GG everyone.
So I thought that Rainbows played the best. Solid town contributions all while not getting the mafia to go after him too hard. There wasn't much for me to do after a while because I felt like I couldnt add anything to his excellent cases.
Wave played extremely well too, almost too well. Was confirmed town for me after Day 1 but I didn't want to say anything to draw attention to him though. Guess mafia sensed his influence though. Obviously with that kind of play he put a target on his head though and died for it.
My thought process was this: Don't speak unless I have something new to add to the discussion. I thought it worked decently because I pushed hard to hold up Wave's mantle and get a Luneth lynch Day 3. Then essentially plugging the idea for the offensive jailing at the end of the game that finished it. But I was also scared to draw too much attention to myself. I'm thinking this is something to avoid in the future though because if I don't die, somebody else will. Might as well try to do as much as I can. But anyway I never made those huge quote filled cases because I trusted people were actually reading. Hoping what I said was decent most of the time. Most of my reads ended up being pretty good I think. This was my first game ever so I was learning as I went. I guess I must have pissed mafia off somehow if they targeted me night 3! Surprised they didnt go for Rainbows.
PS: I was not lying about my day 1 lurking due to stomach virus. That shit sucked! I remember waking up thinking that I had to drag myself to the computer and post so I wouldnt be accused of lurking, but then being like "fuck it Im going to puke".
Edit (Now that I can): I hope none of the newbie players got offended by any shit talking. It's just part of the game and I'm sure nothing anybody said was personal. Wave got me into playing this and warned me beforehand that he would not necessarily be nice haha

Omni, props to you for being so blatantly town-aligned despite being on the wrong tracks most of the game.
Idk how much of this game I'd be able to play, takes a lot of time, and I'm sure even more when people are more active. In any case, signed up for the next newbie -- 9 player game? Shouldn't be too long. Spring break coming up as well so I can no life it :D

nah, Frogon I felt like I had a reasonable town read on you early and it continued when I went back and read you a few other times. I think my N2 target could've been better, I as 100% on Raven as town and thought she was making the most sense so I protected her instead of Wave. I think if I hadn't tunneled as hard as I did on OE I would've seen it but eh.
Also OE, I hope no hard feelings. I'm very curious how Rainbow had that strong of a read on you because I didn't get that at all.

What did you see that you came to this conclusion because I obviously didn't. It was just after you became more active that I felt I had a good read on you; plus the MLuneth stuff made total sense.
My only criticism of your play (and take this with a grain of salt clearly) is that I'd like to see more open thought process from you.

It's hard to explain. Firstly, the way the AD lynch went I really thought all scum were on top of NW (which, incidentally, they were). Also, Omni was being very pro-town in general. Being wrong doesn't necessarily mean you are scum. I had my gripes like that huge question post, but overall I think his answers and motives seemed more townie than anything else. Especially that one post where he was like 'omg you guys can't all be scummy lurkers -.-' just spoke of a frustrated townie wanting to get reads on people, whereas scum would have embraced the lurky environment.

hmmm, I'll have to reread his filter next weekend.

Hold on let me find the quote

the largest problem I can see here, IS THAT THERE IS NO WAY ALL OF YOU ARE SCUM. So TOWNIES again I ask Wake The Fuck Up. I am seriously getting annoyed by the lack of activity out of you. You will cost us this game if you don't snap out of it before we end up lynching you.

I think I told you something about looking at his mindset and mentality when you asked in PMs. Omni was clearly working for town goals and pushing a town agenda (albeit pushing some things wrong) you can pretty much always assume that the most active player who is saying things and trying to push lynches and really cares about the lynch is town. Not 100% of the time but its a good heuristic to start with.
You guys also had teh day one vote counts which were never (as far as I know) analyzed well. When you lynch scum you MUST look at the voting patterns and the cases surrounding that player. Omni's day one play made it obvious he was not scum.
|
I feel like inactivity killed mafia too. I mean nobody was active at all on day 1. I think Matriarch had some personal issues so thats too bad. Sn0 got put in a tough situation, I feel like if he was there from day 1 he could've wreaked more havoc. I mean the fact that there was a delay as Acro searched for a replacement rather than a modkill made me suspect scum even more.
|
gg everyone, thanks for not killing me D1 gl rainbow, omni, geript, wave and raven
my reads were off and I wasn't sure if Omni was townie for the longest time. For some reason in the back of my head, I just had a conspiracy theory that Omni might be mafia. and sorry Taco.
mafia should have been active, there should have been at least one active mafia pointing out reads and causing chaos. town knew more or less most actives weren't scum, so it was just pressuring lurkers and the scum reacted at times quite badly
|
FWIW I'm convinced that the game should have been winnable and I misplayed fairly badly. Ah well first game. Thanks guys
Edit: First SCUM game, that is
|
Yay we did it!
Geript i gotta ask about your breadcrumbs.
Aside from the ones i picked up on, what was going on?
|
I was trying to be on the cusp of being lynchable. Proactive enough that that wouldn't see me as a threat but a reasonable lynch target. I also wanted to play around with the trolling style some. It's definitely fun. I don't think it helped me get my points across though.
|
I noticed you trying out the trolling style; that's what I figured. So the nutter butters didn't actually mean anything? I think I thought at first it was a mason thing because you had to 'share' them with someone? lol
|
Nutter butters at night = target protected.nutter butters during day = I liked the post and thought you were town.
|
Haha damn I wasn't going to pick up on that at all.
Well gg town; it was kind of an uncharacteristically easy game it seemed. GL in the next one!
|
^ ahh i see. interesting use of nutter butters
btw hosts are you still going to update the flavor for day 2, night 1? just wondering...anyways this flavor was racist to me, because I play terran.  I wanted to kill them zerglings.
|
Fun game. Good work town. Sorry I wasn't more helpful, hopefully I'll get better with practice!
|
I'm still wondering how Matriarch managed to guess properly to roleblock you.
