bussing is getting old

deletedalmost 7 years

the whole point of bussing is that mafia does something that usually isnt done, and now bussing is used like 1/2 games

it defeats the purpose and its not really useful anymore because everyone who isnt braindead recognizes that its a probable thing to do for mafia.

p.s: i dont mean stop doing it at all, just tone it down

do you agree with me???

Bussing is not bad when it's done for the right purpose. When a town is lynched, just enjoy the show! I hate those noobs who think bussing when town is lynched is a right strat. Bussing is efficient when it's not expected (mainly when you come close to an autoloss).

So you are basically crying because you got bussed? If I see the chance, or my partner is being totally scummy I will buss. Its friggin obvious.

i'll never bus a mafia unless i 100% have to, it's just not worth it. most times you just need one town player to vote incorrectly to win, and it's pretty easy to find that player. bussing just delays the whole process and often backfires anyway


nice meta, now EVERYONE who plays with you is able to know what you do as maf. literally if you fos your partner in 5 way lylo with or without clear, and they get lynched, they would think that you are town. sometime I play my cards right by being overly confident and I make bussing work

you cant bus if you're never mafia

I find that people generally expect a bus, and that hard defending my partners even when they are obvious mafia has a 2-fold benefit:

1. I get to defend my partner and increase the chances of lynching town

2. If my partner is lynched, the next day everyone is like "Well Bacde must be town no mafia would ever defend their partner that hard"

then talk to your partners at night beforehand and discuss a game strategy

no, if your partners seem scummy and everyone is onto them, the dumbest thing you can do is to climb directly up their a/ss to defend them blindly


thats given, im talking about people who go out of their way to bus mafia

Funnily enough, that's exactly how Pranay gets lynched lmao


Wrong bro. Absolutely wrong. I know what gets me lynched. It is not that. If that were the case then I would also get lynched when I do it as town. I get lynched when I am scummy or when I am fear lynched.


OK not every time, but you absolutely call all 3 mafia some games and then people lynch you because they think you're just making stuff up

Basically you cant decide when to bus unless you are in the game. So the discussion here is futile. It is completely based on the situation in the game. The important thing is that you have to know the repercussions of bussing before you do it. You have to evaluate whether it will help you in the game or not. Some morons bus because they think their partner is scummy and then get lynched because the bus was obvious. So bussing their has no up side. Sometimes you have no option but to save your partner so bussing their is not gonna help. There are specific situations where bussing is very helpful and you will see me bussing there. Like when my nilla is innod instead of hooker, I will get my hooker shot.


pranay your english is bloody fantastic. it used to be so bad! is that because of epicmafia?

I think the worse part is when your partner tries to bus you to save themselves... I'll usually just try and become vague and give no traces on who my partners are when I'm in this situation.

This feeling when I realize that bussing puts me in a good position, but doing quite the opposite puts me in a greater one.

i disagree wholeheartedly

town are uninformed, if town appears too omniscient it can be scummy.

I stand by that if one of my partners are scumtelling, I will bus you right then and there.


That is the most stupid thing you can ever do. Firstly you have no idea what scumtelling actually is. You will draw attention to your partner for no reason.
