Hope we can be same allignment in another game!
im used to getting pushed on in general so I can usually tell when its a scum/town motivated push. you are one of the few who have fooled me with a genuine alignment telling push this game was kinda my peak since i got to show off my skills at roleswapping!

Koba, I gotta say, you were not the player I had a great amount of fun playing with overall, but damn did you pull that shit off amazingly!
There was a point where I legitimately almost replaced out because I did not think I could play with you, but you do have some very impressive talents and I am glad I gave you a chance! I was blown away by the role swapping this game. It was actually insane!

I am very pleased with how it all worked out. The biggest assumption I had to make was that both Cats and DkKoba would see what I was doing and play along, but I had few doubts they would. I would also happily play with DkKoba again.

LOL my whole plan on D1 was to get a roleswap with the FN. i softed it like 10000 times.
and idk how to put this but you have to be willing to take pressure in a mafia game. this game was me toned down. I tend to be much shitter towards ppl who bad faith push me and i just have 0 patience for that shit and i will grill them into the ground but I'm generally here to play a game and win and not really to be extra nice.
I'm just happy I had a 2/3 solve by the end. Feel bad for janko, couldn't stop his miselim twice in a row.

second sentence was for u ari btw.
and tn/marquis, maybe consider you were extremely toxic the way you played even if as scum since clearly you were 2 both upset with me and took out that frustration on me. I'm always perfectly willing to be civil and do it the questioning way instead of resorting to emotion but when push comes to shove im going to call you an ass when you're being an ass. as soon as tn did their little gambit i knew one of my reads was wrong which was why i switched to marquis on d2 lmfao. i was more afraid of getting scumread by paladin tho and him getting NKed instaed of me so i was passive af. always a mistake.

btw cats' and I's PT is open now, it was actually pretty long because I spammed it too to vent thoughts and used it as a notes PT. I didn't even let cats avoid pressure and honestly if a skilled player carefully read our interactions in thread it woulda been obv we were neighbors LOL

I understand and respect that style I suppose, but it is not something I am generally down for?
On the plus side, even as scum I rarely make bad-faith pushes so that's a blessing in my direction
Uhmmm, sorry for a) supporting a bad scum agenda in D1 and b) being unreceptive towards you.
I'm happy with how all of this played out though and I'm glad I was read properly and made the read properly in the end.
I'd like to see you in a different environment tbh, maybe we will play again.

what was the scum agenda? I think I of anyone should be listened to after assisting in a successful roleswap that led to TWO unclear slots getting NKed and granting us a 2/3 POE after a D1 scum power hanging.

ok sorry that was a bit ego filled but I believed I played optimally for town in my position esp the strategies i chose to employ.

used to play* but on epicmafia. cursed site. but teaches you some good mafia skills through repetition of many games. most ~heated~ games will last at most an hour. (the notorious half hour 3 way into scum AtEing a win. love those)

the playstyle meta is generally a lot more toxic and emotion based. but there are players, notably staypositivefriend, who is in the mafia universe championships(and successfully helped get 2 town sweeps in a row which has never happened in that) who use analytical play that is more common in forum play in chat mafia to great success.
meta is more important since you can have 100s of games with someone and understand their play in multiple situations.
pr hunting is common. town roleswaps with PR fairly often. the big weakness is that people tend to play "follow the clear".
overall I think there's much to learn from the enviroment but also a lot to UNlearn which i've learned here xD

Tammy, were you trying to crumb to me that DkKoba was your partner? Because that is what I gathered here. Especially with the context of the posts immediately before and after this in your ISO.
I thought nothing of DkKoba's first post crumb until their in-thread interactions essentially confirmed this pairing to me, then I figured it had to have been an intentionally obvious crumb.

I accidentally did all my scumhunting of Cats within the hood and forgot to do it in the thread and then it came off as half assed.
