FL is as FL is; his methods can't work 100% of the time or we wouldn't be able to play with him

Tayl0r Swift · Post Post #202 (ISO) » Tue Oct 20, 2020 4:53 pm

well i think hes 0% in games with me. not very inspiring.

ISO · Post Post #203 (ISO) » Tue Oct 20, 2020 4:54 pm

he's very high % in games i've been in with him like, over all. he's also fun as hell.

Tayl0r Swift · Post Post #204 (ISO) » Tue Oct 20, 2020 4:59 pm

it wasnt fun when he repped in and started deathtunneling me for no reason when i was town, and people listened because "FL is very high %". he never really reconsidered.

this interaction is making me want to slam my head against a wall

again
this isnt a scum win
its a fucking town loss

PR worship = bad
overconfidence = bad
early massclaim = bad

*credit's where credit's due for scum though, fakeclaim + no kill executed very well, and ydrasse held onto my pressure quite well imo, and third member (probably pooky) is playing a great game

Gamma Emerald · Post Post #208 (ISO) » Tue Oct 20, 2020 6:10 pm

I should have fucking fought the early massclaim but I was already demotivated

Gamma Emerald · Post Post #209 (ISO) » Tue Oct 20, 2020 6:12 pm

FL has 200 more posts than anyone else rn. Dude needs to learn to chill out and cut down on the caffeine or fucking SOMTHING to not spam

Tayl0r Swift · Post Post #210 (ISO) » Tue Oct 20, 2020 6:13 pm

i expressed a tiny amount of skepticism but started to think FL would have to be scum for it to be a bad idea, and started to think FL was town. and then i got paranoid about a scum fake-claim gambit, but i thought it wasnt possible because town would have to have a protective. lesson learned. trust my gut, and im a silly goose.

this is funny coming from you shelly

high confidence is good in appropriate doses. checking yourself on how likely you actually are to be right is overpowered.

no its not funny
I did re-evaluate my ydrasse push by pushing HARDER and what I got was ydrasse was more likely scum
I would say some parts of ydrasse reactions were flailing

lesson learned
at least consider the possibility that a shellyc tunnel is correct

When you reconsider and it just makes your read stronger it doesn’t feel genuine to others

shellyc · Post Post #216 (ISO) » Tue Oct 20, 2020 6:32 pm

you're right but eh

I should study the art of obvtowning
SR -> reconsideration -> double down isnt really fake imo

Tayl0r Swift · Post Post #217 (ISO) » Tue Oct 20, 2020 6:34 pm

just hardclaim scum, thats what i do.

Gamma Emerald · Post Post #218 (ISO) » Tue Oct 20, 2020 9:22 pm

It isn’t fake but it doesn’t look great either
You’d need to have something you legitimately missed, probably

Mizzytastic · Post Post #219 (ISO) » Tue Oct 20, 2020 9:42 pm

Obvtowning is as much about changing playstyle to suit what the playerlist expects of town as it is acting in a particular townish way. Both sides can do it with different motivations.

I don't know if site meta has ever been in the place of actually understanding that RC quote you linked but mafia is a social game played by humans so I doubt it. Until it is in that place town has a bunch of motivation to fit in, "survivalism is alignment indicative" be damned.

Mizzytastic · Post Post #220 (ISO) » Tue Oct 20, 2020 9:43 pm

Also, there is nothing wrong about being town with good reads and a tendency to get mis-elimed, town needs a bunch of different types of players to function. I can get how it'd be frustrating though.

Yep but the problem is that flav every now and then lets his ego in the way and this game so far has been one of those cases. I did try and tell him this game

bob3141 · Post Post #222 (ISO) » Wed Oct 21, 2020 12:19 am

they really should be taking BM as town after all he was a recent scum buddy of mine. So i know thats not scum him.

shellyc · Post Post #223 (ISO) » Wed Oct 21, 2020 12:33 am

i have lost hope in FL and this town
