Never played Mafia online (though often in person) - I’ve followed many of the threads here on the Dope, and I have to say, Peeker was totally pinging my Scum meter, big time. I was really surprised that he flipped Town. No offense to his play style, but it was so random and hectic that it felt sure to me that he was trying to muddy the waters. If Chronos flips scum, as Peeker suspected, I will be seriously impressed.
come play. the water is fine except for the sharks.
and if you really want grins and giggles go to idle’s board. the freaking great whites troll around over there. but we are always looking for small fish to dine on.
BTW, this would appear to be a situation where the unconfirmed Town could guarantee a win by engaging in mass-suicide-by-Mod, unless there are several more Scum than you’d suppose. (two more scum would be more than you’d expect, although not completely out of line given Drain’s significant drawback. Three more would be a lot.)
Yes, which is why I said what I did. The problem with a soft claim (if true) is that it gives Scum information that’s valuable to them (who a power role is; they don’t care much exactly what the role is), but it does not give Town anything that can help them significantly. So once a power role is revealed to be a power role, it is in Town’s best interest for them to tell more. This does not necessarily mean that they tell Town everything, just that they tell enough for Town to plan around their powers to some extent.
Oh, and I think it’s probably spoilerish if I talk about anything about my role here, but I’ll say some about that on the spoiler board, and once the game is over.
MHaye’s right that the timing of IS’s day one vote should not be held against him. Obviously I want him alive given he subbed in for me, but regardless, it’s the principle of the thing.
Now the content of what I said before I had to leave, that’s a different story.
it was a smart aleck comment chronos so just chill. in that game the mod went missing and we ended up having to get a sustitute mod to stand in. everyone was supposed to truthfully send her our pms and then she would take over. the beast went on for fracking ever.
so i was just being a smart ass in a light hearted way.
