Elements Mafia 46 - by Frozengaia

Agreed. Only one person has yet to claim, and he's normally pretty active, so I'm not too worried.

1) We've had a ton of complex mafias so far. What do you think of this mafia basically only having a few doctors?
2) Do you like bunchies? Why?
3) Who here playing do you think is a good mafia liar in general?
4) Do you like 'sleight of hand acts' in games? (e.g. Mindgate copying enemy deck cards, Cloak hiding the field, etc...)
5) What's your favorite rare weapon?
6) How rusty/new/experienced are you at mafia right now?

1) It certainly promotes a lot more discussion and analysis. It means we'll have to actually think and work stuff out to get anywhere, so it probably disadvantages town. We'll see how it turns out in the long run.
2) I would partake in a bunchie, yes.
3) I have no idea, probably the most experienced players would be best at blagging their way through.
4) I would prefer all the cards to be on the table. Then again, if its in my favour then I'm not complaining.
5) Anything but Trident.
6) I'd say I'm on the newbie side of moderate.

1) I have only played the last game, and I found it too complicated - if rules need this much explaining, they are not good rules. This one is cleaner.
2) Bunchies and I have an agreement of peaceful coexistence
3) Can't really say
4) A bit. Sometimes I use them, but frankly I am more often on the receiving end - Have I told you why I hardly ever play PvP in MMOs?
5) Titan, then Farenheit and Arsenic in second place
6) I would say semi-rusty

• Every mafia has its own spin; back in the single-digit days (where KDZ was essentially the mafia host king), there were a handful of secondary roles that affected one's vote, stopped/mislead certain abilities, or investigated someone's actual role.
  
  Throughout the months/years of mafia we've had, this is the only one on the top of my head where we basically have ONE role to rely on, which is both wonderful (playstyles are less on reliant on abilities/ability usage, more on analysis and actual communication) and maybe not as wonderful (only one role has any affect on which side can win in actuality, probably more bland in what anyone can actually do to have fun perhaps).
  
  
• I'm neutral on them still, but I don't mind if they're posted in chat. ^^;
  
  
• Fippe94 is always muhfia (j/k) - honestly, eljoemo and Fippe94 know how to play mafia in such a way that they've gotten out of situations so easily despite initial intuition, so I'm always putting them at the front of my mind when it comes to suspicions. Demagog was also excellent at manipulating others, but he's not around anymore sadly.
  
  
• Not really. Either too inefficient for grinding or too niche for general pvp.
  
  
• Eternity, duh.   \/
  
  
• The more I play, the more experience I feel I'm getting at what to do and what NOT to do as an upcoming host. As a player though, I still think I'm just average.

1) I think it's nice to have a simple mafia game every now and then.
2) Yes, because they're cute.
3) I'd say Dm and Root, but they don't play this time, so I'll say eljoemo and dawn to dusk (just because they were mafia in my mafia and they played excellently)
4) I like mindgate and SoSe, so I guess yes.
5) Arsenic for unupped, Vampire Dagger for upped.
6) I guess I'm an average player.

What a pity.

I do remember when I played as mafia; I flew completely under the radar till the endgame. Good times.

1) I think it is nice, it gives us a chance to talk more instead of relying so heavily on abilities.
2) To admit the truth, I don't know or understand what they are. So for now I'm neutral until I have further info on them.
3) I'm not really sure on this, I'm usually too naive and trusting to tell apart the lies from the truths unless they are really obvious.
4) Sometimes, they can be really good if I'm using them to deceive my opponents, but as exciting if my opponent is using these tricks on me.
5) As much as I want to say Druidic Staff for my loyalty, I think I would actually say Owl's Eye.
6) I'd say newish as I've only ever played mafia here, and I do not have a desire to play it anywhere else or pursue it anymore then as a fun relaxing game on the side.

1. I like the simplicity. I'm not experienced enough to know if the rules favor one side or another, but my gut says town has the advantage. We'll see how it plays out, I guess.
2. I don't really get them, but I don't have anything against them, either.
3. I hear Root is a really good player, but he's been killed early as a result in every mafia I've played with him so far. Other than that, I don't really know.
4. Sure, I like variety and that adds some.
5. Lobo, but I'm biased toward Aether.
6. Relatively new, still figuring out things like mafia-tells and such.

Oh, and to take dd's advice and not do Random Lynch:

UTAlan (1) - qwerter
qwerter (1) - UTAlan

[iancudorinmarian]

RNG decided:

UTAlan (1) - qwerter
qwerter (1) - UTAlan
Treldon (1) - iancudorinmarian

[Treldon]

Oh my...

I guess I will go with the trend
UTAlan (1) - qwerter
qwerter (1) - UTAlan
Treldon (1) - iancudorinmarian
iancudorinmarian (1) - Treldon

[ddevans96]

UTAlan (2) - qwerter, ddevans96
qwerter (1) - UTAlan
Treldon (1) - iancudorinmarian
iancudorinmarian (1) - Treldon

Going to leave my vote here before sleeping. Can't deduce anything solid yet unfortunately.
