ITEM.This looks like Connor possibly trying to elicit more information about Flavius's early reads list that included 3 accurately identified mafia. Maybe he was hoping a more nuanced read would downgrade some of the starker scumreads Flavius had made.connorcompton wrote: ↑Mon Jun 03, 2019 8:46 pmAny element of nuance there? 7 Mafia members sounds interesting.FlaviusAetius wrote: ↑Mon Jun 03, 2019 8:42 pmSquigs-Town

Have any rough probabilities?
But I keep going back to whether scum-Flavius would scumread 3 teammates without even townreading one of the others... I just don't buy that as a scum-Flavius strategy. He thinks he's clever, and this doesn't seem clever.
ITEM. An old saw around here is that only scum joke about being scum. This isn't a joke. But it's in the same vein.connorcompton wrote: ↑Mon Jun 03, 2019 9:02 pmWhether I do or don't I'm going to have to pretend I do..teacon7 wrote: ↑Mon Jun 03, 2019 9:00 pmHey fun. I like Coup.

Nice to see I'm not going to be completely looked over.
By 'the genre' I mean general deception games, games which heavily involve lying to others. (Werewolf, Resistance, Secret Hitler, and Coup, to name a few)
I hope you like reading.

I understood 'I hope you like reading' to mean in general, in this game, since I imagine I will have to do that a lot to keep up.
ITEM. See, Teacon, this is why you don't fucking answer the question for the target. Because it looks like you were honing in on "only scum have to pretend to read the thread," and it looks like Connor was about to fumble that answer before you provided him with an out.connorcompton wrote: ↑Tue Jun 04, 2019 3:26 pmVery correct.teacon7 wrote: ↑Mon Jun 03, 2019 9:46 pmI guess I was curious about your use of the word "pretend." I'm understanding from this that you don't like reading in general, but that you're going to try to keep up in the thread. Is that right?connorcompton wrote: ↑Mon Jun 03, 2019 9:38 pmI may have misinterpreted...

ITEM. Interesting that his townreads on people we now know to be town are pretty firm, but (assuming Connor scum) his scumread on Balki is hedgy and fake scumread on Teacon is also hedgy...connorcompton wrote: ↑Tue Jun 04, 2019 6:18 pmJesus Christ, catching up has taken me way longer than expected but I didn't want to start commenting until completely up to date. I feel so refreshed with knowledge. (opinions)
1. I am almost certain Carl is town
2. I think Squigs likely is aswell.
3. I am genuinely very glad Chippe has been able to reintegrate back into this game. I thought the end was near close to the end of my catchup.
(I don't think I need to say he is clearly town)
4. 'Lurkers'. While I think it is quite early to assume Mafia from someone who's hardly posted, bozo's seeming lack of care to post literally anything of importance makes me highly suspicious.
5. I have no idea about Flavius.
6. From my fairly unimformed opinion, Balki seems scum, don't read too much into that though.
7. I think teacon is Mafia, annoyingly I'm finding this hard to justify, but discounting Chippe's actions as scum, and eagerness to lynch lurkers are hard for me to ignore. So I am going to have to respectfully ##VOTE teacon7
Also, at this point, Balki is pushing Flavius hard, and if Connor's scum, it looks like he's trying to ignore that so he doesn't have to take a position on his teammate's obvious mislynch.
ITEM. Connor has a big post on p. 65. Some points:
---He says he "trusts" Balki, so that's a progression from his guess of a scumread 24 hours before. In responding to TrPrado's question (in this same post) about why Balki seems scummy to Connor he says, "He doesn't anymore. I don't really know how I got that impression."
---He scumreads Teacon for pouncing on Teacon, but then in the next point simply calls it "weird". Why the shift? That's not even hedgy, that's just inconsistent.
---He tries to defend Moscow against accusations that MF is lurking by pointing out he got on a plane. (In contrast to Bozo, who was around but only casually participating. That's not how "lurker" is usually used here, but that's not the point.)
So that's Connor's Day 1. I'll do Flaviu's Day 1 now for parity, and then try to get to the rest of both.
