Thanks for the extremely contributional obligatory 24 hour posts Cypher and Eagle.
At least randvote for someone!
I wanted to make it clear to them that one post every 24 hours wouldn't cut it. I would have voted for one of them but my vote was already on TPM who hadn't posted yet.
If someone hammers this vote before deadline (or at least before Da Letter El might have a chance to get on) you will be cast under SERIOUS suspicion next day, so DON'T HAMMER. In other news, I anxiously await jalmont's post or sub out.
I wanted to make sure that Da Letter El was able to post his reads (which I thought would be more helpful...) I had been wanting Dale contribute more the entire day, so I don't really understand why you grouped this post in with the others as evidence against me...
shinyskarmory what do you suggest then? Waiting until we're at MYLO of LYLO before we start lynching people? In that case we lose if we mislynch and since we wouldn't have any information on anyone's voting patterns because we no lynched everytime we'd be taking a shot in the dark.
Unvote LightWolf
Vote shinyskarmory
All I did here was point out his faulty logic and vote for him because of it, so I don't know what your problem is with this post either.
My main goal on Day 1 is to force people into sharing their opinions and make sure no inactives slip under the radar (seriously go check any other NOC game I've played in) which was why I wanted a wagon on Jalmont so he would actually contribute. Just because YOU played a game as mafia where YOU used a strategy that I seem to be emulating doesn't mean that I would act the same way as mafia. That's exactly like me saying "Askaninjask is acting like billymills did in a previous game where billy was village, so aska MUST be village!" That logic is flawed because I'm comparing you to someone else, and obviously you both have different playstyles. I have no problem with you accusing me of being noncontributional (which I don't think is true but w/e) but don't justify your read with a strategy YOU used before.
@spiffy: only a couple posts fell into the irrelevant category, but those were: previous NOC games, no-lynch, and troll-posts.
Previous NOC games are an excellent way to analyze what players have done in the past. For instance, you can compare how someone is playing in this game to how they have played as mafia or village in another game and see if there are any similarities. I used past games as evidence to prove a point to the people that thought that trollposting and being inactive was no indicator of alignment, which is not always the case.
I acknowleged in a later post that the no lynch discussion was getting us nowhere, I admit I made a mistake in focusing on that too much.
I only made one troll post which was in response to Jalmont's troll post because I was getting frustrated with him and frankly everyone else for ignoring his intentional lack of contribution.
Fair enough Empoof, however I will only post who I think is most scummy because if everyone reveals the same person as a surefire village read, that will give the mafia an easy target.
Everytime I feel someone suspicious I say it. I like keeping any town reads I have to myself, unless of course that person it being lynched. There's no need for villagers to share their strong town reads; It just gives the mafia a good target for a nightkill. This is why whenever I question someone I only ask them their thoughts about players who I think could be mafia or just simply ask them who they think could be mafia.
I have to reread the thread and pay more attention to the newer players and see how I feel about them.
I always pay more attention to players that have played before because I already know how they act and I find it easier to get reads on them because of that. For some reason I always get a default "noob town" read on players that I'm not familiar with (like More Cowbell, TPM, and Metal Sonic), so I want to reread the thread before I share my thoughts about them.
Now that LightWolf has explained his reasoning and taking into account his previous reputation for being overly cautious all the time, I can see him having this opinion and still being aligned with the village. However I still don't think that his course of action is the best because of what zorbees said (We need to lynch to see voting patterns).
I did give my read on LightWolf, and it hasn't changed. I guess you missed that? That reminds me:
Sentry LightWolf. Mafia is not going to kill Walrein (who I think is mafia anyway) when there are bigger names still around.
Basically, if you don't hear anything from me about a certain user, I think they're town.
I completely agree with everything aska just said about Spiffy. I was already gonna say something about Spiffy's playstyle being off from what it usually is, and then aska perfectly summarized what's been nagging at me.
How exactly is my playstyle different from how it usually is? Aska never addresses anything about my previous playing style so I don't really know how his post summarizes your thoughts.
I find that Spiffy is a Mafia member. He is responding badly to pressure, and also doesn't post any real analysis for himself; only pressing others to post. They have posted
I haven't had any pressure until today, and I have never responded to it until now. So I don't know what responses to pressure you're referring to. I have addressed your second point in this post already. And I don't think you completed your thought, so I can't really respond to that last sentence. x_x
Since everyone claims I don't do my part regarding posting reads, my top scum reads are:
zorbees - I already explained why I think he is mafia in a recent post. This read is supported by his weird logic against me in the post that I quoted already.
Walrein - I also explained my reasoning for this read earlier this day.
I need to reread the thread to establish more concrete reads on the newer players.
