for some reason I thought that mafia had to place at least one of each of themselves in each group. can someone confirm for me whether this is the case?

Someone called this fake recently: I can confirm I had a similar thought when we began the game, perhaps because the listed mafia partition game had some ambiguous wording which made this seem like the case, so I can't really agree with that claim.
It comes off as fake as fuck and if its 2-0-1 YOU ARE THE 1.

This is a true bruh moment. I didn't know how this guy found out so quickly we were scum. You guys truly picked a garbage partition, thanks for this bullshit.

No joking though, looking back this guy's entire identity is based around flaming group 1, complaining about scum being stupid, and asking us to lynch group 1. Would need to check meta to see if he's just like that or if there's something with this game ticking him off.

I just noticed, checking meta isn't even necessary at this point. This guy is misleading the rest of town, so I say if we only lose two town members at the most, we should just lynch group 2 to get rid of him. VOTE: group 2 I think my vote is on them, but just to confirm.

Correct. Group 2 is the safest lynch for the day. Scumhunting is not needed to win this game only outWIFOM scum.

In post 386, Mohab500 wrote:This stuff is why I told people to stop stressing so much about partitions earlier. Partitions should be used a secondary method of determining a lynch, not as the main one. Scuminess of a player should always, always take priority over random thoughts about 'what scum would do with partitions!'. Yes, lynching group 1 is incredibly risky, because if there is anything less than 2 scum in there, we instantly lose. So yes, scum probably put three there because they know we think a group 1 lynch is too risky, and they're playing on our paranoia. But hold on, what if they knew that we knew that we'd figure out they'd put all three in group 1 because we consider it too risky? So they split them up to 1-1-1, or 1-0-2. But hold on, we also know that they'd know that we would know that they would know that we would know the risk of lynching group 1. So we don't lynch group 1, but hey, hold on...

And it goes on and you could make the same argument for pretty much every logical partition choice. It makes no sense to keep theorising this much about partitions when there are way too many possibilities and in the end, we only end up misleading ourselves into thinking someone is scum because of how we think the partition is split.

I am going to go ahead and skim the previous pages to get reads on players, I am still fairly lost on what's going on and who's reading who in what fashion. I recommend everyone drop the partition issue for now and we'll deal with it when we actually get some good leads regarding the players themselves. Anyone who keeps trying to predict the partitions isn't trying to scumhunt: they're just pretending to scumhunt.
This literally reads like backtracking scum trying to add 2nd level WIFOM when their logic stopped at level 1 WIFOM and they got completely trapped.

What?

Why is voting Group 2 better than Group 3? Getting rid of "lynchbait" is surely better than yourself and another.

we lynch group 1 we get 2 scum guaranteed maybe 3.

Game becomes 1 scum v 4 town
Scum kill
1 v 3 town

2 lynches to catch 1 scum. Easy odds for town to win.

Really, you don't think that would be a townslip? I struggle to believe you think that.

Are you aware mafia form partitions pregame, and would therefore be very aware of how they can insert themselves in the groups, and would be discussing strategies?
I mean I just had the rules wrong in my head this whole time about how mafia have to allocate themselves. I don’t particularly think that’s alignment indicative? Are you saying it’s a “townslip” because mafia would discuss whether or not they have to allocate one to each group?

- Daenerys
Yeah, it would be a townslip since that misinterpretation would certainly be addressed and corrected while they formed partitions, as understanding that rule correctly is essential to that process.

Do you still disagree it would be a townslip?

It's not a stupid conversation. We're establishing the fact that your posts at the start of the game are definitely not NAI.

If it's a genuine slip, you are town.

Otherwise, you are scum, since you wouldn't be confused about that detail.

And now we are arguing about whether it’s genuine, which of course I will say it is and of course you are saying it’s not. If you believe it’s fake, then I’m not sure how I’m supposed to convince you it’s genuine.

Therefore this is a stupid conversation to be having.
