Bad Idea Mafia III: Still Bad, Less Broken [GAME OVER]

[esuriospiritus]

do i actually get 2 posy this time? cool

inno hugs

[esuriospiritus]

I havent played 4 years + don't know anyone's meta so I'll have 2 take ur word for it lol

[esuriospiritus]

Think about it for 2 secs PF, i'm sure you can find the advantages

btw def and PP should hypocop

[esuriospiritus]

Ok fine I'll spell it out

1.) It forces some kind of connection between players which can be useful for later analysis
2.) It allows cops to claim their real results without necessarily outing themselves; if they die later we can generally assume their hypo results to be true

Pedit: shea also advertised on the discord, which is how I found out about it

[esuriospiritus]

Don't claim future targets, thanks

[esuriospiritus]

Hypo inno MurderCat.

My first game in years on this site. I can count on one hand the number of people I recognize in the game.

I'll be honest. I thought the thread was going be locked by now too.

i played w/ you once

I think I either played with toogeloo or we talked before. iirc we both learned mafia on gamefaqs waaaaaay back forever ago?

I was bad at it then and I continue to be bad at it now, but it's fun and Among Us hasn't been scratching the itch properly so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[esuriospiritus]

Is there anyone in our game with a history of quoting role pm, self hammering in lylo or anything like that?

i love too throw game's

why are you admitting that peta pan? Do you know who I am?

In the past the gf could day vig and since they are gf they would obv return an innocent. So if mc was gf or day vig they would turn innocent. This is why mc was a bad choice

I doubt goons can shoot. game was broken in favor of town, I think goons shooting could easily brake it for scum. So I don't think Shea would allow this

I wasn't under the impression peta was serious?

(don't ask me why I'm responding to things in reverse chronological order, idk either)

[esuriospiritus]

How do we start this game?

VOTE: the worst

For being weirdly absent

ok, this is a good start so i'll bite

is it weird for the worst

in particular

to be absent? or are you just picking from the list of lurkers at random? because there's like 5 or 6 people who haven't posted

legit question; I don't know anyone's meta as I think I previously mentioned

[esuriospiritus]

oh, the thread's only been open for like 5 hours; somehow it feels like it's been longer than that

because I have no sense of time ever

so yeah I don't think there's anything in particular to be gleaned from someone not posting yet and I'd even go so far as to rescind my label of 'lurkers' on the people who haven't come around yet. People probably have work n shit.

except me, bcuz im' a degenerate

also yeah, riffing off of privateI's post, my read on PF is uh... confused

I feel like the first post or two was really towny and then everything after that has been increasingly sus to the point of it horseshoeing back around to "wait no maybe they're town trying to catch scum going along with an anti-town plan??????"

and then I sat here fors everal minutes trying to decide if such a confused read was even worth posting

and then I thought about how this post is way too long to conform to my hoopla-assigned gimmick and maybe I should break it up into smaller chunks

and then I decided I've probably spammed y'all enough as it is press submit apologize later yolo

[esuriospiritus]

fair

[esuriospiritus]

is the mafia theory consensus on this site still that freely giving out your town reads == more harm than good?

asking for a friend

[esuriospiritus]

why say 'not everyone' when you mean 'zoraster'?

although DS had one post and said basically nothing in it, as well

[esuriospiritus]

also I got hella shit to do today so... u kids have fun, I'll check in late tonight/tomorrow if the game day hasn't already ended by then

[esuriospiritus]

inno petapan

also, pretend I said something equal parts witty and scathing to echovision; I don't have the energy to brain right now (or ever, but etc)

[esuriospiritus]

hahaha I haven't posted in here since day 3

strategic lurking probably wouldn't have been nearly as effective a strategy if the days lasted longer, but... here we are.

[esuriospiritus]

gg, all. Thanks for modding, shea.

[esuriospiritus]

yeah that was me, IIRC

[esuriospiritus]

petapan proposed the hypocop, I just took it and ran with it cuz it seemed towny at first glance (and then only later did I realize the scum benefit to it, lol. My iso 3 or whatever came from my townie heart)
