Well, I'm sure you have more thoughts than just a FoS on debears for "advocating chaos"

So, how about you present those for now.


I think "advocating chaos" is actually a good argument on its own, however....

For lurking I think it seems even more of an issue in Newbie games than regular games because too many lurkers results in mafia wins most of the time in the Newbie games I looked at. That said, if we get any confirmed mafia I'll always vote confirmed mafias over suspicious lurkers.

Btw Im a noob ...

That goes without saying. Having a confirmed scum can be hard though.. And is next to impossible day 1 (since no possible DT checks) unless there is a serious slip.

That is why policy lynches day 1 can end up being a necessity.



That said, I'm going to sleep. See you in a few hours.


What are you saying here exactly? Policy lynches are by no means a necessity. If we are confident and push reads, like dp did last game, then the scum will show. Why do you lack the confidence of catching scum d1?

You're being especially confusing right now, at least for me.

Dan basically said sure, if we have a confirmed mafia d1 (which he claims would be difficult without a major slip), lynch, otherwise it might be necessary to policy lynch. This seems reasonable.

Your statement, however, is extremely confusing. Without knowing your previous game in depth, none of what I quoted above means anything. Can you please explain more briefly/clearly "where your confidence got you"? Also, what does your previous confidence have to do with any potential scenario for a d1 lynch?



Ok this phone posting iw hard. Forgive th disorganization. Confidence has everything to do with d1. If everyone is confident and pushes cases, then scum will be forced to do the same. That is the key. We need to force scumcto contribute early
My confidence led to me making a game winning case on arguably the most townie looking player (who was the last scum)

@ "Uncle" Dan

I am of the opinion that inactive players are a good candidate for lynching. There is too much mystery involved with someone whose only contribution to the thread is nonexistent.

In regards to the noobie-card policy: I have to say that claiming inexperience is a terrible defense against any accusation. Djo in the last newbie game made several references to him being a noob (and being town), and it only served to make him seem suspicious to other players.


You are sure taking lurker policy lynch seriously. Would you explain us at which point suspicious players become better lynch candidates than inactive players ?


Djo, why did you suddenly drop this after cheesecake responded?

Also, why did you interpret his post as taking lurker policy "so seriously" when he was respondjng to a question?


@debears

The part I've bolded in Cheese's post was a comment about dandel's post you have picked on. It was not related to the part where he was answering your questions.

He didn't mention any other good candidates for lynching than inactive players so I thought he wanted to lynch based on lurker policy lynch today. But he has clarified his position since then.


Very well djo. I found the wording of seriously strong for your post.

Can you clarify why you have a sudden 180 on confidence on day 1 from your last game as town?

Rad,

I understand what you're saying. However, you are misinterpretjng my words. I'm not saying go on a tunneling spree. I'm saying have the confidence to make a case on anyone and pursue that case until you find that person town or someone else more scummy

I've realized that in my last newbie game. Not being confident led me to write wish-washy posts and it is not good for general town mentality.
Also I like DarthPunk style with his early heavy pressure. Pretty newbie scums can slip very easy, kush or not kush.

Plus I had some difficulties in my last mafia games to post properly when people where directly pressure me.


Why even think about artificial confidence though? Why is the concept of confidence even something to be considered beyond "if you're confident, push your case!" That's all confidence is good for. Artificial confidence does nothing.

I get the point of "try to be more confident in your reads" or something to that extent, but I don't understand what's good about having confidence in pushing for a d1 scum lynch instead of lynching a lurker. We should do whatever we think is best at that point, not necessarily 1 thing or the other.


Why are you so focused on lynching a lurker over a scumread right now imo lurker lynches are last resorts to scumreads. If a lurker has a scumread, that's a bonus. Why do you keep pressing this "artificial confidence" thing when newbie games are notorious for lurking (usually caused by fear/lack of confidence) and lack of confidence?

That is the statement I'm talking about. Am i missing something here? Can someone help me out?

You don't understand having confidence to pusb d1 scum reads over lurkers?

What do scum want? Easy lynchs. Who are easy lynches? Lurkers.

##Vote Rad



"If we are confident and push reads, like dp did last game, then the scum will show. Why do you lack the confidence of catching scum d1?"
First mention of the term confident
"Its not easy to be confident. I learned my mistake last game. I didn't stick to a read til the SDM case. I basically said screw it and went with it. Where did that confidence get me?"
Second, trying to enforce that being confident is a good thing
"My confidence led to me making a game winning case on arguably the most townie looking player (who was the last scum)"
Same story
"Can you clarify why you have a sudden 180 on confidence on day 1 from your last game as town?"
Someone "lacks confidence", better ask insinuating questions
"have the confidence to make a case on anyone and pursue that case until you find that person town or someone else more scummy"
Yeah, confidence!
"newbie games are notorious for lurking (usually caused by fear/lack of confidence) and lack of confidence?"
Guys, you just don't get it, be confident!





"You don't understand having confidence to pusb d1 scum reads over lurkers?

What do scum want? Easy lynchs. Who are easy lynches? Lurkers.

Actually, that's a scumslip

##Vote Rad"
Using backwards logic, followed by casting his vote, which he later withdrew without explaining
It's easy to retort: What do townies want? Active town. What doesn't contribute to an active town? Lurkers.

We never see him use the word confident again after he casts his vote

Ok. But what individually makes us stand out as scum?

I'm going to reread the thread a couple of times tonight and figure this all out.

##Unvote


No explanation, nothing, just withdraws his vote that he so casually cast.

The whole confidence thing is weird to me. He has a thematic history of posting in this thread, as if it's planned out.
If he planned it out as scum, his actions make sense. Trying to appeal to your emotions, trying to turn the word confidence into his own little buzzword.
If he planned it out as town, actually trying to help the town think critically and relentless towards possible scum, why would he vote for Rad, who has made decent points and questioned people?

Let me ask everyone this: Who is more likely to plan out how they will behave day 1, town or scum?

God I was even more tryhard back then, and immediately got myself modkilled for sending a pm to Rad cause I thought it was allowed. Sadface
Look at all that red I used. Clearly I was right
