Setup:

 

• Before the game starts, mafia must elect a townie to be the gunbearer. That player has until deadline runs out to shoot another player.
• The town discuss amongst themselves, and the gunbearer picks someone to target by posting shoot.
• If their target is mafia, the target dies and the gunbearer keeps the gun. 
• If their target is town, the gunbearer dies and the target becomes the new gunbearer.
• If the gunbearer does not shoot by deadline, they die and the mafia are given 48 hours to pick a new gunbearer. 

 

This is an open setup, all information can be accessed here: https://wiki.mafiascum.net/index.php?title=Popcorn_Mafia

Hot damn, can I have his moped? Also to be completely honest I dont think brewers is scum, I feel as if he is the least likely to be it at this point, but it may all be a physchology card he's playing

Yeah, when do we get to read Kevin's will? I'm hoping I get his tech, rest in peace

 

So here's the plan.

1,2,3 Sister Midnight

4,5,6 Velocity

7,8,9 Wolfpacks

 

First number will come from

Conagra https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/CAG/

A penny digit of 1-9 on the closing price today will decide the target

.

 

Conagra Brands, Inc. (CAG)

 

34.65+1.06 (+3.16%)

 

 

Shoot: Velocity

 

Stupid Conagra

 

 

if you get shot via the stock and you are town, you dont die, kevin will, so it does kind of stand out to me that you are getting a bit worried u might be the target...

I'm worried exactly that becuase if I do get shot i have no idea who the scum would be so I'd be in a bind

You're not in any different position than the rest of us in this one mate. We literally have nothing to go off of except people fluff posting..

 

You have a 3/8 chance (37.5%) chance to hit scum with your first shot. As far as a "shot in the dark" goes, those odds are actually pretty decent. We're in okay shape right now thanks to Kevin hitting MK with his first shot.

 

 

So here's the plan.

If it makes you feel any better I sold all of my stock in Conagra Foods and decided to stop buying Orville Redenbacher popcorn as a result..

as a result or to cause the result? lolol

 

just kidding  

Oh boy. 

Well at least we know what happens if the gun bearer shoots town then. 

I don’t really see how this is a game of skill atm, more like roulette.

That's because we aren't voting. We should be forming wagons and trying to analyze things. Instead we are all in the dark

 

On mafia scum.net the town won the games because they voted and formed wagons. We should do that if we want any chance at winning.

I’m all for that. How do other players feel, especially Velocity? Would you be willing to shoot whomever the town votes for?

the town had a 75% win rate doing it that way, so I think its probably our best option, so its not all random and there is actual reasoning for things!

So that is two votes in favor of voting and wagons.

i dont see any reason not to.  i mean its either random guessing which makes the game pointless,boring and probably a L, or at least give us a way to try to actually win.  if we just do everything random, then medved might as well just used an RNG at the start of the game to declare a winner

so with that being said:

 

vote:  SBG

 

for having the lowest post count and hiding at the bottom. 

Ok sounds like we have a plan, if we have a wagon then they will need to talk there way out of it

 

VOTE SBG to be shot

there we go.  Now we got a wagon forming, so if SBG does get shot and flips town, we can potentially find scum on his wagon! and if he is scum, he could fuck up and give a terrible defense!

I am always a proponent of everyone talking and actively contributing. With no town power roles or night actions we literally have nothing else to analyze than people posting and voting, even if the gunbearer has the final say. Personally, I think that the gunbearer should align their shot with how the town votes rather than being a loose cannon gun though. That way the game is in the hands of the entire town and not any one person. I agree with the strategy. It will only work though if we have everyone contributing though.

 

@SBG - If you are town, you need to contribute. You will receive my vote as well if you don't.

Ditto on all of the above.

 

I would like to see what people’s urgent impressions are. I am neutral on everyone except as listed below:

 

Town for sure -

Velocity for obvious reasons

Sister Midnight because I’m town

 

Probably town -

Lach because CM seems to have accidentally confirmed him.

 

Leaning town -

Brewsky because of his push for votes and band wagons

 

Leaning scum -

SBG because he’s not participating and I know he’s been online. Also, he’s always scum.

Sorry yall. Working 12 to 14 hour days and should slow down here a bit.

 

My thoughts? I dont know if SM is seriously pushing this hard for my lynch based on "I'm always scum" or if she's joking. I definitely need to read back to see what's going on but the only one alive I know is town is Velocity. Lachiton ks highly likely from his post about the roles (was that lachiton?)

 

What stands out to me recently is the tunnel vision on SM and what seems to be a quick wagon forming on me. Why would a scum have just a quick wagon unless some people were jumping on? Maybe because I'm not posting I seem like an easy target. My biggest FoS is DarkFox and TW who seeming 1) jump in to follow and 2) state a soft "if you dont post you got my vote

 

Voting doesnt kill here. It doesnt change whether you vote or FoS. Feels like testing the waters.

 

But for sake of following the voting,

 

Vote: DarkFox

 

Jumping in to vote for me and adding nothing that wasnt already said

 

 

Vote: DarkFox

 

 

dark fox isnt playing this game... lol

Do you mean Wolfpacks?

thoughts on every player so far:

 

Confirmed town

Velocity

 

 

The rest

 

Lachiton:  Most likely town.  Publicly states his role PM, and medved basically confirms it by saying he sent it as a mistake.  Only way I see him being scum is if medved accidentally sent Lachiton the town PM while Lachiton was scum, and medved publicly admitted he did so, though I see that option as very unlikely.

 

Sister Midnight:  Did not show up for the game for a while, and so far has only pointed fingers at SBG, claiming he is scum in this game cause he always is.  She made the exact same claim in the star wars game, and SBG turned town in that game.  SM was also town though in that game, though her saying SBG is scum because hes always scum when she plays just is not true.  If SGB flips town, it wouldnt shock me if SM was scum just trying to start a wagon on SBG

 

Robert242:  Has not really posted much of anything other than fluff or questions.  all thats really noteworthy is him putting some suspicion on Rafay during D1.  In other games, robert has seemed to actively scum hunt so this stands out as a bit different to me, though it could just be a byproduct of the setup, andf he does have a higher post count

 

TW:  Seems to be actively scum hunting as best as possible with this format, or at least trying to get the town engaged in discussion.  He has been one of the more active players, and is leaning town in my eyes.  

 

Wolfpacks:  Has not really participated in the discussion much, and did vote Rafay d1 right after MK did.  He said it was cause rafay used the word racist,  but that could have just been cover for him to try to form a wagon on rafay with MK.  

 

Rafay:  Oh what to say about rafay.. he actually hasnt done anything that screams scum yet this game.  However, he did deviate from the norm when MK voted for him, as normal rafay usually votes right back/accuses that person of being scum.  Rafay did claim he chose not to do so because voting is pointless, but at the same time, he normally would have accused MK of being scum and he did not do so. However a post by MK stands out to me:  

 

 

 

Exactly why i am town. I would have selected Rafay,if I am scum. Then TW would be the next gunbearer. Admit it, Rafay has a thing for TW.

 

 

Mk selected Rafay, and he turned out to be scum.  So i think its pretty fair to assume that MK did so to try to get Kevin to shoot rafay so rafay would indeed shoot TW, thus killing Kevin and Rafay in one fell swoop, and potentially also take out TW.  I think MK just told us the truth about his plans and in my eyes, it puts rafay and TW in the probably town category.

 

SBG:  Has been very quiet so far, and just voted for someone not even in the game.  Could just be a byproduct of him not really knowing whats going on.  And he has been really inactive in the last few games he played.  Though he did finally show up and post after votes were placed on him.  Could be scum warning him to show up or could just be he logged in and figured he would should say something.  

 

so here is my breakdown

 

Confirmed town

Velocity

Me (cause I know I am town lol)

 

95% Town

Lachiton

 

More likely town but still could be scum

Rafay

TW

 

50/50

Wolfpacks

Robert

SM

SBG

 

either way, SBG woke up and at least posted something, so I am gonna move on to the next least active person in my 50/50 list until they do something to contribute

 

vote:  wolfpacks  

 

 

So Velocity what are the thoughts going in your mind???

 

What will you consider when shooting? Stocks? Random? Votes?

I'll consider votes, but in the end it is my decision, so I will keep what you all say in mind, but I'm also thinking on my own theories about this, the best way for scum to get somebodoy killed is by using good logic, but it is also a good way to you know, determine who's likely to be scum, so following that up I'm doing my own thing from the shadows to figure stuff out. But yes, if I dont think I have an answer I will most likely go based on the votes

whatever you do, dont forget to shoot someone, cause if you do, you die and scum picks the next gun-bearer lol

 

speaking of which, when is the deadline? 

 

 

Deadline: October 15th, 9:00AM CN

It is ultimately your decision but that doesn't mean that you should disregard the thoughts of the rest of the town. If you have your own theories on what to do or whom to shoot you should share them with us so that we know what you're thinking and so that we can discuss it in case you pick wrong. The town needs everyone's thoughts in front of us so that we can figure this out together.
