Games Mafia Game 142 - McHelpers - Game End

[Natasha]

Has something stuck out to you with Pigeon's hint? Felt very pige flavoured which makes me think he's probably okay.

I feel like Erin has said that exact line the last few times

Among all sole passive/active claimers AP is the only one without anything extra to it and he keeps talking big about his blending in game as mafia so I'd rather not give an evil pidge his hometurf to play on.

As for erin she needs some mechanics to hit her if possible since she admitted to being very busy so her social will be hard to read. And yeah, same comment as a lot of recent games but she's also always been town recently so idk.

Morning. I think the votes are updated again.

Oops. I guess I should have used the usual vocabulary then, mine is not there. My bad.

Votekill GrySun.

Yeah we'll ignore wtv doesnt follow the format unless you people point things out for us. So please, freaks, help us there.

1x Marms - DD #5
1x Nash - Slyth #7
1x Teub - Lawl #72
1x Gry - Teub #111
1x Pige - Nash #116
1x Kako - Bran #119

From this rainbow of votes I'd go Pidge -> Kako ------> Marms in preference for voting as things stand. Decently big gap between kako and Marms.

As for the people casting votes I feel like we might be majority town as long as marms is town. Until my vote on pidge I don't feel like we've pressured a mafia member so maf might be chillaxing on their votes atm.

Have I missed where Kako said more than passive for their hint? You also seem confident in Sty who I only have penned down as hinting active so if you could elaborate on those two then I'd appreciate it.

Some mechanics you say I suppose the same post each time can't be concrete in pointing towards alignment, but I would like more from her when she isn't hogtied by IRL stuff

I'm gonna go touch grass I'm trying too hard

Check Stylether's first page of posts and look for the duck. It think it's decently obvious and very bold for a newbie to claim as mafia.

Kako didn't say more than passive, I just have more confidence in reading his play than I do in AP. Kako is next in line for sus.

Feels more paranoid than anything lol. I could be off but I just don't see him as that sus atm

I'm visiting fam atm so I'll see if I get the fun stuff.
But real grass for sure it's lovely outside

You think that's him claiming it and not just posting the duck emoji because they go quack? Bit of a corkscrew motion that

I feel like I'm worse at reading Kako so we're opposites there

Alright. I'm willing to progress onto Kako and I guess Erin if we take a crapshot but I feel like there should be at least a hit or two in the people with weak hints.

Have a nice time!
Meanwhile I have Ingerland weather with all this rain kekw

I agree, the had it already doesn’t really say much at all when someone has played a lot of games. You did the same but at least you added the passive to it. So its whatever, we’ll see when she has time to be around later

He literally larps it in his first post #trust I know this man.

Pure crapshoot would be 0 activity James but yeah, I agree that the weak hints can get a whacking.

Yeah, I see it the same way. I think it by itself is a nothing burger really, and even more-so with the more games you've played. Like you might eliminate a handful of new roles but there's still a big pool of roles there that it can be. Active/Passive helps narrow it more, but I agree that the best judgement on it can be made when they actually play a bit and we can evaluate that engagement (or lack thereof).

how strong are you feeling the larp? casual larp or larp larp larp sahur final boss?

--- Double Post Merged, Jul 13, 2026 ---

Am I all by myself now that Nash is gone?

 

[Stylether]

He literally larps it in his first post #trust I know this man.

Every time I do a post 1 hint I worry I'm being too subtle.

Then Nash over here just waltzes in and goes "Oh yeah, that hint was so obvious, this man practically claimed".

Smh.

So you're claiming quack?

 

[Stylether]

How can they reveal a samurai and not put one in the game

Surely the mentality of "they added it for this game, so it gotta be in" doesn't serve us particularly well, considering last game not every role was used, especially when one of the revealed roles is a sanity variant. Surely, by that logic, whoever the doc might be could be assuming that they have to be the since it's new and all.

As far as I know my medical malpractice has not come to light yet.

--- Double Post Merged, Jul 13, 2026 ---

Also, for the record, I'll be active and sniffing, but I seriously and consistently struggle to really pick up on any sus on d1 without any hard data to go off of yet.

The only person I might be able to get a good read off is powertripping on a hider claim which... I'm just not touching rn.

 

[SirSamuel016]

absolutely healing.

Oh yeah, on that note, active

^ so Nash says this all ties together that Sty is hinting/claiming quack

a sanity variant

but per this the quack doc isn't its own role but a possibility among the doctor sanities, i.e quack doc doesn't know they're quack unless one of their protection targets eventually pops as an illusion?

oh lord

 

[Stylether]

Oh, and just to be sure, in my home community, there are role guessing evil roles. Their main role is to avoid everyone coming out and just open claiming their roles during d1, since that puts maf on the back foot and makes it harder to fakeclaim something coherent.

There doesn't seem to be one in the role list here, what, beyond the social contract of not doing so cause it's a bit lame for the poor maf, is preventing us from just... rolecalling right out the gate?
