D E A B C This is because we want put off C and B, which contain high activity players, to the end. We want informed and loud players guiding the lynches as long as possible. D is most likely to be awful with mtamburini and 2 smurfs, and E is only marginally better, but I trust 27nb to put out some decent posting levels. I'm not as familiar with rito and batsnacks, but I carry some weight so my group will be third, and C and B with the heavy hitters who can lead a town for 4-5 lynches will be last where they belong. TL/DR vote me if you wand DEABC order, it's the best because it keeps the players who are noteworthy for their ability to lead towns (marv is the best example of this) alive for as long as possible. Bear in mind that scum will want us to go through the groups that have potentially valuable townies in them first, since once a cell is done it's all over A vote for BH is a vote for DEABC | ||

Only one person per group is mafia, so I don't see the problem. Even if Marv is mafia it's not like there's any chance he'd be lynched if his group went first ANYWAYS. The only way scum marv would get lynched is if his group went last and people had time to figure out his alignment. Look, In every game, scum always wants to shoot marv right away cause that's how dangeorus he is. if you really think that he shouldn't be in the very last group, that's your own prerogative, but I'm not convinced just based on "well, marv could be mafia", which is a statement that could be applied to anyone. | ||

So let me ask you this - which groups do you think are likely to be the easiest to read? The hardest? This is a valid point. I expect the smurf group to be hard to read regardless, whether it goes first or last. Honestly, given that we could potentially lose after the third lynch, which group goes 4th vs which group goes 5th is potentially irrelevant. The important thing is, I don't want me, marv, wos, or HF to be in the front 2 groups. I'd like all of us to be alive when we're tlaking about who to lynch out of the third group, because I think that having certain town organizers alive at the first potential LYLO is good. I would be surprised if group D or E improved iwth time and became more legible. They're liabilities regardless, and honestly, if we're gonna mislynch into those two groups and one other group, the order doesn't matter, except that if we put them first we lose a little faster. The ADVANTAGE of putting them first is that our strong players get to live longer, and either lead the town, or prove themselves town. A guy like me or marv, when playing scum, never gets caught D1 or D2. Even in the event a vet I'm tlaking about here is scum, it's still better to put them later because we'd never catch them unless we had time to hear them talk more. it's a good point though. | ||

B for more risks and E being the most risky group to lynch into. I haven't read the thread, because none of you worms are close enough to my level to merit my attention, and today is a lynch day. However, this statement intrigues me. Why do we have a guaranteed scum lynch in C? | ||

But, even under that approach isn't it beneficial to put Cell C before D5? That way at least there's some indication as to the authenticity of marv's reads. You mean something like DEACB? It's plausible, and I would not be opposed to it. Why don't you run on the DEACB platform, and I'll run on DEABC, and I promise to throw my votes your way if you're ahead of me close to the deadline (and vice versa) so that a DEA B/C order wins? | ||

A literally dont have as high of a chance. We don't need a 3 - 0 scum sweep. 3-1 is at least less embarrassing. 3-1 and 3-0 are both the same, which is a loss. I don't give a shit how we lose if we lose, I care about maximizing our chance to win. There's no honor or sportsmanship or bullshit like that in mafia, only winning and losing. The sooner you learn that the sooner you'll be good at this game like me. | ||

look, all this idea of ordering which groups are easy and which are hard is bullshit. If we're gonna mislynch 3 times, we're gonna mislynch 3 times regardless of the order, unless we optimize our order for who stays alive the longest and which groups will become more readable with time The idea of putting a group in the back because it's hard to read isn't sensible, you only do this if you expect the group to become easier to read over time, or you want to preserve those voices to be around for a long time. NRHF's order would have marv, wos, hf, and me all silent during days 4 and 5. sure, it's possible it's irrelevant either way, and we'll win or lose after only 3 days, but the point remains. You guys are all thinking about this SO wrongly it HURTS. Don't order groups based on how easy it is to read them, or how likely we are to get a town or scum lynch, order them on which groups would benefit (ie it would be easier to find scum in them) from more time, and which voices you want to keep alive for a long time. If Marv is scum, we want him alive for 5 days so we can figure him out, and if he's town, we want him alive for 5 days so he can figure out the game. DO NOT OPTIMIZE FOR FRONTLOADING EASY LYNCHES. Instead, frontload lynches that will not benefit from the people being alive multiple days. Smurfs and low-activity players don't get more legible as time goes on. Marv? WoS? HF? Me? Do. We're the leaders. Put us in the back. Sheesh. It's like nobody here even thinks remotely rationally about what setup is the best. I know you guys have critical thinking skills. You play mafia, you must. USE them. | ||

the fact of the matter is, in pregame I wasn't really apyint attention and wrote a post that seems ok on its surface, but when you pay attention is obviously false then when the game starts and it's important to actually win, i figure out the optimal strategy and tell you nitwits to use it, and somehow that's scummy if you want to lynch me for that, I am ocmpetely ok with that. I will do nothing. lync me lynch me for figuring out a good strategy you can apologize to me in the post game | ||

Funnily enough, you never proffered a sliver of advice on who is mafia, whether it be from your group or the game. "you know i am right" right about what? You've not said anything to be right about. That's the problem. Sorry, I'm moving to a new place this weekend and am like busy for the past 24 hours and the next 24 hours. You'll note, for example, that I didn't even vote in the mayoral election. Yup, this is an IRL excuse, but it also happens to be true. I know nothing about batsnacks and ritoky and haven't read their filters so I have no information to offer about them. Sorry! | ||

You guys are hideously awful. Also people saying they have hard evidence on me is utterly laughable. Like, the fact that I had one idea in pre game, then when the game started I came up with a better idea that contradicted the first makes me scum? What a stretch. | ||

also read the damn post you linked from yoso, you call that giving up?? http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/448443-you-only-shoot-once-mafia?page=60#1199 as a final note, this is normally where the player defending himself swears on his honor that he's town and not making his IRL excuse up. I have no honor, so such a promise from me is meaningless. I can swear this though: on my honor as a dude who's willing to lie and make up IRL excuses, there's no way in hell I'd make this up as scum when I could make up something much better on my honor as an unscrupulous player, I would never go with such an inconvenient story as scum. this story is the truth | ||

Other players have mentioned the inconsistencies and scumminess of his list/excel post and his followup, so I won't rehash that. Honestly, I'm completely sure batsnacks is scum, and I will do what it takes to prove that. We're not lynching me today. Not while I have a say in it.

At the start of the day, like a million people vote me, including batsnacks, and he doesn't try to ask me questions, pressure me, or even mention ritoky. The first time he does this is about 24 hours ago (link). He makes a lot of posts, conversationally, and he's not afraid to step on toes, but they're all like this (link) or like this (link). I would consider batsnacks' early contributions during this day to be basically the same as mine: nonexistent. He certainly makes a lot of posts, but none with real meaning. Then, only after he comes under some pressure, he coughts up this hairball: (link) while at the same time trying to downplay his earlier play and focus you guys on his most recent play, so you think he's active. | ||

Look, if he was literally not posting, that wouldn't be flying under the radar, people would notice that. In a game of mafia, to not attract attention, you have to make posts. And if you're batsnacks, who's generally a caustic player, you don't make a bunch of milquetoast posts. How else would batsnacks try to avoid attention than what he's doing now?

basically, 27nb started off by voting ritoky "jokingly" (link), then when batsnacks was in danger as a counterwagon to me, she moved her vote to me from ritoky. What this looks like to me (you can let me know if this makes sense to you ritoky) is that 27nb was trying to protect her scumbuddy batsnacks by throwing away her vote on ritoky. Once it became clear there was a counterwagon, in fact, the instant things get tied up at 5-5, 27nb suddenly decides that she wants to be relevant and votes me for unclear reasons. so basically she's bailing out batsnacks instead of opting out of the discourse by voting you. | ||

Could you look over them and answer some of the things you haven't answered yet for me? Also BH any other reads on the other cells yet? Sure, I'll respond. Besides the 27nb read I'm still working. I'm focusing on they next two cells. | ||

As scum, if you do something like make a colored bunch of cells or whatever like ritoky did (ie, mostly out of the blue, serious, not tongue in cheek or trolling, not copying someone), and try to play it straight, you pay a lot of attention to how you do it. You are trying not to scumslip, trying not to get lynched, etc. You pay attention to details. You're serious about it, or, you're obviously trolling about it and trying to throw town off. Ritoky was neither of these. he was serious about the contents and his analysis, but he was lightheartedly swapping the colors around and stuff as people pointed out problems (problems a scum player would hide to avoid scumslipping, a scum player would always proofread). Ritoky wasn't stressed, he was playful. This is not how a scum player would be in this situation. RE the batsnacks scumread, basically beyond what I've already said about his usefulness and fake usefulness, he isn't feeling what I'm feeling, which is a need to leave behind reads for the rest of the game. If he's scum, his goals end with this lynch. He just wants to lynch me or ritoky. If he's town, the game continues and his reads will be important (rather than ignored). He's not trying to develop them or leave behind a legacy. He's just yelling at people and being an ass and not contributing. | ||

Technically he could just be wrong about me if by some weird situation ritoky was scum, which isn't something you should rule out so casually given what you've said about ritoky. I don't think ritoky is scum though, you're scum. | ||

It's clearly not damdred, but I'm having trouble pinning down which of NRHF or YM would be scum. I like NRHF for his reason for voting batsnacks, which seems consistent with "trying to catch scum", I guess, especially when he could have saved on me. I can't think of a better case on YM than "he isn't really posting" though, and I know that won't convince anyone. He evin remains consistent on whether or not my plan as mayor was good | ||

I am reasonably sure that he's just not [i]really[/] aware that I've been moving, and he also hasn't posted since I responded to his question. He seems worried about a dogpile on bats but of course was not there in the moment for the massive dogpile on me. It's quite different to read filters and to play the game. In any case, just by asking me questions, following up, and taking a stance, he's done much more to show he's trying to solve the game than his other two cellmates. I don't like it, and he's wrong, but that doesn't make him scum. | ||

I'm interested in this because he seemed more persuaded by the pregame-ingame inconsistency with your cell ordering. Absolutely, I'll look into him right now. Immediately springing to mind are his inconsistencies about why he's voting or not voting me, so I'll read his filter. | ||

For D, my chief recommendation is "don't lynch damdred". The other two players need to be put under pressure, in my opinion starting right away so that by the time D rolls around there's something to talk about. As I said before, I don't have high hopes for D, but if it's in position 3 we might as well try to make the best of it. For B, I would be surprised if HF was scum. I feel like he could have just left his vote on me and complained about me a lot and gotten me lynched, but he didn't. So I'm gonna actually say WoS is town here because of his back-and-forth on me, I think he's too calculating on scum to swap his vote around like that. He was actually changing his mind. I don't like marv this game. I don't trust him. if he's voting on me cause he thinks I'm scum, where's the usual marv bluster? I'm glad his group was put on the last slot. if he refuses to lead, push him into a leadership position. Marv not leading isn't a scumtell, it's how he leads. There is no follower marv. | ||

I would never intentionally sabotage myself as town to help my scumgame, or vice versa. That's the whole point of my horrible IRL lies-- most people are willing to use IRL as town but not make up IRL as scum; they sabotage their scumgame to help their towngame. They have actions they're willing to take, but not to fake. I have transcended those foolish limitations. The whole point of me making IRL shit up is that I would never sabotage my play or hold anything back, ever, just because of some stupid idea of "there's some stuff you don't lie about" that's not in the rules. I'm not saying I'd never use IRL lies as town; I'd gladly use them if I saw it to be to my advantage to do so. I'd do it in a heartbeat, in an instant, if I thought it would help me win. If you think I'd ever sabotage my towngame to help my scumgame, though, you're wrong, you're as wrong as the people who would think I'd ever sabotage my scumgame to help my towngame by not using IRL lies. | ||
