Are we playing for money? I don't think so. We're playing for ourselves, and the process is more important than the result. And playing solely for the result doesn't lead to anything good. You don't even have to look far for an example of this – Jack clearly demonstrated it on the last day.

Otherwise, you're just lounging around like a sloth on a branch and dozing off!

But I believe that the game is created by those who play it. And if you do it the way you suggest, it will essentially be a game with passives. What will they create? No need to answer.

b) a game focused on role-playing. But you have to put in a lot of effort.

I don't see the point in suppressing emotions. I played very emotionally, and people praised me.

And yes, as you said, this is a game! So why the hell should I pretend to be a smart guy here (some dry, restrained person who objectively assesses the situation), especially if I'm not one!

Don't get mad at Jack! Maybe you could just put in some effort once in your life, get subbed out, and then come back when there are only five players left, and everyone knows each other's roles. )
After all, we all know that you have to play for the sub!

Don't get mad at Jack! Maybe you could at least try to help him out once in your life, let him take a break and come back as a substitute after five players are left, and their roles are clear to each other. )
After all, we all know that you have to play to win!

And you guys almost killed Ruddy on the second night. Did you have any suspicions?

Regarding the witch visiting Ruddy: I considered him a witch on the sixth day because she can heal herself :D. No, really, Ruddy didn't give me any reason to suspect him.

Besides, "one's mind shouldn't be clouded by personal feelings." After all, everything is good in moderation.

I tried to do things intelligently. It didn't always work out. It's not very easy for me, after all. But it's enjoyable.

I have encountered situations many times where, due to bold play, pressure, the desire to kill, and even just a friend's role in psychological Mafia, people got offended and all that. And... I don't understand it. It's a game. I only deceive, betray, and kill in the game! For me, such displays of "personal" feelings are a huge stupidity. Even more so than actions like "I'm upset because of him, I'm going to kill him."

Why am I constantly pushing everyone around here? I want everyone to play smart.
Why am I bored? Because it is very rare to encounter a situation where there is a real challenge, where you need to overcome, and the outcome depends more on thoughts and actions during the day in the thread, rather than on random events. Something similar happened during the attempt to execute someone, which was generally not bad.
When the game goes haphazardly, depends on random events and other conclusions based on inactivity, everything becomes gray and depressing after a while. That's why I don't play every Mafia game. And, without criticizing Ment, I wouldn't have played this one if it weren't for the immunity.

That's not true; Jackie and I don't argue constantly, only periodically.

This is a game, after all. You can chat with friends at another time. Playing based solely on likes and dislikes, without any other foundation, isn't creating a gameplay experience. It's subjectivism without teamwork.

I've encountered situations many times where people got offended by my bold gameplay, pressure, desire to eliminate, or even just a friend revealing their role in a psychological mafia game. And... I don't understand it. It's just a game. I'm only deceiving, betraying, and killing in the game! For me, such displays of "personal" feelings are incredibly foolish. Even more so than actions like "I'm upset because of him, so I'm going to kill him."

It would be great to add a loving couple here, who support each other and all that.
