Game Ranked COVID-19 Mafia Game Thread

[Luka]

See her vote on post #168 last game, and my and ultra's posts commenting on it in #313 and #314

This isn't near the scale that #123 is was my philosophy, but now that seems silly to read off of w/ one game as a sample size lol
neh

 

[Luka]

Yeah my read was probably silly and doesnt outweigh the wolfy things the slot has done

 

[Sparkles]

this isnt the gotcha that u think it is, this game is 16-2 rn most players bound to be town

That’s true; fair too say most scum players know this and can then freely town read someone for valid reasons only too recruit them later on so it doesn’t even matter that they townread them.

 

[Sparkles]

I guess i just overexplain things then.

 

[Sparkles]

I rolled you up as soon as I entered the thread and saw your awful posts last game. If you're scum then you're gonna be preoccupied with me and I could see you thinking this is gonna throw me off or put me on the back foot. Meanwhile what's your motivation for voting me as town? You say you expect me to deliver substance, but you voted me before there was even anything substantive to comment on. So clearly you aren't trying to actually read me here. What does that leave?

The thing is; i know it wouldn’t throw you off; all i’d be doing as scum is insanely go against the person who essentially got me caught and put on defensive early last game. Sounds like suicide as scum. I’d just leave you the fuck alone.

Me on*

Unfortunately, needlessly risky and ill thought out plays are kind of your scum MO

 

[Sparkles]

Getting suspected early for trying too hard is also my town MO

 

[Sparkles]

I think ya’ll should consider HOW I pushed Fuji last game versus HOW i’m pushing CP atm. It’s hard too replicate this much aggression/uncertainty with TMI

 

[Sharter Holmes]

I've been throwing a vote down basically page 1 last few games and they were all votes on scum (sparkles last game, Alex game before that, Watson game before that). I'm on a bit of a roll actually

Damn. It's almost like you are what @Ultra wants to be

 

[Sparkles]

I like Luka’s indecision on his read of me; that feels like something that would be also hard too replicate with TMI.

 

[Sparkles]

So town lean on Luka.

Like how he’s wording his posts as it relates to his read on me feels genuine.

 

[Sparkles]

This seems like a very instant and quick judgement for just OMGUSing you, as you yourself said
Specifically the confidence with a read lol, feels more like something I would say as wolf if I didnt know how to naturally do things

I dont think her initial reason was very bad, given it was RVS and a gut reaction to vote that is like, whatever
Not sure on her 2nd one but I kinda dont wanna switch this early from her being town -> her being null / wolf since I dont wanna lose my credit if I'm right lmfao (basically a bad reason)

The main problem is I see the logic. If I get out of a hard scum game and somebody just pushed me, I'm going to think of pushing them the next game because people traditionally TR that "being fearless". Your 2nd post was also kind of ironic, since it's a nothing burger of a vote (just like yours fmpov, largely lacking substance) and you later said your vote on him was RVS. It's like, just feels a bit gross? It was also very hyperly overexplained, which may actually be towny lemme check

Okay, sparkles town lean kinda locking that read in despite the things I don't like from them. Just comparing this side to side with last game, feels as though they're both a lot less static here, more kinda like "I'm town and I know I'm town" and they do kinda overexplain things which I didn't see there. Can see me being wrong tho

This post sequence in particular makes me lean town.

Hi GAD. Any thoughts on me; Tempest, Luka?

 

[Luka]

This line of thought is pretty much why I think you would do it, it makes 0 sense whatsoever. Scum loves pushing SPKs, it allows them to get free TRs off of virtually nothing

 

[Luka]

It’s hard too replicate this much aggression/uncertainty with TMI

My 2nd problem which is what I brought up before is this agressiveness. It's super duper easy to fake, just do it. That may seem really weird but agressiveness, while at the same time meekness take, here is super easy as scum and a free way to gain TRs for virtually no reason a lot of the time

 

[Luka]

It's also why your line of defense here is just kinda pingy? I disagree with every single point and it's exactly why I would do it as wolf. Your job as wolf isn't to like, avoid making enemies (even though a lot of people think it is) or to be correct. It's to be town read, which your line of play accomplishes in an average PL from my experience (I literally did it 2/3 of my last wolf games, I can link them if you want proof)

 

[EkkoLoJinx]

Yes I've seen it tossed around in plenty of games doesn't mean I know exactly what it is

dont think so. i checked weebs and u havent asked about it a single time despite seeing it being tossed out alot on pages that u posted in. how come u havent asked about it there? think u know exactly what it means

wadya say yoho? shud i skip the next couple of dialogues and request a claim here? u not pulling a back to back on us are ya

 

[Sparkles]

PL?
