Lenlo just for your "what mafia words mean" note section that you will never read

 

"wagonomics" is the process of late-game solving in which a player goes back to vote wagons from earlier day phases to see who was voting already flipped villagers / wolves, a process I hate because wolves vote wolves pretty often and villager vote villagers and it's not reliable and doesn't teach anything

Having competitive wagons during a day phase? There's a novel idea, imo

Talk to me about Tab? What are you seeing? I feel like I should have a better read on her. But I don't. Maybe I just want her to be Town?

 

I want to come back to this.  I just looked over her, and I don't know why you should have a better read on her.  As far as I can tell, she hasn't really contributed anything.  She seems pretty neutral on a lot of things, and she seems to address other people's reads more than giving her own.  

 

I saw her having Dice and Thane as her top two scum candidates.  I think both have pretty good chances to be town, so that's a little concerning...but I don't even know where those reads came from.  That's a lot more concerning for me.

My concern is the latter, Shad.

Have you actually seen that happen before? Does it imply anyone as a likely partner of Nomi flips wolf?

 

 

Have I ever seen what happen?  People have reads that seemingly are based on information they shouldn't have, and it indicates them being mafia?  Yes - several times.

 

I would have to really dig into it to see if I feel it's more/less likely to come from anyone in particular, but to be honest, I'll focus more on his pushes and how people treated him.  Considerably less pure guess work than figuring out where the info's coming from.

 

We're talking about a scum player new to a site asking his team mates for and receiving a basic rundown on each town player's skill/style, right?

AFAICT Tab is thinking for herself; that's not always something that makes a lot of sense to you - see her as Loki in Ragnarok where she was 3P who incidentally continually hard defended wolves throughout the game thinking they were villagers.

 

She's playing similarly to that game, which I would guess implies villager more than wolf to a decent degree, but admittedly I have no idea what her wolf game looks like

Who do you reccomend

I won't deny that my suspects at the moment are in the low posters, but using that as a factor for lynching someone is really annoying, especially because I tend to be at the receiving end of it. 

 

 

 

i learned in School that this is often a hotspot for wolves to lurk Sooh....

What does that have to do with anyone's reads? Why are AGGRAVATED?

Hello. Have we met? Have you ever seen anyone push me for posting too little? I guess I'm just too scarred from being at a receiving end of suspicion based on post count one time too many.

I have a joke

 

Two wolves walk into a bar

 

One goes to the bartender

"Can I get the I'm really busy this week sorry guys"

 

The bartender goes "Sure thing" and slides him a drink

 

The second goes,

"Hey, can you get me a Nonsensical argument and then bolt the thread?"

The bartender goes "Of course" and slides in a drink

 

Suddenly a bunch of villagers rampage into the bar with torches

 

"Bartender! We are trying to lynch some wolves!"
 

The bartender points at his patrons.

 

"Oh okay. I have some wolves sitting right here"

The villagers looked confused.

 

"Wait, where? Behind the idiot and that really busy guy?"

I don't feel she's playing overly similarly to her game in Harry Potter, though.  She wasn't an overly high effort player, but she gave some thoughts and gave enough of an explanation that I probably could have followed her that game.  She wasn't necessarily always right - few rarely are - but she made the effort.

 

This game, it's more like...questions and comments, but I don't feel it ever builds to anything.

I would venture to assume that MOST people new to a site ask for some insight when from their scummates.  I've done it on every site I've ever played.

Also Lenlo/Rack interplay has been weird all game.

 

 

you thinking w/w???

 

It's something I'll have to consider, but I haven't finished my chat with Rack yet. And Lenlo strikes me as someone I might find scummy regardless of his alignment.

Ah, fair enough. I for one regard unfamiliarity as a blessing as scum. Maybe it's just a matter of what type of liar you are.

So when reading up on Zander again I realized that I completely misremembered everything about the Lenlo vote situation and him. For whatever reason I thought his vote came way later than it did but oh well. So it kinda ruins my whole thought process. I still have a bad gut read on Zander but now that's really it so I think I'll UnlynchWhat a bad start to mafia on this forum

I'm here but I'm not here. I just didn't want to wake up to 10 pages of unread posts...

This theory feels angle shooty and probably incorrect anyway. Like - in those games where you were wolf and asked for info on the villagers, did you ever over share meta knowledge in those games or instead pretend like you didn't have that info? If I'm a wolf? And I'm in a game with a bunch of people I don't know? And my team is like "monstr does this and cloud does that and we can always get Allette riled up!" I think I pretend I don't know anything and use that to my advantage.

 

Plus - I think Nomi is lying and has either played with the people you highlighted in red or at least spectated games. I have zero proof but that's just going to be my assumption regardless of truth value.
