Always. One thing I've had to master is playing around people that have no fundamental understanding of how "the game of mafia" works.

Normally but I'm running into people that are so mediocre that they think being told the truth is a form of manipulation and convince players more worthless than they are to punish me for it.

I actually play not to lose because I know that at the drop of the hat, some townie is going to do something moronic that costs town the game. So while I can stall games out and force errors from scum, I'm working against a town time bomb at all points of every game I play.

This is false. Everything you submit to chat should serve your win condition, the problem is there aren't enough good players for the mediocre players to believe in this or behave in this manner.

This is also fale, see the previous. Also you can learn a lot by figuring out how to evaluate people successfully so this is doubly false.

True

Should mostly be irrelevant unless it's completely relevant.

This deserves its own topic.

Completely

Duh?

Pointless. Better to find your own win condition and hope your partner doesn't blow it for you.

Useless. I would have said 'Always' but today I learned how destructive bad townies can be.

it was never a joke. it's a fact that pranay and many other so-called epicmafia 'top' players are cheating (benefit of the doubt given, perhaps unintentionally), it's just that the nature of the game makes cheating, at least through meta with friends, impossible to avoid / prevent


Pranay's not a cheat, surely. He's so bad half the time.


maybe he only cheats half the time?

It's not ogi. I'm saying that if I want to get killed n1 or checked or neither, then me saying things like "I'll die n1" makes mafia not kill me many times. Because it puts things in their thought process


do you type "I'll die n1" or just copy it from skype chat?

I can not do 1. Every single player is bad, so there is no point to change strategy. they all just fail to play...



Like half your points were wrong anyway, but this is the one that's most troubling.

If you think every player on this website is bad, you have problems. Severe problems. Yes there are a lot of terrible players. They might be a majority. But they are not ALL players.

There are definitely very good players, and they might have bad games, but it doesn't make them any worse.

If you blame everything on other people, you're never gonna get anywhere.

2 is too easy. i just have to fos someone and he will jump me like a hungry bear.

3. My backup plans have backup plans! My plans are like the wind! Always changing all the time!

4. Everything is one huge bread. point is not to leave breadcrumbs, point is to use every single situation lol.

5. Light is always on me brah. I can not stop myself from being the center of attention and i never will. But yeah, if light is not on me, i can say whatever i want, as long as i do not survive. People reread last day you know.. there is no point , you have to worry about your tells always or else people may use it when the light is finnaly on you.


6.NEVER GIVE UP NEVER SURRENDER DIE WITH PRIDE!

7. Thats called OGI Nice to know that you use OGI to win your games.

8. Yup, its all matter of speed and stalling .

9. Nope, mistake is a mistake. There are certain bad players that do not care . BUT that doesnt mean i have not done it! Once i slipped and turned it into win. So i can, but you should look out more. Mistakes should not happen!

10. Scum slips are easy to notice. Maf can do townslips, but if its a pr slip, that i can do!.

11. I am center of attention. My partners are always safe!

12. Yah, keep your friends close and enemies closer. Thats golden rule.


So out of 12.. i have ... 10. 10 out of 12, nice. Im basically pro player, that has unique playstile that doesnt change and doesnt use OGI like some people.
