[quote name="@Stanari" date=2016-12-06 18:10:56] You know the point of a read list is to have distinguishable opinions, not to be absolutely certain, right? No one means "this person is absolutely 1928392% guaranteed confirmed town" when they put them under a town heading.[/quote] Yes, I do know that. However, I am unable to compile a real list since I usually go through everyone's posts and reread what they've said, how they said it, how it's influenced people, etc. etc. Since I am unable to do such a thing atm, I have a general distrust of just about everyone, even a little bit Zombrose because I have this awful paranoia that there's an alignment converter out there which is why someone resurrected them. [quote]I respect your distrust of town leaders - I have been eaten alive by town-leading scum before - but at some point you need to read people independently of "this person is town leader". Though. Would you trust me any more if I'd lynched scum? Lol.[/quote] Hm hm. I think I'd trust your intuition a bit more if you had lynched scum. I generally think your ideas are good though, but most of my distrust in you is simply for the fact how so many people very quickly rally behind you. I mean, sure, they bring up their own arguments against the person so they're not sheeping, but it feels like they're only looking for evidence against the person your suspecting the most. It's a bit worrying. [quote]I have only anecdotal evidence for this but D1 lurker lynches hit town at abnormal rates. (IMO it's because they're really easy to manipulate.) Your take on replacements is actually, I think, antitown though. If they can't be replaced [s]that's the mod's problem[/s] that's what modkills are for. [/quote] I could calculate the statistical probability of hitting an inactive townie D1, but it'd have to wait until Saturday when I'm done with my Religion project and my Human Geography packet. However, I'm basing this just off the population of this particular game. So, assuming there's 6 mafia floating around here, one per each team, there was a 6/30 (or 1/5) chance of hitting someone with a mafia role no matter activity level. Taking into account the five people who've died and the one role that [i]shouldn't[/i] have changed so they're still town and we wouldn't lynch them, there's now a 6/24 (1/4) chance of lynching someone with a mafia role. That's without me taking previous games into account and ignoring the not yet existent sampling distribution (I'm actually going to make one for a town lynch D1 though, I swear). The anti-town stance I can also see. However, I really like Journey's games and the last one ended due to mafia inactivity so I'm a little paranoid that it'd happen to this game, too. I'd prefer to prevent such an occurrence from happening again.

@Journey
I loved Outbreak. <3 I was v sad that I didn't get to see it thru to the end.
