…ugh, so like
I’ve been playing for a few years at this point, and also taking college classes that tend toward psych, philosophy and law at the same time
And I’m at the point where I kinda hate how reads are generated in mafia?
I’m intentionally avoiding just spamming the thoughts into ongoing games cause it’s not going to make it any FUN, me sitting here and telling everybody their learned patterns suck but like, I am trying to apply what I’ve learned to my own stuff.
Granted this is easily going to be influenced by personal bias, human memory limits, and etc; but far as I can tell most “consensus” yeets are because someone said something a majority of other players either disagree with or profess to. Not general behavior, cause that requires casing people and that’s hard and “System 2” is lazy and hands work off to “System 1” all teh time.
And people always disagree in these things regardless of general skill level, you don’t just like, see everyone homogenizing their opinions on stuff as you go up. In fact at earlier points you tend to see MORE groupthink than at later ones.
So to stop spamming those same thoughts into the thread at everyone else’s play; I’ve been applying it all to my own play by intentionally avoiding those tendencies whenever I spot them. Just because I disagree with someone doesn’t mean they’re mafia, ESL people need more looking at because languages do things very differently (and that’s a good thing), and snap judgements tend to suck.
