Contest Pokémafia Spectacular! - Game Thread

[qenya]

jack it is then

Robbin used Self-Destruct!

not this.

oh yeah. @M&F can we have confirmation that day actions will delay EoD if they occur in the last 24h. after the shenanigans last time.

 

[qenya]

imagine actually "playing" the "game"

wait, i thought mf said the contest type is determined outside of our own move choices?

snapread sande town for being confused about this

i know it's a snapread but can you elaborate on this at all?

oh i was just thinking. if sande were in scumchat (obligatory: "assuming there is a scumchat") it would be more likely to have a grasp of the rules given Twice the number of places to discuss them. no special insights or 4d chess here im afraid

currently at rnp/qenya (a little bit more the latter) light v for reasons
likely holding off on reading sande/wisper for now, also for reasons

aww you flatterer you. i do love to be townread

 

[qenya]

Aw guys look Paul Paul came up to me with this in his mouth (which is weird cause like he seems to have opposable thumbs??)

PAUL PAUL! i love and appreciate him.

ok yeah, that's sort of what i expected

i feel like i personally don't buy into "confused about mech > townie" because it assumes that scumchat is a) always active and b) talking about this particular mech and c) that player X is even necessarily reading everything

also when sande and i cowolfed it was a relatively mechy/gimmicky game similar to this and sande posting questions and having generally very pure tone made everyone townread them when they were not town. LOL. (none of this to say that i have any particular read on sande, either, i'm just wary of being pocketed by them in specific because i know that if i hadn't been literal mafia with them in that game i prob would have townread them too)

 

[mewtini]

ok that was a lot of words but basically

all that to say that "being lost != not mafia"

95% saying that for my own benefit

Ah, good point, until you said that my read had been "sande has a misconception of the rules > sande prob didn't read the rules as carefully as scum would > sande maybe town" but good point, my logic was faulty

 

[RNP]

hey so i'm running an experiment tonight so don't use Cleverness unless absolutely necessary please

hi mewt hope youve been good

i assume from your phrasing you don't have a take on sande from this - do you have one on qenya?

 

[sanderidge]

i am here before i nap!! albeit for a tiny bit since i am very sneeby. maybe having three things at olive garden was not in fact a smart move

did get a chance to skim thread while i was out and i have to say like. of the tcod mafia renaissance non-bastard games i've played i think i wasn't town in either of them (hamilton mafia 3p, snomfia mafia; was town in knives alley but bastard game + i spent so much of that game paranoid that i barely remember it) so i very much understand how people would be hesitant to run on tonereading/wouldn't want to put stock in that. can say that i will do my best to be helpful and solvy and hopefully contribute to things rather than leave it up to tone or chance!! though i can't promise i'll be the best at it i do think i've learned a bit stuff since i started playing here. (on the other hand this is an MFia and i don't, i don't know if what i can come up with will be helpful?) regardless i will do my best to prove myself/help in other ways!!

 

[M&F]

bwahahaha I'd forgotten about that one but I guess the directly affected wouldn't soon forget-

anyway, no confirmations I'm afraid, but that is how I'd normally run it yes

 

[M&F]

(also we're technically like, two hours from EoD, but again I'm not flipping this thing until it's a more reasonable hour for future EoDs)

 

[Zero Moment]

It's dangerous to go alone, take this!

 

[RNP]

hey so i'm running an experiment tonight so don't use Cleverness unless absolutely necessary please

it's abt the minutae of the setup i'll explain my findings tomorrow

 

[JackPK]

rnp I s2g if you're scum with a power of "kills everybody who didn't pick Clever" I will self-eject into the stratosphere

 

[RNP]

it's a lot simpler than that and also not stupidly overpowered like damn could you imagine

i do but i’m waiting to see how it develops
i kinda said it earlier but i’ve since paranoia backed away from
it

(also heyyyyyy hope you’ve been good too! i’m glad to be hanging w/you again B) )

hi sande i’m hype to play with you again and sorry if my post about you came off overly, like, negative?, after i posted it i was worried it sounded weird

 

[sanderidge]

no i'm hype too!! sorry if i sounded overly stiff/formal, it was just a lot of "i understand and think this is reasonable but please do not take this as a confession of guilt"... trying to convey a lot at once hgjksdnfgh

 

[mewtini]

no you’re all good i just wanted to make sure you knew i wasn’t trying to be hard on you out of nowhere ;___;
