I agree, indie hunting should be a big scumtell. I think people are giving Simon a pass because he's kind of new at mafia iirc. But I don't like how this "indie hunting" was his only attempt at contributing to the game until now.Savage wrote:Is indie hunting not a scumtell here?

Just to explain, in case Simon doesn't know, indie hunting over mafia hunting is generally counter-productive because an indie can be as big of a threat to mafia as they are to town. And a mafia player would be interested in hunting the indie above all, so people who hunt for indies can be suspicious. Besides, this particular indie doesn't even seem to have the wincon of killing everyone, and could be an useful asset to town.
This post bothered a little more, though. Are you actually agreeing with Simon's proposition, or just questioning it? If you are agreeing, it reeks of opportunism. Jumping on a bad idea from a new player so you can help him lead town in the wrong direction is pretty bad. Then again, it sounds too obvious of a thing for a mafia player to do.a2thezebra wrote:I agree. Now how do you suppose we go about doing that?Simon wrote:I'm here.

Then in a next post, you are calling Simon scum. And now I'm confused. Do you agree or not agree with him?
Putting this whole exchange aside though, I'm currently having a town read on Zebra, if only because her rant over Golden/Mac's distracting argument seemed like the kind of thing a mafia player would avoid doing. She saw a free chance of pissing people off and turning everyone's attention to her, and took it without a second thought? Way too risky for a mafia player, seriously.
Me too. I'm giving Savage a free pass since he is new here, but he seems kind of disconnected from this game. Then again, he did say some useful points, so maybe it's just how he is choosing to play here. Like, observing, commenting on a few things but not joining most discussions.MovingPictures07 wrote:As someone who has never played with almost every player here, I'm particularly interested in any elaboration you can provide.Savage wrote:As of right now, I feel strongest that zebra is town. This is subject to change depending on how others post, but overall it has to do with how contributive her post are and fingering all people she finds suspect/inquires about. My neutral reads would be people like movingpictures07, MacDougall and MetalMarsh89. These are players that I've noticed post since the start of day 1. Not saying others haven't posted, but I mostly view on mobile(gonna have to change that if I plan to play serious) and so I haven't critically read many post and really only remember post if I notice an avatar I see. Which is why I want to re-read the phase when I have time.
