All holidays in Denmark are about eating danishes. Praise the cream :good:

Denying town the ability to interact with you for the rest of day one is just pretty counterproductive too.
So far, I don't feel like LL is certain scum but I definitely can't place him as town either, based on his anti-town behavior.
My only real reaction to this post, do you believe anti-town = scum? If not, do you think that town is more likely to do things that appear as anti-town, or scum?
I believe anti-town is NAI depending on the context. I believe hiding anti-town behavior behind frustration in this situation
could
be scum, which is why I couldn't place you as town.

In post 562, LuckyLuciano wrote:On a more serious note, this is a newbie game. I think perhaps in the future you should reconsider playing in these. Your style isn't a good introduction to mafia for brand new players. I think newbie games should be played in a manner that allows new players to understand what's going on and become acquainted with the game. Bad SE.
I mean I am giving the most obvious and exaggerated FPS possible so that newbies will have at least an inkling of a chance when they get into a normal and have to deal with actual fakeclaims.

I literally claimed a masonry with 7 people after having also already claimed a n0 cop check?

If I am town I either am:
-Trying to soft my partner as a mason without outing them entirely
-Trying to eat a nightkill

If I am scum I am obviously never, ever claiming mason

So like... what exactly is the purpose of asking me to hold to the claim or not? There can only ever be pro-town motivation to that play. If I was scum, I would just be dumping it later so it's immaterial
Lucky has a point here that he wasn't referring to her alignment at all on that fakeclaim memery, yet she insisted she was town for it.

Thanks, didn't know that.
Out of curiosity, if you were AcidPhoenix in 1812, how would you have played differently to get town to lynch Ataraxia? Acid caught him, but was unable to convince the town and eventually town lost without lynching him.
The game is not too clear in my memory right now. Is this important to you that I answer? I'll gladly skim a bit of it, but it doesn't seem immediately relevant to this game.
I'm still trying to figure out how I feel about this. I'm not quite understanding what made InWho scroll back a page and randomly pick that particular game that Monkey was in to read, and I kinda expect a player who has done as much pre-game prep as InWho claims to have done to, I dunno, look more eager? I'll take my tinfoil hat off now.

Good idea, I will return in some amount of time.
This sounds like something a messenger says to his king before spending a fortnight traveling to a far-off land in order to inquire about the status of the serf's rebellion against their liege.
And thus I spent my days, traversing the land.
Arriving at the great castle of Monke, I had just one burning question:
"LL scum?"

In post 712, LuckyLuciano wrote:
In post 226, InWho22 wrote:Alright, so: I read the game through a couple times, just keeping in mind @HEM 's concept of genuinity.
This is what I came up with: (Also this was written as post 206, none after that point considered).
Spoiler: 3bounty
There is very little to go off here, I only found 5 actual posts. During these few posts, 3bounty accomplishes:
Asking other peoples' thoughts before providing his own.
Asking 2 minor questions directed at an already targeted player.
And finally explaining his own thought on the question he asked several pages ago.
Conclusion: 3bounty hasn't really contributed anything to the game at the moment, and what he has contributed does not seem genuine in that it doesn't feel like it's
actually
meant to further the game. I do not know which of town/mafia is most likely, as I'm not sure if he's actively lurking or just caught up irl.

Spoiler: Yooh
Yooh is in somewhat the same camp of having been not-so-active. What Yooh accomplishes over 9 posts is an RVS vote, a single question at Kirari, and
5
questions for LL, the already targeted player.
Conclusion: Yooh has definitely been of more help in my eyes, but the fact that all of his questions are meant for the already popular target makes it hard for me to see him as actually trying to progress in the game.

Spoiler: Aloratom
Alora is, like the two above, not the most active player in the world. I found 11 actual posts which accomplished:
Asking LL 5 theory-related questions and doubting them because he misunderstands them.
Asking 3b a single minor question, and repeating HEM's question at LL.
And finally: providing a single actual answer and read!
Conclusion: Alora contributes to the game almost exclusively what I see as unrelated theory questions, meant to just produce
some
amount of content. Not convinced.

Spoiler: Kirari
In the 8 actual posts I found, Kirari:
Calls InWho22 (me lol) scummy twice without explanation.
Calls Holden possibly scummy without much explanation.
Explains in a single sentence why I was scummy (which did make sense, just pointing it out).
Tells Holden he doesn't like a post, and answers Yooh's questions with: non-answers!
Conclusion: This slot feels like it is lashing out at a lot of slots just because it can, and while it doesn't provide much extra information, is it actually not genuine? Kir is at a weird spot for me here, because it feels like there is actually an intent to move the game forward, just not the action to do it. Hm.

Spoiler: HoldenGolden
Now it gets a lot more interesting, as there is actually content to go on here. Holden has done a lot of good for the furthering of the game in my eyes: He has asked most players actual furthering questions, which is already more than all of the above. This seems like genuine care to obtain knowledge. Good boy!

Spoiler: HEM
HEM, like Holden, has asked a lot of game-furthering questions. I do see him tunneling a lot on LL, and it would be appreciated if he took a while focusing on other players (although someone else needs to be active then lol). He mentions this himself though, which strengthens my view of him. He wants people to contribute, and in doing so ups town's chances. Genuine and very town.

Spoiler: LuckyLuciano
As said above, LL is probably the most targeted player currently, and I do understand why. He has also been the most active player though, which mafia or not, has furthered the game. He spent a lot of time in the beginning being frustrated that Monkey didn't go with him on a single weird-and-probably-NAI whim, and has actually spent a lot of the game since getting frustrated. I do not believe though, that this 100% comes from an ungenuine position, as he seems like a player who should know that this kind of engagement doesn't get you in the peoples' favor. I wish to see some focus on any other player, and get to watch LL not just defending himself from HEM.

So my reads (ATM solely based on genuinity, and 110% subject to change):
-Town-
Holden, HEM
Yooh, Kir, LL
Alora, 3b
-Scum-
(Also I hope this was useful, first time spending so much time on a post heh)
I've read about half of this total through both my readthroughs of the game. I like it though.
Why is this? Still want feedback on how to produce such content. (After the game is cool if you want that).

When I flip town, watch out for skitt (who I think is very likely scum) and clidd (who is probably scum).
Well, considering that in one of my past games a scum also claimed VT when he was L-1 on D1 (and escaped from the lynch), I'm not townreading this claim by Aloratom.

I also believe that changing the direction of the lynch is basically collecting another claim, which means more information for the mafia to establish a PoE to hit PRs.

This is a dumb move as either alignment btw, as town your job is to not get lynched for bad reasons and you just eliminated the top reason to not hammer you

If you're going to present the person with the hammer as a counter-wagon you just die, that's why monkey's posts here are slimy af. You should have been able to recognize that.
