Ankly what was your goal/endgame of switching to Soup in OT on day 2? Just to get rid of soup because he had been targeting you? Get rid of Soup. Also fake breadcrumbs because you people are obsessed with how people vote in the early days even though nobody really knows anything. |

no, i cared, i tried. you fucked this up. you shouldn't be pointing any fingers anywhere. You refused to place a vote and just said you "checked out" on the crucial second day of the game. I pointed plenty of fingers at Ank. In hindsight, of course I should've voted for him, but as a power role, I wasn't going to be the one to switch in OT and put a target on my back when I wasn't certain of Ank's alignment. no, you shouldn't have on day one. that would have been dumb. I don't understand how we didn't hold his feet to the flames after his switch. Instead yall took the pressure off and let him come up with a story. |

i said i would laugh when trofie and ank were the last 2 mafia. i lied. i am crying. i had their roles mixed up, but fuck me if bankz didn't screw us over and over When you had flipped them it made no sense since 20s said Trofie came back town aligned in his investigation. |

I take some blame for not murdering Ank when I had the chance, but I was thinking that dying there was one of the few ways to give the town information as a vanilla civ. And the possibility of killing a power role outweighed my selfishness of wanting to continue playing. you played it right |

The current TMBSL meta game. Trying to figure out who is who by analyzing voting patterns and also waiting for the sheriff to tell you what to do. |

Puts the host in a really tough spot. Waits are too long? Bankz quits. Waits are too short? Power role isn't around. i think we can both agree that 15 minutes isn't the ideal night move time though.
show me the 15 minute night

also, dirt literally chose to NOT protect anyone night 1. the guy thought his big brain in the game was worth more than having a dead mafia if his protection was successful. interesting choice at best.

Yeah, our bodyguard literally never protected someone. Congrats on that one, mafia. I mean he died night 2 and our night 1 hit was blocked by you. This had little to no effect. He was wholly inactive. That's detrimental to the town. An active bodyguard might live longer and have more opportunity to protect. |

Mafia, Ank in particular, played the game well, but they had a lot of help.

Maybe for those with power roles and maf, it's less fun if your a vanilla civ in this set up you say less fun but what youre trying to say is less easy. i dont see how having to think harder about information in the thread makes it less fun for any role. If we were all playing the game at the exact same time, I would tend to agree with you more. But for a lot of us, we're playing catch up reading multiple pages at a time. We're not seeing a real time chat.
Your set up would be fun for a chat room game with shorter days or for an in person game. In the message board format, it's too complex IMO. An increased challenge can be fun, but not when you're playing off the side of your desk

Vanilla town is the most fun role there is unless the game has a crazy number of power roles (which this one didn't).

I did not enjoy being Sheriff in a game with a Godfather. Made me second guess every single investigation unless it came back mafia. Investigated TimPig night 1 and was told town aligned, still somewhat suspected him on Day 2.

i see what you're saying. dachap was complaining to me in a similar fashion about how there was just so much useless drivel he found it difficult to keep up. The last few days was really more reasonable. I think to make mafia better for everyone ya'll (everyone in general; not you) need to stfu and stop spamming the threads with everything train of thought.
it didn't help that bankz literally trolled the entire town to the tune of 10 pages of bullshit while also being town

yeah it's tougher. I think it makes it more of an odds game. Like you know that ONE of your investigations could be bad, but not two or more of them. So while you can't definitely say someone is town, you can say that out of your town aligned investigations all but one of them are town. Then you have to look at what they do in the thread... it is definitely much harder.

I prefer having a power role or being mafio much more than being a vanilla civ. Vanilla civ is at the mercy of the group, power and maf roles can lead the game in a direction and that is more fun to me

As you can see from the past two games, my engagement is solely aligned to my irl availability. However, I will enjoy the game more personally if I feel I have some semblance of controlling or at least contributing to the outcome that does not involve blindly guessing for the most part. |

I really think you're underestimating the impact a vanilla town member can have. It takes more work, but can be just as important as a power role, whose contributions are obvious through their powers. |

IMO the most impactful players in this past game were 20s and Ank, Bankz too but in a negative fashion so I don't know if I want to count that.
In the first game I don't recall because I missed a lot, but maybe that's a better example

Bankz *could* have had an extraordinary positive impact for the town if he participated and read the rules to understand that he was saved by a doctor. |

Bankz *could* have had an extraordinary positive impact for the town if he participated and read the rules to u nderstand that he was saved by a doctor.... Because a power role interacted with him. So I guess it's correct to say a vanilla civ can have a significant impact, but not all as most of it seems to be out of their control |

But actually I'm kind of curious why I was the night 3 (or was it night 4?) mafia kill. Was it obvious I was a power role or did you just decide to hit someone who wasn't getting votes from other townspeople?

I laughed hard at bankz writing a paragraph last night on how he fucked up not voting ank, then voted jhb I was over this shit. I didn’t want to play in the first place. Then I got fucking saved by Tim and now I’m stuck doing this shit another day. I told everyone it’s Ank and as I make the case more and more town bail. So fuck it at that point. |

you were generally trustworthy and respected and we couldn't have that last much longer. and we just wanted to kill you.

Druce being pissed at anyone is just so rich. The guy who was mia and zero help for 80% of the game wants to be angry at others.
