Dragon Fact #3:

It is considered bad manners and possibly offensive to address a dragon whose help or advice you seek, while using protective spells.

Day 1 Vet Bait here, TP/LO on me. Oh wait, wrong game.

Alrighty, so here we are, my first ever comment in my first ever Mafia game. Super excited to try this out, hope I find the time to properly contribute.

I found this site by reading about a funny jester role in a Mafia game with 100 players, and then I kinda got hooked and read the whole thing. It was interesting. My main takeaway was that the dude with the Majoras Mask Profil picture was right, town needs to rule with an iron fist. Less chitty chatty, more substance.

That said, seeing as I’m new to this I obviously don’t intend to tell others how to play. Not like I’d be familiar with the normal meta here already. In Town of Salem which is my main experience with this sort of genre so far it would be customary to start by going down the playerlist asking for roles, but from what I understand that’s not how it works here?

So I guess I will just start talking about things I find notable reading the previous conversations. Please let me know if you think anything about the points I am making or if I am mistaken in some way.

Hi.

I like your entrance the best.

You are town.

Thank you. I will blindly trust this and say you're town too!

VOTE: Hu Tao

kinda wanna say this comes from scum? Like, there's a bit of a "oh god i gotta appear towny" in those words imho
"blindly" also sounds hyperaware of the lack of info a townie would normally have

VOTE: gypyx

Die Die Die

hope that's not a serious vote tbh

[Hu Tao]

Upwards - might be scum.
Claptastik - leaning town.
FuDuzn - town
Laplacian - the slightest of town reads
Gypyx - might be town

This is where I am so far.

Could be. But I feel new people are not as likely to have a scripted opening like that.

Nope. No going back. You MUST decide now if I'm town or not.

It’s player dependent, iirc a friend from my homesite opened his first game on here with RQS?

[Hu Tao]

I guess I'll make my decision based on more posts then. But I'm fine with my vote being on them now.

[Gypyx]

eeeeh, just gonna pretend i think Hu Tao is town for now and i'm challenging that when we get to it

Nuh uh

to be clearer i feel like you're the kind of slot that's gonna get easier to read as the game goes on, plus i don't trust i'd be able to successfully lead a push on you anyways (regardless of ur alignement) so no real point dwelling on that

[Gypyx]

VOTE: MargotRosa

Anyways wanna vote a slot that's been weirdly shy about things?

I somewhat agree with this idea. I think she’s just been not present but wouldn’t mind leaving her a little present on her return

Short bursts of posts are usually pretty hard to read in a vaccum but as we get more and more additional context it basically gives more material around which to analyse what you're saying

at least that's how i think it should go, still a bit rusty of mafia stuff

VOTE: MargotRosa

[Upwards]

Right on so far ! As it seems you've played way more ToS (may i ask if it was on the forums or the actual game?) i'd say mostly that in terms of roles, you need to expect half the town to not have any powers, scum huting is therefore way less reliant on mechanical data and more like, actually reading people, take all i say with a grain of salt obviously, but try to focus on seeing the intent / mindset / agenda behind what people are saying, should be a good start

I played it on my phone app, didn’t even know ToS forums existed until just now. I assume the main difference are the time intervals as well then? From what I’m used Town usually did what the loudest, most confident players recommended, no matter the flaws under the shining surface of their logical reasoning. Less time pressure should mean more focus on that logic aspect, which I appreciate and am looking forward to.

Not sure what to make of ScumHunting being mostly based on reading people.It’s gotta be a lot of fun, but appears a little bit difficult to get started without any mechanical hints. Alas, I shall try my best to form some leans.

Another broken quote fixed

[Upwards]

wtf happened with the formatting lol?

[Laplacian]

Not many reads yet. HT and Aliana feel towny. Upwards has the tryhard poat that feels nai from a newbie. Deltawave having no comment on my vote also feels a little scummy.

[Laplacian]

Also, my posting'll be a little light for next couple days. At the country dance world championships atm. Will have more time after my wife competes.

So plz dont turbo me until then kthx

Wow, I absolutely love it. Like, unironically it made me laugh. Very first post on this site and I get to hear my opening is scripted. Fun Fact: It’s not. It’s just the story of how I came here in the first place, cuz with what else to start? "Hi" was already taken you know. But you’re right, I obviously had some idea of what I wanted to put in there.

Also am I misunderstanding something or are you saying I am not new? I literally had no account just a couple days ago…

Anyways, with this Hu Tao officially comes into my Slightly Town leaning order. I think Mafia would feel silly making such an argument and from what I’ve seen so far she’s on track to become a guiding light. I like Posts 96,97, and 113 simply because it mirrors what I’ve seen from trusted townies in the game I’ve read. This seems to be the way to go. Alternatively she’s a pretty good Scum player.

[Upwards]

Upwards has the tryhard poat that feels nai from a newbie.

I’m afraid I don’t understand, what does "poat" and "nai" mean? ( English is not my native language )

[Gamma Emerald]

nai = not alignment indicative
idk what poat is supposed to be, unless it's a typo of "post"

[Laplacian]

Poat = Typo for "post"
Nai = not alignment indicative. Meaning it doesn't say if you're town or scum either eay
