This is a closed setup, so there are no details known to us.

what’s your biggest strength as a mafia player? eschewing alignment, just focusing solely on self-perception.

i don't have previous experience playing mafia in this kind of setting, but i think my greatest strength as a player would probably be my ability to articulate/explain myself

and got it - thanks Chumbo!

i come from a chat mafia background where tone is an excellent tell, and ive converted that into forum format as a basis to begin my early game pushes.

As far my view on nepenthe's tone, I think his tone has been a little strange, but I don't know what his normal tone is yet.

okay thanks - was there a line in particular that made you feel that way?

i've caught up on backreading (i thought i'd missed way more than i did) and my main take is dkkoba comes off as needlessly aggressive and quick to jump to conclusions that i don't see. i'd normally find that behavior scummy, but i don't know if it's actually an alignment tell for them and i don't want to be wrong about that when i'm not confident. dkkoba, do you have any past games i can look at?

DkKoba · Post Post #61 (ISO) » Mon Jan 18, 2021 10:10 am

im generally a hyper aggressive player that actually.. gets scumread for that early extremely often.

if i'm thinking of the right place- i've played there, too. won a few trophies. it's actually where my skepticism of tone comes from.

i think you want me to do that because it would help you understand my thought process a bit better, but that's not my end goal. i'm trying to understand exactly where your read on me comes from.

WHY DO I KEEP DOING THAT. i have to figure out the mechanics of this site.

DkKoba · Post Post #69 (ISO) » Mon Jan 18, 2021 10:14 am

im gonna find out

lenora · Post Post #70 (ISO) » Mon Jan 18, 2021 10:14 am

i wouldn't consider the aggression itself an alignment tell. more-so it felt like people made posts that seemed null or fine to me so i wasn't sure why you called them scummy

do we know how many mafia are in this game or is everything closed?

DkKoba · Post Post #71 (ISO) » Mon Jan 18, 2021 10:14 am

9p = 2 scum.

i was assuming 3 but that'd probably make more sense for 10p.
