Best MafiaScum Game to Explain Mafia to friends
Hey guys,
The question is plain and simple: if I wanted to show an exemplary game to a friend or relative, what do you think is a great game I can use as an example to help them understand the core physics of this game? I assume it would be a Newbie game, but everything is allowed, also a game from another site if that helps. I feel like games such as Town of Salem and Werewolf Online are bad to show to them because they are fast-paced, and that will only suit regular players that have already played a few games of Mafia / Werewolves.
I could also show them the rules with the Wikipedia page but that's far from all. They hardly even discuss 3rd party roles on there, so yeah.
Preferably a game with a few power roles, a few vanilla roles, and if possible, one simple 3rd party role like serial killer or jester. That way I can show them a game and explain what is happening in that game after having explained the core rules.
Final note: It's obviously better to play long-timed games first instead of 15 minute rapid ones you find on Town of Salem, so I'll always recommend this site to them. Do you agree?
You can select 3 answers which best suit the question asked in the poll. I picked 3, 4 and 5 (in that order) because I think it's good when they've seen a low-paced game, and seeing you play a fast-paced game might be good when they already know about the basics of Mafia/Werewolves (despite it going so fast)
Thanks in advance from the viz.Currently away from site for indeterminate time (except for Song Contest)-

Wikipedia and newbie game.
Reading other people's games is boring imo."Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"
"Well, I..."
"What? Nothing? You would make the prince suffer over... nothing?"-

It's not exciting to me unless I have an alignment.
Part of mafia's fun to me is the roleplay of believing in my heart that I am a noble villager aiming to root out corruption and evil
That's why I hate rolling scum so much I have to literally be evil so black much cry"Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"

I would say just join a newbie game. It’s okay not to know everything about the game, and the more games played the more you learn, and that’s the case throughout the mafia career.CHECK OUT MY HOW TO PLAY AS SCUM GUIDE Maybe it'll help you catch me
