Well, that does make sense. Okay, so another newb question is, are there townie types that can operate at night, or is that just a scum thing?

[Robert2424]

Town people who can do something at night have a power role. A power role could be something that be common like a cop or tracker/watcher. Or something different but would be explained in his/her role pm. There are sometimes restrictions on roles or conditions. Would be explained in the role pm also.

Theses roles are to help the town find scum. If for some reason they don't help the town find scum, or even can hurt the town but is a townie role, those are called negative utilitys.

Scum can get additional powers at night also besides the factional night kill. This again is explained in there role pm and probably there teammates as well. These athletes usually act as buffs to the mafia to help improve there chances at winning against more powerful Townie roles. So moderators have to create a balanced, fair, and fun game at the same time.

There can also be 3rd party roles. Ranging from sk, firestarters, cults, witches. Again to help with balancing. It's harder to win as a third party roles then either scum or town.

Hope I didn't overload you. This can be looked up on the mafia scum wiki.

Not that much of an overload. It'll probably take me a few tries to get the whole thing down, but meh, for now, I'll just take in the information and, hopefully, make informed decisions to not lynch the wrong ones.

Lol. Ok. Still generate more conversation. Plus I hate being scum. And the one time I was scum here I didn't post very much. Mainly cause I don't like playing as scum very much.

But at least other stuff is going on now. People were just willing to let things fizzle out with no conversation. This is a more productive day 1 then most and we have't hade a day 1 Lynch.
They can answer for themselves.

scum.

 
So is that an admission of scummyness?

Sounds that way to me.

You and I are in the same boat. Its been a loooooong time since I played mafia...I forgot how much fun it can be.

It seems to be like one of those jacked up logic puzzles "Mary, Tyler, Moore are all sitting in a circle chair, square chair, high chair..." kind of things.

You have to see the role in a game to understand it.
At least in my experience.

[Electric Mango]

I have always been partial to the Dwight Schrute from The Office way of thinking. "It’s never the person who you most suspect. It’s also never the person you least suspect since anyone with half a brain would suspect them the most. Therefore, I know the killer to be Phyllis… The person who I most medium suspect.”

Aw come on, it was Col. Mustard in the lounge with a candlestick.

Everybody knows that.

Those are completely spam posts, but they put a smile on my face, I cannot lie.

They were spam, and logical, because they're both wrong. It was you, in the kitchen, with a rope!

Board games? are we gonna go spamming random topics? 

 

LOL

[Finster Baby]

Clue is the closest thing to mafia in the way of a board game there is.

I suspect this is the final countdown to the end of the day...and what a day it was.

[Road2Victory]

Probably the most active day 1

[Samus]

there's been a lot of spam though - including this comment

The Sun is setting on the Jakku, a desert planet and site of a "starship graveyard" of ships damaged during the final battle between the Rebel Alliance and the Empire.
