Soup and Bankz are back? The Rona is really brining everyone together. It's a little bit weird seeing Soup come in and talk about needing to be reminded of roles, refresh his memory, vote vs. no vote, etc. Outside of the one-day game we had this weekend, it's been just as long since any of us have played TMBSL mafia. IIRC, during the Mafia games in 4.0 he was very active and very quick to start digging. This makes me think he likely had previous Mafia experience and forgetting all of that and changing your tendency completely strikes me as odd.

@bkisok can you update the thread title to include that it's open, when day 1 ends, etc?

Agree that it was a weird comment. As Beanie Siegel said, "I got my radar up"

I’d say no vote is the way to go. Not sure what the best strategy is yet but I can assure that putting our sights on a town member wouldn’t be the best idea for day 1

couple thought.
Agree that Skrouses initial comments wre a bit strange. Almost seems like he had it thought up ahead of time in preparation for someone accusing him. When Ank randomly at the start of last game I just thought to ignore it since i knew I wasnt mafia.. Then again, someone coming at you right out of the gate can create that.
Soup not knowing how the game is played is funny and odd considering how much he was involved with Mafia last time around.
I am always suspsicious of anyone that makes a simple, short and obvious statement that someone else already mentioned. To me thats a potential mafia person just trying to "be active and fit in"

Not sure what the best strategy is yet but I can assure that putting our sights on a town member wouldn’t be the best idea for day 1 It's definitely bad in the short term to kill a town member but we have to consider the long game. Townies are going to die, no doubt. But if the logic is "the odds are higher we hit town than mafia", the same logic is going to apply for day 2 and maybe day 3 as well. If we follow that logic, then the only details we're potentially getting are from a possible sheriff and then some other random occurrence (i.e. mafia trying to hit a veteran that we also don't know exists).

I'd say the only thing you "added", was that you faced a similar accusation from Ank last game.

Haven't seen any of them on yet today... Fortunately sim is running soon so hopefully that pulls in at least Delap and Newguy.

I'd say the only thing you "added", was that you faced a similar accusation from Ank last game. that is a fair thing to point out. I guess in my mind the difference is when there is a lack of detail and its just a single sentence. Fecta post just above mine is the perfect example.. agreed with something that many others already said, only posted 1 single sentence and provided no additional thought or detail. In my mind, there is no point to post that unless you just want to show activity.

The spin team is out I see. No where did I say I didn’t know how to play the game. It’s been like 3 years since I played. I definitely needed to read the rules again.
Trying to muddy the water with spins like that make me very suspicious of Tim and majic though. Plus Ank, I’m always suspicious of his ass.
“Can we not?”

Didn’t we used to everyone vote for one person so that everyone had one vote on day 1? Were y’all for or against that strategy?

IMO putting in a plan like that seems a bit too structured and means even less will be given away. The idea of all of us agreeing on who each person is going to vote for shares nothing. If everyone knows they're only going to receive one vote, there's no risk in who you do or don't vote for.

Seemed like in the past when we did someone always showed their ass in the end by switching their vote.

If someone isn't participating at all, it seems like a 99% chance they're town as other mafia members would be PMing them and pressuring the hell out of them to do something.

But I would like to point out that it backfired because some townie went rogue (pretty sure it was Heebs) and not because it was a bad plan.

I don't think there's any way we can get 12 people to agree to follow a plan through to the end of the day, especially if 3-4 are inactive so far. Also, I still don't see the benefit for the same reason I mentioned earlier.

I'm down for the everyone votes for 1 person strategy, seems pretty straight forward. But if we have someone MIA, then we'll be a vote off, guess we would then vote for the MIA person?

I guess silver lining is you get rid of someone inactive. I think I’d rather go no vote so we don’t lose anyone though.

if everyone votes for one person then the mafia easily disguises a vote and then one likely town member is gone...this makes no sense to me
