Is this your attempt at doing something?

Did you play in any of the previous games? And if so, you think that's had no influence on his opinion of you?

Re: The 2015 Mafia Championship: Game 6
I played Day 1 of Game 1. We've since played a lot of video mafia together and a turbo or two on this site.

So you'd rather not be lynched Day 1... hmm.

Pretty sure this falls under the 7for7 fallacy.

I think it shouldn't make a difference, to be frank.

I've heard of them. I do have an account on MTG, but I never managed to be active enough to join a game.
So take what I said with a pinch of salt, because I'm working from a vague memory of knowledge on them, but I believe that the point stands all the same.

I'm conflicted. You have a wolf avy, which unsettles me, but people who have a crush on Taylor Swift can't be bad.

Re: The 2015 Mafia Championship: Game 6
Well I've been playing mafia for over ten years and I have a very high clearance rate for town so I mean you can call it a fallacy if you like but at some point I just accepted I am pretty good at grabbing town intent.

Re: The 2015 Mafia Championship: Game 6
Whilst sticking to first impressions and never letting go is probably not the most +EV line to take, I thought it worth mentioning (mostly for self-reflection later) that based off the first 100 posts I'd surmise the following:
Banks - town
slendy - town
fontisian - mafia

But that doesn't make you right or infallible. I respect that you have a strong grasp on the game, better than I at least in all likelihood, but we are in a Champions Game here after all. For all I know, you could be scum trying to get a little town cred onto your side. So I am not just going to take you at your word, all respect intended.

From personal experience, no. Not a scum tell, but I don't have it down as a town tell either. I put that under metagame.

You get that this is why I'm going to lynch you, right?

Cool. I actually have the qt where he goes into detail on them. If you're interested after the game ends, let me know.

Achro isn't scum, but you might be.

To be fair, I never asked you to. Just noting the legitimate thought behind it because you questioned it and then noting why I myself am confident in my own read. What you do with it is up to you.

I dont particularly care for her looks (although they're definitely not bad by any stretch), I mostly just admire her for her ability to produce music that infects my basal ganglia and forces me continually press play/stop myself from changing the station on the radio in my car.
I dont know how she does it, but she just keeps setting one tarp after another and I come back every time.

Achro, would you like to be my soundboard this game? I do much better when I have one. What's your opinion on Ratchet's responses to me?

Re: The 2015 Mafia Championship: Game 6
On that note, Cue is buddying Achro hard enough that they're very unlikely to be knowingly alignmed.

No, true enough there. I get your reasoning, don't get me wrong, I just wanted to convey where I'm at with it.

Dont remember, I kind of have this guage/threshold where at some point I feel strongly enough about certain players to state my read on them (regardless of the accuracy of the read).
Those players met that threshold for various reasons. Perhaps by the time I'm all caught up I'll have a more definitive answer for you two, too.

She also has a music video where she falls in love with and steals a man from herself. It's beautiful.
