So basically:
Is she Scum, who is defensive and just trying to avoid being eliminated - but then named a list of names that never saves her?
Or is she town, who is defensive and demotivated - and named a list of names of the people she is actually suspicious of?

In post 117, furtiveglance wrote:Scum can be found day 1 but it's not as likely. Scum will likely be quite careful on day 1, and are less likely to be collectively scumread since mafia make up 2 (usually active) players in the town.

Ok fair enough Marcistar. I haven't written you off but I'm sure you can understand that I don't like you not giving full reads on the whole player list.

honestly it wouldve been mostly "idk i think they could be either alignment :heart_eyes:" and giving a readslist for it to mostly be that im not aboutta do

I really don't like this Luke
we wanted and were promised your read on marci once she got active
but this is looking like you are trying to save her without actually going out on a limb trying to save her
it would be suprememely helpful to have your read on her play so far, based on your experience with her
yes I know I spelled that wrong it was for increased emphaphasis

to get you jumpstarted here are some questions:
1) as town does marci usually take this long to develop actual reads?
2) as town does marci ignore pressure?
3) as town does marci often have reads outside the mainstream of the other players?

what about it
You were directly asked if you were town. Your response was "no, r u?" Please explain.
I think you might be town B)
so you have five reads out of eight players which means your readlist is something like this?

TOWN
Somnus
BigTerp

NULL
Lukewarm
TTTT
PPP

SCUM
Turtle
Alianna
furtive

my problem is that you have said these things when you do have reads
I don't think its useful to make a whole readslist thats just 90% "hehe idk they could be either alignment!!"

It is hard to come out and case my nullest read in the game. But she is the one sitting at e-1, so here we are. I can see glimmers of town, like I mentioned wrt to her scum list, but it would not blow my mind if she flipped scum.

Yes, I am hedgely, and sorry about that. But I just don't have a strong read on every player in the game. Some people land in null /unsure.

To answer your question

1) Yes. She holds off before she commits to a vote in almost every game I have been in with her, unless something really pinged her early.

2) I am not sure how you are defining "ignoring pressure."

3) Sure?

But, I think the important part of these questions was: yes, I have seen Marci play fairly similar to this as town and get miselimed for it. If she is busy irl, she can get disconnected from games, and if she gets a lot of pressure she can get demotivated.

Best example off the top of my head was SirCakez Divide and Conquer game, where I feel like she got a lot of flack for basically the same reasons she is here.

So, I can see this coming from town Marci - but I don't think it automatically makes her town either.

I am sitting about as on the fence with this read as is physically possible. Which probably is not super helpful. But, I would rather kill Somnus over Marci here. After the last page or so from Furtive, I would actually rather kill Furtive over Marci here as well.

Here are some quotes from town Marci, on Day 3, just before she is miseliminated that game

Because that wasn't really the impression I was getting from people from that game
the biggest similarity i think is that i dont have good reads that im confident in :cry:


She is being called out for uncertainty, not committing to reads, ect

And she just goes :shrug: sorry I don't have reads I'm confident in, and then obviously that did not sway the other players, and so she dies.

I have played a lot of games with Marci, and I have a pretty mixed bag on reading her.

--Correct Reads--

Divide and Conquer game I just linked, I was sure she was town and was defending her all the way to the point she got miselimed despite my efforts.

Our Isekai uPick game, I was sure she was scum and pushed her hard even when other people thought she was town.

--Incorrect Reads--

Our Shakespeare uPick game I was banging pots and pans together trying to get her eliminated, but she was town

The newbie game you linked, I defended her all the way up to MeLo - and only won because I finally decided to just sheep the other confirmed town

--No Reads--
The newbie game I mentioned just now, she was in my null reads to slight town leaning with reservations, for basically the whole game

-------

Sorry if you expected me to have some reliable tell to read her on in games, but I don't. The one exception being her early real time interactions can sometimes be a bit weak when she is scum, but I did not get any of those from her this game to look at, so not helpful

I am ready to town lock TTTT all the way to Elo (where obviously he should be reconsidered if he is alive at that point) for this.

I never see this much meta work from Scum unless they are desperate. There is no reason for Scum TTTT to be digging through Marci's past scum games here, or whatever he did to find our hydra game either.

There's just two that I had a hard time understanding. Pimpest and I had a brief dialogue about 332 but it quickly dissolved (was late at night). I took a look at it later on with a fresh set of eyes and still didn't entirely understand it, but it's kind of whatever. 378 pinged me a lot harder. I'll get to that in a bit.

Ok. So there's 2 I didn't understand, but there's a couple other ones that I have questions about. Surely you knew that in mafia, people get voted off, correct? I'm not being sarcastic when I ask that, so please don't take my question as me being snide because I promise you I'm being serious. I've never played on Epic Mafia, but is it so fundamentally different from forum mafia that you didn't know the goal that we're working towards? What changed to make you less interested in the game pertaining to the setup? Help me understand.
