The Jabbawookie 5,610 Posted July 5, 2018 So we should kill someone. People I find of interest: @ovinomanc3r for being weird and claiming to have info on Ebon. @Ginkapo for general surliness and quick lynch nominations (not too out of character, though.?) Anyone who’s been really quiet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m relatively new to these games, so I don’t know the protocol. Do I post in character in line with my flavour and get criticised? Do I post IC, go with awful memes, never ending silence, or increasingly angry crud? I expect I’ll be lynched / murdered by the end of day 2 – if I make it to day 3 it’ll be a personal best.

Madaghmire 7,274 Posted July 5, 2018 Relatively provacative day one play. A couple things; Playing into flavor is fine, but I’d be concerned about getting too cute and providing scum with more than you want. Or even showing something you don’t intend to which leads to scum taking actions that are bad for town because of something you didn’t mean to communicate but they interpreted something oddly. Which leads us to point two; I’m actively against breadcrumbing. You don’t know who will catch it. Its nice to have something to come back to later in the event you want to try and provide evidence for your claim, but honestly, all it proves is you were thinking ahead. An honest breadcrumb carries the risk that scum sniffs your role, and a dishonest one is scumplay. Now, on to specifics; 7 hours ago, EbonHawk said: As we're only 3 posts in wait and see..

Yep. 6 hours ago, EbonHawk said: If people had used flavour in my game and spotted the Jedi stareing at them in Mad the game would've finished two days earlier.... Honestly, that was bull. You should have just made me mafia, if I couldn’t win that with the game I played. Only mistake was not hammering Moose. But flavor should be just that. Flavor. Not a mechanic. 5 hours ago, ovinomanc3r said: Ebontrain? Why? He is gonna die tonight anyways. Yeah, I think we’re all looking at the Ebon/Ovi interaction.

Or is that a deliberate ploy to get themselves killed? ^ This is mafia. It boils down to the fact that as town we have to root out the scum. The scum need to say stuff so they don’t look like they are scum-marining. Day 1 we need a lynch. That’s beneficial to town because we talk and there is a vote trail. As far as protocol, really the only thing you have to avoid is the ewoks and the rules. Also, as I’ve posted, I would not give up your roles unless there is no other option. The scum can kill us at night and want to pop our power roles. Just make sure you post and give us a vote. I know the time difference is big, but just give us your reads and votes before the days end. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It depends on how many roles are flying around, 3rd parties, etc, but I'd imagine 2-3, maybe 4 depending on role distributions. But I think I'd guess about 3.

LTD 2,241 Posted July 5, 2018 Based on that, I'll vote for the 3rd player in the list. ## vote EbonHawk Then my theory goes the 7th, and then the 11th. I'm offline now for a number of hours - so I'll just be quietly trudging along in the snow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've not breadcrumded or said my role, simply using some flavour! And also no the only bull was not hanging the jedi. Flavour is not a mechanic but helps the game flow, and in your case right now trying to jump in and make a point bout nothing following ginkss questions...

Madaghmire 7,274 Posted July 5, 2018 I wasnt building a case. I’ve always been pretty clear about how I feel regarding breadcrumbing and flavor. And it was nonsense. First, the game should have ended as soon as the mafia died. Second, a win by yourself win con with no kill ability, is stupid. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
