Steps to MVP
- Plug and pressure -
1: Assume people are roles
2: Try to figure out if people are those roles
3: If they don't fit they aren't (repeat from step 1)
4: If they are then lynch
- Why you do dat? -
1: Scum talk about their role more than other roles.
- Oh hai! -
1: People that enter days with general greetings and speaking of feedback are pro-town (more often).
2: People that believe their information is something to bargain with are pro-scum (more often).

You can generally find these players being the Town Leader.
Another Town Tell to take note of is players who seem to provide a rational read on what other players posts. These players typically make a "wall of text" which can contain Town supportive information and can be used, sometimes, to further attempts to scum hunt. These players also tend to shine a light on players that lurk or post less than they typically should be.
There are a few players who have taken up creating a wide amount of communication and push others to talk by giving them a task of reading other players or giving their opinions on night actions and feedback, as well as role-list possibilities. These players offer up their own theories about the games proceedings and give others incentive to do so as well. Anyone who typically seems to be pushing for more and more communication, while giving their own, can be given an alignment of town, but remember that scum may undertake these Tells to shroud themselves as Town.
Be on your guard and remain vigilante however
Good luck and Fair Hunting to you,

If you don't see how this ties in directly into mafia then see it this way: a troll will pick a # 67-100, Claw will pick #1 (thus has a weakness against troll actions).
Depending on who has what role will determine what action you should take against him and how much you should trust that person.
Watching these lessons now. Yayap, this was an awesome amount of work. You've got some other great posts and notes scattered throughout the site and my hard drive I'll compose into one. Definitely sticky worthy "Yayap's FM Lessons"

Bump. To people who play anonymous setups, please read the part about how to be and remain anonymous. A lot of "anon" games were seriously not anonymous, to the point where nobody actually tried to be anonymous anymore because nobody was anyway. And no, I'm not only talking about the last game, which was actually not that bad on the anonymous side. It's really a general thing that needs to be developped when you play an anonymous setup.

My honest opinion is that impersonating someone will usually fail at some point for any given reason and reveal your disguise.
Which is why I should do it since I just told you not to. Oh wait, now that you saw this, you'll know that I'll try it and therefore I shouldn't. But then you would reach that conclusion and therefore I should. 4 layers of Wifom to confuse you. Now you shouldn't know how many layers of Wifom I'll go before deciding what to do.
