Re: basic mafia [DAY 2]
I have much more experience with a town nanook than wolf, and a lot of his behaviour could be just attributed to play style.

On the side note, I don't think Falc/NAA are w/w but that's the impression I get as a half-asleep and busy person
I could see Falcon or NAA being wolf, but I’m not sure I see the case on nanook.
Limited meta read, but from what I've seen he's more "Friendly unhelpful" when scum, and he reads more that way here with his "sheep" shtick.
That being said, Axe reckons he apparently does that all the time with the two of them, which might make it more NAI than I thought.
Not impossible still that NAA is teammate and vouching. I think I would rather NAA go first who I think personally more suspicious of the two, and if NAA flips wolf I would definitely reconsider nanook as potential teammie

Re: basic mafia [DAY 2]
@Alison I was going to ask you why you scum read me. Is this it? Then fuck that. I explained what I found scummy in your ISO and what worries I had, and they were pretty specific to you as a player. I have at least some experience playing with you now. You yourself said I was probably someone who could decently read you. You explained your thought process to me, I listened, but it didn't really sway my suspicion. Your reaction to my read then is "U scum". I don't really buy that this is your town reaction. In my convo with you I haven't felt that you've wanted to solve my alignment at all, and I think you definitely would as town.
If you have an honest read on me, I promise I will entertain you. Would prefer you just lay it out to me directly, cause I have about 0 motivation to read this thread right now.

Re: basic mafia [DAY 2]
If I'm chopped here, please please listen to my Alison read. She can definitely go aggressively after players like this as scum. Also, she's frankly better than to just go "This person is scum" and then whoops. Seriously, hold her to it. If I'm wrong, I'm wrong, shit happens, but this is not at all how I expect Alison to react as town. From what I'm reading here, she's basically omgusing without evaluation. From that, and from what I already said D1, my bet is that Alison is scum here.
Honestly have no idea about the other two. This is the second game in a row I've been run down with vote without getting why, and it's frustrating as fuck. I realise I haven't been invested that much, and I keep forgetting I'm even in this game. My heart's not in it, and that's not anyone else's fault. So if I get lazy votes back, fair, but still frustrating.
Alison scum.
Belzy town.
Basically my reads.

Agreed, it's more of a falcon level town play, and from what I read Alison is at minimum a dice throwing ape like myself.Dyslexicon wrote: ↑Sat Jul 10, 2021 9:49 am but this is not at all how I expect Alison to react as town

Re: basic mafia [DAY 2]
What you're describing is exactly what I gave. There's no tiers, it's just five people, and I said "I have reasons to townread X and Y and have gone over my reasons to townread everyone else"NotAnAxehole wrote: ↑Sat Jul 10, 2021 8:51 amProcess of Elimination should be a list of people that you're almost positive all of the scum are in, not because they're scummy, but because everyone else is town. Also, process of elimination by definition doesn't require tiers or associative reads.
But yeah, I don't see the point in arguing that.
There's nothing that says a fake can't surpass the real thing.

Re: basic mafia [DAY 2]
Dizzy I scumread you before you scumread me so calling my read on you an OMGUS is disingenuous. I've already explained why I scumread you twice.

Re: basic mafia [DAY 2]
You mentioned a scum read on me before I had even started to play the game. I had two post. Come the fuck on. You calling that an actual read, and you trying to then call my read on you after i ISO you an OMGUS last day, that is what is disingenuous.
If you have more, quote it. I'm genuinely interested to hear your perspective.
So far what I have read is "Dizzy scum cause bad push". That is the definition of OMGUS. Do you disagree?
Also, what was bad about my push? Obviously, you're going to disagree with it, but what was "bad" about it?

Re: basic mafia [DAY 2]
Yeah it was an actual read. I had you on my top 3 POE. I also mentioned multiple reasons to scumread you beyond your push on me:
- Your "I'm going to sheep someone" stuff
- Esooa dying after saying she'd turbo you
It's bad because there isn't any substance to it. You don't have a single good reason to scumread me beyond "she exed a townie omg", and you've expressed sentiments that are just plain wrong, like asserting I have no interest in determining your alignment when we've spent many posts arguing with each other and claiming that me not realizing Axe was joking being equivalent to when I tried to shade Gavial in Bluey, which are completely different scenarios (esp. since I walked it back in 10 seconds).

Yeah I can no longer be confident like that but I don't know where to be begin with the zero or extremely limited meta I have on both of you.
From reading your posts today I still think you're good and still need to catch up more but Dizzy really doesn't seem wolfy either.

- Why is this scummy for me? I literally do this every other town game if not more often. You should know this.

- Derp clear denied and everything, but I hadn't actually checked the NK yet. So I'm guessing your argument is that Esooa wanted me dead for some fucking reason D1, so I killed her. That is super faulty. First of all, I don't know Esooa and she doesn't know me. I have no idea what her problem with me was. Second, killing someone who wanted me dead is pointing directly at me. I'm probably the only one who have an actual reason to NOT kill Esooa. (Though NK analysis is bad in most circumstances anyway.) I can't NK, so I didn't do it.
I have never said this. I haven't mentioned your read on DOO at all today.
I feel like you don't have an interest in figuring out my alignment because you've been saying I'm scum from the get go. Apparently it was because I said I would sheep someone. Which I do pretty much all the time. Wow much scummy.
I have never said this either. I haven't brought up Bluey at all. What the fuck.
Edit: It was Bluey, so you're right about that. But it was not about Gavial, and I didn't mention his name.
What I did say was this:
- Throughout your ISO there were two points especially that I felt you pretended to have more paranoia than you actual do have. This is something I've noticed in your scum play before. The points were:
1) Asking if Lucky liked playing as scum to potentially "catch him in a lie", when he had already said he did like to play as scum. And I found that weird, and I doubt you expected to actually catch him in a lie (cause scum don't really come up with totally unnecessary lies that can easily be refuted).
2) You thinking Axe tried to bluntly lie about not being able to read your posts, and thus was outed, which I think is just absurd. (This you did walk back in 10 seconds btw).
I also remember getting off vibes from a sentence you had towards DOO which went something like "I think you're doing this because you're mafia"
The issue is this: It give the reader the impression that "Oh, I had the sudden realisation this could be a lie, so I must not be mafia."
You feigned ignorance in a similar way towards your partner, Invictius, in the last scum game I saw you in, Bluey. Actually, I concede that it's not the same situation, but that's also not my point. It gave me the same feeling when I read your ISO, you trying to highlight that you didn't know something, which is why I'm suspicious.
Maybe I'm explaining it badly, and if I am I'd rather others ask me about it. Open invitation.

Actually, does my read on Alison seem "bad" to everyone? What is "uninspiring" about it, or my play in general (a word I've seen been used, which in turn makes me very uninspired about this game. Not saying you can't use it, just saying how I feel.)
I didn't even have that strong of a read on D1, I just got bad vibes. Alison doubling down because my read is "bad" and saying I've said stuff which I absolutely haven't makes her just look worse to me.
Ideally, I'll give a fuck enough to actually read the game and get a solve that is not all about Alison. Probably maybe will.

Her whole argument is that I killed Esooa because Esooa wanted me dead. If anyone is set up, it's me.
Also, imo, it doesn't even matter. We don't actually know why scum killed Esooa.

I didn't even have that strong of a read on D1, I just got bad vibes. Alison doubling down because my read is "bad" and saying I've said stuff which I absolutely haven't makes her just look worse to me.
Ideally, I'll give a fuck enough to actually read the game and get a solve that is not all about Alison. Probably maybe will.

Alison asks this after uttering strong suspicion on Lucky. But Lucky literally said in his first post that he wanted to play as scum, so the question about if he likes it or not reads disingenuous. (And I'm pretty sure Alison later reference that post)
I don't feel like this is a real thought.
Honestly, I agree with this, surface level maybe, but the post in reference does feel real bad.

These are some things I find scummy in Alison's ISO.
It's not impossible for her to be town, but right now well above > mafia for me.
Thoughts?
I'll add that I found her solve of me being teamed with Omega at EoD1 not believable as well. As if I would hard defend my already highly voted and suspected partner for a short term chop on Alison. I think she knows better than that.Dyslexicon wrote: ↑Sat Jul 10, 2021 11:01 am- Why is this scummy for me? I literally do this every other town game if not more often. You should know this.

I also mentioned multiple reasons to scumread you beyond your push on me:
- Your "I'm going to sheep someone" stuff
- Esooa dying after saying she'd turbo you
It's bad because there isn't any substance to it. You don't have a single good reason to scumread me beyond "she exed a townie omg", and you've expressed sentiments that are just plain wrong, like asserting I have no interest in determining your alignment when we've spent many posts arguing with each other and claiming that me not realizing Axe was joking being equivalent to when I tried to shade Gavial in Bluey, which are completely different scenarios (esp. since I walked it back in 10 seconds).
- Derp clear denied and everything, but I hadn't actually checked the NK yet. So I'm guessing your argument is that Esooa wanted me dead for some fucking reason D1, so I killed her. That is super faulty. First of all, I don't know Esooa and she doesn't know me. I have no idea what her problem with me was. Second, killing someone who wanted me dead is pointing directly at me. I'm probably the only one who have an actual reason to NOT kill Esooa. (Though NK analysis is bad in most circumstances anyway.) I can't NK, so I didn't do it.
I have never said this. I haven't mentioned your read on DOO at all today.
I feel like you don't have an interest in figuring out my alignment because you've been saying I'm scum from the get go. Apparently it was because I said I would sheep someone. Which I do pretty much all the time. Wow much scummy.
I have never said this either. I haven't brought up Bluey at all. What the fuck.
Edit: It was Bluey, so you're right about that. But it was not about Gavial, and I didn't mention his name.
What I did say was this:
- Throughout your ISO there were two points especially that I felt you pretended to have more paranoia than you actual do have. This is something I've noticed in your scum play before. The points were:
1) Asking if Lucky liked playing as scum to potentially "catch him in a lie", when he had already said he did like to play as scum. And I found that weird, and I doubt you expected to actually catch him in a lie (cause scum don't really come up with totally unnecessary lies that can easily be refuted).
2) You thinking Axe tried to bluntly lie about not being able to read your posts, and thus was outed, which I think is just absurd. (This you did walk back in 10 seconds btw).
I also remember getting off vibes from a sentence you had towards DOO which went something like "I think you're doing this because you're mafia"
The issue is this: It give the reader the impression that "Oh, I had the sudden realisation this could be a lie, so I must not be mafia."
You feigned ignorance in a similar way towards your partner, Invictius, in the last scum game I saw you in, Bluey. Actually, I concede that it's not the same situation, but that's also not my point. It gave me the same feeling when I read your ISO, you trying to highlight that you didn't know something, which is why I'm suspicious.
Maybe I'm explaining it badly, and if I am I'd rather others ask me about it. Open invitation.
And I'll add that I should probably think/talk about someone else than Alison too.

Re: basic mafia [DAY 1]
Okay I disagree with idea of the esooa's kill to mislynch Alison. Doubt mafia would kill someone based off one read to run a trick play.

It's not that her death implicates Alison but that her death clears the way for a wagon.
We can only trust the truth. Everything else is a lie.

Re: basic mafia [DAY 2]
Whether Alison is scum or not, I should be doing more. I do think Alison is likely to be mafia, but I feel I've made that clear. In any case, I'm missing most of the game as context, and putting all my eggs in one basket isn't smart in any case, especially since there's three baskets and a lot of eggs.
I'll commit to reading the game either this night or tomorrow. Putting this out there so I have to do it lol

Re: basic mafia [DAY 2]
The night kill discussion is pointless. Assuming Alison is mafia, she has 2 choices, kill someone who town reads her, or kill someone who she needs for the day miss. That's just due to the amount of players town reading her D1.
So we conclude she had to kill someone who town reads her, but then who? Someone who's more or less neutral or someone who made a very hard stand at EoD but otherwise was entirely non-impactful / has no good associative to go off.
I don't think Esooa is a bad kill for anyone in the game tbh... So it's just a plain, low information night kill.
