Is it common for mafia to throw other mafia under the bus i.e. Kpaca voting Yanni all game?

yes.

if your scum buddies are acting scummy, bus them.

Posted: **Mon Jan 28, 2013 8:28 am**

I never do it then one game threw them both under!

murphy what basic was it where we were both scum buddies?

Hmm... can't remember

I could go look but I'm lazy

@Checkbox: I'm actually fairly impressed with your play; the one unforgivable sin of the n00b is being such a chaotic asshat that it's impossible for others to tell what you're trying to do, which obscures their ability to hunt scum. You avoided this, and your posts were topical, interesting, and didn't stonewall, instead providing concise analysis into the player you were talking to, especially Phantom (which he then completely fucked by being a retard).

I support unilateral vigging.

This is kpaca as I know him

He gets to be vig a lot

Posted: **Tue Jan 29, 2013 2:24 am**

vig all day

I love it when Manders goes on a rampage.

Cop that gives you flavor from when you were cop'd in a basic?#seemslegit

Fact that no one claimed to be roleblocked/Cop'd Night 1#Doublelegit

I agree with her I mean we shouldn't be telling new players to fuck themselves, might turn them off to the game

Posted: **Tue Jan 29, 2013 3:38 pm**

and there's a difference between being abrasive and playing agressively than outright beign a douche

Posted: **Tue Jan 29, 2013 5:20 pm**

cf Kpaca's recent post.

Yall might want to set up some kind of standard.

Posted: **Tue Jan 29, 2013 5:38 pm**

Kpaca is playing like a real thug

Posted: **Tue Jan 29, 2013 6:26 pm**

town shouldn't be that aggressive

Posted: **Tue Jan 29, 2013 7:35 pm**

If I wasn't dead that would be a significant incentive for me to vote for him because all this level of crudeness detracts from a good productive day spent investigating instead of throwing insults around, so it makes for scum or weak own, both things one can live without

Posted: **Tue Jan 29, 2013 7:46 pm**

That's pretty much what I was saying - him being that aggressive only spells votes for him (assuming town play "correctly")

Posted: **Tue Jan 29, 2013 7:51 pm**

I can see the logic. He plays like a douche, gets lynched, and town looks at who they've caught and goes "Oh, the scum we've caught so far have been super-aggressive, let's target aggression!" while

just plays the nice-guy card and quietly lurkills everyone.

Posted: **Tue Jan 29, 2013 8:19 pm**

Probably a fair point

Posted: **Tue Jan 29, 2013 8:20 pm**

And PhantomS is just looking the other way because "oh well, that's just kpaca"

I might be wrong but usually that's not a good trade. you only throw other scum under the bus/get thrown under the bus in order to clear another buddy immediately in danger (or yourself)

Posted: **Tue Jan 29, 2013 10:23 pm**

You have obviously never seen vanilla townie Captain Murphy

Posted: **Tue Jan 29, 2013 10:24 pm**

Xim has lurked a bit too much, does he have like 3 or 4 posts in the entire game? I'm actually a bit frustrated at it.

I honestly think phantom is going to fuck this game up a bit. He already has to an extent.

The largest of extents

Posted: **Tue Jan 29, 2013 10:59 pm**

I was so convinced they were playing tag team. In retrospect it was dumb to think that, it would be too obvious

Posted: **Tue Jan 29, 2013 11:08 pm**

Still trying to figure out why I was nightkilled, like how I made myself a target

Posted: **Tue Jan 29, 2013 11:45 pm**

It was likely random imo

Posted: **Wed Jan 30, 2013 1:14 am**

Kill someone insignificant so that the town gets no real help with information from the kill

Posted: **Wed Jan 30, 2013 3:16 am**

PhantomS is riding kpaca's dick so goddamn hard right now

"I'd rather kill Phantasmo.
I don't think there's any chance of lynching phantamo ever, so we need to get him sooner or later. I like roleblocking manders though."-Ximbad

"I mean why would we kill the guy doing everything? The more bad players dead the more sense it makes I'm alive"-KP

Posted: **Wed Jan 30, 2013 5:10 am**

Also, fuck everybody telling me to chill. I don't curse when I'm actually mad, I curse when people are being great card analyst.
You misunderstand. You can curse til the fucking cows come home and I won't bat an eyelash. But I do not agree with attacking others on what is a personal level, and I believe telling someone "fuck you" constitutes as this. Regardless, this can be discussed when the game is over.

And no one said you should be going around claiming to be the vig to get our input. I'm saying, take into account what the other players have said and decipher where would be the best shot. Also, it's probably best to NOT vig someone who hasn't claimed. When you do that...you end up killing a poorly playing Town power role more often than not.
We are going to disagree on this.

I'm surprised no one pointed out the smoldering Cop's Corpse when he said this.

Posted: **Wed Jan 30, 2013 6:32 am**

Quick question, why is it 5 to lynch with 7 alive?

Posted: **Wed Jan 30, 2013 6:36 am**

7/2= 3.5 round up to 4.0 then +1 for majority.

Is my math wrong? It could be I'm really tired.

Posted: **Wed Jan 30, 2013 6:38 am**

No, just curious mostly.

Posted: **Wed Jan 30, 2013 1:24 pm**

No need to plus 1 for majority... Should just be 4, as that is a majority

Posted: **Wed Jan 30, 2013 3:13 pm**

Its his game he decides the vote threshold

Posted: **Wed Jan 30, 2013 4:18 pm**

I mean, obviously. But majority means something, I was pointing out that 4 is a majority in 7 people

Posted: **Wed Jan 30, 2013 4:19 pm**

I'm sure there are mafia conventions when it comes to these things, I just disagree that it should take 5 to lynch

Posted: **Wed Jan 30, 2013 7:07 pm**

The tradition is five to lynch. iirc all of the games I've played in where 7 people are left it's been five to lynch. Six is four, five is three, four is three, three is two.

it's too prevent a slim majority from voting bloc and running the game and to stop confusing between seven people alive and six people alive (gets annoying to require the same number of votes with the exception of low numbers of people alive)
