I also noticed he's backed down off of me a bunch despite still throwing things like 'I don't trust him' around. Point being there as well, I don't think it makes sense for him to go after me head on as scum and draw my attention to him constantly and consistently.

Although I guess it's worth considering if I was the one to initiate the 'going after him' in the first place and he retaliated, and then i backed down off of him first so he did...that doesn't seem as great. I should just keep poking at him maybe to see what happens.

this game is kinda hard to read and find mafia for me tbh. i feel like a lot of people are trying to nickle and dime other people and there isn't a whole ton of meat and potatoes to work with. i am probably guilty of this too, but at least i have the i suck cuz i haven't played excuse.

So let's fix this then, huh? Football game's over.
Who's scum for you right now?
Let's hunt some red.


hm that's tough. my town reads are much better than my mafia reads. off the top of my head

vivax's meta shows that when he doesn't play he is basically mafia. i was interested yesterday in his "i was doing this intentionally to bait people and see who reads me" post, but then nothing came of it. probably just mafia

lunaticman basically was around until the lynch came off him, then he promptly fucked off and hasn't done much since so my read on him is basically the same.

tubesock posted some reads that were awful mostly because they were incredibly narrow but had no depth.

i used to think GB was super scum, but he posted some shit to guilt trip me essentially and now i am at a pause with him. cuz he said "ritoky knows how i play as mafia" which i do 80% of the time...he like to make plays to either trade for important town members or create/buy space for teammates to distance and ingratiate even at the cost of his life. there's also the odd game of gb where i have seen him get the super crucial role for the mafia team and just be miserable because he can't play how he wants due to having to value his own life. so idk he could be an important scum role, but generally he is kinda right in that he isn't playing his standard mafia game....but he also isn't being helpful.

i don't like the style/way acro posts, but having never played with him i can't tell if it is a me thing or he is scummy thing.

and if kurumi disappeared from the universe i wouldn't notice any difference.

and now i have realized that basically all but 1 of these are lurkers and i probably have to be wrong somewhere here

Pretty sure tubesock isn't scum, but I'm with you (or are you with me?) on the rest.
Maybe not Acro...?
Look at Artanis though.

I think it is very shallow as expected day one. It felt like he just wanted to assign blame to someone. Throwing the first rock if you will.

I like your idea of building a town circle, that is always the most important thing the first two days.

I'm also sad to see you say you will never play again maybe your just not in the mood.

Also I'm off to bed nn.

HAHA :D this made me laugh thank you.

You don't want to engage me directly but now I won't let you slip between the cracks so you just try to shade me while voting someone else entirely. And you don't even post any reasons.

It is intresting people are town reading BT and scum reading me although we both have the exact same read on Koshi. This smells like mafia trying to save mafia.


and that double standard gives me pause, atm stuck on whether he's trying to skate by or whether he's someone who speaks in simpler sentences (if that makes any sense, basically someone who makes instinct reads...) but will need to revisit him after flips or more content.


I currently have some huge associative WIFOM between koshi, HF and Lunaticman. My read of koshi is town, and it really makes me hate HF and Lunatic. The fact that HF and Luna are weakly pushing each other gives me weak bus vibes, but again this is very associative. I will note that they've said the other is scummy but never voted to match.


So if I have a choice between a town koshi or a town ticktock I go after the scrub one??? I could have easily lynched koshi but I'm waiting to see if he does something, anything in fact while i had an actual case on TT. He also claimed a town ability too. Koshi regularly gets nk on night 1 and 2 as town because he's a big threat and plays well but for some reason I'd just let him stay alive?

Wave is definitely mafia btw.

I lost 0 hp.


Ok wave might not definitely be mafia but lt/sl are practically confirmed town in my eyes now. I don't believe mafia start laying their kp on wave when they can attack better targets.

Oh actually this is a good point.
Ugh.
Stop making good points.


Is pretty bad because in my/lt/sl's world this only makes sense because we believe wave is mafia

In wave's world (if he's town) then it's his scum read lt getting rid of town wave and sl stacking with me too

But he said it's a good point which is kinda scummy response because it's only a good point if wave is mafia


I don't totally agree with that. I think that it really depends on if WoS thinks he's a town leader and that there are better targets that mafia would go after and "order" LT or SL or you to hit.

I wouldn't necessarily think that anyone attacking me would be mafia and I know I'm town.

This dude has to be town for this

Calling me a town leader rather than shift suspicion on to me when it's clear I could still go either way
The only possible scum motivation is pocketing me if he truly believes I'm a 'town leader' but I don't buy that as an effective tactic

The 'pocketing' has sort of continued since then so He's dropped a little for me, but overall I don't see anything particularly egregious.

Artanis just gives me all over scumfeels though.

artanis made the tier 3 damdred read on me pretty accurately which kinda pocketed me.

i can understand the feelings about artanis though. i am kinda frustrated by the game-state. i feel like i am down here in the mud grinding, and artanis feels like he is in a plane in the clouds. detached i guess is the best word. but i don't know if that makes him mafia.

also he was way more convinced by skynx's responses than i was.

'Too clean to be town' comes to mind but then again, sheer filter makes him look good and there aren't many players capable of the kind of filters HF or I can produce as scum. I'm not gonna go after him at this point though when there are others that are far worse looking.

BM I think is fine.
ptmc is sorta-pseudo-mod confirmed. If he's scum I'll blame everyone else for this one. I hate mod confirmed stuff most of the time but everyone seems to be real sure of it. Think Acro was the one who originally picked up on it and everyone appeared to agree.

Dandel is highly likely to be town but as the game progresses he often just fucks about and stops doing things. I think he has since shed his usual meta actually but he was too engaging and mostly useful D1 for me to consider him scum, at least not for a while. Plus it was Game Day (MTG) today so I know he wasn't around a lot.

I don't know why anyone things haduafsu taco guy is town. Hell or scum for that matter. He's just been super forgettable. Why is he town for you exactly?
I'ma go read him.

This is pretty bad for Artanis I think. He's very discussion oriented but normally he also picks up on little things and is a very intelligent town player. For him to be playing detached and then be convinced by Skynx's responses rather than the way he plays I just don't think looks good on him. But again for Artanis for me it's still mostly a feels read. He doesn't FEEL good. Like I think town Artanis should have had a breakout case by now that causes a stir, and he hasn't.

What is the tier 3 damdred read? Whatever it is, you know he's capable of reading you even better if he knows your alignment, right? (assuming you're town and he's not)

btdt is an activity + arguing with holyflare last night read. he was arguing with hf over a pile of nothing and flipping his read and being all indecisive and weirding me and hf the fuck out during night phase. if you know you're about to kill hf, there's no point to all those stupid gymnastics the only thing they can do is make you look worse in a few moments.

hamsterbabymcafk is purely a read on him suggesting a player was a jester. believe me it is a dumb read, but it is a mindset thing. new player + new environment + rolled mafia to me would tend toward a cautious mindset. suggesting someone is a jester like right away doesn't fit that mindset.

Ok so hamazura has done legit fucking nothing.
I think due to weird 'newbie-to-the-site' statements and questions he's more likely to be town but he got just be one of those tricksy little hobbitses who knows to make himself look like that.
Hard to say for sure. I'd say pick him off at night or with KP but again, there are better targets I think.


Overall town really needs to step it up I think or we just lose to ourselves. Of all the people consistently under suspicion:

LT
GB
Hamazura
Exo
SL
Tubesock
Lunatic
and so on and so forth

If you are town,if you do not want to lose, pick up the slack and prove to us you're town.

Koshi regularly gets nk on night 1 and 2 as town because he's a big threat and plays well but for some reason I'd just let him stay alive?

Wave is definitely mafia btw.

I lost 0 hp.


Ok wave might not definitely be mafia but lt/sl are practically confirmed town in my eyes now. I don't believe mafia start laying their kp on wave when they can attack better targets.

Oh actually this is a good point.
Ugh.
Stop making good points.


Is pretty bad because in my/lt/sl's world this only makes sense because we believe wave is mafia

In wave's world (if he's town) then it's his scum read lt getting rid of town wave and sl stacking with me too

But he said it's a good point which is kinda scummy response because it's only a good point if wave is mafia


I don't totally agree with that. I think that it really depends on if WoS thinks he's a town leader and that there are better targets that mafia would go after and "order" LT or SL or you to hit.

I wouldn't necessarily think that anyone attacking me would be mafia and I know I'm town.

This dude has to be town for this

Calling me a town leader rather than shift suspicion on to me when it's clear I could still go either way
The only possible scum motivation is pocketing me if he truly believes I'm a 'town leader' but I don't buy that as an effective tactic

The 'pocketing' has sort of continued since then so He's dropped a little for me, but overall I don't see anything particularly egregious.

Artanis just gives me all over scumfeels though.


artanis made the tier 3 damdred read on me pretty accurately which kinda pocketed me.

i can understand the feelings about artanis though. i am kinda frustrated by the game-state. i feel like i am down here in the mud grinding, and artanis feels like he is in a plane in the clouds. detached i guess is the best word. but i don't know if that makes him mafia.

also he was way more convinced by skynx's responses than i was.

This is pretty bad for Artanis I think. He's very discussion oriented but normally he also picks up on little things and is a very intelligent town player. For him to be playing detached and then be convinced by Skynx's responses rather than the way he plays I just don't think looks good on him. But again for Artanis for me it's still mostly a feels read. He doesn't FEEL good. Like I think town Artanis should have had a breakout case by now that causes a stir, and he hasn't.

What is the tier 3 damdred read? Whatever it is, you know he's capable of reading you even better if he knows your alignment, right? (assuming you're town and he's not)


damdred has a soul read on me that has pretty significant depth to it. me being more amiable when mafia and antagonistic as town is the most basic level of it, so i called it tier 3 cuz idk random naming.

i think the pretty sure they are town pile is like:
bill murray

btdt

Btdt has been niggling at me all game.
'Too clean to be town' comes to mind but then again, sheer filter makes him look good and there aren't many players capable of the kind of filters HF or I can produce as scum. I'm not gonna go after him at this point though when there are others that are far worse looking.

BM I think is fine.
ptmc is sorta-pseudo-mod confirmed. If he's scum I'll blame everyone else for this one. I hate mod confirmed stuff most of the time but everyone seems to be real sure of it. Think Acro was the one who originally picked up on it and everyone appeared to agree.

Dandel is highly likely to be town but as the game progresses he often just fucks about and stops doing things. I think he has since shed his usual meta actually but he was too engaging and mostly useful D1 for me to consider him scum, at least not for a while. Plus it was Game Day (MTG) today so I know he wasn't around a lot.

I don't know why anyone things haduafsu taco guy is town. Hell or scum for that matter. He's just been super forgettable. Why is he town for you exactly?
I'ma go read him.


btdt is an activity + arguing with holyflare last night read. he was arguing with hf over a pile of nothing and flipping his read and being all indecisive and weirding me and hf the fuck out during night phase. if you know you're about to kill hf, there's no point to all those stupid gymnastics the only thing they can do is make you look worse in a few moments.

hamsterbabymcafk is purely a read on him suggesting a player was a jester. believe me it is a dumb read, but it is a mindset thing. new player + new environment + rolled mafia to me would tend toward a cautious mindset. suggesting someone is a jester like right away doesn't fit that mindset.

See my problem here is btdt is playing scum pretty close to how I'd do it. Talk a shit ton. Get into arguments with HF (and specifically HF. He's great for making a filter look good surprisingly)

And especially if he's fairly new to playing on this site or playing scum (or both), he'd be going about it the exact right way: posting platitudes to the rest of town, high activity, doing a good job and spewing reads and overall making town feel good about him and that he's useful. There's a reason that I'm not caught very often (and certainly wasn't early on in my career). It's hard to justify ever calling him scum based on his play so far.

i am a legend in my own mind and like to think i have no readable meta

but really it's mostly cuz the rules are pretty harsh this game. i almost said pretty bad things.

I hate meta for the most part, but yes that seems relevant (not that I'm going to read it)

In any case just chalk it up to my paranoia. I haven't gone after him since early D1 and I don't plan on it anytime soon.

You know it's funny, I was going to criticize Onegu after the game in regards to how he's attempting to force people to play inorganically (by threatening them so they don't role claim rather than building disincentives to do so into the game itself) but so far apparently the way he's done things has been pretty effective, at least in comparison to the shitstorm of mod activity that was my game back a few years ago.

I think I excuse LT too much now but that seems pretty consistent with the way he thinks---I feel like he feels like that's the right thing to do. Exo I have no idea.
