UNVOTE: Satisfaction.

There's a case to say that I should leave my vote where it is, but cutting day one too short could be pretty bad for town. I also get town vibes out of Satisfaction.

@Noraa 109-112
That's fair & noted. It wasn't my intent to accuse you. It was a straight copy-paste of my notes. It's full of guesses.

Noraa, I think that you're overthinking this.
In post 110, Noraa wrote:But I get really pissed when people saying I'm pocketing ^^
If at any point you're friendly to anyone (you in general, not you specifically), someone will make some sort of comment that you are pocketing. Pocketing is not an insult and shouldn't necessarily be seen as AI, frankly. Being polite to someone or agreeing with someone is bound to happen (and should happen) in every mafia game. If you give your thoughts on lots of stuff, eventually you'll disagree with the person you're "pocketing" and everyone will see that you're not trying to buddy up with that person.

If Arthur is scum, then Satisfaction isn't and vice versa.

I’m happy to answer that, but I’d like to hear from Egix first if you don’t mind.
Hmf. I mean I'm happy to wait for Egix to answer, but why do you need him to answer before you can answer? A wee bit odd.
I wanted to wait because I don't think Egix actually finds my intro to be scummy. I was waiting to see if he would say that himself. I thought he was scumhunting. After his response, I feel less confident in that assessment.
The least that I can say is that I would've just chosen someone else to rvs-vote, had I not thought so.

You've probably just done the scummiest thing yet in this game. Please explain why I shouldn't transfer my vote to you. You put Satisfaction at E-1 and not even a reason? You're practically begging to be scumread.
Oh, I am an idiot for not counting votes.
Regardless, I sheeped the quoted section. Please also remember what I said earlier:

@Clark I just finished reading Space. Tough break. Is there anything you wish you would have done differently in that game?

VOTE: Bluebell For Feryland!
That sounds a bit robotic/awkward to me. This is Satisfaction's first game, so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. Does sound like it could be a noob scum, I'd be suspicious if it wasn't his first game.
Mundivore, what are your thoughts on this?
Totally NAI. I don't think a person who would say 'I am town aligned' in their first post as scum
wouldn't
say it if they were town.

Personally, I find this post is more AI to Arthur than it is Satisfaction. Maybe feels like fishing for an easy wagon. Very weak though. Measuring scummieness versus townieness on a scale from -100 to 100, I'd say I currently put Arthur at -2.
It is a bit awkward, but it is not a good idea to wagon someone who exhibits this behaviour unless you catch other scummy behaviour.
So yes, Satisfaction is at E-1. Sorry.
Sigh, I was hoping you wouldn't be like this after last time.

You're playing super similarly to how you played in Newbie 2027. You were scum in Newbie 2027. I'm trying so hard to give you a blank slate here haha.

This is a weakness of mine for sure. In my first game, a player was scum. In my second game, that player played the same way and I tunneled on them and led their lim on day one; and it turned out they were town. So I'm going to try to be really conscious and upfront about my inability at times to separate players' alignments between games mentally.

I like using meta to get reads, but I feel that sometimes I use meta in order to justify my existing reads to myself rather than create new ones. Also meta can be super time-consuming if I'm reading through whole games that I didn't play in and it seems to me like it gives me diminishing returns.
