Now that enough time has passed and everyone has posted. I can start to claim some wild things.

I am basically spewed town at this point. I am IC and town should just do whatever I say.

I want neon/sig/porscha wagons. Pick 2 and get them going.

Now when neon catches up I can recind if she towns up and say was feeling her out with a fake push. And my distance from mac and porscha increases

Porscha/Abigail/Pyxxy or something could be the solve maybe.
I think as an entire poe it didnt seem to have a lot of thought behind it... scotty at that time had hardly posted, youve pushed him (fair argument), already was on pyxxy. And then just threw abbi in there. Idk, maybe youre right and its easy like that, but if scotty is their loudest wolf and he immediately fucked it up, idk how abbi/pyxxy plan on pulling the game out of their asses and it doesnt seem like they care!

MacDougall wrote: Sat Dec 23, 2023 10:35 pm Let's say the relatively consensus poe here is something like pyxxy/abigail/scotty. I personally don't have Scotty as mafia but let's say we arrive at a position where he's the third most sussed slot for arguments sake (which he might be).

If we as a town are content to say it's unlikely that there are 0 mafia in this group, which I am due to how many townreads I have outside of it.

We limit the amount of dialogue speculating outside of it and focus our energy on figuring out who to chop from within it, we serve a few purposes.

1. The town miselim is given enough opportunity to project themselves to avoid a shrug chop.
2. The Mafia are forced to pick a side in a way that can result in them bussing, or outing themselves choosing not to bus.
3. The town outside of it reveal themselves via solid teamwork and progressing the game state along a town agenda.
4. The Mafia get boxed out.
5. It prevents a lot of town on town posturing/ego warfare.

I try to force this paradigm in every town game I play and it's why my town winrate over the past couple of years is not just high but so so many of the wins are rapid.

In the games in which I am proven to have 0 wolves in the POE I end up operating within, mafia usually make the mistake of keeping me alive and I'm capable of being able to reevaluate eventually once it's discovered that the d1 poe was pure.

The caveat is the town wintate and the "rapidness" directly correlates with how hard the town try as a group and how committed they are to simply being townie. The more bad townplay. Low efforting. Tinfoiling. Open wolfing as town, that town exhibit, the longer the wolves survive and closer to parity they end up.

So it's important for poe clamped town to keep their neck above the water and keep trying to be town. It's also important that the day 1 poe gets resolved quickly so town PR play is very important ie. vigs need to shoot d1 cws and investigatives need to get green checks on possible miselims etc.

When towns come together in this manner town generally just absolutely steamrolls almost any mafia team except pure "we lost the game at rand" level mafia teams.
I've been thinking about this post, and





I find this approach abhorrent, and yes





You do have a very impressive win record, as either faction






I believe we are all human beings, and I can find liars




To sum it up:





Whole Lotta Words for "Do As I Say"

Anyway, the sig lynch was not a good idea, as you usually don't want to go after someone who can't respond D1, you want to be able to pressure people and push the person with the largest wagon to claim. I tried my best, but there was little that I could do with the post restriction.

@falcon45ca how in gods green Earth is a post describing the merits of common POE play "abhorrent" and worthy of being voted? That's astonishing to me.
