New Year, New Section? Mafia '26 Phase 2 (Game Thread)

[R-Troop]

I have a hard time reading who's scum right now.

 

[Barry Poppins]

This is a great setup line if you are mafia though..

Yeah cuz I'm just lookin to set up Jeff, the strongest player in the game if I'm scum

 

[Brett]

Cuz it don't really matter lol, I always no-sell it when he votes me lmao. He has done this all the time when he's town, so keep that in mind that he could theoretically going to the well to seem town.

I like the reasoning, I also found it interesting that he decided to soft clear me fairly early. (Sure there's a term for Scum cozying up to a town member early), that could be it, but I am definitely not set on that in the slightest.

That's day 1 typical shit. Take my advice, don't try and look to see who's scum, try to look and see who you feel is townie.

I've used pronouns of he/him for over a year now.

Yikes. My bad. Noted

Pocketing.

We've got plenty of time. I approach it by trying to clear some town first before outright assuming anyone is anything just yet.

Thats not what it would setup. It would actually setup a theory, that Jean reads are based off pattern than logic. I'd also say the strongest player based on game activity in the community, is actually Lethal by quite a large margin too.

None of this is true, but alright. You do you.

What does this mean?

 

[Just Juice]

How can an opinion on what you are doing. Not be true? Also if you you dont think its debatable that Lethal isn't the strongest player on WS now, based on game activity.....

 

[Just Juice]

What does this mean?

I'd argue you are the strongest player at the table. Based on games elsewhere.

As for my opinion on the setup. If you say "Person A always says this" its a great shield to protect yourself behind, if you are in fact Mafia in this game.

Well for one, I'm not reading Jeff based on a pattern, just stating a fact that he does this all the time. Secondly, just because Lethal is active elsewhere doesn't mean he's the strongest player on WS. Unless his meta of railroading himself into myopic pushes has changed. Jeff is still by far the more intellectual and keen player at sniffing shit out.

Sup everyone. Had the lil one to tend too. She teething so it's first time I got on and she's finally asleep. How we doing

 

[Lethal]

I think Brett is leaning too much into the buddying of Jean here. If I get a chance over the weekend I’ll read that last game for context.
