the vt stuff. It just seems so believable. Not to mention, the post seems like it was started a long time ago, which I think is less likely to come from a mafia. I've seen posts from wolves that were written overnight, but never before the game begins. 

 

Are you familiar with Darthe and his gameplay as both alignments???

I can see a world where Darthe is coming off a tough deep wolf game loss and is really energized to be Towning again

 

I kinda feel the same way tho I feel Darthe is capable of replicating this enthusiasm as a Wolf tho I dont think he'd be able to keep it up for long periods of time.

Do you think Scum!BFG or Town!BFG is more likely to ignore it?

More likely wolf BFG imo.  It's either that or a PR who doesn't wanna be outted on page 1, but the PR doesn't make posts about understanding how to read me without actually talking to me.

Steam of consciousness from when we got our role PMs.  I wanted to post then so I just started typing and kept it all :)

Re-asking Darthe:  What is your rational for choosing 4 players instead of 5 on D1?

Yeah crap, sorry.  I meant to say this.  I've carried the idea for a long time and 4 is a clean number because games tend to be 25% scum, and tend to divide into 4s well.  In this one, a 5th is an outlier so I'd prefer to put it on the back to give us a more focused and easier start.

 Blue is very astute. 

 

Are you proud of me for using the word astute?!?!!?!?

More it's a soft defense of BFG.

The part he highlighted can hardly be seen as a defense of BFG imo. The part before that, sure. I'll give you that.

Implicit in "she will be obvious later" is "we can wait for now".  

 

That's a delaying tactic, which is a defense.

What?

 

What is this I see?

 

Do we have a (minor) mindmeld?

Then the question becomes, why are you in such a hurry to go after her? I think you also are aware that her meta makes it easier to read and assess her slightly later on in the game.

For the most part.

 

Where do you normally play?

 

How much mafia experience do you have?

 

You prefer Town or Wolf and why?

 

A/S/L??!!??!

 

lololololololol

 

 

 

I hail from PersonalityCafe.  I've been playing mafia for about 2 years and have ~20 games played.  I've played as town a lot more than wolf so I'd say I'm a lot more comfortable being town than wolf.  I don't know if I necessarily have a preference.  Variety and all that.

 

lol, I can't even remember the last time I was asked A/S/L...it's been...years.

General question, does Darthe always throw out reads this early/easily in a game?  And how seriously should I be taking any of the reads right now?

I'm aware that I've got a good read already.  

 

Why would I not pursue that?

[TrippedOnReality]

Darthe, do you think BFG should have reacted to being called wolf specifically because you called her wolf, or would you have expected her to react to being called wolf by anyone in this game?

Sometimes and low levels of seriousness, usually.  But not this BFG read.

I think had anyone made the post that I did she would've had some response.  To me I'd have expected at least a lolderf or something lighthearted.

Reasonable.

 

My thought here is that you've documented that you were actively thinking about it for 23 hours, and IMO, a 5 person pool would have widened the net a bit on D1 when info is especially scarce, increasing the chances of a catch on D2 with a smaller pool. But I grant that it's an either/or scenario.

I think it's fair to say that he within his Town and Wolf meta by posting what he did. 

 

Which he knows. Which begs the question, why is he so aggressive this early? 

 

He's definitely capable of launching a big plan this early,  but it would risk burning scummates and this does not feel like the game to risk that. Looking at the roster, I don't *think* I see a world where a scum team would agree to him launching a plan like this.

I mean...she kind of did...she told you to fix your vote.  I've only ever seen town!bfg, but the last game we played together she accumulated 3 votes like 3 hours into D1 in a hybrid hammer game with 13 people, and I don't really remember her reacting to it at all.  So I'm not sure how to reconcile that with what I'm seeing here.  Especially if you often throw out not serious reads early game.

That's fair, particularly the bolded.  If you had to pick someone else who you thought *might* agree, who would you pick?

Yes and can and will do this as both alignments.

 

Id pay attention to them for 2 reasons.  Hes capable of making good reads as Town and if he's Scum will then obv still could be very telling.

 

Darthe also does things for Darth #raisins which is not a realm I wish to visit...lololololol
