Real talk for 1 second: the inactive rule probably finds scum at a higher rate than using my reads.
Well Fiona and Julian have finally made appearances so I am hopeful. Bleys is a bit inactive though that is normal. Random too, but also kind of normal. I expect some more from dierdre. Llewella though is purposefully being less active though, which feels either scummy, or game thorwing for the dumbest fucking reason ever. What are your thoughts on that?

This strategy gives a pass to everyone else not psoting and participating and kind of banks on a hail mary prayer, I don't see where this 33% bs is coming for either, are we pulling this out of our ass? We have time left, lets force people to post!
I talked about the math earlier. Let’s assume at most there are 6 real Vanillas and 3 scum. So any group of 3 players, 33% are likely to be scum fundamentally.
Lets vote on behavior.

ya i kind of want to lynch anyone who just blindly wants to lynch the only two ppl to claim so far
You buddying me just makes me want to scum read you. Stop.

It’s hard with this player, but I think the strategy is to avoid more than 3 people claim and POE the Vanillas. It makes it harder and harder for scum to claim Vanilla
This is a good balanced strategy.

Agreed. Was it Bleys who first brought up that scum could be role playing each other? My immediate reaction was that it's a pointless strat. And then I believe it was also Bleys who said
"I don't know who any of you are and tbh I'm not going to waste time trying to figure it out."
Doesn't make sense.
Good point. Don't know if I would call it a scum slip per say, but definitely an inconsistency.

Okay use an extra 2% brain power and identify them based on pfp. You got this! I believe in you! You’re a big boy!

I don’t isntantly scum read you for the idea of it. But I do want you to explain the interaction between the alleged slip around the crypto rule and magos statement a bit further because it looks like a slip.
A-Gerard · 6 months ago
Got some big time whiners is this game. “Fiona and Flora are tooo clooossseee”
”I can’t figure out who people areeeeee”
”This that and the other thing are OGI”
Like come on people this shit ain’t that hard. It’s mafia and it’s a semi open set up. You shouldn’t be surprised that you have to engage at least 10% of your brain power here.

Dead
None
Claims List
Caine- Vanilla Town
Martin- Vanilla Town
Unclaimed
Bleys
Brand
Deidre
Fiona
Flora
Gerard
Julian
Llewella
Oberon
Random
Who people maybe are.
A-Gerard · 6 months ago
I agree. Somewhat disinterested because of the other accounts. Its hard to gather reads and compare past behavior and I have to constantly go back and reference who is who.
Read post 494 and put a list together for reference. Should make it easier for you

Small chance that Fiona is the T-rex and Random the bull
A-Gerard · 6 months ago
It's hard to do real analysis when identities aren't really known to this point.
How about some poetry then? Bleys is kind of old like a dying wilted flower. Brand reminds me of an ancient museum god called thoth full of wisdom. Deidre has a fire lit under them, like a cool white colored flame. Flora reminds me of home, when my mother would make me sweet cherry pies. Gerard is kind of insane, a bit of a lunatic. Llewella is definitely going to hell. Oberon is a wizard, and knows all the magic spells. Random is a big lumbering T-Rex, trampeling through the wilderness. Caine is a japanese underclassman. Martin has a big large penis, roughly the shape of a banana. Fiona charges steadily forward like a raging bull.

I am starting to think the inactivity is intentional and planned by the scum team, because players who are usually active by now are just not posting.
A-Gerard · 6 months ago
That's only cause half of them are test posts
And the other half are me. Wanna help me fix that? Any reads or thoughts would be helpful from you good sir
A-Gerard · 6 months ago
Can you start a seperate thread for these
A-Gerard · 6 months ago
My reads are shifting a bit but not by much only slightly. I don't have as many town reads as I would like at this stage, but I am hoping that will change as some of these people start participating more.
Scum pile: Brand, Flora, Llewella, Deidre, Julian
Null pile: Bleys, Fiona, Oberon
Slight Town: Martin, Caine, Random
A-Gerard · 6 months ago
Oberon didn’t fucking say anything relevant for the most part and just had little bursts. I have no fucking idea who they are besides my presumption but even then I don’t want to go too deep
I am pretty sure I have every singly player nailed down at this point, and with you posting, POE leaves Fiona fairly obvious. Oberon is kind of obvious if you look at their posting style.
Only thing I cannot account for is if people are role playing well as each other but that strategy seems kind of like it would do more harm than good.

To be honest nothing is really jumping out of the page to me. I don’t know if it’s because of the anonymity of everyone or if it’s because I’m on mobile in the gym working out on the cardio machine but don’t have any hard reads besides my observations about postín styles
How do you read over 400 posts and say "nothing is jumping out of the page to me"
A-Gerard · 6 months ago
Went to sleep and woke up and there's been like no activity. Interesting.
A-Gerard · 6 months ago
Some of y'all are not making it very hard to guess who you are. Cmon Baird…you could have at least tried to be a bit more anonymous
Baird = Brand I am guessing
A-Gerard · 6 months ago
Also are you all the way caught up yet? It doesn’t feel like you are based on some things you said but wanted to double check before I jump to that assumption
A-Gerard · 6 months ago
Something irks me about Gerard. It just feels like they are overposting a lot more than they need to be posting at this rate. I also think there targeting of Bleys for the PM thing is stupid and feels like scum pushing for some action and I don’t love it
Since when is too much activity a bad thing? I feel like I’ve been making quality posts and kept fluffing too a minimum. That said I am online when most people are sleeping so while I have a lot of posts they aren’t as useful since I don’t have as many people to interact with, so it might seem like I’m hyper focused on the one or two people I actually can interact with.
A-Gerard · 6 months ago
No I read that one, it was talking about a few relevant things that have occurred but I was hoping for something a little more fleshed out on all the players who have posted, and maybe some sort of general idea of what yours thoughts are for how we should pursue the day phase, is there anyone in particular you want to lynch, and why, etc. But yeah catch up. Take your time. Most of the last few pages are just my neurotic over night posting so it shouldn’t take too long.
A-Gerard · 6 months ago
To clarify the part about the corner I meant in relation to the disguised only, as it just tells you a will was tampered with not what the will is itself. I understand the corner could theoretically assists against the other two I mentioned. Assuming again that coroner exits. Which I think is likely it does.
A-Gerard · 6 months ago
Yeah, You also got like another 2k posts of me talking about what I was doing and why.
In a completely separate game... Yeah. I mean that was a unique situation where you could play a little more loosely (until I died that is) publicly based on having me able to vouch for you in a mason thread.
This one there is also a last will mechanic where I can put my thoughts into a post that will be revealed to town.
There are three scum roles that could potentially fuck up your last will however. Traitor, Illusionist, and Disguiser. It seems the coroner (if one even exists) doesn't reveal your last will just tells people it was tampered with. So your strategy is to bank the majority of your contribution towards helping town to a mechanic that could likely be interfered with? Forgive me for not understanding this strategy at all. And feel free to correct me if I am wrong about any of this information.
All that and I dont trust you.
Well the great thing is that you don't have to provide reads and thoughts for me. Do it for the town's collective benefit. I happen to be the one asking you because I happen to be on at the moment, but I guarantee you others will be seeking similar information from you.
At every turn you are casting shade.
Casting shade? When and where? I feel like I've been pretty professional in my interactions with you. Does me not immediately town reading you somehow indicate that I am casting shade on you, in your mind?
I really want to trust you but your only turning moment was realizing who I was and not what my alignment was.
Well to be fair you haven't given me anything to realize what your alignment was. And when I directly asked you why I should town read you, you basically said I have no reason to and that I should consider you as if you are third party. Factoring that in with the fact that you are admitedly playing a meta game inside this one where you challenge yourself at the cost of helping your alleged team, what are you giving me to work with here?
I would love for you to be town. But you also seeded a lot of doubt in the mason PM from the previous game when you consistently tried to tell me how well you are at playing as scum, and how easily you can put on the townie act. And not being able to identify town behaviors I picked up on in the last game because of an intentional gambit you are pulling further makes just blindly trusting you hard to do.
All this to say this isn't me scum reading you, this is me begging you to give me something, anything to work with so I can town read you lol
