I'm notorious for something?

The only thing I've ever been told about myself is I'm a horrible human being. Usually that's the criticism I remember from my past mafia games

I don't know anyone who has said that, to be honest.

Wish I could say the same.

I think they're just talking about your gameplay, not you as a person, so you shouldn't take it personally.

I don't take things said about my gameplay seriously, if I cared to be seen as a better/more enjoyable player I'd change the way I play. I stopped claiming a long time ago because I found that it worsened the overall game enjoyability for me. If I ever talk about what people have said about me, it's not about mafia its entirely what people have said about me as a person. Though I appreciate what you are trying to say.

This was an assumption made, which is nonsense.

There were enough people who have played with a soup kill that town should have made sure the stakes were clear to everyone involved. I know if I was town, I would have been shouting from the rooftops that claiming/hinting/softing is all suicide. I also would have been playing significantly more soup-defensive (softing roles/characters I didn't have and the like). The only town player that I can say played well around the soup was Guillo. Many others played fine in not revealing much, but many just didn't heed the soup kill enough, and no one made sure everyone was aware of the full implications.

I think really what town needed this game was a leader. Ender could have played the role if they survived, but someone needed to coordinate town pushes, stop the early hammer D2, boost morale D2 and D3, and keep claiming/softing in check, but no one stepped up to that role.

I can't express how much I hate the conclusion of your post. You say town needs a leader, but for example let's take me, becoming a good leader is impossible for a player like myself who isn't able to be informed. If I was town this game, I'd be leading under the falsehood that I understood the anti claim mechanic, and would ruin town.

It's crazy to say "Well the vets just need to let everyone know and be the leader." You are just gatekeeping and making it harder on others.

My advice is to label things clearly for players, or add a depresciption along with what weird term you want to use.

Either say (Mafia has a mass anti claim one use ability) or (Mafia has a soup kill. *soup kill is blah blah blah*)

Imagine reading this "There is a one use soup kill in this game" the direct quote from the start of this game.

Me for example, I know what an anti claim mechanic is. I've never heard of a soup kill before, but when I read "a one use" my expected assumption is one of our town claims can be killed via this mechanic.

I think asking a player who hasn't experienced a game like this to assume that mafia can kill the entire town in a single night is loltier.

This was an assumption made, which is nonsense.

NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: ↑Mon Jul 05, 2021 7:03 pm Questioning the need for a soup kill is fair, but it was in the OP that there's a soup kill and that claiming role or character is punished. So. Ignoring that isn't really something you can reasonably blame the host for, you were warned, you ignored it, there were consequences

I think this is terrible logic. Especially as a long term mafia player who has experienced many versions of anti claim. There is something called "expected consequences" my experience with it comes from childcare psychology. You say well "you were told something could possible happen, so anything that happened afterwards can't be complained about" which is hilariously absurd. Many standard mafia players would probably set a realistic expectation of "there is an anati claim vig in this game, if we claim it will add one kill per night." Instead what the result ends up being, is an anti claim that literally gives potential for mafia to kill every single living town player in one night. I rolled mafia this game, and I thought to myself "yeah this is going to be the easiest win of my life, there will be at minimum 4-5 kp with this lategame." I also knew every town member was not going to expect this, because it's such an abusrd extreme for a host to apply in his game.

If hosts want to get away from town just mass claiming roles to win, I tend to think the roles/alignments should be balanced around claiming, and not just handing mafia a massive killing tool. Give mafia an entire claimable role list, etc.

I don't tend to enjoy talks like these, but tbh Nanook I've really dislike the attitude you've shown about certain complaints. Especially your response to what Axehole did.

I'm not going to play with players who think it's okay to try and publicly angleshoot with a dead player who is no longer allowed to post in the game. This is a clear breach of integrity for how mafia games are supposed to be run. It specifies that communication is only limited to chats that are apart of the game, and sending codes is not apart of that.

If this is allowed in future Syn games, I'm probably going to find somewhere these to fill my mafia desire

What? Are we playing the same game here?

Idk. I know claims and such, but sometimes mafia is very simple. Kill those who are trying to push the anti town agenda. I don't see how Axe dying is ever good for us

Phew yikes

I mean, to say that this is a good example of what a Syn game is would be hilariously wrong. Lot of non Syn people imo

This game got toxic and shit?

Come on guys, Syn is better than this

Why are people spamming my mentions

Grogu wrote: ↑Sun Jul 04, 2021 2:06 am This is why I said: I literally cannot die. I leave the game but talk to aang and tell them my reads amd get to solve. I didn’t understand who aang was when I read my role. That’s why I realized later on my role was actually very important. I make aang stronger.
Good luck friends. I think killing me is the best play since axe has to be town also.
We need to look at the people like creature who jumped on me and long con.
Just very suspect, those would be the people I would vote but I don’t think we can change everyone mind.

Looks like one of my reads might be correct, pogchamp

Hmm, but are you wolves *together*?

Two things.

If I am a wolf, I'd bus the fuck out of my teammate. It's just easier, because when someone is already on the chopping block you stick out so much by defending them that you'd just be killed right after.

Second I could be wrong, you make your own decision on Grogu, my alignment shouldn't make or break whether you kill Grogu or not

I wouldn't do this, but I'd have to read the take on why they voting you

I'm losing my mind today, gl

NGL this game has been absurd, first game in a while. We've had a modkill from discord messages, a player completely fake a red check he held onto, and then someone openly trying to break the game by talking to a dude player via code.

It's hard to keep focusing when I'm used to "cleaner games"

How about we just don't listen to axe then? If he's town nothing is forcing us to ever listen to his lying

idc what you call me

Also Axe trying to get the poisoner to out so they can anti claim the poisoner. Great job bud

Asking a dead player to communicate with you via out of thread actions.

What in the world is this game

I've had a beyond terrible night. Hope this does something fun

Oh I hammered, well

Grogu is saying some good stuff

gets my seal of approval

I am home
'pog

I'm worried more about the tsp/off wagon votes ATM. I've thought a lot about the situation and what mafia wanted to accomplish

My confident read of the game is TSP town, so gl

OK, nothing that interesting happened during night, just focused on eod

Hmm, either Luckbox is mafia, or there are mafia sitting in the 3 man group I saw pushing them.

Ponder.

Bo Burnham's inside, was decent

Sig, lets tdome. I'm feeling spicy this game

StarV was in the game that turned me transgender, so just par for the course

Not to worry friends, I saved the chat as I expected this to happen. I'm surprised Nanook is on top of his game, someone must have squealed.

Whenever I play with StarV crazy shit happens

Might be the dumbest thing I've seen in a mafia game

Aids to the highest degree

town reading most of the 2 vote wagons

hmm

What have I done to get town reads? Seems weird to me

I think Luckbox is town shrug
