what good can come from guessing the four accurately?

[bozotheclown]

Really? Cause in my experience defensiveness when it's unneeded is a greater than rand chance of being scum not town. But Rumi is town.

Is this the reason you voted for Tom?

I voted for Tom because in my experience confusion this blatant about something obvious is also a greater than rand chance of being scum.

I took the thing about a N0 kill as a joke, but I did find it interesting that 2 players were willing to hammer Tom for it, so I would like to see where this goes.

##VOTE Tom Bombadil

Any chance to force the mafia to fabricate something gives town a chance to catch them. Town refusing to participate in something that requires minimal effort is just helping the mafia.

2 players?
worcej and neon?

do you find their pushes on Tom to be legitimate?

The votes seem weak yet apparently they are serious votes, so maybe Tom is being bussed.

I have a lot of wishes I could use granted right now

What wish

My WiM to be back

Someone to call me pretty and look at my selfies

Someone to cuddle me right now cause my boyfriend sucks... not really I adore him but...

Money so I can stop freaking the fuck out about money and not need to work 70 hour weeks anymore

what is WiM?

[Bonatogether]

new eu4 update, supposedly the ai is fixed, ignoring yall

The AI will never be fixed its all a lie an illusion perpetuated by the lords of the grand strategy game.

i've heard it's actually somewhat decent now

[Bonatogether]

Oh god. I didn't even notice that.

Seriously? Is this about to be a repeat of last game? Where some people get blindly defended because liking them?

I was not in the last game, so I do not understand your reference.

Sabi hard defended Neon and insisted she wasn't scum the whole game. (until they were killed). Neon's replacement turned out to be scum.

Even here, Sabi's vote for Bona feels more based in personal feelings rather than anything Bona has done all game. I mean, show me some facts and I'll throw my vote behind Bona.

Some of the votes here feel more memey than substantial, particularly the ones for Tom.

And seriously Bona, wasn't it you (or was it someone else) who told me self-voting was anti-town last game.

tl;dr Personal feelings about something outside the game or prior friendships have no place in something where facts matter. Not things like "I like them." or "the people I invited gate a d1 pass on being voted" (note: both people Sabi invited last game turned out to be scum)

i self voted cause it was funny, but i'm definitely not ending here

[Bonatogether]

U caught me bozo

What role did you choose?

ligma

(someone had to since we're missing eden _and_ chaqa)

ligma balls lmao

[Bonatogether]

wasn't expecting so many posts this early, working to catch up but not seeing a ton to comment on, atmosphere seems pretty loose which is fine

Does webdip seem more prolific with D1 posting than most other mafia sites?

so far it's been a bit hyper but also fluffy, kind of have to see if the pace keeps up

scum has been voted out day 1 in my last 5 or 6 town games, not that hard if your team plays smart.

Any takeaways from those games that you feel comfortable sharing?

there's no big secret to it really it just requires the town to be engaged with the game and actually trying to find scum (meta reads help but it's not the be all end all). i could go into a mafia theory lecture but it wouldn't be very interesting and it's late for me. just make an effort to find mafia if you're town, even if you don't succeed it sets the table for the rest of the game

what time zone are you?

I think it is detrimental to conduct a survey in a 24 hour phase where the most important facet is to get people to start evaluating others. this excercise would be better suited to begin n1. doing it now clutters thread space and gets people thinking about something intangible that doesnt have utility until 2 scum have died.

I think the survey can be used to evaluate others.

what would being right or being wrong mean wrt alignment?

Not much by itself.

[Princess Neon]

well howdy there catbae. would you describe princess neon as low hanging fruit by most standards?

they seem to have terminology down but they keep making statements like “x is greater than rand likely to be town”, and I always found such statements to be very empty platitudes anyway. hearing an inexperienced player making such statements feels like efforts to show others they can play.

I had a deeper thought here but princess neon seems very inexperienced at the game while also impressionable in how they repeat buzz phrases.

Lol...inexperienced xD

opinion ignored

[Princess Neon]

I didn’t follow last game. Your post just came across as defensive when you had no reason to be. Comes across as someone town being afraid of being wrong. Not sure there is any reason for a scumbo to make that post besides to just say things and there are ways to say things that are less attention drawing imo.

Really? Cause in my experience defensiveness when it's unneeded is a greater than rand chance of being scum not town. But Rumi is town.

Why is defensiveness a scum trait?

Defensiveness is NAI preemptive defensiveness is scummy. Preemptive defensiveness gives you an out for things you know you might do as scum. Like a scum who knows they are more likely to freeze and slank in thread as scum might for instance preempt their lack of content by exclaiming their busy schedule before anyone even asks why they are slanking.

In my experience town players largely tend to only address things like this when they are asked about it while scum tend to address it before anyone even notices.

Is this the reason you voted for Tom?

I voted for Tom because in my experience confusion this blatant about something obvious is also a greater than rand chance of being scum.

Was there no chance in your experience that Tom could be being sarcastic? would you say there was a greater than not rand chance that his joke was misunderstood?

Who knows sarcasm doesn't often come off on the internet I would know I use it all the time. Here's the thing though. It's RVS he either picks up his game and I find him as town or he doesn't my vote stays until I see something worth moving it for.

[Princess Neon]

If you are caught up, you should have seen my survey request.

I did I just don't think it's beneficial to the state of the game

Do you think it is detrimental?

Yeah actually

If I'm mafia I lie through my teeth.
