posting less really REALLY hurts my scum game though

i don't even read content anymore i've pretty much evolved to skimming through posts in someones filter and looking at the overall jist of their filter and reading their behaviour etc and I still find mafia..... my last cases have been

hts - asking questions and nothing else, not solving game
rsoul - not like town, excuses and reactive
jat - lame and lame
koshi - boring compared to normal and not following up from obs qt in linux

reading 20 pages takes like 10 minutes if everyone is just having a conversational game and I really don't see the complaint people have when they are behind unless they analytically study each page in exact detail which is silly....If there were 4 pages of wall of texts then that is far more of a hassle to me than 20 pages of sentences

everyone has a play style to adapt to and yes, conversational styles in the most part don't really work at finding mafia for a lot of people because they just haven't played the game enough and don't remember a word of what they've said in their filters and in that case they are dumb and shouldn't play conversationally! However, it allows you to ADAPT your reads far more quickly to a situation. If you post a giant wall of text and are wrong you've wasted a colossal amount of time into that wall of text and the research behind it whereas spammy style you're just constantly gathering information


it's really no coincidence at all that mafia lynches d1 are ever increasing because the spammy style is more conducive to actually finding mafia because their overall play becomes so much more apparent the more they post and commit to a direction


if people really don't like reading spammy games then there should be post restriction games in a separate queue to normals but be warned that those games will 9/10 times end up in mafia victories imo because the people that join them will be low content/low post count players which are the hardest players to read in this entire forum

shadow mafia was literally the MOST painful game in the world to read because it had a shit tonne of walls of text that lead absolutely nowhere and you had to waste an inordinate amount of time reading them just to come to the conclusion that they were wrong and you lost a chunk of your life reading it

not important, but it makes me twitch

literally

please, for the love of god, people stop using that word constantly >< it's like you guys don't know what it means. dictionary be damned. (they only added the meaning for the ignorant) xP

I've always been a huge proponent of people playing however they want to play, whether that be someone that posts 40 times per game or osmeone who posts 500. People like marv or HF post a lot, but (almost) all of it is at least somewhat relevant.

But 46 pages in 2.5 days. That's just so utterly insane. How!? And the better question, how much of it was actually worth posting??

for real though. it's kind of annoying/unfair imo that i'm still getting shit on for my play that game when i literally acknowledged everything already said in the obs qt before it was said here/elsewhere

just kinda feels like browbeating at this point

No, nobody is insulting your play. We're just discussing the qualms with people posting a lot of posts cluttering the thread for people that don't like reading to play in. Yours is the most recent example so of course it's going to get mentioned repeatedly.

I think late game when town has to be active and figure things out then there should be no restrictions on activity. The issue is when people are spamming D1/D2 you don't have any real or concrete information so the majority of your posts will be incorrect or spam. Furthermore as more people use activity as a D1 metric it encourages mafia and town to be more spammy just to get a town read. To adapt my play I need to look at what people are actually doing D1, in terms of useful activity , not just number of posts. That is the main thing I learned from Horns.

Lol, from a scum perspective...the crazy posting in that game made it easier for us

(less so for me, cause I actually do like to read the game, and just as an FYI...I WOULD HAVE BEEN EQUALLY LOST AND DEPRESSIVE AS TOWN lol...probably more so)

No, it really didn't.
