[Game Over] Newbie 1784 - Escape Room

[TesXX]

If Senpine tells me to claim, I will claim. Otherwise no.

I don't want a BP claim or a Doc/Tracker claim on the board before Day 1 has even begun. It kills the game. It's not fun or interesting. It's simply churning mechanics and not what mafia is about, not how newbies should be learning to play. Tes has gotten away with being read as Town while producing 0 content whatsoever simply by pushing this strat and that is a perfect example of how crap it is.

This person has been staring at that noose for hours, not uttering a single word.

The emphasis on setup spec rather than scumhunting and the cost of getting into these exact situations, where we are squabbling over setup spec rather than scumhunting, is precisely why this strat sucks.

Only if there is a refusal to claim.

[Srceenplay]

Whatever.
Let's move on.

Not bp

I still agree.

Wouldn't be a refusal if the strat weren't pushed

It's already been pushed, so if your concern is that it clutters the game with setup spec and not scumhunting, your continued refusal to claim only drags this on longer.

[Chronicle]

Also why is Tes scum?

[nancy]

Whatever. It's obvious I'm VT anyway from this whole stupid thing.

Why is Tes not scum?

[Srceenplay]

Didn't need your role!!

He's a null to me. What have you seen that you think is scum motivated?

[Srceenplay]

This is why I think it is more important to teach everyone to keep their roles secret.
It is information scum does not have. This game is all about information and scum already has more than town. The more they get the more it hurt us.

Not a concern if we lynch scum.

Speaking of which, why are you voting Loop?

I get that the Road to Rome is made for teaching newbies and that it's very very important to have fun in these games, but it is still a competition. I find 3 way lylos to be the most interesting ways to end the game but that doesn't mean I'll purposely get myself lynched to make that happen.

It's simply churning mechanics and not what mafia is about, not how newbies should be learning to play.

The mechanics play a big role in the game, and the newbies

should

learn to use them to their advantage.

Tes has gotten away with being read as Town while producing 0 content whatsoever simply by pushing this strat and that is a perfect example of how crap it is.

The reason all my content has been about the strategy is because you haven't claimed yet and I want to start finding who gets rope.

[TesXX]

Lol, I spent all that time on my lagging mobile device making a post that wouldn't post, and then after I post I find that nancy has already claimed, rest in rip me

Nah, I think you're hiding behind this stuff in lieu of actual scumhunting as an excuse to seem to be doing something without actually doing anything.

I'm not really that eager to discuss this subject(and I know far too little about it), but doesn't this strat put a scummy newb in a really tough spot?
I mean the main reason I dislike this strat, is because it seems to bring unbalance to the game.

Alright, so if I'm scum, then what would I do in this situation if I were town?

[Srceenplay]

If we lynch town, we are put at a bigger disadvantage.
Scum want to lynch pr and their odds increase with claims.
Plus they can build their own strategies around the pr.
So even if we get to the point of a claimed tracker, it doesn't guarantee a positive track even if they watch a scum. But scum will have a 1 in 5 chance to kill doc.


I voted Loopdan to see what whymafia would do.

Forming coherent sentences would be a good start.

So do you think Loop could be scum?
