IC Intro, adapted from many othersHey everybody! I'm Irrelephant, your Inexperience-Challenged (IC) player for the game (it's my third time)! That means I am here to lead by example and answer your questions along the way. I will be playing to my win condition to the best of my ability, but if you have questions about Game Theory or Da Rules, I am required to answer them honestly, and to be clear when I am speaking as am IC vs. as a Player.

Here are some helpful links (a lot of them from our helpful wiki):

-> Forum Rules and Guidelines
-> The Glossary
-> Commonly Used Abbreviations
-> The Newbie Guide
-> Articles on How to Play Well (be sure to check the dates these were written/updated, as good advice changes over time)

And here are some helpful tips:

->
Try to check in at least once a day.
Besides the activity requirements listed in Plotinus' original post, it's just necessary for a fun and healthy game that everyone
plays
. If you post very rarely, or only post a little bit at a time, you may get scumread for lurking. Even if you are not scumread for it, what's the fun in playing a game where multiple people are hardly participating?

->
"Site Meta"
is the description of how people on Mafiascum like to play mafia. Things can be different on other online mafia sites, or if you play IRL, so it's good to know what's expected of you on this site. These aren't "rules", per se, but if you don't follow these guidelines it is likely things will go poorly for you on MS. Some examples are...

--->
Give "intent to hammer"
when you want to place the final vote on a player. This gives time for that player to give a final plea and to claim their power role, if they have one (or if they are lying scum). If, after that player has posted, you are still sure you want to hammer them, go ahead and place the final vote. It is also common courtesy to declare "L-1" ("1 Vote away from lynch) when you place the penultimate vote on a player.

---> Don't claim your role until you are in danger of getting lynched - usually, you want to keep it a secret right up until someone gives intent to hammer. Sometimes, everyone will agree to claim in a "massclaim".
Other than these situations, do not make your role obvious,
even if you are a vanilla townie, as claiming makes it easier for scum to kill power roles at night.

--->
Do not fake claim a power role as town!
While it may help you avoid getting lynched, you might cause a real PR to out themselves by counter claiming - then the mafia will know who the PR is, and you will probably get lynched for lying to town. Feel free to fake a claim as scum, though, if you think it would help.

--->
Don't vote for yourself.
There are very rare occasions where this is helpful in non-newbie games, but usually only for scum, so if you do it here you will certainly get scumread for it.

->
Mafia is hard!
As town, it can be hard to figure things out, and stressful when people think you're scum.
That's okay!
Just share your thoughts on who you think is scum as they come to you, and don't be afraid to change your mind. As scum, it can be hard to lie convincingly, and stressful when people think you're scum. Don't let that scare you! Try to think of what you would post if you were town, and don't be afraid to "change your mind".

-> This is a game.
Have fun!
:]

Hi AbyssalLord! I can't be a scumteam with ceejay and lames, that's too many people. wanna dive into why scum is more likely to share early townreads than town? or share any other reads so far?

Muh, notably, you actually haven't "addressed my question". You've only asked a different one in return. I'd still like an answer

Given my last game with Lamees, I find the "LOOK AT ME AND GIVE ME ATTENTION" all-caps entrance to be like 2% more likely to come from town-Lamees than scum-Lamees. I voted Lamees because I usually vote someone I recognize in RVS. I didn't yet have a townread on her, though. I shared the townread a few posts later, when I came to think of it. Why did you present my actions out of order like that?

lamees, I probably agree, but I'm not loving AbyssalLord's entrance. Are you townreading it?

okay, cool, just wondering if there was one particular post that gave you the read. I'll accept "feeling" as a reason this early.

Cool, I think I'm townreading you a little.
Though, it's generally frowned upon to guess who's PR and who isn't - that helps scum more than it helps town. It's also more common on this site for PRs to play more subtle until they decide to claim, anyway.

Really? I felt like everyone was calling me pushy/saying I was asking too many questions in that game.

If you couldn't tell, I'm trying to get the game moving past the RVS stage. I often do this, and I get less aggressive once there's more to talk about

I'm inclined to believe the townslip for now, but it's nowhere near "clearing", since some newbies who roll scum their first time know enough to fake it

I think wagoning is pro-town in general (though obviously it can lead to mislynches sometimes), because the pressure it provides helps to find scum

Agree that weekends are usually a less active time onsite
Disagree that I only like Lamees because they followed my vote - if she had followed onto another wagon I would townread her for that, too

In retrospect, I like Jim's reasoning for scumreading Lamees, though - it's more well-thought-out than I originally realized. I don't like AbyssalLord's vote, though. "they have been following votes around" - AL, can you explain why that makes her more likely to be scum?

Child, any other scumreads? Your vote is most helpful as a tool when it's pressuring players to play better.
In post 124, Jim Hawkins wrote:As far as "everyone else," honestly, I'm not getting much of a read on anyone, town or scum. I guess I'm not sure if it's too early to have reads on everyone, or if I'm not analyzing people's posts deep enough. Still trying to get into the swing of this.
It is pretty early to have strong reads, but often to begin with people will share their "leans" - the players they're really *feeling* are one alignment or another.

I'm about here:

Town
{Lamees, muh316}
{Jim, Child, okx}
{ceejay, auhsoj} - about here is null, though by process of elimination I should maybe call these two scumleans as well

I really really don't think Lamees is scum here
I recognize that her play could potentially have the goal of pocketing me but I don't feel at all pocketed - my reason for townreading her has next to nothing to do with the fact that her votes match mine. Rather, it's her play on the whole. And I don't think her using her vote very freely is scummy - actually, town usually feel much more comfortable throwing their vote around (scum don't like the attention it gets them)
Please do not lynch Lamees today.

Is anyone strongly townreading abyssallord, aside from the "slip" (which is easily faked)?

If everyone could provide readslists in the next 24 hours, that would be extremely helpful. We need to arrive at a lynch soon, and I don't think Lamees is a good choice.

Alright, without the previous post, i could let this slide. But now i cant see your reasoning.
Why are you trying so desperately to get a wagon? Most of the people you voted didnt even write anything contributing to the convo. There are two reasons you seem to bring about with this wagon:
First is to get out of RVS, in which case voting anyone and seeing their reactions will do fine. No reason in changing from whoever you were voting before.
And in the second post, you say that joshua might be the wrong player. And what do you mean by wrong player? He hasnt responded yet, and you just seem to want to jump from wagon to wagon. Explain what you want to do, clearly, uncontradictary.

So you're new huh? Tough luck, you could've just passed this off as simply "i dont know how to play" but you had to compare yourself to muh. Not taking the blame and shifting it by comparing your newbie self to someone more experienced to gain sympathy is the oldest trick in the book. You're going to the gallows, regardless of how much experience you have.

Scum can indeed figure out who’s widely townread based on readslists, and nightkill them, but they might figure that out anyway (who isn’t being suspected by the other players?) and readslists provide a kind of accountability - you have to show you believe your reads

Town
{Lamees, muh316}
{Jim, CJ}
{Child, okx} - null line. I don’t have a reason to scumreading either of these players but I also have a hard time seeing the game from their perspective/understanding their reads.

Yeah wow that’s L-1. That was almost too easy... but if someone posts intent to lynch him, we should then ask for a claim.

Anyone think dong is town?

I agree that we shouldn’t lynch him yet, but I think his entrance is very scummy. Without showing much thought as to why, he says he finds the two biggest wagons scummy. I find it overly convenient to the point of being the scummiest play so far. How do you read it?

Lol after I flip scum you can brag about catching me
Till then the two words are synonyms

I agree that it was too quick and fairly likely to be a play style thing but I still want a little more from dong before I unvite (“the IC wants my mislynch”, really? That’s sorta what I mean by throwing shade. How was I supposed to know the wagon would grow quickly?)

Well we got two wagons up to L-1, so we did something good here at least (all the more to analyze later)
If both wagons are on town then I bet there’s one scum on each wagon
Actually there might be one scum on each wagon either way

@Jim how do you feel about these wagons?

Dongempire can you see why I would be suspicious of your entrance being: questioning the two most widely scumread players, ignoring all other slots, and then voting on one of the two most popular wagons?
I might come around to you being town (probably more from the way your wagon formed so quickly rather than your play so far), but i think it makes perfect sense from an objective point of view why i scumread you.

I think Abyssal might be the better lynch today, but your play has mostly defensive, which is hard to read either way. Who’s towny in your eyes?

I’m still interested to hear Child explain his Okx read, too.

Wow the tone this page got a lot more aggressive
Not my style but it’ll hopefully keep things moving this game, so that’s honestly fine w me

I think I’m townreading dongempire’s self-righteous anger, actually. I think it’s pretty rare for scum to be so audacious as to say “how dare you scumread me?!?!” And the fact that muh316 found another game where he showed aggression is towny for both of them I think.

I need to re-evaluate, some.

I’m only mobile posting lately so answers to your questions coming soon - I can’t do my usual quote walls

I’m rereading this today to firm up my reads and explain them
ICs are sometimes killed just for being IC’s so I’ll try to get everything in my head into the thread

I definitely don’t want a muh, dong, or lamees lunch. I’d prefer not to lynch Child either I think? Like I said I’ll be getting more thorough tonight.

CJ has been lynchbait before I think, or at least I know his play style sometimes gets him scumread
Having said that, I’m finding the cases against him somewhat convincing. Almost done rereading

Lamees you seem easier to read/understand here than in our last game. Is that intentional?

ohx for same reason as abyssallord was pushed, no actual content aside from asking people to post content, which i dont like. why i scumread him and not abyssal is the fact that him not participating much is sort of put under the rug, while abyssal is pushed even after a supposed "townslip", early reading would suggest a possible ohx-muh team to me, although its a bit of a stretch, considering the fact that i dont even scumread muh. its very possible though
i still have the same opinion, basically i think ohx is the worse version of abyssallord.


also adding irrelephant to scumpool, removing lamees.
Missed this before
-I think that the use of “easy” and “fast” in this case would basically be synonyms. I’ve always found word choice to “catch” town more often than scum, and unless you’re scumreading anything else about my oplay, I think your read on me is a reach.
-I had literally just said “i didn’t understand your okx read”, which implies I remembered it but wanted you to explain again. To be clear, your scumread is “I don’t like his requests for content w/o providing content himself, and I think he could be scum with someone I’m townreading”? I sort of get the first reason but I think the second one is... not really a reason.
-the reason to not scumread abyssal sort of tracks though I guess (fast wagon)

Town
Muh316 - has been logical, made pushes, lacks agenda, and overall shows scumhunting
Dongempire - self-righteous anger is towny, and his case on ceejay seems hard to make as scum (hard to fake that sort of thought process) even moreso than I find it damning for ceejay himself
Lamees - I think wagoning is town-indicative, I think her analysis of players like ceejay and abyssal show town thought processes
Jim - entrance to the thread was strong in retrospect, shows towny skepticism (“please explain how “ceejay seems a little mafia” is your entire case”)
Child - similar reads, lots of scumhunting in the ISO, kinda townreading the push on me that isn’t gaining traction (as opposed to scum trying to gather the momentum for a mislynch)

Willing to lunch
Ceejay - unexplained reads I don’t understand, opportunistic voting patterns (whoever’s lynchable, as opposed to whoever he’s been suspecting)
Abyssal - the townslip could be faked (I faked a townslip as a newbie scum before), and his ISO is pretty empty of scumhunting content
Okx - most of his reads seem to be based on ~feeling~ and eventually I’d expect him to be able to point to specific things as the game has picked up and wagons have rose and fallen

Okx and abyssal are similar in my mind. One of them has already claimed, and it’s abyssal, so I’d rather do the abyssal lynch
I’ll compromise on okx if it’s the only lynch we can get before deadline, though (I’ll be here just before deadline)

In post 305, Lamees wrote:The abyssal lynch is not good for town imo. I have a feeling he is actually VT as he claimed. The lynch will be rushed and I'm not even sure what we gain from it. High chance of the wagon being all town as everyone just wants a lynch.

Town AND scum would be likely to rush a miss lynch. I usually agree that a lynch is better than no lynch. But this case I'll go:

No lynch > abyssal lynch. A miss lynch on town for info is worthwihile, BUT I don't see what info we can gain from an abyssal miss lynch here.
No Lynch is a really bad choice for D1, though. A mislynch is better than a no lynch D1, even if it feels counter intuitive. It’s because of the numbers. If we no lynch and scum kills a townie overnight, we’ll have 8 players left. It will still take five to lynch, but with one less townie, it’ll be much harder for town to coordinate a lynch without scum manipulating the lynch

That said, I’m not heavily scumreading Okx, but I do feel like I have pretty good reasons to townread most of the rest of the players, so VOTE: okx

Jailkeeper generates innos as quickly as a tracker when there’s only one scum left
Jailkeeper also has a chance to stop the nightkill by hitting either the mafia or the mafia’s Target (though in this case the latter would always have been CJ)
Anyway it’s not that interesting a point except that jailkeeper was objectively the right kill to make

If the claim is true, then Ceejay Jailkeeps OkX, and Okx can get us a confirmed town or not-town on D2. That should help us narrow down possible scum suspects. Also, then we know we have a Mafia Rolecop/Goon combo which means we don't have a Mafia roleblocker to prevent Ceejay/Okx from acting.

Anyway, if anyone wants to counterclaim, please do so. If there is a counterclaim I'll hammer.

Alright upon reread I think I do agree that dong & child are the two we probably shouldn’t lynch ever (along with me and abyssal)

Whoever is in lylo (if lylo happens) please do a reread of the other two slots before voting
I still think muh is townier than Jim but I’ll vote either
Interested to hear more from empire

In post 370, Lamees wrote:I mean if child or dong bussed we just have to accept a loss. There's no way to find out lol
I disagree with this though. Bussing can get caught out by reading carefully
Don’t rush any game day
Scum can still make mistakes, and they’re easier to catch when you don’t rush through a game phase (usually)

I still think it’s VOTE: Jim
His recent read list doesn’t make sense - me and Abyssal should be at the top of anyone’s reads
dongempire is actually a slight possibility here
I now think Child is less likely to be scum than dong

Since no one else has claimed tracker, I have to be the tracker (the jailkeeper and Rolecop flips confirm that there has to be a tracker)
Since I am the tracker, I can say with certainty that Abyssal did not do the nightkill, and since there’s only one mafia and the nightkill happened, that makes Abyssal confirmed town.
Why does the fact that Lamees was on every wagon cause you to scumread her? I don’t see why that’s scummy (indeed, i did the same, and i am confirmed to be a townie)

Setup Information

Each Newbie Game will be given a setup that incorporates one mafia role from the top of a column, and then two town roles from a row below the selected mafia role. The remaining six roles will be filled in by
one mafia goon
and
five vanilla townies
appropriately, to create a
2-mafia
and
7-town
setup.

All Newbie games use the Natural Action Resolution system for determining Night action effects.
Mafia Roleblocker
action takes precedence over a
Town Jailkeeper
action should that apply.

Mafia have access to their Private Topic at all times.

I was super strong scum reading the two of you since the game began. Since only one of you can be scum at this point, I started considering more recent events surrounding the D1 lynch, N1, and D2.


Also, for real....can anyone confirm the order of night actions, and which actions take precedence over others?
I think you misunderstand my question about Lamees
If I can be on every wagon
and be town
, why can’t Lamees *also* be on every wagon and be town?
It’s not a reason to scumread her in my opinion
