Lol?


As far as I can tell, the combination of calling Sicklucker town when he hasn't posted, and calling Yamato scum is what made him vote.

I quite like Tormented's posting so I disagree.

What do you like about his posting, exactly?

True, but I would have liked to see what he said to the question. lol :p

Both actively looking for responses to try and out scum. Especially the first one picking up that Eden posted almost identically to how Damdred started (which I called out).

Positive intent.

So I guess no one is going to play along and actually look at tormented with any sort of scrutiny, I might as well just post my suspicions now and gauge reaction.

Only two people have actually commented on his alignment to any degree, and both of them like the fact that he asked some questions. Mkay. Sure.

However, when one looks at his filter it just seems like someone who simply wants to blend in.

Many of his early game posts are completely fluff and serve no purpose.

He spends time talking about:

RNG

Probulous is right, no sense wasting what will almost definitely be a town lynch. Most day 1s I have been a part of provide some information, but I imagine on a forum like this one the information will either be much greater or much more hidden.

Just getting the ball rolling. You still haven't answered my question, what does it mean to you? To me it means nothing, hence I asked the question.

As for random lynch, over my dead body. We are statistically more likely to get town and more importantly it provides cover for scum to avoid scumhunting in Day 1. No point in wasting a whole day waiting for a lynch that gives us no information.

So which cell are you Artanis?

Also how dirty is your mind going to get this game? Do I want to know?

yes let's get dirty this game


ROFL, what I meant was with 10 townies and 3 mafia, there is a much higher chance on lynching town if the lynch is completely randomised.

Eden, what makes you "bad" at this game?



I would argue that there is a higher chance of lynching town if it is NOT random, but then you would lose out on any information. The theory behind this is that the mafia know each other and the town do not (on average). This leads to mafia not only have a numbers advantage in that there is a higher chance that town get lynched, but they will also work together to absolutely make sure one of their own do not die day one. Granted I am sure they screw up from time to time and do get lynched day 1, but to say that there is a higher chance of lynching town at random, I believe that to be false.

Testing my Bluff rank. Looks like the DC was too high to be meaningful


hmm yeah you were probably missing something critical for your success.


And he asks this stupid question:

@yamato what makes you support Artanis for mayor? Especially without hearing anyone else even lobby for it yet.


Which probulous gives him credit for. eeeehhhhh

Other posts are also just "general information" sort of posts that have little to do with the game.

His only "reads" post is this gem:

It's believable enough that he "accidentally" called sicklucker town but it's also possible he simply outed himself. Either way, these reads are weak and also evident of thread sentiment. Artanis and I are the only people with fingers pointed at us in the thread, and his reads reflect that rather perfectly.

On February 24 2015 11:22 _Tormented_ wrote:
Not to mention he completely avoids giving any reason for it


In response to me voting him after that post, he says this. Ironic, given that he's given exactly 0 reasons for any of his reads. In the mean time, I'll simply assume they are fabricated and designed to be inconspicuous, like my impression of them would assert. Notably, he thinks I'm mafia and that I'm OMGUSing him but yet I'm the one who voted him and he has yet to place his.

It's not an amazing read, but it's more interesting to me than anything else that has happened thus far. I have yet to read Probulous' case on Damdred but in general I tend to listen to my own reads day 1 more than I trust other people's cases. My initial impression of damdred is that he is playing somewhat different from how I remember but that doesn't mean much with my absence from the game.

This one is curious.

It's typical new player fare.
He's pretty agreeable and gives the public exactly what they want---this works from both mafia and town perspectives for obvs reasons. I'm historically awful at reading new players and this is no exception tbh.



Now I think there's maybe something to it, but
a) all you're doing is basically taking the 'he must be mafia' side of the inconspicuous newbie argument
b) I'm not sure why you think it has more merit than Prob's point that I've latched onto. I don't really see a towny mindset behind Damdred's retraction.

I thought you were describing him as a curious person, not saying that he perplexes you in some way.

Anyway, I didn't say he had to be mafia, I'm just saying that it is textbook earlygame mafia play. He's not a complete noob, either.

I think ksc might be mafia.

I remember him being obstinate as town but not altogether unwilling to participate. He was much more forthcoming in the game I played with him.

I still kinda think tormented is town but it's more up in the air with Artanis being on the lynch as well and the question mark I have for him.

You're lessening a scumread on someone because someone you don't scumread but see as a "question mark" also scumreads him. I'd expect that from Vivax, but not you.

sick vivax burn

My read isn't weaker, it's simply that I'm unsure about committing to the lynch. The two are different.
