I've talked to mtamburini and he will be on the replacement list. So there is one spot for any player who wants to sign in How strict they will be on the 10 required posts per cycle is up to them, but that is what I was referring to earlier.
Partially why I wanted to try this game, I really don't like when people make like 3 posts per Day Phase. Well that and the kickass flavor going on ^.^ + Show Spoiler +Not even sure why I like it so much, Just a decent concept for a mafia game, plus it's all sci-fi!
So I agree with milo looking like he just wants to fit in a little with those posts. Other than that I have nothing much to add till more people show up.
I'll be around most of today though and possibly lurking a bit, but afking for an hour or two.

Wait, I'm confused by your stance here as well.
You "voted" him + Show Spoiler +thanks scott for point out there's a separate thread for that kus you didn't like his posts, then say it was just pressure, and now think you have a chance of being certain on stuff D1?
Def could be scum there.
@Milo SL asked before and I didn't see you answer. What is your prior Mafia experience?

So I'm still working on other stuff and will be a little lurky kus of that, but here is where I am at right now.
Kick is leaning scum to me atm. His whole prepared post right off the bat, into being rather diplomatic and trying to appeas everyone is rubbing me the wrong way atm. I'd be full on scumming him but he did make this post that I really like.

I want reads, whether they are strong or not is secondary. I even specified that I just wanted stuff to work with so I don't expect ironclad cases or anything, I just want stuff to work with. And while you may think a lot of things are null, I think there is plenty to work with for people to at least give opinions.
Asking for reads and reasoning is always a good thing to do. It's also an easy thing for scum to do though.. so he still stays a scum lean for now.
I have to admit VE is blowing me away with his townyness thus far. I loved his points against chocolate, I was a bit weirded out by his first post about me, but looking at them again from a scum perspective make sense.
Idk if that's enough to scum chocolate though, everyone tends to do odd stuff D1 to throw out pressure which is what I assumed he was doing. Him dropping that pressure though... far more scummy.
Need to see more from milo, not sure how video mafia works. Seems to me he'd appreciate the graphics from ritoky if that's what he's used to... + Show Spoiler +Lol I know that's a silly point, clearly video mafia is more about body language tells. Though I'd like to hear more about it at some point. Prob not relevant to this game though.

If your so happy to discuss them, then discuss them.
We're only going to scum you for holding them back.

@ VE
What is your opinion of SL? Both in this game and in general?
I ask kus I'm reading you as town atm, and I might need to fall back on someones reading on him if I start to tunnel him. I've fallen into that trap my first 2 games with SL.

@Damdred
I see you doing a lot of defending and town reading so far this game. Any scum reads you have to share?

I'll be no help - sicklucker has a style that I have an inherently bad time reading (lurky). I've incorrectly read him in every game I've played with him. Although it's worth pointing out that with statistics like that, you can almost FLIP my read of him and get accurate results. :O
Lol well that's no good, kus that's usually what I do with my reads on him too... >.<
I'll just fall back to my typical strat of ignoring SL as much as I can then.

I thought I gave a read on Kick, though your right his weak read on milo doesn't build much confidence does it?
I just find it odd that your so middle of the road, but I've never played with you so not sure if it's NAI or not.

By "middle of the road" I mean your not taking any stances. Your giving townreads and saying people aren't as scummy as they look. Just feels like your holding back, showing that your here/active, but not really doing much scum hunting.
I don't think anyone is expecting you to point out the scum team before we've even heard from the full list of players, but I get an odd feeling off your approach to the game thus far.

@ GG
Are you just voting on me kus you've seen my name in bold a few times? Your reasoning seems a little weak.
I am HIGHLY suspicious of the people I've never played with. I don't have a baseline to work with so I have to form reads on people from nothing. That means I'm going to be more cautious with townreading them than people who I've played with before.
As for that vote on ritoky. It was a direct response to his post here,

Ok Kick, you looking more towny now, after those reads.
I can help explain why SL is voting me, though you've already guessed at it. He is just mad becuase I have tunneled him the past 2 games I played. Oddly I've done it for the same one liners and "I'm town" statements that you are doing now.
Since you've stated you've been looking into past games there's a paranoid voice in me going "He's trying to pocket you" since your agreeing with what I've always scummed him for, but that seems far fetched.
My general stance on SL, is that he seems to do those things as either alignment. Him being useless is just him playing the game. Hope that doesn't sound mean, I have given him ample opportunity to correct my opinion of him, but I don't think he can let go of the ego.

Most serious cases are presented and pushed at that point when more information is I'm thread generally.
If you disagree with how I approach early game that's fine but I generally don't put weakass scum reads in the thread lol
I realize that, and I know some people just hate putting much effort into D1. I disagree with this approach as I think trying to generate content by pushing people tends to give more info to look at in the following days.
However I've thus far found your approach, and more importantly how you've responded to my pressure on you fairly scummy. I'll be expecting decent reads from you when we get close to EoD if you want to sway my opinion.
I'm not sold on meta reads being solid evidence to go off of, but can anyone tell me if this is typical of Damdred's town play?

Was just checking in before bed, game has been somewhat dead past few hours, so I'll just leave a few of my thoughts.
GG is my top scum right now. No questions. Was expecting him to at least react to my response or something...
I'm unsure of Damdred, though he's earning town points in my book for reacting the same way I did to GG.
I'd really like to hear from Onegu and def need to see more out of Scott. I hate to say it but scott could be scum atm. I've seen him lynched D1 twice now, when he was town he was active until he got tunneled and when he was scum he posted very much like he's doing this game. Quick little reads and short response posts. Also half his posts atm are just stating facts, nothing game relevant.
Milo does look kinda scummy but I'm not sure yet, I'd like to see more out of him. Right now I cant tell if he is actually scum or if he just looks out of place because he isn't used to this style of mafia. His frustration over being insta-scummed by several people is understandable, especially being new here.

Ok, took me longer to get back to this game than I thought thanks to a rough day at work, bit disappointing that there has only been ~4 new pages in the thread though, activity seemed better right at the start.
Couple of things that I wanted to respond to right away, before I reread the thread and start putting together more solid reads for EoD.

And of course I know SL, who I may have to ignore. I apologize in advance if I start tunneling him, I have a tendency to do that. I think your intentional emphasis on the fact that you are 'HIGHLY' suspicious of people is scum-indicative. You are making sure we all know you are 'suspicious' of people, aka have imperfect information aka are town. A very roundabout and subtle way to go about telling people you are town. I think this is an excellent policy vote. ##Vote Tictock He never actually voted in the voting thread, but this looks like a Chezinu rule vote to me - A misguided understanding of a fairly new guy - when town would be afraid to vote so early but scum wants to start a easy ML. @Scott, I'm not familiar with the bolded term, mind elaborating?
I agree that this completely looks like a scum play to me. He's mimiking a vote already on me, his reasons for voting me aren't bad per say but they are far from solid. GG dropped into the game and just made that read without trying to interact with me and ignored my response to him + Show Spoiler +and I have to assume any of my other posts, I'm active enough that you should be able to expand on that read on me by now . I know I've been guilty of doing the former, but I've always been on the lookout for responses from people I'm putting pressure one. GG is not even bothering to look for my responses to him, and acting like I still need prove something to him. I def feel like I'm being slow pushed here for no reason, total scum move.

I also see that SL seems to be pretty happy leaving his vote on me for "reasons". I explained that we have a bit of a history, but I've never seen him do this D1 before.

I would generally just come out with my ritoky read right off the bat but I'm going to hold off here for a few reasons. Need to see more postings at this point.
However I don't get why tick is being so weird about Sl and him tunneling in previous games it just feels a bit fake? Also he mentions other people he's suspicious of? I'm not sure what that is, overall his postings give me a strange feeling.
Kick while I agree with his post it isn't alignment indicative to an extent pre made posts usually aren't.
Moving on I need a henchman to do,my bidding who,will it be oh you wont like tictock...
All I see here is SL stirring up trouble, and doing it indirectly. He is just dropping the idea that people wont like me or get along with me... That's also a new thing from SL to me, and it feels really scum motivated.

Then he posts this... "sorry, not sorry" is basically all he says here.
I was also not really willing to discuss this before because the last Newbie Game only ended last night. The ending to that game was far from stressful, expect to SL. I'm not even sure why he was so mad about that game, he kept claiming our last day that the game was solved and it was silly to be playing it out. Apparently he got really worked up for mafia wasting HIS time by not conceding.
I really don't have a solid way to read SL, but these things I mentioned are new aspects to his play. I think he really could be scum this game because of it... going to leave my vote on GG for now though. GG doesn't even have the excuse of knowing me from past games and is basically sheeping SL with his vote on me, they could both be scum working together to try and ML me.
