Forum Revival TV Tropes Mafia Revival - D7

[Eifie]

can I further the confirmation bias and speculate that maybe boq's somewhat vocal distrust of Panini and M&F could've been a factor in his death

 

[Ottercopter]

I'm hoping that that amount of time will give us a chance to learn more stuff or move the discussion forward toward finding a mafia member instead.
That way, if my role does something, it still has a chance to work.

ok i like this answer honestly

The trope talk is kind of going over my head right now, will catch up on it later. Boq's trope would be good to know, though.

maybe a controversial q but how do people feel about negrek, specifically @Keldeo

Initial thinking: like, fine, reasonable posting. Claim is pretty towny given the meta here - I don't remember what reaction she had toward VM specifically, I remember it being maybe flat but it was early so I don't think she would be committal either way, I could reread that. I agree with Eifie that she's probably telling the truth about her role, but I don't see her ability, in itself, as extremely alignment-indicative. She voted ILS but I don't remember her progression on him so want to look into that.

Spoiler

Super wild idea: Everyone dying happy will reincarnate later as part of a cult

 

[Ottercopter]

Just re-emphasizing here, my role PM DOES say that I'm town aligned, not a third party. And that a town win where I don't accomplish my role is preferable to a mafia win where I do.

if anyone brings up "blah blah possible frame" I'm gonna post mildly scolding faces at them because idk if I've literally ever actually seen a framing kill and definitely definitely not on n1

i'm still living in woweeland with this one though

these are my Thoughts that i have to collect into a postable format sometime soon

also keldeo your spoilerspec is kind of terrifying me rn

my thoughts on negrek are basically that i think everyone’s read on them is based 100% on their role and they seem fine with that
also i feel like scum would sooner go for negrek than someone like boq if their claim is legit
but meh. i think overall i feel fine. the role is good enough for me to lean town for now, would rather focus energy elsewhere

Kinda wanna believe Otter, but the same problem comes up as for if she was an actual jester or something - if she knew or sincerely believed that getting herself lynched would benefit herself, I am not sure why she wouldn't self-vote instead of abstaining.

Maybe she didn’t know she could self-vote? Idk, I’m grasping at straws

tbqh i have thoughts but am trying to decide if now is the time to give them, i don't want to derail but i also do think it's related

Tell us when you’re comfortable, but do tell!

Just to clarify: do you know exactly what the trigger is for your role to change? I'm not asking you to tell us what it is just now.

 

[mewtini]

Maybe she didn’t know she could self-vote?

even in this case she had many other ways to keep the vote on her; the hammer was SWINGING towards her before she claimed a jesteresque role. i don't really think she's dumb (even if i did mention she seemed a bit frazzled during d1) so i'm choosing to trust atm

good I'd be interested in hearing that

I'm too lazy to do anything except be like "hmm" about it myself

ok I probably wouldn't actually read what you write very carefully but you know

I haven't played Mafia in maybe six or eight years, but I DO know self voting is a thing. I've seen Activated Aliens and the like do it.

 

[Eifie]

btw I just want to say that was the most fun EoD I've ever been a part of

most EoDs leave me with a mild feeling of self-loathing and nebulous anxiety after the green flip

 

[kyeugh]

i mean self voting kind of transparent isn’t it
not that “it’s good if i get lynched lole” isn’t basically as transparent as it gets but like

 

[Eifie]

maybe I'll pressure Panini a little even though she's gonna respond to this with a bunch of eloquent and hard-hitting posts that will make me go "sorry. i'm sorry. i'm trying to remove it"

Wait. Then if you knew self-voting is a thing, why didn’t you self-vote?

 

[kyeugh]

mewtini i don't have a gen 7 team smh

no mafia reads maybe?

hot take: vengeful town would get to kill someone as they get lynched
