Don't get me wrong it's refreshing, but is it towny? I don't recall you doing it last game, although you were getting beaten quite hard (not by abuse) by almost everyone so I guess all you really had time for was defending yourself. Needless to say, I have my eyes on you. lilwade, lilwade, wherefore art thou, lilwade?! On the mountain tonight? How can I follow you if there's no footprint to be seen? Superbia! My name isn't evil at all. Hell is a Swedish surname and does not mean the counterpart of "heaven". Just fyi. I do however agree that abuse is bang out of order! We'll just have to wait and see what he's got to hit us with. May I also suggest that we all give reads in Bang, Marry, Kill format? It's something I started on DailyMafia and will continue here, whether you like it or not ;D 1. This seems pretty fucking hard to go against a typical opening post. Especially weird since you later call out Barakos on his light push on my opening post. What's up Jenny? Not liking this, even though you know meat² and will probably look upon him differently than you would look upon others. -1 On August 26 2014 12:10 meatpudding wrote: OOC: This is my 3rd mafia game (of all time and here on TL).

You just have to pick which one suits you best. Is it meatpouch or is it meatpurge? It's hard to say exactly what his towngame is, for me, because all that happened was that he was being harassed and had to defend himself. He wasn't very active during the day and I guess a lot of people wanted to go for the "safelynch" so to speak. Sadly enough he was one of the two wagons we had, and he sadly ended up being town. He was put in a very awkward situation with only a couple of hours to try to sway everyone elses votes. He tried to bring up some scummy things other people had done during the day, as his defense, which ended up with him looking as though he was defending both the people on the chopping block. I don't necessarily think, now afterwards, that it was truly intended but it is what it is. The other guy was lynched and in the night I went through the entire topic again and did some major calculations(1+1=2) and realized that way too many were going on him. He was probably town. I voiced my opinion and was killed during that first night. First mafia game, first to get killed by mafia.. Rudeness! I guess I have myself to blame for being too towny. Everyone read me town that game and I had 2 people who was ride or die with me. I'll let you know though, if anything out of the ordinary, based on what I've seen, shows up in meatpickle's posts. Just like I did with his sudden interest in flavouring it up. meatproud: Flattery will get you a long way, but not far enough to be my beloved spouse. You will have to work much harder than that. 1. Willingly gives insight into their last game. A person with a wider agenda (e.g. scum) may just have referred me to the thread. However, seems like an easy thing for scum to elaborate on regardless. +0.5 2. Being too towny is almost never a bad thing, in my opinion.

The bang marry kill works a bit like this: Bang - someone you think is town or leaning town, so you'd be willing to engage in a 1 time goodtime, giggity, and then they will have to keep prove themselves if they want to keep getting it. Marry - This is your number 1. Your top town, the one you are willing to go to the end with. Ofc, like irl you can apply for a divorce should a skeleton come out of the closet. But this is to signify who you want to align yourself with during the game. Kill - This one should be obv. Everyone who isn't a bang or a marry ends up in this category. If you want to can make a kill list of who should be dead first, and the others will have to lick your dirty boots to get back on your good side. Hopefully that will make people see now how I do it, and feel free to do it yourselves if you want to. Also, if you find someone you don't want to hookup with and also don't really feel like killing, I guess you could add a null area for those that do nothing for you. But try to not make that one too large, because it's really difficult for us other townies to discern those kinds of reads. Gobblegobblegobble, welcome my fair maiden. God will not save us here, we will have to take matters into our own hands and solve this puzzle the best way we know how! Kill people and search their pockets for wicked dust that have turned those ugly faces into a beautiful facade. Good clarification, even though easy to do, still willing to clarify.

We need to sing with all the voices of the mountains! My thoughts so far aren't many, but here we go. 1. I hope for more activity! This is painfully slow. But I'm assuming it's odd hours at all places of the world so just hold on nor necessarily super tight, because it's not needed right now, and enjoy the sloooooooooooooooow snail ride to town victory! 2. meatpatty is currently being different than what you and I are used to, lilwade, based on the last game. So I'm keeping my eyes on him. 3. Barakos crashes in and slams a good one on superbia. However, I didn't really like it. I like that he's aware of what happened in the last newbie game, because it shows some sort of interest and effort in wanting enough pre-info to be able to read the game correctly. Which probably also mean he is willing to filter dive us all from previous games, and that can only be a good thing. Now to the fact that I didn't really like what he said. Superbia was first to post and the startups are always trolly and odd. He made a similar joke as someone else did last newbie game with me and DC being scummy because of our names. Low and behold, it's not something you can read anyone from. Therefore, I don't think that Barakos can nor should read too much in to #1 post made in day 1, nor should he focus on peoples forum handles being scummy. That said, I don't think he is, or at least hope he isn't. Time will tell! 4. Some of you have made me sing already which is lovely.. But let's not make this into a claim-fest because it may out good roles and help hide scum. 5. I also appreciated that Superbia came out and asked what a typical town read on meatpillow would be. I would suggest he filter dives meatpole's previous games to get a better knowledge himself. 1. Agree, but most people will openly agree with this, regardless of alignment. Isn't it easy to say "uhuh, more activity please!"? 2. Good. ![]() 3. Already commented on this at an earlier point in this post, scroll up! Also, someone made a joke very similar to mine? I'm a fraud. ![]() 4 (or 5?). Maybe at a later point, I'm expecting starting players to change up their game quite a bit over the course of multiple games (as will I, more than likely!).

I tried to call the hounds off, but noone listened to me, even though I was killed. You are correct though that it is easier to scum hunt if people are being active, because you have more to go from. The same way it's also easier to read people town that way. Let's just hope the activity picks up. Who knows, we might be riding Turbo soon enough! (Sorry Disney for bringing in Pixar references!) 1. I like your confidence Jenny-chan, but I prefer relevant active activity from all people! We haven't had a lot of activity yet. 2. Scummy reference. Careful now!

Seems like timezones are quite an issue in this game, as the voting was very close and in the end the less fortunate time for me was voted in, and due to this the phases change at *drumroll* 4 am for me. Which is awesome [spoiler]not really[/spoiler] Hopefully the reason that a few people have not posted yet is the timezones, as it sucks quite hard if people have to be replaced early on due to inactivity.. I have read quite a lot through the previous newbie game, though not the first days (when Jenny was still alive). I might have to look more into it later. I also want to note that I am usually quite vocal in my games and like to push people who I find suspicious. (Push hard if the regular pushes have no effect on getting a reaction from the person in question.) I want to start this all off with a few simple questions for you guys - What alignment did you get?(town or scum) What were you hoping to get? What do you think of the Lynch all Lurkers and Lynch all Liars policies? 1. Alright. 2. Keeping you to that promise! 3. Don't like this, feels like a preface for possible shitty (i.e. scummy) play. -0.5 4. Ooh! General questions that anyone can ask! I'll answer honestly, honestly! I got the towniest townie of the town alignment! Good for me, because that's what I wanted as well! I'm up for lynching any lurkers/inactives so we can tyrannically encourage activity!

Let us cleanse the world of wickedness shall we? So there's been some activity while I was asleep and even though I mostly got some town vibes I'm a little weary about you JennyHell. You're being active a lot and that's great for reads but when you said that you were killed night 1 for being to towny I immediately thought why would he put himself out there so much once more. Wouldn't he be a little more lurky at least day one? (not necessarily completely silent but it's undeniable that the attention is on you right now). Maybe it's just my inexperience with forum mafia speaking but I'm not sure how comfortable I am with the disproportion between how much you've spoken and how many reads you gave. Three if you count the Superbia appreciation but I don't think I see that as a solid read. You did give mostly your scum reads which I think as mafia you would have tried to get people to like you instead of pressing them so that's why you're still in my princess circle.I do want to hear from you day 2 because I feel like if you are town you are being a valuable princess to have and if you are mafia it's good that you talk a lot so we can see the wickedness inside your heart. As think as the day goes on we can find better lynches. I did like Superbia's inquiry in regards to meatpalm's playstyle and by extension I didn't like Barakos attacking him. It's still pretty early in the day and my reads right now haven't got much heft to them. I'm looking forward to see more people talk though. 1. Alright, I want to address this: being lynched as VT is not a bad thing, it means you've kept the heat off of the town role. No such thing as too townie (though I guess it can depend on your playstyle). Please keep being active and (quite possibly) townie, Jenny! Furthermore, not sure what to think of this read. It raises a few flags, which I will elaborate on if these damn flags keep showing their flaggy scumfaces! -0.5 2. She didn't scum-read a lot from what I can tell. just a push on meatloaf for something most possibly benign. I do agree with the rest of the post, however. 3. Baaaah! On August 26 2014 16:51 JennyHell wrote: Hello darling, I see you've come in and hit us with some questions. I will approach those soon enough, but let me start with punching you back. You said you've read quite a lot of the previous newbie game, but not the first days. Was it someone in particular you were trying to get info on by doing that? Because only 3 of the people from the previous game is currently playing and if you say "Not the first days" dayS, means more than 1 right? I died n1, and meatpicture was lynched d2, so the only one you could possibly have seen that might be benificial for this game is lilwade. I'd defo urge you to read day 1 and 2 as well, otherwise your dive into the previous game is almost completely fruitless. Just fyi. Now to your questions, although I can see why someone would make such a play, I'm not a huge fan of it. Too easy for scum to hide. But I'll indulge you. Else you might just hit me again. I am top town, yay me! Couldn't care less if I was mafia or town. I like the game in general and don't care which side of the spectrum I am on. The policies all depend on who fall under those categories. I prefer to try to read people based on what they have given, rather than come out of the bat and just get rid of the stragglers. Some people are bound to do less than others, and it's not necessarily indicative of either a mafia or town alignment. Killing all liars? You know it's a game of lies a deceit right? And there might be moments where town will have to go out of their way and say things that may not be 100% truthful, in order to save their asses from people being wrong, yeah? Or mafia pushing on them and getting town on the wrong path. I hope that gave you the insight you were looking for. Again, just to remind you, read day 1 and 2 in the last newbie game. I like this post! 1. There's a lot of focus on a mafia game that isn't this one! I'm not sure how good this is. How nice of you to direct the abuser to the correct days, though! Very gentleprincessly. +0.5 2. Alright. 3. Most agreeing of agreements. On August 26 2014 16:55 MihZaaa wrote: To answer your questions abuse: Nobody will answer scum and even if they do, a little bit of trolling I don't think is alignment indicative, if anything it gives me more town vibes. Was hoping to get a power roll of some sort because sometimes defending yourself as vanilla town can be very frustrating when you don't convince people that have gotten fixated on you. I don't like lynch all lurkers, I prefer don't play with the lurker next game. Some times especially in newbie games vt will lurk and mislynching is not worth it just to be righteous. As to lynch all liars, i do like it when for example when people claim roles to protect the real ones but those are very rare occasions so even though i wouldn't bilindly lynch a liar I sure would keep an eye on him and have him in my scum side. I'll have to go now for up to 5 hours but I will resume as soon as i get back home. 1. Nothing is better than anything! Or wait! No! Anything is better than nothing! Right?! (Let the princess do his thing, the more interactions the better!) 2. And here I thought I was prideful! Wanting a power role so it's easier not to die during lynches.

Whether I am mafia or town I would still play the exact same way, or at least try to, so that in the off chance I would get mafia in a game in the future it'll be easier for me to seem towny. I like that you are being wary of me. I am not confirmed to anyone but myself, but that said, I am a good ally to have in this world where wickedness have taken over. We need to banish it once and for all and save all of disneytopia! Alright.

On August 26 2014 17:02 meatpudding wrote: Firstly, I am very wary of those who ask general questions, without providing their own answers first. Same goes for Jenny's MBK list, although I think it's way too early for that. At this point I think anyone could be a wicked one, and I'm not about to start trusting a single person until the day goes on. Of Lynch all Lurkers, this has been invoked on me a couple of times so I have mixed feelings about it. It stands to reason that if there is no solid lynch candidate, to target a lurker on policy. It's always better to try and lynch a wicked one though. The greatest purpose of this policy is to make the scum fearful of lurking. Lynch all Liars I don't believe in. In my experience, scum have been very careful about what they say to avoid lies and contradictions. Townsfolk will change their reads when they realise they've been tricked. It's a very townie trait to be changing it up as the day goes on. On the other hand, it's important to watch the MBK lists especially from D2 onwards. If you see someone giving a marry or a kill without good reason, chances are they are scum. Votes are the most important thing, if someone votes for a princess who's not on their kill list, be worried.

In my mind, there is no real time when a townie lying would benefit town, so I would urge you not to do so, because if I catch you, I will push you. And chances are you will be scum when you flip afterwards. I have also recently played with a very annoying lurker, who just deflected all questions and did not really give any information at all to town. Behavior like this will also be pushed HARD. Hopefully we get a good town atmosphere going where everyone is open about their thoughts and reads so scum has nowhere to hide. Have fun peeps~ 1. Promises, promises. 2. No. Though pushing on this would be your prerogative. 3. Cool. 4. This seems pretty weak in comparison with the earlier part of your post. First you say what you are going to do to liars and lurkers, fair enough. But instead of keeping your post strong and giving possible reads, you then spout some garbage about how you're hoping that everyone will be open and give reads. I'm expecting you to stay strong and give some reads yourself instead of this hopeful garbage. On August 26 2014 17:09 JennyHell wrote: I have yet to give a MBK list, because it's way too early. I merely explained what it all meant and suggested that we should all use that format. Don't see what's scummy about that..

Alright. Good point on the flavour call. You seem like a person who would find it fun to keep the flavour up. But why does meatmonster want flavourful posts from everyone? Seems like he quit it real quick once it didn't stick (master of poetry). On August 26 2014 17:10 abuse wrote: @ meatpudding, Fair enough - I am town and was hoping for a town power role. Waiting for your answer to this also. As for the policies, I have explained my stance a little above. You seem to have a bit little different view on the lynch all liars policy. How I see is, if you get caught lying - not explain it yourself, beforehand, and why you are changing your mind, then it is scummy and you deserve a lynch. Town does not have a reason to lie, without a reason (if you catch my drift). If a lie like that is caught, then this policy would take effect. There is no reason to have this policy. If the lie is alignment indicative, you should be able to make a case strong enough. There is no need to restrict the town with these garbage rules.

The disproportion stemmed from the multitude and length of posts and not from too few reads. Again, this is a minor thing though. What I would like to see is more from lilwade though. He may be asleep right now because I see he lives in the us but I'm interested in the fact that he asked for reads but ultimately did not contribute. I see that as a little scummy as if he's testing the waters with his toe before putting himself at all in the spotlight. I'll wait 10-12 more hours before I form an opinion based on being lurky. Daydreamarine is in the same boat. In regards to the kill, bang, marry thing I think i'm in a bang jennyhell spot because I liked your reads and because I think you would have been more reluctant to take the microphone so hard day 1 had you been mafia. I'm too young to get married though. 1. Meh. 2. Alright. Decent, directed reads. 3. You want to bang the only female in the thread? Being sexist is scummy!

I also could have added some smileys to make the intention behind the post a bit clearer. For what it's worth: 'Barakos' is a name I took out of a Warhammer Fantasy Battlereport, where the author named his Strigoi-Vampirecount 'Barakos' and i've been using the name ever since, so if you want a 'scummy' name... there you got it. ![]() Hope, that will be all, there is left to say about the name-discussion... now for the important stuff: On Jenny: I think Jenny is playing very similar to the last Newbie-Mafia and trys to get the thread going / is very vocal, so seeing that she was town the last game, I read her as town for now, although i am not very sure, since she stated herself: On August 26 2014 16:59 JennyHell wrote: Whether I am mafia or town I would still play the exact same way, or at least try to, so that in the off chance I would get mafia in a game in the future it'll be easier for me to seem towny.

It looks to me, as if you were trying to get yourselft the permission to lurk for a while... granted: you answered your questions when you were asked, still I found this a bit odd and will keep an eye on you. And to answer your questions: My alignment is town, but i kinda hoped i would roll mafia. I absolutely hate playing in the dark, so i would have loved to know, who is friend and who is foe. Now i will have to trust my instincts... god help us all! Lynching a liar is something that is very situation-dependend... like "Did the person lie to protect a powerrole at night?" vs. "Did sb. fakeclaim a powerrole at daytime to get the real powerrole lynched?". Lynching the lurkers is something I would only resort to, if I had no better scumread on anybody else, since I think it is a quite weak motiv to lynch somebody and chances are high, the lynchee will flip town. That being said: this is my first forumgame, so I haven't really met any really annoying lurkers. Let's just hope, everybody is active in this game, so we can get solid reads. On the other ones, that have posted so far: There is not much I can read out of your posts so far... mostly due to the fact, that there aren't that many posts to read from. 1. Lore! 2. 87.31% agreement! 3. Alright. 4. Let us clasp hands, dear vampire who's name is Barakos! I shall lead you through the darkness! Though.. don't vampires have darkvision? Gotcha, scum! 5. I have agreed too many times already. 6. Alright. 7. Alright.

While it seems like it does not matter, since you can lie easily about what alignment you would want to play, I have found that knowing this information helps you paint a picture of a player.(for example, compare your answer of the first question to MihZaaa) Later down the game you can use this as a tool to see if they match it or not.

Is everyone else really sleeping at the moment? we have only done 2 pages of in-game content in the first... many hours, and the previous newbie game had 30 pages in 1 day, let's step it up! All in all @Barakos, I like what you're saying. Hopefully this level of openness will stick to everyone here. 1. This is too early. Not everyone has answered yet, why reveal this already? 2. Fair, but answer the questions. 3. Alright. Where the fuck is the promised day 1-2 read from the previous game?! On August 26 2014 23:31 abuse wrote: Correction - in Day 1, not in 1 Day. Scumslip!

I do like the second question a lot more though. It still feels a bit like focusing on others so you can throw scum on townies that maybe aren't being seen as town yet rather than a genuine gathering of information with the purpose of finding mafia. [u]In regards to your answers to your own question. Like, I said I also like being a power role and I said why but you explicitly mentioned that you want it to be a town power role. Can you elaborate why you prefer town power roles. I like a lot that Barakos logged in from work to pitch in. I think it's less likely that mafia would bother to do that especially when nobody is being put on the spot right now which is when you will see mafia push on them more and be active. I feel like things will pick up a bit as soon as we can start to get a read on lilwade and daydreamarine as well. 1. Anything is better than nothing, still. 2. Decent push. 3.

Mafia circle with at least 1 person. daydreamarine: SOMETHING SUBSTANTIAL lilwade: SOMETHING SUBSTANTIAL gobbledydook: SOMETHING SUBSTANTIAL Breshke: Your promised reads. abuse: Your promised previous game read. That being said, let's get this ball rolling! ##Vote: Breshke Bresh, so far all you've given is excuses and a promise of reads.

Since there are some of you that have expressed concern for my "push" on meatpope, I have now gone back to the old thread to give you an example of what kind of post I'm used to seeing from meatpoke. Example 1.) This is his first post in the thread. The game started July 29 2014 15:20. and his absolutely first post came in July 30 2014 11:09. As you can see, no flavour, no nothing. Not at all the same kind of opening as he did this game. Which is why it caught my eyes. And I wanted to let everyone know that he doesn't seem the same as last game.. Why? Ask him, not me. But here's my 2 cents. The reason might have been because he entered so late in the game so we've already come to the serious part of day 1, so there was no opportunity for him to add flavour. Although, if you ask me, I'd probably add flavour either way. People have been known to call me "Flavour Flav" after all. Or, he might just be scum, wanting to hide among the flavour of everyone else. The fact that it was different than his last game still stands. It was different, so I'm going to keep my eyes on meatproduce. It's really not that difficult to understand, is it? Good, that's what I thought, and why you are a fellow townie, for now. ![]() | ||

Last game was my first forum mafia game, and it kind of came as a shock to me how seriously I took it, how invested I was in it and when I was dead I was still following it closely, trying to solve the puzzle, almost ripping my hair out of my head from the frustration of not being able to voice my opinion and help the town on their way to victory. Therefore, according to me, I was too towny. Too many people read me as town and mafia decided to get rid of me. Yes, I agree that taking a rolebullet as VT is a good thing, but I just really really really wanted to play! I hope that explains it a bit better. That's fine, but keep in mind that the goal is for town to win. If dying means that town wins, then you die. | ||

The town seem fine, but on the lynch you skipped mentioning MihZaaaa that had a worse score than abuse. Care to explain that? Yeah, it doesn't fully correspond to my actual +/- list. I liked MihZaaa's last few posts (he actually contributed, unlike most others) and decided to replace his initial place in my mafia circle with abuse. Furthermore, I had a case lined up against MihZaaa before based on what I thought was a contradiction: it seemed like he was saying he wanted to lynch or at least look at lurkers (post #135), even though he said he didn't like to lynch lurkers (post #125). But on review (triggered by post #141 which he made during the construction my post) it seemed like he was instead withholding his opinion on them until they post something substantial. Due to this revelation, his activity, and the fact that most of my case was based on something which turned out to be a misunderstanding, I decided to keep him neutral for now. | ||

Honestly, I spend way too much time in that post and I was getting pretty tired. I don't think I'll do many more of those. The readability sucks in retrospect. The numbers were supposed to correspond to the underlined text, but what usually happened was the entire post would be underlined, because I was responding to every part individually. Oh well. MihZaaa is currently at -0.5 (he got a +0.5 for some of his reads), abuse is also at -0.5 and Breshke is currently at -1. I don't want to keep giving numbers to everything in public because it's a pain in the ass (I want to mask some of my reads). Some general questions: - Is it possible to see who read what post? - Is it allowed to post links to excel files if you feel like you're going to die? | ||

As such I will mostly talk about the things you attributed points to. I didn't like that you said this at all. I don't see why town would bring up what might have been a major slip-up from cop. Seems like you're making sure who to kill in the night and considering you gave him a tasty +1 for pretty much nothing it seems like you're trying to pocket him. In all honesty, I feel like a cop would never soft-claim like this.

I don't like it when people preface with what their playstyle is (especially for pushing), why would you do that? It feels to me like already making foundations for your defense (why would you do that?). On August 27 2014 13:46 meatpudding wrote:3. Somehow I suspect the hard push is coming. Also, how does giving misinformation about your MBK list help town in any way? You've mentioned your private points list a couple of times but I'm not convinced it's going to help us. Don't get me wrong, my town/mafia circle is what it is. I'm not going to lie about that so easily. However, I have obscured a bit of information about how I grade posts (i.e. tells) because I don't want people to figure out how I read them. On August 27 2014 13:46 meatpudding wrote:4. Good point, it may have been too early to reveal his reasoning here. As for the why, both me and Barakos called him out for asking us to provide information, when he wasn't giving us anything to read from. So I think he was forced to back up a bit. And if you check page 7, he does answer all the questions (I note this in my case on you). So yeah, I missed on abuse's response to his own questions (missed the part where he responded that he was VT and wanted town PR) because it was split up in two posts. To be honest, that was one of the weakest points in my thesis. Not a game breaker (in my opinion). On August 27 2014 13:46 meatpudding wrote:5. Maybe you're right. But is it indicative of abuse's alignment? It could be scummy to hunt for roles, so maybe. But def a weak weak read. As for abuse's reply that often people don't answer before they ask, I think this is a scum trait because, as I said above, it doesn't give town any way to read the person asking the questions. So this could lead to abuse being scummy but not for the reason you've stated. This is something abuse needs to clear up asap. You're right, this is a weak read. I'm not going to have a huge list of strong reads this early into the game on one person. Alas, I'm not that good (yet!). On August 27 2014 13:46 meatpudding wrote:6.

However, you bring up a good point (one that I will reiterate later in a general post): where is Jenny? I towncircled her because she was very active and vocal, and I believed it would be easy to get reads on her early on. Time to kick her into the circle of neutrality?

You and I seem to be reading the opposite and it makes you look wicked to me. Unless I missed something, you read Jenny and Barakos as similar alignment to me. Not really that opposite? Also town can disagree. I like this shit, MeatProp, it doesn't feel like a mafia trying to pocket abuse, nor does it feel like mafia defending mafia (I sincerely doubt that would happen D1 so quickly after my thesis).

The other way - how scum would do it - is latch on to this detail for all eternity and push that this is what scum would do. hence what you are doing now.

I don't know how I feel about gobbledydook, I find myself agreeing with him with what little he has said on abuse. His flip on me just now feels a little too scummy for scum? If that makes sense. Would like to hear more from him.

On August 27 2014 19:26 Breshke wrote:Superbia I dislike your push on abuse. You asked him how explaining his playstyle is helpful to town saying that this was just something he could fall back on for scummy play when you yourself were talking about “private reads”. Couldn't mentioning these be seen in the same way as a scapegoat to fall back on after a scummy play? Also was your vote for me just to try and make me talk? If not what changed between your vote on me and your vote on abuse? Good point, but when I push on someone for the lynch, I'm going to out all my reads. Besides, as I've said before, my mafia and town circle is definitely definite (i.e. not private). When I make a scummy play and refer to private reads, feel free to push on me. Happy you're giving some reads, Breshke, not sure what to think of them yet, though. | ||

Nonetheless I think it will be a very entertaining experience. I am not a fan of using a point system to analyze behaviour and find this a bit suspicious. All the players who introduced themselves like "Lets ban all the wickedness seem a bit mafia too me since this would be a good distraction from their own role". I am just making these points without mentioning names since it is my first post here and I want to give everybody a fair chance before I call my shots". Welcome, welcome. Please, join in. ![]() | ||

I feel like you cause more harm than good with the confusion and mess you create. Please, do prove me wrong. I'd love to change my read on you. ##Vote: Superbia Willing to change to other wagons should it be better for town. So I guess it's time for some defense? I have now heard the term "take it way out of context" more than once. I'm sorry, but if you disagree with how I read people, that's fine, just say that. However, both MeatPertubator and Barakos seemed to agree with my (in my opinion) most important reads on abuse. You don't know what to think of me so you want to kill me? I feel like this is a bad reason. I push on someone hard to get interactions going and information flowing. Really, before I started interacting (and I'll admit, it was a bit more chaotic than I wanted, especially my megapost) nothing was really going on. I don't want to waste precious time, especially when we're dealing with multiple timezones. Day 1 is the hardest to read. So I felt a bit iffy on Breshke and abuse, so I wanted to push on them a little. I felt abuse's reply was a bit too defensive, and most importantly, it revealed (to me) that he had skimmed my post. Most importantly, he seemed to have poorly registered my towncircle; he said he had the complete opposite towncircle, while our towncircles actually seemed very similar. This was my main argumentation. I admit that the rest of the arguments were maybe a bit far fetched (it was still a bit scummy in my eyes), but I wanted to push him as hard as I could, to see what I could get out of him. Both gobbledydook and abuse pushed quite a bit of scum on me, so I'm not surprised to see a vote appear. I'm surprised the former didn't start a vote, and that seems a little scummy to me? Especially after he flipped so hard. I'd like MeatProbability's and Barakos' opinion on me and the whole "taking shit out of context" conundrum. They are my top town at the moment. I'd prefer not to get lynched today. I'll take questions from here. | ||

It is my second mafia game ever, and my first forum mafia game, so I'm pretty excited about it all (this might seem like a hypocritical answer, but how invested I am in the game is a meta-question anyway, so expect a meta-answer). Eh, to be honest, I care more about killing scum, if I seem a bit scummy in the process, then so be it. However, I don't want town to misslynch, so I'll try to keep it less chaotic, i.e. shorter posts, less jokes (alas ![]() Mafia will probably always try to stay under the radar until they are getting to the finishing point. One might pop up during day 2 to try and integrate into the town circle (if he/she's not there already). Probably the one who didn't vote on a miss lynch (if we get one today). I really really hope we get a lynch today, because it would the game so much easier. | ||

The reason why someone gets mad and angry when being legitely threatened, is not what mafia would do. Mafia would not do this - because as you mentioned yourself, it is self-destruct play. It was pretty obvious at the end that he would flip town. I agree that he was very scummy earlier on in the day phase(the ONLY kind of townie thing he said, was that he would flip Aurora, the Sleeping Beauty, which matches the formatting of the town roles, and I was kind of hoping that someone would call him out for this, claiming to be sleeping beauty themselves) but at this point it should have been obvious that he would flip town. Mafia does not make get angry like this. Are you fucking kidding me? He gave no defense and had acted scummy during the day. Isn't this really fucking easy to say?

Then he only went for MihZaaa after wades swing and when he could be quite sure, that he would not get lynched, since it would have taken 2 extra-votes on him and there were not enough people active in the thread to accomplish this, since many of us - myself included - were not present at the end of the day. Gobbles vote already was on him by the time he switched, so it would have taken 2 out of Meatpudding, abuse, superbia, lilwade an me. Lilwade switched back to his prime suspect just a few posts before, so he could be quite sure, he wouldn't get lilwades vote and meatpudding, abuse and I were not present anymore by the time he switched. I don't think this switch was a risk at all. On lilwades swing I feel unsure, since he had MihZaaa as his first vote, then switched to gobbledydook after his outburst and then switched back to MihZaaa, once his outburst was over and the tempers have cooled down. I don't like the back and forth, but it is in line with his previous posts and I can't blame him for swinging to gobble for a short period of time. He also gave an explanation for swinging: Still: I don't like the switching back and forth but I can understand both switches. I still would have felt better, if he had stuck with MihZaaa. I don't want to defend Breshke's defense/reads, because he has been sheeping most (all?) of them. I feel like he's very likely mafia (especially at this point). However, you make that swing with so many people who could be lurking and could start voting at any point, you take a risk. I think there were people lurking last night. Like I said before, I think mafia is among them (at least 1). Breshke might've been taking the chance because there was a mafia partner ready to vote on dook (in which case the mafia was probably not already on the voting for dook list). Alternatively, he might've been taking just a bigger, more calculated risk, as you suggested. I think that's a fair statement to make, one that I have considered as well, and there's no way Breshke will not be a wagon today. Switching back and forth to put some pressure is fine, but I have no idea why he switched back after the lack of defense (in my opinion). I'm going to finish my lunch and then reevaluate everyone, especially the people absent last night. | ||

I don't even know. You've given nothing so far, I don't like lynching lurkers, but be active, pretty please? MihZaaa - voted on dook / inactive during EoD Early on in the day gives a weird read on lilwade about him testing the waters with some questions. Didn't like the read. Felt the need to defend himself against my sexist joke, not sure if this is miscommunication or being too defensive. Replaces Jenny with Barakos for top town, that's fine. This was after a few people had already added Barakos as top town, though he gave him some meta-cred before (logging in from work). Calls out marine and lilwade for more interaction (specifically the latter, for only asking questions). Neglects dook, who hasn't participated yet at this point. Dook was town, so I don't know how to feel about this. Actually reads my megaposts and responds. Asks abuse why he specifically would've liked a town power role rather than a blank power role. I can see why this question is asked. Getting a bit more general here, since this is otherwise going to become another megapost: Aligns himself with my towncircle (specifically easy townreads) early on the game. Specifically aligns himself with Barakos, Jenny, me. This may be mafia going stealth mode, which would also explain his absence during EoD. Pushes on dook for good reasons. But doesn't do anything else from there for the entirety of the day. Don't like his push on dook into inactivity, especially paired with his aligning with the most town people (imo) at the start of the day. Wouldn't mind seeing a push on him today. Breshke - voted on dook / active during EoD Breshke sheeped most his reads. I can't find anything original. He calls abuse town early on and specifically says "Contrary to what some other people think I believe the questions he asked were great.". I don't think anyone disliked abuse's questions. Points out that Jenny had not "taken a stance on anyone in particular yet", which is only partially true. Jenny had given reads on MeatPole, Barakos, and myself before then, and had explained her iffy stance on MihZaaa. Specifically asks Meatpudding why he claimed VT rather than general town, which many people did (OC). Suggests to me that he's not reading thoroughly. Agrees with MeatPrattle on a lot of things, but doesn't read him town for unknown reasons. Would like more input from you here, Breshke, why didn't you put MeatPoster on your town list (#218)? Later includes him in his towncircle anyway, no reason given. Flip-flops between lynches like a frog. Specifically goes after a new vote on MihZaaa when it becomes slowly clear that dook is getting lynched. Again, I read this as a fairly big risk for mafia, as there were be a number of unknown variables during the EoD, even for mafia (unless both mafia were lurking, which is not a world we should exclude). Though this may also be to make him look good at the end of day, his vote wasn't on dook in the end, who turned out to be town. He didn't seem to read dook as mafia during early EoD, but still voted on him (only switched near the very end). Later made him his #1 scum. Then flip-flopped and switched fhis vote to MihZaaa anyway (his #2). Might be confused town or inexperienced mafia. Was on dook's "kill list" (but so was I). Definitely should be a push today. MeatPrattler - dead vote / inactive during EoD Defends abuse early on (backs off a little after he stops posting), so I doubt they are both mafia (although they could be, as mafia can do whatever they want). His defense was good, and he backs it up with a push on me. Unfortunately, this turns out to be a dead vote due to his inactivity. Reads and interacts with my posts. Though fails on the follow up questions from me (specifically, he doesn't interact on my "abuse merely skimmed over my post" point). Reads me as wicked because we are reading the opposite, as far as I see it, we only read the opposite on abuse. Calls out dook for his vote on abuse, even though I liked that (only thing I liked about dook), but it makes sense in regards to him aligning with abuse. He has also put some doubt on Jenny for decent reasons at this point. And then he's done. I don't know how I feel about MeatProduct. He was strong during a certain part of the day. And that's it, he did nothing else. I'm iffy about MeatPole, but I think there are better lynches for now. Will get back to the rest, going to the gym now. | ||

Relatively inactive during day 1, but from what I gathered from Jenny, this is his normal play. Hoping to see a little more from him in day 2. I like his doubts on Barakos, especially since Barakos came off as very townie at the start of the game, but was absent during the EoD. Though Barakos returns strong after wade expresses his doubts. Push on MihZaaa was nice, and something I missed. MihZaaa had abuse as his most scummy, but later retreated by saying it was instead his "least townie". Seems to tunnel quite a bit on MihZaaa. I don't like "A person that does not have their own opinion is more detrimental to town than anything else." because it might imply that you don't really think he's mafia, but that might just be me. Backs up his push on MihZaaa with a vote in the end, before switching to dook and then back again. Don't think this is mafia ensuring his vote isn't on confirmed town at EoD, since he was pushing on MihZaaa all day, and voted on him before the dook affair. His vote didn't end up on dook, but still voted on him before that. I think lilwade is town for today, though I would like to hear some more in-depth material on people other than MihZaaa (though don't exclude MihZaaa). JennyHell - never voted on dook / active during EoD Jenny, you were iffy for me before the EoD, now you are my waifu. I thought you were trying to pocket me with the push and switch on me, but now I think it was all genuine (and this game is probably more straightforward than I had thought). You were decently town at the start of the day (in my opinion). I didn't completely like the timing of your push on me, I think you could've waited a little longer (though to be honest, I don't think I was going to get much more from my pushes). I didn't really like your full-flip on me, but it was probably genuine. You were the best at the EoD, the most crucial point of day 1. If I had listened to you, the game probably would've been easier by now. But alas. We're never lynching you today, unless you scumslip hard. abuse - voted on dook / inactive during EoD Many people are reading abuse as town. I still don't know how I feel. I had my initial reads on him, but judging from his recent posts (post-EoD), he's staying proactive. His lurker story is getting older and older the more I filter dive him. It seemed to take up a lot of room in his earlier posts. I've said a lot on his earlier posts in my thesis (#179). His response was rather thorough and decentish. Likes MihZaaa's on the following: "Was hoping to get a power roll of some sort because sometimes defending yourself as vanilla town can be very frustrating when you don't convince people that have gotten fixated on you." which I definitely do not agree with and do not like. Liked Breshke's reads. I think he's the only one who liked Breshke's reads? I don't like him saying "I am willing to give him a chance to prove me wrong." on me. This feels like he wanted me to stop pushing on him in order to prove him wrong? It would've made my read a lot easier if he didn't have a heavier read on dook, followed by his vote on dook, since he didn't vote on me. Later also says "You do not have a case on me. You think you do, but you don't, Out of everything you said about me, there is nothing that actually IS scummy. I have, at this point, posted much more townie content than pretty much anyone here, and you fail to see it or admit it, then there is really only one explanation for this in my mind.", ugh. I don't know if he's mafia, since he's very proactive otherwise, but I don't like this kind of behavior. Buddy buddy with MeatPaper, one of them might be pocketing the other. Doubt they're both mafia. Also, called me suburbia... really man? ![]() Completely stopped after his vote on dook and counterpush and me. I think we should look into abuse when more information is available. I think there's a chance he's mafia, but for now I'm willing to give him a pass since he's keeping up his proactiveness. Barakos - voted on dook / semi-active during EoD Lots of substantial posts. Active and useful. Read and interacted with my posts in a very townie way. Says he "might have been blinded by his trollish undertone and therefore missed several slips and flaws." (with regards to my megaposts) but never revisits this. May have had better targets on day 1 (votes on dook in his next post, 5 hours later), but I would like to see a follow up. Absent for the last 1 1/2 hours of the EoD without notice. Never lynching you today, unless you scumslip hard. I dread the world in which you're mafia. | ||

Mafia doesn't need more reasons to shoot me and I will instead spend most of the nightphase sorting out my reads privately, doing some votecounting and what not.

Yes, people have been doing towny things but that should not make them confirmed, me included. I went hard on defense of Gobble because I have experience of similar behaviour in people playing videomafia. There was no logical reason for him to flip as mafia in that particular moment unless so and so had happened. That along with the fact that everyone was willing to vote him off because of BM just felt like everyone dropped their initial thought of scumhunting and instead went for someone, like I pointed out they said, they feel is town but vote on anyways. We all need to go back, filter through all the bogus of day1 and try to sort our reads out. We have new information that gobble is confirmed town. Who did he align himself with, who went hard against him, who did he read as scum and why. All these things are something we need to take into consideration, and then we also need to look at the voting patterns. Who voted and when, who decided to go at him after he used profanity etc. Do some leg work people, I know I will. I'm fine with this. But can you out your reads at EoN? | ||

MihZaaa was active until 1 AM CEST (2 hours before deadline) on the first part of day 1. No evening/night activity on day 2. MeatPencil was active around 3 AM CEST (deadline): start of day 1, start of second half of day 1. No activity around EoD. abuse has never been active around deadline times. Barakos was active until 1:30 AM CEST (1 1/2 hour before deadline) during the EoD. | ||

Him liking Breshke's read was not really a point against abuse, but more an observation in general. I think if Breshke flips mafia it becomes relevant. I'm not planning on tunneling or pushing on him on day 2. Can you give some input on how you feel about MihZaaa? Do you think he might be mafia? If so, who do you think his partner is? Do you think Breshke is a decent lynch? Is there maybe a world where Marine is mafia, and his partner had to work alone so far? | ||

Do you feel that Breshke's push on MihZaaa on day 1 EoD excludes a Breshke/MihZaaa duo? Or do you still believe that Breshke (and by extension, MihZaaa) was completely safe in Breshke's eyes? I personally think that Breshke and MihZaaa are probably not a duo. I think if Breshke flips town it's definitely MihZaaa at this point in time. Which of the two would you rather kill? | ||

My circles for unambiguity: Town: JennyHell Barakos Leaning Town: lilwade Leaning Scum: abuse MeatPackage daydreamarine Scum: Breshke MihZaaa Scum-heavy list, mostly due to the chaotic EoD. Reasons can be found in my reads. Let me know if there are any further questions. At this point I really want to hear from Breshke and MihZaaa. | ||

The reasoning for me not wanting to out this straight away is rather complex. I'll run it down for you guys so you can see my train of thought. I didn't know which one I was targeted by to start with, and I didn't want to out to the mafia team that there is a jailed, had it not been them that targeted me. I felt like it was more likely that I was jailed rather than roleblocked due to how towny I was most of the day but especially at the end of day1. I was likely to be one of the people mafia would want to get rid of. The kill being meatpudding and the whole ordeal about him softing cop made me think that mafia probably were non the wiser about the setup so far and thought there might be a cop among us townsfolk, so if I outed I was jailed/roleblocked and they weren't the ones doing it to me they would know the setup. If I don't out I was jailed/roleblocked and mafia did roleblock abuse, that would mean they still have it in the back of their mind that there is a cop out there. However, if mafia roleblocked me and they've seen that abuse was jailed and I haven't claimed it opens up a window in which they can fake claim cop and while I wouldn't let them live through it, it could possibly throw town in the wrong direction. Now that it's been a while and I've seen some discussion back and forth I'd rather make sure we are all on the same page here with what the setup is. That way we are all on the same level and we all have the same information. TL;DR - 2 people were roleblocked/jailed in the night. The setup is therefore setup A, unless abuse is lying to out a role, which seems highly unlikely in a newbie mafia game. Can you explain the bolded part to me? To me it could just be a way to hard confirm yourself town while you LOL your way to probably another easy miss lynch during D2. Putting town in a MyLo situation (4 town vs 2 scum). In any case, I don't see a world in which mafia roleblocks you. You were jailed by town who tried to save you from being lynched. | ||

Say abuse is mafia roleblocker, he outs he was roleblocked/jailed to see if anyone else says they have been. Someone that isn't the one he used his roleblocking on. That way he knows there is a jailkeeper in the game and can stop worrying about the possibility of a cop outing. That seems a bit different from outing a role, but fair enough. I see this happening, I really dislike abuse's easy switch on MihZaaa. He seemed to like him on day 1, which would suggest to me that would have a preference in pushing on Breshke, but he doesn't. Instead he just joins in on the easy 2. | ||

Let me address Barakos, because I feel like it is the most complete case on me. If people want to add to his case, let me know: On August 30 2014 20:02 Barakos wrote: I am with abuse at this point in time... rereading your filter, there are several moments, where I stumbled over some things, that I didn't like. Your D1: First there was your megapost. Bad formatted, with small content and many null-statements from you... "yeah", "allright", "cool"... You also kept it in a very trollish tone (for my ears), so whenever someone would go through this post, you could say "Well... I was only half serious at this point.", which you did several times. Your answers to criticism are offhand, like when you were called out on having missread some posts you said "well, i missread you, fuck me, right?", or something like "private reads". The former plays down the misstakes you made, while the "fuck me" part simultaneously implies, that it would be over the top to go at you for this minor mistake, the latter is a weak excuse for inconsistent logic while buying time to find an excuse, should anybody follow you up on those inconsistencies. I believe I defended my megapost during Jenny's push, in which I stated that I wanted day 1 to progress faster. The megapost was intended to do just that. I'm not going to have a list of solid reads at that point in time, but that's not going to stop me from speculating and reading into things. As such, it's very likely I'm going to misread someone (first part of the first day). How many times have I explained the "private reads" thing already? I didn't want to give away some of my early reads, because they were based on how people acted. I don't want people to start acting differently due to reads I might out, because it makes it more difficult to read them. If I ever have to explain this again I'm going to fucking explode. You don't have to out all your reads on day 1. What kind of answers to the criticisms are you expecting when these are the only correct answers I can give? On August 30 2014 20:02 Barakos wrote:In your case vs abuse, you overinterpreted things, you were missing posts from him and you stick with your case, until there is a better opportunity to lynch someone. How many times have I reacted to this already... I missed one of his answers because his answers were divided into two posts. On August 30 2014 20:02 Barakos wrote:You going for gobbledydook actually makes quite some sense, since he thought you were one of the more scummier people in this thread. Then, when Jenny voted on you, you gave a comprehensible defense, for which I liked you at the time - you didn't overdefend like others did and you made sense. Now, rereading this defense I saw something, that I missed earlier: I missed the " 'd " the whole time... I gave you my opinion on your overreads and rushed vote on abuse already. You even interacted with me about this point. Yet still you ask me about my opinion again? I followed up on abuse's case, and there were more interactions between abuse and myself on which you hadn't commented yet. Since you and MeatPython were the only ones interacting with the case (besides abuse and myself, of course), I wanted both your updated opinions. On August 30 2014 20:02 Barakos wrote:This is again a sign, that you didn't read through the thread... you even forgot about some of your interaction with me and yet you still claim this: This doesn't add up for me. I think I've been the most proactive in the entire game with relation to scumhunting and gaining information. On August 30 2014 20:02 Barakos wrote:Your N1: You posted a complete read-list, in which you didn't give away too many new things. Basically you just summed things up and gave some general reads in the tone of "town atm, would like some more activity", "iffy about meatpudding, but there are better lynches" "there is a chance, he is mafia, but gets a townpass for now"... in basically every read you give some pros and some cons on the person, you are looking into without actually forming a firm opinion. The only things to which you commit on in your list are Jenny and me as no-lynches and MihZaaa and Breshke as top-wagons. Things that were very well in line with the general tone of the thread at the moment. So overall this now seems like you just made sure nothing in this list would actually stick out, so nobody would be able to call you hard on flaws in this list. After my sleep on night 1, I re-evaluated everyone by filterdiving them. Specifically in relation to the absent on EoD1 and votes during EoD1. I gave a general overview of everything I found important, and then summed it up with a final opinion on what I think we should do with them during day 2. On August 30 2014 20:02 Barakos wrote:You then follow up your list of reads with a list of times, how long people were active... Totally letting aside, that you ignore the fact, that meatpudding is in a totally different timezone than MihZaaa and me... what was your point? You didn't follow this up at all and just let it stand there for itself without any further comment or reads out of this. I was hoping to catch someone who was usually active during the deadline time of day, but wasn't during EoD1. I posted it so no one else had to do it. I didn't follow it up because I didn't get a read off it. I posted it because it was relevant information. Time zones aren't really that relevant, personal time zones more so. On August 30 2014 20:02 Barakos wrote:Might be trying to keep a list but also might be you trying to make others look suspicious without doing anything yourself and just hoping that somebody would make something out of this. After that you again asked me something, I had already answered a few posts before - this time my opinion on MihZaaa. You also start with a new theme in your posts: nagging on people that were absent... first by asking me about the possibilities of daydreamarine being mafia. A person on which nobody at this time could have an actual sensible read. And after I don't answer to your satisfaction, you let the topic slide for now but not without giving it a final subtle push by saying mafia might have been alone D1. Nagging on people that were absent? You're god damn right. At least 2 town provided an easy way for mafia to hide and do nothing during EoD1, the most crucial part of the day from which you can get a lot of information. I've already said that I live in the world in which at least 1 mafia was inactive during night 1. I'm asking people questions about others to test the waters regarding certain mafia couples. Specifically, I wanted your final position on MihZaaa, which again, I've explained before. On August 30 2014 20:02 Barakos wrote:Then we come into D2. You start it off with this: I don't like this post at all... for several reasons. The first reason why I didn't like it is also the reason, why I didn't call you out on this, because the reason has no ingame-relevance. I will just give it now, for everyone to understand, why I pick it up only now and not earlier. I absolutely hate all those stupid sentences like "easiest ... of my life" / "ez ... ez life" / "2ez4..." "kappa" ... twitch-chat basically... I hate it from the bottom of my heart. So this is only a problem I have with the words you phrased it in and I didn't want to let this cloud my judgement and that is why I ignored the post for the most time. I even defended it vs daydreamarine and explained it to him. What I don't like is that you taunt mafia in it. Why would anybody do this in forum-mafia? It is highly unlikely that this will have any effect, because even if mafia is a little pissed at this comment... there are two days of D2 to calm down after it. So why do it? Out of overconfidence? Or out of confidence, that there won't be any ramifications, because you didn't have to fear mafia? I just don't understand, why someone would put this out. What you also do, is try to take credit for deflecting any nightkills off of Jenny, you and me with your last comment before EoN... have you ever thought about the line of thought, that your claim on meatpudding being cop was the reason he died? No. Why not? Maybe because the reason is, that you know, that he died because of mafia rolehunting. Yet still you try to appear heroic and clever by pushing mafia away from killing one out of Jenny, you and me. I'll just say it at this point, because it didn't work, it was a play. Two of your reads are correct on this post, it's meant to taunt mafia and be annoying (specifically towards mafia). I was hoping one of the higher-rated towns (e.g. Jenny or yourself) would pick up on it and mirror it to be more annoying towards mafia. It's meant to bait out mafia to become agitated and justify the(/their) lynch (indirectly, most likely). Notice the missdirection during EoN1 also acts as a prelude. Provided, it doesn't have a high chance of success, but it doesn't take up any time. On August 29 2014 10:01 Superbia wrote:Then your next D2-actions sum up as complaining about only MihZaaa and Breshke being the only wagon without providing something new except you stating, that you don't like abuses opinions on MihZaaa - and ask him about it - fully aware, that he can't really interact with you, cause he told us in advance, that he wouldn't be here for some time. Or did you miss this post as well? Cause I know for sure, that you missed one of my posts again, since you asked me, since when I had daydreamarine as confirmed town. So all in all I don't have you in my town anymore and at the moment am more willing to join abuse and daydreamarine than to defend you. I don't like to accept the "I can't interact with you" line. Besides, I can still ask questions and he can answer them later as far as I care. I'm not going to push someone for ignoring things I ask, else I would probably have to start pushing on everyone. Here's my fear for tonight: MihZaaa doesn't show up -> we don't lynch him because lynching lurkers is a big risk -> he takes the free warning and shows up on day 3. Can we get a wagon other than me? I would like to have higher chances of killing scum. | ||

Only the first part of my day 1 posts are somewhat trollish. I become serious as soon as my mega-post is over. Some of my side-commentary may be seen as trollish, because it can sarcastic. But my reads are not ambiguous. They are not sarcastic. I substantiate my reads. They don't all add up and up and up. There's only my megapost and some sub-material (as explained above). Nobody agrees on my push on abuse (seemingly, excepting dook and MihZaaa), but that doesn't mean I'm going to stop interacting with him. If MihZaaa also flips town (and I die), please take a serious look at abuse. Nobody seemed to support me besides those two. I believe scum would support me in some way, especially since they seemingly blocked abuse last night. If MihZaaa flips scum, I think I'll be happy with adding abuse to my towncircle for day 3. I'm going to dive on Breshke now to see which one I'll vote for. | ||

This annoyed me a fair bit because yes I conceded ive been fairly useless this game msotly just agreeing with people and such but this is a noobie game and my first game of forum mafia ever and I had been trying to produce content but it just wasn’t happening whereas people than asked dook to explain his reads and he refused to. Him calling me useless felt ironic to me but yes my initial vote looking back was probably a omgus. Jenny then started defending him and pointing out that this could be town behaviour which made me realise my vote was very rash. At this stage I wanted to change my vote to mihzaa as he was someone I actually thought was mafia. Mihzaa was not active though so I didn't know If voting him would be seen as bad mannerd. Lilwade then voted on him so this cleared this up for me and dook finally explained his read on abuse which in my mind showed he was interested in playing the game again. I then changed my vote. It's another "I'm a newbie" excuse, but I've been called out for hammering on this, so whatever. His explanations on his votes feel genuine. Especially him admitting that the initial push on dook was omgus. On August 30 2014 08:59 Breshke wrote: I asked if anyone else was roadblocked because if abuse was jailed mafia knew exactly what setup it was, If he was blocked by mafia (which now seems most likely as jenny and others have pointed out) the mafia had a 50/50 on the setup. Seems like i will be one of the wagons at the end of the day so its likely we could go two days without lynching a mafia. Because of this i wanted to try and get as much information out there so mafia can't fakeclaim easily tomorrow. I really like this reasoning on the block/jail ask (i.e. "it's 50/50 for mafia to have complete info on the set up now"). This feels really townie to me. On August 30 2014 08:59 Breshke wrote:For me it was a bonus that Jenny was the other person that was role blocked as at the time i was starting to live in a world where as i explained previously jennys defense of dook was just an easy way to get town points and she was going to coast her way to an easy victory. Now that she has claimed role blocked i think that world would be less likely as she could have just kept that information to herself and on the off chance she is lieing i think that situation will resolve itself. Thinks about a multitude of worlds (i.e. Jenny hard defended dook for easy townpoints). More townie points. On August 31 2014 00:27 Breshke wrote: You seemed to analyse it much better than i did and cleared it up for me. I also think that abuses claim is now confirmed and i agree completly with the reasoning on how he was likely roleblocked by mafia. This makes Abuse my second top town if not equal with daydreammarine unless mafia was making a play (roleblocking one of their own) which again is very very very unlikely as it would have been such a huge risk as they still didn't know the setup, abuse is . Most of my problems with jenny this game have been that i have thought she is too town to be town. I realize that this is most likely paranoia and she is doing so many towny things for example fighting so hard to get the lynch of dook because she is town. I'm still a little iffy on the abuse claim (I worked it out a little in my head risk-reward wise, but I need to write it out to see if this is a play mafia can make with little risk), but his reasoning feels genuine (like that's how it really happened in his world). Overall, I feel like Breshke stepped it up today, but I honestly don't know how I feel at this point about him. He feels like a person who's stronger at logical reasoning (due to his comments on the block claim thing), which might explain his day 1 play. I want to know one thing Breshke, why did Barakos go from your town circle to null but leaning town? | ||

If you feel someone else is a more suitable candidate for wagon than MihZaa, because obviously you already think you shouldn't be one, then come out with it and explain why and at least put a vote down. ##Vote: MihZaaa I don't think Breshke is a very good one, but probably better than me. I'm going to take another look at lilwade right now. I also want to take another look at Barakos, but I don't think I have the time/energy to fully dive into him as well today. Especially since everyone will simply disagree with my reads anyway (yes, I am fucking salty, I can't remember the last time anyone agreed with me on something significant). | ||

I would rather mihzaa or even maybe lilwade be lynched before you but if they flip town it isn't going to help much whereas if you are lynched which is looking likely i think your role reveal weather town or mafia will give a lot more information.

One thing is still unanswered by most of the other players. Why did MeatPudding die, if not for being vocal about Superbia? So far I did not read any other motive if I am not mistaken. I highly doubt it is because Superbia did softclaim him cop on Day 1. Sure it could be that he was killed for no particular reason but that would be very risky to do that by Mafia. Many people were vocal on me day 1. You can't really read into lynches like this, because mafia can just do it to put more scum on a town people are already questioning. | ||

I have no way of communicating with anyone to make a play, so I have to rely on people to figure out why I post it and mirror it. Who cares about playstyle, do whatever it takes to catch scum.

We sleep and we hope JailKeeper saves the VT from being killed, confirming that person. In this case bullet proof will out and mafia will out as bullet proof as well, leaving us with a split decision. PR outs today, we decide between the two remaining VT who is scum in a split decision. Either way will come down to a split decision. I honestly thinking outing today is better, since we can have more town to think about the situation. What do you guys think? Am I missing a possible play in the first option? | ||

I'm not going to give a case at this point, this is simply how I feel at this point in time. I would lynch in the following order, given that I have no additional input from day 4 (tomorrow): #1 lynch - JennyHell #2 lynch - Barakos #3 lynch - daydreamarine This is all due to relationship with lilwade, and the overall tone of the posts (does it feel like someone wants to seem town, or are they actually trying to figure out the game). Marine was the hardest to read because he feels very new to the whole game, and his content is just plain weird. The game will come down between a clash of 2 people. Both will know the exact game set up. There will be 1 or 2 people who will have to make the final decision, fully dependent on how good PRs have been tonight. They will not know for sure what is going on. I hope I'll see you guys tomorrow. :D | ||

The most annoying thing was that both players hadn't aligned themselves at all with wade. Both seemed neutral on him, especially given me wanting to push on him during n2. If we had a decent d3 I probably would've had the information necessary to get a better read. But that's no excuse, I should've seen whatever I needed to see. The biggest scumread I had on Jenny was that she had to put a lot of content during d2 on why Gobbledydook was town n1, even though he was already confirmed. I had a couple of other things, but this is why I put my vote on Jenny in the end. | ||

It feels like you got locked into a flawed scum-tell and let it influence the rest of your game too much. Like... this isn't a scumtell. Town or mafia can post this type of stuff. What would make this scummy is if someone posted a ton on Gobbeldydook to avoid making other contributions, but I didn't get that impression at all from Jenny's filter. Jenny contributed plenty of other stuff this game, and it feels like you locked into a post that you didn't like as opposed to a post that was actually scummy. Thanks. I think this is exactly what I did not realize, and I think this is probably the mistake that cost me the game. Putting it in context (i.e. Jenny still contributed a lot during the same day) makes a lot of sense, and was something I did not do. On September 05 2014 09:09 Hapahauli wrote:And you getting locked on Jenny's post made you overlook some of your other really good observations this game. For example: You had Barakos crucified with this post. This is a really good observation, and you should have been all aboard the "lynch Bakaros" train after posting this. But your confirmation bias with Jenny on N1/D2 made you not understand just how damning Barakos's behavior towards lilwade actually was. I think some of this also has to do with you not understanding enough about mafia mentality. Mafia mentality is not going to manifest itself by posting about a confirmed town. Town or mafia can post about a confirmed town and be 100% honest about it. Mafia mentality however will manifest itself when talking about something like a fellow scumbuddy. Knowing that they're suspicious and guilty deep down, yet it being against their objectives to lynch an ally (see Bakaros's attitude towards lilwade). Or fake-claiming knowing deep-down that their claim is false (see my post in the Obs QT about Barakos). That's the stuff that finds mafia, not stuff about confirmed townies. Thanks for pointing this out as well. I guess I did not have my priorities straight when it comes to deciding what behaviour more scummy than others. The others' reluctance to push on lilwade at the same point in time made this seem a lot less scummy for some reason. On another note, I would also like to thank iamperfection for guiding me through the dark and providing me with some excellent tips! | ||
