Sample Role PM:

Welcome to Forum Mafia 17, Matt.

Your role is Vanilla Townie, sided with the town.

Your only power in this game is your voice and your vote. Good luck.

You win when all threats to the town are eliminated.


Scumhunt your heart this game out if you're town or towntell like none other if you're not, because the player that Jeff and I feel plays the best game will receive a 20 token prize!!!

Arcbell says

I'm actually considering being a bully and going through and modhiding all of Shrub's content (with the negs I'm allowed to use) and I honestly don't think anyone would be too upset about that and it'd make me feel a whole lot better.

I'll keep in the spirit of the game though and not do that.


You see it's things like this that make me SCUMREAD you. This is absolutely nothing but filler and all you are doing is insulting my reads. And yet apparently you think I'm Mafia so why do you care about my reads. You are consistently contradicting yourself.

lol shrub someone said that was a possibility back in like forum mafia 14 and ive been paranoid about it ever since
deletedover 8 years
lol at this point i feel like giving up on my scum read on minecraft just so when she flips scum at endgame i can have a good laugh when everyones like "waaaaat?"

although sadly ive been able to see the town flip for a while now

still concerned from earlier content

sIGH

2 things (i was in game so i couldnt post this earlier):
i disagree with gerry and therefore think that izzys line about being glad about not rolling scum felt genuine

also mine, you cant have too many trs especially if you only provide 5 lol. theres a LOT of town out there, theoretically at least 12 but also up to 17 (that one possibility where host makes us all town and battle it out to see who the 2 towniest players are)


That idea would be amazing.

Arcbell says

sigh ... mori actually gave some good reads

it is because she is mafia and knows the mafia, though

vote Mori

i feel bad doing this


Why do you "feel bad" doing this? If you scumread me you scumread me.


Because I was basically scumreading u for having good reads and if i were wrong it'd be p bad

who here sr's me? (i wanna try appeal) i wanna try doing something instead of just rereading or saying useless stuff


Ok this is absolutely nothing but a towntell and I'm literally clearing minecraft for this. She would not be able to fake a line like this. Mine if you want to help try and find Mafia ;)

I can understand why people SCUMREAD yoyo but I also disagree with it, can we pls lynch Arcbell like seriously I don't know why anyone sees this guy as town look at my post page 51/2 I think I proved him as Mafia like cmon guys get firewise
Im frustrated no one agrees with me since it seems to obvious

it's hard to tell if a bad read is maf just making sht up or a townie being genuinely dumb

(kinda hypocritical for me to say this lel)


that is basically me in a nutshell

nobody really rubbed me in the wrong way since i basically like nearly everything that has been said but i'll place a leaning maf on yoyo

ehelpful or useful.

Yoyo: his reads seems to just be so goddam bad they can't be those of a Mafia with information and therefore he is town with no info.

Overall scum/possible scum in the people I can read.
In order from least scum to most scum

Alright so overall
Mori: very strong townread, her content has been consistently good and reasonable. She is definately actively scum hunting and trying to find Mafia which I townread. It would take very good Mafia play to pull this of.
Minecraftfangirl: I think she is town as this seems like her town game, the only way you can read minecraft as an alignment is meta as she consistently scum tells - at least to me - as both alignments.
Sonia: I think they are town (whoa reads switch) there willingness to prove they are town and solid towny answers to my questioning has led to me TOWNREADING them. I also like the confidence in which they voted me after my towny but forced line. They definately scumtold to begin with but have been getting consistently better since then.

UltraAug: I just townread them. I can't remember what it was exactly but there was something that made me townread them pretty strongly.

Gerry: I don't understand what he is doing or where his reads are coming from at all. He doesn't seem to have logical reasoning - e.g. Fosing simply because someone FOS his townread and I don't think he is trying very hard to make town win. For now he is null but we will see as the game continues - would not be surprised if he is town or Mafia.

DORZEL: null. He is playing as he plays every single game - not participating - towntelling but in a forced laid back not helping town way. He has third party told twice. Possible fool/sk/survivor or whatever.

Arcbell: Mafia see page 51?

Izzy: what they do is scummy what they say is towny. Hard to read,

N1ed: some big scum tells but also some big towntells. Hard to call it either way.

Lonerism seems to be trying to find Mafia actively.

Imsohappy: probably Mafia tbh. They haven't towntlold at all and haven't helped town at all and there reads are not really

maybe start by looking at the people who you haven't townread and see if they've said anything that rubs you the wrong way
