MafiEra Mafia |OT| The Day of the Blargonauts

- Start date
Fantomas I've got the feeling of it being a little unfair comparison to put my middle of d1 me on this game against the n1 me of Brexit. For those who didn't play/spec Brexit, we got scum on D1 there and I was one of the breaking votes for getting the scum player lynched. Your easy town read was pure luck, I could have chosen to lynch coolest over ET and would had been your top scum on n1.
This said, I thought you were saying this from a place of dishonesty, but then realized maybe it's me being self conscious
Remind me again why are you supporting Bae? The most I remember of you saying about her is that both are friends and LiS fans
You know what, let's see where that goes
VOTE:Pirate Bae
As for reads I'm leaning town on malus and ketkat because it feels like they are easy targets, scum on rac and zubz.

I didn't expect my meager 6 posts to garner this much attention. I feel better about Fantomas now, since he has made some good posts and has put in some work, which is the Fantomas I know.
Terraforce is in a similar camp for me. To me he often comes across as a bit confrontational, but he was like that in all games I've seen him in, so I'm not holding it against him.
Sorian must be very good at reading people if he can see a pattern in my Day 1 play from the one Day 1 I actually played, but then I guess most people are mostly nothing on D1 anyway.

Your only posts are advocating a vote for you as leader and some stuff about Blarg being Blarg. I wouldn't call that making a case.
Anyone expecting any more from them clearly didn't read them, given I said that I didn't have time to catch up with the thread before my flight and so I was in no position to provide serious reads.
Oh, I read it as if you accused him of reading over you making a case. My bad.
I think I would be okay with a leader in Stan, Fando, Brazil, cabot, Kyanrute or Natiko.
Geno stated he would just follow majority if he was leader, which I don't agree with. On the other end Sorian stated he would pretty much ignore the popular consensus and go with whoever he felt like.

You misspelled StanleyPalmtree btw.
I currently feel best about Brazil so:
vote: Brazil
vote: Brazil
What is that?
Alright, let's look at some Fran votes today.
Fran seems not to trust with deciding the kill on day 1. This seems fine at a glance.
Fran gives a list of players he trust. Keep in mind some of the players here.
This is Fran saying he can change his mind on some of his reads from that list, but I'm thinking it's more of an excuse for when they start giving reads that Fran isn't down with.
Some players are good at giving reads early game with no info. Fran doesn't think he's one of them.
Fran's saying he's would go after the leader depending on how the day shakes out.
Sorian has made top 2!
Then we have some scum reading of Malus. Brazil already did a good job at pointing out some issues here, so I'll just quote him.
Fran realizes the read isn't going over well and to avoid becoming the center of the conversation, he quickly jumps to a new, shinier, bus in the very next bus.
And then we have some scum reading of me for a bit while arguing for a couple of posts with one of his most trusted early town readers, Sorian before we finally hit this last post.
Fran, who is afraid of being leader because he doesn't think he makes good decisions early day is now completely confident that I'm scum.
So what was the best case scenario, Fran? Have someone not you pull the trigger on killing me and then let them take the fall after I flipped?
All of this is inconsistent at best. Fran is scum. We should go after Fran. I'm not letting this go.

I've not caught up yet, but wanted to address this post from yesterday
I assume this is because they're quite different things. My comment was regarding an action Fandorin had with Sophia and he instigated it. He's still in the game and was able to respond to the comment I made. The thing with Shadow's vote is that he is no longer in the game and it's not right to expect Fantomas to know what Shadow was doing there. Don't know why you brought it up to compare, really.

Yeah, I was feeling better about Terra after catching up, but this stuck out a bit. It was stated CeeCee would be out for 14 hours.
You did say you'd conjure up some hot takes in the hour before the flight, which never really happened though..
Less sure on Fran just now and confused on rac though I'm struggling to see a scum!rac act like he's currently doing.
I think Chuggs is too invested in Fran.
I'm pretty okay with Stan being leader, though an update on whats happened so far would be helpful.
I'd probably still choose Ketkat as my top shot. She came in and responded to me, I wasn't particularly happy with the response then disappeared again.
Yeah, sorry about the hot takes. Took longer to catch up on the thread than I anticipated.
Faddy seems to be playing the way he usually does as town so far, i.e. Out of kilter with a bunch of other people already.
Since I was asked last time and could only provide a joke answer, I find it hard to read Blarg in general but I'm certainly not leaning scum on him so far this game.
Why? This is my only big posts reading him while he's been reading me for the last couple of pages now based on almost nothing.
I'd say my most up to date shot list is:
Ketkat
Geno
Kyanrute
Zubz
Kawl
Kyan has been quieter than I expected and currently hasn't really been productive enough to warrant ignoring as a lynch choice. Zubz is a difficult one. I've struggled to read them before and I remember a previous game I watched where they played similar to this and became a rather easy mislynch. I'd shoot to eliminate a diffficult read.
Kawl, friend, you've not given much of anything and I can't read you very well at the best of times, so in the vein of zubz, you'd be considered a shot.
I'm willing to hold on CeeCee, because I can usually read him pretty well, much better than Sophia anyhoo.
I've softened a bit on Geno, though he is clearly above the other three because its more than a difficult read.

I don't really disagree and am not utterly convinced on Fran but its easy to make a wall of text post about someone who's targeting you. It's basically a giant OMGUS.
Your point on Fran going from very wary of choosing a d1 target to hardening on you is a good one and is taken on board though.
Fran's in a sort of portal where I can see arguments for his lynch but considering how active he is, he can be found out with more day phases under our belt. It's a bigger risk to off him on day 1 and I'm not completely convinced he's scum.
*Disclaimer: The current in-game situation is most decidedly not a Thunderdome.
This would be fair, but it's the other way around. One of my first posts, if not my first post in this thread was me saying I leaned scum on Fran

We'll get there, just you wait.
I can't tell so far, but he's my #1 most likely scum.
Otherwise, any of the quiet players or I could get behind a Fran lunch.
This post I assume.
So I don't agree with the read, I've played with Fran multiple times and he is always one of the leader style players. NAI for me.
That's fine. I'm more using that as an example that this isn't coming from a OMGUS place. I've been leaning scum on Fran this entire game.
Very well, I rescind the OMGUS part.
good luck with your target.
Still catching up lol
But as of page 16 ish
I like AB and Brazil for town. That dofus post about voting for theme being secret screams town to me. Or at the least someone who isn't playing with a team.
Brazil's post hit on several positions I was having as skimming. Actually shit which brother was scum in marvel? It was fand right? What I'm saying is Brazil was reminding me of how he made me feel in that game. So uh...not town for me if he was scum in that game

Let me add to that a bit. I think my big post is a better example of why I think Fran is scum then that early day 1 read.
Fran's play this game feels very contradictory and I've seen him play a game like this before as scum.
Town Blarg is very very mildly peeking through, still too early to actually tell though.
FluxWaveZ Did I miss why you slid quietly into this Stanley vote?
Also, assuming Zubz' vote counts (extra space in the name as pointed out above), seems like Stanley might just end up getting sheep at this point.

Jesus fuck i feel like Odysseus catching up on this thread, except instead of exciting dangers thrown at me by the god i just have you fucks harping on about fucking nothing holy shit like 10 pages and not a meaningful point was made.
That said i do suddenly have many supporters in my leadership campaign so i guess thats kinda like coming home to my loyal wife and son.
now to kill me some fuckin suitors
I had a few quotes collected but most of it has been resolved already so fuck that noise.
I do have more to say but its still too hot and my chair is still broken so imma need icecream before you get em.

Alrighty, so the big thing that managed to perpetually piss me off in this catch up.
Faddy, your argument against many people (including me) getting in a tizzy over Sophias rather off comment about Blarg.
Now first of all im under the impression that this argument entirely follows the logic of 'this isnt how ScumSophia plays' right?
Cuz if i missed something more substantial then disregard this, its likely given how much i started to glaze over shit near the end there.
This argument is bloody stupid.
Even keeping it in the meta methodology this argument holds no goddamn water because even if ScumSophia does typically conductor herself more cautiously, the obvious flip side would be that you have to consider how TownSophia usually acts, and i sure as hell dont recall TownSophia usually being so goddamn wrong about something.
She said that Blarg is typically more 'here' on day 1's.
Blarg once roll played as a fucking answering machine for the entirety of a games day 1.
Barely giving a fuck about D1 is probably his most consistent character trait.
Soph of any alignment should know this, her getting this so thoroughly wrong is bizarre and to act like its not noteworthy because it doesn't follow an absurdly narrow definition of how a player should be acting under a completely open bracket of circumstances is stupid.
To act like its suspect of other players to make an issue of such a strange lapse in judgement is even stupider.
To ignore the fact that few people elaborated on this issue due to Sophia replacing out shortly after making her limited play difficult to gainfully read from is just the cherry on the stupid cake.
Godamn yall need to lay off the meta, it can be useful sure but to be this narrow minded about something is reductive to an excessive degree.
/ramble end.
I think i should have gone with neopolitan instead of Orange chocolate chip.
i really just want some frozen shit to gulp down rn and the chocolate chips just get in the way,
they dont even add that much to the taste.
