why do we play with alts? It's not so that the old hands can hide from each other, it is to make it more difficult to read one another. Not to mention now everyone can see you post somewhere else in your regular account and wonder why you're not posting in this thread if you lurk for instance.

Sure, it's not always as easy as that. Some of the oldies pick each other out right away, and in some games that has gone a bit overboard. Yet, we still have alts for a reason.

People who've played a few games with you will know how you play, fool!


See my last post. Fool.

I've always been told that you shouldn't go throwing out your alt around because it leads to meta, and it is preferable for game-related decisions to be based on what happens in the game.

It shouldn't matter. I don't conciously play differently when I'm in an alt than I do when I'm out of an alt.


and you think that makes it easy to guess the alt right away? Does that happen often? Have you ever read the spoiler threads following a game?

*sigh*

That post doesn't address my point, fool. If someone knows how you play with role X, and you play that way, then they may draw the conclusion that you have role X again.

I know, and I understand. However, I don't lurk, intentionally, when I come on I post, and you seemed to have alt-guessed me already, so it seemed pointless to hide it. The bottom line is, I don't care that much so I sorta revealed. Although, anybody who hasn't read that game actually has to go to ModCraft and see who I am, and I know at least some people who don't care to do that. I'm comfortable with y'all knowing who I am, so lets move on with the game now, shall we?

Alt guessing leads to meta too, which can be worse if its wrong. For instance, I think I know who Korlat is, but if I'm wrong and I treat him like I'm right, then I could end up fucking over myself and my team.

Normally people seem to get it backwards anyways. They think I'm inno when I'm scum, and they think I'm scum when I'm inno. Its quite obnoxious, cuz my inno always gets lynched.

do we really have to go back to being strict about the use of meta in games. This is a big nono, so stop doing it. You've been called out committing an error, can't you accept that instead of making it worse.

you should be.

if this was my own computer, id change the avi to be something less Sauron-like.

I do believe my point is valid. Shadow claims to have no one with a grufdge against him. Only logical explanations is that hes either
1) mafia hitman, who doesn't really exist outside his job
or
2) like any normal human being, he has aenemies. but his happen to be dead, because he's part of the mafia.

in either case, he should be lynched.
