I was implying I felt like this post achieved nothing in a way that was scum-indicative
I've since gone off this line of thought, mostly because of gobble's later posts giving me a better sense of where his head was at

(this doubles as a response to both gobbles and Fark)

@Fark: you cite 66 as a post serving your point but it's me giving my interpretation of how gobbles played page 1, AKA trying to find where scum is
I think on the whole there's validity to your interpretation here of me not playing quite the same as I did in, say, the Mini Normal we were in
But similarly to the Korina cult game, it's important to keep in mind that this odd setup changes things significantly. You seem to be looking for people to play this like it's a normal Mafia game when that's not how town should be playing this setup (or at least that's the conclusion I've come to). I can't figure out why you're approaching this game normally when you caught on pretty quickly in the Cult game that optimal play was far from normal town play.|s 89

Your (claimed) reasons for suspecting me line up more with a regular-Mafia lens than a corrected one and it has me concerned that you're unable to view this game from a town lens because you're not town.

That's more of a pet theory of what you'd be doing as scum here than something with much weight behind it though

Yeah Morgana at the very least has to play massively differently than the other two scums (and if not then the imbalance would be corrected by the other two scums as opposed to Morgana)

In post 253, Wonderwell wrote:Ok, here's the thing.

What scum is currently failing to realize is that even VTs are delivering a significant amount of information today, because compared to a common mafia game where the amount of uninformed people in d1 is roughly ~80% of the playerlist (10 out of 13 in a mini; 2 out of 9 in a newbie/micro), here the truly uninformed players are only 40% aka 3 out of 8. Merlin knows exactly who is scum, scum knows who is town as usual, Percival has a 50% chance to sheep town or scum with his information. Only the VTs are left completely in the dark, meaning that only 3 people are truly, completely clueless about what they should do. You wouldn't be able to hide among the ignorants, because there are too few ignorants.

Now, there have been several people claiming to be ignorant (chemist ; shiro ; FA ), or displaying to be ignorant (klick has switched his vote 4 times by now). There is zero chance that all those people are town, so we just have to discern which people are genuinely clueless from those who are faking it to promote a scum agenda. I feel like there are at least 2 scum in that group, the chance of all 3 being there isn't so far off given how things have been playing out so far.

I approve of our most recent vote on Chemist, i think he's morgana.

-Farkran.
Getting pretty strong signaling vibes from this one

PEdit: Shiro is at L-1 and I am very tempted

Which is why I’m voting you right now, right?

You still peddled that logic

GG.
Merlin only voted scum and drew a lot of attention to themselves and that just ends in a scum win in this setup. I think after the Shiro D1 lynch we were set up to have a pretty good shot, but once the Persival claim happened we had zero chance.

Kerset was the real Merlin all along tho

As Merlin in this setup it's completely vital to not be found out, and I don't think that's something you put enough weight into FA. You didn't have to do the Persival claim and that + your voting record and extremely consistent pushes on only scum meant you were the clear Merlin. Meanwhile I think the main thing every other town player had in common was that they put up a pretty decent effort trying to obfuscate who Merlin was.

I think it's hard to play Merlin in this setup though - the main thing I was putting together towards endgame was that Merlin is very limited in how they are able to do their job. At some point you have to let the rest of the Town do some solving themselves as well.

PEdit: yeah this setup is good

I appreciate the kind words RC :)

I feel like optimal Merlin play is to not get found out by town tbh. If the whole town can coalesce behind your reads while thinking you're Merlin WITHOUT knowing who scum are, then scum should be able to find Merlin just as easily.
Basically town needs to not rely on Merlin as a crutch, but more as a balance to a scumsided setup.

Just my two cents. The setup is really interesting to me

It started as a pressure vote but then they gave me fuck-all to read them from in response to that pressure and I could see them easily flipping scum (in contrast to a couple of others being townreads by that point). And my philosophy going in was to try to be fairly assertive on a scum lynch Day 1 in a way that would make me look like a plausible Merlin.
I also reasoned that if Shiro was actually town then they were mislynch bait for D2 and we might need to lynch her D1 to have a shot at getting all the town to work together D2.

With 8 alive it's 5 to lynch.

Doesn't seem like I need to be imposing a deadline here TbH
What I find interesting here actually is that Kerset knew Morgana was on the scum wagon
I feel like this VC points strongly to gobble-scum from Kerset's point of view tbh

Though I'm also disappointed in myself D2 because I had a strong TR on Kerset which also indicates gobble-scum there

I'm just saying you had to actually scum hunt instead of vomiting reads.

and yeah well I thought about percival claiming as the only way I can keep merlin like info game. I tried to turn persival slot to a merlin by solving the game for them and acting like I know what is persival pair by framing someone who voted good and like merlin as merlin. I'm not saying it was the correct approach. maybe without it we would win. but at that point it felt like the correct play and I went with it knowing scum can remove me from game any moment they like as I already had 2 towns voting me where I did it.
I think you overvalued the benefits of the Merlin knowledge vs the downsides of getting caught as Merlin, particularly when we had already lynched one scum.
Having extremely accurate reads, only pushing scum, and doing the gambit made town's odds of winning very low, because in order for town to win Merlin must remain hidden, and you made yourself a very likely Merlin.

There was a decent chance that had you held off for a bit I'd have switched my vote over from you to gobble. I was already considering it.

This would probably be good as a Marathon trial game in the Micro queue
