Koshi made a great point in QT actually how i managed to paint myself into a corner by townreading everyone i should be townreading, leaving me with 3 scum by PoE who i kinda hadn't pushed at all.

Yeah, I think your biggest flaw (other than not pushing your suspects as strongly) as scum is clearing people too quickly, but I guess you kind of have to since that's what you do as town.

yep he has to.

Marv will should win a scumteam a game. His job is to distract town for long enough to allow his team to sweep up. Most higher profile players need to take this role because in the end it will be obvious they are mafia.

The alternative option is sooo difficult to pull off.

Yeah, this all over. Artanis definitely mafia MVP but there's no way I can possibly be alive on d6 and not be obvious mafia in this game, it's basically impossible.

Not getting lynched (and winning the game) is essentially as good as I can possibly get in a game like this. I think this is the 7th time i've survived lylo as mafia...

When I say shit, it's not because I like spouting random nonsense, it's because trial and error, in addition with what I learned from people who played before, has taught me that despite anecdotal evidence (hey look, this worked once), there are certain things that are generally good or bad to do. Some examples:

  • Don't voteswitch in the last few hours of the day. Have the lynch lined up at least 4 hours prior and an alternative in case the target goes balls to the walls town on us all.
  • Don't fakeclaim as town. Do your best to be a target for mafia if you're vanilla. Make them fear you to protect the blues. Don't try to wifom a shot out of them because it fucks with other townies even more.
  • Don't make associative reads. You do not know what the mafia wants to do, you're literally handing them weapons to use against you if you allow their actions to control your reads.
  • Don't use meta unless you absolutely know what you're doing. Generally only use meta on people you know extremely well, and only trust meta when it focuses on overall style, not specific things.


There's probably a ton more. I keep saying these things, and we keep failing on them.

if I had to describe his playstyle, it'd be a coked up rabbit with the attention of a goldfish injecting caffeine into himself directly through an IV drip. it's like a reel of random animated shorts where things just blow up randomly

gg scum played well

vivax and GB's reads were so bad that I couldn't see them not being mafia.
I should have been more freaked out that Artanis was agreeing with vivax because Artanis is an intelligent person.

Tbh in the later days it felt to me like you just didn't care much about solving the game any more and kept spouting to lynch me and LM without ever rereading something or reconsidering.

Except when you made that case on me and actually looked at my filter.

YMou must have missed the part where I point out how fucking awful and inactive I am as scum. I'd have been the superbia of this game, if I rolled scum.

it's hard ,when someone is attacking you for every little thing ,to consider a world where that person is town.

Like I said the fact that artanis was agreeing with you should have made me consider Artanis a bit more because I know he has a brain.

Terrible switch to LM

Wow...

I've just realised that.

After I moved to marv and was afk, you couldn't move anymore. Scum needed just 1 town to hammer a townie

So 0/3. At least I had 1/3 before scum begulled you at EoD cause of my rl business. My e-peen wins. And now this conversation is over.

you can see from my perspective why I can't possibly read you as town though.

i'm not getting into a contest with you about who got the most scum, scum played well and a lot of town had the game wrong.
But it wasn't a case of scum beguiling me there was just no world in which I could see you as town.
