no flips you talk too much = you're mafia mafia generally kill people who aren't talking cop claim D3 pretty much guaranteed doctor saves himself first 2 nights 90% of the time Plus reads are flip flop depending on really little things, like repositioning your body after a night, who talked first after the night, who's sitting next to who, stuff like that | ||

I urge you think about your reads more. You had a lot of fucks to give and that is great, you just didn't apply a lot of reasons to your reads. Your heuristics were weak and you wouldn't reevaluate them. You need to get it together and remember that your reads are based on the whole game and not just what has happened in the last five minutes, you have a very irl based game which you need to get away from. You need to realize that forum mafia is very different than irl mafia. Think about soccer, did you ever play pick up games or parks and rec games? Yeah? Well have you ever played FIFA World Cup (the video game)? Think about how the rules are the same but the skill sets simply don't transfer, the way you are playing now is like if David Beckham showed up to WCG and was like "don't worry guys, I know what I'm doing" use your understanding or irl mafia to give yourself a leg up in forum mafia but keep in mind that two two games are not the same and that different skill sets apply to both. First off, I prefer sqrt. I really appreciate the fact that you coached me, and I accept the fact that forum mafia is absolutely different than irl mafia. I'm not sure if you have had to have the transition, but I'm sure there's at least one person in this forum that has, and that person should be able to tell you how big of a transition it is. Like you said, if David Beckham showed up to WCG and was like "don't worry guys, I know what I'm doing", that would mean trouble. But I've never expressed that I knew what I was doing. You have to cut me some slack. Isn't it natural to attempt to use what you have, even if it's not specifically suited to the thing? For example, skills from an fps such as TF2 won't directly transfer over to COD, but you have to try to use what you have, and then see what's wrong, what's right, what's working, what's not. This was my second game, and to say that "You need to get it together and remember that your reads are based on the whole game and not just what has happened in the last five minutes" is unfair in my opinion. | ||
