I'm starting to think that raynpelikoneet is likely town despite my initial concerns about his posting style. I've already stated this, but he did it in mafia LX as mafia dayvig and he was scum. Now, it's entirely possible that (as stated earlier by somebody) Chez was faking it and scum used it as cover to nuke Xat themselves. I'm willing to bet there was no need for Chez to actually type it in thread if it was his. Either way if people CAN stop this I'm not entirely sure it should be. Also hai guise I back.

Both of the people voting for me currently have provided absolutely zero reasoning as to why I'm scum. On July 07 2013 10:42 johnnywup wrote: I now remember why I stopped playing mafia, lol. Sorry if I look like scum, I haven't played in a looong time and even then I was terrible and always looked scummy as town. Why wait until two others voted me to vote me? You already thought I was scum. I really do think vayne is scummy atm though. Nothing productive at all. (say what you want about me but you can't deny that vayne hasn't done shit). Look through his filter. I don't know if he's just lazy/bad town or purposefully doing nothing but not liking him :\ WoS is also not looking very good for me atm but I can't really put a finger to why. His sarcasm is questionable for me and obviously I don't like him voting for me (don't like anyone voting for me though, obviously). The only constructive post he has is the one that targets me, which is good, but for the rest of his filter he's sarcastic, talking about other games, etc. I don't know. There's 5 people voting me right now. Since I'm town, there's probably 2-3 scum voting for me and 2-3 misguided townies. Among the people who voted for me, I think WoS, TanGeng are the most scummy. I've already said why I don't like WoS, and I don't like TanGeng because for one thing he hopped on my bandwagon right after WoS wanted to start it...and he also hasn't said much. He's just been...there. He hasn't said anything of value. I'm pretty sure xatalos is town. I'm unsure about vayne.. I don't like him by any stretch of the imagination but he seems too bold voting me first...I don't know, he may be scum still. Abenson hasn't posted much...like at all. I can't really read him based on his posts in thread but he certainly looks like scum to me for quietly hopping on the bandwagon to vote me without saying anything. So essentially...glorified OMGUS, and he's voting me based on that and what might be a shitty gutread. Cool story brehhhh. On July 07 2013 07:20 geript wrote: WoS I don't have a real read on yet.

K. Anyway let me comment on some other stuff. Dandel is much lurkier as scum than town so mabes keep an eye on him. He tends not to give a shit about anything at all which is certainly evident thus far. As far as another lurker lynch I don't like it. There are WAAAYYY too many people who fit that description at this time and while I'd agree that there must be scum amongst them right now, it's basically a crapshoot and I don't know what our odds look like. Who is who thought Onegu might be scum? From watching his newbie games I'm pretty sure I could pick him out so let me have a look. | ||

I'll look over Chez again and your post but if you'd recall I already commented on how this play is extremely similar to his scumplay in LX; it's probably a little too early to tell though.

I have way more townreads than I do scumreads atm (which on one hand sucks yet on the other makes sense considering the ratio). I could get behind a Dandel lynch today....MAYBE Chez. Ace I saw you commenting on how it's bad to talk about whether a player has a nuke or not: I was trying to lead Onegu into setup discussion to see if he would take the bait and go on with it. As you know in the recent newbie game you yourself instructed scum to stop the Nosy Neighbour talk after it had died down because they didn't want to be the only ones left cluttering up the thread. I wanted to see if he'd take it and run with it; he did not and as such i believe he has either taken your advice to heart as scum or is more likely town this game. I will see how he continues to play but for now I would not lynch Onegu. To comment on Geript's tunnel of me----that's just what he do. He does it literally every game we've ever been in together, regardless of either of our alignments (I've always been town). I firmly believe him to be town this particular game so it hasn't really bothered me a great deal thus far, and whereas most games he tunnels me to the exclusion of all others, in this game he hasn't so it hasn't been counterproductive to scumhunting. | ||

The fact that he brought up the stupid Venn diagram makes me want to say BH but it would be too simple. He says he has a knowledge of my scumgame so someone in Les Mafia for sure. I'm thinking DP/iamp/BH/Prom. Either way I want to see more from him because I'd like a better read. You and I appear to have similar thinking this game so I'd like to see if he really IS a good lynch today. | ||

I don't tend to write long posts/cases until the game is much more developed so I am not going to be something I am not, sorry. There's nothing to elaborate on Caucasian, his filter is 2 posts. The thing is his 2 posts were both pretty large scum traits in my opinion so I am fine with lynching him already. What about them specifically? I don't see how you think it's enough to elaborate that you think it's not just a lurker lynch and then provide no reasoning. | ||

I was the same way. Any town player who sees someone acting so clearly insane and anti-town tries to look for an explanation, besides just "he is scum" because as a town player you don't trust anything or anyone. You don't trust the obvious. You see someone acting like Chez and you don't think "ah, this veteran is obvious scum" because that's not how you think. No, you see him acting that way and you ask "why", and not just rhetorically. You ask the thread. You find out he's insane. And you act on it. That's not what Onegu has done here. This is a reference to LX in which Geript was town, I was town, and Chez was scum (and dayvigged someone much in the same way he nuked here. He put more effort into trying to appear like a town dayvig though in that game but it's still eerily similar). This means it's either Prom or BH who of my above list were in both of those games. I'd lean towards Prom as Prom relies heavily on meta which is how he analyzed me (I would argue somewhat incorrectly) thus far. If it's Prom (or hell, any 'veteran') they would know better than to think Onegu would have a good idea of how to regard to Chezinu at this stage in their mafia careers, as Chez is one of the most enigmatic players out there. I was told to ignore grush in that very same game and yet I didn't ALL game, and have seen other newbies do the same. Why does he expect a newbie like Onegu to ignore Chez's scummy actions?? | ||

NG also gives an explanation as to why he thinks Onegu's thinking isn't town motivated based on geript's play in another game. This is where you think he is a smurf account.

So he just ninja voted ZBoson. Chez put way more effort into his game as scum in LX. I understand your reasoning for pushing Chez atm, but I can't help but get that kush feeling out of it----it essentially amounts to a policy lynch because we may get no information at all out of Chez, and it's entirely possible he flips town. I would call it one of those 'why are you pushing lynchbait' kind of things but it's not even like Chez IS lynchbait...he's on a whole other level. You probably know him a lot better than I do. Is there a chance that there is some convoluted town motivation for what he is doing right now or could he be trolling us as town? If this really WILL be amounting to a policy lynch and no one knows or can expect more from him this game then it may make sense whether or not he is actually scum, though I don't know if I'd want to lynch him if we have strong scumreads today. | ||

You conveniently left your vote on me all day despite other people actually formulation opinions and reasons on me and having those change an adapt and yet there you sit, with the same basic opinion you formed in the first 2 hours. Why are you shouting about mislynches now when there has been no flip? Do you know something we don't, luv muffin? Have you seen Dandel's town games? I have. This doesn't look like it.

If you actually pulled this move and you are town I gotta give you some credit. That's some sneaky shit and I have a great deal of respect for this if you're making a play. Most people prefer to play straight and I haven't seen a fake play like this since my first game on the site. Some of your conclusions are pretty solid. I'd vote Maju and I want to take a good look an Austin now especially since he was the main proponent of the ON lych which everyone seems to for some reason) agree was completely town-motivated. Since I believe DI to be scum I don't think that's the case. I'm not sure about jampi because he's a newbie, and it's possible he simply may not have thought about silent nuke not firing when you say it out loud. That being said I remember noticing him talking about that and thinking wtf. I will keep my eye on him. Biggest problem I find is Ace. A lot of the points he has brought up regarding you strike true with me. I am certainly not convinced he is scum and I believe it is more likely that you are scum than he is, though I also believe it is very possible you are both town. I'd like to see what he makes of your 'big play' and his reaction to it. I won't be doing any major posting till my usual time later, probably after lynch but I will try to get a list of my reads before deadline just in case I'm shot (doubt it). | ||

Either superdive Geript and find out if he's scum or town once and for all, or completely ignore him. Anyway, we lynch DI up until the point he's modkilled or some shit. Will have the chance to do some more reading in a bit to find out who our next target should be. Something strikes me as off with Xatalos---it may have been the way he was super insane-o quick to believe Rayn without doubting anything he said but I want to be sure before laying down any suspicion. It's probably fairly prudent to mention that it's entirely possible that the NKs were submitted on the basis of this being an extremely lurky scumteam. I think someone else mentioned 'everyone talking now is likely town' (though I forget when it was said offhand) and I remember it resonating with my thoughts. | ||

Find out right now whether Maju is scum or not. I'm not a huge fan of pre-flip associations but look: Geript likely has the same role as Oats. Oats has used his anti-nuke in a protown manner to protect people. Geript seemingly does the same. Oh wait, he didn't use his on D1 when he could have protected either Xatalos or MZ. MZ who he has a townread on. Fast forward to the last few actions. Uses his anti-nuke to protect jampi, who is town. Alright, makes sense. But now let's think for a minute about the repercussions of his actions? We were forced to actually LYNCH jampi and waste a (likely) town nuke for no reason. Now look at what he proposed today?

He wants to use up the town lynch again---it is MUCH easier for scum to act when they know that town has already picked their target for the day and especially if they have an anti-nuke at their disposal. This technically works if MG is town OR scum because Geript's agenda is simply to waste town lynches. If MG is town he simply could have let him die yesterday, true. But by protecting jampi he sets us back a kill AND gets towncred in the process. And then in the end what does he do regarding yesterday's lynch? HE STILL FUCKING VOTES JAMPI. If MG is scum? Geript may be able to talk his way out of it when MG flips (though he certainly can't get away with protecting him today after what he said about lynching MG). That is why we absolutely MUST nuke MG today and LYNCH Geript. Look back through his posting and look at how much random shitflinging and fingerpointing he does without following up. Shit tons of questions directed at random people, no conclusions. Lynch this guy with cleansing FIRE. | ||

This is a tough call because it essentially means that austin and geript will be playing the exact same scumgame. Generally when DI isn't active in thread he is still posting in scum QT so the question is how hard did he try to convince his scumteam to bus him, if at all? I'm not sure how much sense it truly makes for austin to hardcore go for the mislynch when he could just as easily have taken the bus all the way to the bank. Geript's waffling on the ON/DI lynch looks much worse than what austin did imo. I'm not clearing austin here, I just think Geript's actions are scummier, and I find it somehow pretty unlikely that they'd both hardcore push a mislynch wagon to save a scummer who would essentially end up dying pretty soon anyway. | ||

Why didn't you make a case on me? You limply left your vote on me until nearly the end of D1 for basically zero reason and then you jumped on board the ON fail-wagon. I seem to remember you in one of our earlier games (I can't remember which it was, I looked) saying something about how you never pushed a read all game as scum. It's funny because this reminds me of that play. The endless early tunnel also reminds me of your scumplay in The Game, as I mentioned earlier. Have you gotten better overnight? No, you've gotten better over the course of quite a few scumgames that you've had. Let's assume you ARE town right now, however. Let's also assume MG is being nuked and he is not on the table.

This seems like the most likely scenario. C. Both scum bussing eachother which makes very little sense since it would be fucking obvious after the other doesn't die at night. D 1 Stutters is town and was telling the truth and gave town Ace a fake nuke to see what he would do with it. (No fucking clue why) 2 Same as above but Ace is scum ---> ends up being same as A. If you're going to consider options, consider all of them, including ones that don't fit your plan. | ||

Okay, going back to the plan I said a couple posts ago then. I've got an idea that we should lynch one that's not Maju/Stutters. If the nuke lands, we have a probably dead scum and another alive confirmed scum. If it doesn't land, we have a semi-confirmed townie and an alive probable scum. I'm not sure if this is better than lynching maju, because he's probably scum, but we'd get no info out of that. Stutters isn't black or white in that case. Anyone's thoughts? Stutters gave Ace the nuke on N1? | ||

I've got 2 issues here with this; 1.) you knew this hours before this post and was active. You didn't claim this until jampi got nuked - why? 2.)Really? When did I say that?

If we mislynch it's triply bad. If we just lynch MG, okay, we lose 1 person. Of course we'll be trying to lynch scum but the possibility is troubling if we mess up. If we lynch someone else outside the situation, and it turns out to be a townie, then we lose 1 during day and 2 at night. Of course, if we lynch outside the situation and hits a scum we're in a GREAT position, we're almost done. There are 18 alive right now I believe (correct me if I miscounted) which means 14 town and 4 scum, at BEST (assuming no 3p for sake of argument--including 3p only makes it worse) So as far as I can see there's the following possibilities: + Show Spoiler + + Show Spoiler + A: We lynch outside the situation, hit townie. Nuke on MG doesn't hit. On day 4, it's 11 townies to 4 scum at BEST. B: We lynch outside the situation, hit townie. Nuke on MG hits. He's scum. On day 4, it's 12 townies to 3 scum at BEST C: We lynch outside the situation, hit townie. Nuke on MG hits. He's townie. On day 4, it's 10 townies to 4 scum at BEST D: We lynch outside the situation, hit scum. Nuke on MG doesn't hit. On day 4, it's 13 townies to 3 scum, at BEST E: We lynch outside the situation, hit scum. Nuke on MG hits. He's scum. On day 4, it's 13 townies to 2 scum at BEST F: We lynch outside the situation, hit scum. Nuke on MG hits. He's townie. On day 4, it's 12 townies to 3 scum at BEST + Show Spoiler + G. We lynch MG. He's scum. On day 4, it's 13 townies to 3 scum at BEST H. We lynch MG. He's townie. On day 4, it's 11 townies to 4 scum at BEST + Show Spoiler + I: We lynch Stutters. He's town. Nuke doesn't land. On day 4, it's 11 townies to 4 scum at BEST J: We lynch Stutters. He's town. Nuke lands. MG is town. On day 4, it's 10 townies to 4 scum at BEST K: We lynch Stutters. He's town. Nuke lands. MG is scum. On day 4, it's 12 townies to 3 scum at BEST L: We lynch Stutters. He's scum. Nuke doesn't land. On day 4, it's 13 townies to 3 scum at BEST M: We lynch Stutters. He's scum. Nuke lands. MG is scum. On day 4, it's 13 townies to 2 scum at BEST N: We lynch stutters. He's scum. Nuke lands. MG is town. On day 4, it's 12 townies to 3 scum at BEST (assuming if we hit scum today we get rid of 1 KP, there is 5 total scum, and the rest are townie, and if we lynch MG we don't know whether or not the nuke would hit) Averaging the outcomes (if outcomes are equal---which they are obviously not, but just something to consider) Lynching outside the situation or lynching stutters: 11.833333 townies on day 4 with 3.16666 scum Lynching MG: 12 townies on day 4, 3.5 scum Lynching outside the situation therefore has more townies/scum on average, and is probably a better pick than lynching MG. Although I included lynching stutters as an option I don't think it's a good idea at all because it lends itself to REALLY bad situations imo. However I haven't taken into account that if the nuke doesn't hit then Stutters is probably town and if it does hit he's probably scum. Intuition tells me that lynching outside of the situation lends to better results if you take that into account. But back to the dilemma. Best possible scenario: Lynch outside of the situation, hit scum, nuke lands, MG flips scum. Worst possible scenario: Lynch outside of the situation, hit town, nuke lands, MG flips town. Most likely scenario IMO (sorry town but after 2 mislynches I have less faith): We lynch outside of the situation, hit town, nuke may or may not land. The problem I have is that if the nuke doesn't land we lose 3 townies for nothing in this situation, when we could have lynched a (relatively) confirmed scum. On the other hand, if we do decide to lynch MG, we get no information on Stutters from this at all. So I'm really torn. What does everyone else think? Oh yeah I meant to comment on this. I doubt you're nything bt town at this point, but mind explaining your assumption as to the KP formula in this game? If we hit scum in MG you know it's still possible scum have 2 KP tonight, right? | ||

Either we had one silent nuker with two nukes who could only shoot once per day OR Two silent nukers and one happened to hold a shot for the second day OR Someone, scum or 3P, gets a silent nuke each day, and used it to shoot at town I find the third more likely than the first two. An infinite vig is not crazy broken in a game where multiple people pass out nukes every 2 nights, or at least I don't believe it to be. As of now, based on what we've seen, the only nukes that started off existing were the volatile ones, and we've seen multiple folks flip as technicians. Implying that nukes that didn't start in this game are created. It's less damning when it doesn't match up with stutters role PM, but you guys know who I raided if I end up killified. Honestly, I believe that you believe what you've been saying, I just don't necessarily agree with it; it seems just as likely to me that some random scummer only had two nukes or something.

I recall that when I was catching up I ended up agreeing with him in a lot of aspects 2) Him shooting down jampidampi nuke for his weird-ass reasoning if a reaaally weird play to make as scum. Only possible scum scenario I can think of is if he wanted some town cred for shooting down a townie, but that's just so risky. Can you link the main points against geript you'd like me to answer? I agree with what you've said and I firmly believed him to be town earlier on in the game but I changed my mind on him based on his shitflinging towards me and now his actions regarding jampi. It's not the protection of jampi that worries me (ie 'well-meaning townie' as Oats says) it's that plus the idea that he wants us SPECIFICALLY not to nuke MG from the very start of last night and rather to use our lynch on him. Combined with scum reasoning for shooting down the jampi nuke (towncred + wasting our lynch as he knew town sentiment was against letting jampi live, therefore he knew we'd waste our lynch on him) Geript must be scum. As far as Geript responding to me, I believe he did already but he didn't really tackle my points against him head on, and tries to skirt around it by treating my claims as ridiculous. | ||

This leads him to believe one of them is the silent nuker, most likely vayne. Vayne was also attached to the jampi/maju group yesterday. If austin is Town, this puts more scum favored points in Vayne's direction. Stutters looks like he just messed up his role PM if anything, and made a mistake trying to figure out what happened with my original nuke. Stttuers is of course Scum if the nuke on Maju succeeds. For now both Stutters and Vayne are Town. austin is a wildcard. 2.) Onegu and SnB. Again as I said earlier, 4 town roles that spread radiation. I think we all know this can not be good. We should definitely go this direction, possibly regardless of what happens with any of austin/maju/vayne.stutters. The way this game is going we're behind because we can't stick to one thing. Too many people with suspects everywhere, and we can't agree on one thread. This time, we either solve the snb/onegu stuff, or the austin/vayne/stutters situation. I think its much simpler to go the Onegu/SNB route even though Austin has votes right now. If austin is telling the truth, gets lynched and flips Town that doesn't mean vayne/stutters have to be scum for sure. I don't think both Onegu and SNB can be Town and SNB has been mia. No mention of Geript whatsoever? And why is the choice between Onegu and SnB, Ace? I mean, that's an easy choice for me as I have Onegu firmly as town, but why did you present those two as options specifically? It reads as though you're trying to lead a lynch away from somewhere. | ||

My favourite part is how Ace attempted to 180 just as I discovered gumshoe's ninjavote, so it could look like he naturally reached the conclusion before gumshow pulled his scummy shit. Preflip associations but s'gotta be right, rite? | ||

Oats - Actively shot down nukes on townies super early. Makes no sense to do for towncred imo. Since him and Geript have the same role I would bet specifically in this case that there is no way they are both town, so if I'm wrong about Geript, he is scum. Stutters - No fucking clue. Leaning town on him a little since fake nuke and all but meh. Sentinel - nuked scum. Ace - Leaning town honestly. Can't be sure why, but he had plenty of plays he could have made as scum but didn't. For whoever says it makes sense as scum to shoot him early, Ace has a pretty hefty mislynch history recently and doesn't play in a 'cleanly' town way that people would expect him to, so he's difficult to read, hence good for mafia to leave up. MajuGarzett - Fuck if I know but he's gotta die at this point. Johnnywup - Not a superstrong townread but a town read nonetheless. His anger at the case I made on him early seemed genuine and he looks to be trying when it would be pretty easy just to lurk the fuck out since nobody pays much attention to him. [green]Onegu/green] - Town. Pretty much has to be for that comment where he says he killed Tofu. Geript - Not as strong of a scumread as I had earlier. Remember what I said about him and Oats and think about my case on him if we see flips on the people he was involved with earlier (ie MG) Vayne - He really DOES change his playstyle from game to game. Whereas at one point this much activity and analysis could be considered a scumread, in his last game (where he was mislynched, hilariously) he played well and was town. StrongandBig - I refuse to believe that everyone in this game is playing against their wincon so blatantly so kill this guy too. Chezinu - No fucking idea. His play in LX looked a lot like this guy and he was scum. Caucasianasian - Gutread. I dunno I can't see his scumteam letting him come back constantly and just post 'HAY GUYS I GIFF READS' and then disappears 80 times. Alakaslam - This guy is psycho. To be fair I've never seen his scum play so I don't know if it would be as crazy but this certainly looks exactly like how he's been playing town thus far. Austin - I have no idea honestly. I want to say with the effort he's thrown in over the last little while he'd be town but I just don't know him well enough to be able to tell for sure. I guess he did put in shit tons of effort like this in PTP and was scum.... Hmm. Too many townreads it seems. Have a look at Vayne. I'll downgrade him to null. | ||

By not attempting to clear the auto-obv lynch on N2 to actually save a lynch (or in the least find out if the nuke worked) he wastes time and a lynch. Next, instead of taking the sure scum lynch in Maju, he goes to nuke him (despite it being able to be protected or redirected last second) making it such that even if the nuke were real, Maju would stay alive. On top of that, he doesn't act like the nuke is a "real nuke;" if it were, he would've changed his vote and started to push a different player. Since he knows or in the least assumed that the nuke was fake, by faux nuking Maju he gets him another turn to buy both a potential mislynch (on someone else) and save Maju (and KP) for yet another turn.

Right now we have 6 people slotted to die in a few hours. We need to figure out whom of those we actually want to die, if there's anyone else we'd like to add to that list, and if there are people on that list we think might not actually die like they're 'supposed' to. 1) Sent--->Austin - Likely real and Sent is likely town. Not sure if this makes Austin scum but there may be higher priority nukes to stop. 2) Maju--->Geript - This may be the one that requires the most discussion. Geript can obviously save himself (and probably will) this does not necessarily speak volumes on either's alignment. 3) Chez ---> CA - Possible fake nuke? Not worth wasting time on either way imo since CA hasn't done a goddamn thing all game. 4) CA--->Chez - I like how CA magically wakes up, says 'I have a nuke?' And retaliates. This may be the scummiest thing CA has done all game so I'm certainly fine with letting #3 land. The question is will it, and do we want to do someting about this one on Chez? Chez's play has been particularly enigmatic, vote patterns, posting, everything. I'm up in the air on this one. 5) ???--> Onegu - I think this one could be stopped. I have no doubts this one is real. It *COULD* be a gambit to get Oats to waste his protection but seems really unlikely---the needs for scum to 'make plays' like this at this point in the game is close to nil. I have some ideas as to what we can/should do but I want to hear input from the rest of this waste-of-space town. | ||

Here's the problem I have.

If I redirect it's going to be a scum nuke, so I'd appreciate you not fucking with me.

Chez is still pretty amusing and at least plays the game, albeit in his own strange way. CA's play I have more of a problem with this game and though the onus is on us for not having killed him for it, it's a borderline dick move to constantly make out-of-game excuses for your play and survive that way.

Guess I'll just have to lynch him because I doubt anyone will be able to tell a difference between his normal town stupid and his scum stupid. Also, I'm removing the too stupid to be scum as a town tell because him. If anyone can be that stupid normally or fake being that stupid that well then oh well. Yah, MG should've died D3. But no one listened to any logical points on why to lynch him instead of nuking him and why that made Ace scum until a day or 2 later. This is not an example of a game with good scum play. I don't think I've seen a game of good scum play since The Game where Kita and Bugs and BH dominated throughout. Ace played pretty well, but the rest of the scum team rode him like a bitch in heat. Chezinu was Chezinu and he forever will be tunneled, shot, lynched, etc. in every single game from now on until he decides to actually play for real. I hope they lynch his ass in Ver's game. Also, Oats your scum play is going to be pretty easy from now on unless you step it up. This is a prime example of town derping and not having players with a reputation that can push a lynch. Being able to push a lynch here is 90% reputation, 5% luck, 5% thought. That's why Ace was able to get away with the bullshit he did on D3. Maju gets lynched earlier and you guys have far more problems. Closed setup also heavily favored scum especially with 6 scum and a god awful SK. Game would've been fair if town had 1-2 more vets and idk 3-4 less dumbass lurkers. I'm not so sure I agree with you to be honest. First of all, you can't necessarily have a bunch of experienced players in every single game taking up every spot---if you want that kind of a game, host an invite only. Putting up with lurkers and general shit play/newbiness is part of what TL Mafia is about and always has been since I've started. Consider someone like BC who would fully advocate ridding every game of players that fit your descriptions. There are people who agree but it's not exactly an easy task and there are probably multiple levels of shit/weird play that some people find acceptable and others don't. Where do you draw a line? As well, after this game I'm pretty certain you don't need a 'reputation' to push a lynch---I got the Gumshoe lynch through instead of SnB/Austin and I don't think you'd consider me someone with a reputation----you just need to play/convince better. Obviously this game was particularly difficult in that people simply weren't fucking PLAYING the game, but I don't see how it had anything to do with 'vet' vs not. You're a qt and all, but you balance whine a LOT. It's hard out there for a host. I feel like the setup may have been slightly non-town favoured but again, themed. Nukes flyin' every which way and shit. A whole fuckton of blue roles more than there would normally be. Take it in stride, my friend. | ||

I think by the end of D1 13 of 27 players had less than a 1 page filter. Onegu is here and trying to post WHILE HE'S FUCKING SICK OFF HIS ASS!!! People can devote enough time to scumhunt and be productive. If this lurking bullshit doesn't stop then we're going to have to have more vigilantes or find a better way to manage it because that in and of itself really imbalances the games. This I can agree with. I think the minimum postcount needs to be raised. Once per cycle + vote is simply not enough to ensure an enjoyable game.

I hope it gets discussed in one of the podcasts at least...the way vets are treated around here is ridiculous. I'm pretty sure this was discussed in one of the very first podcasts actually. And I'm pretty sure Geript was actually involved in it. It essentially comes down to the fact that 'vets' are vets for a reason, and have a certain way of doing things that in general make people want to follow their directions. They have shown themselves to be quality players time and time again. That doesn't necessarily mean they are perfect or should always be sheeped or are incapable of fucking up or whatever. I dunno I'm pretty sure in the podcast the 'vet' vs 'noob' bias was debunked somewhat. Solstice what specifically are you referring to in this game about vets being treated differently than others? | ||

Lurking is just unacceptable. I really hope that more games actually become invite only if this level of bullshit continues. I agree with this. Obviously I disagree, but there's an important reason why. The Gumshoe lynch was a really weird situation that I don't think you could reproduce. It was what like D4 so there aren't many players. He was kinda lurking and I thought about Rayn's townread on him from D1 and went fuck it, people don't want to lynch who I want to lynch so I'll throw my hat in with WoS because I know he's town and I don't think I can convince him to lynch otherwise. To get a good lynch early on D1-2 definitely and often D3 as well, you need a someone who can throw their reputation behind the lynch or else it doesn't get moving. This I don't agree with at all. It has less to do in my opinion with who a person is than what they're capable of to get a lynch through. Geript your townplay (aside from that weird shit with jampi/MG) was really solid this game. Part of mafia is proving that you are a person whose word should be followed and convincing people that your word is what makes sense. There are multiple ways of doing so---for example I listen to Prom a lot when he plays because his meta analysis is crazy strong and I find his reads to be very accurate. This isn't because he's a 'vet,' but because he manages to convince me through his cases and how accurate I feel him to be. I find him friendlier and easier to appeal ingame to than someone like marv, for example. I honestly think the inability to convince people is not anyone's fault but he who is trying to do the convincing/trying to push a lynch. The "experienced" to "newer" player ratio isn't something the host can or should control IMO. I'm a full on believer in random role distribution. My point was that after the early kills town didn't have a "rep" guy who could circle the wagons around a lynch. As for game setup/role balance, I think that the hosts hit the exact numbers and roles right on the money honestly. | ||

Yet people thought I was trying to lynch a nuke despite knowing that there are nuke immune roles in the game AND that Rayn had called Ace scum. Ace used pretty words. I used logic. Who won that argument? I can't speak for other people but my reasoning for not listening to you was because I thought you were scum! It didn't have anything to do with Ace specifically at that point, it was my own case against you and your actions which appeared like a scum plan to me. It has absolutely not a thing to do with lack of respect for you or a great deal of respect for Ace. Not listening to Rayn is because I don't find his early game reads particularly accurate much of the time. He can be, but the whole 'listen to dead people' is kind of overrated in my opinion. Dead guys are bound to be right about something or another, but it's not like you have any way of knowing that any more than someone who is alive until you see some flips. You have no idea why mafia killed them. | ||

I get the argument that people listen to vets because they often say shit worth listening to. That doesn't stop it from being frustrating. It often feels like there are two games going on concurrently...one where the vets play with eachother, and one where the rabble does whatever the rabble does. The problem is that it makes a lot of worthwhile shit get entirely overlooked. I think its frustrating for both sides really. It creates a situation where non-vets are readily ignored, and the vets get hounded for stupid shit by all the 'big game hunters.' A good specific example is Basterd actually. Remember what happened on our day 1 lynch there WoS? Town sheeped Marv, who was gone for most of day 1. This is not Marv's fault by any means, but imagine how a non-vet feels in that situation. Why even bother trying if the town, like so many other towns, is going to just end up lynching who vet X tells us to? Another random example is Mad Men, from awhile ago (not sure why that suddenly popped in my head lol). Toadesstern as town played the game by making a list of the vets, declaring that some of the vets had to be scum, and then focused on his list to the exclusion of all else. This kind of shit happens around here, and it's not rare. It is not a problem if the rule is that useful shit gets get read, and ignorant stuff gets ignored. The rule around here though is closer to, in my opinion: 'the vets get read, and non-vets don't.' Again, I can't speak much for other people's thought processes, but people honestly should have known that D1 lynch on Vayne in Basterd was fucking terrible. If people were listening to Marv because he's Marv on that then that's their own fault. Why should a non-vet bother trying? Do you think the current 'vets' earned their 'status' through lack of trying? No, they consistently perform in games. If the people who are complaining were/are capable of doing the same thing then it wouldn't BE an issue. Talking about it not being a problem if useful shit gets read and ignorant stuff gets ignored---Ace talked about this specifically, as did Artanis in the Obs QT. The whole problem was there WAS way too much ignorant shit going on in the thread. It's not a coincidence that 'vets' get listened to while others go ignored a lot of the time---it's because they will often be the ones who are talking about the useful shit. That's not a hard and fast rule; I've seen plenty of stupid shit from vets and smart stuff from relative unknowns, but if people aren't willing to look within the thread itself and see how people are acting and what they're talking about and instead base all of their decisions on a visible 'vet' minority then that's their problem. I don't feel I do this and since you seem to be so against it, you probably don't either. How many people in this game actively did it? Another thing to think about was how much of this huge thread was productive discussion? I'd say MAYBE 1/4. Is that a result of lack of veterans to herd the town? I don't believe so but I think it's tough to say either way. | ||

I think someone like say Stutters is generally overlooked even though he can be a valuable townie. All because he doesn't (afaik) have a huge reputation. ETA: Also from now on, now you know one of the reasons I try not to post too many reads. I've been saying for years people sheep vets even though we can be wrong. Read some games where one popular guy says "I think X is obvious Town" and watch him/her get treated as confirmed Town by most of the players. I'm torn on this because I have experienced both sides. My first few games I essentially went largely ignored much of the time. Geript knows this. Is it because I played in big normals with a lot of vets or because what I posted wasn't worth reading? Probably some combination of both to be honest. The mindset of vets v non-vets is something that took me a a few games to drop as I eventually developed the confidence to perform on equal footing to those who may have intimidated me or shouted me down previously (equal skill is another thing entirely but irrelevant to what I'm saying right now. I think I still kinda suck). The same cannot necessarily be said for everyone apparently as there are still a lot of people who actively see this divide and are either held back by it or perceive their own lack of performance to be due to such. Again, difficult to tell which it truly is as I have experienced both, and I feel it is somewhat circumstantial. Ace raises a few good points in that the game does need to be played more within the context of that specific game itself and let people prove themselves from game to game; but as we are a community and play many games with each other constantly, this becomes exceedingly difficult. Are there rules that can be set up to combat newbies entering normals and feeling beaten down by players who all know each other? Can we force meta to go ignored in any kind of game other than all-smurf types? I don't believe so. It all comes down to individual attitude and how we play ourselves. Just like SC2/LoL/DotA 2/etc have metas, TL Mafia has a meta, and the meta has relied on meta for too long. I'm personally fairly confident that I have learned not to necessarily consider a veteran's opinion more valid than someone else's, and I could probably learn to rely on other player's past games less. Others may have to do the same, but as far as newer players being beaten down or ignored is concerned, I believe the onus still falls on the players who want to be listened to. I think the current crop of newbies are going to blow a lot of people away to be honest once they start playing, and that will show that individual skill, effort, and confidence are what is required for people to listen to you in mafia. | ||

There are some 'vet' players I have seen, whether self-proclaimed or status given by others, who do a lot to perpetuate the issue by acting in certain ways in games. I'm not entirely sure how that kind of behaviour can be curbed exactly if it is found to be a contributing factor to the perceived 'vet' problems within the forum. | ||
