So I don't see any merit in hurting them at the moment. I think this is more interesting, and hopefully will produce better results than the last time I ran an experiment with Enchant involved.

I will never comprehend your logic. I just healed myself. Or is that's looked charismatistic?
I don't mind though.

So basically you decided to not go in coalition.
You also throws me, feral and and pev from this one.
That's 4 people already. So basically you think everyone else is town and coalition locked?
Good luck with that.
In post 38, cyrus62 wrote:If I was scum why would I do that?
Oh well.

Town motivation to remove self:
... Uuuh. I really can't see reason. Give me? Because you basically lowering chances for instant win if you keep self out.

Scum motivation:
Doesh't want to be caught in coalition with partner.

I consider this very bad play. But i believe, mafia don't want to be SO blatant. Either way, stop please.

Thankfully i don't remember that.


Either way, we have two ways how to play it and i am thinking now which is best.
1. Most obvious, try to get all townies in coalition. Already explained. I am a bit sceptical about chances to get 0 mafias on Coalition. Unless we are scumreading gods. I am not.
2. Try to get all potential mafia members in coalition. Sounds counterreversal, but if we get both mafia on coalition, this would be easy game, as we need just simple elim everyone from coalition for win. I am not sure about row chances to get 2 mafias on coalition, but if it's higher than getting 0 mafias, probably we should go for that.

I think it's best to simply carry on as usual, forming townreads organically, then vote the top 5 most universally townreads to the coalition

@MOD
actually I have a question

A rule states "A majority Coalition is agreed upon when at least five players have the
same group
of five people proposed as a Coalition. At this point, the Coalition is locked in and cannot be changed." => this implies coalition votes have to be in tuples of 5s, i.e, 5 people have to vote for the same coalition for it to be locked in

but the way you are handling coalition votes right now is counting individual votes and not tuples

I just want to make sure the coalition is locked in as a tuple of 5 at the same time rather than one coalition member being locked in one after another after reaching 5 votes

Correct, a Coalition will not be locked in until there are 5 identical groups proposed by 5 different players.
Players do not have to propose 5 people all at once, though none will be locked in until the previously stated conditions are met.

no you're not useing proper logic as town I am willing to keep my self out as a act of good faith why because right now I would think scum was would want either of them in it there is only 7 town 5 day 2 and 3 day 3 if we don't hit scum so scums best actions is to be the 5

I'm tempted to townread cyrus for now. The willingness to work with Pavowski and to form his Coalition feel genuine at least. I also have a weak tonal Townread on Pavowski.

HEAL: cyrus
HEAL: Pavowski

Yes, I know they're currently doing the "build the Coalition without us in it" exercise.

If I had to come up with a Scumread, I think Farren's the closest to it? He gives me a vibe of an analytical player, who right now feels as if he's forcing himself to post and keep up the analytical appearance? But the game isn't exactly full of content, to be fair. Everyone else feels null so far.

You do understand that we won't know whether it's 1 or 2 Scum in the Coalition if it fails, right?
Once again today begins this farce we call a trial.
