This is a Dante game. Get a little hung up on who the characters are.

There are three votes on him (or were when you did this) and you pick me? You picked me for being "second" to vote. That's just bizarre.

I think we're about the same age, but I didn't know it. I've heard of Mortal Kombat, but never partaken.

Logan Paul is that YouTube guy right? Not the brother of the actor who was in the Fast and the Furious movies.

Mahaloth -- your vote is very weak sauce. A bad vote is better than a random vote, because the reasons that make a bad vote appear bad may not be equally obvious to Town and Scum players. Watching different players debate a bad vote's merit gives us info. Watching different players ignore your random vote or rail against random votes in general isn’t nearly as helpful.
And how do you feel about Personal's vote? It might be random, it might not, we don't have a clue.
Random is the likely answer considering that Lightfoot had yet to post when Personal voted for her. He did this last game. So if he is Town we do sort of have a clue.

Or is it the wine in front of you? Don't you think that if he's scum this game he'd play it the same way he did as town last game? Regardless, I still think it's antitown, and am tempted to vote there again.

I can see how a Scum Personal might try to emulate his previous Town game --but it did get him vigged last time.

No idea. I'll have to look into them. I know of only one Velma. I suppose she may have had a last name. I think Shaggy did.

It is an odd habit, perhaps if he does it all the time it will become a null tell, like Mahaloth with his random votes. I don't think Personal has unvoted LightFoot yet so I am not sure if he intends to or which vote will count.

The trouble with tells in Mafia, whether they be Town tells or Scum tells, they become much less accurate tells once they are told.

Yes they do. I have been wondering though if there might be a pattern, you know, Personal did it once as scum, then as Town and now as scum again???

Sario didn't play in either of the games. Plus, I think being the first to vote for a bad reason is less telling than piggybacking on a bad reason. As for you over Mahaloth, I could go either way but I have to start somewhere.

Is there any reason to pressure a newbie like this? I am surprised that you haven't omgused Texcat. When I was new I was known as FlakeyJan cos I never had a clue what was going on .

Ah, okay, I think I sort of understand, maybe, perhaps.

I tend to feel a bit sorry for the newbies cos this can be a vicious game sometimes. (yes, I do exaggerate)

Do you consider this vote better than an OMGUS vote on TexCat because you think that Vanta Black is more likely to be scum, or because you value the pressure?

The latter. Which might result in the former. Or not.

Maybe it’s just me, but I feel that the votes on Vanta Black is just poor playing. At least go after someone for a reason other than they’re new and haven’t contributed to the discussion.

Heck, I don’t know if I have even contributed much to said discussion to be honest

1/Having never played this game before I do not get why SNF voted me, then unvoted me, then voted me again. It's true that I'm in detention for some unknown reason and that I have messed up by editing a post. Mia culpa. So kinda double detention. But...

2/Mad as hell and I'm not gonna take it anymore!

I get putting pressure on a newbie. If they are Scum they could well be a weaker link in the chain. Indeed we had a newbie here recently who had difficulty as Scum and eventually had to drop playing because of it. We are a friendly group, but you don't get a free ride because you are inexperienced.

That said, SNF saying his vote is now a pressure vote instead of a joke vote is strange because I do not think most newbies would understand the difference.

Thank you for speaking directly to me. You're the first one other than Sorio and the mod in 130 posts to do so. And, yes, you know better. You admitted it yourself.

I guess I don't mind the votes. I don't even mind the reasons given for the votes. They're data to be analyzed. That they're on a new player I think may say something about the voter. Not sure what yet. How the new player handles the votes is also noteworthy. I think Vanta has reacted well so far to someone wanting to fake kill them.

Don't worry too much about doing wrong in Mafia. After you play this game for a while you will find that doing wrong is pretty much par for the course. No matter how much you screw it up, I promise we've all done worse.

It just makes those few times you do it right all the more sweet.
