NFL Mafia [DP1]

Also, he isn't unique in being hard to read. Earth is hard to read because he posts so little. Speedrace is famously hard to read. Why single out Whiteflame?

I would much prefer to lynch in Speedrace/Chris, preferably Speedrace. Whiteflame is fun to play with. 

A player who is good enough to win as mafia, I'm sticking to my guns with this, it's best to take out a potential unreadable threat now than down the line with less 

All of that is even more true of Speedrace. Why single out Whiteflame?

Because of how perceptive and deductive whiteflame is, he is really good at defending himself when he is mafia too

Rereading the DP. Writing down a random observation so I don't forget. Early on Whiteflame and Speedrace were exchanging casual remarks about their personal lives. If they were mafia together, it would seem more natural to do that on Discord. Maybe that's just me. Probably doesn't mean much.

Which is also true of Speedrace. Why single out Whiteflame?

To be clear, I'm not defending Whiteflame (so far there hasn't been any accusations anyway). I just don't want town to take a lazy lynch for no good reason.

I mean I am lynch-happy af, this game goes too slow anyway. But if it's in oro/WF, definitely oro. But I definitely prefer to go Speedrace/Chris here. 

What's the rationale for Speedrace/Chris?

Nevermind, I misremembered

Maybe it's because whiteflame was mafia in Luna's game and I'm scared af because whiteflame acted in the same way, it was a narrow lynch too, nearly didn't vote wf

It's a strong feeling I have whiteflame is mafia, motivated by fear because whiteflame is such a powerful defensive player

Is Ragnar usually this inactive ?

That's refreshingly honest. I remember I got burned by Lunatic in my first mafia game. I like him, but I don't trust him a bit in mafia.

My scumreads are hard to explain tbh but too much flourish. That plus I don't like how he seems to play the game through WF/you. Kinda like how you gotta welcome a vampire into your house. 

My scumreads are always going to sound dumb. 

I've never played with him. I just like his posts in the forums, so called him to mafia. 

Speed or Chris? Also, I don't quite get your meaning.

No worries. Mine always sound dumb after the game because I'm usually wrong.

Interesting. Well I’m writing up my reads list so don’t go to sleep

Speed. Chris is mostly POE. Speed is mostly POE too tbh, but it feels like he only talks to people who talk to him. I really don't know how to explain the read. Mafia feel an inherent pressure in posting in the DP. Every post is another post to give them away. The read is out there for sure. 

It's 3am and I got work in the morning. I napped heavily today, but I'm brushing my teeth and won't be long on afterwards. 

Now that I reread his posts, I see what you mean.

I just really dislike his first post. He addressed the town by a response to WF. That seems to hide behind a little bit. 

This post by Pie is interesting, since badger never said anything about going to sleep. Probably it's nothin and Pie just remembered what time zone badger is in.

Pie sends me a sweet goodnight message every night. 

To quote Pie: "lol"

I’m his honey

Totally unrelated note: I believe that is the first time I have ever written that acronym in a post, not counting copy-pasted quotes I'm replying to.

Lol

I refuse to use it as a matter of principle. It would, of course, be futile to ask me which principle.

Lmao is also a good one

Alright reads list time. Keep in mind this is after rereading the entire DP, so stuff has dramatically changed:

Pie - Confirmed Town

SirAnon - Lean Town - Mostly a gut read. I like the activity and questioning. Seems like a genuine effort to scum hunt. I think last time he was caught as scum because of a character

Speed - Null - I don’t see many posts from him. He’s one of the better players, so it’s rather odd that he isn’t pointing things out more. His only real contribution imo is his reads list, tho it’s pretty vague.

Greyparrot - Null - I don’t think his role claim coming after character is affiliation indicative. He’s done it in the past and was town.

Barney - Lean Scum - Dude’s a moderator and is inactive. He’s obviously lurking. The only contributory thing he’s done is the dashboard, but that’s all he does. He asked a question to GP. Idr if GP answered, but if he hasn’t, why hasn’t Barney followed up on it. It seems like an attempt to be scum hunting but not really.

Oromagi - Null - I don’t like the fact that he was lurking at the beginning. Since then though he’s been himself. Going for the dashboard and figuring out possible themes. The two sides cancel to be null.

Whiteflame - Tilt Scum - I don’t like the fact that at the beginning, WF said: “Pie is engaging in some light scum hunting and giving some reasonable reads.” The only read I had provided was Oro being inactive and hating being scum. Not really a read tbh. His pursuance of GP also doesn’t make sense. He’s been in games where GP has role claimed after he’s character claimed. It’s not affiliation indicative. Or all of this is overthinking and I can’t read WF to save my life lol

Badger - Lean Town - He’s being himself. Sticking to his guns and not really moving. Once in a while he chimes in with a town read. I also haven’t seen him play as scum yet, so I wouldn’t know the difference. But as of now, everything is similar to his town game.

That2User - Lean Town - The aggressiveness is the biggest read. I think I called her out in a previous game for this aggressiveness, but she was town. Still seems like it. As scum, I think she’s a bit more laid back and not as responsive, if I remember correctly.

Earth - Null - Not posted enough. Doesn’t seem like his scum play from when I got him in that one game, but hard to tell with so little posts.

Danielle - Null - She’s been relatively inactive. I also have a hard time reading her cause I got burned in that one game where she was scum. Probably gonna have to wait for results or theme analysis.

Chris - Tilt Town - There’s been some fluff here and then, but he’s been providing reads pretty often, changing them when new information comes out. He’s also focused on the behavioral aspect of things, which is nice imo.
