Yes, people have their own meta on other people. But it is known by EVERYONE that mw ate's as town and doesn't as mafia. He told everybody this, it's been spread by enough people, so basically once 3-5 people clear him in a game, he's basically confirmed town. It's basically "vote him, if he ate's, we have a clear"

I honestly don't see the problem with using ate. If he only ates as town, then whenever he's maf he's screwed. If he ates as mafia too, people will catch on and his plan won't work all the time. People need to learn meta is BS, and learn to play using facts within the game. In fact, I would argue that everyone who plays this game uses outside game influence. Even in this example, those who've played with mw and know his style of play are inherently using information outside of the game they are playing. OGI in regards to meta is the dumbest thing because literally EVERYONE does it. We all make assumptions, it's human nature. If I see someone do the same thing 3 times in 3 different games, I'd probably assume he's going to do in the next game.

You need to change how you play and what you say in game, and stop consistently sticking to this meta that you've built for yourself that makes winning easier for you. It is okay to use ATE, but you can't say that you're using it to clear yourself, and that you only do it as town. that is the OGI and that is the problem. Please work on improving your play and removing this from you game. Thank you.

I've read your bin, mw295. I think the problem here is that you don't really realize how big of an issue your play was causing. By claiming to only use ATE as town, and never doing it as mafia, you make yourself a very easy read and can clear yourself based on an out of game context. This overuse of meta in your gameplay, so much to the point of having to say it in numerous games to try and clear yourself, is clear abuse. I don't think you really did this too intentionally, but your overuse of this meta and how you went about it is problematic, and it creates an unfair environment for your competition. That said, I don't think you cheated, but your overuse of meta allowed for you to become too easy of a read, and it was always very clear. You need to stop trying to metaclear yourself every game, and try to play more with skill. Clearing yourself every game by doing or saying a few things that you never do as mafia is not fair. I cannot allow you to win your trophy this round.

haha damn
