SoulEaterQUEEN said: It really is, lol. You could ask Yoro, Joa, Itachi, or any other frequent fgers. I was a CD goer before even looking in fg / mafia play. <_<Cigarette said: Considering that this is my first ever participation in a mafia fg thread, it is indeed tempting.. But I dunnoe, I think it'd be fun to play by myself and learn everything one by one. I'm not sure what entails what, really. I'm still really confused-- especially with all this mafia jargon. But I think that's what'll make it fun. I think. I have a sneaking suspicion this isn't your first ever mafia forum game~ :D That and what would even arouse suspicion in the first place? I am innocent. Promise. |

| I take back my previous words. I no longer think this has to do with factional kills. Fo's too crafty to do the exact same thing twice in a row, and yes, I'm playing a little out-guess-the-mod when I say that the four gods/planets we're voting for have something to do with abilities based around the four seasons. |

SoulEaterQUEEN said: jiyoan said: town block? how does this works? lol it works by encouraging a mini mass claim so that they can smash their brains in to help mafias pick them off 1 by 1... Not at all what crossed my mind. Imo, the entire idea of a town block would serve little to no purpose unless by "town block" you mean "voting block." I aint about that life, and I'd much rather maintain independence with my vote. |

| You smart. You loyal. You grateful. I appreciate you. |

| Wait a second.. are we in Day 1 or Day 0? |
|
| The idea of a town block is a group of people you think are town and you can comfortably bounce ideas off of them. It isn't necessarily a voting block but it is helpful if you can agree on one lynch and as a result they can successfully achieve that lynch rather then some rando mislynch. Although maybe my understanding is different from Caesar's which is fine because I like friends as I am a loner in real life. |
| Wait, we can actually form alliances and band together and stuff? I thought you people were just rping.. |
|
| Ya want to join our town block? |

It would be a disappointment to see this "town block" degrade into a gross sort of hive mind where everyone is playing yes-men to themselves and the people in the block. What I'm getting at is a townie's decisions should stem from their own logic, not someone else's. |

Town unification is essential for town's survival, but to buddy up this early in the game = no go. Trusting anyone now is just a fool's errand |

Bee-Boy said: I will then come to the conclusion the people in my town block are not town and as a result my town block successfully achieved its goal of finding scum. It also just makes the game a bit more fun. That's the thing. If it does come down to that, will it be feasible to distinguish the bad town play from the scum in the group? How will there be a difference in their play to make that kind of judgement? That aside, if you're doing it for fun, then go for it. |

Trusting anyone now is just a fool's errand I'd have an easier time reading anyone I buddy up this earlier as I will be paying a lot more attention to them. Anyway I like the idea of a town block and this topic will just keep going around in circles so let's stop :P |

I just don't think strategically it is a terrible idea as well. |
| I distinguish bad town play from scum play the same way I would do it in someone I am not buddied up with. (Ok I swear I will drop this topic now) |
Bee-Boy said: I guess this can't be helped because I am a newbie but I read the opening post 2 times and I have no idea what these planets are for. >_> Newbie you say? |

You'll get better by playing more games, and the more you post, the better you'll get each game, too. Besides, mafia members always like active players, noobs or veterans. |

Haha... Long... Don't worry about it. These games easily go into the double digits. |

|
| I feel like all the questions on this topic will degrade to "what if town just start sheeping me" I won't let that happen, I don't plan on using a town block to simply rally votes so that literally isn't a problem and I am running out of ways of saying your concerns will not happen :/ |
Fo already said that regardless the game would be starting in the fall, I thought. Unless I misunderstood the masterpost. |

Grade A dark amber only, and give me a moment. I'm expecting the old game to come up in thread multiple times, so we might as well cut to the chase. |
| "If you look for a ghost, you'll find one." |
| If I had mafia experiance I would be a poster that takes up a large portion of the thread. But I don't so I guess only time will tell how active I am. |
Huh, they really don't count. Do you know why that is? It doesn't seem as though it would make sense for forum game posts not to count towards the post count, when people play games in clubs and their posts get counted for doing pretty much the same thing. |
| I am taking Cigarette wanting to remain independent like that as a major town tell. (although I don't know what town tells are) |
Smurphinator said: Fo already said that regardless the game would be starting in the fall, I thought. Unless I misunderstood the masterpost. The order of seasons was given, but I wouldn't assume we would have to start at the very left of the queue. to me 4 planets, 4 choices, 4 seasons, but eh what do I know, I wasn't in the original game :/ |

| Ta da! The old game: http://myanimelist.net/forum/?topicid=1255907&show=0 Now the references have a reference. |
