silently crept up on the victim - elephants in nature move silently

Honestly - I'm hearing this for the first time. And against the backdrop of the bonus clue, it was barely noticeable.

Not all mongooses have a reddish coat, far from all.

Kraken

Kraken fit perfectly with the wolf and his Caribbean pirates, even better it fit me with my avatar, Lovecraft, who introduced Cthulhu to the world, and the nickname of Icelandic origin, just like the Kraken. If I weren't myself, I would have already executed myself :rolleyes:

well, the mafia had to be given the miss with Azi :o

Most of those playing "Mafia" on ХВ also regularly browse the "Everything About Everything" section, unlike the GM, so the clue turned out to be easy.
In fact, the GM doesn't owe anyone anything. The fact that the clue turned out to be easy is not a big deal. The scary part is that the GM decided to fix everything by introducing an unsolvable bonus clue. It didn't get any better.

Thanks for the game. Despite everything, it was a good one.

I didn't like that Imaris didn't even try to do it properly. And he should have. If he had made the town likeable, Neyru would have been executed sooner.

I didn't suspect Neyru at all o_O. Until I realized, with her death, that she was the Mafia member.
Zubr, why did you give ambiguous clues?

I'd like to add my two cents.

I don't like the new trends in Mafia games related to finding clues. I believe that the essence lies precisely in the search – it’s the main process. For example, I don't understand anything about anime, but I see Neyra's avatar, go to some random anime websites, find a biography of this character, read it, find white sandals mentioned there, then look for an image of this character wearing those sandals, and post it in the thread. But what is happening now? In several games, Lady Slonysh asks, "Who is on your avatar? Are you too lazy to name them? Or are you Mafia?" And everyone just names them. Where is the game, actually? The most surprising thing is that there is no effect from this. Even with "open" profiles, people don't look for clues! They simply stopped doing it. Look at the 15th Mafia game. Everyone was searching! Wesker searched, Nebo searched, Cash, Brack, me... Hostor-Mafia was sweating trying to find Berber images on townspeople!
I also played as Mafia, and I perfectly understand how lazy it is to look for clues when playing as Mafia. But the Town forces you to do it through its activity. If you don't look for clues, you stand out. But what is happening now? In the last game, Slonysh doesn't look for clues (at first), which Host literally shouts about. But who would suspect her of being Mafia if the Town isn't looking either?
Well, Hostor is a man of the old school, still from BF days; he always looks for clues regardless of his role. But what about the others? Vegtam said who is on his avatar, analogy with Kraken, post it! But it didn’t work.
Now let's imagine that I am Mafia and want to give a *good* false clue related to my avatar. That is, it indirectly points to me and directly/indirectly to someone else. It benefits me if this clue pointing to me is not immediately found. But if I have to say who is on my avatar, what's the point in straining myself and creating such clues? It's easier to come up with a complex clue that indirectly points to me and hope that "maybe they will think of someone else."
In general, here is a brilliant post by Mr. Gura. But this is just my personal opinion on the development of Mafia games. I am {completely} switching to psychology – I don't like the current version of finding clues. Please don't take anything personally.

P.S. Otherwise, I agree with Hostor, at least with the part of him that I communicated with. :)

Sir, before making accusations and resorting to personal attacks, I recommend gathering some evidence. If you wish to respond, please do so in the "General Discussions" section.

:) I'm not going to prove anything to anyone. Those who are interested have already read the mafia-related threads.

Besides, I asked not to make any decisions about me.

Indeed, those who are interested know that most of what was said above about Slonysh's behavior was untrue.

And in general, I asked you not to make any assumptions about me.

Okay, I will try to attribute everything said about Slonysh to Zubr. :smile04:

Yeah, I was even thinking that I wasn't very good at playing as a Dungeon. Turns out, staying quiet and not drawing attention to yourself, occasionally throwing in a couple of clever remarks, is sometimes the best strategy :) Although I don't think it will work next time =)
Overall, it was a fun game - my internet issues almost coincided with my execution :) Even if I hadn't been executed, I wouldn't have been able to play actively anymore... But the execution of such a Barbarian with the Iron Maiden could have been a big mistake if it hadn't been for the coincidence :smile42: Although in the end, the city played very well.
Thanks to everyone for the game, and a special thanks to my fellow conspirators. And congratulations to the city on the victory!

You think it's untrue — I think it's true, others will decide for themselves...

Alright, I'll try to attribute everything said about Slonysh to Zubr. :smile04:

That's up to you. :)

I'll repeat once more (for those who didn't understand).
My goal with my post was not to insult or taunt anyone; I simply expressed my outsider opinion on where the mafia on HeroesWorld is heading. Many don't think about it, but I do. Incidentally, I waited a few games to observe the trend.
You can let my words go in one ear and out the other, you can draw some conclusions for yourself, you can write a rebuttal, you can take a stance and shout, "it wasn't me and all that"...

I am not a trendsetter and I am not calling for anything. The GM decides how to run the game, and each individual player decides how to play.
