Bay 12 Games Forum

There are many ways the Commander and the Bodyguard can play.

There's no reason to randomize the turn order, and I'm not just saying that because I'm first up.

I would've agree with the whole mafia is a logical game and all if this was a normal mafia game with no shenanigans involve. But this isn't that type of game and when you think about it Mafia is all emotional than logical. We're always gambling our moves. Like, who should I trust? Who should I protect? Who should I kill? What we do has reward and consequences. Like what I'm doing right now is risky. I won't be doing any townread as it doesn't mean anything to me. Will it make me look scum? Yeah, but if you think I'm scum then you're emotionally thinking rather than logically. Hence unravelling the facade that Mafia is all my rational thinking.

As I said I'm going to put all my trust on IcyTea31. As it's the most townie thing to do. Trust is important to me.

I thought it was either Blue and Web or NQT and Caz until NQT switched their vote onto Web.

I talk with Leafsnail every day so I can just ask him.

@Blue:
While I think your role was extremely unfair and eased most psychological pressure off of you (I kept wondering why I didn't see the final scum freaking out because I absolutely would have in the same situation) from being really "solo scum with 7 townies left", there are two points I saw that made me not want to doubt you.

1. After I gave my end of Day 2 analysis you agreed with my NQT and FoU scum reads, but didn't think Reverie was scum. This is an deceiving move because I had placed you as the only other scummy player left which means you were implicating yourself. It's a well played move as scum.
2. During D2 you asked 4mask in dead chat if I was confirmed town to him and also what my role was. Both of these questions are pointless from scum!Blue's perspective and I consider meaningless actions to be illogical. Another good play as scum, one I wouldn't even be able to fall for until I was dead.

Pssst, Toony, wanna be Mafia with me next game?

You chose 4mask over me last time.

Lots of people it’d be fun to wolf with. I’m still waiting to see the legendary Vector wolf game first hand.

Have a sneak peak in The One I Won't Kill.

But I stopped feeling bad when I got this:

They were not still alive.

It's why I enjoyed MVM2 so much even though I lost right at the end, because the circumstances of my demise was so entertainingly ridiculous.

Also eeeeeee this makes me feel so proud of running that game.

You should be, that's my favorite game so far for this 2020 run besides Vengeful 13. I've enjoyed certain days of other games (end of D2 of Super10 was amazing), but overall it's those two.

However we feel about how balanced the game was or how well any player played, I think we can probably all agree that this was objectively the funniest thing to happen in the entire game:

Replacement. I just came back and honestly I don't have the time to look through 50 pages of post. Rather than blunder town and I am just going opt out.

Or Secret voting Fallacy right after they were daykilled?
