Alright this Day 1 is the pits. I can't remember a game I've ever played where I've struggled to find something to even post. No matter how much I look back over the thread, I end up at Damdred and Onegu, whilst praying that Bill Murray gets mod-killed.
It's almost 9 and Damdred isn't back and still hasn't done anything. I guess I could feel good lynching him based on the uselessness. But it isn't satisfying by any means. It doesn't feel like something like this has a good chance of hitting mafia.
Maybe going over some meta is the answer. Idunno. Expect a wall of text in the next hour or so.

I can already tell you what's going to happen today: town will lynch down the path of least resistance. Unless the mafia team is something completely fucking useless like some combination BM/Onegu/Damdred, it's very clear that nothing is being pushed aggressively to derail town, and that town is just hanging itself.
##Unvote while I re-read again for the whateverth time.

I'll be up for a few hours to discuss this.

Holyflare is clearly suspicious of a lot of people, and in his mind has good reasons to be suspicious of a lot of people. He hasn't done anything other than dangle this out in thread, and plop his vote somewhat reluctantly on Damdred.

It does not make a lot of sense for a player as aggressive as town-Holyflare to be so paralyzed by his multitude of scumreads that he doesn't act on them. Over today, he's just dangling his reads out there and waiting for someone to pick them up. His vote on Damdred is pretty pathetic, considering the list of suspicions he has.
"But Hapa, aren't you doing this? Isn't everyone sort of paralyzed this game?" Yes, but for different reasons. A lot of players in this game are having a hard time finding any scum-reads. I mentioned earlier that I've had an extremely hard time finding reasons to call people mafia. Damdred as well. Look at LightningStrike's wafflefest. Vivax misreads things, thinks about them, realizes they could come from town, then stops pushing them. I suspect many other townies are in the same boat.
Holyflare is in a very different position. It does not make sense for a guy struggling to find townies to struggle to find a place for his vote.

Comments. Thoughts. Questions.
15 hours is enough time to finish Day 1 strong.
@ Rels
Your wrong about my alignment, but your suspicions are right in a sense. I'm playing badly as town, and I'm going about this game the very, very wrong way. I was lost, so I was trying to ask silly stupid questions to get a lead. That's not how you get leads. Game will be pushed forward, starting now.
On January 17 2017 07:31 Rels wrote: hapa how would you rate your D1 scum lynching skill ?
I have a good track record, albeit in more active towns. It's been a while since I've had my vote in the wrong place as town on Day 1. I'm not always there early on Day 1, but I'm there by the end of it.

On January 17 2017 04:29 Holyflare wrote: onegu why are you making reads that you contradict instantly just by reading? why not just wait?
Because that is how I have always do things when catching up. If I see something I give my thoughts. If 2 pages later that changes so be it. You have been in enough games with me to know this.

Slam's opening was bad, but I liked the subsequent posts. He makes observations that are matter-of-fact and very self-aware. There's also a huge lynchbait factor here. In his own words, Slam is not a good communicator regardless of alignment.
Onegu's vote on Slam is strange and scummy. I can't tell if it's policy, legitimate suspicion, or something in between. Slam has also been talking and interacting with the thread, and I don't like Onegu coming in and just shitting on his first 4 posts without even attempting to engage him.
Damdred for the posts above.
Im not even to his subsequent posts Hapa, I am behind. I am trying to catch up. Jump on dumb stuff much hapa.

Not even close. I had the page open where I posted last and read that. I am still on page 13...

Can we exchange expect you to finish this cycle? I don't care about you posting past outdated info. Get caught up, tell me who you think is mafia, and talk to me about Holyflare.

Oh I did see something back in those early pages I forgot to mention. It was rels Damdred/LS points. Rels goes I have no reason to town read LS but Damdred who claims he can read him is spewing him town.
But why doesnt rels ever go to the possibility that maybe Damdred can actually read LS. Just because Rels has no reason to townread LS doesnt mean Damdred doesnt. Seems like a really flimsy reason to scum read Damdred.

Rels is my biggest read right now. The call out on damdred seems really forced and fake. His read on me seemed fake. Then when called out on it he went from giving me a town read down into scummy would lynch pile.
Honestly I wouldnt lynch you or HF today. I normally stray away from trying to get a read on him early. Because when I do I am usually wrong but when we get to lylo and he is still around I can usually get a read on him either by does he have a reason to be alive and if he does have a reason does his shit make sense.
I would lynch you over him at this point and it hurts me to say this. Not really sure how between slams first posts and my vote on him did he do anything useful and yet you think he looks ok and my vote on him is scummy. But again I would prefer not to lynch you or holyflare day 1. I really believe trying to get reads on you day 1 are pointless.
I would never lynch Vivax. He is by far my top town at this point. He saw the same thing I saw about rels.
LS/Damdred I am fairly meh on. Really think rels is a much better lynch over them.
Also for rels calling out slam do something seemed like a way for him to try to gain town cred for calling out a player who wasnt doing much even though it is slam and he plays wilder than I do game from game. Rels knows this.

@Vivax I think you should get back on Rels with me.
