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!!!

i havent taken the time to read into moris content because now theres more of it but i feel like youre assuming that im mafia, but also that every time i get town read its like you in fm 16 and that it cant be trusted

idk i mean you cant assume that whatever happens in someones scum game is to automatically happen in their town games too, in fact if you look at older games the same exact thing that happened with reads on me and i feel like that could be alignment indicative

idk i got a good vibe from all the just now mori content so let me see what i think after a more thorough read

Dorzel says

I got a theory that i kinda just wanna toss out here firstly,
Since i am utterly hopeless at this and since mafia know each other i have a feeling i am gonna get targeted with buddys/tunnels. Anyways though i think the fact people who don't know me very well are saying i am scummy is good scumhunting. I don't know why i am so scummy, maybe because i am laid back but hey whatever people say goes i guess.


i townread this

i feel accomplished i did something guys


I was going to quote the same thing and then saw you quoted it already. I think Dorzel is kinda towny, I don't know if he can fake this as mafia.

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.

Shrub says

I think some of the ISP players should at least talk once in this game. Mori did this last time too..


I'm sorry I can only talk during the night? lol


and i dont think a mafia would make this kind of joke

yoyo200900 says

Dorzel + Shrub + imsohappy + lonerism are mafia


pro rng 10/10 very pro

I don't even know where you get your reads from because I haven't even seen lonerism speak yet




Good reaction imo. If Yoyo is mafia, imsohappy is probably town, I think.

yoyo200900 says

Nah Sonia, I think you're town, I don't want people to start fossing you, I want people to stop fossing me. If they see that the post that they're using to attack me is similar to yours they they might stop trying to use it.


Quite honestly, this looks like Yoyo is appealing and trying to pocket Sonia.

xSoniaNeverMindx says

Let me say this clearly so you will understand.

If you want to defend yourself and you're town it shouldn't be a problem for you to go and do every single one of those lines I posted because it only helps


I TR this post. Because I feel like she's trying to make Yoyo understand her scumread on him, and maybe change her mind by towntelling. I don't think this is something mafia would do. If Yoyo is her partner, it makes no sense to bus and have this sort of interaction. If Sonia is mafia but Yoyo is town, then it makes no sense for her to reach this conciliatory posture - She would push on Yoyo and that's that. Therefore, I feel Sonia is towny from this interaction.

After doing some rereading I don't want lonerism anymore lol. They had a townie thing to say too.

Shrub says

I actually think yoyo mightn't be Mafia. But I seeing as I'm pretty sure 2 of his reads are wrong it's hard. The fact that he foses DORZEL who has done absolutely nothing to alignment tell at all, and then me who has claimed pr and I don't think I've done anything that doesn't have town motive..?


Sometimes, not doing anything alignment-indicative is enough reason to scumread someone. Because after a certain amount of content, you expect some amount of substance. But I agree his reads don't make much sense.

Gerry says

Um. Last game Shrub claimed PR with NO votes on him in the first few pages of the day? A few of you here should know he'd do something dumb like that. So, again. What's another reason as to why you are voting Shrub?


Don't you think he would've learned after last game? I don't particularly scumread Shrub, but I also don't think this is a reason to believe his PR claim or that he's town whatsoever.

Gerry says

I take back everything I said. Town is stupid from what I can tell. Unless it's mafia just doing all the dumb things so far. Is there an actual reason for voting any of these people so far? Because as of right now I see just stupid reasons. We are already 20 pages in, so all the joke foses should have stopped by now.


Alright, he seems kinda annoyed. I don't see mafia saying this, but I don't know, since I've never played forum mafia with him. I feel like mafia would take advantage of stupid votes, not call town out on them.
