Familiarity bias: The psychological effect that makes you think good players you've previously played with couldn't possibly be scum. I suppose.Kai wrote:@Mastin: I was laughing so hard during D1 and D2. I thought you had a better meta on me than you do. I was going so far outside my town meta this game it wasn't even funny, and you just took it in stride, even to the point of helping me policy lynch you. What made you so sure I was town?
And, Kai, my townread on you wasn't that strong. You were heavily against me, despite knowing my meta, you were supporting those who I did not...
If random/poptaj had been lynched instead of me, in fact, I likely would've just shot ya.
I had a very strong read on BC. His claim was believable, he was within his meta, everything matched.Battle Mage wrote:True enough, but Mastin vouching 100% for BC, was very impressive too. Had the town believed Mastin, the town would have had a massive edge.
The thing that killed me more than ANYthing else was being V/LA during the night, and not realizing it was night, until AFTER night was over.Mastin's meta, and confusing claim, reduced his reliability, but his read on BC was still spot-on.
So I was proud of my read. I just knew it was right, with every fiber of my body. My mission was, essentially, to lynch anyone wanting to lynch BC.
I DID. I knew I was a vig, I just thought I was ALSO a Death-SK-Miller.Battle Mage wrote:Haha, Mastin was told he was a Serial Killer, by name, but his role description was that of a Vigilante. All he had to do was work out he was actually a Vig, and claim that.
That would be due to a phrase in my PM. Forget the exact wording, and which phrase, but I had good reason to think I was compulsive! <_<Hahaha! Oh yeah, i remember that! Quite amusing really. Mastin never killed anyone. But, for some inexplicable reason, he thought he was a Compulsive Vig, and i submitted a kill for him. Crazy, huh? xD
Hey, BM. Remember the PM I sent ya final day? The one I sent ya because I honestly had no clue why the game wasn't over? Mind showing that to the others? I had fun writing that. (Short on time, short on time...)
