Kyoko, no worries. I won't take your pressure to seriously either. I actually got excited to get into a game and said hello before I had the chance to read through a couple past games to see how the days play out. I'm not used to RVS yet but think I have a loose grasp now.

As for your questions - I've played 3 forum games and a handful of in person games. Still learning and this is definitely a change of pace.

Vote: Yeezes


More active now! Let's hear more.

I would be interested in hearing more about what you mean by this, and how it links to the previous.

Are you talking about your scumgame, here?

I'm not even going to really honor you with a reply here because wow this is manipulative (in the bad way) as hell. VOTE: val

see here newbies, this is what we call, bad faith! When a player intentionally frames someone as bad with no intentions to consider good intentions from that person.

I was asking a question. I thought I might be misunderstanding what you were saying, because if I assume you meant "forcing people into situations where its unreasonable to fos [you]" is how you play as town, that would appear to just be saying "I play as townie as possible, so people come off bad when they sus me", which isn't really saying anything at all is it?

I was hoping you might clarify. I'm not sure how you came to the conclusion I was intentionally framing you as bad for attempting to clear up a misunderstanding I think I might be holding myself.

I am wondering now, however. Defensive, much??

Following on from that, why is it so important to you how other slots feel about you this early?

In before I am accused of OMGUS, but I certainly wasn't expecting a reaction like that to an innoculous question. I think this is a good a place to start as any.

Yes we’ve done this song and dance.

Also, I have officially reached 20 consecutive games as Town (completed). I have flipped in another one but I will not speak to that one just yet.
