If you make effort cases, you're trying too hard, and are thus scum. If you don't make effort, you're scum. e:f;b

I only ever get lynched as scum or town because people convince themselves I'm scum before opening the thread.

I just spend a year establishing an airtight meta for myself so that I don't have to make effort, I just have to post a lot.

You earned your lynch that game, and you're delusional if you think it was due to preconceived bias. You're a good player but not invincible and not always on your A game.

Like Ecco or Mills, Merk can very much be a victim of his reputation. I'm surprised more people aren't, honestly.

# ? Oct 9, 2015 18:03 |

I'm a mix of both reputation and willingness to live up to it That said, merk is hilariously silly for arguing that his meta shouldn't be used against him when it helps the hell out of him 95% of the time.

it disadvantages town to lynch Ecco and Merk early anyway because they're much better town than scum players I can't speak to mills' relative skills

I'm still incredibly bad at this game. I was ok when I first started, mainly just lucking my way through, but really only 1 out of 7 cases I make are actually correct. I'm horrendous at reading people. On the other hand I post a lot and genuinely do try I just don't know what I should be looking for, find evidence that makes sense only to me, and I to top it off I don't care enough to try to correct these things. I just like playing with people I like. I think I'm generally more successful as scum than town if only because I am always wrong either way. I'm just really bad at end gaming as scum if I'm the only one left or with other players who're also at my skill level.

Kashuno posted:People who make big long effort cases are scum. Rarity posted:Trying hard is for chumps. Most mafia players are turned off by effort cases, you're more likely to get what you want from being assertive with succinct cases. I dunno, I almost exclusively deal in effort-cases and I'm usually read as town. Regardless of if I'm right or wrong (or lying), I find cases to be stronger when the train of thought that led me to the case is presented in full. I'm always aware that people might skip/skim over my walls of text, but if a case is strong it usually holds up over time. I took a two-month break from Mafia and this discussion is making me want to play again.

I am without fail, the most anti-town player in any game I play. It's easier all around if you just assume that if I'm scum if I haven't been lynched by Day 3.

Everybody thinks I'm scummy all the time. This is because I am scum IRL. I tend not to get executed though.

I like being 3P. None of the pressure of being scum while also not really caring too much if you are wrong in your cases.

I like 3P because (at least the times I have been 3P) you don't have teammates so you have nobody to let down. You can just gently caress around and if you die, you die. No big deal. It's kind of like playing a way better team in any sport. If you lose, you were supposed to lose. If you win, it's hilarious and awesome and cool, regardless of if you actually earned it or not.

I want to play a 3p at some point because I think it'd be fun. Being scum is pretty fun, but after two times I liked the second time better because I was sort of solo since section 31 and keane were lurking pretty hard.
