Generally cautious Day 1 because losing 1 of the 2 maf in a 9'er on Day 1 is an absolute disaster. Usually open up more as the game progresses. I dunno. Exciting but stressful.

I meant more in terms of skill.

[Somnus]

I think I've done reasonably well in my 3 scum games. 2 wins and a loss. All 3 results felt deserved, good or bad.

[BlueBloodedToffee]

You have 3 games played and are still in the Newbie queue?

I think I would agree, you seem a somewhat accomplish scum player.

How would you say your scum and town games differ?

[Somnus]

I don't have a town game prior to the start of this game. I rolled mafia in all 3 of my completed games. It's why I decided to give it one more go in the Newbie Queue.

[BlueBloodedToffee]

Have you never played prior to playing on this site?

[Somnus]

I played 1 game off-site back in January and rolled town, but it was barely a game of mafia. It was mostly people shit-posting and getting drunk and then speed-wagoning people they didn't like. No claims, just quick pileup and eliminate someone.

[BlueBloodedToffee]

Alright, that's actually kind of annoying but I guess we'll roll with it.

Bella, what are your thoughts on Somnus?

[BlueBloodedToffee]

Also, let me rephrase an earlier question.

How do you expect your town game to differ from your scum game?

Hard to say less than 48 hours in. Less concerned with my potential death, I guess? I don't really know how to answer that.

Hey Guys good to be back in the game its been a while I was getting the bug and wanted to jump back in.

I have been playing this on and off since 2015, a couple games every 2 years, think my first game was with Bella in 2015 and my second was with our almighty mod Humaneatingmonkey in 2017, so its fair to say im pretty rusty. Tbh I am just glad to be here and dip my toe in the water again.

I need to give the whole thread a more thorough read through but from first glance the Vasex v Somnus convo, I think Vasex's postings have been to obtain reactions and see who bites and how hard. I've seen it before in a previous game different context but same method. I think his method is strange but I think its always useful D1 to get out of the RVS for something like that to happen to push conversation into a more seriously inquisitive direction.

I know it can seem weird for town to intentionally do something that comes across scummy, but imo one of the best ways to hunt scum is to do so via reactions. The trick then is to try and ascertain who is trying to be scummy to gauge reactions and who is being scummy because they actually are.

Thanks, I guess.

I'd rather you think my scum-game is shit and town-read me, but this is a close 2nd, I suppose

[Bellaphant]

I thought their initial pitch on vasex was awful, and then they doubled down, Ans interacted slightly oddly with the other people telling them to drop it (whiskey, rad and later someone else) but they responded really well to me, which felt town. Little worried they know I respond well to 'reasonable' but not enough to elim then day one.

More worried about rad, tbh. I flip from massively town reading them one post to having to check it's still the same slot next post as I find it so odd.

I have no read on vasex or msq. Not much on italiano either.

Also, of course I remember you

P-edit I don't think that's a good vote, genuinely.
Pp-edit I'll go check that game! Welcome

[BlueBloodedToffee]

Alright, something in your post has piqued my interest.

Shall we wagon one of your weaker reads?

[Bellaphant]

Should I be worried

I've kinda thrown down a pressure vote on my weakest read, which is lame I know.

[BlueBloodedToffee]

Hahaha, maybe! Let's wait and see.
