I also think that things might get very interesting on Day 2.

After reading the first Day of Open 810 (knowing who scum is), and Professor not being in here, I'm still very much leaning him scum.

No Spoilers please! :]

How I wish I had someone to talk to! lol

I do see scum doing a different NK, if I'm wrong. The "claim" would make me NK somewhere else, if I had been scum. The claim only becomes important in a certain situation.

Still think Professor has scum potential, maybe with Galron as a partner? Galron threw Professor several softball questions that Professor never acknowledged in any way. I know Professor busses a lot, but this seems like Galron is throwing out slight shade to later say he sussed him a bit if Professor is caught scum.

I'm also aware I may be conf-biasing.

Porkens is still a suspect too. Geraint's play so far doesn't read Town to me either, but that might just be the way they play.

My POE is Professor, Galron, Porkens, with a chance of Geraint. That's almost half the alive player list. :?

I'm going to look at this game from the POV of me being wrong about everything and see if I still feel this way tonight.

I agree with Malcolm's post 1024. Several slot are being very obscure.

Would a Townie with only 2 slots sussing them and no votes really say "Yeah mafia are power wolfing probably idk if I want to deal with it though can we execute me today?
I’m just a backup. :/"???

@ Greeting I was reading a game from my former incarnation in forum mafia. I quote stripped way more often, tunnelled way too much, etc. Even though it was 8 years ago (the game I'm reading) I think I sound pretty much the same. I try hard to be more succinct these days though, so less wall posts.

Any criticisms or advice is welcome on how to deal with meta today is welcomed. If you wanna know my former (incarnation) I'll give it to you in a PM.

As per post 11, I can see Professor overextending themselves, and saying this.

My personal opinion is that meta tells are overrated. There are some players on this site for whom meta is a reliable tell, but once you know what your meta is, or how it is perceived by others, you can manipulate it. Personally, I strongly prefer in-game tone tells and content over looking up player's past games.

That's for general advice, I cannot really assess your performance in this game while the game is still running. If you drop me the name, I could, however, take a look at your former account.

Pages 43 & 44 are like what??? to me. VERY confused. All these soft claims that are invisible, at least to me. I've been over Galron's posts several times, not seeing it. Porkens claim of a soft claim seemed to befuddle geraint just as much as me.

How many scums?? Rhetorical question. Time will tell.

I have SO much more I'd like to ask peeps, but alas, I'm dead. :( :(

I wouldn’t say I’m very good at mafia myself, sometimes I play well (Newbie 2085 and Newbie 2100 are my good scum games, even though I lost the latter, Large Normal 240 is a good town game of mine) and some games and I are just not meant to be. But I do think that it’s always wise to have someone else evaluate your gameplay, this way you can better yourself and learn.

Spoiler: Not a spoiler per se, more of an opinion of the gamestate
If town doesn't get its shit together, they're going to lose.

@ Greeting
Spoiler:
I haven't forgotten that PM, the weekend just got crazy. It'll probably get written later tonight. When you do get it, please don't feel rushed to answer it. It is asking a lot for someone to read a game or two and then "judge them" lol.


Pedit My opinion exactly, I don't want to be critical, but I don't see too many slots even trying. It
seems
some slots are just trying to beef up their scum games. Is playing too scummy to be scum a part of the "new" meta? :?

Salsabil seems to be trying to be Town leader. Kitty seems to be trying, still leaning Malcolm Town. I don't
think
NJAC is scum. I was reading Shii Town, but I'm not sure anymore. I have a lot of questions I wish I could ask.

I still see a good case for Professor scum. Some of my reasoning is out of this game, so I won't bring that up. Maybe I just want him to be scum. lol

I just noticed I said "I don't mean to be (fill in word)", then finish with being that same thing. :roll:

I'd probably be voting Porkens right now. Maybe compromise vote on geraint or Galron.

I remember a time (several years ago) when we (we were all familiar with each other) voted out my oldest son like 5 games in a row. Everybody's logic, including mine, was eventually we'd get him right (as scum). These were IRL games with friends, and it was all in fun, but it wasn't good scum hunting. Still we did it. Lol.

He never had scum in all those games.
