[Official] NBC Mafia Town Win MVP=trinicardinal

[everywhere116]

was fun to have all this tnc crew you guys seem like a cool clan!

Yeah it is pretty cool in TNC.

We play mafia in our forum. Most of the time we have around 15 per game. It is quite interesting because you get to know each others play style pretty well.

I think that helped me here. I was convinced BG was town(he still got lynched ) and it is why I was so sure MoB was lying.

Hmmmm, mafia clan war, anyone? (I have no idea how that would work).

Our clan mafia games have been known to last 2 weeks and still generate 60+ pages of text. It's not uncommon to check in after 12 hour and find 8 pages of reading.

Like the good ol' days.

yes but even better with pcm claiming igor and me counter-claiming inventor; then we let eventually the cop investigate pcm...
but from your perspective trini; how sure were you of the dazza leitz and chap claims on day 4? cause the only way your list could've been unacuarte was that one of these 3 were scum and fakeclaimed.

Agreed - As to how sure I was... I was pretty sure about dazza and Leitz... almost as sure about chap. I did recognise the fact that they could have been fakeclaims and playing really well as town. I figured of the 3 the most likely fakeclaim was chap and that was mostly linked to the fact that he didn't want to give his character name.

On the other hand PCM/SG7 and Epi had been tripping my scumdar for a while and to a lesser extent MoB and you. My list felt right when I did it up. I did acknowledge the uncertainty by adding the part about if the claims we had gotten were true.

MoB's counter claim made me absolutely certain about PCM and you and ofc it was absolutely obvious that he was scum as well. Epi was the one that I wasn't sure about - your counter claim almost worked there but the backup doctor claim just meant that we were sure the next day after Rodion came up with his plan.

[dazza2008]

@ dazza - I was wondering how come you were so convinced when so many others were still skeptical - I was glad you were though.

I am not really sure. I just had the feeling you were town from very early in the game.

The way MoB reacted when he countered looked very fake to me too. I think he over did the acting there

That is again where I think the games we play in the clan helped me here. I could see he was lying pretty easily.

I will say that a lot of posting by MoB probably did him no favors. When you're lying, try to change as little from normal behavior as possible. Mob seemed to be very talkative and defensive when he came out with the counterclaim.

Indeed. One post in particular stuck out. All it said was "Wait, hold on!" or something to that effect. That's just fake. Remember that you can't act over the internet, but you can keep a poker face. There's no need to fake emotion (and you really can't anyway), just say what you're going to say. If it's plain as day and says what you mean, you should be fine.

Hope that helps.

Rodion, I believe you wanted to explain why you fakeclaimed Town Bomb before.

Did I want?

The primary reason is I wanted to be alive around the massclaim/endgame period so I could help find scum, so with the bomb claim I thought I could scare people into not lynching me (or into forcing a claim out of the poor bastard that would be scheduled to hammer me and possibly identify a fake, thus outright lynching him instead). Sucks that it didn't work, but enter the secondary reason: getting more discussion in the table so we could clear/implicate more players before N2 arrived. For instance, I think Chap volunteering for the hammer earned him major town cred, which proved to be useful later on (it sucks that mafia got to know Strike was a power role, but he had it coming for pushing my bandwagon! ).

also at some point you voted medefe and didn't let go (for little activity..), if someone else had followed you we had our secret "jellybean" operation to speedlych and it would've been a victory.

Can you tell us more about this operation? Had you previously established a daily time for you all to be online in order to make that happen?

You had your bandwagon coming for the stupid metagame comment.

Other than that. My power role was a rather weak one so I was more than ok to get taken out.

we all thought you were watcher and feared you, so we went for you; but somehow thought it was weird cause you knew we always thought zero was a watcher and you played on that revealing your character. we would've NK trini otherwise that night if we knew you were just mason.

by the way, medefe and strike, do you mind revealing some night conversations you 2 had? who were your biggest suspects?

[Rodion]

I feel we should have quicktopics for mafia (and masons) to use throughout the game. They are safe to use as long as you don't leak the link and they provide an interesting read after the game is over.

yes, my feeling was that chap was the only one that could be replaced on your list with epi so I played on that. unfortunately rodion forced epi to protect him; getting myself lynched would've made you guys trust epi and distrust chap......


guys, when is the next official game? can we get notifications?

[safariguy5]

I've modded the last two official games, if someone wants to submit a setup for approval as a possible Official game to either me or Sully, that would be great.

[everywhere116]

The only suggestion I will give is not to sticky it. It might just be me, but my eyes filter out stickied threads on almost every forum I've ever been in. Might have contributed to the inactivity.

[pancakemix]

Personal opinion: Make the submission/selection process more visible. Like have a thread where you announce that submissions are open and then (possibly) announce the selected mod and theme.

I don't think stickying hurt activity at all. I felt it was fairly active, at least during the time I was in it.

[shieldgenerator7]

yeah I don't mind the stick yas long as I know the sticky is there

[shieldgenerator7]

but yeah I tend to ignore stickies in other threads, such as OT, which never used to have stickies, nr did GD, so I don't pay attention to those stickies very much
