Large Normal 211: Scientific Mafia

[profii]

I've got to ask. How many people here have played in a game with James or I?

We played that newbie game where you were JK right? I don’t know who James is

[Inferno390]

James (Full name James Brafin) is another player on the site and my brother, so I read all of his games.

Focusing night actions on the neighborhood might be a good approach if we're reasonably certain there is scum there.

Would mafia claim something like this this early?

Looks like they had a cleaner gambit in mind than what they attempted

How is this alignment indicative?

Can we stop normalizing town making shitty fakeclaim gambits please

If you really have to take this angle then you can consider flavor a policy lynch best by either the play or the actual role

Yassss, PREACH

The odds of this being an all town neighborhood are very low.

Obvious is obvious

tell me something i dont know

I've lost almost 20 pounds since year start.

How many scum should we expect in a 20p game

The hood seems to have outed itself with no disputes - is a 1 in 4 chance at mafia going to be better than however many in 20

I’m assuming we don’t have 5 scum here so surely yes?

The higher the number of players goes, the fuzzier the math gets. I'm a little rusty, but best guess is 6 scum, with possibility for Vig and/or SK, or 5 without. Alternatively, two teams of 4 or high-powered teams of 3. 13v3v3v1 is especially likely if there's a SK. Likely with a BP on both scumteams?

Like I said, the math is a lot fuzzier at 20 than at lower numbers.

This feels self-serving despite its apparent logic.

Catching scum is self serving?

Well, I know I'm town so why would I want people to night action me?

[Lil Uzi Vert]

TIAM is probably town

Thanks for the love, LUV.

Hard for me to put into words.

The level of ignorance he just displayed doesn’t feel fabricated. It reads like he’s generally annoyed with your comment and believes he can call you out on it.

[TwoInAMillion]

How is it ignorance? If there is a pro-town solution to target neighbors and pine is against it how does that not make him scummy?

Ugh, that actually makes sense.

Vote Flavor Flav with me

Um. This seems like a classic scum response.
I agree with pine on TIAMs response in terms of it seems to come from scum. It doesn't really seem self serving to me, more of "soft bus my partner in the neighborhood for towncred." Bussing the neighborhood without actually smoking out a partner, you know?
Or in the case of two scumteams, TIAMs team may not have a member in the neighborhood, so the presence of it would suggest that the other team has a player in it instead.

[Pine]

Nah, I'm thinking LUV's got the right of it here.

[Inferno390]

Or here's a thought: More than one scum in the neighborhood? One from each team? Assuming, of course, two teams.

[Inferno390]

I dunno. I feel like there's a truth to what LUVs saying, but at the same time, there's a part of this that seems off in what TIAM is doing.

Feels like scumslip, but probably isn't?

Nah I’m not feeling Boon.

I think y’all just annoyed because you can’t trust him until he’s been copped by confirmed town.

Looks like scum, but probably is too obvious. Maybe NewTown?

[TwoInAMillion]

You can agree or disagree that there are scum in the neighborhood but I don't see how my logic is poor.
