Newbie 1728: Training Your Dragon Mafia [Game Over]

[Maverick1102]

Actually, it wasn't a valid joke because it wasn't in vote tags or bolded. Technicality?

OH THANK FUCKING GOODNESS.

But seriously. What the even fuck, Rusty? That was bad etiquette. Even if that vote didn't go through, You don't attempt to hammer like that.

[PhantomCobalt]

That is possibly the luckiest mafia moment I've ever seen

Anyone up for a Rusty PL?

[reso]

I'm willing to PL Rusty using a 3 strike system, counting this incident as Strike 1. This is after all a newbie game, and Rusty is here to learn. It would be a disservice to Newbie games in general if we PL someone new to mafia in general because of such a happening.

VOTE: PhantomCobalt

Policy lynching PhantomCobalt for putting me at L-1 without declaring. You should know better. This is not fucking Rusty's fault, it is 90% yours.

[innocentvillager]

Unless I see incontrovertible evidence Phantom isn't scum or Rusty is scum, I'm not moving my vote for the rest of the day. There was no town fucking motivation behind that vote.

If you're saying no town motivation, you're calling it scummy. How is it a PL then?

It was extremely anti town which makes it a PL

Ya before you voted me

[PhantomCobalt]

And to prove that I didn't know, why did I unvote IV after the Rusty vote? Cuz I thought it was L-1 and I didnt want anyone to QH

I was almost going to retract my scumread on you for that until you brought it up yourself

[innocentvillager]

Explain how you thought it was L-2. What did you miss?? Also did you include Rusty's vote when you said it was L-2 (after you invited)?

I missed reso's vote, and i thought it was L-2 after I voted

[hiplop]

Can those without avatars please consider getting one?

It makes it much easier to differentiate between your posting, IMO. Honestly an avatar of anything will be awesome. Thanks!

good tip. Only one left I believe is rusty!

True, unless it's L-1 in a Newbie game lmao. I'm pretty sure this has happened before, where someone got to L-1 and a newbtown hammered on accident.

can confirm. See it a shockingly large amount...and this is surprisingly relevant to whats to come in this game xD. Rsuty, this is an important lesson. Look at the votecount before you vote and make sure everything lines up

So if I tell you my favourite pizza is Hawaiian, how does that affect how you read me?

Because honestly, I strongly feel this is fluff and distraction. Same from IV.

No, but can you see how Reso's and innocent villager's answers say very different things about them as people?

(I'm dumb. Only just realized "IV" is innocent villager. I was somewhat lost )

Fearlessness against what exactly? His initial vote and vote switch was pretty much back-to-back and it was still RVS. What's there to fear in RVS? Are you to be feared then? The only ones to be feared in this game are the ones with that kill without warrant.

Strong questioning. Reso feels very, very town for me right now.

You're quite right. I don't either. And for some reason, he's going V/LA for no apparent reason...

He is likely just busy. Good mafia tip is to try not to read into people's v/la's. Its kinda low for someone to call one as scum when they aren't actually gonna be busy. Give people the benefit of the doubt. That said, Villager definitely is pinging my scumdar. He does seem to be trying to look too *perfect* seems like he is checking his posts over, they don't feel very raw or genuine to me, personally? Obviously not going to vote because the wagon is quite large and we have MUCH more to discuss today.

Anyone up for a Rusty PL?

Policy lynches in newbies are a really, really bad idea. Do you think what he did is more likely to come from town or scum?

Unless I see incontrovertible evidence Phantom isn't scum or Rusty is scum, I'm not moving my vote for the rest of the day. There was no town fucking motivation behind that vote.

I agree somewhat with the conclusion. He should have called it, especially being an SE. However, this raged seems a bit fake to me.

[PhantomCobalt]

@hiplop why do you respond to my PL suggestion and not IV's? scummy to me,

[hiplop]

Both are bad and have no place in the newbie queue

[PhantomCobalt]

Why did you only note IV's after I pushed you about it?

[hiplop]

I mean my stance that they are wrong was clear. Don't need to quote both

Hello everyone. This is my first game on MS, but I've played some irc mafia before so I'm not a complete newbie. I've read most of the articles on the wiki and some of the previous games on here, but other than that I know very little about the meta here. I guess I'll start off with answering the page 1 random questions by innocentvillager and and hiplop.

1) When/how often do you expect to post?
2) Is low activity a scumtell? Is high activity a towntell?
3) Lynch "all" liars or no?
4) Is too scummy to be scum a fallacy, or not?
5) (for those who have played before) What's your towngame like, and what's your scumgame like?

1) I work from home, so can check the thread about every 2 hours or so when I'm not asleep. Will try to at least say something every day.
2) I think it depends on several factors, mostly on that player's play style. Everyone plays differently, and what's AI on some can be NAI on others.
3) While 99.9% of liars in this game are scum, if there are good enough reasons to believe the player belongs in the remaining .1%, of course you shouldn't lynch them. I don't see many scenarios in this setup where a townie lying would be all that beneficial, though. (These numbers are obviously just made up, and I'm curious if anyone have real stats of how often town players lie on here.)
4) It is.
5) First time playing on a forum, and irc is much more fast paced so I don't know if how I play on there will be all that helpful.

1) Have anyone of you played any off-site games?
2)How about on-site games? If so; How Many?
3) How would you describe yourself as an individual?
4) What do you think you will be remembered for this game?
6) Favourite pizza topping?
7) Favourite Movie?
8) Favourite Song/band/music genre?

1) Yes. Besides playing on random ircs of communities I like, I've also tried Town of Salem and Epicmafia, but quit due to the amount of trolling and gamethrowing going on on those sites.
2) This is my first game on here.
3) Calm and quiet, but will always speak up if I think I have something meaningful to say.
4) No idea. Hopefully it'll be for contributing.
6) Beef.
7 & 8) Don't really have a favourite.

Will get an avatar as soon as I find a good one to use.
