Perfect Masquerade [Game Over]

[Gentleman 7]

So can you explain? What makes you think that 9 people in this game scumread me/L5 enough to speedlynch us?

I like you, but for me, L5 is probably one of the first people I'd lynch, although there's probably going to be a pair of 2 people who I find individually suspicious.

[Gentleman 4]

For the record G4, I disagree with L6; I don't think you're being anti-town right now.

Like I said before, communication is hard. One of the supreme goals of town in a mafia game is to be able to understand how each other are thinking.

And tbh, getting questioned about my thoughts will frequently lead me to get them more in order myself. Same principle as how you don't really understand something unless you can teach it to someone else.

I appreciate and agree with both of these posts.

G3 not asking anyone even though he's been around a lot feels weird. I don't like his I don't want to drag anyone down, can we make it to endgame really.

I worry that he's waiting to see if his partner is townread enough for a scum-scum pairing that will make them super strong scum pairing that they'll win in that end game stand off.

I mean the point of this game is to pair confident townreads with each other, so like, I only want to pair with someone I confidently townread if people also confidently townread me. It's common sense if you think ahead, but most people just aren't.

I was kind of back and forth on G3 in my head, up until this point. This feels like the same kind of thing I was thinking.

Also, from what I've seen in the first post, there's been a few more pairings made. L7, I'm kind of in favor of you being with G3. Although if you consider me to be more towny, then I'd be up to dance.

Lady 1's activity (or absence thereof) caused you to lose interest in her?

[Gentleman 3]

What, exactly, would you like me to offer? I'm not reading 60 pages of nonsense pregame.

It's not pregame...

[Gentleman 5]

That is to say I would like to hear much more from Gentleman 8, and I, too, will be severely disappointed if this is all he has to offer today.

Why pick L7

I think very little of the 60 pages is nonsense, and arguably none of it is pregame.

Would you provide amplifying information on the bolded, please?

[Gentleman 7]

I'm not really against you pairing with L9, but I would prefer G6 right now, because both of them feel very town-solvy to me, and it would make the scum have to choose between killing that pair and killing you and your partner--essentially I feel like L9's a bit too strong to pair with you. I'm not really against it, but I kind of want to do like IC with 2nd most townread lady, and most townread lady to go with 2nd most townread gentleman.

I was actually wanting for you to be with L5 initially, but her recent posts are making me reconsider. If I think she's town, I'll be in favour of that pairing, though.

Gentleman 7, this implies you were in favor of Lady 5 earlier, what did you see there that made you think she was town, and what made you doubt that she could be town?

What do you think of her now?

I kind of felt like she was being too scumread relative to what she'd posted initially, where she was being suspected for small things like her posting style. It felt like it was someone who would be a bit of a safer target. I didn't really like her afterwards, because I've found her to be opaque and not really open to explaining things.

I'm not really a fan now because she doesn't really feel like she's engaging people directly.

[Gentleman 7]

Hello again, good citizens!

The volume of communication here is simply staggering, and I struggle to keep up, particularly while wearing this excellent and most efficacious mask, which, while handsome, leaves much to be desired for eye-holes.

I am entirely flexible with regard to a partner. I find most of the judgments discussed here premature. Either I am paired with a good and talented dancer, in which case I shall be delighted to waltz the night away, or I shall be paired with one who steps on toes and uses the wrong fork at dinner. In the latter case, I will be delighted to do the company a service and leave the dance with her. To wit, based on Gentleman 4's list,

Lady Lucky #7, will you dance with me?

I dont like this

^Indeed. Gentleman 8, could you like...tell me an opinion of yours? Any opinion will help at this point.

What I mean is that people who have lower town-equity are going to be more or less forced into pairing with people with low town-equity.

So there might be a pair of 2 people that I'm lightly scumreading (let's say L1 and G8), which I think is more likely to result in getting at least 1 scum killed compared to lynching G3 and L5 first.

If you didn't read, how did you propose to L7? How would you have known to?

[Gentleman 7]

Okay, all caught up now. If I missed a question for me, please let me know. I know I'm going to have to re-read through this at some point later in the game, but I'm not about to do it twice in a row.

I'll look at L2 later tonight, though I want to hear L7's opinions. I'm in favor of her partnering with either me or L3.

Well, follow the implication of if he's scum to it's conclusion. Why L7 over L5 L6 (me) or L1?

I am a firm believer L1 should sit based on this.
L5 is the easy mislynch in this setup.
Then picking between L6 and me, L7 is further from being correct.

This game is actually remarkably on topic and content heavy. They're worth reading, and I dont say that lightly.

G7/L2 seems like a natural fit to me.

[Lady 5]

Looks like L5 isn't townread enough for that pairing to work.

I'm gonna take a shower and then reread L2 and L6 and ask one or both of them.

Wait what?

[Gentleman 3]

You aren't townread enough for me/you to work out. I think it's pretty clear.

[Lady 5]

What’s everyone’s Reads on me exactly?

[Lady 5]

You aren't townread enough for me/you to work out. I think it's pretty clear.

Why am I so not townread? I really don’t understand that.

[Lady 5]

If anything I’m Null.
If I’m scummy, explain why.

I was trying to catch him in the act.

He said nothings worth reading and yet he follows G4s instruction.

Yet who is G4? He doesnt know if G4 is town or scum? Why is he following him if he hasnt read? For all he knows, G4 is setting up lynches.

Also if he hasnt read yet, what if he scumreads L7 and wants her left out? Why propose blindly like he has?

[Lady 5]

If I was scum I would have instantly accepted Gent 5’s proposal. Did you think of that?

LOL. FUCKING LOL.

But yeah, youre null,

Wifom.

Pretty sure theres a number of reasons as either alignment to instantly accept and/or wait.
