Not sure I want to say much about my role, not sure how important that info is just yet. I did want to get my thoughts down about the setup, or my theory about the setup I guess since there really isn't much info in the OP and it's really anyone's guess. It looks like Radient vs Dire doesn't translate to Town vs Mafia. I'd also bet that there are more than one non-town faction, mostly kus it makes the game more interesting to have a couple of small scum factions than one 5-6 person mafia team vs however many town. Unfortunately I only have my experience from PyP to draw from, and while I'd bet that there are some broad similarities I don't want to taint my expectations too much by relating to that game. Having said that I think the general strategy of trying to stay organized and working together to determine what everyone is doing is pretty solid. What's going to be weird is that I'm not sure if mafia get standard kills as night (they probably do though) or if all deaths but the day lynch happen due to HP hitting 0. So with all that in mind I'm going to downplay my usual strat of finding town first and then mafia from PoE and try something a little different. If I'm correct that there are multiple scum factions then mafia are harder to find due to them having their own scum hunting to do and so standard scum hunting gets a bit less reliable. Bit of a ramble, but I felt like getting that down before getting into the game proper. Looks like I have quite a bit or reading ahead of me... not gunna promise that I get it done in one sitting but I'll make sure I get caught up tonight. #promisesofthingstocome | ||

I'd be inclined towards advertising defensives only, but aside from that I dont think telling mafia where we're aiming is a good thing. We cant claim specific abilities so trying to coordinate is liable to leave us even more clueless. Just an all around bad time if we go down that road imo. This might be the first post that give me distinct townfeels. Kinda joke fighting with Rit and I like his mindset in regards to iam's question. Also a good time to point out that iam's posts up to this point give me the heebies, though I'm interested to see if the trend continues and he also gives me the geebies. More on that as it develops. | ||

He started off serious, seemed like maybe he was trying to talk through what the best way to play was and even pushed GB about it a bit. I kinda liked the start, but notice he quickly left the question open for others to fill in. Once there were people around and chatting his direction dissapears and he's just chatting. Seems pretty clear he isn't actually interested in getting town to organize as he both leaves it open if thats even the best strat and drops the thought as soon as people start chatting about other stuff. | ||

I have not really read the thread yet, but the first thing I notice is: For those that aren't aware he's referencing the hero dazzle, who has an ability called shadow wave. Dazzle also has an ability called shadow grave, which prevents people from dying. So to anybody who's vaguely familiar with dota, he's basically coming out immediately and claiming some form of doctor. I don't think the doc should come in and announce themselves right away. This looks hella scummy to me. I'm really confused by this. Him really vuagly hinting that he might be a protective role is scummy, but you straight out saying he is claiming doc here and thus outing him to everyone is.... ? Actually I really doubt scum posts something like this, Exo is prob town. I'm gunna enjoy looking for scum in the reactions to this post though... | ||

Just gunna pass out and leave this for the morning. Heh, caught up to this post. Glad I didn't bother reading this TvT shitshow last night. Really doubt any of Exo, Hopeless, or Wave are scum based on their arguing. Iam still most likely scum. | ||

Also glad to see you back BM, I felt pretty bad about how our last game went. Can't do much against a stubborn Rayn being smooth talked by a scum!Rels though... | ||

Like this, it definitely doesn't help town. I'm not sure if your idea of him wanting to use the doctor claim late game really was his reasoning, but I fail to see a good reasoning anyhow. ## Vote WaveofShadow Dislike this post. Way too passive, doesn't seem to have an opinion of his own. Iam, HF, ptmc Starting to get a good slew of scum reads. | ||

Kinda dislike Dandel's return on pg 23 but not sure I want to add him to my list. Oh I'm also liking this Acro dude. I said I wasn't going to focus on townreads but I'm feeling pretty good about the few I'm getting so far. In regards to the whole WoS claiming thing... idk it all feels overblown to me. I think he started making the other "claims" kinda as a joke after Exo made his entrance. I guess it's possible he's scum, but I'm not really seeing it. | ||

Been reading a bit when I had the chance so up to pg 36 at this point. Not much new though, way too much shit posting going on. Yea I'm looking at you Dandel... Most of your posts looks like you are shit posting for the hell of it. Smells like scum playing the "I'm too scummy to be scum" card imo. Need to catchup and possibly filter a few people like Koshi before I can feel like I have much of any read on them. I like the pressure BTDT is trying to build though. | ||

This is actually a pretty good post from Dandel. | ||

You share information and know whats going on rather then chaos. A fist is stronger then a finger. Of course you need good leaders and good followers. and Im definitely not the man for the job Heh, I like the analogy. I agree that stacking attacks on someone is a great strat. It's silly to assume right off that mafia have something like a Bus Driver, and this is actually a great way to find out if they do. It sounds like a great way to get some info regardless of the outcome. There is one flaw in the event of a Bus Driver though that SL is overlooking (otherwise I agree with his posts) and it's that there is nothing to prevent scum from swapping a lurker for a good town so just kus someone gets swapped doesn't 100% mean they are scum. So while there are potential downfalls I think in the long run stacking some attacks is almost always going to give town more info and will put extra pressure on lurkers/scum. I'm for it. Having said that I'm sure people will target who they please for the most part, and having everyone attack one target might be a waste. So the idea of having 3-4 people as targets is prob the way to go. | ||
