I'm just wary of people that are clearly leagues above me in playing forum mafia since they can seem super towny as I'm pretty bad at determining what is scummy behavior vs. what is overly aggressive town behavior etc. etc.

from what I saw from Damerion last game he seems good enough to bamboozle me, so I'm just keeping him at a hard null like I usually do with HF

It's a very addicting feeling once you think you've caught a mafia.
A rush of emotions compelling you to lynch me.

Then comes the hard part of convincing others that you are right.
Why can't they just see and understand all the obvious telltale signs that you are seeing?

It's an eternal struggle. Don't give up if you truly believe it.

It's ok to be wary. No need to expend any more energy on him.
You don't need to lynch him right now.
If he's playing and contributing, leave him be for a couple days. Gather more information before you make up your mind.

Strong players are good at masking themselves, so whatever clues you think you see now could just be false positives.
You need to catch them by observing them over a longer period of time.

Mm.
So you think I'm possibly scum.
You should try asking me some questions to further determine my alignment.
Maybe pick a certain post that you felt was really scummy and make me explain it.

instead of passively finding something more appealing, you should try to pressure someone you find scummy (ruxxar, who else?) and generate content

bc the string of posts you made don't really look good to me. like way scummier in my eyes than ruxxar due to calling him out for being fluffy, but not doing much yourself

So you like the guy who agrees with you about damerion.


I don't like the points he make too much (throwing out reads is ok) but I like him for his passion. His other posts are a bit too nervous looking for me though so I take it back.

Minorly.


So... your current read of the guy is what?


Enigma.

So you're my coach now?
II think the questions you asked conversion about conversion about damerion and holyflare about lonelyclock just have pretty obvious answers and could be just there for the reason that the people see that you ask questions.

flood control appeared and I have to wait...
I would have posted this immedieatly otherwise

? No need to be so defensive. I'm just explaining my thoughts, on my opinion, in my brain, as to why you can be scummy

see how that works?

I don't care if you post immediately.

wasn't there a way to request flood control be turned off for new players in mafia?

The "you're my coach now" was a question to ruxxar. I actually liked your post and see it as a tip.

Let me ask you a question Krogan.

Which is more scummy
To post fluff or
To not post anything at all

Where does mafia thrive?
What kind of environment in the game is optimal for mafia?
A lively game or a silent game.

I don't want an answer. I just want you to think about it.

It's a newbie game, so I'm taking the liberty of giving you some friendly advice.

By all means, do your own thing.

--

See, the thing is that activity by itself is not a sole measure of towniness.
And if you asked me, I wouldn't say that I'm even trying very hard to solve the game right now.

Right now you're undermining the intelligence of the rest of the players in the game by assuming that they don't see that I'm posting fluff.

I'm pretty sure they do know.
And if they don't know, then I can confirm that is exactly what I'm doing.

Your post was a good idea, don't get get me wrong, but in my experience it's a terrible scum indicator.

Yeah... But everybody knows that.
So you're just telling me that a good mafia strategy would be not to post at all if avoidable. But in the long run this would be really obvious, wouldn't it?
Your basically saying everyone who posts a lot has to be town.
With every post you make you let my suspicion grow.
BTW I think it's really funny how you defend yourself with giving advice to me.

I can confirm you're posting irrelevant trash that has obvious answers and leads the game nowhere, Ruxxar.
