The Jason Bourne Mafia Game
- Thread starter The Silver Shroud
- Start date
Sorry for not being worth much yesterday. I'm trying to learn a new language for work while actually doing my job so its a bit cramped. Honestly, it wouldn't have mattered yesterday as we weren't going to lynch anyone, but I'll do better.
This is literally the dumbest thing I've ever seen in a mafia game.
You asked me if I was mafia and you're complaining that we laughed at you?
Vote: Drixx
Ooh someone got salty really fast. We have the following red flags from Zarniwoop (in addition to the prior shade throwing and refusal at a direct answer)
1.) Personal attack - "...the dumbest thing..."
2.) Misrepresentation - "...complained that we laughed at you..."
The point of the question wasn't to get you to admit to being scum. The point was to see how you would (or would not) respond. In the course of that reaction test, another player jumped in and tried to muddy the waters. Then you showed up and tried to be all clever with the sarcasm that didn't really address the question.
Then you dodged the question again.
Now you've dodged it a third time.
Is it really so hard to just engage with it?
Sorry for the minimal posting today. I have been out all day today and yesterday trying to find a Kindergarten for my daughter. 
Anyway, nobody has really said anything about the lack of deaths.. Silver did point out in OP that there would be a lot of mayhem with game mechanics, or however he phrased it. I haven't heard anything about a lightning storm yet where all night actions got re-directed.. Anybody have anything useful to share yet?
My 50/50 comment was just upon my assumption that there are 3 scum. It's just a guess. I didn't want to post that and start debating about game setup though. 7/10 x 6/9 = 42/90 (2x Town), 3/10 x 2/9 = 6/90 (2x Mafia), leaving 42/90 (1x Town & 1x Mafia)
Glad to hear that Thingy has his role PM now.. Hopefully he will make an appearance. Perhaps Thingy is CAPTAIN again this game, and since he isn't issuing any ORDERS, nobody is getting killed!
@Drixx - You are definitely taking your question very seriously. The fact that you are making such a big deal over such an innocuous little thing, makes it look to me almost like a manufactured conflict between you and @Zarniwoop..

You know, I was thinking the same myself... until you just ran interference with his questioning for a second time.
I'm interested in @Drixx's questions, and @Zarniwoop's answer, much more keenly now.
And, where are all the answers to my question???
I ask everyone to name someone that they think is ISN,T mafia. Should be pretty straightforward unless you are worried about outing your partner(s).
AFAIC, you are ALL running interference!

Why do you vote for me asking D2 to clarify a statement, then shortly afterward ask D2 the exact same question?
I think Drixx has a valid point. Coming from the view point of another person who likes to ask inane day one questions just to see how they respond (the answer is often far less important than HOW a person answers), I can see his reasoning behind wanting Zarni to address the question.
Prestige7 is quiet, not really engaging much. I'd like to see more from him. Feels like he's lurking on the fringes.
Same goes for Leo.
And of course, I'd like to see @Noodle and @Mr_Thingyman at least pop in.

It wasn't the original question you asked, but the prodding you gave that disturbs me. I can't decide if it's a bad lamist or bad coaching. And I asked a different question entirely.
With all due respect...it's a terrible question on day 1. I guess you could argue that you are trying to get people to name names early, as the scum already know who they are and it's unlikely they want to give out info if they were lynched later. But it's not an easy question to answer if you're town either. I don't have enough info to lean towards anyone being town except myself.
As the second day is now half over, @Noodle and @Mr_Thingyman have 24 hours to avoid a mod kill.
I have spoken to both and they are aware of this.

Okay, I’ll engage as I was one very grumpy penguin yesterday for reasons that are irrelevant to the game (moving my daughter home from college).
I am not mafia.
I am pro-town and my victory condition requires that the town wins.
In return, I ask everyone pressing me to reciprocate.

It's a terrible question as it relates to the remaining 9 players in the game as it epitomizes a "lose-lose" situation. you either look self-serving scum or you look like you are trying to skirt the issue altogether. It was a very effective question in that it stirred the pot and (by outward appearances) started beef between players. Is the beef for show? At this point, only the participants, the mafia (if they are legit beefing and not scum) and (Silver) know for certain.
