Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

Re: Mafia | Game 5 - Mafia/Witch Victory: The New Law

Now that I'm on the computer (not mobile), here's my reads so far.

My top pick for scum is Rhazz. He started out strong, but now I'm not so sure. He formed a mob to "policy lynch" Unau, who turned out to be a citizen. Granted Unau was spamming, the way Rhazz took charge to eagerly kill him worries me. So we wake up the next day and the first thing he does is vote Ninja. A little quick to the draw, but not without reason. But now out of the blue he votes AlphaJon, without providing a reason, and starts making ungrounded assumptions about scum buddies. Todays lynch is incredibly important which is why more than ever we need to provide evidence. Maybe Jon is scum, but we have no way or knowing for sure. And I haven't personally gotten a scum reading for him, so please explain why he was voted.

Ninja is my second pick for scum for his hasty vote on Unau, but he seem to be recovering now.

I had my suspicions about Maxi, especially how he was all buddy buddy with Rhazz. Now Maxi seems to be taking an independent stance, which sets them apart. But who knows... this could be a part of their strategy...

I'm definitely not getting a scum reading from AlphaJon.

Lastly, I'm still not sure what to think of Onjit, W24, Pyro. It's hard to get a read when they don't post much.

So yea...

Re: Mafia | Game 5 - Mafia/Witch Victory: The New Law

I agree that I don't really see AlphaJon as scum (as of now), and lynching him would be a straight-up waste in my opinion.

While I do think Rhaz is a bit suspicious, I'm not entirely sure he's mafia. He frequently acts pretty fast and loose with his votes from what I've seen.

I also think Ninja has been needlessly implicated by Rhaz's fast and loose behavior, though his response to the implication was a little out of proportion for what I personally would have thought reasonable. I don't think that alone is enough to confirm scum, though.

Maxi on the other hand was pretty quick to jump on the Rhaz-initiated Unau bandwagon before, but both of their recent behavior seems to indicate that they aren't working tightly together. Rather, Maxi was just riding along with whatever Rhaz said, possibly to cover up his actual position in the game.  Or maybe Maxi's just lazy and wanted to come off as such.

In all, I'm reading Ninja and Rhaz as suspicious, and Maxi as probably scum.

I really wish the tragedy of Unau could have been averted, but the sins of the past cannot be undone.

So the votes were clearly a reaction test, but I got 2 nice things out of them.

No, really, you're accusing everyone just because you feel like it. You're trying to make us agree with each other so we get read as scum.

Why do you accuse me of being Witch specifically?

Policy vote I understand. Pressure vote I get. But a reaction test? I don't know if that's something you usally do, but I don't like it. (Obviously AlphaJon accusing you of being a witch was sarcasm in retaliation to your comment.)
Rhazh, I know you're aggressive, but this is just too much. I've had suspicions on you, but this just seals it for me.

Re: Mafia | Game 5 - Mafia/Witch Victory: The New Law

@Rhaz: I'm not calling you out for voting Ninja, I'm calling you out for doing it so quickly. Also the way you're purporting your intentions as if we should listen to you isn't cutting it for me. You might be town, you might be Mafia. And at this point I'm more inclined to believe the latter. You still also haven't explained your hostility toward AlphaJon. What are you playing at?

Re: Mafia | Game 5 - Mafia/Witch Victory: The New Law

I'd say RhazzleFrazzle might me Mafia due to his voting on AlphaJon without any reason. I also find him kinda aggressive. Ninja, however, I think he's fine.

Yeah, Rhaz is always pretty aggressive especially as a town PR. That's why I labeled it as suspicious rather than scum.

Anyway, does that count as a hard claim or does the game master confirm hard claims? I don't want to mislynch if it's not.

If it is, I guess Ninja's going to the gallows tonight.

Re: Mafia | Game 5 - Mafia/Witch Victory: The New Law

Now that I have your opinions, I think we can safely say Rhaz is being too aggressive, and trying to lynch about half the town.
So far he's trying to get the town to follow him blindly.
Let's look at our possibilities for Rhaz:
Citizen: he would be trying to catch the scum by provoking everyone and waiting for triggers. It obviously failed since he's lost the trust of a few of us. Unlikely.

Investigate: one died, but nothing prevents a second one (random). He could have a clue about some people's actions, but the fact that he's voting that many people makes this unlikely. Or he identified scum successfully, and wants us to have his will. But in this case he could just have roleclaimed and say the names of the scum, so this one is unlikely.

Protective: his aim is to actually have people target him, so he can fully use his abilities this night, in order to catch the mafia/prevent a mafia kill. However, for this to work, he needs to not get lynched, and the mafia has to actually target him, which I think they won't do because he's already a target for the town. Not as unlikely, but flawed (not lynched AND targeted by mafia). Neutral opinion on this.

Town killing: I'm going to consider only veteran, because sheriff gives the same result as citizen, except for the fact that he'll make a kill by himself during night.

Veteran: he wants people to target him, in order to counteract all of them and killing them at the same time. For this to work, same reason as protective, but more likely to happen, because he will use the most of his night actions. Likely, but also flawed, because of the nolynch and mafia target criteria.

Support: escort or medium, doesn't matter, same as citizen above. Unlikely.

And then there's mafia/witch: He knows well how to try to lead the town. He got a free lynch, thanks to Unau, and planned on getting ninja too, then randomly switched targets. This has caused his plan to backfire, and now he is read as scum by some of us. However, by just blending in with the regular townie, he could have won eventually. Heck, the witch and the mafia could even win together if they could identify each other. Likely, but flawed, because he made mistakes which now are back at him.

In all cases, Rhaz, you didn't play well this mafia, because you let your plan go too far, which now screwed you over.

My global say on this is that you tried to lynch/provoke as much people as possible, in order to secure a win.

For these reasons, I will
!vote RhazzleFrazzle

I may be wrong, as there is always risk in mafia games, in which case I'd be glad to hear about arguments in favor of RhazzleFrazzle, and retract my vote. But don't forget we all still have to identify scum.

Re: Mafia | Game 5 - Mafia/Witch Victory: The New Law

Ok, so there was some posts in between. So now Rhaz claims Sheriff. That changes the situation a bit. But in this case you could have claimed it right from the beginning, losing 1 town for 1 mafia is greatly helpful towards town winning. Why did you wait for everyone to read you as scum before doing so?

It's best to not reveal that I'm a PR unless I need to. The Witch could **** me over, so I tried to get Ninja lynched without having to hardclaim.

Re: Mafia | Game 5 - Mafia/Witch Victory: The New Law

Don't forget about framing though, because ninja's follow-vote was a trigger for some, aka the ideal target for mafia to have lynched. Do you honestly think he would give himself away as mafia in such a way?
About the witch f-over on rhaz: the worst that can happen is the witch controlling you every round to roleblock you, but at this point you'd make the witch useless at the same time, which isn't really great for someone who is on a self-alignment.

Re: Mafia | Game 5 - Mafia/Witch Victory: The New Law

In this setup Witch is aligned with Mafia, so it would make sense for the Witch to control the person that can catch the Mafia. Framer is a possibility, especially since there doesn't appear to be a Janitor, but I say we lynch the bastard to be safe.

He does have some genuinely useful information that, if correct, will benefit the town immensely. By claiming, he has basically indicated that he or Ninja is mafia (or he just wants to see the world burn...)
