So I have read Capage’s ISO, and Nutella has said that his first post is scum indicative.
Hot take: It isn’t. I know someone else from the community I belong to in a game we played where he made this kind of first post, and was scumread for it but eventually turned out to be town. I have a belief that unless your first posts are containing valuable information that will help solve the game already, first posts are NAI.
I vibe with this. Putting all 5 mafia in the early group requires all mafia to be very good at not being detected. If the scum are successful in having no scum killed D1, that leaves us with a 6/5 ratio if NKs exist. That’s good for mafia, but there’s a really high chance that at least both kills are scum.
And let’s say they’re not lucky and have at least 1 scum die each day. The ratio by then would be 5/3, but then we get 5 new townies, and since 2 scum have been killed, this means at least 2 of the late arrivals are town. Which is not good for scum, since you don’t want people towncleared as scum, you want everyone to have a slight chance of a miskill.
Hey anyone, can anyone guide me through the Andres wagon? I could see a few scum-indicative posts from him, but I still need more clarification.
I don’t get the Capage wagon and neither the DKDK wagon. The latter imo is dumb because DKDK is a new player from what I know and I see nothing scummy from him/her/whatever DKDK prefers to be called.
Mmmmmmmmmm… I think you’re wrong about the general belief. I’ve been justly caught on first posts before. Someone’s opening to the game can actually be pretty valuable AI information.
This particular part of your post seems wrong to me. Those fresh townies coming in are the ones who haven’t had a chance to say or do anything to increase their town equity yet, they’re the ones that would be easier miskills. That’s good for scum, no?
I get your point. What I meant is that for every scum killed in the first 2 days, that’s +1 confirmed townie in the late arrivals. And there’s a high chance that some of these freshly confirmed townies are good players or could get towncleared pretty quickly.
