Gemma's Favorite Music Mafia

Welcome to Gemma’s Favorite Music Mafia! Another merry-go-round of discussion and death. I love too much music to share in one place, but you all get a piece!


Rules

1. Don’t be toxic. I have zero tolerance. Personal drama is not welcome and you will be subbed or modkilled if I deem your behavior to be harmful to game health. Treat your fellow players with respect and kindness at all times. If you are unable to follow this rule in the heat of the moment, take a break and do not post in the game.

2. 8pm EST deadlines, 50 postcap. Postcap not lifted before EoD.

3. Day phases will last 48 hours, Night phases will last 24 hours. There will be a 24 hour pregame period. Wolves have daytalk at all times, including pregame.

4. Do not lie about real life commitments. Similarly, do not question the validity of other players’ real life commitments. If you will be inactive for a prolonged period of time, inform the game host so you can be replaced.

5. Mafia is a game of analysis. Removing a player’s ability to analyze things is against the spirit of the game. Keep references that only a handful of players would understand to a minimum. Encoded messages, hidden text, and other such methods are a no-no. Everything you have to say or not say should be clearly readable in your post by anyone.

6. You may thank posts (but do it responsibly). Do not edit your posts. Do not quote information directly from moderator communication, your role PM, private chats, or any other sources of game communication outside the main game thread. Only living players may post in the game thread. Do not post in the game thread during the Night phase, unless your role explicitly allows you to do so.

7. You may not privately communicate with anyone except the game moderator, unless you're explicitly allowed to do so by the game moderator. This includes using systems outside the scope of the game to communicate something game-related. Any game-related questions should be asked privately to the moderator. Do not talk about your conversations with the moderator in any game thread.

8. Do not use out-of-game information (such as Discord, other forum activity, other mafia activity, or real-life activity) to generate reads. Do not use out-of-game information to exert pressure or influence on this game. Do not mention out of game information in the context of explaining or speculating on a player’s alignment in this game.

9. Votes must be bolded and on a separate line using this format: Vote: player. Any votes not following this format will not be counted. Special thanks to Benneh for providing Turby to perfectly make VCs. :00 good, :01 bad. Votes made after modpost saying stop posting will not be counted.

10. Majority yeet disabled until YoLo, where votes will be locked. The player with the most votes at deadline will be yeeted. In the event of a tie, the yeet will be randed between the tied wagons by the game moderator.

11. Do not fake daytime activations. There may or may not be daytime abilities, but faking them will get you a Stern Warning or possibly modkilled.

12. If you believe a player is violating one of these rules by the letter, or in spirit, contact the game moderator privately. Do not address the potential violation in the thread, proceed on normally.

13. Keep the game fun for everyone, since that's why we're all here.


Setup is closed and normal, reviewed by Cuth and GH. Flavor was assigned randomly and separately to roles.

let's have a fun game \o/


also nice to meet ya pzelda o/

howdy

I’m not sure I expected anyone but Stett to be here but I am still kinda sad we’re 10 mins deep and no one real has posted :(

I’m playing champs next year

post right meow so I can find you I need practice

vote: didistetter

let’s see that votecount in action

happy cinco de posto

what up friends

vote: raskolnikov

:Rideau:

statistically speaking, one of the players who has posted so far could be wolf

in that theoretical world, how were the vibes n0?

in my theoretical world we laughed at the rand but i won't discuss why

ooo yay

Annika v Ben probs v Stett probs v

Easy reads to give but it’s always nice being the first

Actually Stett read is premature

If she’s active I’d expect her to have interacted/bantered with Benny more here since he’s the only person active and they have a dynamic

I don't think stett wants to talk to me

also ftr your annika read is also premature but you already know all your reads are

if they were any good at the game ladd and visor would get in here and call you bronana and espouse the the reality of you being town while giving a read on a 3-word-posting bee and stett's intro

but c'est la vie and all

Yeah I defs expected people to think the Annika read was premature/tmi

But I’m being completely serious when I say I’m like 99% sure she’s town

Didistter

i kind of want to say waza is v already for getting the ball rolling

the vote counter needs you to vote with Vote: didistetter in bold fwiw

or Unvote: in bold etc

does his TR of you make sense to you?

what about his TR of me/stett and his reversal to now vote stett?

why is or would that be 'sufficiently' getting the ball rolling for someone with his range

I thought the fact that he townread Stett and immediately rescinded it was kinda townie lol

tbh I don't know why he TRs me but he's right that it seems like TMI on first impression so it might be something he avoids as a wolf

Oh damn you really are taking it seriously

Err I think if you read more with your more traditional methods rather than with a champs approach you’ll be more likely to find me Benny

But ur welcome to discard this suggestion and play as you prefer :book2:

i'm not, i'm just getting the ball rolling, so to speak

i don't have reads on anyone or anything right now but mayhaps there'll be some nugget later on for us to dig through

ofc i do, i'm just more trying to let the game breathe and check in when i have time.

Also spending sod just yapping with someone i ought to be able to have an alignment read on by eod probs is just annoying for everyone else but eh maybe i'm being overly worried about being annoying again

I can see the visor read, if I weren’t use to Annika I’d say them reciprocating the tr on me is wolfy, which it would be for most people there just not her

Stett probs lock v

cus i showed up for SoD XD

:bow:Turby Org Vote Counter v1.0:bow:
Day 1 - Votes from post 1 through 37

Votes	Target	Voters (Posts in Phase)
2	didistetter	Visor (3), nebjiamn (13)
13	Not Voting	Arctic (0), Ender (0), Lissa (2), Maple (0), Raskolnikov (0), Sunbae (0), Taffy (0), annika (4), didistetter (6), dyachei (0), ladd (0), pzelda (0), waza (6)

---

i just want to see this in action sorry for stealing ur thunder gemma

@Arctic @ender @Maple @Sunbae @taffy @dyachei @ladd @pzelda get in here

btw it would be beneficial for yall to not out too many obv reads before ppl show up. keep it close to the vest a bit and see how people read the game as they join rather than give wolves a blueprint.

also just generally speaking explaining process is going to be more valuable than just blatant defending/pushing. if you dont wana do that then just do what visor is doing rn IMHO cause at least visor's posts are not stifling discussion

this isn't a champs tryhard thing its just like general fundamentals

LMAOOOO that’s so about as far as you possibly can be from the actual read

That’s a wholesome post though and I’m relieved you haven’t caught onto how I read you lol

Automatic vote counter? How does it work?

I've dreamed of the day we had one at the org lol

I have reasons for my reads but as you say, I don't see a need to disclose them rn until more people show up

python script that scrapes the site. you provide the base URL and it searches through each post's bold tags and assigns votes with fuzzy matching. tracks non-voters, posts, and invalid votes. It doesn't automatically post from the gui yet but i'll add that in eventually. I had this working like 30% a few months ago but I decided to finish this 2 nights ago. it also saves the posts it fetched so you dont have to reload the pages each time you fetch new vote counts. it also saves the config in case the app crashes or you close it for the night, itll load all the base settings back in when you boot it back up

you can run it as a py script from the github below or I have an executable file you can run.

lmk what other features you want, this is just 1.0 and i'm modeling it off of the votecounter we had on 2p2 for a while (fennec fox)

meowdy

literally cant read right now (not becuase i dont hae time im just dyslexic and was playing ww all day)

glad this game isnt intersecting a mash like the last one did lol

how yall doing

ok now I can say that I am incredibly relieved to have randed villager in this game lol

I will be taking it pretty chill

I am very sleep deprived at the moment

How many in rask ladd taffy dya?

yo i miss empoof too he was great

gonna sleep for the next 12 hours come back and yall better each have like

25 posts

vote: annika


lissa has a good entry
visor has an OK entry (by which I mean about what i'd expect from him)

maple's entry sucks but probly not in an alignment indicative way which is a shame cause she probably coulda seized an easy town read if town by just being less potato. palpability such as in lissa's posting would have been neat to see. oh well.

waza's entry is 50/50 between sucking and being ok. the post about me taking it seriously + "How many in rask ladd taffy dya?" are both super wolfy iyam, but the rest of his posts feel ~fine to good and what i'd expect from t!waza to be out defending who he has as town for no real reason

stett's entry is ~whatever. best post is about lissa. i'm sure she'll come to play at some point but slight pings from her "i actually dont tr annika/benneh/visor yet" spiel. its believable but seems unnecessary. shrugze

little annika meow meow IMO

looking forward to friendo posting tomorrow

Lissa dropping in, posting a couple times, and then three hours later hitting us with the "wow im glad i randed villa" opener is the weirdest post in the thread

if the last game you randed town in was pokemash then that means you didn't rand town in this game

This is going to be one of those things where I don't know whats happening and get cleared for it but why does it never happen when I rand wolf :wall:

hi annika!

oh sorry I'll explain! Lissa just finished a really great wolf game when she posted the "i'm so glad I randed town this game" haha, that's why it was 3 hours late

I think your observation there was villagery, it completely slipped my mind that interaction would look weird from an outsider PoV xD
