I usually try to follow the rule of "don't insult someone directly" - for example, I'll try to say someone's vote or logic is stupid as opposed to calling the person stupid. That's an accurate reflection of what I'm usually thinking - none of us are stupid, but we all do stupid things sometimes, and I include myself in both of those statements.

That said, I am genuinely sorry if I have ever put off anyone in any way based on my comments. I try to keep my cool, but I'm as human as anyone, and I sometimes lose track of my cool. If I do say something that hurts you, please tell me (and if you're a mod, please modkill/replace me); I would never mean to hurt anyone with my words.

This is actually just good etiquette entirely, actually. Insulting someone directly is just an off-hand form of an argumentum ad hominem, where you attack a person's character vs their argument.
 
its always interesting reading a spec chat about a game you were in,
particularly how oh so obvious the good and bad decisions are to the people who have just been told who is scum by the mod.

in the future, if anyone needs to whaaaaarrrgaabbllll because someone in-game is mean/ frustrating/ smells bad/ makes you uncomfortable/ is sorayan........ remember you can always send a PM to me and just vent out

(when im not playing in the same game, of course)

yinyin im probs gon take you up on this in the future, i got way too heated in for a couple days in that game. said a few things i regret. much ashamed.

I definitely think people taking more note of not only what side of a lynch argument people fell on, but how they argued it would go a long way. In both this and Arkham both scum team's outted themselves on a lynch, but in both situations not much came from it as it wasn't followed up on heavily.
 
And yet we all kept looking at it over and over and over and then just sailing off in some other direction. loltown

edit: STAN I got so used to your other avatar!

just take the win, Mr. "scummy votes moving to Swamped"
I never said I was some pro, pretty sure I've been fairly open about being bad at reading people based purely on post content. Just was mentioning something that has panned out in the last two games in case it helped anyone.

If only gafia town was already like this during Disney Princess, mafia may have lived longer in that game 😓

There was a day where I said on Discord that you guys would get to choose my avatar if WW grossed more than $400m. Well....uh...that day has come. You guys get to choose my avatar for the rest of the year.
Other than wholly inappropriate avatars (e.g. those against GAF rules) anything goes. Do your worst, you <insult removed because this is not Pineapple Mafia>.

I am still in favor of something highlander 2 related since I know topo is a big fan of that movie.

Hehehehehehehehe

Good on you for keeping up with your bet even though we're probably going to pick something you absolutely hate. :p
 
Are you tied of flavour arguments? Of people reading too much into role names, wasting the day on frivolous arguments, trying to force pointless claims and the difference between "The" and "That"? Join Just Mafia today, for Just Mafia.

Just Mafia will be a flavourless game, meaning that role PM's won't contain flavour names and there won't be fluff, as a change of pace from the norm, and certainly not because I'm too lazy to write flavour. It's a 20 player game, and whilst I don't want to say it's overly tame, it's not role madness or too bastard.

Players:

1) Lone_Prodigy
2) Hey_Monkey
3) isaacnukem
4)
5)
6)
7)
8)
9)
10)

Signups will run for 72 hours, and if we have more than 20 players, places will be assigned by priority. Game will start sometime shortly after signups close.

sign up, guys, come onnnnnnn
 
I've been wondering, how come dead thread access isn't automatic?

A) sometimes the thread is for multiple games
B) the outergafia mods aren't necessarily reading the games and don't know if we died
C) hey, they don't force us to do anything. Except join OG. And like, the Discord. And somehow keep signing up.

If the dead thread is shared with multiple games, we offer the option of being a replacement for those other games instead of going to the dead thread.

For games that have their own unique dead thread, like Pineapple Pizza Mafia, the only reason everyone isn't just automatically in there when they die is laziness on my part. >_>;
 
I'll sign up for Just Mafia.

It's the last game of this season right?

can someone repost the link to Pineapple Mafia. Want to read through it.

I'm glad Gafia did proud honouring my home country. Ironically the creater of Hawaiwan pizza recently died. I'm sure he died happy knowing that town got rid of the anti-pineapple force.

Quite the opposite, sir. We vanquished the pineapple zealots and protected the world from pizza pretenders.

Have we even had a Mafia game without gambits?

I do tend to play games with Blarg in them so I might have a skewed vision of Gafia though.

But surely pineapple belongs on pizza? Unless if I'm understanding you correctly, you're saying that it was a game with a large scum team and a small town faction?

(I can't believe D1 flavour sparked a theme for a gafia game lol. Which game was it again? Pokemon Mafia?)

tentative time line:

July 10 - Review thread will go up for Season 8

July 17 - Recruitment thread for Season 9 will go up in main OT section with 2 flagship games:
  • Love Boat 2 by Burbeting - 30 players
  • InFamous by melonrabbit - 23 players

Recruitment thread usually takes 2 weeks to fill up the rosters for two games, so season 9 games are expected to launch around 1 August 2017.

If you've got cool tagline for the new recruitment thread, let us know :D

Between now until August 1, there is one game recruiting: Just Mafia by CrimsonFist. Anyone with an itch to murder and solve social game puzzles without the adornments of confusing flava ...... SIGN UP \o/
