Could I ask what LIV means please? I don't see it anywhere in the wiki.
If you believe the jokey posts are NAI, can't you just disregard them?

Woah, I am on a roll of PageTops here. I think I read on the wiki somewhere that consistent PageToppers are 11% more likely to be town.
This statistic is incorrect however, since I am a Survivor this game. Silly wiki.

What I think you may find interesting is that there was this old statistic/graphic that "scum tend to post less" in general, so the likelyhood of pagetopping is less.

I've been wrecked by exceptions before, so it doesn't really help you in my book. Everyone's got an equal chance of being scum here. Except maybe gamma.

"Miller survivor" is not often normal game material.

Some people (myself included) believe the RVS stage is never truly random and you always pick someone for some reason, so it's a "low information vote stage"

I think it's a minority opinion

that's a new development.

RVS is just a moment where you can pick on your townie familiars before y'all double down.

I was reading through Mastin's Insane Tells in the wiki and apparently a lot of these statistics and guides become obsolete once people actually start reading them and playing against the tells.

Huh, thought I had the right number there. Sorry about that. I hope this makes up for it.

"If Profii claimed Vanilla Townie when I was mafia I'd concede. If Profii claimed Cop then I'd jump into my bunker and wouldn't resurface for fourty years."

"I once had a dream where Profii was on a different team to me, then I woke up and realized my win rate had been cut in half."

"If the mafia don't kill Profii night one we might as well concede. He'd be confirmed as mafia, but even though it's happened a dozen times so far he's still convinced me it'd be better to selfvote every time!

"It's a good thing nobody else understands how Profii solves games so easily or the fundamental principles of mafia would collapse."

"Whenever I mod a game I could just put Profii in charge of modkills. The way he plays it's never changed the result."

"Honestly Profii shutting his eyes and flinging darts at the playerlist is actually still the best scumhunting technique I've ever seen."

"I always selfvote in lylo if Profii is there. It's more likely that I misread my role pm than that he's mafia."]

"I'd love to wear Profii's skin but I'd just feel so guilty about halving town win rates like that."

"I only beat Profii in a game of mafia and... hey stop laughing."

"I always tell my partners not to kill Profii night one. Obviously everyone wants to kill that kind of play and it takes a while to convince them that no matter what the mod tries they just can't stop Profii reviving three days later."
There's no reaching. I've become enlightened.

Hmm, there's probably a statistic for scum being more/less likely to pick their buddies during RVS, but I couldn't find anything like that on the wiki unfortunately.
We could start gaining info for that now if you like? What alignment are you and was your RVS your scum buddy?

Some people are God meta manipulators and following what you know can be a weakness for them to exploit. They take no prisoners.

So I'm still reading through Mastin's Guide for Scumhunting, and Rick's behaviour this game fits perfectly into "riding the wave" scum archetype she describes.

Mastina’s one of the people who’ve misread me in the majority of games I’ve played against her.

She scum read me in most of my town games, and then town read me as VI town when I was scum bussing a buddy whom she also thought of as town.
