Hi guys, I am your friendly IC, Lil Uzi Vert. An IC is a voluntary teaching position and I am obligated to follow this and thus I cannot lie about game theory.
Most IC's will tell you to read the wiki and I agree, you should. It's a great resource but it is not a bible. Of particular note are Commonly Used Abbreviations and glossary and as always feel free to ask me anything.
I’ll be adding more stuff as we go along but the best way to learn is from experience so if you haven’t already, jump in, be active, and have fun!-

This threw me as well. I'm obsessive about games I join or I'd probably still be dicking around on tumblr. lolIn post 74, Lil Uzi Vert wrote:Didn’t get a day start PMBipolar • ADHD • Call me Sunny • GTKAS

Uh were you talking about RVS? If so, there is no right or wrong way, just let things flow naturally
No. No. Self-voting is a big no no.In post 15, RedFlavor wrote:gosh I need to vote myself for that
VOTE: redflavor
Self-voting early is a deliberately provocative act. Sometimes a deliberately provocative act can generate useful discussion, however making yourself easy to attack will mean it's easier for scum to attack you in a way which blends in with how the town attacks you. As such DPAs more often lead to noise and confusion, although self-voting is not really any more egregious than any other DPA.
If the town is incapable of generating discussion any other way, a DPA is useful, but most of the time it is a very sub-optimal way of getting people talking.
The other applications are the self-hammer, which is often valid for scum and very, very rarely appropriate for town.-

What do you find weird about it? Are you town reading Red or just find that so far, there are no valid reasons to suspect him?In post 26, Sunset at dawn wrote:I guess I'll vote sheep. It seems kind of weird to want so many votes on red.
Vote: Sheep-

Avi, out of curiosity, what’s your mafia experience? How would you describe the way you scum hunt?In post 53, Aviqf wrote:Although inferno's posts are awkward, I don't think this shows scum. I look at his past games, and his wording is just as awkward.

why do newbies force everythingIn post 72, Aviqf wrote:Everything in that list is relative, so I'm not like reading SD as strong town, just a slight to medium town read.
SD's questions look genuine. Asking Saul why he wasn't posting, then backing down was a minor gesture, but I read it as town.
Saul's caution looks town.
Creature isn't as much scum as anti-town. He literally said he wasn't going to help until LUV posted.
Red is just playing recklessly, which is an easy thing to do. However, it can be risky. I think a townie is more inclined to take that risk. He also was very pro-town, his scumclaim which lead to the wagon got us out of RVS.
wagon this pls-

we arent scum together, but neither of us are newbies btwIn post 89, Inferno390 wrote:
I think that considering this is a newbie game, newbie scum are less likely to do this sort of banter.In post 48, sheepsaysmeep wrote:
what does a newbie game have to do with scumpartner voting patterns? i dont see how voting back and forth in rvs is necessarily indicative of alignment eitherIn post 23, Inferno390 wrote:F) The timing of this seems a little fishy. (Perhaps that's just me.) And Red wasn't that oblivious to his L2, was he? Could Red and Sheep be scumpartners doing a little RVS back and forth? Seems unlikely, considering this IS a Newbie game, but you never know...
it is forced. town force post sometimes, this is the response i was expecting scum to makeIn post 89, Inferno390 wrote:Why the heck would you ask me this of my own post? Of course I don't think it's forced at all, it's my post!

Also, Sunset seems to be lurking quite a bit proportionally and not very sure of herself. Just not very good or newbscum?"Do I have permission to....refute some of the bs that Inferno just spewed out?"--TywinL
