Mafia 46 - Ace Attorney - GAME THREAD

[Squigs44]

Eleven Vanilla Townies should have received, word for word, the following message:



You know who you are!

Please explain the purpose of this post. (Serious request.)

I refuse to answer that. I guess I had to post something as my 2nd post without any reads.

Maybe you should get some reads then.

Slight scum

[Squigs44]

@Chippe was it really necessary to clutter the thread by quoting all of the roles which are already found in the OP?

Do you have anything to post that will benefit town?

[Durga]

So who is actually scumreading Flavius out of all the people pressuring and suspecting him? I see no votes.

I have stated, quite clearly I thought, that Flavius is currently my top scumread, but that I do not think that a vote on him will benefit us in solving - he has already shown that he is feeling pressured.

this is a strange take because we're only a few hours in. are you protecting him

Why would you refuse? It would be helpful to sort your alignment.

I'm liking Squigs's game start.

Many new players all blending into one for me at the moment.

Prado is back! I don't remember a lot about how he plays, I only remember he is very easy to catch when he is Merlin.

Flavius and teacon being so scummy is kind of awkard for me given last game. @teacon, what's your take on Flavius? @Flavius, what's your take on teacon?

I will probably miss most/all EODs given the time.

Merlin??? Did I miss a game of avalon or something

[Carl Tuckerson]

Squigs, I butchered a quoted response to you a few pages back. You might have missed it.

What did you mean when you said that Flavius “was reading people as individuals, not thinking about the game as a whole”?

Back when there were 7 people in the Pacifist game. Ah, the nostalgia. We played twice and I drew Merlin both times. We won the first time though.

[Durga]

Gotcha.

I don't know. Neither Squigs, nor Squigs's Dude has a patent on giving unexplained reads. But I get what you mean.

I want Flavius to come back and tell us more about his list because I do feel like that list should help us sort his alignment. It was a surprising piece of work. I just want to hear more from him about why and how he did it before we pull it apart.

this tunnel focus on flav's one post is VERY town balki fwiw (which isn't much b/c he's probably crafty enough to replicate that but still)

[Percy Williams]

So vote him then

I tend to use my vote early for pressure or to make a point. I think Flav already has enough pressure. Besides, his greatest crimes right now are being defensive and lying. Townies are defensive and lie all the time. What you have to do is look at why Flav lied and why he is being defensive.

THANK YOU

To clarify, as I read that last post I made, it sounds like I scum read you.
I don't.
As a cornered town you get very defensive. (Feel free to remove your omgus scum read of me now)

What did you mean when you said that Flavius “was reading people as individuals, not thinking about the game as a whole”?

Reading people and paying no heed as to how many people are on the scum team, not considering what a team composition would look like, etc

I'm not Squigs but I think the context of his original post explains that well enough

[Durga]

if mafia have a day chat then flav is scum

Can you please stop what you're doing and tell me right now without looking what you believe the mafia roles to be? Like, right now.

i can't remember - something about an assassin, and i assume there's a hooker.

I kinda touched on this in a response to Balki, but I can elaborate a bit more.

If Flavius was solving the game as a whole, he would be asking the question "Which 6 people are most likely to be the scum team". This would give him the correct number of scumreads in his reads list, and he would be looking at not just isolated posts, but interactions between people, defending, distancing, bussing, etc.

Reading people as individuals is focusing more on reading them post by post and not caring about how they interact with people. You sort someone's alignment independent of your read on other people. This is how someone could end up with too many scumreads.

Scum are much more likely to read people as individuals than solve the game as a whole.

What? You are not a spectator in the Pacifist Diplomacy game? I hear everyone who is anyone on this site spactates that game.

[Durga]

Can someone explain to me why Chippe is spamming the thread

Also kinda weird that Balki + Squigs were asking me to list what roles I knew and then Chippe copies+pastes them all. Don't know what to make of that though

I don't post anything that doesn't benefit town.
