A lot of people look too much for specific advice. The truth is you get better at mafia the same way you do anything else, you practice and analyze what went wrong when you fail, and what went right when you succeed.
You see a lot of people blaming others for losses and that shouldn't be the case. If you lost and you weren't N1, you had a way to win, you just didn't find it, whatever it was. When you lose, think "Was there something I could have done better?". Maybe it's obvious-maybe you misread someone. Why? What did you miss? Maybe it's more subtle-sure your partner wasn't going to win that cc on their own, but could you have won it for them or set yourself up to avoid trouble later? Maybe someone didn't listen to logic-could you have found a way to talk to them that would have worked? I guarantee you can find something you did wrong, from something big like how you read someone, to something small like how you phrased a single sentence.
Sitting down after every game and thinking about these things will make you a better player, guaranteed. It works the same way with anything you do, mafia or real life.
Fall. I like the variety in colors, and the cool breeze it brings reminds me of the town I grew up in. It's very pleasant. I played mafia at a summer camp when I was 13. I was the best there and really enjoyed it. I searched for somewhere to play it online and joined near the end of June 2010 under the name Enter. The game was fun, but more importantly the people were fun and more intelligent than I was used to. I didn't have anyone similar to me in my hometown and EM was the first place I really felt I could connect with people, and 6 1/2 years later here I am, though I've pulled back from the social element as my real life relationships and responsibilities have grown.
I experienced a rebirth of interest at the start of 2015. I realized that despite thinking of myself as competitive all of my life, in fact I spent my entire life just afraid. I realized I didn't have what it took mentally to compete and succeed, to improve. I viewed mafia as a way to sharpen my mindset and conquer that fear, and decided to do everything I could to be the best player I could. It really worked wonders and made me so much better, both by making me less afraid to fail, in mafia or in real endeavors, and made me a better player. I learned to love the game and the process, and I'd cite the creation of Tatami in Jan 2015 as the time I really got into mafia itself.
i for one, am not looking to pity you lol. but i feel that fact about my life is an important one as concerns who i am. i am curious. pm me if you like/would oblige.
You choose and your choices are unmistakeably yours. You just didn't choose what you were to begin with-and you never could. Everything follows from there. Selfexplanatory I think, but I feel as though they are less determinant of who you become. I also feel that is obvious.
My bad for missing it, I'll skip ahead (well, back) for you.
School starts for me on the 24th (move back in on the 22nd). This quarter is very CS heavy which I'm really excited for and I only have one more requirement to go! I honestly can't wait to be back in school, both because I miss the learning process and because I really miss my friends. I consider it my only home.
As a player you're fine, better as scum than as town, could be a lot better if you played more seriously and really put your mind to improvement but I doubt you want to.
I know virtually nothing about you as a person. You're mildly funny. Most of the other descriptions I can give you are neutral and things I'm sure you already know, such as that on the surface I see you as someone who's lost, and as someone who is searching for attention-not in the obnoxious way but more in the way that you don't have the same love/support base that a lot of people do and don't really know how to make up for it, but feel you need to. White. I like of the idea of the absence of color, of purity. I used to dress in all white back early on in high school because of this. The purity idea is more than a little bit troublesome due to its application to race but I can't really shake the fondness I have for it. Fried.
