If you think you can make the distinction in your reads, then make it.

Fuck, man, are you aware of where my effort level is? I know you are.

Tell me what to do. I want this win, but believe me when I tell you that any effort in Mafia right now finds me of separate minds. The mind that doesn't feel like tuning this into something akin to studying for a test has won so far, but goddammit I love the current vibe of trying.

What do you want from me?

juliets and long con are civs, Mac is also a civ, I am a civ.

jay is either a civ or extremely bad but I think probably civ

jack doesn't look good right now. some prodding here would be good

Dom, pennywise, and...inh are absent and should be vig killed as soon as feasible, I think.

The other 5 players off the top of my head I don't have reads on yet. I should probably fix that.

Dragon D. Luffy
Marmot
novaselinenever
Scotty

Dragon D. Luffy - nothing in his posts particularly stands out as glaringly bad. not afraid to give reads early and often
insertnamehere - basically absent for the first half of the game but the posts he's made since returning have been really relevant and insightful at times
JaggedJimmyJay - at times has seemed genuine, right now feels like one of those times.
Kylemii - smells like lemon lime soda
Long Con - i have a role in mind for him, but also this long con looks like a civ. which is weird and notable because i've scumread long con in pretty much every single game we've played in together since my return.
MacDougall - has felt like a genuine mac, he's loud and brash and feels like he's flinging a sword around
Marmot - entire game has been a series of being gone a lot so i guess if he was mafia he'd maybe make more of an effort to be here?
novaselinenever - largely absent, at least recently, but has at times felt genuine, outrage at the lynching of inactives strategy felt genuine
Pennywise - hm...? mafia are less likely to abandon a game after 3 cycles in a new play area because they would hate to miss the opportunity of making 3 new lifelong friends.
wolbre04 - not afraid to have feelings that go against the norm

MacDougall wrote: ↑Mon May 14, 2018 12:28 am DDL has had a consistent position on Marmot that Marmot has been very ignorant towards. I don't really know how to read that?

Day 4 and Day 5 DDL has tried to push for Marmot wagons so I expect when he sees what is going on he is going to be a happy camper? I doubt they are teammates but it's strange that marmot has ignored him so much.

Over 300 posts and he has written Marmot's name twice. Not a good look for Kyle.

If I had to guess right now I would say that the scum team is Marmot, Long Con, Nova and Kyle.

Perhaps Marmot feels no intrinsic urgency to challenge DDL's suspicion given that in his mindset it is known to be false.

Wouldn't DDL push him to engage if DDL was going to the trouble of establishing distance?

I don't think LC is the one, at least not the unlynchable boss. GTH I don't think he's bad.

I could entertain Marmot being the unlynchable one given that he has barely given a fuck all game. Joe Cool indeed.

You suggested Marmot and Pennywise were the players you struggled most with when looking for inspiration to read them as civilians. For one or both of those two, I need you to comb through their posts and also others' posts relative to them to identify who the most likely teammates are.

We can still make this happen if we build an entire team.

Was thinking about this earlier today while I went about my business. Did they plan how the leader would act in relation to the rest of the baddies, or did they just wing it in their own individual styles?

For the first time in at least a few phases, I'm glad I'm not mafia. We're presented with an opportunity to mount the greatest comeback in the history of The Syndicate, and perhaps the history of many other places too.

So we find glory today.

Is that so friendo.

Kylemii wrote: ↑Mon May 14, 2018 12:48 am ok walk over, i've thought about it. i think the pheonix wright boss guy's borderline immortality would incite at least a small increase in that players confidence in making things happen in the thread, it might be invisible if that player is already inactive, i think that sort of role would lend itself to the place of, if not leading the town then maybe gently steering the town, comfy in the fact that, worst case scenario if they get lynched for being too obviously outside of the shadows, their vote will remain around until the end of the game

that doesn't help much, though because honestly i think every player might react to being given such a role differently, and i think if the role fell into the hands of a lower key contributional player, there might not be a difference at all

Tee hee.

Read Tree. It's glorious.

Don't think I know anyone else in this game.

I'd tell you my secrets, but I have none.

Scotty wrote: ↑Thu May 03, 2018 12:48 pm Sounds like pennywise has gotten good at lasting long into games

Dizzy: We have the power to change that. >:)
Seriously though, I was leaning towards voting Penny now. I think he hasn't any other games here going on? He's newer here and I would expect more activety excitement? I have absolutely no impression of him in this game. And nobody has brought him up or brought attention to him before now. With this in mind the meta from Dragon was very helpful. Penny not being all over the thread is according to the meta to be expected. But it still leaves me with no read what so ever. And having someone who has a playstyle who's not very pro town and hard to clear, but effective as scum, doesn't sound great to me. Sue me.

Penny, please give a couple of cents?

If not during the night maybe we can do some tomorrow.

Base on....probability?

You mean my thinking that Penny, INH or Dom is bad? Yes, I'm basing that on probability. I could be dead wrong and all the baddies are active but my experience tells me we have at least one who is inactive.
