Drel: So instead of just accepting you’re being scumread, try to do something so people stop doing so?
Why do you think I'm sitting here throwing irritated spammy posts back and forth with you guys? This is not at all my style and you're frustrating me greatly with your expectations that I should be playing the way you do. It's been two freaking days since the game opened and I guess you expect me to have it solved already or something. Do you not have lives? I'm not an aggressive hyper poster and if you just scumread people for being more patient, deliberate, and thoughtful, you're going to end up being wrong an awful lot.
Drel: None of your posts really come off as irritated until this one and the next one. It's an eight-person game, with hoods. You can very easily be using your hood to sort your neighbor, unless your neighbor isn't posting in it, which is what seems to be the case with Patchwork too. At this point of the game, with one non-presence entirely in KT, Lorne just outright refusing to play for the most part, Furtive admitting that losing two newbies is rough for him, and Sky being around sometimes and not really saying a whole lot each time, there isn't a lot of room to play patient and deliberately, since that's half the playerlist not really doing anything. Factor in you, and that's now 5/8 players not doing anything meaningful in the game, and I'm willing to bet that's applying to the hoods too, which means the gamestate's not going anywhere. It doesn't matter we're barely into d1, the gamestate isn't going anywhere in a game where town should realistically be sorting people frequently and making reads often.

Drel: I mean, I’m barely reading the game compared to Kori and Grim, but the best I can tell from what I’ve read is you think Furtive scumslipped, and that’s about it. You gave reads when asked for them and that’s about it.
Now, you have been talking with us and Patchwork, and that’s great, but do something *more*. Sell us on your reads. Do something.
So can I just say "vibes" like furtive did to explain his scumread and you'll think that's fine and dandy now? Like, what? I think I've been plenty more substantive than a good few people. Kitty is obviously the non-presence in this game, not me. Sky also seems pretty wishy-washy. Drew hasn't done anything but eye Lorne's townreading of patch, decide that I'm on some Grand Crusade against furtive while you think I'm not even pushing him, and give other reads when requested. furtive has, like I said, not been much of a presence, and even he acknowledged it when he talked about losing two newbie games getting to him. Lorne is obviously playing I Don't Care What You Think style and giving nothing and people seem reasonably accepting of that. Heck, I don't really even know that patch has been very substantive- sure they post a lot but it feels like it's basically all yelling at other people to Do Something and drowning out more thoughtful conversation.
Drel (+Kori): I never said anything about liking Furtive's "vibes" read - and quite frankly, it's a shit read. I don't think reading someone solely because of vibes is good. I'm not playing the game enough to actively decide something like that. We don't care about Lorne because Lorne has admitted a point where they'll start playing: a dead mafia. Which, if that doesn't happen by the start of d2, we can do something about it. It's called killing Lorne.
I'm willing to admit that some stuff can pass for today, because there are vigilante shots in play, but I think realistically, we should be saving some for later nights, unless people are certain they're hitting scum. In a game where at least half of the playerbase isn't doing anything in the main thread, that's kinda abysmal. I get hoods detract attention away from the main thread, but that implies to me that everyone is realistically thinking their hood partner is town, which is most likely incorrect.
I also don't see what "thoughtful" conversation Patchwork is drowning out, when once again,
half the fucking town isn't doing jack fucking shit.
As for you being substantive, it's not very hard when once again - people aren't talking. Most of your ISO has been shitposting, plain and simple.
