[heytheregirl17]

sorry for inactivity. had a quick read through the thread, currently we are voting watchme is there a particular slip they did? also i must question why i have hardly been pushed for my lack of activity.

this feels scum and I can't put my finger on why

[Multiuniverse]

I dont like hyena giving me a d1 pass
Fight me

youre overdoing it

well i checked the area51 game and the content to post ratio was much higher so i'll take a guess this may be his tell

/vote chemist

but in his scum game it was lower?

Sorry for lack of vote counts, was cramming to prepare for my first day of school back.

Will get one done once I’m out of school

nerrrrrrrrrrrrd

Fight.
Me.

@Multi
Who’s your strongest scumread right now and why

[Multiuniverse]

@Multi
Who’s your strongest scumread right now and why

AlwaysNever for reasons i already stated

[LOLingHyena]

Okay, I know what I want to do. Let's play a game y'all.

Suppose that we know for a fact that there is definitely one scum in each of the three pairings that I gave. I want -everyone- to give who they think is the scum in EACH of those pairings.

I'll go first:
1. [Chemist and HTG] -- HTG
2. [Wabbit and Google] -- Google
3. [Virgo and Armin] -- Armin

Responses so far:
Spoiler:

I srsly don't think chem is scum obviously
Between wabbit and Google scum is probably wabbit
and Jackson scum over et

{ Chemist, HTG } -> Chemist
{ Wabbt, Google } -> Google
{ Virgo, Armin (nice using my nickname lel) } -> This is somewhat unfair since your pegging me and my town-read lel

obligatory Jacko is boner

between Chemist and htg, neither are scum
between Wabbit and Google, Google is scum
between Jackson and realet, both are scum

vig htg

soz htg

[Chemist and HTG] - Chemist
[Wabbit and Google] - Wabbit
[Virgo and Armin] - Virgo

obligatory Jacko is boner

between Chemist and htg, neither are scum
between Wabbit and Google, Google is scum
between Jackson and realet, both are scum

everyone is town in this list lmao except wabbit maybe

obligatory Jacko is boner

between Chemist and htg, neither are scum
between Wabbit and Google, Google is scum
between Jackson and realet, both are scum

Yes
No
Maybe so

didnt you vote virgo
1. chemist
2. wabbit
3. virgo

also, I'll bite

[Chem and Hey] -> Hey
[Wabbit and Google] -> Wabbit
[Jackson and Armin(?)] -> who's Armin

chemist/google/virgo

bracket 1 can go either way

even though thats kind of dumb ill bite
htg
google
no

[LOLingHyena]

Here's another way to look at the data:

{Chemist, HTG}
Chemist - Virgo, Watchme, Debil, Wabbit
HTG - Hyena, Tilted, AlwaysNever, Armin

{Wabbit, Google}
Wabbit - HTG, Watchme, polyplies(*), Debil, AlwaysNever
Google - Hyena, Virgo, Tilted, Armin

{Virgo, Armin}
Virgo - HTG, Tilted(**), Watchme, Debil, AlwaysNever(**), Wabbit
Armin - Hyena, Tilted(**), AlwaysNever(**)

* @Polypies: Why shouldn't I think right now that you are scum and that Wabbit isn't your townpeek if you're calling everyone else town?
** @Tilted & @AlwaysNever: I need you to choose one or the other.

People who haven't played yet - Chemist, Jay, Uzay, Multi, Acidic, Phone (lol), Google (play my game, mo'fo), Michael (you, too, and stop fluffing around), and Dota

[LOLingHyena]

Quick notes and thoughts about the responses:
- I'm not planning on reading into the answers from people in a pair on the people they are paired with, because I didn't specify whether I wanted those answers or not, though I do appreciate Wabbit for giving Google as answer for his pair.
- Again, @Polypies: Why shouldn't I think right now that you are scum and that Wabbit isn't your townpeek if you're calling everyone else town?
- Tilted answered both for {Virgo and Armin}. However, I noticed that a bunch of people voted for Virgo over Armin. If I look at Tilted as if he's mafia, I can see him joining the Virgo group to fit in and also answering Armin because Armin is his townpeek.
- Virgo and Armin are the only pair with lopsided votes. The other two are surprisinging split even at the moment, four vs four. I do notice though that Tilted and Armin voted with me on both HTG and Google. On the other side, Watchme and Debil voted together on Chemist and Wabbit.

[LOLingHyena]

I really don't trust hyena

not that I scumread it but like
I just don't trust him

lol, I think you say this everytime we play together

obligatory Jacko is boner

Don't think I didn't see this.

I am just going to place it here and explain it when we're allowed to explain reads again
/vote Acidic

I'll help you with this, but know that I may or may not switch to Watchme later.
/vote Acidic

bruh all the people being like "We CanT eXpLaIn reaDs YeT", this is just dumb.

seriously who cares what wabbit says

So, like, the reason why I usually say don't explain reads initially when I want people to give out reads is because reasons can often influence other people's reads in a way that's bad. So, it's always better to see who people's townreads and scumreads first and THEN see what they're reasoning is for them.

For example, let's say I'm a cop with a red check on someone. If I immediately say that I'm a cop with a red check on someone, nearly EVERYONE will probably agree with the cop that the person they checked is scum, where as if the cop keeps it a secret initially, people can still disagree which can be insightful sometimes. Of course cops and red checks don't apply to this game, but it's the same idea.

[Chemist1422]

@Hyena
HTG
Wabbit
tbd

[LOLingHyena]

w!google probably means v!et

You're going to have to explain this one to me later because this is far out there even for me. Might be useful if it's true though.

@Hyena
HTG
Wabbit
tbd

Thanks! I'll update my lists later after I get more response. Be sure to get in your answer for Virgo and Armin before then!

---------------------------------

I just had some more thoughts about the voting groups in the {Chemist, HTG} pair and the {Wabbit, Google} pair.

Firstly, while I did mention that the people voting together in both votes may contain scum that's trying to buddy up with the people they're voting with, there's also a chance that they could be town and that the odd ones out might be the scum.

For example, Tilted, Armin, and I are both voting HTG and Google for their respective pairings, but AlwaysNever only joins us on the HTG vote and Virgo only joins us on the Google vote. What I'm suggesting is that maybe AlwaysNever and Virgo could be scum with townpeeks on HTG and Google and that they felt safe to join those votes because of the number of people on them. Again though, this is all speculation.

[heytheregirl17]

I honestly don't think tying these reads together is going to do much good, if anything scum will try to blend in

[Tiltedcomedian]

Pets Laugh

I see you were amused 3x over

Im soulreading them both w but if you threatened to burn my mackerel collection I would say realet over Jackson

Also remember that realet said neither so they are functionally with me and Always

[JacksonVirgo]

Why is everyone using my nickname for realet now :c
It was supposed to be my special thing :sob:

[UzayAltay]

I really do like the uzay take as well

I'll take the time to explain the townpeeks I posted earlier when I get off work

@Uzay so are you saying we should not be explaining our scumreads or that its not important to?

TBH , I Will play my scumreads with saying I scumread X , Maybe Quoting post with no explanation , and Will only explain when X asks me reason .( from now on , I may exclude This If it is close to EOD and give properly reason. )
But Basicly , I Dont care about reasons of scumreads , at least in First place .

[UzayAltay]

I mean in this game it's impossible to find associations with other mafia, so essentially it's town vs town that wants to kill the first.

I'm going to address this in a bit. After thinking about things, I think I might have -something- we can kinda use to make association reads? But not the same kind of association reads you'd make in a normal mafia game. I'll post details soon.

I am intrigued

So, I started mentioning some stuff about it earlier when I was responding to someone, but basically, I've noticed that certain people are pairing up together and townreading each other. The ones I've noticed so far have been you and Armin, Chemist and HTG, and, to a lesser degree, Wabbit and Google. My theory on these pairings, and any others that may form, is that if any of these people are mafia, then the person they are paired with is probably not one of their townpeeks. Furthermore, if they are mafia, they probably paired up with the other person to pocket or buddy up with them. For this reason, it might be a good idea to look at who those people are accusing to be scum because THOSE ones might be potential townpeeks.

Okay, I know what I want to do. Let's play a game y'all.

Suppose that we know for a fact that there is definitely one scum in each of the three pairings that I gave. I want -everyone- to give who they think is the scum in EACH of those pairings.

[SparkingJay]

sorry for inactivity. had a quick read through the thread, currently we are voting watchme is there a particular slip they did? also i must question why i have hardly been pushed for my lack of activity.

this feels scum and I can't put my finger on why

I don't think scum!Acidic would say that last sentence from what I recall of their scummeta in 19E, so I have a minor townread on them for that.
