who we lynching today?
The objective RNG picked VA, which is a 30% chance of being scum which is pretty darned good for D1, so let's lynch VayneAuthority.

Do you deny that he got RNGed? It was truly random and gives us a 30% chance to lynch scum, which is way better than any other case so far. The real question here is why aren't you voting VA yet BH, come on. Yes that was a reason, no I am not denying he got RNGed. But you stated another reason to objectively scumread him.

Further, you're objectively scumreading him for doing jack all, when it's his known meta? I had previously scumread him because compared to what he normally posts all of D1, which is jack all, I think in comparison, he was posting too much within the first few bits of the game here, though he's (reasonably) countering that it's because of the weird start time. Fine, let's say that reason is crap, he still has a 30% chance to flip scum, and RNG has never failed me, even once. Vote him. | ||

The fact that you're asking this question means that you haven't understood how RNG works, because you didn't actually read my post. Ugh. Let me explain for you. 1. I make a post that says, "this post is the dice roll". This is post A. 2. Post A has a global post #, something like 8349012849230 or whatever. I take that number and use it as the basis of my RNG. 3. I make a post called post B showing my math based on post A, and I place a vote. This means that I can't possibly know who is being RNGed and have zero control over the RNG, and there's no way for me to "take back" or "reroll" the RNG. The fact that you're asking your question shows disrespect for my posts, as you clearly didn't understand them. I'm disappointed. | ||

For some reason staying alive, just like sheeping, is a pretty devalued skill in mafia. Everyone wants to focus on amazing reads and shit, and while those are great, the main job of any townie can simply be to not get lynched. If townies don't get lynched town wins the game by default. On February 03 2015 00:23 Palmar wrote: Show nested quote + On February 02 2015 23:12 Damdred wrote: HTS was pretty towny d1 especially early part when I was talking to her with rsoultin not sure what was going on with that lol. While I'm on the topic of underrated skillsets, HTS has an amazing ability look town when she is. She is just so painfully obviously town that it makes the game so much easier. Like for some reason everyone seems to think the be-all end-all townplayer skill in mafia is to figure out who is mafia, when in reality it's only one of half a dozen or so very important skills that can't exist without each other. The ability to convince, the ability to be townread, the ability to sheep when needed, the ability to control atmosphere and focus discussion etc etc etc. This game was actually a very good example of how unimportant actually figuring out who the mafia is can be. If you polled people in this game, more than half of them would put me in the bottom half for performance as town here. But no one was more right on the mafia than I was this game. I literally tried to kill 3 people day 1 and those were the mafia. However: I was not useful for direction/focus/atmosphere I couldn't convince anyone to follow me Half the players thought I was mafia. I agree! I didn't play this game well at all. And of the two things I did right, only one of them was actually really good, and it wasn't the fact that I went after the entire mafia team. In the end my willingness to sheep Damdred's case and thus make a good judgement call is something I'm far more happy about than being right. So yeah, don't sleep on players even if they are wrong sometimes. The #1 priority of any town player is to not get lynched. So as you can see, we have problems in this thread because our votes are all over the place. People are focussed too much on trying to look good (for example, numerous peoples' extremely wrongheaded attack on my RNG) or like, trying to hunt scum or something, when they should be focused on constructing a solid town discourse. I propose we focus this discourse around my wagon on Vayne. It's the largest wagon by a good amount, and on top of that, despite his protestations Vayne isn't contributing. Oh, he might, and if he's town I'm sure he'll pick things up, but it's not like we lose anything by lynching him, or pushing a lynch on him. Think about all the people who have come out of the woodwork to attack my case, or even worse, to ignore it utterly. What's the agenda here? Clearly scum are afraid. Afraid of the glory of RNG. Now, maybe you have your own cases, or your own ideas, and that's fine. I appreciate that. Maybe that one-vote case on rayn or whatever could be a thing. But right now, we need to focus on the task at hand, which is sheeping me and voting Vayne. It's our best chance to unify this town onto a solid goal, which is lynching according to RNG. Vote Vayne, lynch him for unity and because you understand that sheeping me is an underrated skill. any questions? | ||
