Good Work!In post 8, beeboy wrote:I've thought about the strategy to this game today and it is optimal play for town is to just hand the chain to whoever they are confident is town and is least likely to get a chain from someone else.
The person who holds the most power is the 2nd last person to hold the chain since they choose who dies,if we get a pool of 3 people, 2 scum and 1 town 33% of the time scum lives, same odds occur if we get a pool of 2 town 1 scumsince 66% of the time we have a 50% shot of hitting scum. So getting a whole bunch of scum at the end of our pool hardly helps us win. And letting town control who dies is incredibly valuable.
We also want a somewhat random town player being 2nd last so we shouldn't just select a "2nd last town" to make the kill, we want a fluid game state that allows for people to have free will especially in the early game since information is more valuable then actually hitting scum day 1 and 2. You can't solve a lot of players without letting them make hard hitting choices and by just shoving choices down their throat we can't ever get a solid read.
A for Effort!-

Because if scum is third-to-last, controlling it means they don't get a chance to save a buddy, when that is a position where scum is highly likely to select a buddy.

@raya: i think this will be a good plan, i can see a few hiccups but i thinks its best to scum hunt. Get town vibes, the normal stuff with some fos. Keep an eye on deadline so we do have a lynch and make sure whom ever is the deciding player isnt MIA to make that final choice.-

I feel as if they might be a mislynch target normally and I think they are having a feud with ABR I’m not entirely sure on that. I trust their posts enough to save them for today to make sure someone scummy gets lynched over Pink Ball.
Reya
Usually my plan was just to choose Pink Ball but assuming Pink Ball is already chosen then I’d choose Reya.
They have shown some Townie posts and good contribution. While other players haven’t been really doing that.
The reason I won’t choose you and Dunn is because you guys are both playing pretty strong and you are obvious Town targets to pick to keep.
Usually if scum can’t pick their buddy they would pick you or Dunn because your the “easy route”
And they get a higher chance for a mislynch.-

A scum who calls a bunch of people’s posts bad with little to no reasoning and barley does anything else Town productive
Or
A scum who fits into town and does Townie things giving actual solid thoughts with explanations behind it.

You want explanation on someone but don’t give any yourself for yours truly. (TSE)
I’ll say this though.
Midwaybear at least gave his explanation on why he believes me to be scummy, unlike you.
I also feel like you might be trying to attempt to pocket Midwaybear and get him to Town read you because for starters he isn’t a main Town read. He’s a middle man. So town reading Dunn and Bee is casual. Their strong it’s normal. Not exactly going to get you anywhere. Now you think hmm. They definitely aren’t going to be the last to choose on the chain.
So what do you do? Simple.
You pick someone in the middle area AKA Midwaybear and decide “Hey!” “If I can get them on my side they will pick me to stay around”
Typical scum play Tbh.-

Typical scum play Tbh.weird and talk too much, even if I'm repeating myself I lightly touched upon this in #254. I think you'll continue to act this way because it doesn't benefit you anymore to be comprehensible, this is just an angle you're going to take for the rest of the game. This is why I didn't like you and before I even got the chance to sit down you were ready to condemn me
Spoiler Alert!Spoiler:
Look IDC if you don’t like me. It’s irrelevant towards the game.
And OFC I’m going to engage with you, I’m trying to figure out your slot.
Your still Scum IMO.
Also, everyone has their own playstyles. I’m sick and tired of people treating it as something else.
Playstyles aren’t ever Alignment Indicative. Playstyles are the way people’s personalities are.
You can’t discredit that, it’s fact. Playstyle isNEVERalignment indicative.
It’s the way they go about it, the motivation behind what they do, how they approach it that determines someone’s alignment.
Not Playstyle.-

I don't think I'm following this line of thought. Bee and Dunn are obvious to keep I agree with. I agree that if scum can't pick their buddy a strong town is a good choice.

Wouldn't it be better to do that and take away that easy option for scum?In post 195, TrueSoulEnergy wrote: The reason I won’t choose you and Dunn is because you guys are both playing pretty strong and you are obvious Town targets to pick to keep.
Usually if scum can’t pick their buddy they would pick you or Dunn because your the “easy route”
And they get a higher chance for a mislynch.
Another thought I had during work is the shade on midwaybear. This is going off the FoS list I've seen but ???? is what I come to when reading his posts. What about them is so concerning from the other lot who are essentially sitting on their hands? When it comes down to how I like to play games it's that I enjoy reading t`hHypocrite*Cough*
You want explanation on someone but don’t give any yourself for yours truly. (TSE)
I’ll say this though.
Midwaybear at least gave his explanation on why he believes me to be scummy, unlike you.
I also feel like you might be trying to attempt to pocket Midwaybear and get him to Town read you because for starters he isn’t a main Town read. He’s a middle man. So town reading Dunn and Bee is casual. Their strong it’s normal. Not exactly going to get you anywhere. Now you think hmm. They definitely aren’t going to be the last to choose on the chain.
So what do you do? Simple.
You pick someone in the middle area AKA Midwaybear and decide “Hey!” “If I can get them on my side they will pick me to stay around”
Typical scum play Tbh.weird and talk too much, even if I'm repeating myself I lightly touched upon this in #254. I think you'll continue to act this way because it doesn't benefit you anymore to be comprehensible, this is just an angle you're going to take for the rest of the game. This is why I didn't like you and before I even got the chance to sit down you were ready to condemn me
You can’t discredit that, it’s fact. Playstyle isNEVERalignment indicative.

I strongly disagree with you, but we'd just be going into semantics if I talked further on it. The point that should be made here is: what are you getting out of all this? Did you just come at me with some half-hearted read expecting me to buckle or something?
And you wonder why you lose games as Town because you end up mislynching players.-

Middle Ground
This is a person in the Null zone that isn’t really getting recognized as an important player.
Like not town nor Scum.
Not entirely Null but rather someone they are like “there there but they aren’t a concern”
As usually those players are scum.
Sometimes these players are Lean Town with no attention towards them whatsoever, so my suggestion is get these people the attention they should have.
Playstyle
Playstyles are never alignment indicative.
Never consider it as such.
Some Playstyles are naturally bad and as a result people tend to scum read that when they honestly shouldn’t.
Strong Playstyles
Just because someone has a Strong Playstyle you should never just instantly Town read them. If they are Town scum however are usually likely to do that. But keep in mind Players with strong Playstyles are able to play Townie as either alignment. So he careful.
Misguided Town
Pretty much it’s where Town is pushing town.
And you got to realize the difference between it.
This applies to a town pushing you as well.
You got to figure out where there alignment is from and you got to understand that you aren’t always right
Shade
Most of the time scum will shade a post.
Usually call a post bad or “I don’t like this” or some form of saying the post is bad.
That in itself isn’t always scummy but if they have no or have a lack of explanation towards their shade then it’s usually a scum tell.
Safe Vote
Scum will usually join a wagon that makes it so they don’t get any blame to them when the wagon is a mislynch.
Usually wagons like these are ones where there are Bad Playstyle Players, Players that made a mistake and Town are stupidly not seeing it, etc. get mislynched.
It’s a free getaway.
Alternatively it’s allowing them to join a free mislynch and it’s easy to spot if you look closely.
Interactions
When people interact with each other it can be used to determine others alignments as 2 or more players are going back and fourth allowing yourself to get a better read on those players to help determine their alignments
Pure or Forced?
Look at a post and look and see if it seemed honest and/or logical or if it felt forced like it shouldn’t have been said/didn’t feel right.
Pocket
Scum will sometimes pocket people if they believe doing so can allow others to be mislynched and they just have to keep you alive. So watch out for a potential pocket and an easy way to figure it out is to do a Scum/Town Tell Check and see if their actually town reading you as Town or scum just trying to use you.
Scum Telling.
To tell who’s scum it’s best to look at each player’s Motivation, Actions, Usage of context, Tone, How they do approach things and how they respond, etc.
There are many different types of Tells but these are stuff you look at.-

Why exactly do you think that?
