At least in my experience, there’s been far too many times where people don’t re-examine the first three people and then for mission 2, they hyper-focus on player 4 that becomes the add-on. Shit I was just about to claim cop. Thanks for the heads up! | ||

Why would they not send themselves on their own mission?? I'd find it pretty strange to exclude themselves during the first selection. | ||

Either: 1) Silver/Super/Tumblewood are all town. The 3 people who are most in favor of the Super/Tumble/Silver team are also town. (1st choice given by Vivax/EC/Artisoul). In this scenario the game is basically solved. The scum team is Me/Sharkie/Sicklucker and we completely flopped, while the entire town was able to effectively coalesce around a town team. + Show Spoiler + Latest team suggestions On January 31 2017 18:13 RtaniSoul wrote: Could you replace superbia with sicklucker?

Vivax wanted the Tumble/Super/Silver team early on and EC laid out several different teams that he could have chosen from before settling on Tumble/Super/Silver. 3) At least one of Super/Tumble/Silver is mafia. I believe that this should be all of the possible scenarios. I think the 3rd one is the most likely. I know my role so I know that 1 isn't possible.

I don't really mind Sicklucker's "turd dropping activity". I just don't like that he's trying to portrays weird Silverika behavior as scum behavior when I think it's more likely to come from town when you think about it further. | ||

Vivax's idea makes sense to me from his perspective. If he's super confident that Silver & I are town then he can use the team as a cop check on Rtanisoul, which would more or less solve the game for him. | ||

Silverika is too indignant to be scum. Vivax is actually coming up with a lot of thought out scum pairings without trying too hard to be town read. Plus he said right off the bat that Silver/I aren't scum, which is a good thing from my perspective. Tumblewood/Artanis are both like "I think Grack could definitely be scum here. Full steam ahead guys!" ##Accept. Plus Tumblewood is super blendy while Rtanisoul seems to mainly be trying to buddy Silver. Everyone else seems to be showing at least some level of skepticism over the team. | ||

Between the four of us you would need to have found 4/5 townies Scum would have had to have failed massively this game, and the vote for the last mission wasn't even close. It's also not like Sharkie or I were beacons of townie-ness that couldn't have been stopped. I don't think either of us were even going to be put on Silver's mission if that mission was rejected. | ||

I also think Silver is town Vivax just keeps arguing that Silver/I aren't mafia based off WIFOM instead of analyzing posts and is ignoring sharkie making townie posts. I kind of think he just wants to take the opposing position of the other spy because he is basing his read on Silver/I on such weak reasoning while arguing that we need to ignore vote logic because it's WIFOM. My new guess is that the team is Vivax/Artisoul/Tumblewood. I think that would explain the yes votes for the first mission since one of Vivax/Artisoul was guaranteed to be put in the second mission for putting in Sharkie. | ||

Artanisoul/Vivax were the ones that were most supportive of adding Sharkie to the team. They can feel pretty safe voting the town team knowing that one of them will be added to the team next time since they were the ones that shaped the team. It also explains Vivax's random suspicion of Artanisoul at the start of the game based off of nothing but "they added themselves, scum!" | ||

Vivax wasn't going to add Artanisoul to the team because he was opposed to artanisoul and he wasn't going to add himself because of all of the fuss he made about it being scummy to add yourself to a mission. He has to add a third person. Both Artanisoul/Vivax liked the people on the team. They could have tried to find a way to backtrack on their reads from there, but it would also make sense for them to just vote accept. | ||

You've created a scenario in which I could be a spy with Vivax based on how the votes went but there's no actual arguments for why I'm mafia in there. It just makes sense for me as a plausible explanation for the vote count on the first mission. My 2 premises I got from reading through the thread this morning were that sharkie is town and Silver is town. From there I need Vivax to be mafia because this mission passed. But the first mission is very unlikely to go through if the scum team is Vivax + 2 people who aren't being town read (Say Sicklucker/EC). Things would make a lot more sense for me if the team was You/Vivax, because you both could reasonably approve the mission as scum knowing that it won't cost you the game in this scenario. | ||

I do follow your logic on why it doesn't make sense for a spy to vote for the first one if it was clean unless they have a good presence. One explanation I see is that if it didn't go through, silver would get a mission and it'd auto pass and silver's reads did not include scum for his choices. Another would be that at least this way they can get cred for voting for a passed mission. I'm town reading sharkie because I think he's done a few things that I wouldn't except to see out of a new mafia player. That's obviously not the case for you. The bold is actually really interesting though because I remember Silver had you as his top town read. So that's actually possible. In this case scum! Vivax would still have to have been unable to add any of his teammates to the team though. | ||

Pretty sure that's a better option unless in this world vivax is going for some solo carry strat with sl/tw as his team mates. I think Vivax wouldn't send himself because he made such a big deal out of how bad it was that everyone else was adding themselves to their teams. The only thing that worries me right now is that I've never seen what Silverika's scum play looks like. | ||

I was suspicious of the original three during the day, unlike you It's also bullshit. The general consensus was that the spy was on the original team, and more specifically that the spy was sharkie. You're acting like the scenario was that everyone was just writing off the original team as scum free, when that just wasn't the case. But I do think that there is spy motive in you trying to demonize me for this when before you were saying that it was less likely for me to call Vivax as scum. Mostly based on how weak and inaccurate the bold statement is that caused you to flip that idea. | ||

Sharkie looks overwhelmingly town in so many of his posts as does Silverika, and the amount Vivax has invested in this game plus his usual tunnelvision suggests pretty strongly that he's town to me as well. The main argument to defend Grack is that he could've failed the first mission and sharkie would've been blamed, but since that's what everyone would expect him to do as spy it's the perfect thing to pad your towncred with down the line. It creates a much higher chance to be on two missions. I actually think that's a pretty reasonable POE. But pretend for a second that I am town and you know that I am town. Which one of the three is mafia? | ||

The first is that the reasons to townread Grack for me has always been what he's done rather than how he's done it. The two reasons to townread Grack beyond some of his content are that the first mission passed when he could've failed it and let the blame hit you, and that he scumread vivax when he could've joined the sharkie/rtan hate train. The first can be explained by the fact that if he's a spy, grack is probably their carry. Failing the first mission is more likely to get him scrutiny down the road as many people have used this argument to call him town. The second I believe comes from TMI. He knows you're resistance and reading what you've posted it looks really townie to him, plus it seems like something that spies are unlikely to do which has been the foundation of his townread. The second is that all the three others have done things I find much more unlikely to come from scum. Silverika has pushed the thread forward a myriad of times and his reads have been rigid at times yet flexible at others, most notably in their return just now where he got off the rtan/sharkie is def spies train to re-eval that. They aren't in a rush to draw a conclusion either. I went through their filter a bit yesterday and found it impossible to see a spy narrative there. Vivax is harder to explain and simple at the same time. He sucks at scum and unless he has a strong team is unlikely to try hard. Additionally, the weird things he's done just don't have the predictable townread consequences that grack has. Forcing yourself not to be on a team even when everyone TR's you doesn't make sense for scum. He also feels like he was way too smug about "catching" us which I have difficulty seeing coming from scum Vivax. Overall I still think that Vivax/Artanisoul are the scummers. Look at the way that Artanisoul is interpreting my actions compared to the way he interprets Vivax's actions. Grackaroni is town reading the person who I view as obvious town instead of trying to push the blame onto him like Vivax/Silverika were doing? It must be TMI. He's just trying to get town read by doing things that spies are unlikely to do. Vivax attacks people for including themselves in their teams and then follows up by not including himself in his team? That seems like something that spies are unlikely to do, so he's probably town. Also I don't think the description of Vivax's scum play is entirely accurate. He had a strong scum game just recently in Haunted Mansion. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/mafia/513523-haunted-mansion-3?user=Vivax&page=5 | ||

I got this idea because I was feeling that sharkie and Silverika were very likely town. If the first team is all town, there has to be some reason for it to have gone through so easily. Vivax/you make the most sense as scum who might vote for the mission because you two shaped the mission by selecting sharkie and were the overwhelming choices to be added to the next mission. So my guess was that Vivax wasn't able to add himself because he didn't want to look like a hypocrite after all of the griping he did earlier. He didn't want to flip his read on you, so he didn't add you. And the third scum probably didn't look good enough to add. Otherwise I basically have to conclude that Silverika is scum. Which seems increasingly possible. | ||

Plus I feel like spies are a little bit incentivized to oppose one another in this setup so that everyone in town wants to side with at least one of the spies. Think of the game where Tumble/I were mafia and the town split down the middle into two opposing camps. After Tumble got lynched we were able to lynch a bunch of his supporters. I kind of think a similar strategy is ideal here to gain the trust of the most people. | ||

There's also just the randomness of Vivax's accusation against you during day 1, which goes along with what I said to Sicklucker. And I'm not sure why you're calling me out for not calling you town while saying that Vivax is town because he wouldn't be calling you scum as mafia. But anyway. . . I would like to see some Silverika games. | ||

1) Silver/Sharkie seem really likely town 2) Therefore, Vivax must be scum 3) But then the votes for the first mission wouldn't make sense 4) Unless the team was both Vivax & Artanisoul, in which case it could be perfectly viable for scum to approve. 1 implies 2. 2 implies 3. 3 implies 4. Now, by the time I get to 4 I think it's reasonable to say that maybe I should just reconsider 1, which is what I'm doing now. You guys are saying that I should think be thinking that Vivax is on a team with Sharkie/Silver. That's possible but it isn't where my logic for Vivax being scum came from in the first place. If I'm considering one of Sharkie/Silver scum (Silver) then I would just re-evaluate my Vivax read entirely. | ||

As for the 'unlikely to come from mafia and therefore it must come from mafia', it was more related to the fact that those actions have defined most people's reasons for townreading you including my own. It was more explaining how they can make sense from scum which felt like a more reasonable explanation than I could think of for any of the other people on the mission. And I don't know why that is quite honestly. Beforehand people were town reading me for my posts and then people leaned into that WIFOM reason to town read me. Now I'm only hearing about that as a reason for why I could be town, while ignoring everything before that. | ||

There are plenty of people (you) saying that Vivax wouldn't have chosen not to put himself on the mission as scum. So there isn't much reason to treat the two "unlikely for scum to do" things differently. | ||

Scum tends to pass the first mission; it's the fact that Sharkie was contested that people believe it's a valid argument to make. The reasons for the actions you'd have taken as a spy are more clear than Vivax, and I don't see Vivax as a flashy scum player. Especially the threatening to put us on the mission instead of Sharkie seems like something that doesn't click with me on that. Do you still believe we're mafia? Not particularly. | ||

One, TW - I'm not even on the mission. Two, Silverika - I've said how I was going to vote for most of the missions at this point. I don't want the mission to pass.

Obviously I didn't add myself because I'm currently the #1 spy read. I spent about an hour reading through both Sharkie's and Vivax's filters. I think that Sharkie is a lot less likely to be scum because his filter is much more passionate and shows more emotion. It doesn't read like a first time forum scum player's filter I pretty much have to conclude that it's Sharkie's Vivax carry + two shitty scum players theory. Yes, it's bold to not add yourself and instead propose an all town team, but it makes more sense to me than sharkie scum. Vivax probably overestimated (or actually maybe correctly estimated) the amount of shit that he would have gotten by adding himself to a team after everything that he had said earlier in the game. I chose Superbia because Vivax was debating between Superbia and Sharkie for his nomination and I think he could have added a scum to the team he would have. I also think Vivax's reaction to me accusing him was very scummy, where he immediately tried to discredit me by looking for any contradiction he could find in my filter. | ||

Yeah I am - minus the last part because you aren't a fucking mind reader and they never suggested a team until after the first mission passed and you gained cred from selecting the pasing mission. You & Silver were both very confident that the scum was Sharkie and you were both connecting him with Artanisoul.

As opposed to connecting ourselves to each other by hard defending each other. | ||

Just lol. lol I have been thinking of this one and also considering just you town and Sharkie mafia because you're making more effort than you usually do as scum. (For the you/Sharkie I remembered that both of you were trying to put Artanisoul in the new team in place of the other.) I'm pretty tired of running in circles with my reads though after every time I argue with someone. And I think that scum has to have some kind of carry right now to encourage so many people not making any effort to get on a team, and I'm not really convinced that Sharkie is enough to get behavior like this. | ||

Do you think that I have to be scum because I couldn't possibly think that you would choose an all town team as mafia? Because both Artanisoul and Silver at some point have said that you were the 2nd most likely mafia after me from the failed mission, so if they knew I was town they would have the same thought process. Can you give me one reason for why I'm scum besides I called you scum? That's really not a good enough reason to justify flipping from hard scum reading Sharkie/Artanisoul into scum reading me and town reading Artanisoul immediately after. My change was at least based on a change in my read on other people plus PoE. And again, I don't think this setup makes for the best scum hunting. I haven't seen a single bit of analysis in this entire thread that I have liked. | ||

7/8 players in this game aren't town reading me. Straight up, I do like that Sharkie is defending me. I think this is how things should have been interpreted: On February 09 2017 16:38 sharkie wrote: That is true. I cannot give you negative points for something Grack had asked you to link. I am just a player who goes into The resistance with a clean plate all the time. I look how players play THIS game and don't think of old games at all. So each time one of you mention that vivax is not the sort of player to do "X" my suspicion of him grows. Because what would be the best play as a spy? Exactly, play like you have never played before. That throws you off completely. I wish I had the assistance of players who have clean slates like me to help analyse vivax. From a neutral point of view everything Grack has said makes complete sense to me and is not the play of a spy. My biggest point in favour of Grack is: he defended me (that I don't care about personally) and accused a completely new combination of spies (rtani + vivax). Why should any spy do that? He could have just joined the cool guys (silver and vivax) into bullying sharkie and rt as spies and just enjoy his status as top resistance player. But he didn't do that! No way any spy would ever do such a play. That is self suicidal. You really expect a seasoned player like Grack to 1) Don't fail the first mission to gain credibility in order to prepare for a bigger con. -> Yes, absolutely. That is very good spy play!! 2) After 1, throw everything into the wind and go defend sharkie and accuse vivax/RT -> No way in hell, not even a n00b player would do that. I'm in a difficult situation of having to find one of you/Sharkie/Vivax as spy. None of you seem all that likely scum to me. You can look at motive for trying to kick you off the mission. I'm telling you right now though that this current mission is going to fail. So we should start looking at who the spy is on this team RIGHT NOW. | ||

Because I'm even wavering on him. But I'm in the same position as you. Sharkie is playing an extremely good game for a new scum player. You guys are active and seem townie, but I think there's potential that you guys are just strong scum players. Vivax putting through an all town mission just doesn't seem all that likely. I don't think I would jump around with my reads this much as scum. It's a lot of work to fake. | ||

Who else besides himself and SL could he put in if he goes with the theory that I'm not scum? Literally only TW/LS and emc. And he was pressured into putting SL in instead. As I already said, I didn't have that pressure. You disagree, but it looked to me very much like I'd be on the next team if mine got rejected. Btw I want a stance on you how you realize that you have to at least revisit your read on me while sharkie doesn't. It's one of the things I aimed for when I voted reject. I think Sharkie's explanation actually makes sense. If you have teammates that aren't being town read than you have to fail multiple missions. Putting yourself onto a team was going to hurt the way people read you since you attacked people for putting themselves on their team. Even if the 3 person mission passed and was sabotaged it would put you at a disadvantage against me/Silverika for the subsequent missions. I didn't really think that you were a shoe-in for the next mission, but if you really thought so then it doesn't look great that you were trying to raise doubts about the mission based on my list post and then backtracked when people weren't agreeing with you. I do agree that people re-evaluating their reads a lot is a townie trait compared to having static reads. | ||

Sicklucker did not make much of an attempt to get on this mission. For him to be the lone scum sabotaging this mission we have to assume that scum just lucked into getting a sabotage with no real plan of their own. These teams where your reads are currently based don't seem very likely at all to me: Grack/Sharkie/SL Sharkie/EC/SL Can we really conclude that You/Silver/Artanis are all town and every townie just started vouching for the final scum who has pretty much been a shitter all game long? He made really little effort to get on this mission. You guys just insisted on him being sent. | ||

At least people start opening their eyes to Grack. Totally sad that it took so long for people to realise that he isn't a spy.. Vivax is totally abusing the meta here, do you even notice how often he keeps mentioning that this is not his way to play a spy -> ergo being that he isn't a spy! That is like the lamest excuse ever. Some of you at least realised that two of our worst players in the game are the other two spies but don't see that as a reason how vivax is forced to play the game. Just ask yourself if you were in his position, how would you play the game? You need to fail three missions, and your teammates will never have the prospect of entering a team nomination successfully. What would you do in that position? Stop thinking about the player but about the situation. Look at his defenses when he was accused by rt, me or grack. He got even defense bonus points from ec/tw - I'd never want that. He is also the only player who has still refused to flat out call ec a spy. The only thing I might agree with him is that tw might be a good player as super only appears in the game when it benefits his position as a potential spy player. Also the mere prospect of Grack AND me being spies and not failing the first mission is so ridicilous. This is as ridicilous as his earlier "sure thing" of rt and me being a spy team together. I think his words back then were "if this mission fails, rt+sharkie is a sure thing." Do you even realise that he framed our second most reliable resistance player (rtani) a spy? How the heck can that be ignored? | ||
