One of the most important parts of "scumhunting" is having a solid town basing compiling of likely-townies and mechanically cleared townies guiding the direction and POEing potential Mafia. Towns that are scattered, have no focus and no solid foundation will always be taken advantage of.

 

If you do not control the game and the narrative, the Mafia will.

 

Live together or die alone.

You're either the most patient and forgiving townie I've ever met playing mafia or you guys are scummates.

That's what I'm trying to say. Or at least that's how it looks when you keep prompting her to give better explanations.

It looks like you don't need convincing but you want her to sway others. Just how I am seeing it.

 

 

What do you not understand about "I haven't made a serious read of the thread" yet?

 

I have not read the vast majority of Red's posts seriously.

 

I'm not just going to "decide" she is Mafia because she has votes on her - I am going to judge her based on the merits of her posts, narrative, tone and how she's handled her suspects and whether she has handled them with convinction.

You deciding that the only reason someone would try to infer another player's alignment is because w-w is rather simplistic and extremely counter-intuitive and counterproductive.

 

Townies who do not adjust their reads to new information are the worst kinds of townies. I thought Red was a good shot to be Mafia after 20 pages - we now have 53. I will adjust my reads with new information, especially considering my skimming to keep up inferred a great deal of actual gameplay went on in opposition for the first ~20 pages.

 

Why are you so opposed to someone trying to get someone's alignment correct?

Very poetic.

 

Anyway I don't usually like making lists until later in the game myself.

I feel locked into them and my reads often change rapidly from Day 1 to Day 2.

 

iirc I did FOS Dawn and Des earlier for whatever that's worth to you Cory.

FYI most people here will hold that against you.

Not me, I don't mind skimming as long as you seem "in" the game if you know what I mean.

But people like, well Red for example actually tend to policy vote skimmers.

 

Anyway I'm just telling you how it looks to me.

You look like someone working with a teammate trying to clear them more than you do cautious town trying not to mislynch.

Maybe I just need to get used to your style idk.

I've played enough games here to know how you play - trying to find Mafia and not lynching town is more important to me than how I am perceived. Get with the program.

 

I skim during work hours/when I am busy. It is not a preference, it is a compromise.

 

I am going to do what I do regardless of how you perceive it, but I appreciate your hard attempt at tying me to a Red flip.

 

:rolleyes:

Nolfish - you realize Cory and I are one, right?

Are you Legion? 

 

The way I play the rest of this game hinges on your answer.

#LOD

 

Or were you referring to this other game called QONQR? One of the factions is named Legion.

 

I'm pointing this out to Nol for his recent posts. Just wanted to remind him my original casing/vote of Red is the one he got behind.

@ Nol - not policy lynch a skimmer, policy pressure a skimmer.

 

 

 

 1

 

Nol eased his way it not he dog pile as well

 I was already voting you.
But yeah I didn't like your reveal and it's one of the reasons I've kept my vote on you.
 

 

2
 

Tress's character reveal is interesting but is null on alignment.  too much WIFOM surrounding the character imo.  lady Frey wasn't in on the plan

 I don't blame you for being wrong on this because that's the same thing I thought but upon looking up the character apparently she WAS in on the plan. So just so we're clear I'm not holding it against you but you're wrong here.
 

 

3

 

- Nol: for "playing fromt eh sidelines" as someone else said, and his dog pile onto my lynch after my reveal.  also, Nol generally doesn't tunnel on a person, he multi-takses in games iirc.  in this one, he's tunneling on me and putting all effort into getting me lynch and pressuring anyone who is even semi defending me.

1. I voted you before your reveal.
2. Actually I used to be really bad with tunneling, guess you don't remember. I think I've gotten a lot better but I still struggle not to get the tunnel vision. I'll give you that I'm tunneling here but I'm not going to apologize for it since I do think you're mafia. I'm just gonna make a mental note to curb that behavior tomorrow.  

 

 

how is this way of responding then.  just a blue colored number.

 

point 1 - the dog pile doesn't come from the vote Nol, it comes from when you amped up the pressure you were putting on me.  i've stated before pressure > vote.

 

point 2 - really o.0  huh, it didn't seem that way in the series.  but then i've only read the books once and that was before HBO started the series.  if this is the case  http://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Roslin_Frey   i'll be damned, ur right.  that character claim imo is only a few steps below claiming Walder Frey himself, but if Tress is scum why not use the fake claims.  the WIFOM on this claim hurts my head right now.

 

point 3 - the last few games i've played with you about a year ago you had gotten much better at tunneling.  you'd still tunnel on people yes, just like i'd still bulldog.  but you'd learned to multi task and split the tunnel onto different people.  thats why this tunneling pings, because your not splitting your focus. 

 

 

One thing I'm really surprised about in the opposition to Red's lynch is everyone opposite seems to think she's town.
There's 5 teams of mafia that we know of, are the odds really in favor of her being town this game?

Think about it.

 

 

no, that is not whatt he OP says.  the OP says "This game is mafia versus town.  There are five mafia.  They have safe claims.  They win by outnumbering the town.  Town wins by eliminating all mafia.  There is no tomfoolery in this game."

 

it doesn't say 5 mafia teams, it says 5 Mafia.  ie: theres 5 peopel who are aligned with the mafia.  he also says theres no toomfoolery and that this is an advanced game not an experimental.  

 

FoS for this.

 

 

 

 

@Red: What would I hope to gain from thunderdoming with Nol? Uh... one less scummie? I think you get the concept of thunderdoming... but yeah it's just kinda going mano y mano to duke it out and see who comes out on top. What makes you think I'm trying to distance with Nolder and not any of my other scum reads?

 

@Everyone voting Red: Seriously? You're content parking your vote on the single train town has achieved today? Are every one of you that confident that she'll flip scum? Confident enough to risk essentially wasting D1 going after one target? Red already claimed. If she's scum, she's not making it to endgame. The first time a PR claims and is NK'ed that night, she'd pretty much be up on the chopping block. What part of "vettable claim" do yall not get?

Your forgetting alot though. 

1) She wasnt the only train. Mish/Tress was also pushed heavily and still is by some.

2) You cant guarantee she wont make it to end game. Its best to deal with it here and now. Its also entirely possible that shes lieing about her role and as long as the doc protects claimed PR's then shes vetted by your reasoning, even if she herself doesnt do a thing.

3) On the off chance she does flip town then she is the most informative lynch for the day at the cost of a relatively weak PR. The fact that its so weak is why its so easy to fake claim I might add.

 

But yeah honestly you might even not be able to see the sense behind some of Red's reads, cause well, a lot of times her reads WON'T make much sense when she's town lol. In fact, I don't have an easy way you can read her. My townread on her has more to do with the circumstances around her, how her train built and stuff. She got to the point of hammering fairly quick.

So you dont have a town read on posts, you just have bad reads on everyone elses votes on her? She got to the point of hammering at a decent pace yeah, yet she hasnt been hammered. Why not? Scum would easily be able to make some BS reason to vote her. Dont say that all the scum are on her train already btw, because no one in this game is stupid enough to put the entire team together on a single train on D1, they arnt. This is an experienced crew.

 

If thats all you have to defend Red with, then were done here. Liking you less and less Des.

 

 

 

 

^ its posts like this that make me lean town on Lenlo.  i have the same thoughts about people jumping ship from my lynch.  a few are likely town having 2nd thoughts, but at least one is going to be scum playing devils advocate.

 

Red I could explain to you why decided not to talk to me is -EV for town if you are town, but I don't think you really care

Sigh

 

Moving on.

 

 

wtf is -EV town and i did replay to you dude post #1096

 

i just dont type as fast as the rest of you lot.

Dunno what LOD or QONQR is. The Legion quote/joke is something ive seen in alot of literature.

 

"My name is Legion for we are many" is the original quote I remember it coming from. This is from the Bible btw for those wondering.+

Wow - totally different directions there.

 

#LOD - Legion of Doom. You know, the counter #Alliance group you jokingly made in the sign ups? Lol :wink:

Ah. Well, sorry. It still takes some getting used to being in a Legion. Im a lone wolf afterall.

 

Im also a literature nerd, so bleh.

Up to 21

 

 

 

 

:rolleyes:

 

I'll spell it out for you Mynd.

 

I haven't checked the game all day. Decided to catch up before going to bed. Saw it had twelve pages, wasn't exactly looking forward to going through that while tired. Jumped to the last page to check the mood of thread. Was happy it was still jokes, no need for serious brain activity before bedtime. Decided to post picture I just saw in my tmblr feed. Capiche?

 

 

And it's just Mish, or Mistress if you prefer :tongue:

 

so let me get this striaght.

 

you didn't do the blue, instead only doign the green and assumed the red because of one page

 

48919648.jpg

 

Another strangely interesting post here from Red. Adds to the pressure on Mish, goes as far as to make a meme calling her mafia, but still has her vote on Tommy for some weird reason.

 

That's a decent point, I can follow this.

 

##Vote Red

 

 

Nolder using AJ (my other half) reasoning to vote for Red. He's currently FOSing me and AJ while maintaining Red as a suspect, so let's see how that pans out.

 

 

##Vote Red

You're now #2 on the list.

 

 

Nolder, as of page 22 I have a single note on you until you vote Red here.

Something about you not liking joke votes.

You haven't contributed much at all @ the Red case but come out in hard support here.

You immediately FOS @ Dawn for her vote knowing there is some pressure already building on Dawn.

 

What was so scummy about this vote by Dawn? What makes it different from the other piling votes on Red at this point?

 

the Red/Mish wagons were the first "real" event of Day 1.

 

 

 

 

 

##Vote Red

You're now #2 on the list.

 

...list of what?

 

You don't wanna find out.

 

 

XD

 

holding this aside for later.

 

 

ops that was suppose to be under this.

 

##Yates

why you parking your vote here. 

 

##Vote Red

 

we've kinda moved past the joke phase so using that is odd. But you're new enough that i kinda buy it coming from you. Red seems to be gaining some pressure about her comment. Since your vote is there already, what do you think of it? 

 

would also like to hold this for the future.

 

I can't really tell if she seems scummy or not, actually. 

 

But somebody else did vote her before me, so I guess she is? Maybe? I'm not sure yet.

 

Okay.

You responded - you are not communicating. There is a difference.

 

Here are my notes of you up to 22

 

Red
joke vote - nolder
joke vote - lenlo
votes wombat
joke vote - amega
votes Tommy for "GOAT" - possible chainsaw @ mish?
supports Mynd
FOS @ Tom
hard FOS @ Mish
possible FOS @ Yates
holds to vote @ Tommy
FOS @ Dawn
Womby villa
FOS @ Lenlo
FOS @ Zanube
FOS @ Tommy
 
---
 
You should be able to understand why at that point in the game, people were suspect of you. You had one villa lean and basically FOS'd the entire game otherwise.

You two already have a room, so use it.

I have been made aware that the intro is somewhat ambiguous as to whether this game has six factions, five of which are mafia and one which is town, or if it has two factions, one of which is a mafia with five members.

 

This game has a single five member mafia team.
