Oreo, the people in the thread are writing shojo fanfics at this moment, nothing game-related; you didn't need to claim your name or anything like that cause the game only starts tomorrow. Nuts, sorry! D: At least now I can use my stupidity to our advantage later

Just gonna toss this little tip out here for you Munsta: Town is generally pretty aimless. You don't need to jump at every little thing that comes your way. Play it cool, and talk anything over with your teammates. Bowlie, haly, and cabot are all fantastic players, so you shouldn't have any issues working out mistakes.
I'm rooting for you guys, good luck!

I'm rooting for you guys, good luck! Thanks Sophia! Whenever I play The Resistance, I have a bad habit of staying too quiet when I'm a spy, so I was trying to act opposite of that. I'm forgetting that this is a much longer game, and like you say, don't need to pipe in every time something comes up

Remember, don't be overly defensive if you have a few votes on you. In the early stages majority -2 or below is fine if deadline is far out.
Also don't eat yellow snow

The fact that scum is made up of Western comic heroes was mentioned several times before PM's went out, so that was public knowledge

Well, let's see. I guess you could brush it off as referring to the flavor post.

It's more the choice of words, that will appear exactly like that in our PMs, that could make a townie suspect you when they have no other information about anyone else.
But usually town is not as smart as scum think they are.

Fair enough! Thanks for the feedback, guys I'll cool it with the slightly choice references, but I did only use what has been in posts that everyone can see

So, as a new player, the abilities are a big question mark to me, too. Despite that, though, I think that it's weird to ask so many questions if you didn't have an ability yourself

Oh, and I'm The Incredible Hulk. 2 shot strongman. Sounds cool! What's the strongman get to do? As for general discussion, you guys think it'd be interesting if I prevented a vote on squidj or on Poltergeist? Might cause some commotion, or would it be an early waste of my ability?

Despite that, though, I think that it's weird to ask so many questions if you didn't have an ability yourself We have something that they do not have, which is a private channel for communication and trust between ourselves; there's no reason to not use these resources. And beyond being scum, you are a new player (maybe new to GAFia, maybe new to mafia online, or new to mafia *ever*). If there's anything you wanna ask about, feel free to say it, really. To me, to the others here, to the mods, whatever; don't keep those questions within you ^^ That wiki I linked has a good amount of info on roles, how to play and how to not play, common mistakes (like the word choice I said earlier), but every community plays in its own way so it's not the surefire way to success.

Oh crap! Sorry, I guess I wasn't too clear in my message By all means, I advocate our use of this chat! What I meant by the asking many questions comment is that Poltergeist is asking a lot of questions about abilities, so it'd be weird if he didn't have an ability of his own

I was talking about Thought you didn't know what they were If you do, disregard what I said. Oh, and I'm The Incredible Hulk. 2 shot strongman. Sounds cool! What's the strongman get to do? As for general discussion, you guys think it'd be interesting if I prevented a vote on squidj or on Poltergeist? Might cause some commotion, or would it be an early waste of my ability? Strongman is a mafia goon that can perform night kills without being blocked, which implies the existence of a Doctor or a Bulletproof.

You said that if you used your vote preventer power, it would only activate in the next day phase, right?
I think it would be better to wait until you're sure who that person is gunning for. 30yearsofhurt has as of now a vote on squid, but who knows if he'll not change targets until Saturday.

Yup, totally agree! I'm trying to stay moderately involved in the chat, so that I don't look like a shadow scum. Think it's working >:]

So there's most likely a Town Tracker and Town protective role.
The latter is pretty common.
Would advise ninja first in the early days, chances of hitting a protected target are lower.
Also, the way I play doesn't really compute with being scum, the longer I stay alive, the more suspicious I'll be.
Barring some wondermagic play on my end, I expect a lynchin' a few day phases in.

2-shot Strongman may in fact point to multiple protection roles, rather than a single one.

Post by cabot on Apr 20, 2017 1:40:54 GMT -8
question that will probably not be answered:
Bear, as a moderator would you let a strongman break a bulletproof modifier?
(Even if no answer, my point is still valid. Strongman might or might not break a bulletproof role. Mod's discretion that one)

oreo, don't go completely introvert. I agree with Bowlie in perhaps toning it down, but it's a popular train of thought that a crazy sort of excited scum player wouldnt be like that as the team members would rope him in.
You can already see it with Palmer's read on you. You've got him thinking town, and he's a skilled player.
It's a fine balance that you could try to achieve.
