I am good at this game
It's not as important now as I'm not trying to pre-screen you, but examples?
Ok so I need to prove why I think I am good at this game?

I mean my reads have steadily improved game after game. I am getting better at finding wolves

I have mislynch rate of about like 5% in all games in my entire career as either alignment

Idk what I can say
I guess I'll take your word for it at this point but that also puts a Burden of Proficiency on you and getting me wrong doesn't help that, though I guess I can laud your efforts to reach out to change things.
i mean even if i suck ass i am not gonna say, "hey i suck at this game so when you get into a PT with me I am gonna suck so bad and bring our couple down :("

presenting confidence, even if it may be a little undeserved, is important in a game of mafia with online strangers, imo
Understandable. Though your response after my changing tune tells me you actually believe your hype at least a little.
I absolutely do know I hype myself up. I do it on purpose. People who 'coached' me before pointed that out to me and told me countless times to be "less confident" with my reads

I kinda like this trait. I am actually pretty reserved in real life. I like the fact that I can be a different me in mafia, and I like to swing it around when I can.
Tbh Mafia is good practice for irl social skills in general.

I mean, there's no chance of scum-Vedith going out in a blaze of glory because the lynch threshold will be 9.

Gamma's pair definitely gets lynched in second dance, probably first, but by that point we're out of yolobomb territory.

what's yolobomb?

i also agree that gamma should be paried. How many coins does she have? Also there are 3? gentlemen left? 2? I am not sure if 3, 4 people dying pre-vote stage is a good idea.

I scum read gamma, but she can always be lynched in the future. also wouldnt mind her spewing if she were a wolf in the voting stages

I don't understand ur point if u think they get lynched either way and u somehow think them getting lynched later is less of a yolobomb than during the first dance exactly? I am confused on what is going through ur mind, what am i missing?

but he's been more interested for example in pairing with someone who townreads him than on what his read is on them for example

and I see very little attempt to sort on any of the recent pages and his push for me to leave dance was gross so
There’s no reason for either you or Ank to leave. I’m glad both of you finally realized that.
I mean... if RC is dead we can sheep his reads until the end of the earth. If he's alive we can't do that.
is rc's town game that good?
RC is more valuable to the game alive then dead, so I don’t know why SS is saying this.

Scum gentleman using a ton of votes to lynch a widely townread pair.

Not if he has 100% townreads on two town pairs.

the chances of scum using yolo bomb to me seems low but idk what is going through their mind.

i didn't say 100%

No, it's the opposite.

If you have reads that are as confident as yours seem to be this game,
we can lynch you and win without any risk at all
. If you're town and correct on your reads you've singlehandedly won us the game, and every person will be following exactly what you say. I hardly see how that's unfair to you.
Dafuq? Why tf would we want to lynch RC here?

yolobomb sounds more like something a townie would do than scum but w/e

also not sure why this changes anything with gamma being partnered or not. unles that changes how effective a yolobomb would be.

I'm talking about if Vedith is scum and, knowing that town would win through PoE otherwise, hammers a widely townread pair like Moment/Brie. That's a lynch on a pair that otherwise would never have been lynched, which is a huge blow to town.

so how does the voting work?

there's 1-8 coins so maj is just 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8 = 36, 19/36 votes? is that how it works

SS, did you out how many coins you had

Posted: Wed Feb 13, 2019 6:04 pm

it takes 9 votes so 2 people would be scumclaiming in that process

I mean, yeah, you shouldn't ever be literally 100%.

This is why I said you could make this decision... you can let us know if you ever get confident enough.

you know I could leave the dance as soon as I see one vote down to not even give vedith the chance, right?

i think playing the game entirely around town!RC's reads is kinda dumb no matter how good of a player they are

No it's based on living numbers. So with 14 alive its 8 to lynch meaning Vedith!scum can just kill a pair.

Well, Urist seems the most likely since I haven’t seen Allo since Brie turned him down. So I don’t know if he just gave up on the game?
