00s Band Mafia (Game Over!)

[nintendoaddict1]

i like pacman already.

Mega Man <3

Aqua Man? jkjk

Nameclaim should be done today but slightly later, after people have reads, so it can be done popcorn style. Easier to catch scum that way cuz otherwise the scum could wait it out and claim based on what bands have already been claimed, the type of music being used, etc.

[Regfan]

yes but this also could benefit scum, nameclaiming just causes flavor speculation and then people get off-task at the game at hand.

also, did i mention it could benefit scum?

As far as I can tell the benefits exceed the negatives greatly. I don't see much possible that scum can gain from band-claiming, if you have something you believe they would please share. The longer we delay name-claiming the more time we allow for scum to come up with their fake-claims.

This isn't exactly a fast-paced game and it's not that hard to come up with a band and a song that refers to "powers everyone has." We're not gonna gain anything by rushing it.

Valid point. I'll refrain from stating my town-reads at the current moment.

Vote: Goath.

This is in no way random.

Enlighten us then?

[Talapus]

Ya, we definitely need more peeps in here talking before we consider dropping band names. I also truly hope some of us don't get too focused on some of them or whether we buy it on band name alone. It always leads to problems in theme games when people vote on name alone.

[Hiraki]

I shall update myself with the recent occurances in the next hour or so, but first I want to suggest the idea of band-claiming.

In the rules it blatantly states that some mafia will have bands that aren't from the 00's meaning it's possible that they themselves will have to fake-claim giving us a chance to have instant counter claims.

Why does it seem that you think I'm being a little serious, or anyone else, about the name claims?

I really don't care about them. It was quite the "hardy har har" joke.

Name claiming in a game that has more than 20+ names plausible is really stupid.

For all you know, Slaxx could've picked some random band from the 2000's that no one knows. Like the amazing, but relatively unknown "The Hush Sound".

See? Name-claiming is stupid. Scumhunting is muy delicioso.

[chesskid3]

in90s all the bands were well known

[Scumhunter]

What if my band isn't from the 00s? Or what if I'm scum and can't think of a band name to fake claim as because I don't know enough about music? D:

[C-Worl]

Sorry I forgot to confirm. Totally just noticed the game too.

Vote: chesskid3

I believe he owes me an apology.

[nintendoaddict1]

5. Town-aligned roles will have their main performance song from the 2000s. Mafia will have their songs from other decades.

[Hiraki]

See Nintendo? This is sarcasm.

Glad you didn't vote though, that's really scummy in your scenario.

Looked like a question to me. So I answered it. Simple, eh?

Maybe do some then?

Fantastic scumhunting there, dude. Great case.

[Regfan]

My suggestion to band-claim had nothing to do with your 'joke', it was something I was pondering pre-game. I still see no reason not to at the moment.

------------------------
Evilpacman, I'll enlighten in regards to how Gaoth is mafia in time, I want to see some more players thoughts of the game first.
------------------------
Scumhunter, any early reads?
------------------------
Nintendo, what's your thoughts on chesskid and Pine at the moment?

this guy gets it we need more people like him

[C-Worl]

Since we're asking what if questions, "What if I stuck my pecker in a toaster? What would happen then?"

Seriously, the discussion seems stupid right now.

You'll need to be more specific, which posts do you believe are 'what if' questions and do you find the people asking them to be scummy due to it? Also, if you believe the discussion was 'stupid' right now why not attempt to move conversation elsewhere?

Exactly, fluff post that contributed zero to anything but drawing suspicion towards yourself.
UNVOTE:
VOTE: C-Worl

[Pine]

Knowing C-Worl as I do, that's probably more of a Town post. He's a fluffy idiot when he plays Town, and more reserved and focused when scum.

1) Scumhunter was asking the what if questions.
2) I don't find it scummy I just find it stupid.
3) Because by acknowledging that the convo is stupid you identify that it's an easy place for scum to hide.

Likelihood is that I'll be V/LA for the next few days (Internet might be getting shut of), so I'm just going to post my anaylsis now.

Pages 1-3

Post #4 by Chesskid3 - Miller claim, reads as legitimate. Town-read from it.
Post #7 by Nintendo - Revenge vote, null-tell ultimately.
Post #11 by Talapus - Unsure whether to read this as over-eager scum or noob-town, leaning the latter barely at the moment.
Post #22 by DH - This was discussed pre-game before roles were handed out, bringing this up again reeks of scum.
Post #23 by Pine - Pines reaction reads as town.
Post #25 by Hiraki - Unsure what he means about Nintendo or it's relevance, null tell for now.
Post #30 by DH - Continues attacking Pine for something that's a known null-tell, random voting and asking for a lynch is essentially the definition of the RVS period.
Post #34 by Hiraki - Interesting comment, need to check and read into Hirakis meta a bit however I'd consider it to be a town-tell.
Post #35 by Gorilla - Sweet. Fairly sure G is town from this post.
Post #47 by Gaoth - Complete filler, avoids commenting on the PL suggestion.
Post #48 by Goath - Reads as buddying, brings up a past game which seems to have no relevance to this one.
Post #51 by Evilpacman18 - Setup discussion is a town-tell for Evil, him agreeing towards band-claiming reads as a town-tell.
Post #60 by C-Worl - Very slight town-tell from lack of notice towards the game.
Post #68 by C-Worl - Complaint about the direction of scumhunting being taken with a lack of alternative suggested, slight town-tell from it however.
