I don't see why mafia wouldn't all pick gun
This run is different from other runs in that the number if total roses is stated at the started instead of only how many town roses
That gives scum more ability to muddy the waters there
ok but how does it help the scum team to know the true number of town roses is 9 instead of 10? the goal is to eliminate mafia each day regardless of how many roses are alive no?

it is kind of pointless to speculate on what optimal scum strategy is because if we only have one claimed gun then we know its three scum guns versus 10 town roses and a town gun right?

we also have several people who suggested that town should not claim guns yet because that flags them for being not potentially protected
the mafia know how many guns they have and conversely how many town roses there are.

yesss i fail to see why that means we should claim though
while it is something they have information about that we do not
we also do not have any way of figuring it out with a claim
if the mafia is three guns then they already know the town is 10 roses + 1 gun and wheme is that gun.
its only in the case that there's more than one town gun that mafia really gain new information like who the other town gun is.

I will entertain your speculation though Bulge.
if I am mafia, what is the point of "rolefishing" that you claim I'm doing.
Be specific in your formulation, I'll even format it in a way that's understandable for most users of the english language since I don't really understand your shitty gif posting.
"Aristeia is a mafia player doing rolefishing; her goal is to _____ which will help her win because of _____ and this is advantageous because ____"
or
"Aristeia's strategy is to find out _____ in order to _______"

attempt at thread control? I barely even bother to post more than one time a day in this thread where the fuck are you getting thread control vibes
narrative control is probably more accurate. shutting down d1 scum strat speculation rubs me the wrong way, esp when you only seem interested in discussing claims. what's the point of assuming there are 3 scum guns and then not going any further with that speculation? it's all noise.

pedit - do you disagree or are you being obtuse?
how about you try with english and clearly state what you are talking about

to reduce noise in the thread
to what end?? you haven't shown any interest in sorting alignments
you think pushing enchant for lying about his pick is not sorting alignments?

also you feel very different from that time we played where you tunneled datisi town d1 in a hilariously bad way because despite being totally wrong you at least had a decent argument for why he was mafia and you sounded like you believed it.
here you're just taking shitty potshots that are kind of ridiculous

whemestar claimed gun
so if theres 3 scum guns and whemestar is town - then the mafia already know the entire setup.
massclaiming only helps the town catch up in its understanding of the game state.
the reason I wanted to massclaim is because if theres only one claimed gun and its whemestar, I'd want to push Enchant because in my mind there's no way enchant is town and decides to pick rose over gun.
it is a way of scumhunting that is better than a no information vacuum because the players more likely to pick gun as town are then more likely to be mafia because according to the massclaim they didn't pick gun.
These are very clear and obvious benefits to me for massclaiming and pretty obviously what I am going for.
the mafia already know how many town guns/roses there are. They are operating on a higher information state than us and know how to play out this game state.
massclaiming just evens the stage and allows us to operate with more information.
this is what i mean when I say explain thought process about mass claim and benefits.
now bulge just fucking says shit like "mass claim has no benefit"
and that's just ??? to me because it obviously does have benefits but he's going to just pretend there aren't any and write wordvomit like "10 roses is a far more controlled environment than if the gun/rose spread were more even. we should be taking advantage of that control by using the information we have in a careful deliberate manner."

like at no point did bulge actually try to understand my strategy or why I would be trying to follow it as town.
instead he's just saying things like
"massclaim is bad"
"ari wants massclaim so shes bad"
"hurr durr fishing meme gif"
"ari wants thread control"
its asnine
and you claim I'm the one treating him in bad faith?
like no I tried to understand wtf he was talking about and his response is to just state the same things back to me again without any underlying thought process.
i am coming from a place where i can see that either scum is okay with claiming gun or several town players picked gun instead of just one
no I don't think you really understand my perspective because after I wrote a long post explaining the benefits of mass claiming you basically came in and said there is not benefit to mass claiming
whether there are three scum guns or not is a fact at this point. there either are or there are not - in case there are - we can force the issue and gain an advantage.
you are handwaving all of this with a lot of what-ifs but you haven't actually shown any downside to the approach of actually mass claiming - you claim it would give scum an advantage but you haven't explain what that advantage is.
you've made a bunch of claims about how town can lie to scum for advantage but that requires a specific series of things to occur and doesn't actually help us with our primary goal which is to catch mafia.

I don't understand where you're coming from here. I am one of the highest posters with questions and some already-given opinions about the game. I was simply commenting on how the current conversation was helping people gamesolve. You can disagree with me, but you don't have to disparage my contribution here.
how productive do you think post 394 actually is Taly to advancing the game state.

like do you think you get nothing from my conversation with Theta?
do you think it looks like 2 mafia who are theatering?
do we look un-aligned with each other?
do you think I believe what I'm saying? do you think theta does? do you think either of us are more likely town or scum because of it?
all of these are things you can be saying
or you can say something like this conversation is NAI and clogging up the thread you both should stop if you think both of us would behave exactly the same regardless of our role
but then I'd question what actual thread conversation are we supposed to be derailing? thread looks pretty dead to me.

like popping in to say oh this is unproductive without actually doing anything productive yourself or having a direction you want to push the game in just feels like you saying things that you think look good
