I had the same impression as VisceraEyes, two guys very excited to get the game going and it's good to see. iamperfection's reason for giving DarthPunk an early town read was insufficient. The discord discussion is in bad spirit but mafia or town could bring it up. @Chezinu have you read your role? | ||

I don't want to spam the thread too much and I don't have anything noteworthy to add at the moment. I understand chezinu typically plays like this | ||

On the next level do you have anything based on the interactions between DarthPunk and iamperfection as a result of the discussion? | ||

Also going to try and shutup for at least 30 minutes before I shit up the thread too much but also yes bad vibes voting math both for the trauma in highschool and the unprogressive use of technology. I'll stop at nothing to ensure town wins, as president of this town it's my duty even if it means bowing to AI overlords. If not scum why fear the AI piercing your soul? That seems like a pretty decent analysis to me. | ||

Do I just overestimate Jake's cahones? I asked him specifically about iamp so it would be weird not to mention his name. | ||

I make awful meta reads and WILL make at least one post in all-caps...besides the one I've already made...before the game is over. Good to meet you. It's alright. Jacob voted me and couldn't be bothered to spell my name correctly. Rough entry for the new guy. I am familiar with the passion you bring, I watched you on video mafia back in the day. | ||

Both strong players so I think if there is a mafia in there it is only one and then its either two strong town players reading VE as town, which makes it more likely he is town. Or there is one mafia in the two of them and they are reading VE as town with the knowledge that he is. Summary then that VE is likely town. then rayn or marv both town or max one mafia. | ||

So in terms of his recent play, what i explained to koshi stood out to me. I didn't play in those games so I don't know exactly how it went, but what concerns me with this is that you have a large amount of data/experience from the past two games and now you are extrapolating a read based on a very small sample size in this game which, to me, doesn't seem to lean either way, at least not from an attitude perspective. I now have to decide if you sort of see yourself as the "marv whisperer" trying to make an early god read. Or are you trying to pocket marv which is more suspicious. | ||

Koshi due to his attempt to get himself lynched when he doesn't do that as mafia. Rayn because he actually trying to move things forward and trying to actually solve the game. Has koshi tried to get himself lynched before as either alignment? | ||

Sorry didn't mean to upset you. As far as my reads go I don't have anything new since my last post where I said VE was likely town and that one or more of marv and rayn are town. I have leanings either way but as a new player I don't have your confidence in analysing players. | ||

You could I suppose , but It seems unlikely to me that two mafia teammates would make a simultaneous town read where they piggy back off each other. Don't mafia teammates try to create seperation between each other typically? | ||

The first post would be fine if he just said "i dont think Koshi would want to get lynched as mafia like this", but instead he bases it on a meta on Koshi where Koshi has never wanted to be lynched as mafia. This does not go well with the fact that his meta suggests that "Koshi doesn't do that as any alignment". Aka it should be a null tell for him, and especially the first post he made suggesests that he should not have that conclusion about Koshi's alignment based on what he gives as a reasoning. Have to say this is my interpretation aswell, hence why i asked the question. Should be a null read. However I agree with marv and think his qualification about koshi in a previous game does add some weight, There is obviously a marv attitude DLC that I haven't unlocked yet. I would say its an uneven entry from LS so not a town read for me | ||

If I had to share a list of town/wouldn't lynch with some surface level reasons VE - town for reasons earlier. Rayn - I've agreed with a lot of his posts, I think the line of questioning on LS was reasonable. Marv - He's a strong player he's given some good tempered responses that give a new perspective. his defence of LS and myself from Darth was good in a situation where he could have ignored it or added pressure. He has also been given some soft town reads from other players. Koshi - Defended LS when he didn't have to, i feel like he's been more active than most. Darth - This is tricky as I don't want to be like "you called me scummy so fuck you"... Maybe that's why he attacked me after I spoke out on his weak marv points. I feel like his push on LS came after other people had already questioned LS but it seems to be for different reasons so. Maybe it feels like going for low hanging fruit with the new guy and then LS who made a weak entry....I'm rambling here. Either way I can't tell if Darth is scummy or just having a slightly different town game to me. being a very active but maybe less logical. He is driving things forward and giving thoughts and information out so I wouldn't want to lynch him today. There is a lack of activity from several players, I haven't evaluated people with less than a page of filter. I didn't like Vivax or the LS entry. LS might be a good lynch as with the game split it would give some potential information. | ||
