Why would you not have an opinion of if the leader should not pick themselves in any situation? I find it hard to believe tbh. I think the leader should ALWAYS pick themselves. Sitting yourself out of a team is like self-voting for a lynch imo. If you know you are of the resistance, you should absolutely be going in your mind. Unless the game has been trivialized because the spies derped and all 3 sabotage the first mission, I think the leader is always going to have a spot on the team. I would vote no on any team that didnt include the current leader for this reason, regardless of what town sentiment was at that time. | ||

In Resistance 2 I picked BH and VE, two really town seeming guys (I think we even had 2/3 of the scumteam at that point), but I wasn't trustworthy so Sent-BH-VE got rejected. I don't think there's anything scummy about picking 3 people everyone or almost everyone thinks is town, even if you're not one of those 3. Lets suppose at least 1 of those 3 go on to fail a mission. Are you, as leader, culpable in the failure? | ||

So you look at the leaders motivations for sending each person on the team. but now, you've coerced a player into doing "town's" bidding without having a clear view of his motive. I find that the vote mechanics serve to control how you view players much better than forcing the teams that people want to see. Since we have up to 5 opportunities to get this done each round, I'd rather be confident in my read of the leader (and subsequently his selected companions) than have to second guess his motives down the road. I'm not saying that each round is going to slam-dunk. I think that the consideration should FOLLOW the team being selected when people vote on it, and the leader should be playing to their optimal scenario. | ||

I guess optimally would be the team that best fulfills the conditions where the members are all town and Vote consensus=Yay. You have more control over the team selected and less control over the vote consensus. If we're talking in absolutes, then yes - if I know a team with me in it will be rejected, I shouldnt put it up there. However, I am very hesitant to believe the game will get to the point where I assume everyone thinks I am a spy. | ||

I don't like the way you've reasoned to have me sit out. When talking about me, the assumption and followup thoughts are about a sabotaged mission. With rayn, you focus on a successful mission, and use the 'what if we fail' scenario to show how you can make yourself super duper townie by catching rayn. I didn't even get a glimmer of hope. That's a pretty hard-ass stance to take against me considering how little your reasoning takes into account my play this game. Why do you assume I will neglect to explain myself? I don't need to be verbose, I need to be transparent. You don't seem to see any value in me as a player based on your reasoning. I dislike that very much, I didn't know how little you thought of me. | ||

You seem predisposed to the condition that I am going to lurk, and that is a fair assumption since I do it all the time. Since this game has no lynch or death mechanic to deal with lurkers, how do you propose people get concrete information about me? By your own reasoning, players like VE and rayn are going to be able to demonstrate their township through activity and leadership. The mission are a very weak cop-check and could serve to give more information on harder to read players so that the strong/vocal players can develop stronger reads. | ||

But because I doubt that anybody can prove himself 100% town I suggest that the most active people/most respected people go on the first mission. Reasons have been stated. Why I do not want liabilities to go on a Mission 1. Let's say we send Chairman Ray/[UoN]Sentinel/Hopeless on Mission 1 and it fails. What will you do then? One of those is scum but all 3 will probably(?) not have the biggest filter and shit is hard when there are no flips. But then you have your townleaders with the biggest filters (aka rayn/VE/Koshi/...) that don't really know who to trust and what to do. It's not optimal. Let's say that we send rayn/VE/Cora and mission succeeds. Then I know for a fact that 50% of all the post on Day 2 will be made by townies. For a fact. So easy. So nice. That doesnt solve the liabilities. I'm also not suggesting we send a team of 3 tossups, I'm suggesting we send 1 liability to gather information on them since they are unlikely to provide it themselves. As an aside, you do NOT know for a fact that a successful team is 100% town. | ||

Something about how he's trying to convert mafia knowledge to resistance knowledge and his appealing to veterans to guide the way for us made me think he had an idea of a plan that would push town in the right direction, even if he had nothing to do with finding that right direction. On December 30 2013 05:50 raynpelikoneet wrote: Since you ninja'd me Hopeless, i see you disagree with me on Cora, so, what exactly is your read on Cora and why? There were points against koshi about how he wasnt trying to discern alignments. Cora is doing the same thing with Koshi, but worse, he's actively discrediting him. Koshi was assuming I just wouldnt post much and that sending me on a mission was a losing endeavor because even if we succeed you get little benefit from having me "confirmed" since I wouldn't do much with it. Cora is telling people to ignore Koshi because he's trolling too much and wont allow him a word in edgewise. On December 30 2013 06:10 [UoN]Sentinel wrote: I for one remain unconvinced there was any scumslip there. I think koshi is more likely to be town for thinking its a scumslip though, regardless of if there really is one. @Rayn's question from list post Hopeless one question, why did you yay-vote Adam's team as he was null for you? Probably a similar reason that Koshi was willing to consider Yay'ing VE's team if he commited to a townread on you: It was worth risking a failed mission to "confirm" a spy. In my case, Adam was a statistical tossup as first leader. I looked at his suggesting-a-team post and thought it was more likely he was town than scum, but in the same breath second guessed myself into calling him null. I think I have a good read on you. If we failed our mission, I'd be convinced Adam was the spy. That information is worth the failed early mission to me. | ||

The OMGUS is strong with this one. I didn't overlook shit with koshi. I have him as town despite his poor reasoning and his superficial attack on me. My scum read on you is not solely based on koshi association. I never said you're only +1ing. I said the +1 to me being town was scummy. Get wrecked. [Hr] VE you never brought up any reservations on me or rayn regarding why Adams team failed. Nor did you try to gauge reactions to your team before it was LOCKED in for your turn as leader. Very passive play bordering on foolish. Adam nayed himself to allow us more room for discussion. You just narrowed that discussion to your team for no reason almost immediately. That's not cool at all, I think its scummy. | ||

The mentality behind these Yay's is so fucking scummy my eyes hurt. VE is leader, his opinion is known. The vote is of little consequence as far as "getting information" until VE decides to tell us hes team was a joke for reasons such as outing the scum team huehue bullshit. Rayn doesnt want to give spies "the right answer" and is holding his vote accordingly. Good for rayn. Auto-veto'ing Koshi is just fine. If you can find compelling reasons to consider VE and Sent town, fine, pass it. However, do not pass this team just to spite Koshi. That's hands down the stupidest reason I've seen to vote Yay so far. | ||

Not sure if he's referring to someone yay voting a team they're not on, or yay voting 6 unique players, but just in case it's the former, it doesn't hurt to reiterate. I've seen town players downvote a team based off that illusion of safe play before, and although it's pretty much mandatory of mission 5, you don't wanna do it on mission 2. Grack is calling you scum because of the latter case. We're gonna need some more wisdom out of you. | ||

Like saying he would nayvote regardless the first team was and saying that the team already passed while a couple people still had to vote. Kinda makes him look like he is in the dark. I had not changed my mind, I was feeling out whether people would approve a team of you-me-cora since the existing team was on the cusp of being passed, and we needed to find another townie.

On your reasoning for Cora, the fact that his behavior, posting etc, especially in regards to him banging the Hopeless=scum drum make me read him as town. Explaining this read is insulting to Cora and I don't want to incite any further flaming, so here's hoping that would suffice as an explanation. I concluded koshi is the spy because you are not the spy, I am not the spy and the mission failed. Lets suppose I am the spy, there's no chance I can paint you red.

In my opinion, Hopeless saw that this team was all-town and he needed a decent reason to oppose it. Now that this team failed, he immediately blamed Koshi without analyzing any of Koshi's posts or anything else. He doesn't even open up the possibility that Rayn could be scum. This would make sense from a scum perspective because if I was in scum Hopeless' position, I would attack the weakest target. It would be hard to fake a case on Rayn because he would tear things apart. After saying Koshi is scum, he has not said anything to back it up. It's pretty obvious. And now that the team I was on failed, I've immediately said that the team I downvoted is probably all-town and needs to go today. | ||

I thought koshi was town, so I voted yes on the team. Then it failed. Ergo Rayn or Koshi (yes, or me, kthx) is scum. Rayn is not scum because have you read his filter recently? If thats scum rayn I don't want to win this game, he's fucking earned it. Ergo Koshi is scum. | ||

So is Adam scum or not? Clearly koshi knows Adam is scum and is beating around the bush to make filter noise However, I think that if Adam is scum with either Hopeless/rayn he would yay the team. There are still a lot of plays you can do when you bring 2 scummers. 1 could play weak and the other could get towncred because there is a confirmed scummer on the trip. Or you could not sabotage the mission and you suddenly got 2 scummers with a lot of towncred for mission 2/3. I am not really convinced by Adam scum atm but I wouldn't take him on next mission. Hopeless I got as 100% scum atm. Last team he suggested he "tries" to nail the 4 town that were left out of Mission 1. While he is screaming he got me pinned as scum. silly guy. So then...if I am "trying" what does that mean? I know who the 4 town are? Or is there a scummer hidden in there. From a town point of view, you think I'm scum, wouldn't you extend that to think I'm trying to protect my team and figure out why? 2) 2 scum left besides Hopeless is quite annoying. OMG there are 3 spies just like the OP says. I'm so sad, wah wah cry some more We need to select 4 townies which means that out the remaining 5 there are 2 townies and 3 scummers left. what what whaaat? Kinda insane that you need to do that while it is the basic of mafia that mafia is with less because they can work together to influence the thread. The first stage of the game is so important and that is kind of strange because early stage is favorable for scum. Many words to say that I don't know. There are 0 reasons for me to believe VE is town. While there are 2 at least to think he is scum. 1) His lies around his nayvote. 2) Not being an influence in this game at all. Cora? I don't know. It was obvious I was going to take Hopeless. If I wasn't so obvious I would say Cora town and a good bet to take. But now? It's all a bit strange. I explained it in a previous post. But Cora/VE/Hopeless? Then I am stuck with 5 other names that I am not really sure about. rayn town. (after all that hypothetical rayn/hopeless scum with adam Grack town. CR town. Sentinel town. Coag joker? If I put myself out of the picture I am left with 5 townies and 3 scummers and I need to find 4 townies out of that. I I would use random.org I would have 5/8*4/7*3/6 = 18% chance to be right (if my math is correct). Knowing that I am mostly way more wrong than randomming I am pretty fucking sad atm. tldr: mafia depression inc. [/QUOTE] | ||

Starting under this line. ______________________________________________ I'm gonna be really sad if this childish behavior manages to come from town. CR's massive post makes a reasonable amount of sense, but rather than being a fully objective piece, he is managing to push agenda while leaving out or ignoring certain scenarios. In particular, no matter what happened after our votes, one of Coag and I are scum, and whats more, CR is now confirmed town because he voted yay when it no longer mattered On January 06 2014 07:36 Chairman Ray wrote: **SNIP** We also have to confirm that I am town as well because I was the only other person from outside the mission to reject it. If this mission fails, there is no more room for information gathering, and we have to send all town for the mission, so I absolutely have to go on the mission. Out of the people in the mission, I feel most comfortable with rayn since he's playing most consistently good town plays, so I want him on the next mission as well. So my recommendations for the next mission: -Chairman Ray -Koshi -Rayn -??? @red: No. Hell the fuck no. For a guy who just laid out all the game theory behind every decision making process this is the biggest red flag in this game. CR is scum I guaran-fucking-tee it. Thats the scumteam. Moderate chance that Sentinel is scum, but I'm calling that the scumteam. In any case, I still have 5 other players to choose from that arent those 4. I'm putting myself on the team, because we all know my preference as far as leader always goes on the mission. You're all going to downvote it, and then maybe Cora will put up a team worth watching. For the love of god make CR post his essays of reads that he promised he had. I don't care if they are finished, I care that they exist ##Propose: Hopeless1der, Corazon, VisceraEyes, Coagulation | ||

In theory you're scum. more of that later though. I have to put Koshi in the mission, and if Koshi turns out to be spy, the fault lies in those who threw the game for town. Koshi and I are in. Well if this is the case, I'd like to apologize to the rest of the town for throwing the game. So sorry. Firstly let's look at the second group. Hopeless has been confirmed as spy on multiple occasions. Break this down for me again please. Hopeless - guaranteed Sentinel - high These likelihoods have been swapped. We still need to find the spy from within mission 2. It isn't rayn, I'm sorry for accusing you it just made the most sense with CR coming in and spouting off "look at all these confirmed townies" when that was patently false.

I have an essay full of reads right now, and one of my stronger ones is that Adam and Hopeless are spies together. We arrived to the same conclusion for different reasons. I'm not yet sold on Grack yet, but he's a possibility. Which btw, are we ever going to see this essay CR? I guess I have little cause to doubt you anymore, but for fucks sake... That leaves me as the only player who is capable of (correctly) believing that either rayn or koshi (or both, though unlikely) is scum. Sentinel is almost confirmed scum, or he "threw" the game harder than I did, so I can take solace in that fact I guess (sorry sent). Rayn gives too many fucks for me to call him scum anymore. As usual, if he's pulling one over on us, he's earned it. Koshi is scum. Until or unless you are willing to see that I could be town, nothing I say is going to be more than the desperate ramblings of a madman at the end of his rope. I am 99.9% confirmation biased against him with 0.01% going towards "but what if it WAS rayn". Should I even bother trying to build a case knowing that I'm going to try to paint him as scummy as I possibly can? I don't need to go on the mission, but Koshi cannot be allowed to go either or the game is over. Full stop. Close the thread and start playing the blame game on me and possibly coag.

This game would not exist if it was not balanced enough. I agree scum need to fuck up to lose. They have fucked up. Sentinel thought there is 7 town. Noone makes that kinda logical mistake as town. If someone does then it's their fault. Hopeless did - after that - call three other people scum. That is the next closest thing to a scumclaim. If he does that as fucking town then it's his fault. This is the information we have and this is the information we need to work with. Because there are no flips. If even one of those guys is town then fuck it, but townies should not fuck up like that because this game is literally based on those kinda analysis!! It's that simple, they are scum, and now we have 7 people where we need to find 1 scum, or rather find 2 people where there is 1 scum so we can have 5 townies on mission 4 and 5. Its frustrating that I am expected to play perfectly when I've never played in a forum setting nor did I claim to be particularly good at resistance, just that I understood the mechanics. CR used my whole "leader should always go" to call me scum because obviously I should know better. Guess what, I dont and Im bad. Gratz on dem scumhunting skillz. | ||

For right now we only need 4 and then the same 4 +anyone can go next mission since it's trivial if we pass this one. | ||
