Mini 1018ÔÇôÔÇôDNA Evidence (Game Over)

[pacman281292]

Hello everyone!

1. How would you define your playstyle? bleh.
2. Do you plan to play differently this game than in your other games, or will you be sticking to your meta? I don't often care about this.
3. Do you know your win/loss record here on MS? What is it? IDK, but I don't win much
4. Can you link us to any of your past games? No, because all of them got moved I-don't-know-where (I've not played here for one whole year)
5. What is your opinion on lurking? I don't like it, but I don't often go LynchAllLurkers.
6. How active will you be this game? One or twice per day on weekdays, maybe more on weekends but depend on how busy I am.
7. Are you scum? If so, who are your scumbuddies? Hahahah, so funny...
8. Which people here do you know and/or have played with before? I think I've played zwet, but I'm not sure. No one else.
9. How large will your posts normally be? Depends on circumstances; I try to avoid text walls, but they follow me...
10. What do you think players should do when a thread is open for pre-game chat? Spam it! (jk)

Let's start a BW

Answers to questions:

1. I tend to have a mix of aggressive and defensive play depending on my role, what other players roleclaims are and what kind of situation we are in.
2. We'll have to see.
3. No idea.
4. http://www.mafiascum.net/forum/viewtopi ... 23&t=14225 most recent game
5. Lurking is scummy but not scummy enough to merit a lynch unless there is more to support the lurker is scum.
6. I'll try to be as active as I can. In general I try to post/be online 2-3 times a day. I should be online (although not necessarily on this site) from 4(?) to 10 PM every day MST.
7. I am scum with Michael Jackson and Barack Obama.
8. Haven't played with many of these people. I think I played with DJ but I may be thinking of another game I was following.
9. Depends on how much content there is to comment on.
10. Talk and try to get quick early reads as soon as possible to make the RVS as short and as painless as possible.

'ello. /confirm, obviously. Prox, my rule #1 is not to answer long chains of questions, so yeah.

[Korashk]

Meta is like how your playstyle was like in past games.

That's what I thought. Then I don't really have a meta.

The Scum are the minority that the Townies [the majority] wish to eliminate. A scumbuddy is a ally of a player who is Scum and is almost always also Scum.

I assume that this refers to players that play stupidly, not mafia members. We have a few of those at debate.org/

When you say overanalyze, do you mean that you often think too hard about people and WIFOM [see the Mafiascum wiki to look up terms you don't know]?

I did WIFOM when I first started to play, since then I've toned it down. Occam's Razor and all that jazz.

I've been meaning to join debate.org for a while. I didn't know they played mafia there.

Ya, it's actually almost my turn to mod another small game. I actually prefer modding to playing. There are a lot of members, but only about 50 actives. it's a fairly tight-knit online community.

[Prox]

Also, questions (for everyone):

1. How would you define your playstyle?

A work in progress. One day it'll be solid, but not (too) aggressive. I hope the two don't contradict.

2. Do you plan to play differently this game than in your other games, or will you be sticking to your meta?

I'll be playing better than my last games, hopefully, but probably not very differently.

3. Do you know your win/loss record here on MS? What is it?

I've got one ongoing game besides this one. I'm a dead townie there so you could get some insight, at least.

4. Can you link us to any of your past games?

Yes, but not right now. Atm I am on a mobile (therefore terrible) browser

5. What is your opinion on lurking?

It's stupid. Only scummy when done in a scummy way, but I won't like you if you do it, either way. Regardless, Lynch All Lurkers is antitown and borderline scummy.

6. How active will you be this game?

Excessive until...School starts.

7. Are you scum? If so, who are your scumbuddies?

Is the answer to this question "No"?

8. Which people here do you know and/or have played with before?

Shotty. I have mixed feelings about him. You'll see.

9. How large will your posts normally be?

Big. But I take care to make them either not too big, easy to read, or have a concise summary below them.

10. What do you think players should do when a thread is open for pre-game chat?Engage in pregame chat. I think, an early and casual RS (preferably a RQS and not an RVS) can help get the game off to a good start before it starts.

@zwet: I'll resent you for that.

Meta is like how your playstyle was like in past games.

That's what I thought. Then I don't really have a meta.

Sure you do. We'll see.

The Scum are the minority that the Townies [the majority] wish to eliminate. A scumbuddy is a ally of a player who is Scum and is almost always also Scum.

I assume that this refers to players that play stupidly, not mafia members. We have a few of those at debate.org/

What you're thinking of are VIs, or villiage idiots. The scum and their scumbuddies are the bad guys. The townies are the good guys.

When you say overanalyze, do you mean that you often think too hard about people and WIFOM [see the Mafiascum wiki to look up terms you don't know]?

I did WIFOM when I first started to play, since then I've toned it down. Occam's Razor and all that jazz.

Sounds nice. I'll join soon.

prox, your questions seem mostly pointless. You're asking us to give you constraints on ourselves that you seem to be hoping to be able to use against us later on, which I find scummy. Your question 7 and 8 are typical from scum in the beginning of games, and 3 and 10 are just useless.

[drmyshottyizsik]

chill they are for fun, this is pre game

The reason for the Q's are meant to incur discussion and then accusations, leading to more discussion and time better spent than on Random votes. Not to speed up or hurt the Town's Day but to make it more accurate.

@shotty: No. Playing mafiascum is supposed to be fun, remember?

This is what I'm talking about. More and more discussion leads to more and more validity until a case valid enough for lynching occurs and hopefully scum is dead. RQS's work and are protown.

But if you disagree, idc.

[Prox]

Your question 7 and 8 are typical from scum in the beginning of games.

Also, links, please?

[pacman281292]

You can't force him to.

You seem waay too insistent. Fishy to me.

[Prox]

I'm not begging him to answer questions; I'm defending my actions.

[Korashk]

What's the point of a pre-game? Everyone has their roles and these day phases last forever. It's not like those that haven't confirmed won't be able to get a word in edgewise.

1. How would you define your playstyle?

Analytical and slightly aggressive.

2. Do you plan to play differently this game than in your other games, or will you be sticking to your meta?

I just play, I don't plan to play a certain way.

3. Do you know your win/loss record here on MS? What is it?

Check the sig.

4. Can you link us to any of your past games?

Check the wiki.

5. What is your opinion on lurking?

It's disrespectful to the rest of the players. I don't follow lynch all lurkers though, I prefer to ask for them to be replaced.

6. How active will you be this game?

I try to post in all my games at least once a day.

7. Are you scum? If so, who are your scumbuddies?

This question bothers me actually. Makes me think you might be.

8. Which people here do you know and/or have played with before?

Just drmyshotty. I think I might have marathoned with don_johnson during the server switch, but I could be misremembering.

9. How large will your posts normally be?

A few paragraphs unless I'm building a case. I have been known to make some walls, and I do engage in quote wars from time to time.

10. What do you think players should do when a thread is open for pre-game chat?

Exactly what we are doing.

Raccoons scream when you try and catch them. It sounds hilarious.

Fact. I just caught three raccoons on my front porch. Two of them got caught in the cages, but I had to chase the third one down. He was unhappy; very unhappy.

If only everyone were so lucky. We've got these deer we can't do anything about and they tear up anything that flowers or bears fruit.
