    kyeugh's been killing it at mafia recently, but this might be the high point tbh

    Big thanks to Butterfree for hosting, and for finally letting us in on what was going on behind the scenes with TVTropes Mafia I. This was a great idea for the first mafia game on Xenforo, and it's great to get some closure on the old TVTropes Mafia with both the endgame reveal and the reprise...

    Mmmm, I think if scumchat didn't exist the game would be heavily, *heavily* skewed town. Having information about alignments is the only leg up the mafia have in normal play. Yes, maybe Butterfree could get around that to some extent by giving the mafia truly absurd powers, but I don't think...

    Since it sounds like the mechanics of the swap are mad fucked if you swap with someone of a different alignment, perhaps someone you're pretty sure is Town and simply want to confirm?

    I don't know that it's the closest we've gotten to understanding Seshas' MI tidbit, which is vague and could mean any number of things. It's easy to play into some of the guesses people have been making with complete lies when the claim is essentially "I can fuck with the night phase in nearly...

    I see no reason to assume that anything in Mawile's post is truthful and think he has every reason to try to mislead us/cause as much chaos as possible, so I don't see any benefit engaging with it, tbh

    That's fair, having two slots there allows for more diversity in roles that target one or the other.

    Mmm, yeah, that's fair. kyeugh's power doesn't indicate alignment iirc, and roleblocker can be either Town or Mafia, easy.

    Forum Revival TV Tropes Mafia Revival - D7

    Oh, so that's awks. So if someone did swap into a mafia alignment, they would become mafia-aligned and therefore incentivized to obscure what had actually happened? But then does the former mafia suddenly become Town and incentivize to rat out everyone else in that chat? That would certainly be...

    Forum Revival TV Tropes Mafia Revival - D7

    I think the existence of both a role and a power trope implies that it's possible for two different roles to have the same power, so nanobots being given to both "deadly doctor" and "the medic" doesn't actually wig me out, tbh. But I was suspicious of Stryke before, and that hasn't changed in...

    Nothing not predicated on an alignment shift after the start of the game, unfortunately. Like obviously if he started out as mafia everything becomes easy to explain EXCEPT his initial posts, which really would be some masterful planning/acting and a super bold move on the part of the mafia if...

    Hmm, well, to me it wouldn't have been a backtrack at all if he'd claimed nanobots doc starting Day 2? That's what I was expecting to happen; the white mage claim threw me entirely for a loop. Thus the whole "but why's he white mage if Jack flipped innocent????" The only way VM should have...

    ...man, it seems like there has to be at least one mafia member fucking with us in the midst of all this healing confusion, but on the other hand claiming anything around this mess feels like a really ballsy play.

    The last TVT Mafia did indeed have a dayvig that I was hoping would make a reappearance, since I think the F-bomb killer idea is hilarious. However, I think if Butterfree were going to run another dayvig this game she would have had to change the trigger phrase, or else people would figure out...

    After which point I'm not entirely sure why he wouldn't have simply claimed nanobots doctor rather than white mage, since I think we probably would have assumed he'd stayed Town-aligned, but eh.

    Quick thought before I'm properly caught up: didn't VM reread his role PM as saying he got his new power at the start of the following night? So it's possible he would have gotten no result the first night, freaked out and made his daypost, reread his PM and gone "oops," and then actually...

    I have "meta knowledge," so the answer just comes to me. In practice what happens is that after a player dies, Dragonfree PMs me their name and role. I assume there's no way to tamper with at least the lynch results, because they come immediately after the lynch happens, so there wouldn't be any...

    Ah, yes, and wrt Eifie's trope in light of the bodyswapping that's been going on, I don't like it, obvs, but I'm going to need to sit down and review the claimed chain of trope swaps before I have a good idea of what might actually have happened. If it's not something like Keldeo's role trope...

    More later, but: I would say only if/when you think it would actually make a difference? I feel like either an MF lynch or Mawile lynch is very likely to happen today... is there any way the report of a redirector would change that? I feel like for all the contradictions around Mawile's claim...
