I may be new to this site but am pretty experienced, there weren't any mafia games going on on the other sites so i came to this one, i know how to play and all the rules i just look like a noob because i am new to this site.

But if you wont let me play in this one i would understand >.>


Sorry but I really think you should go through a newbie game first



I should probably step out as well then, as this is my first forum game. I'll let you make the choice, as I would love to play but respect the rules enough to understand that I shouldn't be playing this.

Cheers ♥


you've played hundreds of epicmafia games and have hundreds of hours on video mafia

you're fine

I have returned

i. Alakascum

[image loading]


Last game I played with Alakaslam, he was town and he trolled very differently - it made me want to policy lynch him because he really didn't ever explain his reads on Day1 and just trolled a lot like he wanted to be read scummy. This game, his early trolling read more like he was trying to be funny while still appearing to contribute. Not much to go on, which is why it was a simple gut read.

ii. First Triumvirate

[image loading]

I early read Robik as town because it lined up with his town video meta. It most mostly him being hyper-confident, even borderline aggressive, in his reads and not giving a fuck what other people thought. As the game has progressed, this condition has grown more serious and my town read on him grown more confident.

I early read Killing as town because it also lined up with his town video meta, although it was much more tentative than my read on Robik. He came out of the gates ambitiously like an enthusiastic youth aspiring to find and slay scum and make a name for himself. This lined up with one of his town styles, not one of his mafia styles. As the game has progressed, I've grown more comfortable reading him as town because his logic/reasoning lines up with how I would expect him to be making reads, most specifically, on Robik and myself - barring his townread of VE for trying to break up a fight, which was dumb.

I early read Boone as town for the same meta read from video play-style. This was the most tentative of the three, but as town, she sometimes behaves in what typically might be considered scummy (like being apologetic in her first post or letting everyone know "I'm worried guys it's my first game! [hint: IM TOWN]") - especially since she expressed nervousness pre-game about it being her first forum game. I was sympathetic at first, but then it all went wrong.

iii. The Heist

[image loading]

Now, I wasn't by any means sure of these four reads. However, I had a plan. I could post them without reasons and get lots of reactions from the town that could potentially be useful for myself or for other townies in the future (it dragged on a little long but w/e).

Later in the thread, Killing pointed out that Slam seemed to change his disposition entirely from my initial scumread of him, but I personally felt like he was unphased/motivated if anything. Further, he seemed to bring up what was a good case for scumreading Boone (her meta aside). I liked him more after this.

iv. The Death of Crassus

Hey guys! sorry I got here late, I see we've decided to let RNGsus pick our lynch. I want/ed to play with VE, so I'm going to just wait before jumping on the bandwagon if that's alright with you guys.

Do I just read every DM person scummy? Each one is reading the opposite of their town game. This is so weird. I'm usually the one who clears everyone ever and this game I just find everyone scummy. This is not a good sign.

Fwiw that boonetown quote is textbook scum

Textbook scum


so, you're attempting to prove 2 things right now from what i can gather, 1) you have no idea what 'text book scum' means AND 2) you don't know how to read people that you've never played with.

I was actually attempting to be funny with my first post while at the same time letting everyone know I wasn't down to just lynch someone based on RNG. I guess I'm not as funny as I thought, and having an opinion that differs from the rest, is seen as scummy here. FML, I should stick to video mafia.

CAN'T YOU READ THE TONE OF MY VOICE!?


Basically, everything underlined lead me to begin questioning my read on Boone from "aw town Boone why do you say these things?" to "holy shit is she scum?". It was really defensive I felt even for her. So I did the vote trick again to see how she reacted.

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=444554&currentpage=12#227 felt over-defensive, fluffy, and borderline "arguing against playstyle" as Slam noted.

Ultimately from their interactions, I came to have a light town read on Slam and a light scum read on Boone, which I still hold now. The only thing that's made me second-guess scumreading her is when she outed her QT thread for reasons that she was afraid of being manipulated in it by mafia and having it hurt town.

On the off-chance that you are town Boone, you should re-evaluate your meta-read on me based on

You know better than to vote so fast on something so small.

because voting in this is very different than voting in video mafia, especially when we are using a plurality lynch system. There is no risk of a misslynch from voting early or freely because you can always unvote.

Templar you die if you don't convince me you're town either here or in the thread. Just putting that in here since it's already out there.



Honestly, it wasn't me trying to look paranoid or me being paranoid. I thought it would be a good icebreaker and maybe even mildly funny, but VE took it oddly seriously.

He also did something really scummy in the foundation chat (of which I am a part) in coming in and saying "I know both of you are scum, don't even talk to me" as his very first act. My first reaction to being chosen as one of the foundation thingys was "Hmm I guess I better go check the OP to see if it's possible scum are in here....looks like it's possible, better be careful" and I'm town. My first reaction was NOT that I was certain scum were allowed to be in the Foundation chat. The only people who should feel that way as their first reaction should be scum - because they know scum are allowed in the chat.


Actually, the bold was my first reaction too. Which is why I asked before I posted anything. I understand getting voted for lurking too much, but you're picking at straws with that one.

Anyways, I'm here for a while - I know thread will have questions about my other reads.

TL;DR
TL;DR
TL;DR - Top town is Robik. Town read on Killing too. Light town on Slam but it's more tentative. Still read Boone as mafia but there's still like 23 hours for me to evaluate shit.

There is no content from either of you in the QT either. I just shared it with everyone though since you weren't interested in shedding any light on the situation.

I thought the way you argued with Dandel earlier and cluttered up the thread with meta crap was scummy at first, but then you kept doing it even after people kept pinging you so I read you as more of a reckless townie than scum right now.

So who is mafia? I don't care about your townreads on DM people because it's the easiest thing you can write an essay about. I don't care why you had a scumread on Slam and why you did change your mind.

You basically wrote a big post about something that says very little.


People I'm currently suspicious of/things that struck me as scummy:

Boone - For reasons stated before by myself and others. It's likely she slipped up early on, but I'll need to see more of her reads before I make her my final vote.

Some other potential candidates depending on how the day plays out -

VE - Early on I thought things like this were weird:

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=444554&currentpage=9#171 lot of fluff responding to someone else's question has me a little curious about him early on. Later on his reason for voting me felt forced and weak - very scummy in my eyes.

Palmar
Lots of fluff posts that _look_ pro-town on the surface without actually contributing to finding scum. It's a lot of asking people to contribute to find scum

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=444554&currentpage=13#256 (calls him town after a bunch of people already make the read, convenient that you give him that softball and then just agree with him anyways)
http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=444554&currentpage=13#258 (another useless question asked by you that he answers with a lot of fluff that doesn't actually contribute towards finding scum)

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=444554&currentpage=13#260 (not from palmer but another useless question from you. his response is another fluff post but it was a fluff question to begin with. where you went with it is just fluff)

Killing sort of pointed similar thoughts in one of his posts, which is why I townread him more (http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=444554&currentpage=17#336)

[red]You[/r]

Your questioning of Palmar was pretty scummy and you not reading my post properly is a little scummy as well, but I somewhat understand the criticism in your current post. I still don't like the early bit, or your fucking vote on me like I'm the best lynch.

Dandelion
The dumb argument he had with JAT around page 15 and Robik later on felt like mafia just filling the thread arguing useless stuff with stubborn town.

http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/postmessage.php?quote=337&topic_id=444554
Not even accusing him, just lightly throwing suspicion on him. Can't remember if someone else pointed it out or not.

I know he's been called a trolly player but this game it's more like a mafia spreading chaos that fills up the thread with confusion and misdirection.

We need to lynch GGTeMpLaR because he wasn't doing anything and when he was called out for it he wrote a big pile of crap. Apparently there indeed was a buried "i changed my mind on Slam" between all the crap but the point still stands that the post is inceribly hard to read and it says basically nothing.


I gave reads

I explained reads

I explained my thought process

Half the town asked me to do it

wtf ? I guess you could call the pictures crap if you want to be a stickler but it really wasn't a lot of text or hard to read at all.

Oats did you find my post useless or hard to read or was I concisely (aside from fat pictures) answering what half the town asked of me.

Slam do you honestly still think both that Boone is mafia and that I am mafia with her, or do you just scumread me alone now? I don't even follow your vote anymore.
