Nice telling us to be respectful. Next thing you'll want us to be polite too and say things like "please" or "thank you"
Also I see you've secretly rearranged the order of the players according to you who like most and least. Only second place. That self hatred tho

Yeah, there was a comment about the Dr. Who player having way too much stuff to juggle in the upcoming game.
It's kind of the thing with participation and why I haven't played... because regardless of what some people said, I'm actually pretty busy / can't afford to block off Mafia time and the game of Mafia I played was really hell on me due to the time commitment I kept my promise to make. About all I can afford is to sit in the "heckle-tator" box, since I can just pop in and out at will when I have a moment.
Vanilla Town seems to be the easiest draw -- there's a lot of them (in comparison), you can play pretty straight-forward, and your biggest thing is simply (1) looking like Town and (2) finding scum. And if you get killed, it's probably the "least" deal among all the categories although obviously in the long run it matters -- still, the expectation is that some Town necessarily need to die in this game.
Drawing scum or power roles complicates things and feels like a much heavier burden, demanding a lot more care with thread reading and "strategerizing." Especially here if you draw the Doc.
And since you don't know what you'll draw...

I like the creative spin to the most recent games in terms of setting (Despite Dr. Who), and think it's cool if and when the gamerunner can invest time in the narrative a bit. It makes it more of a story experience versus a mechanical/strategic exercise.

Jack of all Trades is as complicated as it seems. What the game really needs is a Gladiator so I can gladiate someone great big red text. I love gladiating people in great big red text.

How did you figure it out Minuend?
Awww look at Jenny not being in games but wanting to be in the game-related banter. What a cutie.

I think I am the first official INTPf Mafia Groupie.

It's all new to me and I find that I cannot stop checking for updates. Better than television.

Thanks! I need some time to process it all before I commit to playing - been cruising the wiki, picking up fundamentals. It's very enticing.

Well as a general rule of thumb for any game, if you fucking stopped actually going to bed and sleeping for six hours a night like a normal person, maybe people wouldn't be doubting your commitment to SparkleTownsville.
That's what your mom said.
Hey there, newbie.
Just do what I did and throw yourself in at the deep end. There's nothing quite like learning as you go!

When I announced I was going to bed that wasn't generally true. It was more of a "I'm going to go focus on more relaxing things for a bit" announcement. My sleep cycle for the past few days has been "watch tv or something for an hour or two (I'm watching this awesome Korean thriller/drama right now), go to sleep sometime around 3 or 4am, wake up at 7:30/8 if I can. Go back to sleep until like 2 or 3pm"
That shit wasn't even that bad,
Just imagine what it's like being stuck in my head 24/7, man.

No thanks. Based on my experience with your kind I can say my near-perpetual state of anxiety-fueled insanity is preferable. One of my close friends is INTJ and I wouldn't wish his existence on anyone.

The doctor who role will be a little complicated, but I wanted a game with a fair bit of surprise but a good balance. This was my best option to avoid being too swingy. I took like 3 approved setups from the MS Wiki and kind of smashed them together.

One voice in my head is totally shaking its cage to do just that; at this rate it will tear the door off. One of the other voices has a taser.
Soon.

You should join the Dr. Who game. Someone dropped out.
