Jeeeze this game is going quickly.

Hi everyone, I'm Aeronaut. I'm in 3 other games. So. That's. Fun.

Pleasure to play with Wake again, even after the thing that happened in NY175. We don't speak of such things anymore


But yea,I'll get right into it. I'm going to do it by every three pages, because if I go through and select-quote everything I'll forget what I was going to say.

Page 1-3

@Everyone:

What's your biggest strength at mafia game?

Answer:

I've been told that I'm good at 'following up' with my questioning.

Hmm.... Biggest strength? Well, nobody has actually told me if I'm good at anything in particular, but I guess I'd say gambiting maybe? I've only done it once, in Simple Complexity, where I claimed Gunsmith. It worked pretty well IIRC, until Titus had to come in and be a cop. That was laaaame.

Lapsa, my biggest strength at Mafia—in my own opinion—is twofold. Will and potential, and I daresay the ability to adapt to anything. At times I can be very forceful, and I quite like the mental swordplay that comes about now and again. Also, I tend to watch out for any players that use hyperbole, or take words out of context. Those to me scream of Scumminess, and I'm apt to tear at the throat whenever someone attempts to do so with me in these games. I've caught a few this way. Thorough, analytical reads are another strong weapon in my arsenal. Intense, unceasing curiosity and scrutiny round it out, but this doesn't mean other things are being improved upon as well. If I'm Scum you have to either NK or investigate me; very rarely as Scum do I get lynched; it's been well over a year.

Guys, I'd like to hear more from you. Please speak up and get these discussions rolling. Hearing more from you would be splendid, and, if you would, please toss out more reads and accusations. Lob some questions my way too, please. I don't bite, and will not rip your head off unless I sense you're being deceitful. From a cost-benefit analysis, you have nothing to lose if you're Town, because as Town you should have absolutely no reason to lie to me about anything in this game. Some have told me I have a very sharp sense of perception, and can usually discern traits and patterns in the behaviors of others. You have literally nothing to fear if Town, and everything to fear if Scum, so, by all means, please do engage with me.

I love Wake. Please be in all my games

I do know Aeronaut and Luca Blight are formidable players, and am patiently waiting for them to wade into this game. You guys don't need to be shy.

As for me, I'm simply harmless.

Ah, no, I would call myself the opposite of a formidable player. Like a generally very bad player. But hey, the only way to improve is practice, right?

(..) Would you be willing to give a rough estimate of how many years you've been playing? (..)

Do you, perhaps, have any slight reads on anyone as of yet? Maybe you have a bit of insider knowledge on someone's meta here?

(..) However, my memory on the details is foggy. As time wears on the memory fades ever so slightly.

you can call me Lapsa88

vote on Aneninen because of fluff

vote on Aeronaut because of doubling on you

zero insider knowledge

thing in common - can't remember losing my memory

Fluff, in my opinion, isn't indicative of alignment.

Aeronaut, under the law of

Lynch all Wakes

, is naturally compelled to stay the course.

Do you feel posting fluff is worthy of a vote? I wonder what everyone else thinks of this. Please do join in.

I disagree. Fluff only can hurt the town and help the scum. Good example is what happened in Completely Ridiculous Mafia. Same is true of walls and walls of text, and pointless pissing matches; at a certain point you're not changing anybody's opinion, just clouding up the thread.

46 is eh. I don't particularly like it, seeing that withholding information is bad, but it's not like he's refusing to elaborate on a vote.

vote ollie

clearly lurking.

slowly turning into a real vote.

Why? because he's lurking? It's been like six hours.

...on a side note, to be safe, I think we should assume we're dealing with a 10:3 Setup.

Setup spec is bad, Wake.

UNVOTE:
VOTE: Luca Blight

And HEEERE'S the not explaining of the vote. We're not in RVS, in case you missed the email-blast.

That said, I don't think all fluffiness should be outlawed. Some fluff is alright, so long as it stays within reason.

what is an acceptable fluff to content ratio

on

Day 1

in the first 5 pages ?

which is more damning (in your opinion) in those first 5 pages, posting fluff or confirming but not posting in the game (but posting elsewhere on site)?

This seems like
"How much bullshit can I post without anyone suspecting me?"

This is my third game, so no idea what my strengths are.

Lapsa is probably town.

As of right now, I'd probably wagon Luca, Wake, or Anen. Wake being the weakest vote of the three.

Is everyone here yet?

Why is Lapsa town? Why are you willing to wagon Luca, Wake, or Anen? These questions are not rhetorical.

Lapsa you could save me some time though, you play so nonchalantly as scum?

I got thousand faces and they all look same

This makes me think Lapsa is also an Alt.

Or that's a movie quote and I'm an uncultured wretch.

I dunno, does your in english maybe that post typing? <3

This was funny. Still not much of an answer though.

Right but I'm not posting a 'case.' You are. And it's a case that nowhere ever actually suggests a scum motivation for anything I've done.

So then why are you not posting a case?

Katie seems to be very defensive and emotional regarding this wagon. This is indicative of scum.

Unvote:

Vote: Katie

I agree Luca's vote was not OMGUS. He clearly pointed out his reasoning. OMGUS is a defensive responce vote without any clear reasoning other than wanting to divert your own wagon.

This is opportunistic AF. Please.

VOTE: MonkeyMan567

I like Luca's vote, I don't like Monkeyman's.

Page 6 - current

I don't get the feeling that being emotional or defensive is indicative of alignment. Maybe when it comes to meta, but that's typically unreliable. Misrepresentation and hyperbole, I think, are scumtells.

It's not.

You guys are taking my statement out of context. But I acknowledge some players play emotional and defensive as town. Katie's wagon has still brought a lot more day 1 information than is typical so I like my vote where it is for now.

Your entire case on Katie is that she's being overly emotional and defensive. So, if that isn't indicative alignment, why are you still voting her?

Wake, I thought it might be indicative as the game progressed. Chill.

Oh, I am chilled good Sir, but I am now thoroughly perplexed with your faulty facade. First you create this dubious alt and slip on it, and then you try to lob a flimsy Scumread on me because you think I talked too much about the questions directed towards me in the first five pages. I would like to have more of an explanation from you on this, and you can be sure I'll be directing more questions your way in the future.

Can anyone else imagine Wake as a supervillain saying this, while petting a cat or something?

But actually, this post is Wake overreacting quite a bit. Keeping that in mind.

but the example he gave came after his vote on you.

*yawn*

VOTE: Luca Blight

This is unhelpful.

UNVOTE:

This is more unhelpful.

Lapsa is officially a very confused Reddit-bot.


Not sure on Katie. The alt slip is not indicative of alignment, and anyone using that in their reasoning has a golden ticket for the Bullshit Train. Someone point out her "overreaction", because I don't see that. Lapsa is anti-town AF. He's just going to sit in the stands and throw peanuts at us the whole game. The more MonkeyMan posts, the better my vote seems. Oppertunistic vote, and now he's just trying to stick to his guns.

[/Quote]

That's not my entire case at all. There's also the fact that Katie's wagon has generated discussion and brought about useful information the town can use later in the game.

I'm not convinced Katie is scum at this point, but the wagon is pro-town to me. Therefore my vote stays at this point.

how exactly is that a part of your case on Katie?

Luca alone is voting for Katie

how broad is wagon you are talking about?

Not so much part of the case so much as why my vote is there I suppose. You want to know what has produced the most pro-town discussion at this point and you can look at Luca and my vote.

As broad as any other wagon right now.

[Lapsa]

@Luca there's a monkey on your back. gonna do something about that?

[Lapsa]

at a certain point you're not changing anybody's opinion, just clouding up the thread.

@Aeronaut where is that point?

Thanks for paying attention.

so I am trying to figure out if you REALLY think that is what I am doing in this quote, were just skimming as you read, trying to be funny, or if you scum trying to paint a picture by taking a quote out of context? I know in catch up posts, people tend to not really read thoroughly, but I am curious.

please address this...for I will have follow up questions.
