Mini Normal 2066: Catloaves [Game Over!]

[Ankamius]

I honestly don't see any way to scumread not_mafia directly

he really sounds like a player you either have to get rid of immediately or just read indirectly (such as with PoE)

funny thing I noticed though, he has an impressive amount of night 1 deaths

[nomnomnom]

tbh

I'm not seeing the scum case on him at all actually, it all looks really NAI

What???

You've been describing things you think are scum to sort Locke as scum, but the same things applied to NM are "NAI"?

[Ankamius]

one thing I will note that I believe makes him more likely to be town is the timing of his unvote of GrandWazoo

he had his vote on that slot for so long and just randomly removed it to troll with it long after he started being really threatened with death

it's a lot better than locke tiptoeing around the wagon, only to hop on and then later panic and leave when he hit L-1

have you seen any of not_mafia's other games

they look just like this regardless of alignment

you can't use a universal standard for every single player, you have to apply it to people specifically

(note how I brought up town!locke's play in another game to contrast with how he's posting here)

[rosterfoster]

But Locke does sort.

NM does not.

I’d be all for policy lynching but it’s not going to change NM’s behaviour so we really need to be focusing on catchup scum instead.

Pedit: Ninajd

[Ankamius]

n_m actually does sort, the problem is he doesn't show any of the process in the thread

[PenguinPower]

Well - if he's not even going to say who he wants to lynch today I'm not moving.

Why did you have to read NM's games when you were previously able to comment on him via your experience?

[rosterfoster]

I’m sure I’ve seen multiple occasions where NM just quickvotes in Lylo and loses (I’ve never played with him mind). So I’m not convinced he does tbh.

There was a context to all of this. Locke's reaction to GW hitting L-1 did not feel like a panic at all.

I said the same thing as him prior to him unvoting. We had a similar thought process when it came to how that wagon developed.

[Ankamius]

all my experience with him is years old, I needed to make sure it was still relevant

[nomnomnom]

If that was true he would not have been prodded three times already. He's clearly disinterested of this game. Saying otherwise is pushing it.

here you go:

It's such a bs reason to start pushing someone.

There's standard bs reasons, and there's that.

UNVOTE: GrandWazoo
Yeah, I'm not comfortable with GW at L-1 for a reason this weak, it's like the least scum-indicative thing about GW

gw still scummy, btw

but eragon reps in to a quiet game and is like, ok this works for me. doesn't sit right

Why doesn't it sit right with you? Do you have experience playing with eragon? Or is this a non-meta based feeling?

Also sorry for the lack of activity everybody, was busy finishing off DMC5 then this game kinda just slipped my mind

Well then I'm fine with helping start the Insomnia/Eragon wagon back up again, after all my read on GW is mainly based off the possibility of him being Insomnia's scum partner so why not find out whether Insomnia/Eragon is scum first

VOTE: Eragon

[Ankamius]

you know, funny thing

I think the team is exactly Locke + NM

[Ankamius]

and in the world where that is the scumteam, Locke is the better lynch because he will be harder to lynch

but I can actually see pretty compelling reasons to townread just about every other slot by now so

[rosterfoster]

I'M sure I said this before but Eragon/Locke isn't a thing so ok maybe I'm wrong about Eragon.

Shame he disappeared though.

[rosterfoster]

But that makes NM scum in both worlds lol.

[rosterfoster]

Ok

VOTE: NM

[Ankamius]

btw

Eragon had scumreads on GrandWazoo+themilkcartonkid
and was townreading every other slot but Locke

in a world where Locke + GrandWazoo are both scum, that's a... really interesting strategy for when only one of the three are under pressure

[Ankamius]

I'm disappointed

Harder to lynch by what parameters, exactly?

N_M is hindering this game's solving substantially more. And by the reasons you put forward (as in "he plays like that everygame!") I would argue that in a vacuum, lynching him is harder the longer the game goes. You said it yourself. And again, most people were opposed to N_M getting lynched day 1. That's fact.

[Ankamius]

VOTE: Not_Mafia

[rosterfoster]

So you think Eragon/Locke is liklier than Locke/NM because Eragon was being ambiguous about Locke? What about Locke towards Eragon though?

[Ankamius]

I really miss being able to charisma my way to lynches

what happened in the last half year

[Ankamius]

that's why eragon is town when locke is scum, roster.

[PenguinPower]

Jailing Locke tonight if NM flips scum btw.

If he flips town, I'm not telling you who I'm jailing.
