DEFCON Mafia 5.0: GAME OVER - NEW AMERICA FORMED

[Prism]

My posting across games is intentionally very similar. The fact that this start is not remotely similar to the start of WH13 remains, and it is odd that you think starting out shitposting-as opposed to using it to keep myself sane over the course of the game, which is the norm- seems to be a towntell.

But I will move on.

WHAT A FILTHY LIE

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

I WILL NUKE AT LEAST ONE PERSON THIS GAME SO HELP ME GOD

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

Skitt has a hypothesis that when I’m scum I warp my navigation of the gamestate around what she/her slot is doing

But I don’t get how she thinks I’m doing that here

HYPOTHESIS IS TOO BIG OF A WORD TO COME FROM A TRUE AMERICAN

I DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT IT MEANS

THIS IS A RUSSKIE SCUM

[Prism]

Jesus Christ we might actually need to Standard Mastina Protocol the game

I’m sorry let me try that again

SKITT USE BRAIN HAVE IDEA THAT MENA SCUM WHEN MENA TALK TO HER OR PLAY GAME WITH HER IN MIND BUT MENA NOT UNDERSTAND HOW HE DOING THAT HERE OR HOW SKITT THINK THAT

Pooky is self-evidently a TRUE PATRIOT with love of COUNTRY AND GOD above all. He radiates town with every iota of his posting. I realize that I've yet to see a proper Pooky scumgame (I might've seen it once in a hydra? Not sure, would need to check my memory, if I did he was underwhelming but it's possible I haven't seen Pooky-scum before), so I realize that he's apparently pretty damn good at it...but he's doing everything to just be. Town. Through and through. He's just radiating, oozing, town. To borrow his own words, he bleeds red white and blue with his very essence. He's got that energy, that aura, radiating town from him in a way that just, I don't see how that's ever scum.

you were doing so much better last game, it's unfortunate that we've gone back to this

Elaborate?

[The Church of Skitter]

I'd do it again

I not know why

tovarisch

buddypal but this post just striking me as very town in tonal sense

I liking defiant note in writing

[Et Al]

But more than that, Something_Smart also is someone I would expect to see town in if he were town. I'm not seeing it. In fact what I'm seeing reminds me of scum-S_S.

I'm on it, but you're gonna need to give me more time than this.

Spoiler:

Ego

Scum?

mastina's reads look random to me?

They aren't. I have a very detailed internal model of how I expect town and scum to act in the rvs (one that is somewhat dynamic), along with what amounts to a mental algorithm for players who haven't posted to help me sort them even without posts. (Which is why the null section is too big--I should be able to sort the names in there by and large even without them having posted.) It's something I've partially explained before but I wouldn't know how to fully unpack it and even if I did, once I did, it would make the process obsolete.

I can however explain my reads.

Pooky is self-evidently a TRUE PATRIOT with love of COUNTRY AND GOD above all. He radiates town with every iota of his posting. I realize that I've yet to see a proper Pooky scumgame (I might've seen it once in a hydra? Not sure, would need to check my memory, if I did he was underwhelming but it's possible I haven't seen Pooky-scum before), so I realize that he's apparently pretty damn good at it...but he's doing everything to just be. Town. Through and through. He's just radiating, oozing, town. To borrow his own words, he bleeds red white and blue with his very essence. He's got that energy, that aura, radiating town from him in a way that just, I don't see how that's ever scum.

gorilla is basically trying to mastina mastina, with his readslist style and his town scum quoting of posts, but beyond that, the way he suggested total war, the progression in his stances, what he is doing inthread and overall the total content just seems town.

Prism is already exuding similar energy to my experience with Prism as town. I instantly clicked with Prism's opener as being town and the things Prism are doing just feel town to me in a way that's a bit hard to articulate. Call it gut if you must but I'm just pretty sure that this is Prism as town. Granted, I've not actually seen Prism as scum but this

feels

like Prism as town.

Cephrir's opener gave me scumpings as an opener more likely to be from scum, but his content since then has been very much the Cephrir as town that I got to see in Team Mafia. I realize he's a skilled enough scum player to look highly town as scum and to imitate his town meta, but what he's doing doesn't look like scum imitating their town meta, it looks like town being in their town meta.

samantha is by far the weakest of these townreads, mostly from samantha's opener.

STD I've liked so far, but while it looks vaguely town, STD is a legendary player whose skills at scum mean that this is not out of what I imagine STD's scumrange to be.

Equinox is similar, in looking town but not being locktown yet.

Nexus I lean town on from his opener but I need more to be sure.

DeasVail is pure gut.

Bell and deep-city-lights are both gut from the algorithm.
T3 is hard to get a lock on, but I do lean scum from T3's content overall.

Church of Skitter is Ali and that comes with the disclaimer that I can't read Ali worth shit, but I feel like I should be able to read Mena here. So far nothing town from them and they look scum but it's not locked.

Titus's townplay has degraded to the point where just about every game of hers I think her towngame is her as scum, and this is why she's not lockscum--but she looks and breathes scum to me right now; my previous inaccuracies are the only reason she's not lockscum here.

Vaxkiller isn't even trying to hide that he's scum here.

And Et Al is my largest scumread because it is the hydra I would expect to be the towniest slot in the game--skitter is a bloody paragon, both having won the award and being at that level to receive nominations multiple consecutive years. I would expect her to, very quickly, radiate town. She hasn't. But more than that, Something_Smart also is someone I would expect to see town in if he were town. I'm not seeing it. In fact what I'm seeing reminds me of scum-S_S.

Oh yeah I should mention

Don't do this, basically ever. UT won the last game because he did it and managed to convince people that it was a town blunder.

[samantha97]

speaking of last game can anyone link any past games

I tldred everything except the defcon stuff and didn't realize it was a series of games until today

[Et Al]

I liking defiant note in writing

Defiance is usually towny, yes, but knowing samantha's personality and knowing that she voted against Total War without realizing she was the one who killed it, I could see her trying to project confidence as scum rather than admitting to a mistake and possibly receiving heat for that.

Wait why is this a scum move inherently tho?

The last run.

It was a hot minute ago. Featuring me being a dumbass but somehow managing to piss off the cop enough to make him claim even though it was clearly wrong, among other things.
