I still cannot follow Lunaticmans reasoning on Stutters at all. I don't even see how it is discussing blue roles, since any checks would be done in the upcoming night phase?
So i kind of agree with Rels and Xatalos in that regard, however fail to see why Xatalos dislikes DanelerH?
What is your opinion of him, Skynx? 305 I mention his reasoning doesn't relate to his posting mindset, its a soft scumread at this point. Rels seems to like his way of going about Luna pr prediction on Stutters but its not much of a tell from my pow.
I guess i'm more with Rels here as well then. Tunneling (= tryhard sr?) on Lunaticman seems necessary to get any information out of him.

Anyway, as it stands I'd be all for a d1 Xata lynch. Pretty sure he's fooled me like the last 3 times he's been mafia and that's no good.
It's not technically a role claim, but it's certainly something unnecessary to say. Why would your first sentence be the equivalent of "I'm not a Mafia."? While it's nothing definite, it seems rather odd to me. So initially, contrary to Xatalos, i didn't think this is entirely bad. I can see myself saying something like the bolded bit, on the other hand reasons for coming up to the bolded part is shitty. Like Stutter's entry is nothing different than a "First!

Also hi there.
I'm one of the newbs, this is my first on-site mafia, therefore I am not aware of the site meta. Also find it pointless to link off site meta examples personally. Too many players fall into the meta trap to conclude reads. Anyway this is shit fluff talking. Grill me, bake me, do whatever that makes you happy until my alignment cookie crumbles infront of you.
I'll post my RVS vote, and call it a night.
Just to pop in with my two cents on this matter. Meta is good for establishing what is NAI for a player. (e.g., how often they vote or if they talk in a particular way) but I agree that a lot of people, myself included at times, use it as a substitute for analysis. I'm not familiar with many people here (I've only really played with Skynx/ Superbia/ Jealous before) and I'd like to keep it that way so that my analysis isn't skewed by some subjective interpretations of how XYZ played in a game like, 486973 years ago. Only exception is if it's a bad player who has pronounced differences between their town/ scum game that means they make themselves obvious or some shit. So if we could keep the "X is scum/ town due to meta" talk down to a minimum then that'll be lovely. As far as initial impressions go, I town-lean Jealous (this is mainly because we were posting similar things at approximately the same time when we were questioning Stutters so he's more likely to be coming from the same mindset as myself) Ambivalent on Daneler. I didn't like his entrance because he was using someone else's words to put forth his opinion and then commented on something that looks odd but his follow-up made sense. Stutters has done some questionable things with his claims to want to generate discussion. These two posts struck me as strange: On September 24 2016 08:26 Stutters695 wrote:

This is how I get reactions (or saying something controversial then lurking and waiting for reactions, but you don't want that).

My dear Watson, the game is afoot. That does seem kind of counterproductive in retrospect.

Again, totally normal thing to say by itself, but what I don't like is the fact that he notes most of the possibilities before anyone can actually talk about him...since this limits opportunities for discussion...which goes against his stated aim of getting reactions and thus starting conversation.

This looks like the current meta afk townies and leading mafia for sure. This totally reminds me if the palmar/hf domination game check it out. What makes you think Stutters is the most townie player in the thread? Are you claiming to be one of the dumb-sounding people?  Fourth part is just weird. It states the obvious ("mafia are informed and will try to look townie") but it does it in a hyperbolic manner. Where are you going here? If you think mafia are leading the discussion then that implies that you suspect players and this is something you did not put down in favour of a town-read. Who could fall under this category of 'leading mafia' in your eyes, if anyone? Stutters is obvious town for me at least, I can understand why you wouldn't notice but I have played with him 4 times in a row and I'm pretty sure he is town. Please explain Well I don't want to day 1 because of reasons to be disclosed at a later date. He is not going to be lynched today at the very least.

I'll remember that. This "I promise I have ghood reasons" comes more often from scum than from town though. That is just speculation and if you were town you wouldn't force me to say why I have a town read. Why woudln't I do such a thing ? So apparently you think I'm scum ? No I didn't say that you are scum I just find it suspect why I have to tell you why I town read him even though I don't want to yet. There is no reason not to give your reasoning for a Town-read. I want to know why you think Shutters is Town and I will not accept "I'll tell you later" as an answer. In this post the mindset transforms from confusion into a tryhard sr imo. Hmm... I'm a bit confused... What was the point/conclusion of this post? That he noticed my pressure of being so wishy-washy and switched to tryhard (sr?) mode? And does this make him scummy or what? How does it relate to his first post? Maybe it's not "entirely bad", but still the least towny way to start the game from what I've seen. I guess it's not like it's a scumclaim or anything like that  It's a soft scumread, the point of the post being. I tried to show the way i went thinking about the post, so someone trying to interpret it the same way can see if it makes sense to him aswell. Hm. Ok. But I'm still a bit confused. How did he go from the first post (neutralish?) to somewhat scummy... Because his attitude changed to tryhard afterwards?
I mean
It's not technically a role claim, but it's certainly something unnecessary to say. Why would your first sentence be the equivalent of "I'm not a Mafia."? While it's nothing definite, it seems rather odd to me.
This at first feels neutral territory thing, questioning the entry, posing out something unnecessary from it however it is actually nothing at all. The entire thing is purely nai with everyone being capable of saying all sorts of stupid stuff like "hey 1st post tr me plx ty xoxo" at beginning of the game and we just laugh it off. How he went about making that whole post was very triggering for me, then i saw the post about Lunatic and I'm like "ok this guys is literally trying to find absurd reasons to sr ppl".

I dare to say I have done more than half the players in the game and in my experience you never hit mafia day one. It is much better to build a town circle. Also Stutters is in all likelyhood a blue role. And if he dies it is on you and Rels. Why do you think that ? Blue role / scum are notably difficult to differentiate sometimes.
Do you even still think Stutters is town?

Sometimes scum slip, or someone has incredible meta read confidence or w/e, then you dont't pl. Simple stuff. Somehow I knew you would say that. I hope we can stay on friendly terms this time around but I doubt it. Stutters is so far the most obvious townie. I am a bit afraid of the logical development of this game. TL is filled with smarties that loves to talk the talk but always lynch the random dude that didnt sound smart. This will be the doom of us all I tell you, nobody can look more perfect then the mafia because they already know everything! This looks like the current meta afk townies and leading mafia for sure. This totally reminds me if the palmar/hf domination game check it out. Lunaticman just throws a random Town-read in the middle of a bunch of irrelevant information. Furthermore, xe doesn't give any reasoning for the Town-read. When asked about it, xe responded with this series of posts: On September 24 2016 20:07 Lunaticman wrote:On September 24 2016 19:29 Rels wrote:On September 24 2016 18:13 Lunaticman wrote:On September 24 2016 17:32 Calix wrote:Yo.

I'm not familiar with many people here (I've only really played with Skynx/ Superbia/ Jealous before) and I'd like to keep it that way so that my analysis isn't skewed by some subjective interpretations of how XYZ played in a game like, 486973 years ago. Only exception is if it's a bad player who has pronounced differences between their town/ scum game that means they make themselves obvious or some shit. So if we could keep the "X is scum/ town due to meta" talk down to a minimum then that'll be lovely. As far as initial impressions go, I town-lean Jealous (this is mainly because we were posting similar things at approximately the same time when we were questioning Stutters so he's more likely to be coming from the same mindset as myself) Ambivalent on Daneler. I didn't like his entrance because he was using someone else's words to put forth his opinion and then commented on something that looks odd but his follow-up made sense. Stutters has done some questionable things with his claims to want to generate discussion. These two posts struck me as strange: [quote] Here he says that he was reaction-testing. NAI by itself but the fact that he capitulated so quickly makes me skeptical. Scum are more likely to shy away from their actions in this manner compared to town (who would be more confident in their ability to defend themselves) because they don't want too much attention. [quote] Here he notes that people are likely to discuss his posts. Again, totally normal thing to say by itself, but what I don't like is the fact that he notes most of the possibilities before anyone can actually talk about him...since this limits opportunities for discussion...which goes against his stated aim of getting reactions and thus starting conversation. It's not a legit contradiction or anything but I'd like Stutters to flesh out his reasoning here. [quote] What makes you think Stutters is the most townie player in the thread? Are you claiming to be one of the dumb-sounding people? Fourth part is just weird. It states the obvious ("mafia are informed and will try to look townie") but it does it in a hyperbolic manner. Where are you going here? If you think mafia are leading the discussion then that implies that you suspect players and this is something you did not put down in favour of a town-read. Who could fall under this category of 'leading mafia' in your eyes, if anyone? Stutters is obvious town for me at least, I can understand why you wouldn't notice but I have played with him 4 times in a row and I'm pretty sure he is town. Please explain Well I don't want to day 1 because of reasons to be disclosed at a later date. He is not going to be lynched today at the very least.

That is just speculation and if you were town you wouldn't force me to say why I have a town read. Why woudln't I do such a thing ? So apparently you think I'm scum ? No I didn't say that you are scum I just find it suspect why I have to tell you why I town read him even though I don't want to yet. There is no reason not to give your reasoning for a Town-read. I want to know why you think Shutters is Town and I will not accept "I'll tell you later" as an answer. In this post the mindset transforms from confusion into a tryhard sr imo. Hmm... I'm a bit confused... What was the point/conclusion of this post? That he noticed my pressure of being so wishy-washy and switched to tryhard (sr?) mode? And does this make him scummy or what? How does it relate to his first post? Maybe it's not "entirely bad", but still the least towny way to start the game from what I've seen. I guess it's not like it's a scumclaim or anything like that It's a soft scumread, the point of the post being. I tried to show the way i went thinking about the post, so someone trying to interpret it the same way can see if it makes sense to him aswell. Hm. Ok. But I'm still a bit confused. How did he go from the first post (neutralish?) to somewhat scummy... Because his attitude changed to tryhard afterwards? I mean Show nested quote +
It's not technically a role claim, but it's certainly something unnecessary to say. Why would your first sentence be the equivalent of "I'm not a Mafia."? While it's nothing definite, it seems rather odd to me.
This at first feels neutral territory thing, questioning the entry, posing out something unnecessary from it however it is actually nothing at all. The entire thing is purely nai with everyone being capable of saying all sorts of stupid stuff like "hey 1st post tr me plx ty xoxo" at beginning of the game and we just laugh it off. How he went about making that whole post was very triggering for me, then i saw the post about Lunatic and I'm like "ok this guys is literally trying to find absurd reasons to sr ppl".
![[image loading]](https://i.imgur.com/wnIaRyJ.gif)
On a more serious note: well, "absurd" may be a strong word, but I'd say that there hasn't been much meat to his suspicions. Let's see how things play out between him and Lunatic... Now that he has somehow committed to a cause (triggering Lunatic on the "hiding reasons" issue ), it might become interesting.

You only got two responses before claiming it was a reaction-test? My dear Watson, the game is afoot. That does seem kind of counterproductive in retrospect.

I dare to say I have done more than half the players in the game and in my experience you never hit mafia day one. It is much better to build a town circle. Also Stutters is in all likelyhood a blue role. And if he dies it is on you and Rels. Why do you think that ? Blue role / scum are notably difficult to differentiate sometimes. Do you even still think Stutters is town?
I guess these things would be good to hear from Rels, yeah.
As for me, I kind of liked Stutter's early aggressive / attention gathering style of posting. In the sense that it tells of a relaxed stance rather than one of fear. Well, I guess it's not super-strong or anything in the end.
Not like any read can really be super-strong at this point.
I guess Calix and Rels seem pretty OK too. Others are quite blank.

I still cannot follow Lunaticmans reasoning on Stutters at all. I don't even see how it is discussing blue roles, since any checks would be done in the upcoming night phase?
So i kind of agree with Rels and Xatalos in that regard, however fail to see why Xatalos dislikes DanelerH?
What is your opinion of him, Skynx? Mainly his first post (piling on to throw more weak suspicion against a very easy target without committing either way) and lack of anything that I've liked after that either. For the time being at least. And I dislike discussing potential blue roles especially on D1, which is why I said that Lunatic shouldn't say whatever he was going to say about his own blue theories. Well, maybe he should if Stutters was going to get lynched or something, but not really at this point in time.
I still have a hard time following why discussing potential blue roles D1 is bad. Or, to put it differently, I don't see how you even can discuss blue roles day 1. Since they haven't done/seen anything yet, how would they act different than a VT? Except maybe stay a bit out of the spotlight so that mafia lynch a VT. But that would be almost the opposite of what Lunaticman did: giving a sure town read, that then even increases to a sure town power role read?

I'm a bit confused... What was the point/conclusion of this post? That he noticed my pressure of being so wishy-washy and switched to tryhard (sr?) mode? And does this make him scummy or what? How does it relate to his first post? Maybe it's not "entirely bad", but still the least towny way to start the game from what I've seen. I guess it's not like it's a scumclaim or anything like that It's a soft scumread, the point of the post being. I tried to show the way i went thinking about the post, so someone trying to interpret it the same way can see if it makes sense to him aswell. Hm. Ok. But I'm still a bit confused. How did he go from the first post (neutralish?) to somewhat scummy... Because his attitude changed to tryhard afterwards? I mean Show nested quote +
It's not technically a role claim, but it's certainly something unnecessary to say. Why would your first sentence be the equivalent of "I'm not a Mafia."? While it's nothing definite, it seems rather odd to me.
This at first feels neutral territory thing, questioning the entry, posing out something unnecessary from it however it is actually nothing at all. The entire thing is purely nai with everyone being capable of saying all sorts of stupid stuff like "hey 1st post tr me plx ty xoxo" at beginning of the game and we just laugh it off. How he went about making that whole post was very triggering for me, then i saw the post about Lunatic and I'm like "ok this guys is literally trying to find absurd reasons to sr ppl".
But you yourself disliked Lunaticmans townread of Stutters, no? Maybe it is too weak for a sr, but all i see DanelerH doing is to look further into that, which is a good thing imo.

What is your opinion of him, Skynx? Mainly his first post (piling on to throw more weak suspicion against a very easy target without committing either way) and lack of anything that I've liked after that either. For the time being at least. And I dislike discussing potential blue roles especially on D1, which is why I said that Lunatic shouldn't say whatever he was going to say about his own blue theories. Well, maybe he should if Stutters was going to get lynched or something, but not really at this point in time. I still have a hard time following why discussing potential blue roles D1 is bad. Or, to put it differently, I don't see how you even can discuss blue roles day 1. Since they haven't done/seen anything yet, how would they act different than a VT? Except maybe stay a bit out of the spotlight so that mafia lynch a VT. But that would be almost the opposite of what Lunaticman did: giving a sure town read, that then even increases to a sure town power role read?
I've never been able to notice who have powers or not very well, but some players seem to have the gift of immediately noticing if someone is a blue. I've seen this happen quite a few times now. If we assume that Lunatic has noticed something and is town, it's pretty much purely harmful to elaborate on that in the thread (it should be easy to understand - just helping out the scumteam for free). If he's scum, well, it doesn't really matter since they would know everything Lunatic knows. No matter what, I don't see real benefits in talking about the topic?

Unfortunately, looks like you can't vote for yourself in this setup :/ To everyone else, this is why we should lynch him today. He's always one step ahead, we'll never catch him. On a more serious note, how does everyone feel about going with the scummiest of the inevitable inactives? Activity always seems to be a struggle in these games and I won't be lynchbait for once. I'm usually pro-PL but it's too early to make such a decision. We need to see how others are posting. It's odd that you suggest this so early. This, plus there's Shutter's first post: On September 24 2016 07:46 Stutters695 wrote:

Anyway, as it stands I'd be all for a d1 Xata lynch. Pretty sure he's fooled me like the last 3 times he's been mafia and that's no good.
It's not technically a role claim, but it's certainly something unnecessary to say. Why would your first sentence be the equivalent of "I'm not a Mafia."? While it's nothing definite, it seems rather odd to me. So initially, contrary to Xatalos, i didn't think this is entirely bad. I can see myself saying something like the bolded bit, on the other hand reasons for coming up to the bolded part is shitty. Like Stutter's entry is nothing different than a "First! Townread me!", its entirel nai. So I'm thinking like hmmm he's a bit confused, then you wrote this... On September 24 2016 23:53 DanelerH wrote:I am not liking Lunaticman right now.

Hmm Lunatic intro worst i guess.
Man i dont get why get this PL discussion every game. Its quite simple, odds are town barely have any info D1 to decide on a proper lynch, hence guy with 2 posts dies. Sometimes scum slip, or someone has incredible meta read confidence or w/e, then you dont't pl. Simple stuff. Somehow I knew you would say that. I hope we can stay on friendly terms this time around but I doubt it. Stutters is so far the most obvious townie. I am a bit afraid of the logical development of this game. TL is filled with smarties that loves to talk the talk but always lynch the random dude that didnt sound smart. This will be the doom of us all I tell you, nobody can look more perfect then the mafia because they already know everything! This looks like the current meta afk townies and leading mafia for sure. This totally reminds me if the palmar/hf domination game check it out. Lunaticman just throws a random Town-read in the middle of a bunch of irrelevant information. Furthermore, xe doesn't give any reasoning for the Town-read. When asked about it, xe responded with this series of posts: On September 24 2016 20:07 Lunaticman wrote:On September 24 2016 19:29 Rels wrote:On September 24 2016 18:13 Lunaticman wrote:

I'll remember that. This "I promise I have ghood reasons" comes more often from scum than from town though. That is just speculation and if you were town you wouldn't force me to say why I have a town read.

Hm. I guess you could look at it that way too. Maybe I've been a bit too tunneled on DanelerH.
What I saw there was DanelerH fishing for information regarding blue tells (pretty much explicitly a scummy thing to do), but in fact, it's not really an accurate description since his push started before Lunatic pointed out that it was related to blue tells. So... I guess DanelerH looks a bit better after all. Meh, we'll see.

Okay, if we live of the assumption that Lunatic did see Stutters as such a clear town (power role) read as a town, why would he then even proclaim that? As you said, there are no real benefits to talking about it in the topic. And his completely baseless townread on Stutters had to be questioned imo.

Dunno. If he's right, it could be a really bad thing. If he's wrong/WIFOMing, it could be good. However, to me it seemed like he was confident in the read and just hinted at it to stop the discussion or something... Meh... We're still discussing the topic :/
I guess it's true that it wasn't inherently bad to question his read though.
|
But even hinting at a power role has to get scum interested in him as a night kill target. I see no reason where
a) Lunaticman could read Stutters as a town power role, or even 100% town
b) where, after having arrived at the conclusion that Stutters is a town power role, the best course of action is to proclaim him 100% town without any hint at a reason.
|
Even having someone established as clearly town (if we would follow Lunatics argument) would make him a prime night kill target, making it all moot. I guess I could accept it easier if we were closer to deadline with a probable lynch on Stutters, where Lunatic would use his superpowers of townreading to try to save him, but like this it is just too weird.

Updated reads-list before I'll go to bed:
town-lean
calix, similar reads
rels, similar reads
skynx, similar reads (except DanelerH)
inconclusive
Xatalos, i like the tone, but the Lunaticman-saga leaves some questionmarks about you as well
DanelerH, very pushy, looks for Lunaticman-answers that i am interested in
scott31337, similar reads, but no actual input to the thread yet
Jealous, reread posts, no longer anyting AI in there. good bit of fluff.
SoulEaterQUEEN, i still dislike RVS tho
scum-lean
Stutters, to me he sounded more nervous than the relaxed read he gets from Rels, what with his fast explanation of the reaction test etc.
Lunaticman, what is that townread?
Nothing to work with:
DoYouHas
Superbia
I'll stick my vote on Stutters as a safety for the unlikely event that I won't make it here at all tomorrow.

Hm, true. Yeah, it's a bit odd to put the townread out there in the first place. Would be nice to hear his reasoning.

Given that as scum, my first reaction to an odd townread would probably be to assume that he's blue-reading him...

I can kind of see the reason being to prevent a lynch on him, but yeah, it's pretty useless and even counter-productive to put it out there early on.

Hmmm..... Well, I guess that quick reveal could point to being "nervous", but what about the rest of his posts?
And a bit lol @ "what is that townread" :D
DoYouHas did make quite a bit of posts earlier btw.
"similar reads" isn't really a very good argument...
|
You clearly didnt read the whole thing ptmc because I got pressured into saying Stutters was a blue read by rels and Da.
They called me scum for it and I saw no positive outcome in hiding the information since he could br killed by being a townread player anyway. No matter how you spin it you can make anyone look scummy.
Im going to sleep now and Im putting my vote on Da so I dont miss it.
