I will NOT be updating this Wiki any longer.
I started playing on a site called Personality Cafe. In my first game, I subbed-in in Feb of 2015. I have played in at least 10 sites. I originally had the goal of playing on every site that played Mafia. That dream died when I found out there were over 900 sites that play this game. I have played in the Mafia Championships on Mafia Univers twice. My ideal length of day and night is 72/24, but I have not come across any sites that play that length for either the full game or with any kind of regularity.


I started playing on a site called Personality Cafe. I have 16 games played there, most of which came before 2016. I am coming up on my second year playing; I started in feb of 2015. I have played in at least 9-10 sites with at least one post. I originally had the goal of playing on every site that played Mafia. That dream died when I found out there were over 900 sites that play this game. Currently I would like to at some point play more games on Mafia Universe, but the drawback is that I do not like the length of game days and nights there. My ideal length of day and night is 72/24, but I have not come across any sites that play that length for either the full game or with any kind of regularity.
I have learned that experience is really nice to have to fall back on. Even when you don't see how your experience is helping, if you are anything like me, someone who is very prone to messing things up, it shows its merits a few times in most games. I have been able to navigate who I am as a player and know where I stand on a few issues that are somewhat controversial. I also feel that experience is good to fall back on for observational tells from Town and Scum. Sometimes you just notice something and note the alignment of the player. And sometimes it happens again, which leads to a tell.


I had a very, very rough start to my Mafia career. My first game I was in I was mod killed. I made a very stupid mistake of thinking that because I didn't put my role PM in quote tags that I could copy paste it. It gets worse. On the site I was playing, I noticed that after I had copy pasted my role from the QT that I was given, I noticed that there was a certain color that was not a default color in the colors for text. So I encouraged others to copy past their flavor character with that shade of text. Luckily no one else did it or it could have been mod kills all over the place. In my second game (same site) I was mod killed in that game as well! I had noticed that the thread was open (not closed) so I thought I would make a post about what I thought about something - mistake. I posted before the host made the SoD post. This was my second mod kill in 2 games. I was not off to a good start. On top of all this, when I started I had a ridiculously Scummy meta. My first 16 games I was in I was Lynched 8 times Day 1! But guess what? I kept playing. I found the game absolutely fascinating and couldn't get enough of it. I have progressed as a player like you would not believe. If I am Town, I don't have a good chance of getting lynched. I think I have been wrong two or three(?) times in Mylo and Lylo. problem is, I usually don't make it that far into the game.
I have been diagnosed with a severe mental illness that occurs in ~.3% of the population called Schizoaffective - Disorder Bipolar Type variant. There is a lot of stigma surrounding mental illness in the world. It's no different than a broken limb - it's a body part that needs attending to - it just happens to be the brain. I am not ashamed of this because, after all, I have no control over it. I think telling you this will allow you to see how/why I seem to be a bit odd at times. I also tell you this in case you think something is wrong with you and you don't want to get help. Getting help is the first step towards solving a problem that doesn't self resolve. If you need help, please seek help.


Some more personal things about me:
I get Eliminated early as both alignments a lot. I do however have a fairly good record if I make it to end-game.
I am not ashamed to admit that I have been diagnosed with a serious mental illness that occurs in ~.2%-.5% of the population called Schizoaffective disorder - depressive type. I am currently 30 years old and I am on SSI. I am open about this stuff prolly to my detriment because most people have a stigma toward mental illness in general. I consider myself more intelligent than the average human being. I would guess my IQ ranges anywhere from 110-130 based on numerous IQ tests I have taken. I am prolly just a level below genius level intelligence from my estimations. This provides an interesting combo - having a mental illness while being relatively intelligent - it allows me to see the world in a perspective most do not see. For this reason, I have been called "weird," "odd," "strange" and people tend to say things like "I don't understand you." Rather than getting down on myself about this, I actually consider it a strength.

Note: I have been trying to play around with the idea of trying to survive longer. This is done (for me) by not posting as much as I usually do. [Redacted]

As Town: Don't lynch Town. Don't vote Town. Vote your Scum Reads only. Don't get sucked into FPS (Fancy Play Syndrome). Evaluate, Reevaluate. Push stuff that is Scummy; If that means you end up Town Reading that player along your push, then good, you can look elsewhere.
 
As Scum: Lynch Town. Don't put looking Town above lynching Town. Scum Theatre FTW only.
 
== How I read people ==
 
I get reads by using logic and inference on what seems likely mostly. My accuracy as Town just keeps getting better the more I play. After a while you can tell what is actually Scummy and what is just bad Town and you can distinguish the two fairly easily after some time.
 
I also have a whole toolbox full of analyzing players but I think most of it is just Mafia Theory over it working super well in practice.

About Me

I started playing on a site called Personality Cafe. In my first game, I subbed-in in Feb of 2015. I have played in at least 10 sites. I originally had the goal of playing on every site that played Mafia. That dream died when I found out there were over 900 sites that play this game. I have played in the Mafia Championships on Mafia Univers twice. My ideal length of day and night is 72/24, but I have not come across any sites that play that length for either the full game or with any kind of regularity.

I have learned that experience is really nice to have to fall back on. Even when you don't see how your experience is helping, if you are anything like me, someone who is very prone to messing things up, it shows its merits a few times in most games. I have been able to navigate who I am as a player and know where I stand on a few issues that are somewhat controversial. I also feel that experience is good to fall back on for observational tells from Town and Scum. Sometimes you just notice something and note the alignment of the player. And sometimes it happens again, which leads to a tell.

I have been diagnosed with a severe mental illness that occurs in ~.3% of the population called Schizoaffective - Disorder Bipolar Type variant.

I get Eliminated early as both alignments a lot. I do however have a fairly good record if I make it to end-game.

Style Of play

I'm a weird person. That comes out in how I play Mafia as well.

I have had many people tell me they do not follow my reasoning. I have tried explaining myself more thoroughly and that seems to work better.

The more someone tries to Scum hunt me, the more I look like I am Town, generally speaking.

I have gotten lazy in my way of playing. I don't often say everything that is on my mind regarding the game, but reduce it to a few things that I feel are of immediate concern.

As Town, I am an okay Scum hunter and a leader. My Town game is unmistakable. I do, however, try to match my Scum game to my Town game which is an ever-evolving process.

I have gotten more comfortable playing as Scum (which is an ongoing process).

I have felt my style of play is very much a power player. I post a lot, but I try to keep giving different or unique insights into what is going on in the game. I generally do have some unique insights into the motivation of players and I sometimes say things that other people do not agree with the significance of what I have said.
