Newbie 2019 | Game Over!

[SJReaver]

We might be hitting night 1 soon, and I'm not sure I'll live through it.

If I don't, I enjoyed the brief time I had playing with you guys.

[Porkens]

Eh, since there is no claim to be had I can wait a bit.

VOTE: unvote

Let’s squeeze reactions out as much as we can.

I like it. I learned that last game when scum self hammered and ruined the chance of further discussion.

[Porkens]

I’m just becoming really fond of flower gal

[GeniusGamer]

Well, if I die tonight, I’d also like to say that it was fun to play. But I do agree with Porkens about prolonging discussion.

[SJReaver]

In regards to the town mason thing:

- I've been reading this thread for a bit and got my feelings/reactions before I joined. My original write up had GG as the main suspect and I was likely to vote him to see how he handled the pressure.
- The lack of interactions between Town Masons makes more sense when you see the Mason thread, because GG was attempting to constantly prod noob for thoughts and conversation, but was left dangling for most of the game.
- when I hopped into the thread, GG was at zero votes, and most people read me as having a town vibe. I was more interested in interacting with people who I was unsure of and didn't want to buddy up with him too quickly.

I was not prepared to log in and find him on the choping block.

Awww, you'd miss me.

[MiniMegabyte]

Well I just jumped in the site and see I have like 5 pages to catch up on...

[MiniMegabyte]

UNVOTE: GeniusGamer

[MiniMegabyte]

I’ll have to post a bit note later as I’m not home right now but being a town I don’t want my vote left on another townie

[word321]

[word321]

[Redados]

We're at E-1! I feel like with time zones we should hopefully see a response from Shelly within the next ten hours or so.

If this is mafia-play, I can respect it.

If Shelly is red and you are red, she's probably past the point you could help her. Voting against her gives you a talking point in your favor tomorrow. And who knows, you might be able to turn it around.

If Shelly is green and you are red, a miseliminate causes people to reevaluate the proceedings and gives you one last townie to deal with. Voting yourself also means that the actual second mafia member isn't in the line of fire when people review the vote count.

"and there is a small detail, but hers was the only slot that didnt immediatly vote on gg"

I'm worried that GeniusGamer is ropebait. In Town of Salem, I was almost always eliminated early, no matter what side I was on, and it sucks.

If anyone is up to it, maybe give GG some tips on how to feel more townie?

[Porkens]

Be more aggressive

[SJReaver]

We should!

Shelly, if you're reading this, I want you to know it's all good. I did a happy dance when I thought I'd uncovered your scumminess, but that's just because I get excited about these things.

Being redteam is hard. It can be stressful and unfun to feel like you have to examine everything you say or people are going to attack you. But being caught doesn't mean you're a bad player. You have seven people combing through everything you say over a week: it is not easy to make it through that.

Think of it as a trial by fire. It rough but it makes you a better player in the long run.

May not mean much coming from me, but interact with the entire playerlist. It really goes a long way. That’s what I’ve found.

[ItalianoVD]

What does ropebait mean?

[SJReaver]

What does ropebait mean?

Passive:

A person who comes off as suspicious whatever their alignment and who tends to be mis-eliminated on a frequent basis.

Active:

A townie being set-up by mafia for a mis-elimination.

It seems to be a combination of personality, playstyle, or culture acclimation.

[shellyc]

Wow I'm at E-1 all so suddenly. Also I just read the mason claim.UNVOTE: GeniusGamer
I am a

Vanilla Townie

and I don't know where this vote came from.
Suddenly Genius roleclaims and I'm voted because of PoE? Now Italiano starts this bandwagon ALL OF A SUDDEN.
I dont understand this universal townread on SJR. He replaced in, and just gets TR by everyone.
Also I feel like Redados could be a vote here

[shellyc]

Alright so with these new events in mind. I can assume:

Town:
Genius
SJReaver
Myself
Porkens
TBone
Mini
Red

That leaves Shelly and Word (Micc) as scum

This list? how can you be sure that almost all are town at d1

[Redados]

Hi Shelly! Feel free to take a few hours to catch up and respond, a lot has happened

[Redados]

Town:
Genius

Mini

We're pretty sure GeniusGamer and SJReaver are town here. If they are mafia then they will autolose. They're practically cleared.

[shellyc]

Here's my readlist:

Town:
SJReaver
GeniusGamer
ItalianoVD

Null:
Porkens
T-Bone
Hat Guy

Scum and/or Confused Townie:
ShellyC
MiniMegabyte

I would prefer to vote for Shelly or Mini today. Mini less likely to be scum than Shelly imo

Ok so I'm universal scum, after your universal town death tunnels me. amazing play guys, this futile attempt to get me mislynched seriously gained traction.

[T-Bone]

Shelley. Take a breath. GG and SJR are confirmed town. That's not something you should take personally or get upset about.

[shellyc]

I'm vanilla town. I'm just a town, on the verge of a mislynch.
Why is this game so unforgiving to newbies? I don't see why I'm locked scum by everyone.
SJR and Genius are town. Italiano is town-read by locked town.
Also I know that fakeclaim is impossible. Sorry I just realised SJR was the second mason.
I think word is like so much scummier here. Porkens I could see him as scum but not as much
