To answer Italiano's qs.
1. A few games on this site though saying I am experienced is a stretch.
2. A strengh is prob iso reading and a weakness is not reevaling a read correctly or at all. Though I will admit self-meta is not my thing.
For scumhunting, Agreed on the inconsistencies, but also looking for people who are not solving or are being very guarded.
Townreading, I would say gut also and seeing how they post and whether it seems genuine.

My strength as a townie is that I got a green PM. My weakness is everything else.

My leet scumhunting technique is to find the most intelligent sounding player and pocket them.

So, this was the 14th post after mine soVOTE: not mafia

Someone asked about expereince/strengths. I've been playing a long time, but I am not very good. I am bad at finding scum, but I also end up not voting for townies much either. And I hate day 1s.

Think I've only played with not mafia before though

We don't know anything about the set-up?

No idea how many mafia there are, if there are more than two factions? No idea what roles people might have?

This is weird. I don't like it.

Bad post Reaver click on the link for normal games, and to answer since this is a mini only one town and one mafia faction.
There is a list of roles on the wiki for normal games.

I don't even remember signing-up for this game. Sorry if you think my post is bad, but given people are still posting things like 'this is the fourteenth post,' there isn't exactly a high bar to reach.

Thank you for the info though, Walter.

Alright, that is a good point. Just an overreact from me, just thought you would know that because site rules.
You're welcome.

Assume the setup is 10-3.

If we Lynch 3 mafia and the game doesn't end. Panic.

1. Every game that has or will ever exist.

2. Strengths? Physical, I will bench press all of you.
Weakness?.........weakness????

3. Most important to look for scum when scum hunting I would think. I don't townread anyone ever so that's not relevant.

1: a ton, mostly here but some offsite
2: I feel like I’m good at intuiting the identities of scum, but I have trouble actually selling anyone on my reads
3: it’s not really a thing to look for, but I think avoiding axiomatic mindsets is important, it’s very rare to find something that’s cut and dry

I’ll go first.
  • - This is my 5th game game onsite, however, I have been playing the wolf/village variation of the game on a forum called WeBL since about 2006. I’m still learning how to play the game on this platform; trying to get the terms down and all that; still learning the roles and alignment s and slots and all that, so by mafia standards I’m still a noob. ;)
    - I’d have to say my strength is the ability to townread players. Because of my overall experience I am right on village/town reads probably about 80-85% of the time all time. It’s obviously not that high on here, but still fairly high enough, I’d say about 55%. My weakness is scumhunting. A large part of this is my overthinking. Many times I’ve talked myself out of scumreads or finding wolves because of this. No matter how much I’ve tried to alleviate this flaw it keeps biting me in the butt, so I figured I’d focus on my strength and try to keep strengthening that.
    - I think looking for inconsistencies and either passiveness or aggressiveness given the context. When I townread, it’s mainly gut sometimes as I can’t point to something specific, but I’d say I look for a player being disagreeable and/or a player who has his own thoughts and mind and doesn’t go with the crowd.
Look forward to your answers.
What is this, an interview?

Why is it a bad post? Seems like it was genuine to me

Or are you just being snarky?

Here's some better questions guys:

1) What do you like most about cinderblocks

2) What is your favorite concrete color mix?

3) When was the first time a cinder block changed your life?

4) What is the capital of Assyria?

5) Do you believe the Church and gospel of Jesus Christ have been restored through the Prophet Joseph Smith?

When I discovered it had a chalky stratchy dust when I rubbed my hands on one.

No.
Here I developed some even better questions!
1. Is it okay to put rotting produce into an uncooked stead as a filler?
What is the cinderblock you would like most as a pet?
Are pineapples good on pizzas?

By filler I mean as a stuffing of sorts.
