| colspan="7" | My first game of forum mafia contains a lot of fumbling around as I attempted to fake town play (without ever having played town before). Day 1 was cake - sitting back as a belligerent townie got himself lynched. We noticed Praetyre playing cautiously and killed him, thinking he was a PR (he was Cop!). My partner had plenty of experience from another site and looked super town to everyone until she made a BAD slip and got lynched for it. Implosion was then able to lead a PoE lynch on me. I'm not proud of this game because I kind of just rolled over once my lynch gained traction. Still, I think I got to learn some aspects of basic scumplay.

| colspan="7" | I wasn't happy about rolling scum again. This game was an experiment in an aggressive playstyle that was unnatural to me. At game start, Notscience's odd newbie play generated a lot of confusing noise. I tunneled him, picking up on inconsistencies in his play, but he didn't get hammered and we had to wait until his Day 2 lynch. I had a general strategy to either eliminate the most experienced players or get them on my side. We rolecopped the IC, The Acting Method, then killed him the next night (he was Cop) before he could completely confirm his clear. The final day I played closely to Ms Marangal by letting her develop a confirmation bias towards DoctorPepper and following her movements. We convinced town to lynch during 6-P MYLO by saying a no-lynch would result in the same situation the next day, only with Autti (our presumed clear) gone. I was pretty proud of my play this game since I managed to stay completely out of the line of fire, being townread by most. TAM even said I was the scum MVP!

| colspan="7" | My first replacement game and also my first town win! This game was severely disrupted by replacements (even the mod!) and I inherited a slot that, despite leading the lynch on scum Day 1, wasn't confirmed. It was a unique situation because all possible-scum players were replacements, unable to answer for their Day 1 actions (and our clears weren't being of any help to discussion). At first town seemed to be in agreement that Sakura deserved rope, but then I got paranoid and started to see everything Ffery did through a scum lens, doing a lot of back-and-forth guesswork. When Sakura self-voted, Ffery thought me fencesitting scum. Sakura could have nearly pulled off a lynch on me until she got tired of the day dragging on and self-hammered. This game showed me I like playing town over scum for sure.

| colspan="7" | Pretty interesting game. I rolled Cop and was pleasantly surprised that my play seemed to be transparent enough to get townread by everyone. Then I found out: a near-universal townread, while great for making friends, was problematic for survival. I ended up investigating Xiao, who I thought would make it to endgame, and Mr. Flay, who I wanted to be able to cooperate with. Too bad I was killed before I could confirm my town results - I was clueless as to how breadcrumbs work, and omitted them altogether. Kattaze was a pretty awesome Doctor who correctly chose to save me Night 1, but unfortunately he WIFOM'd and let me die Night 2; Night 3 he saved Xiao. He afforded town enough time to find scum, even after several bad mislynches. Scumteam started brilliantly - I didn't even start looking in the right direction till I was dead. I'm glad the right people were around at endgame.

| colspan="7" |Scumhunting was pretty horrible Day 1, and the whole town would have been lost if not for an insistent IC. I thought TNE "too scum to be scum" since I'd seen him play idiosyncratically as town, and opted not to hammer him until the last second as a conciliatory vote. That ended up being alright! With TNE scum-flipped, it was relatively easy to sort EspeciallyTheLies and Guyett; I maintained a lot of paranoia about Notscience due to his supposed "new playstyle". We had mislynches to spare so I didn't feel too bad about Shane. Night 2 featured a no-kill despite a claimed tracker being about, so it wasn't scumhunting at that point so much as it was determining who had been inactive during the Night phase. HiddenPower replaced out like clockwork, so we had our answer.

Clearly this didn't quite work out the way I wanted, and I was lynched. On the last day, Fuzzy voted for Nacho - '''who I had previously  cleared with my hider shot'''. This was a very frustrating loss to watch, particularly since Town (except for our VI) had pretty much had figured things out and it seemed like an obvious win.

22, California. I don't really have a handle on my playstyle and I find it can shift a lot with every game I play. Here's a wiki for your evil meta purposes anyway.

Mod Entry Role Team Status Outcome
Crazy Started Mafia Rolecop Mattman/Fionnabhair Lynched, Day 3 Town win, Day 3
My first game of forum mafia. Faking town play is hard if you've never played town before. I fumbled a lot, but Day 1 was easy and a belligerent townie got themselves lynched. We noticed Praetyre playing cautiously and killed him, thinking he was a PR (he was Cop!). My partner had plenty of experience from another site and looked super town to everyone until she made a HORRENDOUS slip and got lynched. Implosion was then able to PoE me. Even though it's my first game, I'm rather embarrassed by it because I kind of just rolled over once my lynch gained traction. I wish I could reread it to see just how bad I was, but half the game was lost in the rollback.

Modded by Entry Role Team Status Outcome
quadz08 Started Mafia Goon BebbZ/Diabolik Survived Scum win, Day 3
This was me "trying something new" as scum aka being aggressive and tunnel-y. Notscience's odd newbie play generated a lot of confusing noise, so I tunneled him for two straight Days. I had a general strategy to either eliminate the most experienced players or get them on my side. We rolecopped the IC, The Acting Method, then killed him the next night (he was Cop!) before he could clear anyone. The final day I let Ms Marangal develop a confirmation bias towards DoctorPepper and mostly followed her lead. We convinced town to lynch during 6-P MYLO by saying a no-lynch would result in the same situation the next day, only with our town clear gone. I was pretty proud of my play this game since I managed to stay completely out of the line of fire, thought of as obvtown.

Newbie 1379

Mod Entry Role Team Status Outcome
Messiah/Zaicon Replaced in Day 3 Vanilla Townie Antagon, fferyllt, goodmorning, Karnage, Saki, theslimer3 Survived Town Win, Day 3
My first replacement game and the game that showed me I prefer town alignment. This game was severely disrupted by replacements (even the mod) and I inherited a slot that, despite leading the lynch on scum Day 1, was a candidate for lynch. It was a unique situation because all possible-scum players were replacements, unable to answer for their Day 1 actions. Our clears were zero help to discussion. At first people seemed to agree on a Sakura lynch, but then I got paranoid of Ffery. When Sakura self-voted, Ffery got paranoid of me too! Sakura might have nearly pulled off a lynch on me until she got tired of the day dragging on and self-hammered.

Zaicon Started Town Cop Mr. Flay, Kattaze, Mutleyddmc, notscience, rmpeacoc, Xiao Long Killed Night 2 Town Win, Day 5
Pretty interesting game. I rolled Cop and was getting read as transparent obvtown. Not good for my first PR game. I ended up investigating Xiao, who bothered a lot of town, and Mr. Flay, who I wanted to be able to cooperate with. Too bad I was killed before I could confirm my results - I was clueless as to how breadcrumbs work, and omitted them altogether. Kattaze was a pretty awesome Doctor who correctly chose to save me Night 1, and Xiao Night 3. He afforded town enough time to find scum, even after several bad mislynches. Scumteam played a good game of coasting/not sticking out - I didn't even start looking in the right direction till I was dead. I'm glad the right people, including my investigations, were around at endgame.

Bad game on my part. A late Tracker claim Day 1 caused us to no-lynch, and he died that night. I had difficulty scumhunting and spent most of my time trying to look townie. I thought I could recognize town!Mara from a previous game, but she flipped scum. Town looked to be having a comeback, but the next day went into a standstill due to inactivity. TGO was massively lurking but refusing to replace out, coming around occasionally only to proclaim how much he didn't care about the game (he was later modkilled for not playing to his wincon). I fatally determined Likeabauss as town due to his case on me which I thought "full of conviction". At MYLO, I started a quicklynch on TIP that really shouldn't have happened without analyzing the nightkill. Blah. Even thinking about my play makes me die a little inside.

yabbaguy Started Vanilla Townie JasonWazza, enomis, Siegfried, Wilma, T S O, notscience Survived Town Win, Day 4
Probably the Newbie I've enjoyed the most. Day 1 I spent a lot of time shouting back-and-forth with JasonWazza only to sort him town, and after that helped mislynch a newbie (oops). Day 2 I got totally sidetracked on Baezu (who ended up not only being town, but also almost 100% accurate with her reads). Notscience replacing in was a boon to town, breaking up Day 2 momentum for the better (similar to Newbie 1382). Guyett flailed and claimed Tracker, outing the true one. I didn't wise up till he flipped that I had been looking in the completely wrong direction, but the scumteam made some off-color kills that helped me PoE. I think my biggest mistake was not rethinking Kaze, my strongest town read from Day 1, who ended up being scum. I was quite impressed that this was his first game. In 3-P LYLO he and I crossvoted, and a confirmed Jason hammered for the win on Day 4.

The whole game might have gone differently if not for an insistent IC. I thought TNE "too scum to be scum" since I'd seen him play idiosyncratically as town, and opted not to hammer him until the last second as a conciliatory vote. I maintained a lot of paranoia about Guyett and Notscience. After a no-kill Night 2, it wasn't scumhunting at that point so much as it was determining who was inactive during the Night phase.

AngryPidgeon Started John Cavil, Mafia Goon buldermar Lynched Day 4 Town Win, Day 4
My first foray outside of the Newbie forum - humbling to say the least. AngryPidgeon came up with a cool flavor setup! Overall I had a really difficult time faking my reads or pursuing leads on anybody, and I think I hid behind the "I'm a newbie" wall too often for it to feel genuine. I lurked a lot :(. Buldermar and I fell for Nero's fakecrumbing and nearly fell for Malakitten's too. Our mistake was not killing obvtown Orcinus because he ended up being a Role Cop. I observed some great scum play from my partner and town play from the others. Buld told me early on to try to forget my wincon and not stress about micromanaging, advice which I've since tried to incorporate into my games.

***As a side note, this game caused me to watch all 4 seasons of BSG in about 2 weeks right before finals, so there's that LOL.***

BBmolla Started Town Seer Bulbazak, EspeciallyTheLies, T-Bone, The Purple Rose, Lastsurvivor, F-16_Fighting_Falcon Killed Night 1 Town win, Day 4
Interesting and hilarious setup. People found me very scummy early game, particularly after I joked about a cop investigating me. Somebody pointed this out as a "godfather tell" when really, I just had more knowledge of the setup because of my role. I began playing to one end: survival. At the end of Day 1, I, along with everyone else, counterclaimed Cop. Total clusterfuck which I'm sure the mod was laughing at. If I hadn't corrected my own claim to Seer I wouldn't have been nightkilled. I did manage to investigate one scum that first night though, and it felt good.

This played out like an Epicmafia game, and not in a good way. I wish I could say I played a solid Cop game, but the abundance of tracking/investigation cards made scum hunting totally unnecessary anyways. Despite the high scum-to-town ratio, I don't think scum had much of a chance given the godlike PR abilities.

I barely played this game >> I lurked and got wagoned before I could develop reads/defend myself. Remaining town got really apathetic - and combined with the mod not leaving deadline reminders and scum strategically lurking, there was a no-lynch. ON LYLO!! Fails all around.

Fantastic playerlist, and my reads ended up being pretty great too. During a massclaim, I gambited to claim full Hider, claiming that I wanted scum to avoid targeting me long enough for me to PoE through hiding. What I really wanted to do was be forced to claim my actual role, refuse to claim my other 1-shots while suggesting they were powerful, and force scum to try to target me while I would commute. Clearly this didn't quite work out the way I wanted, and I was lynched. On the last day, Fuzzy voted for Nacho - who I had previously cleared with my hider shot. This was a very frustrating loss to watch, particularly since Town (except for our VI) had pretty much had figured things out and it seemed like an obvious win.

Started out a nightmare when Wayne dayvigged during RVS (for a gambit that ended up not working). We vigged him so he basically wouldn't throw the game. Town played a pretty horribly at times but luckily, scum was even more horrible (screwing up fakeclaims, flailing when accused, disappearing from the game completely). TSO and Killerjester prevented town from going totally astray, in my opinion. DP was a great partner to have for a first hydra - with general ability and scumhunting methods in common, we found ourselves compromising well. Overall we ended up being right about 2/3 scum, but definitely could have pushed harder.

This was a hard game to get into and could've been lost to apathy. Doc/Vig was an incredibly fun role with some Jekyll/Hyde-esque choices to make every night. I am still unsure how this game got approved, as town had so many informative roles that scum had to be very careful about their night actions. Nacho replaced in and came to the rescue with PoE towards the end (we were happy to sheep), though scum were very unhappy about the replacements.
