If I am in this group, I would like to know. I need to be aware of where my play can be vastly improved upon and it can be hard to self-evaluate.

If someone is comparing you to me, it means you're good but hard to read Imo. You rely highly on reading, analyzing and manipulating data and theories.

I'm flattered. I'm sorry. I should not have brought this up. I would like to discuss this post-game however, if you get the chance.

Absolutely. While I think you're either scum or a townbeard, I think you would be very receptive to my theories about how town and scum should behave. regardless of alignment, you have ticks and strategy beliefs that don't work based on your personality.

You're welcome to hydra with me or crash any game of mine. Would be fun.

I love teaching people the game.

Such a travesty will never occur again as long as I draw breath. Talk to me, Garmr. Where are you at this game?

Lets see in short

I was pushing eagle hard earlier.
Then I noticed kling was pressured over easy to dispell bad reasoning for one post and I think a town kling would easily be able to handle that she is pretty bad as scum.
Then I saw the spiffy wagon pop up and tbh I don't like the reasoning on it +the fact eagle jumped on.
I realized that my eagle case isn't going to go through today but I can lynch my second scum read in klingy.
Also I have more town reads than scum reads but I guess the town make up the majority of the game so yeh.

So that my mind processed in the minimum amount of words possible.

Asking how you are perceived is a ok btw. More than what I said, best for post game.

In a word, no. You are definitely in the upper half of the players here, at worst.

While's no need for me to needlessly run my mouth about people's competency, anyone can ask if they really want to know what I think. But I won't lie for the sake of your feelings.

Anyway, back to the game.
"i have the sickest grossest feeling that even if it's my lynch today, my townflip still won't lead to a tso lynch, and then he'll find some bullshit way to reason either shooting or lynching gm tomorrow because if there's anyone who can strongarm a mislynch despite his reads or cases being proved wrong time and again it's tso"

In all likelihood, that will probably happen. But I was ignored when I started too. Mafia has a definite learning curve and very few people get to evade its necessities.

This mirrors what I've been doing as well. Excellent stuff. (Though you do tend to be scum a disproportionately high amount of the time, so...)

Do you have any unusual reads, aside from the ones you've mentioned?

Mod - you're going to have to bite the bullet and get replacing shortly, half the game is hardly playing.

It's worth saying that my criticisms have been scientifically proven to be at least three (3) times as scathing as Spifflop's.

more relevantly, TSO I'm loving your posts this and last page. I've read them but I'm on my phone and typing sucks. When I get home I will talk more. I'm glad you're on the same page with kling, she really needs to die.

I'm not trying to be a big meanie and personally insult people, but Jeanne is the only player I've ever had to blacklist for a reason. That's all I'll say on the matter.

Awesome. Like I mentioned earlier I have played mafia before, but my play was nightmarishly bad and I thought I was doing an excellent job, which only made it worse. I've obviously learned quite a bit since then (or at least I hope it's obvious). I could go in detail about this but it's not absolutely necessary right now, so I'll keep to myself about it for now.

I have had quite a few thoughts about strategies and theories about mafia and I'm kind of trying to implement ideas that I have had little practice with here, but you have to start practicing somewhere, right? It would definitely be good to discuss these with someone who has more experience when I know they're not scum.

So I would definitely love to hydra with you on another game.

All that said, what's a townbeard?

A townbeard is someone who is convinced scum are the one true town.

Just pm me to get the hydra process started. :)

: a person who unwittingly aids their enemies : one who is more disruptive to their own cause than to their enemies' cause : a fool who is stubborn in their idiocy : foolish, incompetent <the townbeard decried the efforts of the mayor to unite, while an assassin slipped through the gate>

It's right there in Merriam-Webster, if you look.

Marvellous stuff! I agree - Kling does need rope sooner or lately, for multiple reasons.
