About the meta game, I'd suggest reading recent games to get an idea of how things go down. Ongoing mini mafia X would be good because it's small and only has one completely new player so you'll get a microcosm of how games go. | ||

We know most people's meta, but we (for the most part) think that it doesn't help. We also frequently try to play completely different than what our perceived "meta" is, so trying to base decisions off it if isn't worth the risk, and usually get's a townie lynched. (Look at palmars and play in any game compared to PYP: Interesting. Same for me, actually) On November 18 2011 15:08 Meapak_Ziphh wrote: Kavdragon join the damn game, and grab your brother as well.

Unless Gmarshal tells me the secret to inventing time out of thin air, I'm barely going to have time to skim over the discussion. | ||

I used to not have time for mafia, then I started sleeping 4 or less hours a night. I now have time for mafia. Also a mild addiction to coffee.

My analysis of wiggles Meta is a really useful tool, the issue is people keep using "he is playing differently" rather than explaining how that reflects a change in the mentality of the player that can only be explained by a shift in alignment. Meta is a tool to be used in analysis, its not something that by itself is enough to incriminate someone. | ||

I know we haven't had the best scum teams on TL for a while, but I'm on something like a 7 game streak of pushing cases on mafia day 1 (as town), and every time I use almost nothing but meta. Once it stop working, I'll change my strategy. | ||

I look scummy virtually every game, but I'm only scum 1/3 of the time Also meta isn't going to be useful in a game with like a zillion newbies | ||
