Confirm what? TT's post that he made an hour ago is right there for you to read. What does asking that question solve? If anything, shouldn't you be asking me what I feel he hasn't addressed? Like I quoted the four instances where his read goes back and forth on obi and asked for specific posts that made him town read you at one point and scum read you at the next, and he replies that he doesn't have a clue how to read you, which doesn't help considering he gave "town" and "scum" reads at the time so he had to have been using some metric if the reads were legit. Same thing about the information lynch question. Then like the comment about why he wasn't upset about Shining nuking his town read or what made him read LT as town prior to the check, he replies that he thought Tube and LT were town. That wasn't my question. And like I said, I would have thought he would spend some time on deciding who to lynch today, but hasn't. I'd still like to hear from him about that if he is willing. | ||

For some reason my dumb thinkbrain went "he doesn't know how to read me so...is that actually an answer?" For some reason I still don't know if he addressed your post properly, like he glanced over it a bit and came up with an answer that makes sense on paper but really just misses the point entirely. It just kind of threw me for a loop because I couldn't really tell what happened between you two. /shrug | ||

Endgame Tictock as Town geript has been lynched. JudgeJudy as Mafia ritoky has earned a split win with 3P. Damdred as 3P Survivor Chezinu has earned a split win with mafia. ObiWanShinobi as Town Onegu and geript as Town rsoultin have been endgamed. Flips + Show Spoiler + Geript Once per game may move a vote from someone voting himself to a player of his choice, also grants a extra vote. You will show you are voting twice. You are Geript and like, you’re totally awesome. Like...just amazing. Like, who needs to find those scum players when you can cozy up to marv and find all those townreads. Like, you’re the king of townreads...and semi-maybe not so good metareads on possibly but most likely not scum. Totally! Like, novels are all the rage, man. And like you are always the worst lynch. Like next time maybe a fake cop claim will save you. Who needs punctuation? Upgrade: (hard) Must correctly townread 7 unflipped players in one post before EoD2 You’re like totally the bomb and did some amazing town-hunting! You have unlocked...1 shot unlynchable. Will be announced in thread you are unlynchable Ritoky Roleblocker 1 Nuke You’re one of those oddballs that mostly trolls as town and tryhards as scum. Nothing like communicating all your ideas in gif form! (Except of course when it counts and you need to write a big case to get that last mislynch rolling.) You’re the chameleon of scum, capable of taking point or lurking as needed, and no one else quite manages to delay his lynch as masterfully as you do while making that last-minute, scum-tastic ninja vote switch to keep your scum buddies safe. Just don’t claim a roleblock notification when roleblocks aren’t notified... Upgrade: (easy) Post a gif or picture So pretty! A picture is worth a thousand words, right? You have unlocked...1 shot guess a players role and kill them! Chez Flavor: You are Chezinu Isunizehc, leader of the house of brown. You are the most famous player on Teamliquid mafia. You recently tried to spread the brown to other sites but you always knew TL is the best and most important site. + Show Spoiler + House of Chezinu Weclome to the House of Chez! There are many schools of thought on how one must play the game of mafia. This thread will serve to establish the school of thought founded by Chezinu Isunizehc. Here one may post questions or scenarios to understand how the school would approach or solve a problem. Below I will summarize building blocks that this school of thought is built upon. As the topic is discussed, the content will be updated and modified for clarity I. The Unreadable Persona The importance of creating an unreadable persona is to protect your character from getting killed early game by people who can see right through you. If you live longer, you have more time to read other players and strategize. II. Reaction Reading The school’s primary methods of discovering a player’s role is through reaction reading. The most efficient technique is through private messaging where you can loosen the guard of your victim. You do this in fun. You start to make jokes and troll around to not only prevent the victim from reading you but to also cause their guard to be lowered. If they think you are just having a grand ole time, they will not be working hard to cover their face. That is when you ask strange and seemingly unrelated questions to get a read. There are many factors to consider when analyzing their reaction including their current mood, your relationship, thread events, and their mind. If private messages are not allowed, you will have to cause chaos in the thread in order to read this. This strategy may cause some dislike which will have to be combated by entertainment, which will be discussed in detailed later. Creating a fantasy world that includes the current events of the game is a great way to attract certain players. If you create a world where you hire employees, mafia may apply for jobs to either get inside information or to pose as a resourceful townie. It gives them an opportunity to post something in the thread if they don’t have anything productive to say. Reaction reading is also a great time to scare the mafia through taunts by claiming you know their roles both publically and privately. Let them know, that you know even if you do not. Also, act confident and pretend you are protected by a medic. This fluff will save you. III. Communicating Reads Unscathed The best method is to communicate your reads to a player whom you think is town. This way they can convince town to lynch your targets without you talking heat from mafia or town. Plus, they will trust for being selected to receive your reads. If private messages are allowed, you can simply explain your reads clearly to the recipient. If you cannot message them privately, you will have to find alternative means by posting in the thread without alerting other players. Encryption, code words, stories, stereograms, and riddles are of the most useful methods to portray one's reads without bringing too much attention to oneself (just make sure the recipient can understand the content of these messages). The attention these techniques will bring will be focused on your character and personality. Most people will just ignore the content of your posts and call the useless. However, whether one should use these techniques depends on the atmosphere of the game, which brings us to the next point. IV. Dynamics of the Game The game is always changing. The same strategy may not work twice. One must be flexible enough to adjust behavior in order to survive the maximum length of days. Studying the behavior of the players both in and out of the game is of utmost importance. You must monitor the atmosphere of the game to make sure your actions do not break the boundaries of the players or the host. V. Relationships Building great relationships with other players will further your lifespan. For it is easier to lynch a stranger than those closest to you. Be sure not to come across as a flatter. Bad guys do that. Be honest. If you truly <3 someone, let them know. It is ok to let someone know if they make you sad. Be real. Don’t get angry. Only pretend to be angry if it is funny. Be humorous. If you are entertaining the crowd, they will not want to see you leave. For the sole purpose of playing the game initially for most players is to have fun. Be fun. If successful, not only will you live longer, but the atmosphere of the game will change for the better (see point IV). Forming relationship will also help you enjoy your time during breaks when you are isolated in your room with no one to talk to. If you find yourself bored and lonely, you can create a thread like this (or interact in one) in order to prepare for your next upcoming game. For you know that when you leave, the threads will die and be bored without your entertainment. VI. Loop-hole Galore Once the game has started, it is good to read your role or the op at some point. When one does this is up to their own discretion. When looking at roles or the op, try to find loop holes. Strategies the host does not expect. You may find some powers that you can exploit. When in a crisis, always double check your roles and rules of the game to ensure there is a way out. You may find an unexpected role that can bus you out of a situation or find that you have an unlimited amount of ammo. However, the success of this method depends on the host (point IV). If your host is a rule follower, you will get bussed and be saved. If you host is a spirit follower, you may find yourself out of bullets. You must use caution and not let your creative mind bring you too much hope in a deadly hour. VII. Style before Victory Winning is not always easy. Winning with style is harder yet. Before you win a game, you must ask yourself. How do I want to win this? You want to be remembered for the fun you bring to the games and the style in which you win them. Winning the game as lurker is no fun at all, especially when you are mafia. Most of town will not remember that it was you who caused their demise, unless you send them the right message such as spelling GOSU with your night kills and sniping all of the blues roles. However, you must not limit your style to secrets. The reward of winning tastes so much better if you fool the town as one of the most active members. Be creative. Create your own theme if appropriate (point IV) or latch on to another’s, they will appreciate the addition to their fantasy (point V). 3p Survivor May not claim. Upgrade: (easy) Mention house of brown Flavor: Only you can invite people into the house of brown. Many people want to join and try to emulate you May recruit one player into the house of brown. They will count toward your win con. If you die but they make it to endgame you will still win. They will be notified they joined the house of brown but not what that means. Onegu (Unaware MIller) Flavor: You are so lucky you rolled AWESOME Onegu. He is the best scum player on the site. Unfortunately you rolled Vanilla Town. But this game you get to take it out on others. At least at this point everyone should know to listen to you in LYLO. People just don’t understand your genius. VT: Each night may make a player VT for full cycle. The next day cycle and the next night cycle. Upgrade: ( Easy) Claim VT in first or second post Yay! You claimed VT, your most hated role. Misery loves company. You have unlocked...the first person to visit you after the upgrade will become a Vanilla role for the rest of the game. Rsoultin You are the crazy woman Rsoultin. Somehow people keep getting brain cancer from your posts. I guess you are the reason mafia is dying. You make huge posts full of drivel, and even with making these huge posts nobody ever reads them and you still have a 50 page filter. As the queen of emoticons people just get bored of you. Why cant you just be more like Half the Sky... Mason Recruiter: During each day PM the host a player. You will become a mason with them for the rest of the day cycle and the night cycle. Upgrade: (medium) Must use at least 6 emoticons 1 shot cop check on a mason partner. May use during the day. Will get check at end of cycle. Scum qt Obs QT Onegu had something come up. I may be able to answer any questions, or I may not | ||
