When did this site stop playing EM?

almost 9 years

It seems like the game has been lost.. New players assert their ways of playing without actually playing by logic. They go with their gut, they don't reread, they don't think critically about what implications logically follow from certain comments or votes or anything.

But then they refuse to be taught or learn from their mistakes!!? They mishammer and leave right after the game ends. They vote as clear immediately in a 3 way and refuse to entertain any comments. I'm not a stickler for perfect fundamental EpicMafia, and I don't really care about winning or losing, but games aren't fun when half of the town "wasn't paying attention," "this game has gone on tooo looong," "im lazy," "this cop said I was inno so I'm going with him."

Really sucks. I'm not even any good at this game but recently its just worse and worse. I love hearing the logic that I missed, I love being corrected - it makes me a better player! But I am noticing that more and more, what this game is about is just being ignored.

Incorrect; i can explain it to you, but I can't understand it for you...

In this game, yellowcat agrees with me that people dont play well anymore.. then he confirms himself as mafia, then he suis begging "I REALLY HAVE TO GO THIS ISNT GRS I SWEAR."
He's in another game asap.
The kicker is the 3 times that i have to explain to the cop that guiltied yellowcat, that the fact that yellowcat is voting his maf partner who inno'd him confirms yellowcat is mafia. finally, after 5 minutes in the postgame, he acknowledges that the logic is sound.

the players i'm describing do not understand the "fypov" or "fmpov" or "fhpov." they can't understand why it is necessary to think about what other person's perspective is in terms of clear and confirmed, to utilize critical thinking to provide PROOF rather than opinion.

I've been trolled, many times, on this site and others. The problem is that the trolls and the players I'm describing are slowly becoming indistinguishable.

This game is more casual now, you're right. Play goldhearts babe.

To clarify, there's nothing wrong with the game being casualised. Still the more competetive scene should be preserved for players who still enjoy "tryharding".

I have never tried competitive, obviously I should... I always considered myself a casual player!

Clearly just a semantic issue, I would argue the word casual is here being redefined entirely!

"tryharding" smh. I guess "trying hard" is "tryharding"?
