Day 1 seems confusing, how exactly does the town apply pressure to mafia if they have no information?

Activity is generally more advantageous to town than mafia, so killing lurkers generally ends up as a good policy in the long run.

As this is day 1, I propose everyone is suspicious until they post at least once.

Also it seems to me that if golbat was a failmafia in his last game, he probably got set as town in this one.

Discuss.

I guess I misunderstood. I thought golbat was a mafia that got lynched d1.

I'm really just trying to get some opinions going.

Hapahauli was very eager to be suspicious of me based on my ignorance of prior events.

Could be mafia sowing confusion.

I'm suspicious of you as well, because it's pretty common to be suspicious of someone who tries to start discussion using obviously false information. Because that could also be mafia sowing confusion.



Throw out my first statement, it was clearly misinformed and not useful.

As I am somewhat of an unknown quantity let me explain that if my accusations seem random, its because they pretty much are (at this point). It seems that d1 is the time to try to get people on record so that you can have a body of evidence to work off of in the future.

Overeager townie apologizes.

I'm pretty sure this post is a joke but this does not show a town mentality

I'm high as balls. I don't know how much of this makes sense. If you need a translator ask tomorrow


This is scummy. Discuss.

Care to enlighten us on why? Also you didnt vote right.


He is sure that my post was a joke, but still suspects that I am scum at the same time. Scum Harry may intentionally mess up the quotes to make it more difficult for town, in which case I won't be joking. Town Harry would accidentally mess up the quotes and joke about not fixing the quotes.

So it seems to be a forced argument to show commitment and throw fake "reads" out there. This is scummy because scums have harder time coming up with genuine reads because they have to build a case on someone they know is town.


Your quote mishap seems pretty anti town. You were too lazy to fix your post or you're scum. Either way, you weren't helping town as much as you could.

Also, your discussion of fake reads is suspicious because you have voted for 2 different people with little to no evidence while FOSing 2 more. Seems to be the same thing you're accusing promo of.

Golbat's main contribution has been noticing my early flub. That points to an being an active townie or a mafia jumping on an early mistake. Worth watching but not explicitly a suspect.

So how is Golbat not beeing productive? Surely you can tell us why you think so instead of throwing out your "cautious" accusations. Has Golbat been less productive than you so far?


Meant to quote this on my last post. I still find synyster more questionable than golbat.
It is still quite early.

Synyster seems to fit the 'post just enough' mafia profile. His defenses have involved a lot of passive accusing against his attackers.

Prome- What do you think of hapa? Seems solidly town, but a gf play could be devastating, esp given that he has been an active and successful scum before.

YH was town in XXI and played as inexplicably as he is playing here. He voted for three people on D1 and unvoted one of them about a million times (rereading his filter I can't tell how many were because he wrote them wrong and how many were because he changed his mind). All three of his targets were town.

After reading this game, I'm convinced YourHarry has a secret DT role, the reverse DT.
Everyone he attacks is town, people he says are town are mafia.

He even breadcrumbed it in his in-post:
Hi guys, I am in as the detective


+ Show Spoiler +
This post was not serious, pls ignore.


not going to lie, I laughed. But this is a waste of time and space. How do you feel about him and his play? Is Harry town, null or scum in your eyes and why?

When I read his posts in this thread I saw him as my #1 scum read (though that does not mean too much, I don't have any realy strong reads yet).
Then I read his previous game and saw him flip green.

Now I just don't know what to think of him....
If he's town, his play makes no sense. If he's scum, his play makes no sense because it's TOO obvious.

I just don't know what he IS, what I know is that his play doesn't help town.

Also, sorry about the fluff, will try to not post random shit, but old habits die hard...


YH could be a good N1 detect target. Weird, inexplicable play from townies is dangerous and as scum it is a possible defense.

gf is godfather - therefore undetectable. Strat would be: elected godfather, become important and active townie, lead town around on a merry chase.
