lol hesmyrr you bastard. Last night I got bored so I read the thread and did an analysis and I had the scum team as JeeJee/Prplhz/Unichan after day 1.5, and its all because of how you posted on Day 1 that I didn't get you, I read your posts and it ran pretty much exactly what I had been thinking. You didn't give me much to work with and what you did looked really town. It's a shame that you had to drop out, and then dementio didn't really post.

Well to be fair I dropped off at very early stages, so it is likely I would have tipped you off somehow when people actually start to vote seriously and stuff. Actually I never managed to finish any of the games recently hasn't I, considering I had to drop off at Pokemafia exactly at the same way (at least I think I also established pro-town rep there so my replacement wasn't THAT detrimental).

Also while I concur everyone needs to be looked at - quite lot of game I observed was lost due to that fallacy - not sure that the shyness/indecisiveness itself is hallmark of scum. Maybe it that player continues that behaviour throughout the day, maybe. I deliberately tried to appear aggressive, and I think JeeJee was quite active as well. In fact if you look at my previous posts you can see I got freebie attacks on most townies precisely because they weren't bold enough and simply insinuated stuff.

yea I think despite all the flak lurkers get, lurking is pretty much the best way to not get lynched. I only played 2 games, both as scum, and got deep by lurking while town was yelling "lurkers you are scum! but I'll lynch the active guy!"

look also at unichan who was here till the end. Imo someone who talks will always look more suspicious than someone who doesn't. It sucks because I think it makes for less enjoyable games


and that's a meta-game we have to change.

I know that next game I play I will shout for lynching all lurkers

Palmar the problem with that, is a lot of the time its not feasible to kill all the lurkers which is a problem. We definitely need DT's and Vigi's to cut down lurkers though, because wasting lynches like that is stupid.

Wow, gratz Maf.
if I had to describe his playstyle, it'd be a coked up rabbit with the attention of a goldfish injecting caffeine into himself directly through an IV drip. it's like a reel of random animated shorts where things just blow up randomly

Also note that had I not been replaced out, none of the mafia would have been (intentional) lurkers.

Right, so I know I played, but I'll post my thoughts on a few things.

The number one thing that everyone should take from this game is to look at voting reactions. This game was clearer than it will almost ever be, so it can provide a very good example:

Day one: Everyone piles on the votes. There is NO way that mafia would let one of their own get that high in the votes without a fight, and the only real reason why I didn't press that point was because I was vet and didn't think that it would be possible for two vets in the same setup. Otherwise, this should have been a clear indicator that Sinani was innocent. (Sure, the replacement isn't necessarily scum, but at least you have a much clearer town read on Sinani than you do on the replacement). I was stupid for ignoring that fact too much.

Day two: Everyone votes at the beginning of the day, and there is no real push for a different lynch. I don't think there was ever a person with over 1 vote until the end, other than OriginalName. In addition to this, there was VERY little discussion about anything that day. That won't happen if scum are unhappy with the lynch. Again, another huge tell that OriginalName wasn't scum. (I'm actually going to revise the statement I made earlier, and say that the reaction from people is MORE important that the initial analysis.)

Day three: Again, the same thing happened: There was really only one person up for lynch, and not a lot of discussion surrounding it. No one was fighting for me, and people were making weak arguments against me. Even though I explained my play, people keep on the vote. Late in the day it should have been clear from the reaction to the voting that I was town, if not from an analysis of my play.

Look for things like this in future games because more often than not they will flip someone before they die and you can revise the lynch.

I for my part failed terrifically on my analyses, but read the responses correctly. Perhaps with this game as a reference I will be able to convince people of the truth of reading the response better.

I'd actually be interested to know why those townies left voted for me, because I thought that I explained myself rather well. (Especially with the vet claim that would make no sense for me to use after Sinani flipped Vet AND I said that it's perfect for scum to fake claim).

Congratulations to the mafia, you guys played well.

I'm currently on an indefinite hiatus from TL =(

What we may have here is a scum trying to hid among the actives with 6 contentless posts since the Day 1 post.

youngminii
Much like ON until he votes for Palmar. I'm not really sure what to make of him.

Mataza
He switches from his usual townie style after being accused and then not a lot of content after that. Not much more to say.

JeeJee
He has been quite town-friendly. Good content, especially in his later posts.

unichan
Lurks, votes for Palmar, and then unvotes, saying it was just to see how Palmar would react. This is a scummy excuse because he didn't say he was doing it for a reaction when he voted.

Palmar
Confusing.

Kavdragon
Says to focus on lurkers then lurks.

dementrio
Hesmyrr was very active and town-friendly and dementrio's first post seems to continue this trend.

Varpulis
Most active, but sometimes this is what the mafia try to do. 75% town.

prplhz
Medium activity, tries his hardest.

stefftastiq
I am sticking with him unless one of the other players I marked red surprises me.

If I couldn't vote for stefftastiq, I would vote for Kavdragon, because he is a lurker and scummy.



I guess I'm really good at scumhunting? Like some type of insane vanilla townie role?

That's pretty hilarious. Though, at that point in the game I think I wasn't too far off of that either.

i think you're undervaluing your posts and how they made you look townie

it's almost as if you and jeejee took ver's guide, got all the parts under "people that are townie" and then applied that to yourselves this game

so in other words good job ^^

also, man am i glad i played this before playing any of the bigger games, i feel as if i played horribly this game compared to how i played before and will try to fix it

Ty ^^ but mind that by "lurking" i don't mean not caring. I actually put a lot of effort in my posts, and spent more time than I proably should have on them, to sell myself as town. The problem is that it feels more like writing a school report rather than playing a party game, and goes against the spirit of mafia someone's on-the-spot reaction should play as much of a role as his analysis.

I think being "out there" and spewing posts all over would be more fun, but it would be much harder for me to do - especially since I don't have any town experience - while at the same time I run a much greater risk of getting lynched even if I do it well.

detectives help

i can't remember the last time i played a game without a detective honestly, well besides completely vanilla townies vs regular scum
i guess we relied on blue roles too much this game

I hate detectives. If I ever decide to host again, you can be pretty sure there won't be any detectives.
