Also, according to my calculations, there are 28 possible scum pairs in this game if I count myself as town.

And what value does this latter calculation provide you? What is the value of outing it?

HEAL: pooky
His 'brutal honesty' about my ability to play scum reminds me of when we fought last game.

HEAL: deimos

You seem like a concerned townie. The calculation up there doesn't provide any value except for 'making me readable' to soul readers. I'm trying to show you guys my state of mind as a townie... I calculated it yesterday as a townie. It's borderline useless information..... but it is the truth.

pedit deimos is my strongest town read atm

[Deimos27]

So he was scum in the game you played? What he do that constituted "telling" you his alignment?

[SleeperSoul]

pooky was town

real recognizes real


it's hard to explain

[Deimos27]

Sorry, 177 was directed to Pooky. I rarely do p-edits.

[SleeperSoul]

we were both town

[SleeperSoul]

I've never played scum in forum mafia.

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

he's a stream of consciousness poster who is also a noob, he kind of just blurts out whatever he's thinking and most noob scum tend to be more lurky - I'd expect his post count to be lower if he was scum but the fact that he's just randomly spamming whatever random thoughts pop into his head at this point feels to me to be TI.

You call it showing your state of mind. I call it random LAMIST IIoA.
But ok, I recognize that some players can have this kind of 0 filter townmeta, so I'll wait on the meta argument and take a look myself later when I have motivation.

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

if Sleepersoul was scum this is what he would look like:

[Deimos27]

Sleeper, what's your mafia experience?

[bugspray]

why the fuck did i /in to a game thats all about talking to each other i wanna fucking do setup analysis
can someone tell me who scum is so i can coialitioon

[Tuxedo Mask]

The coalition is over Bug, it's day 2. We're catching scum now.

[Deimos27]

Location checks out

[SleeperSoul]

This is my third forum game.

[redacted]

I played some IRL avalon with friends in high school who are used to my shenanigans and trust my intuition highly.

HEAL: Pooky
HEAL: votato
HURT: Sleeper
HURT: Clover
Here's where I'm at.

these are my reads which makes me skeptical

[Tuxedo Mask]

@Votato, is the thing you want Sleeper to do to prove they're town sheeping you?

[Tuxedo Mask]

I don't have a town read of Pooky, they said in Lovers that they post way less as scum. And while they're posting more than many others in this game, they are posting way less than themselves. They are also being way less confrontational.

Mafia is what is known as a

social deduction

game, which is based on talking with people.

[Deimos27]

Ok, I buy 182. I do want to be

very

careful about calling activity town-AI in a setup that incentivises scum activity/towntelling, but I think the fact that Sleeper actually has 0 experience with scum more than compensates for that, and his spamming + lack of self-awareness is more likely towny than not.

[Deimos27]

HEAL: Sleeper
I still intend to look at that meta though

[Deimos27]

Oh right, and HEAL: Deimos.

Yep, lack of self-awareness... that's me!

[SleeperSoul]

If town needs me to stop spamming just remind me and I'll take a break.

Game's been up for what, 10 hours? And he has 33 posts. I don't know how much he usually posts, but that looks pretty solid to me.
What do you mean by being less confrontational?
