Me too, man. I've had to ask what certain acronyms and terms mean so many times this game. Can y'all like, explain what an acronym or term is the first time you use it in a sentence please? It would be very helpful!

I don't like that I have no vote down. Rest assured, by the time I'm done posting, I will.

To be honest, I'm not sure anymore. My scumreads on Fuzzy, Pops and Paragon have all weakened.

You know, I think I'm the only person in the game now that hasn't been the subject of a serious scumread and associating case against them.
I mean that no one has yet been like "Heres why eyestott is scum: yada yada yada"
It's good in that I can focus on reading people without also having to watch my back, but am I missing out on an integral part of the Mafia experience?

Anyways, hopefully I'll have a bit more clarity with my reads by the end of the night. Let's go!
It helps when you're able to let your reads develop organically and not have them forced upon you I think. By your join date, I see that you've been around this a lot longer than I have, so I'm not telling you anything that you don't already know, but I've found it varies from game to game. And it's evolved for me since I started playing at the end of last year as well. I've found that it's usually not good for me to be forced to make reads because a lot of times those turn out to be mistakes. I prefer to take things in at my own pace. For me this makes for stronger, more correct reads.

I may agree with you on Paragon I think, although I need to go through an ISO there. But his Conspire deception is going to be a big factor in my analysis. That pretty much wiped out my first two or three days of reads before I became aware of what was happening and combined with the crazy way the posting has been in this game, my interest has waned significantly. I have a Town lean on Pops, and Fuzzy a scum lean still. I just need to go back and re-read/catch-up.


Yeah, definitely. I think another aspect to it is that it's been so long since my last game that I have very little confidence in my ability to scumhunt accurately. What I mean is that if I come up with a theory no one has thought off, I write it off because why would I be the only person to think of something that's actually correct? I feel like I'm more likely to vote accurately by trying to find a townread that I can trust, listen to what they have to say ,and vote in line with them (unless I happen to come across a particularly strong scumread or significantly disagree with them).

Para. He's an asset as town and a significant threat as scum. It's best to sort him early.

I'm still unsure about you. You've been pretty open but there's a paranoia coming from somewhere that I haven't identified yet. I plan on doing a thorough review of you today.

What is the most useful thing that Para has done in this game in your opinion, Ame?
eyy finally, SOMEONE suspects me!

I guess this is less vanityish than Taly.
I've seen self-post-restricted players play better than this.
It's spooky that it was similar to a towngame but her role was special and all that.
Luca, for fun, does the logic you used in autumnal mean lynching green!pops is would be more useful than lynching red!Rhul?
I'm interested by the idea of lynching town being "correct", I think Ankamius also believes that and she's like gurd, but it is a newsletter I have not quite subscribed for ever.
I’m not entirely sure what you mean in the context of this game. I don’t think your play is similar to that game (you were obvtown for a while, but I couldn’t shake the paranoia of you). This game I haven’t seen much that suggests I should be townreading you.

Obviously if Rhul is scum then lynching her would be more beneficial than lynching Town!Pops. I don’t have a confident read on her either way, however. I’d like to think contentless slots are automatically scum, but so often I’ve seen them flip Town.

I think I would keep my memory of the small sequence of Luca posts that seemed really town indicative to me. It's not impossible for me to decide the slot is scummy later but in Autumnal Luca stopped towntelling when the posture of the gamestate stopped lending itself easily to opportunities to do so, I would want to keep those on the balance sheet.
I'd discard townreads on eyestott and Paragon that are likely to regenerate themselves.
I'm not confident enough in any of my scumreads for them to be candidates for keeping.
I mostly like this answer and the reasoning behind it.

2 scum really changes things.

Pops/Para : Luca/Para : Luca/Taly

One of these is the scum team.
Why just two scum? I realize there was a conversation about it earlier, but you sound pretty confident.

And are you basing the teams on associatives, scummy behavior or vote analysis?
Just the fact that I can't form a 3 person team. This is a post I was working on before but canceled once I realized none of the pairings worked:

I'm getting pretty close to the solve here. It's within pops, Luca, Para, Taly, Fuzzy.

Fuzzy =/= Taly , (also town indicative for Taly)
Hmm I thought before that pop v taly looked bussy but reviewing and I don't think so. pops =/= Taly
Para =/ Taly bottom of .
So Taly is town
.

pops, Luca, Para, Fuzzy.

Luca =/= Fuzzy
Fuzzy =/= Para , , , .
So Fuzzy is town.


pops, Luca, Para

Verifying...

Error pops =/ Luca based on the discussion regarding Rabid, especially and

Solve broken. Back to the drawing board.

It means the opposite. There I was concerned with being town read. Here I am not. Taly recognized this. And it feels like you're deliberately avoiding that conclusion.
I disagree with the conclusion, but the reasoning here and the attempt to solve feels quite townie to me.

Towniest
Taly

eyestott
- I liked the point Taly made of a slot being too townread is bad, but I think it is fine with consideration to why they are so heavily townread.
Wiisp
- I just find myself liking his posts despite not always agreeing with it. I also see him as scum being more proactive right now. Like I don't see post 717 as scum since his position is something rather easy for mafia to utilize effectively to gain an advantage later.
Aloratom
- There was something they did that make me think "I suppose that makes up for there scummy early days. I should put them up here." Now that I'm filling in reasons I have no recollection of what that was.
Ame
- Has a very townie tone, especially now when the awkward phrasing Luca pointed out is clearly how they always talk. I would need to look at some meta before I would be willing to move them higher, though I don't see the need right now.
Taco
- When he is here the tone of his posts are slightly townie.
Luca Blight
- Whenever he says my name I get uncomfortable. I am now jotting that to paranoia of him forcing a hang on me again. I'm finding him slightly townie now because he isn't as aggressive as he I recall being in his scum game with me.
TheFuzzylogic99
- I don't have much to read off of other than most of the other people I scumread have been pushing him, so it doesn't really make sense for him to be scum. I would reconsider if someone else flips counter to what I was expecting.
Yshtola Rhul
- I can understand what they're saying but I've got no clue how to determine alignment out of it. They fit best here.
popsofctown
- This is primarily from what others are saying ngl.
Paragon
- My play style as scum is matching up with how he's playing. More specifically the reason why some things I do as scum but not as town are the things I'm nothing him doing. In addition as said earlier I really dislike his Taly attack.
Scummiest

I'll explain Tali read tomorrow with longer explanation than this stuff. I'm gonna sleep now.
I might have forgotten about something someone @'d at me.

This reads more like scum trying to emulate !town humor than it reads like town humor. It seems kind of off. Like, if I read it with the presumption Taly is scum, it is funny, and if I read it with the presumption Tally is town, it reads unfunny, and I kind of wouldn't expect town!Tally to post something like that? Most jokes are for ourselves to laugh at, after all. At least, with as few laughs as I get from others trying, they had better be.
Yeah... I see the point you're trying to make, but I don't agree with it.

IDK about Paragon, but like he is super consistent post-wise, and if he is a wolf Idk if he can keep it up
but he doesnt feel like he is playing to hide the fact that he is a wolf
thought I do wish he didnt do that claim thing cause I have no idea how to read it

Ame should not be below me, like ever, seeing her as anything but almost top town is questionable

is Rhul just lower because people are voting them?

Talk to me about Alora's scummy early days, and idk how that now translate to being above Ame

Personally I don't care why Taly is your top town, I care about you expanding on your wolf reads, and slightly obscure town reads

VOTE: NDMath
I think this is a good vote based on #1106
do you consider urself a weak town player? if not I cant really fathom this disconnect between where I think your reads should be, and where they are at, coming from a town player

That’s reads list seems fake to me.

Tom being that high in the list without remembering why you TR him doesn’t make sense.

Your Fuzzy reasoning is bad. Your read on him shouldn’t be entirely based on who has pushed him, especially when his wagon has amounted to nothing.

I can kind of get your Wiisp point, but the ease at which you arrived at it seems like TMI.

Your Paragon SR is vague. What was scummy about his Taly push? It feels as though you’re buddying Taly tbh.

I’m not buying your paranoia of me. I don’t feel it’s justified/natural based on the posts I’ve made about you.

Math’s reads haven’t really developed since his first post, with the exception of his Tom read which is following the common trend. In general he is budding Taly and mirroring his stances in virtually every aspect.

His comments regarding Paragon seem really scummy to me.

As a serious response, I think the post is NAI (not alignment indicative) and that you should not scumread people for annoying you which is probably going to be something that's gonna keep happening to you whether you like it or not.
When I asked her main account in another game she also converted the in-game question to a roleplay question and told me about how she's a mi'quote and not a Viera and apologized that miqote's aren't as beautiful as Viera or something. She probably would have posted that same thing if she rolled town, scum, or unlyncher.

also
yshtola
do me a favor and actually provide reads, it can't be that much of a stretch, if you somehow need help forming them after 45 pages then you have to hold my hand and point out how to help you. I can't rationalize how you can be town until you do.

There's literally people who have been scumreading each other consistently this dayphase who collectively agree that your posting lacks a severe level of substance and I've seen enough of your answers to my questions to where it's boring to dismiss them as non-malicious. Inaction is a scum tool.

throwing up preflip associatives on the most active people in the thread is really not settling with me, especially as she didn't seem to evaluate my response to the importance of town cohesion but w/e :roll:

Pops/Taly/Ame/Paragon/Luca
or someone who is universally townread which is definitely NOT this group of people
, but that leads to a discussion of another atrocious preflip associative that all the main posters - including myself - have all surmised in the past several pages.

Namely, if
Wiisp
were scum within the active players he said were town, it makes 0 sense for almost all the active posters to have a weak read on him as stated. If
wiisp
flips scum at any point, all the mentioned posters to have 0-1 scum within them are up for suspicion - but this reality doesn't align with the narrative that
wiisp
has a partner in that group.

Tom being that high in the list without remembering why you TR him doesn’t make sense.

Your Fuzzy reasoning is bad. Your read on him shouldn’t be entirely based on who has pushed him, especially when his wagon has amounted to nothing.

I can kind of get your Wiisp point, but the ease at which you arrived at it seems like TMI.

Your Paragon SR is vague. What was scummy about his Taly push? It feels as though you’re buddying Taly tbh.

I’m not buying your paranoia of me. I don’t feel it’s justified/natural based on the posts I’ve made about you.

VOTE: Math
I really have a hard time trying to vibe with your pushes because they consist of finding error in most people's reads. You spend so much time finding error in someone's whole world of reads but you're not evaluating what specifically is scum-indicative about them.

Honestly, I'm pretty aware that
Math
could be buddying me since his entry post and I'm just so incredibly unbothered by it. :igmeou: Give me some credit.

What's odd to me is that you immediately go on the offensive before someone defines their strongest reads. It reads like you're finding things to discredit preemptively without voicing why.

Kind of the same way you inquire about what's scummy about
Paragon's
push onto me.
Is
Paragon's
push onto me scummy or towny? What was my push on him to you?
I haven't seen you verify your thoughts here, but I wonder if you're assuming
Math
should come to this conclusion, or if you're actually trying to figure this out yourself.

I have to agree with a few others on NDMath and say that that is an odd reads list post. I say it like that intentionally. Some of the reads are odd. But the post itself is odd -- not in line with what we've seen from NDMath thus far.

I think the readslist is scummy for the way the reads are explained, not for the order of the names in the list, especially because I don't feel like I have this game solved
"Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"
"Well, I..."
"What? Nothing? You would make the prince suffer over... nothing?"

That’s a nice generalization based on one post that I’ve just made and am still in the process of following up on.

I don’t care if you notice Math’s buddying or not; it pertains to my read on him, not you. Although it’s weird how little stock you give it. The timing and intensity of your defence is interesting, however, given you haven’t yet caught up on many of the previous pages.

If Math is able to define his strongest reads in a more satisfactory way I may change my vote, but such definitions haven’t been forthcoming.

I’ve already said Paragon’s Taly push was townie.

idk i kind of lost caring much about how my posts are received since the past 10-15 pages have been "taly is fake, i dont trust taly, someone's pushes > taly's"

so im wanting to see more detail in
Math's
readslist but it's still more detailed than most of the playerlists' latest readslist and im kind of past the point of just asking about people's posts to get a handle on them.

p-edit

I'm reserving judgment on
Math's
"supposed buddying"
until he actually explains the read.

My defense of
Math's
post is partially due to most of the people on the same page saying he's scum for it immediately.

It pinged my
"this isn't a town-only push"
button hard.

And I'm pretty caught up on this game
Luca
. I just haven't sat down and reevaluated everything just yet and I don't think people are helping me much here.

Completely fine with you voting based on definitions and not stances and waiting for a response further. That wasn't clear when I read , and that reassures me a little that you're coming from a town perspective.

And what was my push of
Paragon
like,
Luca
? You might want to jog my memory and explain if you said something because I don't think you've brought the thought directly to me.

I really enjoy you, I think I might be tunneling you and I'm trying to break free of that train of thought and I'm having difficulty rationalizing a townread on you.

This isn't personal. I hope you're not genuinely upset with me over the mafia game.

Taly on a scale from 0 to 297, where 0 is "if I focus I will realize pops is town" and 297 is "I'm probably going to mislynch her some point this game even if she's town, there seems to be no way to view other perspectives", how much of +99 HP +99 ATK and +99 RCV would you have each?
"Let us say that you are right and there are two worlds. How much, then, is this 'other world' worth to you? What do you have there that you do not have here? Money? Power? Something worth causing the prince so much pain for?'"
"Well, I..."
