My Little Pony: Friendship is Mafia

[Geminex]

Fair enough. Really just going off my first impression here. And to be honest, I may have been too superficial (I was out of the game, after all), but while IHMN's stuff made sense, it never occurred to me that, hey, this guy really has a grip on things. LIke, now that he's talking, I've noticed that he has 11k posts and actually knows what the hell he's talking about, but before that, that wasn't the case. He had the logic down, but I felt it would've been more convincing through a different medium.
REGARLESS

Why aren't we gloating more?

Nah, it consisted of giving me rep fodder.

It's funny to reflect on the fact that the two players I most trusted as obv-Town did not apparently feel each other were obv-Town.

And we're not gloating more because the Mafiate was seriously handicapped this game, and dumb luck eliminated the Cult before it could even get started. I don't feel like this is a game Town should feel like they "won," unless your name happens to be IHMN, in which case yeah bro you're awesome go buy yourself some alcohol and celebrate your victory.

I mean let me be blunt, Oron, rpgdemon and Bard arguably played a better game than Sifright, Verified and Earl. Should the latter three really gloat over the former three?

(Though I still don't know why RPG claimed the obvious SK role, and his more assertive behavior was definitely something I noted as a sign he was likely anti-Town. And I'm mentioning Oron and Bard there because based on their public posts I felt they played a better game than Greed -- who was too inactive in a way that felt obviously scummy as early as D1 and D2 -- and Ryanderman, who was legitimately called out on some slippage.)

I thought all my posts made sense, but there were a couple posts, like this one, that were getting completely misread. I had thought that the GIFs would help, since I was pegging the mafia correctly, but could keep living since I was basically confirmed not to be the PO and the lack of words could be seen as non-threatening to the mafia. Then the town kinda ignored me and didn't realize that several mafia were night killed, specifically Bard but some accepted that Ryanderman was mafia. Two HoS on me at the end just before the game ended was the saddest thing.

I had no read on Gem since he died before I really started to play, which was after his death since that move seemed like it screwed the town.


I got repped by Fenris for the Pinkie summary post, Loyal who was hoping that I was scum, and Gregness cause of the GIFs and actually playing with them.

They won, so yeah.

I kid, honestly, I get that everyone played a good game, expcept for some members of town. But a bit of joking gloating is always fun.

Also, I totally believed teh IHMN was trustworthy. I just didn't believe that he was necessarily right about everything, and the pony gifs made it hard for him to explain why he had his hunches.

[Solid Snake]

Oh and I'm glad Fenris apparently admitted back there that letting Dr. Whooves know who the untouchable-at-night character was, was not a great idea. I was not trying to be anti-Town by going after Karesh and Sifright because of it, I legitimately thought there was no way Sifright would be given the opportunity to ensure that the untargetable role would not be lynched.

EDIT: Before anyone gets butthurt, let me just specify that many of you who played "terrible" games shouldn't feel too bad about it; some of you got slated weird Power roles that you just didn't have the experience to handle, and for that matter for many of you this was something like your first or second Mafia game. The important thing is virtually everyone not named "Verified" improved their play. Sifright became notably more competent as the game progressed, even though several of his hunches were dead wrong. Earl learned an important lesson when he misplayed his Power role. For the record, I sucked through my first few Mafia games and had to learn tons of shit, too. You'll get better if you keep playing.

That wasn't at all my intention, I was simply impressed with how well you were able to play given your restriction. I apologize.

Also, IHMN, could you tell me what about my play kept making you HoS me? I didn't think anything I was doing was particularly scummy, but it being my first game I'll accept there may be factors I'm not considering.

Also, I'm genuinely surprised that your entire role was simply the posting restriction. 90% of the reason I was suspicious of you was because I didn't think Fenris would give you that hefty a penalty without some other power to compensate you.

Snake your day 1 strategy was totally risky as shit. While you helped out a lot of the mafia you outted most of the town power and gave the cult and presumably the mafia a good list of targets.
If the cult was by someone who wasn't as big a target as I was and they had a few days they would have totally crippled the town.

Like this is why I was convinced you were some kind of scum because whie you gave us maybe 1 or 2 scum roles you gave us quite a few town power roles . I was assuming you were sacrificing yourself to give the mafia information.

Like Snake, stop calling people out on "terrible" games, ffs. You were a massive help to the cult if they didn't get wiped out day 1 and I'm assuming the mafia got helped by it too.
You are in no position to commen ton the games of other and aren't some amazing super player.

Wut
I do not remember outing any Town Power, unless you're talking about outing IHMN. How was the PO, Mayor or the Vig 'outed' by anything I did? I certainly didn't out myself as Reviver. And, again, 5 of my 7 D1 hunches in my serious "D1 suspicions" post were anti-Town roles.
What I did do was ensure greater activity led to lots of pertinent D1 and D2 information that Town could later rely upon to, for example, establish Nik was scummy the moment I flipped, suspect Greed for his inactivity, etc.
