There's another soft I would like us to do, and this thought crossed my mind because I've never seen my role before. I think this one is good enough that it could be meta for future games.


According to the MafiaUniverse role database, is your role frequency Common, Occasionally, Rarely, or not in the list, at least not under that name?


My role is Occasionally. Again, I've never seen it before, but I haven't been around as long as some of you have, and roles may be more or less common in different sites' metas. I think this should make role fake-claiming much harder for scum while not giving them a dangerous amount of information.

Thoth
We have over 24 hours right? I'd be a bit more forgiving of the tardiness, as it's Christmas, but I'd really rather he post soon. Having a life can be a capital offense when it comes to mafia.


Thoth
Btw. Is it a meta to attempt to coordinate night actions here? Dunno if it’s even possible seeing we don’t even know what roles are in the game.

Not normally. Are games on MafiaUniverse normally open-role? That meta would fit better if so.

Thoth
I am one of these 3. Not going to say which one. Fake character claiming for this is going to be challenging. My bet would be that scum got fake character claims over role claims.

I am one of the first two and figured that everyone else was one of those two until I saw a person claim.

Thoth

I'm also curious what the theme split could be. Not being a sportsball fan, the only thing that comes to mind is that scum are good decisions or plays that were successful. With scum having been given fake-claim assistance, this might not be of much help.


On a tangent, I'm always amazed how sportsball fans seem to know everything that recently happened about sports, especially with their favorite team. Where do y'all get your information?

Thoth

Before someone calls me a hypocrite for not softing, I'm suggesting that we discuss what kind of soft to do, or whether or not we should soft at all, before giving them.

Thoth

Hello world and all who inhabit it. I've been thinking of softs we could do. Here's one that I think could be okay:


  1. I am a decision made by a team, either the Bears or their opponent
  2. I am an event that happened to the Bears, not directly due to anyone's decision
  3. I am someone or something else, like a specific player or coach


Also, at risk of mild OGI, Vader's statement in the signups thread that not having a Discord link means you are town is close to mod-confirmation that there are no third parties, not that we should have expected a third party with nine players. (What kind of evil moderator would put a third-party in a game with fewer than ten players??)

I couldn't believe that anyone bought that justification for Barry being Strengthener lmfao

Thoth
Yep, exactly.

I think that puts me two for two at guessing what a role does based on its name.

Thoth

I am unconvinced that the backdoor communications/gay pun in your role card was intentional.

Thoth

Ceru, Vader, and Rex. I see them on page 3 now. For some reason, they were not loading earlier.
