of picking apart roles I think he knows to avoid making something easily gamed.

I always found Dang Ole Ron Paul to be cringy anime malarky.

1. NK15 needs to drive attention elsewhere but isn't reacting to the votes on himself outright.

The mafia nightkill is not in the hands of town so it is obviously not part of that verification process.
Which is kinda the problem with the claim here - openly claiming this is actually quite dumb for town, and MariaR isn't dumb.
No, this claim came from Mafia.
This away... the entrance from firebringer is bad because it is not committed. It is not a random vote. It's just stating the obvious in a careful manner. What I did was to make it an elephant from the molehill it was. It is not this bad. It is a slight scumtell, but not very reliably(but enough to push early) And the sheeping was... informative, at least. What gives me concerns more is post 12 because that is useless fluff like crazy. As such I don't really mind Chibi's vote on 18.
Nibbui is the first to vote somewhere else. And MariaR and the claim detract from that wagon early, too...
If we flip MariaR scum then Firebringer is very very likely scum as well. And based on Maria's play she is likely scum.
@NK15: Why are you so sure that MariaR is scum here?
And how is Firebringer likely scum with MariaR?
Right now my pools are:
