Is this how mafia generally respond to this in your experience? Reappearing from absence into this situation as opposed to waiting slightly longer and engaging less specifically?
I'm not here to discuss general or optimal mafia play or mafia theory on response times out of ghosting the thread.
does it look bad for him to immediately respond? Yup
should scum not immediately respond when ghost-reading thread? Yup
generally do scum respond immediately on ghosting? Who the fuck knows I haven't done a scientific study and I don't care.
All I care about is what I do know, which is that SS was reading along and responded almost immediately on being called out but couldn't find the ability to weigh in on anything at all while the events were going on and that's highly scum indicative and I want him dead dead.
Well, I think Norwee was town. That's the only thing that stuck out to me on the first read. Not for the replace-out though-- Sigmund, why don't you think Norwee would respond like that as scum?
It's always the same. When you fire that first shot, no matter how right you feel, you have no idea who's going to die. You don't know whose children are going to scream and burn. How many hearts will be broken. How many lives shattered. How much blood will spill, until everybody does what they're always going to have to do from the very beginning... SIT DOWN AND TALK!

I think town often go 'hey wait that is me you are calling out for being absent! and I am town!' and respond accordingly. Whereas mafia usually wait but...

You think I'm scum and called the thread dense knowing that it wasn't? Or you think my faculty for judging how dense a thread is is dependent on my alignment?

i believe something_smart. it can take effort to come up with thoughts about the game even for town. and if i'm remembering correctly, something_smart often takes a while to become engaged with the game.

None of the above, really. More 'I have not been engaging because thread is dense' feels less like how the thread is and more like something to say. Like difficulty engaging makes sense, there's already been shitpushing into a replacement and a lot of absence and people who are here seemingly 'waiting' for lack of a better word, but 'thread is dense' doesn't feel... right, to me.

It's not that I have tried to engage and failed because the thread is dense. It's because while stuff was happening and I was busy, I followed the thread loosely and was like "wow, people are getting serious way faster than I thought they would. I'm going to have to sit down and read this closely before I can actually interact with it."
But, I'm a lazy-ass, and I didn't feel like doing that. But I saw Sigmund's comments, and there wasn't any reason why I couldn't interact with that because it didn't depend on anything that had happened previously.

Also, if you'd like a more specific explanation of what I meant by dense-- it's that I meant the content-to-page ratio was very high. I think I overestimated it a bit, but it's still incredibly high by first-10-pages standards.

SS seems something_suspicious to me in his defense. I am not townreading VFP if that is what you're asking. You seem to be defending my suspects today. How do you feel about SS?

I agree with the scummy Poppins and anti-dense theories and find it odd that you've put more energy into defending yourself rather than commenting on the game so far when you claim you have no time. Also, why are you taking Sigmund seriously enough to feel like you have to defend yourself? Feels like you know they're town.
Lol Poppins. Also I did read and comment on the game; I only had one thing worth noting, which was that Norwee was town. Nobody asked me to elaborate on it.
Why wouldn't I take someone else scumreading me seriously? Even if Sigmund is scum, I want to make sure that other people aren't swayed by him (really, I want that regardless of his alignment). And forcing him to justify himself more will help me (and others) read him.

for the record i think that this current discourse around SS is basically completely non-effective in sorting him (although it still might be useful for other people). i think that these sorts of accusations are basically autopilot for SS because in my experience some random thing fairly similar to this gets thrown at him like every single game.
