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'd vote lonerism on the sole reason they fos izzy which is now my biggest townread. But, I stil think groundhogday is the mafia here. But, if people will vote lonerism, I'll flip


why do you think that i am mafia


More gut than anything tbh. ngl. I just feel you're playing your maf game over your scum game. Then again you are always very scummy to me so idk.

It's easy to play as Mafia in forum Mafia IMO. Like since you have so much time I think it would be really easy to fake towntells.

I think it's inherently Maf sided because you don't know the roles and it's much more difficult to read motive when everyone thinks there posts through so much more to prevent that.

Fun trying to read with no information though.

izzy says

jeez if it's this difficult to play as town how the hell does one play as maf. do you just like screw with everyone or.....??????


Idk why but I hard tr this line. I'm trying not to though, since I've been burned by townreading singular lines in forum maf in the past. But, izzy is safely in the town zone for now atleast. (in case anyone wanted me to explain my tr. which no one did i think l0l)

I want to know what i'm doing that's weird because this is really peaking my interest I don't think i'm doing anything that seems forced or weird unless you think me not having a ate fit day 1 isn't weird


I found it weird that you omgus me when by your own logic I was town. That was weird.

if that's the case then everyone in this game is probably trying to pocket me bc that makes complete sense for people to do that :')

ok now i'm seriously going to dance class bye

Arcbell says

Gerry would you really vote someone for fosing your townread?


ya. cause to me they look really townie. But, this is just day 1 so I don't have too much to go off right now. I'm gonna play a more cautious approach this game because I've townread interactions day 1 before in forum maf and I have been burned by it. Thus, why I'm waiting to give more reads. It's better to give reads in forum maf after you see a lynches flip imo.


Wouldn't it be better to give reads so there's more of a chance the lynch flips Mafia and then change your reads based on the flip?

Gerry always plays like this


This is actually wrong. I'm usually more active and I haven't been. How am I playing that gives off the same vibes?

Gerry always plays like this and Izzy just seems newb which isn't alignment telling.

I'm still waiting for elaboration on everyone's thirdaug fos.


Opinion on Arcbells alignment?

izzy says

1. what does pocket mean
2. i can't make anyone happy here wow, i don't know how else to play so i'll just shut up and go to dance class and maybe something will happen between now and when i get back


Pocket is when Mafia townreads you in order to get townread and then abuses that trust to win the game.

antikrist says

Because you seem somewhat forced and, if anything, you looked like you were trying to pocket izzy.

Maybe if more than one person is saying it then it's the way you're playing.


I'm worried about her and want to make sure no one DOES pocket her i'm not gonna tell her who to vote I just want her to make her own choices and what looks "forced" to you

unvote thirdaug


We just talked about this izzy if you scum read third keep your vote on him if you don't it's fine to unvote
