I mean, if he’s being all secretive about how I’m scum, then I might as well stop playing on this site as I won’t be able to improve and since being taken advantage of is not fun for anyone, yeah.
I don’t want to put words in his mouth and I’ll let him explain. All I know is that he singled you out with enough confidence to shoot you night 1 at the risk of both him and me dying if he was wrong.
there was a decent reason to not shoot all but like 3 people in the game and you were more likely mafia regardless of seth’s alignment.
Sui play was best shot
But I think it should have been considered a bit more hey why would they do this lol
given that I’ve lost a few games on site recently it’s increasingly clear to me that the easiest way for mafia to win is to try and get cleared early.
which is easier said than done but still.
Guess we were fucked so if you operate under that pretense it’s not even a gamble
huh why
isn’t 6v2 with a confirmed and a semi confirmed still better than 5v1
Ignore that. I did say I didn’t trust you too yes? My read of you was more derived from what appeared to be warring factions if you will, and there were a few people I trusted on the other side. Prism for example was clearly Town. That didn’t help you.
I had the luxury of having doggo as literal confirmed town too to inform various interactions/better the probability of shit.
I will say that of all the townies, key had me majorly sketched out for a long time until near the end of day 2, and even then my fears weren’t completely gone. Kudos to Elli for his reads.
Chess, earlier in the thread you made a comment about why I was more sure of myself this game than usual. It’s because I was town confirmed to someone and had no real fear of being lynched, and it was nice to hear more from elli in a backdoor convo than wut you’d ever get from him in an open thread.
I live with key. I know she didn’t have enough time or energy to deal with the stress of randomly fakeclaiming d2 lol.

I didn’t know you actually lived with her @_@ is this something new over the last 6 months?
but yeah @JakeTheWolfie I don’t have explicit advice. Last few times I fucked up big time was misreading things as town “slips” when they weren’t, but in the absence of those poe is pretty broken because most people are like differential some percent of the time when they’re town, some smaller percent of the time when they’re scum, and not differential as either most of the time. But the first case happens enough of the time that mafia is haard.
uh, the permanent arrangement started around half an year ago yeah.

ye jake, I think fighting with prism who just acted townier than you prolly hurt you a bit. not sure what elli is meaning by differentials, but andres’s explanation makes sense to me. Regardless if you were found out, I think it was still fun playing with you, you made day 1 a lot more exciting 
(sorry for saying you were obv, that prolly wasn’t entirely fair or accurate though, my bad x.x)
most of the time people aren’t alignment distinguishable as either alignment but the times they are tend to be weighted towards obviously town since that’s “playing well” vs. “fucking up” (being obviously scum).
biggest thing that confuses me is why scum chose 2 goats?
So we could’ve used the fishes ability and just pass it between the two goats.
I don’t think mitigating scales should have been such a high priority.
