I am also really too busy to play mafia to the quality level I prefer. I should spectate. If you see me in more than one game tell me off! Also invite me to cool games to spectate. I will bring cupcakes! <3
I am really behind and about to go back to bed, but Bins' explanation of her ns read, reads as a scum read apart from the last line where she calls him town. idgi.

I think it's fairly clear that I am asking about all of your previous games.

Sorry, I wasn't sure if you meant games on this site too, since you just asked about games elsewhere. But yeah, by "I've only ever played as mafia in FtF Mafia" I meant that FtF mafia is
the only place
where I have ever played as mafia, meaning I have never been mafia on this site or any other.
I do have a completed third party game on this site though if that would help you, but I had a pretty awkward role and did a horrible job at it, so it probably wouldn't be the best idea to assume I'd also play that badly if I were mafia.
In post 324, Postie wrote:Also, notscience currently only has two votes on him despite basically being scum by default unless he explains himself properly. Can we get some more people on this wagon? Preferably L-1 so there's enough pressure on him to force him to say something so that:
a) we don't help scum by stalling the game, and
b) he doesn't have time to think up and elaborate story or plan if he's scum
Yeah, I agree that ns has taken a suspicious amount of time to respond to the push. It concerns me that we need to hear an account from Bins of why ns has been absent. Why can't ns just explain it himself? What's so difficult?

She's trying too hard to look like a good townie while not really being a good townie.
This brief exchange bothers me. Why is RC's immediate reaction to "why did you put down a vote with no explanation" claiming that elaboration is pointless? Why is explaining your thought process behind a desired lynch pointless? Is it because you wanted to elucidate a reaction first?... But if that's the case, why did you change your mind so quickly and start cooperating?
To me, this looks like someone who is concerned with how they look to others.
@ Tere:
when your post restriction with RC ends, I'd be interested to hear why "RC looks very town" to you (as you put in 312).
I don't recall ever forming an opinion about wgeurts before they replaced out, so I'll have to reexamine their play -- but so far I'm not really understanding the townreads on RC.
So, Bins is making a billion times more game related comment than in 1721 where she was scum.
Whether that's alignment indicative remains to be seen.
I wanted a room with Bins specifically because I was pretty damn sure she was town but now I'm not so sure considering that she entirely evaded my radar in our last game.

I'm not pushing for anything? I thought I was pretty upfront about my notscience scumread and the fact I want him lynched ASAP unless he's miraculously able to convincingly explain why one of him or Espe is lying.
If it helps, RC, here are my reads:
Espeonage
The_Jester
herrcombs
Apricity
Tere
Bins
notscience
Feel free to ask if anything needs explaining.
You even gave yourself an out on that scumread. Yikes.
I don't. I just don't like when people are so sure about stuff without really having the reason to be.
I may be biased but I like when people are active and try to provoke discussion (especially that this game's been stalled by inactivity way beyond my taste). I've found Postie to just do that (although I have to admit I really dislike posts like her #241-#244).

Please explain what qualifies as a "strong stance".
There's nothing towny about fostering discussion while not taking any strong stances or pushing any strong viewpoints.
If you dislike anything, I highly encourage you to join me on the wagon.
It's hard to know what deserves to be called a strong stance, but it's certainly not when you say "I want him lynched ASAP unless", and I'm further utterly unconvinced by the NS wagon since it seems much more policy than intended to hit scum.
All I'm saying is that notscience isn't confscum; I seriously doubt he stands any chance of convincing me he's town at this point.

One of Espe or notscience
is lying
. Call it a policy lynch if you like, but I see no town motivation in outright misrepping the situation that was described to such a ridiculous extent.
You seriously doubt? All I'm saying? "See no" town motivation?
What all these have in common is that they're defensive and attempting to self justify. Tell me, why should I or anyone else be interested in lynching NS?
In post 180, Postie wrote:So, ns comes out and says that he messed up and listed someone he already had a PT with when listing some people he still needed a PT with to Espe, and that Espe said he was going to bring it up. The way ns explained it felt tinged with AtE so I decided to start asking Espe about what happened in case ns was misrepping anything. There were some major differences between how both of them talked about the situation - in ns's version, ns seemed convinced Espe was out to get him with this, and in Espe's version, ns was okay with the whole thing and didn't seem to let it bother him much at first.
Now here's where things get even curiouser: Espe has told me that ns agreed that Espe should talk about it, so I ask ns if he would rather Espe
didn't
talk about it. ns says nope, he would prefer if Espe didn't mention it. Interesting.
Then ns tells me Espe told him he was considering using the herrcomb "slip" to get ns lynched to check if it was a real slip. I ask Espe if that's true and Espe tells me that never happened.
I thought I made it pretty clear.
I'll ask you the same question I asked Tere earlier:
Then ns tells me Espe told him he was considering using the herrcomb "slip" to get ns lynched to check if it was a real slip. I ask Espe if that's true and Espe tells me that never happened.
If ns can't find a way to explain away this point, then shouldn't this be reason enough to be voting solely between Espe and ns today?
Honestly, notscience should have addressed this whole thing waaaay back and his disappearance feels like scum stalling in the hopes that we'll get confused in the current chaos and do something stupid.
