But don't stop too much because townies are bad, and not being bad makes people scum. How does that even make sense? Yeah, people who don't care who get lynched are more likely to be scum. agree And yeah, people who are certain they've got the right D1 lynch are bad/dumb, because they're probably wrong. agree Town players should care who the lynch is, and try to get their preferred target into the Noose. agree And then they should expect to be wrong, NO and see that player flip Town. They should not prefer the lynch then. Say what you mean, not demonstrative hyperbole. Yes, if people reach higher understanding, they should be open to being wrong as it is rather likely. But they should not vote for something they expect to be wrong, as that is playing into scum’s hands. They should vote for who they expect to be scum, but be willing to consider a world where they are wrong due to the likelihood of that. But I was dead certain of your alignment quite early last game, more certain than I usually ever am, and I was also quite right. But since I did it so early, I purposely second guessed myself a LOT. Did that really improve your opinion of me? Or did it give you opportunity to manipulate my thinking into almost lynching Holyflare instead? Narcissism is really unhealthy and your next step toward the same rep here that you have on SB and elsewhere is basically ditching Narcissuses. Because both the math AND the game mechanics work together to give you a Day 1 mislynch. Sure- but never tell Han Solo the odds. Nor me, or most of TL Mafia. It’s like playing Star Wars battlefront; Heros and Villains is a very different experience from the main game proper. And unless someone on the scum team seriously BOTCHES the Phase, a mislynch is exactly what you'll get. hold on now we are the site with the good scum players. ... Well, or I’m wrong and everyone on your site is more rigid to combat the amazing potential scum play? Idk. I was meta lynched too early. | ||

This is a literally impossible statement to make without a mindset where I am lock town, cause as mafia I could have other reasons other than being bad for commenting about that post in the way I did. We can argue this to death but if you don't see it like I do, I can't help you. It was ... a joke. You typically go super hard down a rabbit hole of nonsense. I feel my genius is unappreciated I really like noobking , I can actually understand what he writes which elevates him above half the game. I have no reason to lynch him other than HF says he is playing like some other scum game. I don't like using that argument and I enjoy his posting so not lynching. I think there is a bit of a gang up here on NK and I don't like it, definitely scum in the people voting him. @DF I gave reasons why I found the persona scummy, Then I noticed you had left exo off your town list after calling him smart to start with. I found that scummy at the time but I didn't go hard in the paint trying to lynch you. I just made early game observations. I questioned you about it and your response that exo went down in your estimation fits with the timeline because that is when he starts defending his moosy vote and not understanding my post. I'm not holding that against you anymore.

Thanks for reminding me of the other point on KSC. I didn't buy his explanation either. I'm tentatively gonna say you're Town You saw it but didn't buy it, so what is your problem with the explanation exactly? The way I caught you last time we played was I started pressuring you and you went full retard trying to OMGUS me and call me scum in return. Seems to be happening again. My lynch pool is moosy,df,dis and slam as a last resort. Everyone is saying exo is town and our fight was TvT , upsetting if true but If I try and get a lynch going everyone will just say he is stupid not scum and we get nowhere. Slam you took up an entire page with unintelligible nonsense. You’re lazy. But I won’t call you a damn fool because I’m self aware now. I am a bad communicator. | ||

What strategic desicions could knowing that help inform on D1/D2? Here's a strategic decision that would be informed on D2 by knowing how many mafia the game started with: WHO TO LYNCH. If you know how many members of the mafia there are, you know how many kills they can execute. Then you can see if any are "missing." If you don't know how many to expect, then a healer doesn't know whether to have added trust toward the target he healed. A roleblocker or jailkeeper doesn't know whether to have added suspicion toward their own target. Circumstantial evidence yielded by the night results will very often outweigh whatever inclinations players previously had, about who "seemed" town and who "seemed" scummy. Instead of the pure guessing game of Day 1, you have hard data to work with...IF you know how many mafia members there are. So it's CRITICAL information. Unfortunately, the OP doesn't even give us a RANGE of possible answers. There's literally nothing keeping this from being an 11/9 setup at this point. Or 19/1. And this is the beauty of smashboards. They play blue way better than we do folks. Listen, how did I know Noobking was scum? PASSIVE VOICE. But passive even for him. We usually are all very active voices, but his is more often passive. We are very much gone readers here. BUT HE IS HELLUVA LOT LESS PASSIVE. Consider that before lynching him. I dont want to lynch noobking except when Slam gives the go. Then I will want to lynch him with the heat of a thousand suns. Like, I don't understand any of what he said there, about "passive voice." But sure, when he gives the go....thousand suns. Also, you are mostly still killing it, this game. So keep up the good work. Not many can understand a prophet his divination. But we as mere mortals can only follow the direction his words lead us. However, we should not believe every spirit blindly, but test the spirits whether they are from God, because many false prophets have gone out in this world. Amen. Let us go forward and give test: I confess Jesus Christ is Lord of heaven and Earth. Go | ||

I DO find it odd that he so confidently named me town in this game. When people voting against me (like HF and Moosy) say they're doing so on the basis that I'm playing the same as the last game. They're right, I'm playing the same as the last game, because I just played my town game for 95% of the last game. HF doesn't seem to know anything about my Town game, and doesn't care. He's just "blah blah, same as other game, blah." Yet while I AGREE with the people voting against me that I'm playing the same as the last game, Alakaslam correctly labels me Town in this game, after all his "classic scum m8" crap from the previous game. Now yes, I pushed him off of his scumread on me in the prior game, and even had him voting against MY lynch target, eventually. But even so, the speed and accuracy of his townread on me here is cause for pause. However, I can't help you lynch him, cuz then he'll OMGUS me, and then once Slam gives the go-ahead, Koshi will lynch me with the heat of a thousand suns. And then I flip town, and people are sad. :D (In all seriousness, Slam is probably fine as a fallback option, with the likes of Rels. From your recent "remove from the lynch pool" list, the only one I disagree with is Rels. I would add to that "remove from the lynch pool" list by putting Tictock in it. I don't have any interest in lynching him. Oh, and me! I should be removed from it too. hehe. I also am not too excited about lynching Conversion, though he's been almost entirely useless, it seems. I can at least hope that he might be useful later. I can't hold out much hope for that in the case of like...Fecalfeast.) You’re blind. Gonna abandon this. | ||

You respond with this hf: On March 20 2018 17:00 Holyflare wrote: [red]Not really true. Mafia want to post anything they can under the guise of scum hunting. Posting that I'm not a role isn't helping mafia in ANY way, it doesn't further any kind of scum read since I'm vt or mafia and it's just a completely empty read with nothing said. Good scum read. In which you sound like you disagree with noobking (red) and then agree with him (green). Then you say "good scum read", when I don't really see him scumreading anyone, or is that referring to someone else? what am I missing? Ticktock says makes exo mafia for irrelevant post. I agreed with ticktock. Noobking says it doesn't make him mafia, in fact it makes him more likely TOWN because "it doesn't help mafia to post like that". I disagree with his premise that it makes exo town. I still agree with ticktock that it makes exo more likely mafia. It's an irrelevant post that has no real reason to post it for. It looks like he's scum hunting by posting a read but it's not actually a read. [red]Then noobking argues with me that it doesn't try and look like scum hunting instead of anything to do with exo's motivation for posting in the first place. Drawn down to semantics. Rather...perhaps I was just RIGHT? And Holyflare was WRONG. And Tictock was either wrong or scum. Yeah...that makes for an extremely simple explanation of things, in place of "TMI." But hey, if you want to claim "TMI" for my townread and defense of Exo, then you don't need to stop there. Keep digging in my filter, and I promise you'll find moooorrrre of it, because Exo was one of my Top 2 townreads in the whole friggin' game. If the original town indicator wasn't enough for others, I have no idea why they still wouldn't decide he was Town after the most convincing continuous string of dumbtown posts I may ever have seen. Page after page, he had me chuckling through a facepalm, and eventually rsoul got so fed up with him that she (while saying she didn't think he was scum) made a post that essentially read like "I don't want to tell you that you're an idiot who can't read....BUT...." I felt a little bit bad for her, but mostly I felt bad for Vivax, if Vivax was scum, and Exo was the guy he was going to try and push, that day. Because Exo's posting I felt made him a million percent lynchproof. It would have been doubly bad for scum Vivax because multiple players were saying that Exo and Kelsier (the other guy Vivax was pushing) appeared to be the same alignment. Such that Exo accidentally tripping and falling into a vat of neon green paint was going to render Vivax's other target lynchproof as well. Alas, Vivax was Town, so all this potential hilarity was for naught. Anyway, you acted bummed that your top townread (Vivax) was killed last night. I'm pretty much in that same boat...thanks to YOU. So if you're a Town vigilante, then you're one in the hole, with that shot. Try not to get yourself two in the hole by contributing to my mislynch today. How can I help you keep from doing that? Could you try and spew this sort of self-righteous word vomit outside the thread please? Literally 3 paragraphs of “told ya so” that added nothing to the game. Wrong. It's important to the game because it explains me continually treating Exo as Town (both throughout Day 1 and Night 1) without it meaning I have "TMI." The rationale behind me thinking that early post was town-indicative is relevant. How his exchange with rsoul made me upgrade him to even townier status is also relevant. It explains why during Night 1, I would encourage him to battle through his disappointment over the D1 mislynch, understand that we're expected to mislynch on D1, and keep working at the game. And why I chose him specifically to ask what he thought a town Vigilante should do, if there was one. I trusted HIM to provide an untainted, Town-motivated answer. As it turns out, I didn't like his suggestion of shooting disformation (because of the possibility of an actual mafia Veteran) so I explained that, in case there was a town Vigilante listening, who was waffling on what to do. But I at least trusted him to not try and lead the Vigilante astray in his answer. I certainly did not foresee that the player I was trusting to give untainted advice to the Vigilante might then be shot BY that Vigilante, as may have happened. (It's been mentioned already that a 4-man mafia team that contains a Vigilante could be fine for game balance, but I still have trouble explaining Exo as a kill target for that mafia Vigilante, which is why I am not worrying about mocsta yet for Day 2. If he's scum, he'll need to be caught later, imo) It loses its importance if you’re ignored for it. But it is what it is. | ||

Here are the 9 potential Town roles: Veteran, Roleblocker, Doctor, Jailkeeper, Role Cop, Vanilla Cop, Tracker, Watcher, Vigilante Every single one of them can help the Town catch scum, help the Town kill scum, or help the Town prevent kills by the scum....EXCEPT an exposed Veteran. If we assume disformation is a legitimate Town Veteran, then: barring a scenario where he becomes the "Town Jesus" that was described earlier, there is NO rush to eliminate him. He's been completely neutralized by virtue of claiming his actual role, instead of just saying he was blue. Cool, thanks for helping me understand why mafia would leave a claimed Veteran alive. Touching back on this as I read it. I’m not sure if it applies super well to Noobking due to his play style, but this type of mafia focused thinking raises red flags for me always. It’s the type of thought process that shows noob is thinking from a mafia POV. Every town player should be stepping back to think about things from a mafia POV from time to time. That's how counterintelligence works. This is what makes me want to see more of you ☺️ | ||
