Pseudo Intellectual Strategies

about 6 years

So I decided to bring up a topic that I ran into when playing a ranked game. It was the idea of roleswapping. So what is roleswapping? If you try roleswap, rs, roleswapping, or any combination of the following, you will notice that the game doesn't automatically underline the word with a dotted line that normally appears when you type blue or omgus. The reasoning behind this is because role swapping isn't considered an authentic part of epicmafia.

If you're pseudo intellectual and your parents pay people money to have them tell you that you're actually good at what you do, then you might actually believe that role swapping is a good idea. So what's the problem with role swapping? Well let's explain what role swapping is to begin with. First, out of everybody in the game who has no idea who anybody else is, apparently innocents have a magical six sense that tells them when to pretend they are a role when mafia can easily do the same and not be counter claimed because the real holder of the role will "believe" they are roleswapping. Rather or not someone role swaps serves only one purpose and that's giving mafia the potential to claim cop or another important power role without being counter claimed and thus making them look more credible than the power role.

What if you don't role swap? If you don't role swap and some communist decides somehow that they're a genius if they game throw, they won't be able to use the excuse of role swap. This is legit the only reason role swapping is a term that exist right now. If you go to town of salem, throne of lies, trouble in terrorist town, space station 13, murder, or any other dongaronpa, you will likely be killed and eventually banned from the game. Basically role swapping is like when someone randomly ask in a bar if someone named Mike Roach is here and a random stranger says that's him just to mess with you without being serious while the real Mike Roach walks out of the restroom later. It's an assumption that only mafia are trying to role fish and not villagers. It serves no purpose, just like two phase motors.

Nice TED talk, but when will TED listen? That is a questions hundreds maybe thousands have been asking for years. As one who appreciates the vast knowledge given to me on the World Wide Web* (*Excluding China, North Korea, and Russia) it's hard to come to terms with others on the internet as to what is and what isn't acceptable. On one hand, if town has complete nerds who stick to the format and don't stray away from the meta, then of course you claiming cop is going to look very scum and will most likely result in a policy lynch. On the other hand if you have people who know what they are doing and can tell who's town from a mile away, then Roleswapping might work. In any case you could just make the argument then you're hypoing cop and hope that town takes your word for it. At the end of the day it's a gamble of winning the game, getting a Kudos or two or getting reported for gamethrowing. Personally, I don't see role-swapping working to well on lower ladder of comp game. What are your thoughts?

Roleswapping is amazing, don't be a contrarian. As long as you can read and the other person can too, it's a great way to win.
