Well, this strikes me as a bit odd as I kinda read this as "At this point I don't care if he is mafia or not". So I kinda get where y0su gets his feeling from. But I don't think that is anywhere close enough to dismiss the case or call -c- scum. Plus I agree on him more likely being scum. But this might me nice to keep on hand for the night phase.


This part. It could very well come from mafia trying to set up a place to dump the blame if the lynch is sour. You're making excuses/plans before the flip has occurred; tends to happen with some1 who has no confidence in their read or is trying to shove off the blame.

ALSO why you give me no credit for that "we" thing? That was totes me who found that. ROOD AS FUK!


Okay, this is a fair point. But I see this statement from both alignments.

Second question for ritoky then, as a veteran surely by now, you've seen others make the same statements from townies commenting on players who might be playing suboptimally or whose town meta is close to scum meta (think batsnacks, kushm4sta, Blazinghand, sicklucker, LightningStrike, etc).

Why is it (or do you think it is) unreasonable to imagine Celestial could be making such an observation as town? The mafia rationale makes sense, but why wouldn't the town rationale for this same statement?


if by celestial you mean disform, the town perspective is that he believes wrong could = mafia, and -c- leading the lynch and potentially being wrong = mafia. that is suboptimal esp for day 1, but it could be from town. i don't find it particularly damning at this point, it does cheapen a really good superbia read though.

Look, HtS should be an easy read later in the game. I know from the last game on the mafia side she tends to drink shots when things are going well for her side. So if things start going badly for town and HtS appears to be increasingly drunk we just lynch her then.

@hts, I get what I've been missing... (see my last post). If scum pushes super hard for a d1 that just leaves town with an easy d2 target. So pushing hard d1 (especially that "early") would be a town move.

based on that, (unless someone can explain why that would be wrong) -c- goes town for me.


If you aren't voting Scott at this point, then why and then whom do you think is a stronger candidate?

Yup. Also very interested in seeing, what, if anything he will do in the near future. Meanwhile your filter is also really short. Want to share some thoughts? Any reads on ritoky and ticktoc? You mentioned that you'd be willing to vote for scott. Does that still hold?

i like hts because she is keying into the same posts as me

i dislike hts because she is having opposite reactions to them.

y'know i gave prp a early town read cuz he made a quality observation, then i layed off him cuz he did a "fuck you" post, which always gives me the hots. but this kinda disengaged is kinda meh. you're falling on my list big boy.

stutters is also declining rapidly at this point.

place them both on the lynchable list.

Stutters CLAIMS that he doesn't really do day 1. Given that we have a couple of high potential lynch targets already I'm okay with not lynching him day 1 for that but I'm expecting huge things for day 2 as a result.

I noticed this as well (opposite reactions, in the 1-2 examples I drew up) and there are reasons for this in the world that we are both town especially D1. One possible reason is knowledge of players versus lack of knowledge (Shining for instance) and second I personally try and ignore tone with people unless it's the only thing I have and even if it is, it's a weak read, and I try to keep my eyes more to other things. You also admitted earlier you need to work on looking past tone.

In the case of Shining I can see exactly why you have a different reaction to him than I did. And I highlighted that already. If you are scum, that wouldn't be the reason for it.

Even when I look at you and knowing how well you play scum, I am still trying to keep an open mind and find both town and scum rationales for your behaviour or others who I potentially have trouble figuring out. That includes the newbies.

yes but even though i think scott is probably scum based on his play, i have an doubt and mechanics as to why i want another target. the doubt is simple: literal 0 people have defended him. when 0 people defend some1 they are either slam dunk mafia or they are town and mafia is pulling wool over eyes.

the mechanics of why i want a 2nd target are that voting logic is a strong indicator of alignment, ESPECIALLY in newbie games. if every1 votes scott, regardless of his alignment when he flips. we end the day with shit vote logic info. i don't want that.

Ritoky, if you want my input on a second target independent of Scott, I'd say Superbia is the most likely.

Sure he did a short note on scott, ff and prplhz.
But I will expect to see some real action D2.
