yes its definitely town favored probably should be no blues for town.

no, it just rewards town playing well, which we very much did.

Seriously Hiro, it's Damdred.

I'm just going to vote for Damdred.

But the mafia is Damdred, let's kill Damdred.

Cmon Hiro, mafia is Damdred.

Damdred is the scumteam.

Damdred. scum. red. damed. mafia. Damdred. Scumteam.

Let's kill Damdred.

Damdred is mafia.

Not voting anyone else until Damdred the mafia is dying.

I think last time town agreed it was a good idea to have 2 scummy people against each other.

But then townie-looking townies duelled mafia and that plan went out the window, and it turned out ok in the end.

don't care about holy/vivax.

vivax dont you think two scummy people should duel each other, rather than 1 scummy vs 1 townie?



Mafia can cause a lot of chaos in the eventuality that two scummy people duel each other. Imagine if they both were townies. You mislynch one, and they can push the idea that people on his wagon were scummy, then maybe they mislynch the other, and so on. Besides, if mafia so wants, they can simply refuse to duel, upon which somebody has to take up the task and pick one of the two.

Seems rather unrealistical. I like the idea of having one townie guy duel somebody who is scummy, it will look one sided, but it will also be one of the opportunities where either scum shows face or has to give up on their teammate, if the target was right.

Ah, right. This post.
No shit mafia is in a great spot if 2 scummy townies duel each other. But how is it better to have a towny townie duel a scummy townie? We are just reducing the odds of hitting scum and we get next to zero information out of the vote.

trust me bro. it sounds better in theory but it just isn't.

obi was clever because he added the point about people only wanting to duel ppl they think are mafia. if x and y are deemed scummiest but neither of them are each other's main scumread, then they just won't duel each other, and it won't really be scummy even if we try in vain to enforce the policy.

the only worthwhile thing is not to be a rash asshole.

marv already knows I'm town btw. He knows how awful I am at engaging people, and especially him, when I'm mafia. So whatever his alignment is, he is going to say I'm town but an idiot. I would never have put myself in this situation if I was mafia, and marv knows that. If he tries to push the idea I'm mafia, he is mafia. But he probably recognizes this if he is mafia, and will play is if he was town (ie: knows I am town but an idiot).


In all honestly this isn't necessarily true.

Like tbh, if you're mafia I wouldn't blame you for just doing a scumclaim and trolling for a bit, that might even be the best play in the situation because it stops me from doing what I'll otherwise do which is force you and I to analyze just about every person in the game. If you stop playing now as mafia, you'll leave no links to teammates and this day will be essentially wasted for information, although the end result is a mafia killed.

However if you're town, I expect you to do what you can. You have 36-ish hours to solve the game with me, let's do it.

I like you, Palmar. You're not as stupid as you look.

the problem is once town zoned out Damdred after the d2 lynch, they never resivisited him. He was just allowed to exist, doing nothing, with zero pressure applied to him.

While the dude with the longest d1 filter gets instaduelled at lylo.

What could I have done different? I gave Vivax multiple opportunities yet he just spent all his time complaining.

Stop and rething? if Vivax is mafia, why did you not get shot? Never hammer instantly in lylo bro.

Because if Vivax was mafia, I'm the only viable mislynch he could pull off?

I did stop to rethink the possibility of Damdred mafia. I think his role was true regardless of alignment and in the end I found Vivax's complaints and lack of direction more scummy than Damdred being so.

Yes I pulled the trigger as soon as dawn happened, but like the entirety of the game's reads could have been formed a full 2 cycles prior. If the first 108 hours or whatever aren't gonna do it, hows an extra 48 gonna help?


I've done exactly what you did, and it's always a terrible idea.

Step back, rethink in lylo. Read the game again as if everything you've been assuming is now wrong, and see if it fits better. Everyone fucks up like this in lylo once, the point is to take the lesson and next time give it a real shot.

Just like to reiterate this.

LYLO is a special time where things get reconsidered and the game can STILL be figured out by town even though the flow of the game seems otherwise.

my very first newbie game is a perfect example, things all turned around at lylo. You've gotta give yourself time to think and reprocess.

Respect the LYLO.

Also, me getting shot over the people doing things should've sent some red flags up to the people that were reading the kush/Damdred duel.

D basically said "Obi and Palmar are both really good" and then both of us died. My death should've been telling since anyone else would've shot Sloosh.

na i don't think so. because it could just be coincidence, and you could actually make a similar observation 10x more often and it end up being wrong.

edit: like as far as NKs go, that wasn't particularly extraordinary or noteworthy
