Also, grib why you townread someone based on the RQS?
Okay looking back on it you did tr someone because they asked for it but I got the impression that your third tr was more serious.

Pointy and Nero are town, I think.

Why do you feel the need to mention this? Creative didn't ask you if you were rolehunting, just how many power roles you'd generally expect to see in a large normal. This seems like an especially defensive answer to a relatively harmless question.


I'm sorry you feel that way.

Would be interesting if there was a SK or Vigilante.

As town, she's a fan of firing off questions, her play style is floaty/carefree, she isn't afraid to get in people's faces, and she uses pet names and cutesy metaphors a lot.

In contrast, she tends to lurk as scum and has trouble consistently answering questions directed at her.

Once you've completed a town game with her (and I believe she is very likely town in this one), you'll see what I mean.

fake edit: Give the flower time to blossom. I'm just calling it as I see it.

74 seems desperate for some motive or another.

Klingon, mind giving some thoughts on the game instead of just popping in to answer the random questions?

I don't see it as "desperate" as much as "discussion inducing." I see where you're coming from but I don't agree.

Rubicon, you break my heart.

Boonskiies has not posted yet, is he being voted because he is doing his usual llama dance of lurkerness until faced with the edge of a cliff?

Blowing currently irrelevant things out of proportion isn't discussion inducing more than it is misdirection. Conjuring up arguments out of nowhere isn't going to further our town's interests.

BagelS also instantly assumed Rubicon's VT joke claim was legit earlier, so I'm viewing their behaviour based on that as well.

Elusive, would you say Grib's meta read of you is accurate?

I've had about 6 hours sleep in the last 3 days, so I'm just putting in an appearance right now before I crash. Tomorrow (Tuesday) I'll post a bit more.

Why are players voting for Elusive if they think she's Town?

Why is boons not dead yet?

Castle's Grib vote isn't horrible but a Boon vote would be better.

TBF, I actually disagree with you here. I mean in an 18 player game there's going to be like 4-5 scum but there's absolutely no way to tell how many scum prs there are unless town knew the set up.
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Ricastle,

Yes, Grib's read of me is accurate. The only thing I would add is that sometimes scum and rarely town will see my fluff as an easy mislynch target and then things can turn very aggressive and or set me off on a tunnel. Oh and moodiness in general.

Rubicon's joke claim is a little strange but he has his tells as well.

Why? Boonskiies is one of those frustrating players who I keep reading as scum because he's lurkery and\or like a silly fluffy llama but then he ends up being town. What is the difference between town Boon and scum Boon and is there a way to even tell?

That doesn't give us much to work with. I think even the best (or worst) players have slight difference at least between their scum and town games. In the newbie game I was in, the player was fantastic but on research she was playing her scum game and the "voice" was all wrong for her town game so she got caught that way.

yes but lets stop the discussion about his meta stop here for now.

Ehh, it's still very early. Basically everything is out of (mostly) nowhere at this point. I thought that response was a bit odd so I called it out.

Kitz, you haven't weighed in yet. What are your thoughts on the game so far?

Whoa whoa whoa. Doesn't meta analysis fall immediately when the person you're analyzing is aware of it?
