finally a game I can give my thoughts on without judgement for how useless I am

[mhsmith0]

I agree, it's honestly really fun to be able to pseduo-talk with people in the game. It's probably not really that balanced over all, however, I feel like if you get enough people in here, it'll ultimately balance itself out. There will be some people who'll act purely as a pro-town player, some who'll act as a mixed bag, and some who'll act as a pro-scum player. I feel like the game will create a second game of mafia in here without roles as people kinda debate what side everyone is trying to help.

My other thing is that I'm waiting on seeing if DDL says that players can join the scum PT and forsake the ability to post in here. If that becomes a thing, then I'd assume that it's probably a bit safer to trust stuff coming in here as being from people looking at the game from a pro-town pov. I feel like most of the people who'd want to help the scum would join the scum PT and then they wouldn't be posting in here.

However, if that becomes a thing, then it's probably more worthwhile to go with what you said unless someone proves to be totally on town's side. If that's the case, and someone does, then I'd say it's worth taking their POV into account on certain things as well, but not letting it become everything you focus on. I also agree with the point of using people who bring an interesting perspective to the table, but I'd urge caution that it could be someone trying to help scum.

That's all I gotta say on the matter unless someone wants to post more about it.

This is a post just to be posting

Everyone tryharding on page 2 of this thread is a wolf

also

You see, I came here from the ToS Forum Mafia section. For about a year I played Mafia on that forum, and by the end I was without a doubt the most skilled active player there. Eventually the disparity was so vast that I had to be banned to keep things fair for the rest of the players (officially it was for abrasiveness, as many of their players suffer from SSS and my personality conflicted with that).

Anyway, I always claim day one (and yes it was serious, for those that didn't understand that), and press others for their claims. I do this for the purpose of analyzing the behavior of others to determine if they are scum or town. Already I'm picking apart your posts and those of others for a level of analysis that is probably higher than you could comprehend.

is this a copy pasta

is a fake busywork question

[mhsmith0]

I continue to feel excellent about my vote, anyone who wishes to join me for GREATER GLORY should do so

[mhsmith0]

I think vonflare controls that account though?

[mhsmith0]

why do you take peoples jobs?

because i'm on break from my day job

[mhsmith0]

On the upside, I think lycan's probably town here

[mhsmith0]

I've actually read the thread and have IMPORTANT reactions

Potential Rule Addition (that probably helps scum but should still make it fun)

Non-players can be requested to be added to the scum thread. These players are publicly announced in MD and here. Once added, these players may only post in the scum thread. They are no longer allowed to talk in MD, and may not replace in the game anymore. Recall any players outside of the game are still alignment neutral.

An upper bound on these non-players may be placed.

Please vote whether you approve of this rule addition via PM to me within 48 hours. This requires a 7/9 acceptance to be approved. (2/3 quorum for town-aligned players)

Maybe I should refuse to be helpful at all until said limit has passed (unless we're allowed to refuse said request?)

Compare Mastina and Korina.

(in semi related news I'm reminded that it's actually harder to see what's AI when you don't already know the answer b/c you're the host )

[mhsmith0]

I suppose I can stop shitposting for at least a little while
later all

[mhsmith0]

no shitpost more

(but i actually do have work to do lol )

[mhsmith0]

i was gonna tryhard in this game but lolsmithlazy

that quickhammer was so stupid i refuse

[mhsmith0]

Welcome TemporalLich!
(It’s more fun in shitposting land anyway )

[mhsmith0]

i mean.

i wouldn't count this as a win from outside of it either way

The key is to post in a way that after the fact you can justify having REALLY been on the side of either town or wolves so that you can lock in your win

[mhsmith0]

The proposal of Non-players being added to the scum PT has been rejected by players in the game.

Guess that means I might actually try at some point

[mhsmith0]

i think creature is town this game

It’s a hard read but I guardedly agree with you

[mhsmith0]

podoboq has died during Night 2. He was a

Townie

.

Day 2 Begins.

Isn't that Night 1?

[mhsmith0]

I haven't posted anything recently. I'll post thoughts though.
So, I'll need to do a re-read later, but, the TL lynch and Podo kill feel really weird to me.

Quickly glancing through TL's ISO, he appears to be townie to me, and then Podo biting bullet just... what?
His ISO doesn't feel that townie to the point I'd wanna outright NK him and it feels more like it'd be easier to just mislynch him at a later point.

I have two conflicting thoughts on it:
On one hand, scum is just dumb and decided that they wanted to shoot someone who could easily be ML'd later OR (tinfoil) the scum are so confident in their abilities, that they decided to shoot Podo, meaning that Fumuki (or someone else generally very TR'd) is actually scum.

I honestly need to do a deeper re-read later, but just some thoughts since I haven't posted anything recently.

It's semi-realistic that the wolves hadn't really processed that they actually CAN'T shut someone up since dead townies can post in this topic (which is, incidentally, the likeliest source of town power here, as opposed to the presence of drive-by's necessarily being protown)

[mhsmith0]

Ausuka is probably the best lynch in terms of scum equity and information for Lylo.

[mhsmith0]

Fumuki and TheBrie where do you plan on voting?

probably in the game thread

[mhsmith0]

I wish I’d have realized this was going on earlier!

VOTE: tammy
obvious wolfy popin is obvious

[mhsmith0]

Almost everyone looks scummy in the first couple pages. Think when I play again I’ll skip the first few pages and enter late.

But shitposting is the most fun part of the game!

[mhsmith0]

Trying to force the game into actual content on page 1-2 is both antitown and generally villgaery
Trying to keep the shitposting going as long as humanly possible is where greatness truly lies
Never ever stopping the shitposting spigot is a step beyond greatness

[mhsmith0]

looks like we'll have to wait a bit before they decide who they're mislynching this go around

I'm kinda confused by boon's stuff but I guess "yes it's me boon i WOULD do anything as scum" sort of makes sense here ?
