Large Normal 132: Desert Mafia (Over!)

[gorilla]

I will do my best to never play with Silver1337 again after this. I still really believed him to be town at the end there but he was such a liability since I was assuming 2 scum left the whole time and he wasn't even playing the game. eugh.

enjoyed playing with everyone else though!

[Untrod Tripod]

You are all cordially invited to my next game, which will be a large theme entitled Gay Mafia. My text color will finally be distinctly appropriate.

[xRECKONERx]

I believe I'm helping design/mod that one, right?

[Untrod Tripod]

If you still want to, yes.

[xRECKONERx]

Hooray

[Slaxx]

Yeah, silver was more or less a wildcard+hiraki's tunnelling. Had to take care of him.

[Slaxx]

Also I got called townleader in the mafia QT, woot. That was reck until he got beaten to death though.

[xRECKONERx]

"If Reck hadn't been posting from a bullshit alt account, I might have been able to manipulate him properly from the get-go instead of getting caught with my fucking pants down. What a cheap fucking trick."

u mad KK?

[xRECKONERx]

"xRECKONERx
- Damn good.
- Town Leader.
- Extremely hard to lynch.
- High priority NK target
- There's no useful strategy to counter Reck in this game except to stay off his tunelling gun sights."

<3

[Slaxx]

Youre temper cleared like three people RP, and yet you still didn't learn xD

[Slaxx]

I think I got "Coasting Town" and "Not afraid to reason in public"

[Slaxx]

Hiraki
- Poor man's Reck.

This is the best one.

[xRECKONERx]

I really wanted to nominate this for best town performance buuuuut we had too many bad moments :<

Oh well, good game guys. Pretty sure we scared RisingPhoenix off the site.

[Ranmaru]

Sorry for my play. I'll try to give reads instantly next time. Good stuff Reck.

[inHimshallibe]

GG!

[Silver1337]

GGs. I was focusing more on my Newbie game, so I didn't post a lot here :\

[Silver1337]

Next time I'm not signing up for more than 2 games at a time

[gorilla]

I don't care what game you're focused on, it is never acceptable to post things like this:

/post

if you can't think of anything else to say, then you need to ask to be replaced because it pretty much ruins the game for everyone else to have to deal with someone who isn't even trying.

[Silver1337]

I had nothing to add, plus I was gonna get a prod soon. That's why I did that. Won't do it again though, I'll try to find something to say, even if it's SLIGHTLY off topic.

[Hiraki]

If all you have to say is your role claim, then I'll remember that for next time.

[mastin2]

About dang time.

I'm happy with my play this game--I correctly called the scumteam, technically. (Just had an extra name in there. ) {Khan, RP, Scott} on day one.

Not the best game (I technically got that before Ranmaru was proven town, but it wasn't actively believed until after that), but still, overall pretty good.

[mastin2]

And my reason for thinking Khan's scum isn't my RVote's reason. He's literally living breathing scum in every post, acting exactly the way I remember him as scum. The one difference is that now, I'm wiser and more experienced and know better than to fall into his trap. With a N0, this is how things go:

Spoiler: Typical Scum Dialog

Scum 1: Hi, all! *talks about experience levels* *talks about who they know and don't know*. What should be do?
Scum 2: Hi, *scum1*! *maybe gives own experience*. I know *others*, too! I think we should kill *names*. (Yes, names. Scum never select a single name alone.)
Scum 1: Sounds good to me, though I'd go with *name*.
Scum 3: *lists the people in the town* *begins to list Scum3's experience with all the names* *asks for buddies' opinions on names they didn't list as kill options*, *begins to formulate a plan for day actions*.
Scum 4: I agree. *furthers plan for day actions*. *Gives feedback on who to kill, based on their plan for dayplay*. *Thinks about who to send FOR the kill*.
Scum 1: Agreed.
Scum 2: Not quite happy about *small detail in the plan*, but otherwise, I'm fine with that.
Scum 3: Then we're in agreement.
Scum 4: Let's do this!

If you couldn't tell, I'm generally portraying Scum 1 as semi-newbish (but possibly with some experience--probably off-site, but potentially one or two games on-site), Scum 2 as relatively new but somewhat experienced, and Scums 3&4 as experienced. Khan in this situation as either 3 or 4 would essentially do what he did in Emerald City:

*If a previous scum player brought up the option of killing mastin*. "I wouldn't be afraid of him. He's a pushover if you know how to touch on his buttons. He's arrogant and has an easily exploitable ego. I've done it before. He's not a threat to us."

Why do I think this is what Khan did?

His play's scarily similar to Emerald City, for starters. But there's more to it. Like I said, I'm willing to explain in a wall, but it'd be a long wall.

How much experience do you have with Mastin? I've played a couple of games (none recent) with him. I find that he's usually an easy-lynch because of his stubborness, but his mega walls kill most of the fun that mafia games bring me.

So, my short kill-list... I'm happy with: Empking, Hiraki, inHIMshallibe, or mastin2.

Also, since this game had an abnormally long night, the scum had more time to talk than normal, to better prepare themselves for the day. They knew what they were doing, and all members certainly had a chance to chime in.

Khan's scum.
One of Ranmaru/Scott is scum, but the other's town.
One of Hiraki/Mana/Phoenix is scum.
If Ranmaru is scum, Phoenix isn't.

It's suggesting that Khan

and Slaxx

are scum. The remaining two are either

Phoenix and Scott

, or Hiraki and Ranmaru.

Sometimes, it's scary how well I predict things.

[Slaxx]

Don't make me knock your ego down 5 notches by making me quote all the times you said I claimed scum.

[Slaxx]

I think I counted like 8 just skimming.

[mastin2]

Well, yeah, I was assuming four scum rather than three. You made perfect sense in a four-scum game as being scum. In a three-scum game, though, not so much.
