slow night i guess.
well since its come up several times already,
i find that many players here are really overstating the uselessness of a Day 1 lynch, especially in the likely hood of that lynch actually hitting scum.
Many seem to be saying that lynching scum on day one is a near impossibility, but Scum have been lynched on the first day in many previous Gafia games.
It is completely possible for a scum player to mess up and out themselves, there is nothing special about Day 1 that stops scum from being at risk of a lynch, hell the biggest detractor of that happening is town not actively looking to lynch them.

Good morning.
This Theresa May-esque U-turn is quite strange, Swamped. I didn't read anything from the response, it seemed just a brush off which makes sense for someone who hasn't played before and hasn't played with me before. I got nothing on rac.
Love Boat had someone claim cop within 6 minutes, turned out to be ordinary town. squidy is baiting for reactions if it wasn't made obvious by now (hint: it should have been).
In answer to your question, claiming cop has already shown to pick up on a few people's radar as scummy/fishy behaviour, so scum would keep him alive as a valid lynch target if they didn't believe his claim. There's also a protection role thats likely this early on.
Yo Dragonz never stop someone from asking questions. How can we read them if you shut em down?
Drink more.
Seems rather protective, newbies should get a little grace, but it should be implied not actively calling out people.
Bad mentality, vanilla mafia games are a thing. We need to rely less on power roles. The devil is in the detail, not the night phase.
I lean town from my previously mentioned Love Boat incident, though I'm not really sure what benefit a scum has to do this at this point? Even a day ability, it seems a little crazy to do it on Day 1.
Hi!
Please elaborate, I don't get particularly strong scum vibes and I want to know your thinking.

Bowlie going a bit hard on Poltergust this early is interesting. Read it as Town from Bowlie, and nothing from Poltergust.
I like Zubz, he came in with his balls in his mouth and his Mafia facemask on, cutting through the relatively high levels of crud and tried to start solving. I endorse this behaviour.
The whole session of fluff that happened overnight was pretty smelly, need to take a look at the culprits. I remember Dragonz and one of the nubs being in there.
Not into Haly so far, wouldn't date. Gotta keep things moving at this stage though.
VOTE: Dusk Solder
You told people not to discuss something and not much else, anything to add?

Comments on the big thing of the game so far, and offers logical thought behind his read from it.
Sick palmer burn.
Raising a genuinely good point which is against the majority of the grain.
This is about as solid a Stantrance I can remember, probably my strongest town gut read so far.
I'd like hey_monkey to do a bit more digging whence she returneth.
I liked the mentality she portrays in posts made here:
There's a positive, proactive mentality I see through these posts which reminds me of the way I like to play, so yeah. I'd like her to offer more things please.
Read back on that fluff exchange, nothing really there. It seemed to be a quiet time with a small group of players.
I did spot this, which I don't like at all:
It's easy to do a reaction to shenanigans. Give us a follow up BB.
meanwhile, in ultron land:
AHEM
What, Sky and I's explanations weren't good enough you, red eyed bird?
Games not going particularly fast right now.
Guess it's understandable. It's hard managing a scum chat as well as the game thread, bro.

1st i'd like to mention that gorlak's read on the events of gafia three are absolutely wrong and totally not anime at all. obviously what transpired was that even after being separated by the monster with a million yosukes, we broke the barrier of separation via the amazing banana what in some ninsensical anime way was a metaphor about our love that transcends even all of space and time. that gave us courage and hugs and warm feelings and then we both won and happily ever after. now that is anime.
and yes cabot i can see you writing that, here, let me do it for you
"pregaming after the game started, cool. have anything relevant to say?"
stole your post nanananaaa

Are you in league country?
I can't be expected to read posts that aren't direct replies to me! Yeah I was at work and skimmed, sorry!
If your worry is that scum have roles that will take lynches for them that should only encourage you to start killing faster. A protective role isn't going to just stop working after Day 2, so we'll have to kill our way through it eventually.

Squidyj first day cop claim comes off as a weird thing to do and then Dragonz response to it by saying haha its a joke guys i have seen worse claims on day 1, comes off as scummy. She is a a lot more active during this day 1 then the previous game we were in together(Persona Mafia), where she was regular town and i was scum.
My vote right now is based on the change of her behaviour between games and her dismissing Squidyj's role claim as a joke.

why do you think it is scummy though.
Is your thinking that squidy isnt scum?
You're scum. squidy isn't. squidy claims cop early, scum you brushes it off and laughs. All the laughs. A thousand laughs!
Why though? if dragonz is scum wouldn't you push for the lynch? save a night kill which may be countered by protection. It's a weird play, could reasonably try to push a lynch. Brushing it off as a joke is just strange to do as scum. If I were scum, I'd either ignore it or react negatively to it.
Dragonz is scum. squidy is also scum. This is slightly more logical, though only just. For instance, why did scum!squidy do this on day 1? It potentially makes him a recurring issue on day discussions, a scum target or a vigi shot target. That's three ways of dying, and then we have the scum buddy brushing it off trying to pretend it was nothing. Scum!squidy flips, Dragonz has massive egg on her face and isn't probably far away from a death herself.
How do you think it goes down?

I'm more concerned about killing townies who need protecting with a completely blind shot in the dark.
Gonna start by addressing issues that cropped up yesterday, then will make additional posts about current thoughts on players.
According to the list there are 7 new players. That's almost a third of the player list. That's a lot of people to discount right of the bat, but I'll be honest I really hope an oldie gives me a reason to vote for them lol.
I've compiled the posts that rac, SkyOdin and Cabot made about squidy's claim above. Looking through it again, it does seem that I might have overreacted. However I still think it is inconsistent that rac thinking Sky's vote is 'harsh', a pretty strong term, yet have no opinion on Sky's alignment because of that. So maybe Cabot doesn't read anything into it, but I'm making a mental note.
Zubz - clarify what rac was playing along with?

Nicely said.
So you lean scum on Squishy, but in your opinion he could be scum, town, or neutral? Also, if you're leaning scum on him why haven't you voted for him? Aren't you the one that always says your vote should reflect your current thoughts on the game? (or maybe that's another veteran player)
No, you're my waifu! ♡(.◜ω◝.)♡
You're right though. I usually budget an hour a day or so to reply to posts. But I generally keep up with the thread using my phone throughout the day. So maybe it looks like I'm not posting much, but I'm definitely engaged, and my posts usually come in bursts.

Also, really enjoying the activity of the new players too, keep it up. Has Hatmoza posted yet?

Who do you want to target? Why so reticent about naming names?

I honestly don't think he's scum. I think he's town trying to prod for something (idk what) and gauging reactions

Don't agree with it. Palmer dropping the mic and walking off made it difficult to argue with. Will wait until he returns

I'm not as bold as some on this because it's my first game. I also didn't want to target someone silent when the game had only been going for a few hours, but by the time I get home today... I'll be ready to start pointing fingers, I expect.

I am gonna say, as I'm fresh with morning insight, that about 80% of the things people marked as weird were me trying to... not roleplay my assigned character, but speak with the flavor of, I guess (which sounds nicer than half-assing), so I'm gonna go ahead and not do that anymore.
The rest is just newb-caution. I own that; it can come off as weird.

see the thing with this is that if we all keep talking arguing acusing insulting and everythingelse that makes up this lovely game of mafia, it wont really be a shot in the dark, we will all have our opinions suspicions thearies and general reads to inform our voting, and we are never likely to have much more than that on any given day.
Success in mafia is measured in dead scum, not living townies.
this i can believe as my defense was p awful i admit
this switch on to squidyj i don't like
i guess im following cabot's reasoning, squidyj is town for me

I think both Squidyj and Dragonz are scum. Squidyj makes the mistake of fake claiming cop as a joke puts suspicions on himself goes all tsun tsun over it. Dragonz comes in haha its a joke guys(move along nothing to see here) then posts a lot of fluff and says we should have patience.
You say if Squidyj gets outed as scum then Dragonz would be next. I think you underestimate towns ability to make dumb choices. Dragonz just has to go oh jeez i rly didn't think Squidyj-kun was actual scum, boy i read that completely wrong im such a baka teehee. Its what i did last game and i survived all the lynch attempts even going against somebody who should have already been cleared of suspicions.
Im not saying this will happen but it would not be the first time town goes against logic.

First time playing a game with him so i wouldn't know.
I've played with him quite a few times, and he's very forthright and will make a fakeclaim when he's certain of something (If memory serves, he may have been the first to pull the fake cop gambit in Archer) . While I could see him making a mistake, I don't see him kind of flailing around afterwards being all weird and nervous.

Or this is one big joke on his part and he wastes everyone's time. >_>
I'm not sure what to make of him, really. He's the closest thing we have to a lead in this game so far, though, so we might as well run with it and see how night plays out, along with the next day phase. Lynching him now would put us right back into square 1 unless something else happens today.
