Why?
She would want it as town, and make a pretty noticeable effort to form a base that townreads her and will vote for her. That lack of any effort at forming a base (and her explanation for it: Hyena and I suspecting her) is suspicious to me. Anyone town should be on a strong offensive, and that's what her offensive in this format is what I think we'd see. It isn't what I'm seeing from her, I'm seeing some posturing offense and way to much of a defensive mindset. It doesn't fit.
“I’m not seeing exactly what I expect to see from nutella thus she’s scum” isn’t particularly compelling to me, tbh. Would you not expect her to go for the gun as scum? Like, isn’t not going for the gun unexpected for her as either alignment?

Idk it just seems uh....flimsy.
I could see her go either way as scum, because it would depend on her team. I wouldn't expect how she goes after it to look quite the same.

I don't disagree. My point is he isn't very good at it, as it applies to this game and the optimal use of the gun by the town.
What is the optimal firearm strategy?
The person who gets it doesn't particularly matter (today. a civ is likely to get shot regardless of whether town or mafia hold the gun), outside of being someone who can be trusted to use thread consensus on a handful of names and choose from that sub-group.

I want your 3-5 to answer whether I'd trust you with the gun, because I want thread consensus on 3-5 people and you're around and building that is more important then who specifically gets it. I trust you, regardless of alignment, to go choose from the consensus, so I'd be fine with you having the gun. I think Duskfall getting the gun is absurd, because I think he's made it pretty blatantly obvious he can't be trusted to listen to the thread at large, only people who fit inside his box. He wants to get the gun and also surround himself with yes-men in how he carries out using it. And while I can see him as town, that's also a great way, if he gets the gun, for him to wind up shooting me (or some other town he goes off and chooses) and then also being mis-shot for carrying out the mis-shot down the line, when the group runs out of leads and inevitably turns on him.
I explicitly said that I would not hero shoot more than once

You are equating me with having different scumreads than what other peoples have with wanting only yes men and not being trusted

Do you think not agreeing with thread always makes someone untrustworthy?
I think you're asking the wrong questions by such a huge margin that it's painful.

No. I'm saying there's too many variables for that to be a useful insight into the mindset of how the the mafia could/should be playing.
So you put forward the argument that mafia don't want the gun

Nutella disagrees saying they do

And you are now saying Nutella is wrong because there are too many variables to decide if mafia want the gun or not?
On a general trend, no, I'm not saying mafia don't want it. My point was always knowing their intent as a collective has too many variables.

But, and this is the relevant bit, I don't think nutella specifically is trying to get the gun. And in her specific case, I think that's indicative of her being mafia.

Are you suggesting that the mafia team can functionally block each lynch by simply poisoning the player we give the gun to? I interpret this rule as saying that the poisoned player can't be given the gun the following day, the day on which they are poisoned. The game would be broken if the mafia team had a mechanic to prevent every single lynch from going through.
No. I'm suggesting that in general the town should be giving the gun to the most townread person. Using their teamkill on the most townread person at about half the time is one of the more obvious and direct strategies I can see the mafia using for how to determine their kills.

You're obviously right the mafia can't block the kill. N1 the player who shoots will have been selected D1, and the mafia will poison someone which takes effect D2. Both the N1 shooter and poisonee can't get the gun, because you can't shoot twice in a row (for the shooter) and they'd be dead (the poisonee). And so on.

Because being directly responsible for killing a civ is never a good look.
Assuming someone is scum for having a bad read is never a good look.
Not being a good look isn't the same as assuming they're mafia. But if the shooter gets 4 choices to shoot from the thread, and shoots a civ, and then later one (or two) of those 4 turns out to be mafia, that would make re-examining the shooter necessary.

Civ deaths are always an inevitably, but making no effort to mine from those deaths is just wasteful.

Why are you and Hyena constantly pushing the narrative that I don't want the gun when I have repeatedly debunked it? I'd love to get the gun. I'm just skeptical that I'll get enough votes, precisely because you and Hyena keep pushing this narrative. Talk about imposing incorrect intentions on someone. :rolleyes:
This is a good point actually.
It isn't. Saying she wants it is not the same as making an effort to get it. Being resigned to not getting it because 2 people have said she isn't acting like she does want it is a pretty defeatist attitude for someone who wants it.

And you know all of that, and it's the second time you've blatantly misrepresented what I have said; the first being when my talking about the mechanics was somehow trying to control what other people are doing.
I hope my last post clears this up a little but I am sorry if I've misrepresented you -- I was posting very late last night and was very much not eloquent and having trouble putting my thoughts into words so I think I mis-articulated some things, particularly the idea that you were trying to "impose" anything on anyone. I didn't mean it that way at all, just a looser idea that you were trying to apply your way of thinking to someone else's content in a way that didn't mesh with their original intentions. I'm not trying to say that your approach is wrong, just that it was misapplied to Mac's approach and I originally thought that you were nefariously trying to make him look bad out of nothing, but I can see that you may have legitimately had that interpretation. I don't know. I'm undecided on you now.

And sure, I was trying to push you as a candidate for shooting. But again nothing is set in stone at this point of the phase and now that I'm not screaming that you're "100% scum" I would appreciate the same courtesy. I was pushing my strong read at the time, which is what I believe townies should do. I was not trying to control the narrative in order to ensure a misfire, as you are insisting.
No, I'm not dropping you as a candidate for shooting. But I also was never in the group of wanting a fixed candidate. I'd want a minimum of three choices that the person who gets the gun is allowed to choose from, with the understanding if they stray outside that they got shot next. This early on expanding it to more like 4 or 5 because of how conflicting the different reads will be though seems best. Either way, you'd be the top name on my short-list. Along with Mac. Sloonei and Funnygurl to currently round it out.

Self-killing makes zero sense @Johann.

We should give the gun to someone with a subset of players they're allowed to choose from to shoot.

If they go outside that, they got shot next.

I think it's better then deciding on a specific player because that keeps mafia from being able to control the conversation easily.

And at 13 players, 10/3 split... Assuming the gun always gets used (no ties, but in most cases that should be easy enough to avoid since we can hammer)... We can only afford like 4 gun uses on a civ? One or two more if we get 1 or 2 of the mafia mixed in with that? Right? It's too early for me to be mathing. But it's a general point.

Then once we have a baddie killed, players who had them in their subset but chose not to shoot them can be looked at more in depth. Plus that's a way to try and force the mafia into bussing if they do get the gun.
this is boo's first post and it's basically stating the obvious about how the game works. imo it's fluff

Yes, because she's mafia and I'm an easy mis-shot, and she knows it and is going balls to the wall trying to make it happen because if she doesn't I'll be gunning for her until she gets shot and she knows it.

You're acting like that isn't information right there that the town can use to inform later gun-useage.

Nanook is mafia.
I’d rather higher chance to shoot mafia than “get information,” thanks tho try again some other time
Right... except you're actively doing things that do not increase the chance of actually getting a mafia on N1. At best you're arguing for things that would keep the odds at the level of random, at worst you're sabotaging the town.

Can you back this up? I don't see prior allusion to your read of him in your iso.
He seems to want to shoot you. That sounds good to me rn.
So, Boo, did your vote for Nutella reflect a townread on her, or did you just give her a vote because you wanted Mac to die? Also, now that you know I'll be shooting Nutella if I get the gun, does that mean you scumread her now? And how does that affect your read on Mac, if at all?
I don't believe in townreading. It's nonsensical BS people make claims about and then think they're right on, because, *gasp*, yea, obviously you're statistically going to be right most of the time, there are more town. Kind of how the game works.

I wanted to vote for her at that point because I didn't especially like other places votes were going and thought she had one, but you'd already moved off her. Plus I thought she'd consider shooting Mac, which is something I would've been okay with (still am, but less relevant now).

She'd make my shortlist of people to shoot if I got the gun, currently, yes. So you wanting to shoot her specifically works for me. It doesn't affect my read on Mac, it's too early to be looking at connecting people as teammates.

NANOOKTHEGREATANDFEARSOME wrote: Mon May 11, 2020 10:23 pm Fwiw it’s not that I’ve decided who I want to shoot and haven’t told anyone, I just haven’t decided yet.

Although I also probably wouldn’t say, this game is sort of inverse where scum hunting is better done at night.
I don't agree with that. Doing it at night leaves to much space for the mafia, if a member gets a gun, to time it out where they can later claim they killed based on the thread at x time because they wouldn't later be available, or whatever else. If a short-list of names is decided on during the day, we get: a) anyone who goes outside of that looking really bad & b) if one or more mafia is on the shortlist and someone doesn't kill them (and also hasn't been poisoned by the time a mafia who they could've chosen is killed), they look really bad.

ah yeah that's true. maybe something @boo could look into (being able to set more specific poll times)

for now we'll just have to go without the poll timer, which we've done before so nbd :)
You just needs to set it using hours instead of days.

You're not great at math, huh? "doesn't matter cuz my towncore is big enough" = "if a single one of my scum reads is wrong [and spoiler alert: at least one is], following this would 100% lose the game. If both are right [nope], but my towncore is wrong, following this would 100% lose the game".

Or you're bad and think everyone else is terrible at figuring out odds?

something something towncore, something something if I get the gun I'll shoot you, something something casual mention of someone who hasn't even posted but I am saying is either 100% town or mafia. Actually, no. Strike that. They're the secret independent role that isn't stated in the roles. Probably? But I don't know, because reading host posts is apparently for nerds, so I haven't done that.

Smogon has a pop up to tell you if there are new posts if you are in the middle of writing one which helps
we have that too? if you try to post when there are new posts it takes you to a preview so you can read up if you want but I usually just skip through it lol
Pretty sure there is also an auto-refresh, it's just that's it's set to 2 minutes. Or I grabbed but have not yet installed the extension and it defaults at 2 minutes. I'll look into this evening.

Re: Corrupt!? Mafia (PREGAME)

I got my PM and do not care when phases start/end.

Self-killing makes zero sense [mention]Johann[/mention].

We should give the gun to someone with a subset of players they're allowed to choose from to shoot.

If they go outside that, they got shot next.

I think it's better then deciding on a specific player because that keeps mafia from being able to control the conversation easily.

And at 13 players, 10/3 split... Assuming the gun always gets used (no ties, but in most cases that should be easy enough to avoid since we can hammer)... We can only afford like 4 gun uses on a civ? One or two more if we get 1 or 2 of the mafia mixed in with that? Right? It's too early for me to be mathing. But it's a general point.

Then once we have a baddie killed, players who had them in their subset but chose not to shoot them can be looked at more in depth. Plus that's a way to try and force the mafia into bussing if they do get the gun.
