Yeah the election is great, though I have no idea what it would have looked like if it went like it was supposed to and Hawkeye won.

This level in the phone game I'm playing may be... politically charged.

Plus I'm finding it kind of difficult to navigate.

Well there's your problem: you're picking out scum. Pick out innocent townies and case then instead. Also, I think you may have ruined me MMM by having my first ever game have 12 hour night cycles.

MMM Whatchya Say posted:I'm having a mafia problem. It seems like I'm doing an ok job picking out the scum, but I get shut out when making cases on them. Look at the casework that you found compelling in previous games and try to determine why you found them compelling. The best cases, to me, convey the strongest reason for why someone is scum in a very succinct manner. The long, flowery cases get overlooked because people are lazy. You need to capture and persuade your reader in 1-3 short sentences/points. I also like to use pointed questions at people to try to get them to either review or comment on my case. This will also help you determine the alignment of the players that you prod. It's a give and take though; you can't be the guy who only asks questions of others without putting out his own responses to their questions.

Not saying you do this but in general don't spam the thread with an epic megacase that takes up the entire screen as your method of getting people on your side, peoples attention spans are short, and they will not digest it. I find you are better off posting your thoughts as they come up, and not letting them pile up, and just be genuine, and explain why you feel the way you do. Good townies will recognize this, and give your case more attention than some mega post of quotes and lovely blurbs about why the posts were scummy, or an essay that is 5 paragraphs long or something

Also the more obviously town you are the more likely that town will take your thoughts into consideration, don't be a scummy player and then come out of nowhere with a case and expect people to be swawyed

Looking at the last two games I was in, is the big mega case in one of them (WIFOA), but the other had more fluid points (pecan pageant) I'll try to be less long winded though.

You have to be able to separate your belief about an unflipped player's alignment from the cases that person makes. You also have to separate your belief of an unflipped player's alignment from every other belief you have about an unflipped player's alignment. You can definitely say things like: "I think merk is scum, but his case on JakeP is great. ##vote JakeP." "I think merk is scum. I think JakeP is scum, but probably not scum with merk. ##vote JakeP."

Good townies will recognize this, and give your case more attention than some mega post of quotes and lovely blurbs about why the posts were scummy, or an essay that is 5 paragraphs long or something As someone who is very clearly long-winded, I usually try to (a) understand my thought process[/b] before I post it, so if people challenge me on my posts I can justify them (b) directly engage with the people who I think are scummy so there is an obvious thing for people to reply to (c) bold the important parts of my megapost if I think it's so long that people won't read it (I actually always forget to do this but I think it's a generally good idea) (d) be aware of the presence of scum. If your giant case is right and being dismissed, it might be a sign that you're right. Conversely, if your giant case is being agreed upon by almost everyone, it means scum is cool with it and you're (likely) wrong.
