I don't think you know how vote analysis works...
In what world would nay-voting your own team be automatically considered resistance?
In the same world yay voting a good team allows you to get credit or what?

Thanks for unintentionally endorsing the point I was making.


You are saying "you won't get anywhere" with vote analysis. Which is simply not true.
You can't just take one example as your counter against it.

Vote analysis requires you to look at every person and circumstance separately and then come to a conclusion with it.
At the moment no one can say anything for sure with votes alone.

Which is why I actually hoped we would play the same voting game as in the first mission. But somehow everyone just accepted this mission even though everyone is acting already as if the mission has failed.

-If you act this way then why did you accept the team in the first place?!-

I do want to know a good reason why sharkie said no here.

Not only that, but if he believes Vivax is scum and us and Grack are town, this would of been a good opportunity for him to find out for sure in his POV.


I never said that vivax is not resistance nor that his actions mean that he is a spy. All I said was that your conclusions are not 100% sound. Any good spy could do the same thing vivax did so why is he automatically resistance? He is neutral leaning towards good for me, has been all game for me.


Sharkie, explain again why you said no, in clear terms I can understand. If you liked the first mission and are neutral on Vivax, you could of used this to get info on Vivax. I have to assume Vivax is the reason, because he's the only thing that changed from the original team with you and two people you are townreading strongly.

I don't understand any plan than involves downvoting missions to play around with the votes and dragging the game out unecessarily.

Everyone seems to think this is gonna be a failure. I agree all the yes votes look bad, but it still could pass. Why assume the worst?

As far as the negativity lecture, save it sharkie, because it's almost as annoying as the negativity itself. Mafia isn't rainbows and unicorns. The sooner you realize that the better off you will be.

~SilverWolf77


As I said it was to get information. We have already dragged out the game unnecessarily when we did the whole voting game for the very first mission (where we all agree upon that spies don't find it so important anyway) so I assumed we would play the same game for the second mission before we select the mission for good. What else was the reason for forcing us to vote in secret now?

Also why should I sacrifice a whole mission to get information about one player? I'd rather end the game without getting any failures. That is why I wanted RT instead of vivax.

~SilverWolf77

He mentioned he did it for information.

As for the failure: The next mission is 4 players too. The presumption is that if the mission was all town, the scum would've already given up, but too many people that aren't on the mission are still trying so it doesn't make sense for the game to be over.


Please don't answer a question intended for someone else. He would get far more information by saying yes because he's townreading everyone but Vivax. Instead he says no with some convoluted reasoning that he expected Town to all vote no to catch scum which drags the game out, and absolves him of all responsibility if it fails. I don't care how indignant he is about the negativity, he needs to explain his thought process here because it doesn't make sense.

~SilverWolf77


The whole voting game for the first mission >did not make sense< and now you accuse me of making no sense for assuming we do the same thing for a much more important mission?! And why should voting nay absolve me of all responsibility?

Could players stop making assumptions of how I am going to react about things? This started on the first nomination of the game and did not end till now...

Basically, if the mission fails, sharkie just outed himself because he bypassed an opportunity to get information on someone he was null reading in order to solve the game for himself if he was town.

Instead he voted no and then goes "well, town should vote no to catch scum who vote yes" but that's very unlikely to work cuz we can't mind read each other and it also drags out the game for no good reason.

This does not give him nearly the information he would of gotten by voting yes. In no world, does it makes sense for him to do this as town.

They did it for the first nomination ffs.

Oh look, here comes that negativity you didn't like or want to read.

tsk tsk sharkie

~SilverWolf77


Did you actually read what I said? I said I did not like negativity towards the game.
Also this is not negativity, this is feeling stressed because people assume things of you just because it fits their view?

You people keep using this logic and it doesn't work because it presumes that people have 100% townreads on the other people in the mission AND it presumes that failing a mission to identify a spy is worth it.

Even if he was 100% on both you and grack, look at it from his situation. If vivax is mafia, he learns that Vivax is mafia whilst the rest of the thread (given thread sentiment) all believe HE is the spy. He knows Vivax is mafia but it doesn't help him in the slightest because he cannot convince the rest of the game of it. A mission is failed and a townie is left out of any further consideration, a disastrous result.


Your continued defense of Sharkie and his boner for you also is duly noted.

You do know that only the worst spies would ever defend other spies?

you start with false premises and you end with wrong conclusions.

grack town read vivax and has a record of it and vice versa

so FMPOV and many other IMO they would have to argue one of two cases

a) both are scum
b) one is fooling the other

thats only in the scum!vivax world cus thats seems to be your angle

Obviously, B is the case. I have a strong townread on Sharkie and you believe I'm wrong or scum. We're exactly the same in that regard as your beloved grack and vivax.


then why are you not trying to persuade grack that he is wrong as well?

can you explain why scum!vivax who was widly town read at the time of his nomination removed himself?

i feel like you missing the objective things that he has done that if he is spy he is argubly playing in a suboptimal manner


So vivax playing in a suboptimal manner is ridiculous but rt and me playing in a suboptimal manner is logical?

Vivax and you have that in common. You assume the best of spies when it suits you but other times spies are the dumbest players ever...

I knew I would scumread sharkie if the mission failed, a Grack/Swika spy would probably have known that and failed it, and I will scumread sharkie if this one fails.


Just for the record you would have accused me if the three mab team had failed too.
So your point is worth nothing.

If you've been reading our posts, we don't think grack would of passed the mission as a spy because they could of blamed you for it easily.

Vivax's play and behavior this game does not makes sense coming from scum which we've explained in detail and was the reason we sent him on the mission.

The Vivax/Grack towread theory is very simple. Unless they are on the same team, their townread of each other is worth noting because they have a history of being able to read each other correctly. Is it the only reason we would use to townread either of them? Absolutely not. But it does play a small factor.

Passing the first mission does not make sense for sharkie as a spy either, using that same logic of yours...

so basically if this mission is sabboed, sharkie is the spy who did it

You people keep using this logic and it doesn't work because it presumes that people have 100% townreads on the other people in the mission AND it presumes that failing a mission to identify a spy is worth it.

Even if he was 100% on both you and grack, look at it from his situation. If vivax is mafia, he learns that Vivax is mafia whilst the rest of the thread (given thread sentiment) all believe HE is the spy. He knows Vivax is mafia but it doesn't help him in the slightest because he cannot convince the rest of the game of it. A mission is failed and a townie is left out of any further consideration, a disastrous result.


you start with false premises and you end with wrong conclusions.

grack town read vivax and has a record of it and vice versa

so FMPOV and many other IMO they would have to argue one of two cases

a) both are scum
b) one is fooling the other

thats only in the scum!vivax world cus thats seems to be your angle


What do you mean grack "has a record of it"?


reading vivax right


Please tell me you have more things to back you up except past games... Because that is the worst proof you can have for social deduction games...
Also what is wifom?

I am still waiting on a counter for this one, silver...
You keep saying vivax is resistance because if he were a spy he would be playing sub-optimally. But in the same breath you accuse me of being a spy but not considering that if I were one I acted sub-optimally on the first mission by not failing it.

Note please that I am not using this argument to defend myself. It would be very hypocritical of me to do that. All I am saying is that you can't apply your logic on one case but refuse to do it on the other one. That is a very inconsistent line of thinking...

@ sharkie: who is scum for you right now?


At the moment?
You or TL/vivax/SL

You got better in my standing but I still cannot shake that uneasy feeling from your team nomination...
Also Super, welcome back to the game I guess?

and not doing anything with them
and not going on the offensive on people. town!sl answers to no man. would not nominate him for any mission ever, prob not even worth it if he tries


You aren't much better if at all...
I know it's many pages ago but please explain your decision of yaying this team

I feel like you are misreading silvers post in question here. You can't really ask this line of question either without a indirect or direct use of it becoming a defense of yourself.

She not once has said that vivax as spy is playing suboptimal. Now I might be misreading the context in witch case you can clarify to me because she is busy right now.

If you want my personal take, vivax!spy not sending himself on first mission while having a mass of town cred is suboptimal.

You not failing the first mission has a two way street cus of resistance theory, many argue to sabbo/not sabbo first mission as spy for diffrent reasons. It's more of a belief system of what you think is right at that point.

If your point still stands I'll let her respond on the issue but I feel like you are trying to aregue a smatical thing instead of the direct point. Because both things being applied are diffrent in nature


A different example then to make it clearer for you.

You say Grack cannot be spy because if they had been they would have abused the fact that I was on the team and just failed the mission to put the blame on me. Thus, a passed mission #1 = grack resistance for you. Because them planning to fail mission #1 would be sub-optimal for you.

But then don't you think that sharkie, the spy would have come to the same conclusion and rather risked failing mission #1 instead of giving grack/silver more credibility, just to fail mission #2? That should be sub-optimal play for you too.

What I am trying to say is whoever you accuse of being a spy between us 2 (sharkie, grack) must have done sub-optimal play for you so you cannot use that argument to defend or accuse either one of us.

Again: I am neither accusing grack of being a spy (as RT said if he had been a spy he would have jumped on the sharkie/RT hate bandwagon) nor am I using this to defend myself! I just want to realise that this line of thinking is flawed.

Game would be much easier for me if Grack didnt do that super odd 180° with his read on me, topping it off with him using the same argument to reach a different conclusion. Now I have to nay vote anything with sharkie + Grack on it.


First it was RT+sharkie, now it is Grack+sharkie? You keep pulling out these combos out of nowhere even though they make completely no sense? Next if silver were to defend me and accuse you, would you create a silver+sharkie combo?

how is grack ever mafia man. he was the top town read in the first mission why not sabotage it?


Because he is running out of people he can put blame on. Have you even read what he has said yesterday?
Also I already discussed this scenario yesterday several times. This line of thinking is not sound. You cannot assume spies play the way you want.
Grack is resistance for me for all his posts and how he is playing this game not because the first mission passed.
