A disfunct mafia team can be used to your advantage when you guys were mad at eachother as early as day 1, which is where I would find most of the alignments in the game at a later time Amen Shame this is true. | ||

I'd also like to commend austin on continuing to play in what has to be the towniest play-style and player in this game. Hats off to you austin, a true example of how to play when you have the veteran role. | ||

Clean hosting all around, with the minor exception of marv not being around at endgame, which he gave reasonable notice for.

He was really obviously town but his posts are so verbose that it deters people from reading through his filter, which is a shame because his reads were probably the best of any townie this game. (Led the charge on Thrawn and BC). The filter was bordering on Rayn territory haha. | ||

People didnt need to read his posts thoroughly to understand what he was saying, the jist of it was always there and he oozed town all over. If 1 or 2 other players would have been inspired by him to go try-hard on the game it could have turned out very differently for us. It wasnt meaningless spam or arguments with other players either, it was very often the results of filter dives, and while they were longish posts he didnt take 2 pages to go through 1 filter (See Slam's phone-post shenanigans). | ||

I agree with you, but at the same time if you have to convince players like coag that aren't going to put much effort into the game then you really have to do what you can to make them willing to sheep you. | ||

Rayn your reads and instincts are pretty good, you just dont stop to actually decide what it is that you want to do once you've "caught" scum (sometimes not always scum but thats not the problem). You keep going full steam into anyone who crosses your path, and while being suspicious of everyone is probably the prudent choice, you alienate the town when people learn that by disagreeing with you, they will probably be called scum for it. I would sincerely like to ask, do people tend to re-read their OWN filter through the game? I'm not sure if its an ego thing, but if you get lynched, enough wisdom of the crowds has happened to decide you were scummy. Some of that is mafia influenced but YOU are responsible if you get lynched. So many players have thrown hissy fits over "well I'm so obv town so FUCK YOU guy". That attitude is complete bullshit and I hope people learn to get off their high horse and take a look in the mirror once in a while. Go read Pandain's ppstgame self-reflection for a good template of how to take an objective stance on your own play. | ||

It's not like I want to be crap at this, I simply don't know how to play better. And saying "you play against your wincon" and "you are shit" does not exactly help me get better. I was also thinking maybe it would be a good idea to make an exception for LM to play a few more newbie games if he would like. Nothing against LM, but if he's not confident enough in his play to post freely in the game when there are a lot of veterans than maybe it would do him some good and make him more confident. | ||

Do I look more confident? Then I am very confident in my acting skills | ||

Also, some of the things you said in the QT made me think that you had to be of an alignment and it being clear as day but me being dumb, like how you doubted my alignment when I said that I'd probably get RBed for presuming there's a RBer in play. I chose the wrong side, unfortunately. I'm pretty happy with the game though and how I shot Mocsta and had a strong scumread on BC. Just need to get more vocal on my reads, though I also feel that how much your reads get respected is dependent on your status as veteran as well for a lot of players. I'm not going to put all the blame in that, but it's definitely a factor. Hope people will listen to me more in future games ^_^ | ||
