shitposting is fun and all especially at the beginning but once you guys started blasting off into all these crazy nuanced thought psychology battles with each other i got pretty lost and only had weak gut opinions, none of which really leaned scum
like lilith and worsty on recent posting would just be obvious townreads for me normally? but like I'm not even really sure here because idk if this just good scum masquerading
i know this sounds dumb and maybe melodramatic because that's literally what this game is about but idk if i describe it better
really don't have any scumreads rn only some townreads but im not even sure about those
but yeah ill just give it my best shot i guess. will try to pore over this on monday or tues when i have a bigger block of time
pedit: lilith I answered this twice already, i literally just voted him for fun and I didn't townread him. i don't know how i feel about him now, ill have to take a deeper look
this is kinda non game related but i've had some really awesome reads by accidentally townreading too many people
if you can tangibly tier the confidence of your townreads, and the bottom of your readlist ends up being really week/null reads, it's a good time to revisit your weak townreads and go "ok is the reason i'm townreading this person actually all that important?". that helps me bias check myself if i'm townreading people for silly reasons. it also helps weed out scum who just Post Well who i might lazily townread based on a positive interaction and stuff.
please don't despair. i'm not good at mafia, i just talk a lot.
this playerlist is definitely a "good" list. but i think we're also the types of players who are more interested in having a good time playing mafia, than in endless psychological warfare. if you're feeling like your reads are very focused on specific details, or more gut-based, please talk about them. you're just as liable to catch something we've missed as we are to catch something you've missed. perspectives are lit. so forth
