D1 NK'd, my last state of mind in the game was "confused". :p wondering how it would've played out with the vig alive, interesting setup.

Is it generally a good idea to take NotMaf to MyLo or LyLo? Almost feels like the moment you do, vote becomes 50-50 for a confirmed town. Feels to me like Maf would have better chances pushing a ML with more readable players and fake cases.

Optimal play with a random lolposter on either side involves lynching/killing them off before LyLo, change my mind.

If you know the player well, it might be. Also if you really don't mind losing to them if it comes to that.

The game is supposed to be FUN >> winning. Some people take it too serious, and some (myself included) don't want to lose to certain people but don't mind losing to other certain people. Do what feels right.

One more note: I'm a newb so this might be oversimplified, but Elsa Jay's defenses largely tended to take the form "Said [weird thing] randomly, did [very weird thing] because I felt like it, I do batshit crazy things as either alignment haha". Thing is, it's easy to mask scummy play within the above excuse. Players who know EJ does this often give him a free pass. (A50! :P)

Either optimal play in dealing with EJ is evaluating the benefit of each antic he executed - this would backfire if he pulls off a seemingly anti-town gambit as town.

Or treat him like Not_Maf. :P

Again, it all falls down to whether you know the player. I tend to be scum read by the majority of players playing me for the first time. I do some strange stuff, but unlike EJ I mostly do them for a reason (ex: I sometimes like to get wagoned to analyze my own wagon. I sometime act in a certain way that hints I'm a PR when I'm not to bait the NK.. etc).

I knew what you were scum. if i had pulled my claim back after you CCd then you probably would have gotten towncred and I would have still been lynched.

But you didn't know I was scum. You also had the same feeling about Clem... Who was the Bodyguard.

It's good advice
Also, what is Not_Mafia doing? This is some of the worst play I’ve ever seen.
I will SEARCH for games with you and N_M to help you policy him.
I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.

I did wanna say that I hate no one, but it's poor form to post anything after deciding to replace.
Just,
too many
people always playing to survivor wincon makes the game uninteresting to me.
I was aware of 3 at the time, but the actual number was 4. Since it was a 10p game, that's a
lot
.

There is no need to avoid me in que, I'll just out if the playerlist looks unmanageable.
I
would
like it if ya and Elsa avoided
replacing
into my ongoing games in the future, tho I do realize ya under no actual obligation to do so.

@Sash ya looked really towny this game. Ya keep improving really fast. Do avoid fastvoting in lylo, it's usually a losing move, even tho it turned out well here.
@Carmen thanks 4 taking the slot, ya were awesome while ya were here.
In post 1178, Auro wrote:Optimal play with a random lolposter on either side involves lynching/killing them off before LyLo, change my mind.
Single hard-null can be mechanically guiltied/cleared/vigged, that's what PRs are for.
If there's loads it's good to reduce the number early on/ probably good to not-lynch them in lylo since they probably townies taken there to get lynched/to rando-vote on town.
As scum, I'd probs keep them around 4 some time.
Maybe
kill them before lylo if I expect town/them to play LYLO sensibly, which is kinda rare actually.

Getting a "don't come near me" from Tic Tac seems fun. Will probably never remember to think about that warning though.
I made a GTKAS. Go shitpost in it if you want. It's very lonely.
