1. As a first time player I would expect a townie to post about what they've observed and who acts like they are hiding stuff. I would think they would want to convince other towns they are town but not sound like their trying too hard to defend anything that hasn't been specifically hung on them. But this is prolly more about my style and not what better players would do. I thought I would see people using facts with deductions but I didn't know how much of the facts were going to be hidden from most of the players. Also I didn't realize the cop had to be careful to not get caught sharing info or they'd get NK'd. Really I didn't know what to expect and am just learning as i go. 

 

2. I've tried to think of how them taking out Mills would be helpful since he was next on the suspected to be lynched list but can't come up with a good answer.

 

3. no I have not but it sounds like you have 🤣

 

4. maybe I was being played by a master to unvote them but i just felt moved to rethink my vote lol

 

5. since we have a real life lumberjack AND an ultimate wrestling fan, should we have a lumberjack match to solve this game? Might work with all the original players back, 10 should be enough to make it interesting yes?

This is a really good question...and honestly...I'm a bit stumped so I guess "I don't really know(?)" is the best answer I can come up with.  But that isn't fair, so I will try.  As I try to think through this, I have perhaps, maybe? two observations (but I have never played before...so they probably don't make any sense.).  

1) I wouldn't expect a Townie to make accusations or push for "naming wolves" without supporting analysis because if they were a Townie they would have no idea who the other Townies were and might run the risk of killing one of their own.  So I guess, Townies would accuse less or decide on wolves less??

 

2) I would also expect a Townie to be more reluctant to theorize(?), as again, they are operating with less information.

 

However, these 2 expectation are speculative because I really have no experience or knowledge to base them on. And mostly just reflective of my own personality. (Hopefully, one of the more experienced players can comment on these expectations.). 

But I have been very quiet, (thanks to RL), so I thought I'd try to at least answer the question.  If nothing else, it helps me try to understand how to play this game...which I am still struggling with.  

Expand  

 

1) A townies main two jobs are (and their linked) show their towniness (talking, giving reads, asking questions, pushing for answers etc) and hunting scum. That requires a few things. taking bits of info and putting a picture together or using it to catch inconsistencies, theorizing and rethinking those theories based on what has happened and for some like me pure gut reads that they push and stick by.

 

And sometimes theres a bit of showmanship in order to try and protect a power role, theirs or anothers, to try and actually gET the mafia to kill them. 

 

and then theres META. Its the USUAL way a person plays or sounds and can vary if their scum or town. People aim to come accross the same in either case. People rely on meta a fair bit  and for some its reallyv good. for eg unless theres recruitment int he game Id NEVER waste a cop view on zander because i read him REALLY REALLY well. But then there are others id always view cause i struggle with them or their good enough or have enough influence to get by on even if they are scum

 

Am i making sense?

Ok you see if too with Heavy right?!??!!  It's not just me...it's like one post seems like exp player and other asking the Nirmala new player questions.  In trying to not focus on it but can't seem to let it go....FML lol

 

Honestly, maybe Dice will agree or maybe not but, as new players I don't think focusing too much on the NK is a great idea.  I'm not saying don't at all and ask some questions for sure if you're curious but first few games should be getting the hang of the game, how it works, how it's played, Mafia terms, asking questions,  learning to find both Townies and Wolves.  Each game played you'll learn a little more, understand a little more, feel a little more comfortable playing and interacting.  Just my 2 cents worth anyways.

You're not going back and forth because you know I'm right.  I've never been one to make super duper long windy WoT posts as I hate them. I post thoughts ask questions probe and hunt and reevaluate if I feel its necessary. What Villagers are supposed to do.

Expand  

No. I've made myself clear. Either I'm right and your mafia, in which case you aren't going to change your mind because you need me lynched  now. Killing me tonight instead makes you look awful.

If you really aren't mafia I may have signed my own death warrant,  lol.

OR

I'm wrong your not mafia. Then I need to look long and hard at everyone else. However,  you have said that you NEED my slot resolved. Which means I won't be changing your mind. 

  Reveal hidden contents

Actually,  I don't see a way I survive to tomorrow so I probably won't have to look at anyone. 

I've decided that my verbal jousting with you is harmful to getting people to come in and talk so I'm gonna be quiet.

I really hope everyone does come in and give their thoughts, theories, questions  and suggestions.  

 

I'll check in every so often to answer questions and to place my vote should it be required to secure a lynch.

Update: currently at page 49. Trying my best to catch up. Made a few notes to give fuller thoughts, but haven't finished catching up yet. 

 

I saw a few calls to clarify my comment on Turin, but haven't had time to go dig out the original post, as I am trying to catch up. My memory is that someone was calling 1 wolf on Turin. I said 2 wolves on him because I added my own strike (so 2 strikes against Turin). Is that what you are asking about? 

 

Gotta do some work now. Will circle back probably later tonight.

Honestly not a lot it'll take a few games together for me to develop a feel for ya especially since there's multiple new players, I haven't played with most of the crew here in years nor played myself in almost as long lol.  

 

I get the feel your kind, dislike conflict and will avoid if possible but won't back down if it's necessary or important to you.  You like comfort, order, getting along as opposed to chaos and craziness that Mafia games can devolve too once in awhile.  I think you will be more a gut/meta player then an analytics type.  Just vibes I could b way off tho lol.  You come across as sweet and wholesome tho something tells me there's a bit of a wild/free spirit there just beneath the surface 

Expand  

I'll say this you have a pretty accurate read on my RL personality! I'm impressed on that, especially the last bit about wild/free spirit under the surface.  I think my game personality has already changed so much since starting this game because I'm learning from some of the best Players. I think I have really enjoyed this even the back and forth stuff. It can be stressful if you let yourself think it's real and not just part of a game so I have also learned to keep my feelings out of it. I do believe I am a gut/meta. I tend to feel into situations if I can't use logic. So thank you for humoring me with this response. Also thank you to all the players, I am learning so much from you all. 

Now back to scum/wolf hunting.

OK.  One more time and I'll use small words.

Cairos is going down. Not enough people or time to switch the lynch.

You give Cairos the chance to vote either Mills or Heavy. My theory is Heavy is his (and your) teammate.

Cairos knows he is hung so uses his last action to vote Heavy. Cairos flips mafia.

Mills gets killed in the night. 

Heavy was still your prime target at start of D2. Then you switched to me. You made that post about suspecting Mills after he was dead and it didn't look.like.you had typed previously because you were getting told off for post while Ithi was doing the scene.

Heavy comes out speculating about why Mills was the NK. At some point I speculated that it was to clear Heavy just as your doing now. He claimed to not understand. I laid it out for him again.

Killing Mills makes it look like Cairos (who knows everyone's alignment) chose to vote Heavy (an unknown) over Mills (a townie). Therefore, Heavy MUSTBETOWN, because mafia would never...

I told him when he doubted that a clever wolf would be able to make that argument. It looks like you are that clever wolf. But you should have waited for tomorrow when I will be dead.
