Hey LicketyQuickety,
Can you explain in more detail what you meant by this?
Thanks,

So you're saying you would want a cop to come out day 2 and tell the mafia who they are?In post 6, LicketyQuickety wrote: As my first action, the cop isgoingto investigate Nachomamma8 and you are going to Town read me for saying such.
The IC is a player assigned to a game with the responsibility of teaching new players how mafia works and helping them understand theory. Yes, ICs can be assigned as mafia, andIn post 11, Superhans wrote:Hello Everybody!
LicketyQuickety, what do you mean by IC? You're an experienced ayer right, meant to help us noobs? Are can ICs be assigned as mafia?
Sorry for these very basic questions but it would be even stupider of me not to.ask.

I am the ICs, which stand for "Inexperienced Challenged" player. My primary job is to help guide you through whatever part of the game you're struggling with and to demonstrate "typical play" to a certain degree. Mafia is an interesting game where there are not really "right" and "wrong" answers; certain things produce better results than others and certain things work better for some people than they do for others, the key is developing a playstyle that allows you to figure out where you're going wrong and improve as a result. As a result, the two ways that I will be the most useful to you are by answering questions - any question (what are you doing? why are you doing this? does that really work?) I will answer to the best of my ability, and, if you're interesting in learning, the best thing to do is ask questions. The second way I will be useful to you is the observations you can make from my play and my interactions with the more experienced players - you'll learn how to get a game started, you'll learn how I tend to lead, and you'll learn how I hunt scum or how I fool town. As an IC, it is not my job to hold back or baby you - I'll treat you just how I treat any other player I come across, which means that if I'm reading as scum, I won't give you room unless you earn it. If my play is bothering you, of course, don't hesitate to talk to me about it - I am at the end of the day a reasonable person despite my aggression and it's not my intention to make this experience unfun for you in any way.In post 11, Superhans wrote:LicketyQuickety, what do you mean by IC?

Content doesn't spring from nothing; there were probably things that you could have done to get the game moving at this point.In post 13, Lovesick wrote:ICs can be any alignment I believe, they're here to help the new, troubled players with the ways things work and etc however no more than that - correct me if I'm wrong though. Hopefully we have a spike of activity at one point otherwise this game may get difficult.
I don't agree with this.In post 23, Rautherdir wrote:The goal for day one is to create conversation. A self-vote doesn't really have the ability to do that. Which is why it's considered scummy to vote for yourself.
I don't really understand what you're saying here.In post 24, Rautherdir wrote:However, the reason I didn't vote for TheDominator37 is because we need that conversation to happen. A bandwagon on day 1 does almost nothing if we aren't actually talking.
Self-voting is not necessarily scummy, especially in RVS. Self-hammering is almost always scummy.In post 34, Nachomamma8 wrote:I don't agree with this.In post 23, Rautherdir wrote:The goal for day one is to create conversation.

I don't think that self-voting yourself is scummy; most things are about the intention behind them and at the end of the day scum don't really have that much reason to vote for yourself. I do think that self-votes can generate discussion; they are a thing that confuses people and when people are confused they tend to talk. Whether the content generated is meaningful is a different story but typically content is generated.

Played SC2 mafia and a little TOS.

Odd that you'd have a townread on someone after they just accused you of trying to get the cop to out when that wasn't the case at all.In post 30, LicketyQuickety wrote:Town read on Connor JC.
The only way we'd know a cop actually made that investigation is if they came out and claimed cop and said what they did. It's not town's job to convince other players they are town, instead, it's town's job to find scum.In post 41, Nachomamma8 wrote:LQ obviously didn't say anything about the cop outing Day 2.In post 27, ConnorJC wrote:So you're saying you would want a cop to come out day 2 and tell the mafia who they are?In post 6, LicketyQuickety wrote: As my first action, the cop isgoingto investigate Nachomamma8 and you are going to Town read me for saying such.

If you are town, you assumed something about LQ's statement that you shouldn't have. If you are scum, you just stretched your neck out too far to make a bad attack. I think that it's the latter; convince me otherwise.
