Re: Double Elimination Mafia D1
Yes. Because her MO is based on killing ONE and reevaluation based on the flip, so it functionally is not possible in this setup and Alison would know that. Her failing to adapt is NOT Alison like in the least.Kylemii wrote: ↑Sat Apr 24, 2021 2:05 pmdo you think the format of the game would alter her death tunnel MO?Timsup2nothin wrote: ↑Sat Apr 24, 2021 2:03 pmIn this case I disagree. Alison confidently spewing reads that appear to have no basis is a townish indication, although she can fake it. Alison spewing nonsense regarding optimal strategy and being plainly wrong is driven by her alignment being the opposite of the alignment she is presenting the strategy for.Kylemii wrote: ↑Sat Apr 24, 2021 1:52 pmAlison confidently saying a bunch of nonsense like this means she's probably just townAlison wrote: ↑Sat Apr 24, 2021 1:39 pmFour players will be eliminated from loser's. If you are in loser's, even if you are one of the four, you have a say as to who the other three are.DaisyCloud wrote: ↑Sat Apr 24, 2021 1:35 pm last I checked intentions in this case is indeed important. it is in the second bracket that town will be able to eliminate mafia. if Majority of the players in the second bracket believes me to be scum then I will be eliminated thus unable to eliminate any mafia. not sure what about that is confusing to u. it doesn't hender me from finding and trying to yeet the mafia but it clearly doesn't help either. and I clearly said that I'm fine going so im not being anti-town.
Your focus on surviving rather than maximizing your agency to control the exe while claiming on paper that you want to dunk all three mafia suggests you are mafia yourself.
Her town strat she is claiming to support is "dive into the loser's bracket and eliminate all the wolves immediately." That seems like a strat that fits the persona Alison presents, in which she has fast decisive reads that she is absolutely confident on and given four chops she can just end it. But that's just a persona. The real town Alison grabs ONE death tunnel, chosen mostly at random, and sacrifices them to see what happens. All the ridiculous sure thing associatives she builds around the sacrifice are just testing and probing. Here she is acting like she wants to bet the game on them instead.

Yeah that's a problem. Let's say just for grins that we manage to shove all three wolves into the losers bracket and one of them is a powerhouse wolf that can drive the discussion there. Throw in a "I'm just following the powerhouse wolf" townie and the wolves get to kill four town of their choice N1. If you wanna go in there and get down and dirty in a wolf hunt, great. If you are town going in there predisposed to do Alison's bidding, or Mac's, or mine, it would be better for all concerned if you just don't.

hmm, idk. that isn't mech clear. and I don't think it's semantics either i.e. different look at definition. and I think it's too early in game with that minor thing to clear someone. I will note it though. I am a bit back and forth with my read on you, that much is true. I don't think it should make me scum though. just makes me a town still figuring things out.

Sorry, I vaguely remember youDaisyCloud wrote: ↑Sat Apr 24, 2021 3:00 pmwut? we played games together you should know me. do u not remember me at all? iirc I only ever randed town in the games we played together. I feel like something similar happened in the last game we played together too, u not remembering me. it's fine i guess.hollowkatt wrote: ↑Sat Apr 24, 2021 2:56 pm For anyone who knows Daisy better than I do, does she make word salad type posts all the time regardless of alignment?
I don't recall being this wordy if that is what u mean about word salad. but iirc I am usually playing catch up as I typically miss day 1 and stuff for various reasons.

Yeah, word salad = wordy. I dunno. Your last post gives me bad feels because it's very wordy, is quite hedgy in how you've phrased things and your conclusion, and just doesn't sit right with me.

Re: Double Elimination Mafia D1
That’s it I’ve decided.
I want Daisy in Bracket 1.
I want them to interact there and talk with HK.

Re: Double Elimination Mafia D1
People we need to adapt to the setup here.
There are only three wolves. You get EIGHT votes. If you haven't clued into the fact that people are going to be voting for townies, clue in. We can't just "throw the wolves in the loser's bracket and make them fight among themselves," because we are, by definition, throwing in at least five townies. We have to assign eight people to the bracket with an eye towards whether those eight people will be able to identify and prosecute the wolves among them, not just say "okay, anyone I kinda vaguely wolf read can just get thrown in there and I wash my hands.
Please, everyone quit OMGUS thinking when you get voted for. Townies are getting voted for. Get over it. If we have the perfect town sweep outcome and chop all three wolves in the first cut we will still also chop a townie. If that townie is me and we win on the first cut I promise you I am not gonna cry about getting chopped there.
In my opinion we want at least a couple wolves, and we want townies who can take the heat of an "okay half of us are gonna die here" situation with a clear head and make good decisions under that stress. Are you a townie, and are you that townie? If so, you should expect votes.

Your focus on surviving rather than maximizing your agency to control the exe while claiming on paper that you want to dunk all three mafia suggests you are mafia yourself.
Her town strat she is claiming to support is "dive into the loser's bracket and eliminate all the wolves immediately." That seems like a strat that fits the persona Alison presents, in which she has fast decisive reads that she is absolutely confident on and given four chops she can just end it. But that's just a persona. The real town Alison grabs ONE death tunnel, chosen mostly at random, and sacrifices them to see what happens. All the ridiculous sure thing associatives she builds around the sacrifice are just testing and probing. Here she is acting like she wants to bet the game on them instead.
Timsup2nothin wrote: ↑Sat Apr 24, 2021 2:49 pmYeah that's a problem. Let's say just for grins that we manage to shove all three wolves into the losers bracket and one of them is a powerhouse wolf that can drive the discussion there. Throw in a "I'm just following the powerhouse wolf" townie and the wolves get to kill four town of their choice N1. If you wanna go in there and get down and dirty in a wolf hunt, great. If you are town going in there predisposed to do Alison's bidding, or Mac's, or mine, it would be better for all concerned if you just don't.

basically all this that Tim is saying.
I have never seen tim's scum game iirc. I feel like many times he gets eliminated incorrectly for the most messed up of reasons. this is why I think that Tim shouldn't go into the second bracket day 2. we need him to find scum and send them to bracket 2. I highly doubt we will vote all 3 mafia into bracket 2 on day 1.
we need him here to say stuff like this. I feel like many here are missing the key points and strategies to this type of mafia game.
omgus is bad/wrong for numerous reasons more so in this game.
if you haven't read tim's post i suggest you do so now. and if you have i suggest you reread it all again if you are still voting people with the wrong mindset.
I'm going to say it if you can't tell already but I think Tim is quite possibly town in this game.

Re: Double Elimination Mafia D1
Slight correction to my earlier assessment- the split between those whom I have experience with and those whom I do not is 8-8, not 7-9. Our host had Mongoose in the mention tag instead of Marmot and that’s what I used to build my lists:
Have Experience With:
G-Man
Kyle
LC
Mac
Made
Marmot
Tony
Wilgy
Stranger Danger:
Alison
Daisy
Falcon
Gavial
Hollowkat
Moghedien
Poison
Tim
I’m going four and four now instead of five and three. I’d volunteer for the LB, but I don’t want to be in there if both Mac and Alison are as well. I’d rather separate them for a phase, as they both seem pretty talkative and I don’t want my eyes to glaze over trying to keep up with them when a critical decision is at stake.

Re: Double Elimination Mafia D1
are you talking to me? you don't state a name to who u r referring to.
I have seen both his scum game and town game. I think I'm fairly good at reading him, except I lose confidence or I develop doubts.
do I want MacDougall in bracket 2 when I'm not sure what his alignment could be? idk tbph. he is a confident and vocal player either alignment and is good at being a leader regardless too.
idc if me and him end up in the same bracket together either. I won't be salty if he randed mafia and ends up yeeting me. idk why I say this. I just like playing games with him regardless.
I'm rambling because idk really whst u r asking nor if you r even talking to me.
I think, like tim he will serve well in either bracket. also, like Tim we shouldn't just put him in bracket 2 in Day 1 either though. but I do think if both are town they will be good at eliminating mafia. I just think there is too many highly vocal people that is too confident that we will put all 3 mafia so early into bracket 2. . and andsome of these people know or should know players like Tim and MacDougall are easily mistaken about their alignment.
