The Last Airbender is actually a great movie
We saw a similar arrogant play a few seasons back, but this is on another level... I don't like it one bit (neither the shade thrown at our community like he's so good to us).
Who was the one that started comparing him to blarg, because I was expecting something else.

Welcome to the community, @empressdonna ; I hope to see you playing with us soon :D
Thank you! I look forward to playing in the future :)
Geno: what about his style exactly? So far he seems pretty focused on how many games people have played before and a wildly overarching meta that may not even apply. So I dunno, I'm still waiting for shit to happen in this. I expect tomorrow will be fun in CW when we get the end of day vote flurry.

Hmmmm...
Being in a spec chat is already enough to see that people go around the truth

Yeah, I was extremely disappointed with the effort day 1 in my game. People didn't seem to care too much.
The day phases in the two games were totally different.
Yeah, cabot, people were missing tons of things, big screaming obvious things. As ever, there's a huge focus on meta and people make assumptions. But I was stoked at the way things got rolling. I like a good shitpost phase now and again but they started working at least. I'm hoping that night actions set off a chain reaction that makes some people reassess - but it'll depend on what finally gets decided and if people wanna keep tunneling.
cabot
Why.
Well my main issues were the meta argument against gog and letting a lot of low posters just slide by. Meta arguments for someone who has played a single game is just mad.
Also, there were a good group of players who barely posted anything, and they were never considered to be serious lynch contenders. Instead it was rac, who was pretty solid. Gog who was maybe a bit too restrained for my taste, though present and trying to engage, and DCPat.
DCPat's behaviour is probably the one of the three I'd have considered. He was certainly reading most scummy to me. I don't like votes to sit randomly out there, so I would've probably voted for him, wasn't particularly convinced of his soft claim.
think about how much power LP had in that day phase. What had he done up until the end? almost nothing.

Care to elaborate on this btw?
I mean, you basically called him ignorant based on level of experience. While that can be strategy, it's not the kind of thing that is standard in our community, which tends to be a little more cognizant of the actual humans involved in the game as humans, not game pieces.
Not to defend meta, but to defend meta, DCPat had played two games to Gog's one and he brought up that, yeah, he did stay cool in Werewolf even with a red check. I don't know what happened to him out there; he just melted. Or to put it a different way, Sawneek's tunnel on Gog was limited and didn't allow for anything but really the very first observation.
But missing that a few people just disappeared too was kind of mindboggling. Terraforce and Verelios disappeared, for one, and so did Stan, and while that's standard for Stan, as usual, people focused on whomever was making noise at the time rather than looking at bigger pictures, which allowed LP to sail in and kind of play kingmaker. It'll be interesting to see what happens d2.
Trying to pressure a player into slipping up if scum. Seems like a viable strategy to me.

It's not a good strategy when you pressure a player to the point they don't feel like playing anymore. More than a game to win, this is a group of people trying to enjoy themselves.
Minutes before I posted that, I talked with Apollo and he was very upset. At least 3 times I saw you downplaying a player's skill because of their experience. That's what I mean when I said that people were not having fun with your comments about them.
If someone doesn't want to play because someone pressured them very lightly then I think that is a personality issue, in my opinion.
And, if that is a belief shared by your community I will simply not play here anymore. If you cannot pressure people without them being upset, they are too emotional. It is a game. I can respect some people just want to have a powwow and get too emotional with a highly competitive player. If that's the case, I can simply not participate here. Not a big deal.
Anyways, I am interested to see how many of my reads were right day 1. I had Comrade and salva as town (salva as town vanilla).
Ex machina I had as town also.
Have to relook my scum reads but I know jubjub was one I had as scum.
And y'know, generally - more than just you, Corrim - I have to say I am sick to death of people using "competitive" as a reason to discard the humanity of others in gaming. It's a tired excuse for people not being willing to step up and understand community efforts. There's competitive and then there's simply not giving a shit.
I do not know what you are talking about. Seriously not an ounce of it makes sense. I joined here not to argue but to spectate the ongoing game. You are throwing out nonsense. I am not responding to it anymore. Have a good day.

I can just as well say that thinking that that is "pressuring something very lightly" is a personality issue. That shows you are not willing to listen to the voices of this community, that are different from the one you came.
Even after I said that Apollo was upset by what you said, all you had to answer was that he was "too emotional", with an air of superiority, and that's not the kind of behavior that we want to foster here.
I have already said I will not play here anymore. I do not know what you are trying to accomplish here.
It doesn't matter. I play mafia enough places as is. Just wanted to try it out here to see how my reads were on people I had no experience with. I mean, I was accused of insulting people for asking about doctors being able to self-save here for good sakes. It is clear everything is considered insulting here for some reason.
All in all I would give myself a B in the game. I drew a nightshot as Town Vanilla which is a huge plus. Tried to provide content to draw reads on players and also so far my reads were decent (though that doesn't mean much for overall reads, though I only had one relatively low activity day to make them). As Town Vanilla I would have liked to have forced more information from the game to make clearer reads more readily apparent to the game or have gotten a scum to slip up.
That is enough, all of you. There is no need to continue arguing about this. Corrim's style of aggressive play has clearly upset people, and Corrim himself has acknowledged that he has no intention of playing further with us. The matter is settled. Let's drop it.
If it continues, I will start removing people from spec.

What else besides Gamefaqs? I'm kinda curious.
Mafiascum and teamliquid.net at times. GameFaqs on a few diff boards over the years.
Ah, I didn't know the first 2. Well then, I guess we will see each other again on Gamefaqs.
Aye aye. I don't play often anymore but whenever yinz sound the horns, I'll help fill your games. Lol

Hi everyone.
I have successfully skimmed both games. My uninformed opinions are Console Wars feels like a lesser game with not a lot going on. I guess Nintendo is the SK. I don't have much of a read since I don't think I have played with very many people in that game (and 2 are dead RIP Nomad and Salva)
Buffy feels more familiar. Interesting day 1. But Town kind of just fell into the Rac lynch with little reasoning. I have some thoughts about scum but I will wait until the night flips so I don't look like an idiot.

I agree a lot. My pride was hurt a lot to see game with me in it outactivitied by another game.
Nintendo being SK to me makes a lot of sense. I have considered a cult also.
It is extremely hard to balance a cult though, without a scum team let alone with one.
Also I feel flux and exmachina have to be town. Exmachina had an air of sincerity around him day 1. If he is scum, then heaven help me I got fooled on him. Flux I kind of think just has to be town for town to have a chance, and if he is scum, why put in the effort he has as scum to look town when it is far and away more than what most of town has done itself anyways.
So I played Berserk and as scum I was super careful what to post and over thought everything. With this game and my role I at least wanted to generate some discussion around me and my inexperience combined with that idea is basically what went wrong.
About the soft claim, I'm pretty sure I would have died without it and I couldn't be there to defend. Plus I kinda hoped for a doctor, so I could've had massive info. Ive been visited by multiple players, but I can't tell who off course.
And I honestly think people followed the nerrative against me to easy. I can't be that bad as scum can I?

The problem with soft claiming as town is there is a lot more chances scum picks up on it than each individual town member. Maybe some town does but town cannot freely discuss that outside the game. If just one scum player picks up on it, they all know and can plan accordingly. That is why as town I try to point out openly all softclaims to the game so everyone is aware of it.

i don't think i can read arguments about how i was a coaster anymore
