Bio

hitogoroshi (hito) has been on mafiascum.net since Feb 28, 2008. That's terribly misleading though because he don't play online mafia all that much.

hito's Forum Profile

Hito is a college student pursuing Biochemistry. This leads him to think very much in terms of information, which is helpful some times and not so helpful other times. He tends to be less aggressive than most players and do most of his scum-hunting behind the scenes. One of these days he might try to post how he thinks and acts in general situations. (is the convention to do these all third person? I feel like a loony. I'm sorry...he...feels like a loony.) Notably, he has recently discovered the power of voting and is trying to loosen up his vote more than usual (which is still less than some people).

Games

Completed:

Newbie 575, Hito VT: I was sick and replaced out D1. This game really has nothing to do with me, but I put it here for completeness.

Mini 650, Hito VT: I don't even remember playing this game. Someone else do a meta read and tell me how it goes.

Newbie 620, Hito VT: I was pretty passive here, but it shows my suggestive scumhunting a little. After this game, I took a huge break from MS and more or less came back a different person in terms of how I play mafia.

Mini 847, Hito Mason: This is how I intend to play from here on out. Try to be more free with my vote, and wall-post my logic until you're all sick of it. :)

Newbie 844, Hito VT Bah. This was at the same time as the super active Mini 847 and I just couldn't get the energy. In the end though, more energy wouldn't have helped - there was one guy I really thought was scum who was town and one guy I really thought was town who was scum. This game kinda just reminded me I don't really like playing Newbie games. :/

Open 185, Hito VT, Replaced in D2 I'm proud of this game. I replaced in a hopeless situation, and Sotty and I together turned it around for town. In the end it was up to me to pick in 3p LYLO. I picked wrong, but what are you gonna do, right.

Ongoing: I ain't gonna link to em.

Hito firmly believes that posting scores is somewhat insignificant until you've played a statistically significant sample of games (~50) and the effects of the various towns you've been in can be normalized. He does not think he will ever play that much forum mafia. (Although, fun statistic: hito has never won and has never been scum on this site.)

Words of Praise for this Quality Product

Scum-Remus on Town-Hito: "You scared the crap out of me. You had to go. Quickly. I'm sorry, but your play style made me think you were think way too in between the lines. I fear the day that I come up against you and one of us is an SK. I also firmly believe that you knew I was scum all game long. I mean, even before you died."

Scum-Vi on Mason-Hito: "hito has kind of caught me by surprise. I've been full-on flaming him inthread (his personality really, really bothered me today), but now I'm one of his strongest Town reads. I... don't know what to do with that."

Scum-Nacho on Town-Hito: "Hito, you did a freaking amazing job. I tried to make cases for why you were scum, and I literally couldn't... "
