RIP Palmar.

I'm actually sad about iNcontroL. Binging on all the videos though. Good stuff from the community.

I see Coag folded from all that pressure he got. 1 mafais down.

Pandain for me is borderline policy.

The only time I remember playing or reading a game he was in, he was town but I was certain he was scum. This game is completely forgettable. So, I guess that could be scum points.

Chez. Well I could vote Chez off the island. I don’t think he’s readable.

Original Message From Chuiu:
Lol, I'm glad you guys are still playing this game. I had fun with it for a while but stopped playing when I became detached from visiting forum boards. I love that you guys are still using the banner I designed forever ago too.

Sorry I responded so late to this, as I said I no longer visit these forums. I only came back to reminisce a bit because iNcontrol passed away recently.

Lord alive, the man who invited Chezinu.

Lord Brown Izhu- can you remind me how to spell your full name?

Lord of the Brown, leader I have desired to follow, do you know who introduced me to mafia?

We will invite him to coffee, we love coffee

Does Chez love coffee? Is it not a comfortable brown?

Slam you’re talking to someone (me) who doesn’t actually believe that an individual being right in this game matters as much as a host of other things. You have an 80% chance of being right on any given townread. That’s high enough that psychologically speaking everyone will think their own townreads are great and when they get validated they’ll wonder why everyone else is crazy for not seeing what they do. Even being aware of this I fall into that trap all the time.

idgaf if you were right once, twice, or three times in a game. Many times the optimal play is to get rid of the least collaborative player regardless of their alignment because then people can actually pool their reads and work the puzzle out because even if that one person they deleted is a genius, if they’re a genius asshole no one was going to listen to them anyway.

You may dislike groupthink but this is literally a game that proves the power of groups that work collaboratively versus the futility of individuals who ultimately are more likely to overestimate their own abilities. If you cannot articulate your reasons for thinking things and convince others then for all intents and purposes you may as well be flipping coins. None of the rest of us can tell any difference and none of your posts establish to us that you’re worth paying attention to.

Think about all the best town players on this forum. Foolishness, Radfield, kita, sandroba, syllogism, marv (when he wasn’t burned out like me and being a dick hahaha). All of these players have good reads, yes, but they work very well with others, and almost never get lynched, because they are genuinely collaborative. Compare to people who probably have good reads about as often but are terrible collaborators and you’ll see the stark difference in team outcomes.

I never played with Ver. Incognito yes, one game only though...I think. Or maybe that was me cohosting.

I love BC and think he’s a great scum player, probably top 5 scum. I think his town play is average and he’d probably agree with me. Like me, BC is prone to catch on logic errors and people going pants-on-head which often distracts from scum hunting because tiniest act illogically all the time. Also we both share a good rage every now and then.

Replace BC with Ace and exactly the same thing applies IMO.

P.S. fuck coffee

Actually fuck anything that isn’t water
