Team Mafia 2018: Mafiosi Revolution (Over)

[implosion]

why'd you choose a normal game before roles went out?

Kagami: could you take a stab at convincing me why Transcend isn't scum?

I dislike opens and complicated setups

Okay.

Why did you specifically choose *this* normal before roles went out?

And why not invention mafia, which was explicitly not going to be a very complicated setup?

[Firebringer]

Nothing with beeboy isn’t complicated

[Kagami]

where there was lots of low-hanging fruit elsewhere.

Like who?

Pretty much anyone who hadn't posted much at that point.

I didn’t pick invention mafia because it’s an open, and I wanted to play a mini normal like 99% of my games on site. I didn’t care which normal I was going to pick, I let my partners choose that

I think his reads and positions are sensible and the manner with which he's interpreting posts doesn't seem tainted by knowledge that the target is town. It seems like he's picking a lot of fights that are reasonably likely to go poorly for him, where there was lots of low-hanging fruit elsewhere.

Bullshit

Scum partner or scum tmi transcend

Lmao

Honestly it’s hard to describe but this just feels like grade A bullshit

And it kind of looks like you are pocketing Trans too

This doesn’t seem like a w/w defense

[Mulch]

If kagami flips scum then trans is town imo

[Kagami]

Great, then we agree he's town.

[Mulch]

I feel like I could take kagamis defense and use that for literally any person in any position in any game

That’s what’s wrong with it

Also it doesn’t even make sense for Trans he isn’t even giving reasons for his Reada

[Mulch]

Great, then we agree he's town.

No i don’t. If I had to guess there is 1 scum between you

[Mulch]

Great, then we agree he's town.

Wait what

Oh lord

[Mulch]

Probably Nai lol

[Mulch]

Why are you voting me kagami besides the fact you think I would take a scum role Pm despite me only playing in mini normals?

[Transcend]

Hi.

Lock town.

[implosion]

I didn’t care which normal I was going to pick, I let my partners choose that

So, your teammates assigned you to this mini normal over the other before receiving role PMs?

Not really buying this tbh.

No, I said I was doing a mini normal before role pms. We didn’t say which one lol

[implosion]

So you/your team chose you for this mini normal over the other after you saw what your roles in both normals were?

[Firebringer]

Hi.

Lock town.

Lock doggo

OK, I've read through the entire thread, and it makes me feel extremely old. It would be lovely if at least one person would talk to me in real time after this post is made.

Mulch, despite feeling like a spambot at the start has read more genuine to me as the game has gone on. I thought his responses to Transcends unusual Toranga vote were perfectly reasonable coming from town, and I don't see what Transcend is jumping at. If someone you're unsure/maybe suspicious of votes someone you think is town, isn't it normal to ask why? Im see the followup in post 410, but can't say it resonates with me.

Really like Cheet's meta-dive on Unabombah, who feels awkward to me in his early posts as well.

@Cheet: Seems unlikely to me that Una made up that he believed he had missed a lot of game-time, whereas I think he'd be more alert to the gamestate as scum.

I'm kind of upset that this is resonating with me.
):

Is this a very strong point? If he has been busy the past few days and lost track of when game's were starting, I'm not sure why being scum would make him more alert to the gamestate.

Kmd feels off to me. I do think it's possible the team chat was put in the thread just to show indecision, and I always remembered Kmd as a more direct player than that. Admitedly, my meta might be about 6 years old, heh.

I'm also supposed to tell spiff from Mathdino to fuck off because our team is arguing behind the scenes about reads and it's perfectly fine to present different arguments just like a Hydra would. He must have read something I haven't yet.

This seems a bit feigned in it's aggressiveness. I feel like you would understand the point Spiffeh is making even if I don't expect you to agree with his interpretation.

Vote: Kmd4390

. Also leery of Unabombah. Cheetory reads very town to me, and to a lesser extent Mulch and Transend do as well. I like that Mulch hasn't just focussed on a tunnel of Transcend, as would be easy to do as scum, and is prodding and poking at other people as well.

Now, since about a million people have posted while I was writing that, maybe a bit of real life chatter would be nice.

[Mulch]

So you/your team chose you for this mini normal over the other after you saw what your roles in both normals were?

Yeah. I was planning to take the scum one if we got one

[Mulch]

Holy shit this guy is from 2006

[Patrick]

FWIW I think meta is a useful tool, but I feel like I know very little about people in this game.

Mulch, do you prefer scum roles, then?
