Mafia Reunion - NIGHT ZERO

Might be a good idea …

Grudges are bad, okay?

I mean, think about it. We’re in a different game, designed by a different Mod team, and roles are random With the major exception of Drain Bead, who is always a Scum roleblocker (three games in a row!) just because they were Scum last game doesn’t mean they’re scum now.

It doesn’t mean they aren’t either.

In this game the a priori odds of being Scum appear to be approximately two in seven, so more than a quarter of us are known anti-Town. However (to restate the opening) prior games as Scum don’t affect which team I’m on.

While I’m on; players with really long memories might recall that I’ll go to considerable lengths to avoid using the word “scum” for the main anti-Town team. This post may mark the first time ever.

The problem in this game is that “mafia,” “mafiate” or “Mafia-aligned” will be seen as referring to the Mafia team, and not the Werewolf team So I need a term for the two main anti-Town teams as a whole. I have (reluctantly) chosen “scum” for that.

I think I’m gonna pass…

I can already tell I’m going to have problems with that. I use all three terms interchangeably.

I can refresh you.

I’m the intelligent succinct and cohere… No I can’t do it. :smiley:

““Don’t worry about the future or worry that know that worrying
Is as affective as trying to solve an algebra equation
By chewing bubble gum
The real troubles in your life are apt to be things
That never crossed your worried mind
The kind that blindsides you at 4 p.m. on some idle Tuesday””

Is it wrong that almost everybody who posted overnight looks scummy to me?

Yes.

NETA:

Yes, unless you are in the Pacific Time Zone :slight_smile:

If this is the case, this immediate strikes me as a “Capture the Flag” type mechanic… The enemies gate is down.

Soooo, in favor of the multi-lynch? :smiley:

How about a massively multi-lynch. String up everybody except me. Town win. Easy game.

If there were some way to kill literally everyone, it seems to me that Town would in fact win. The win con doesn’t require anyone to be alive, just the scum teams to be dead.

Wasn’t there another game that could have been broken that way? But people refused to do it because it wouldn’t be sporting or something I think. This game is tripping all my nostalgia buttons.

Name names! What’s the term for vague suspicions?

I think not requiring people to confirm receipt of their role PM while also not knowing if they’ve all been sent out is a little off-putting, the game has sort of started, but not for all - is it pre-game banter or early game fluff with little scum hunting?

Maybe that’s all the switches do.

Aw… Remember that game where the guy had the power to do the thing and did the thing with the thing and we all died? Good times.

Oh, if I must.

Toejam (I liked Sinjin’s questioning)
Boozy – went straight for discrediting his critics, defense was sort of red herring-ish
Septimus – do we have other than mechanics posts in us, hmm?
Nanook, with the personal reminiscinces instead of playing this game
Guiri – are those questions really useful?

And I guess jsgoddess, for sort of fossing people who try to discourage talk but then not actually talking.

Oh, and I do have my PM.

By the way, as a game room mod, I give permission to have each and every game Day and even each different Night …its own thread. Because goodness knows these will be filled up pretty fast in the beginning.

So yeah, feel free to start a new thread for every game Day and Night… or… even, for example “Day 2 (cont)” if the first Day 2 gets too many posts in it (and I can close the first one for ya).

What game? It’s Night 0. There’s no way to know who has and has not received their PM. I’m supposed to scum hunt for people who don’t even necessarily know their role? No thanks.

oh boy- I really like this post! ^

I am at work and can’t contribute much at this point but following along as I can

I wouldn’t ever do this either.

I added it for you.
