DAY 1 Viva Loose Vegas - Mafia Game

[SoN!c]

5. Watch this video and listen to Apu:

[*Pixar*]

EW still has his vote on me despite it being a joke vote over lack of responding. And he threw his arms up at people considering him skilled despite being our site's representative at that mafia thing. Interesting.

I kinda never unvoted because I dont know if Sonic's pruding of me comes from a scummy point of view or from interest

Calling things interesting or weird certainly ticks my paranoia radar though

Pruding? Lol

Probing..


Being prude i'll unvote EW in a very prudish way and start probing elsewhere..

Only Strike, Homer and JFM sound town to me at this point. And it's always the silent ones..

My top 5 atm :

Traf for being silent and only posting something when called out
Devante for vegas odds
EW not pinging back on the scum radar but it could be a glitch in the radar..
Charle ticking all boxes on a scum Charle version sofar
Pixar for acting puzzled

Jokes on you, I'm always puzzled

[SoN!c]

Jokes on you, I'm always puzzled

That is why your on place 5, only 3 or 4 can be scum

13 players needs 7 to lynch , or does it ?
The 6 at the table are probably town.
cop . doctor , jailor
vigilante
3 scum
That's my opinion for the set-up to the game.
If I am right then the 6 at the table should be careful about bluffing.

[SoN!c]

The mod mentions just 1 flavor element in the set-up: the boiler room of a legit resort..

So its not flavor but a key element.

A legit resort would never organise a poker game in its boiler room..

That is why i think mafia is to be found at the poker table.

I actually think that at leasst one Scum is at the table. but ofc I have nothing to back that up. But yeah town power roles might be at the table as well.

[homer_jay]

there are two options for the table.

if it is a situation where it's a shady game, then maybe certain roles were selected for the table, and those randomly assigned those roles are there.. which would likely be a mix of scum and certain power roles (vigilante type, so not scum, but not a "by the book" character either)

or the table spots are randomly assigned, so it'll be a mix of scum, power roles, vanilla townies

i don't think we have any indications yet which way it goes

I believe the shady condition of the game lies on the 6 players at the table and what they can do to themselves. Therefore , in my opinion , scum and power are not at the table.

[strike wolf]

I feel like at the moment, were starting to play the mod more than the game with all the hypotheses surrounding the table and if scum are at the table or not. I dont have any scum feelings about anyone yet. I will say that I lean towards Son!c and Homer being town at the moment.

[Ragian]

That's what always happens at the beginning of games. It's difficult who does it because they honestly think it has value just now and who's just trying to appear active and pollute the thread.

Ragian and Strike , as contributers to the conversation , what turns you against it now. I believe neither of you are at the table.

so you're saying you think the poker game consists of 6 players independent of the town/mafia dynamic?

What turns us against what?

[Charle]

Maybe I am missing something. There are 6 players at the table, obviously it can be a mix of mafia and town, but surely they cannot be all mafia. Like Sonic mentioned, in a boiler room the chances are good that there are mafia present as well.

My point is, does it really matter, or will we learn something if we know who are at the table? Unless the players at the table have some special roles but then again, we will not know if they are scum or town.

I must say, I cannot see any proof of scum from anybody yet.

[SoN!c]

The possibility that even mafia don't know the identity of the other scums (i think 2 at least) is not out of the ballpark here.

The mod mentioned a few times that "Privacy and security of guests" will be of some importance, and "same t-shirts and sunglasses for all" so one would "not recognize the others" was mentioned also.

If so mafia will be signaling / hinting to the other scummies they are same side aligned. That is why this could be a different game. And why every "signal flare" has it's importance.

EW fired off a big red marine signal flare the way i saw it.. his "signal abnormalities" tended to be way larger inhere then in other games. Ofcourse EW will deny it.

But EW's flare was seen at Lake Mead.

So far i did not see anybody flaring back.

[Extreme Ways]

Either I deny it and you push me for it, or I dont deny it and you push me for not denying it.

How are you ever going to find me town, Sonic?

[Extreme Ways]

Also correct me if I'm wrong but in one post, it gets highlighted that I'm still voting Rag and I respond that it's a d1 vote and just a single vote - whatever.

In another post, Sonic says I am getting too invested over a single vote.

Rag/Sonic, what do you make of your ideas surrounding this?

unvote

[SoN!c]

That you are diverting the subject of mafia needing "to flare" the other mafia

[Extreme Ways]

oh now I know what you meant with flare.

tbh I forgot my role other than that im town, it's in my inbox somewhere
