People have different methods to decide who is obvtown and who isn't, so just because you feel like you're obvtown doesn't mean other people will see you in same way. If your goal is to become obvtown, you have do things that are obvtown in their POV, not yours. Also, people are extremely paranoid in mafia games and often their actions are driven by their paranoia rather than logic

I dunno, I’ve never considered myself superstitious before but I might make an exception in this case.
I know that people will read it, but what if someone else makes secret with that name and everyone will think it's us? :lol:

Well, I suggest to find something you enjoy instead of doing something you hate, but maybe I don't have enough self loathing to understand satisfaction in playing mafia while you hate it

Ofc hatred gives strength, that's a whole purpose of it - give unquestionable reason to do something, often to do something you wouldn't do otherwise.

Sure, it's biological, some relic from times, when people lived in caves and had immense amount of unreasonable fears, so they needed a way to overcome them

I dream of a world where mafia could actually be WOAT proof but then, I no longer believe in Santa Claus or world peace. :/

While I agree that focusing on your own mistakes is important, but mafia isn't LoL, you don't get better teammates, when you become better, you still have to play with same terrible teammates and it just becomes more infuriating as you would see more of their mistakes

RC, who is towns opponent in mafia? Scum or town itself? I'm at the point, where I believe that town competes with themselves to solve game, while scum is trying to disrupt them as best as they can and win, when town runs out of time so to say

Nah, it sucks, cause other people don't put their efforts or do things to hinder you. Usually that's scum's job and lynching/killing them should win you games, but way too often these people turns out to be on your side

Satisfaction is directly proportionate to efforts put and that's true not just for mafia
