I mean I'm not talking about activity or mechanics discussion here, just the fact that you're doing a lot of sheeping relative to forming your own reads, whereas you mostly had your own opinions there.

To be clear I don't think anything is wrong with sheeping but it's a departure from what I've seen of you, which has only been town. Hence the concern.
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'm V/LA until Monday in case you missed that; I was being serious when I said I've only read the first two pages.
I'll come and obvtown my slot real quick when I'm back so you don't need to worry.

Oh
whoops
, I just dropped my

Here, I think that should be super helpful. :lol:

I like my neighbour, they’re really cool. Perhaps a future game? :lol:
If you're town, you realize posts like these help mafia PR hunt the doc and contribute nothing to solving the game, right?
In this game, like every game, my posting will be a couple degrees off of my wincon for the sake of fun. I can only promise not to play perpendicular to my wincon, or opposite my wincon. If that's not tryhard enough for you please ask moderation to forcereplace me

In post 852, Nancy Drew 39 wrote:VOTE: Hectic

I find that often sleeping on things tends to clarks things for me.

@Hectic, I really like you, think you’re really cool and have nothing but the highest respect for you but it was ironically one of the reasons that Auro tr Elsa that ultimately convinced me.

You seems really unhappy here, like you’re not really enjoying this game and I think it’s because you’re not town in this one.
This seems like a valid reason to scumread Hectic in a sea of invalid reasons to scumread Hectic. If he flips scum I wouldn't have Nancy down as one of the bussers.
In post 864, Something_Smart wrote:The way DDL is playing doesn't strike me as a way most people would play as scum, but it also isn't how I've seen him play as town in the past.

To anyone with meta, has he played ultra-passive and sheepy like this as scum before?
I think it feels similar to Death List and dissimilar to Magical Girls and he was town in both. It will be hard to read because sheeping is fundamentally a harder pattern to read than independent initiative, but I figure town!DDL will take whichever approach he thinks matches the day phase so I'll be able to read his play better when a different circumstance shows today or a different day.

This setup would be great with neighbor rearrangements maybe if we asked Micc super nice.
Ok let's play anti wincon

Why are you complaining about our hood when you have made not one attempt to engage with me in it? Reads to me as disingenuous posturing.

VOTE: Eddie Cane

I was speechless and bewildered at first
But the best explanation for why he would criticize someone for making role-fishable jokeposts then later DIRECTLY OUT HIS HOOD
is cogdis from rolling scum.
I don't think the cogdis on the town version of this makes a tenth as much sense unless the scumteam already knows our hood.

The hood is empty because I think hoods are where scum pocket townies and they're mostly useless. I mentioned that when Oka said it, it's in the main thread. But, um, asking me about that in the hood instead of giving the mafia two rolecop shots at the doctor would have been better????

I dont care about your read on me rn, I agree I should be null.

I would like your teammates opinions if possible. I feel like this game actually has a lot of readable content I'm going to try to digest later.

@amrun also has teammates I'd like stuff from, specifically at least JJ.

it's not disingenuous posting, Eddie, it's jokeposting. Neighborhoods have never statistically been shown to improve town winrates across site history.
OUTING THE NEIGHBORHOOD TO WIN AN ARGUMENT is the perfect example caring more about being right than caring about who is scum

Um . . . didn’t you just accuse Pops and me of being antitown for outing that we’re neighbours? He never outed you as his neighbour.

This seems like a definite.
