ah... that page bottom...
did another ms user do something lovely? recognize their achievements here!

Today's modern mafia consumer demands dozens, nay, hundreds of roles that are vanilla cops.

Reminder that I had a mission involving Fire Assassin/Vaxkiller's rankings
The idea of ranking someone based on role rather than behavior/alignment is really concerning to me. I don't understand how anyone is townreading Dunn after this.

Vax, your role isn't dependent on rankings at all?

MWNN is someone I can read. I'm not inclined to out my tells on him too hard given they're current and extremely useful (a lot of people fuck up reading him :P) but if it comes to a situation where we need to deal with that slot urgently I'm willing to elaborate a bit.

basically the way he called to strip away the bullshit and lynch people were actually scumreading is substantially more likely to come from town!him.

not everyone plays town the way you play town, and MWNN is a fantastic example of that. also why is taking a stance on you or Shepard town indicative?

I didn't say he plays town like me. I actually townread him for most of this game, in case you didn't realize. But I don't follow your reasoning, and right now I'm trying to sort you, not him.

sorry, I was in "sorting him" mode. you're not gonna be satisfied from this conversation tbh.

1. Should I not be scumreading you here?
2. Is taking a hard stance on you or Shepard town indicative? why/why not

1. You shouldn't be scumreading me because I'm town. But since I haven't given this game much time & effort yet, I understand why you might. If you're scumreading for reasons that don't have to do with my passivity/effort, that's a problem.

2. I don't think taking a stance on me or Shepard is AI by itself, but the reasoning underlying the stance might be. My point about MWNN has to do with the your reasoning, which isn't making much sense.

I'm starting to understand the difference between your town/scum play so I feel like discussing your reads/reasoning will help me get a better read on you now. I also know that you tend to townread people as scum in similar ways (paraphrasing, "this person is town because I actually know how to read them and this is definitely their town game" is something you've said as scum before).

Yeah, I'll be around.

I'm rereading the game right now so I have a lot of questions/topics to discuss.

I’m on a camping/ski trip at the moment and my time is a bit limited, so I’ll get into more detail later, but I actually find the ranking based on role thing to be fairly town as town are more likely to get excited about a PR and have it excessively influence their play, while I feel scum would try harder to pretend to be scumhunting.

I think that's very player specific. Is it likely for Dunn? or Espe?
