Mafia Island Madness - Town Wins

[glow]

alek is a pretty strong townlean for me atm bc their frustration reads genuine, it's a tonal and meta read mostly but they seem to be actively trying to move the game along and the response to daniel shutting down their RQS looks townie to me

daniel is where the 'most likely' thing comes in. i've seen him ask questions to absolutely everybody's posts as both alignments so that's not necessarily AI but i don't really see why he'd place two random votes that early on d1 as mafia, and i also don't really think he'd write off alek's reaction as townie so quickly if it's wolf/town so he's a tentative townlean atm

i tend to agree on alek

but with daniel that seems shaky so i will poke.

why do you find that specific behavior towny with daniel when he's an advanced player? (voting for reactions)

i think it would be brazen / possibly unlikely for new mafia to play that way. but daniels definitely a strong player

as for townreading alek in response, not really outside the scope of advanced players either especially if you push on a town that is starting to town tell. so digging your heels into that is a bad look for mafia too

No??? You just try and play from the perspective that you are town?

So you'll have to be aware of what's considered towny in order to be considered towny. Right?

Also, a lack of you guys not answering is obviously AI especially since the person who I'm thinking about already replied.

You can get that information from the sign up thread.

no, it says it's a semi-open setup but it doesn't say how many mafia there are

Danmiel said 3 followed by Shawm saying 5 so 3-5?

Trust me on this

 

[Dinosaurz]

Alek is confusing me XD

 

[Damniel]

i don’t think alex is a wolf either so there’s my two early TLs

dan's reasoning for 3 mafia made sense for me so I went with it for this dont go SLIP WOOPSIE on me

 

[Antonio]

no

why not? You said it yourself that I should be sticking with my plans but I can't go through with it unless I get everyone's answer. So help me out by answering such a simple question.

 

[Dinosaurz]

Is there usually a percentage of mafia to town

 

[Damniel]

i don’t particularly care for discussing whether it’s 3-5 maf when setup isn’t know. We won’t know from KP so it’ll be more clear with flips

 

[Antonio]

I need everyone who is currently active in the game to answer the question, if you haven't.

like i said it's a tentative townlean and definitely subject to change, but i followed daniel's champs games pretty closely and i think he's adapting a lot of the different playstyles and tactics that he picked up at MU and applying them to this game (specifically random and unprovoked voting early in the game)

my gut says he does that as town to be more productive and solve-oriented, and to genuinely play to town's advantage and wincon, but doesn't do it as wolf bc he'd know that it would stick out bc it's not the convention here, and if he's a wolf he's also on a team and i just don't rlly feel like he'd go rogue in that way

also i wouldn't expect him to dig his heels into alek's response as sus but immediately townreading him for it as opposed to just leaving it feels townie to me

you're definitely right about him being a strong player which is why my townlean on alek is a lot stronger, but my general feeling atm is that they're town/town
