That changes nothing I've said.

[Shirou]

That changes nothing I've said.

It kinda does but I've no intention of being nitpick about it, I understand your position and only replied a bit snarkily to it because your reply sounded a bit snarkily in the first place.

General vibes:
-> don't care about Gypx wagon.
=> My gut intuition tells me whatever Cakez is doing is wrong.
-> Andante wagon could be spicy
-> Blake not acknowledging my existence is deeply troubling. How can i pocket her if she won't care if i exist.
->Shirou is the biggest danger to me in being pocketed but im probably gonna let that happen and not care what his alignment is at some point so im mentally preparing myself for that now
->Norwee gives of town vibes from interactions with me. I don't think we will work well together this game though. Need to form alliances away from Norway
-> Noctlyne triggered me and I won't be able to figure out alignment until i probably figure out who it is, won't even attempt that now.

Did i forget anything of importance on these past 10 pages.

The whole gambling thing seems like something scum would probably hesitate to engage in, I also don't actively dislike much of what I see of the more active talkers here.

Of the less active posters, this here feels most like instant noodles for a good town post, so I go with this:

VOTE: Laplacian

14 is scumposting.

Confirmed, Masons with Kitty & Cakey.

VOTE: House

We have a 3 person mason team claimed who've all confirmed each other and you're voting one of them? Unless you're suspecting they're a scumteam gambiting hard, this is a really weird vote.
VOTE: Zookeeper

Oh my fire, wouldn't you look at that. we've another jokester here.

You don't need to give up on alliances already Fire.
We can both agree to hate on Andante if you wish.

[Malakittens]

Good chance that Lapla is an early town read.

[NorwegianboyEE]

Actually that sounds a bit mean.

REVISED

We can both agree to not invite Andante to any of our exclusive NFT deals and affordable get-started as an entrepreneur packages.

[Malakittens]

We've got gambling and perfidious fake masons; what madness has overcome this town!?

I mean how do you know it's fake tho?

Do you actually have a scumread on Andante or do you just want to see what happens there? I see nothing in her iso that catches my eye negatively. I kind of like that she didn't bother too much to make logical sense out of her scumread on Shirou while at the same time agreeing with me his gambling stuff was not really alignment indicative. Leaning slightly towards town here.

[NorwegianboyEE]

Andante rolling town?
I don't believe it.

I have enough curiousity on it to want to see a spicy wagon. I lean scum but i wouldn't call it anything better than vibe read.

[SirCakez]

Laplacian still scum.

Zookeeper votes are also acceptable, though.

VOTE: Firebringer

He claimed scum.

where?

good thing im scum this game. otherwise norwee wants me to try. grosss

Understandable. I don't really have seen anything here that made me dislike the Gypyx wagon. I don't like how they only reacted defensively since that happened and said nothing else.

[Malakittens]

So right now I have one solid town read + my two mason partners.

I'll continue to gather more reads upon posting + game progress.

Anyways FB why don't I have a solid town read on you yet

it's bothering me

[Firebringer]

i would think it weirder if u had a townread on me this early

[Malakittens]

not really??

[Firebringer]

why would u townread me, ive done like nothing townie

[NorwegianboyEE]

I’m not gonna townread you for saying you haven’t done anything townie Fire.

[NorwegianboyEE]

Stop trying to tug our heartstrings with your false charm.

[Firebringer]

u better scumread me or else u suck at this game punk

[House]

Laplacian still scum.

Zookeeper votes are also acceptable, though.

It is exactly the type of post that I would expect many players to make as mafia if they aren't entirely comfortable playing as such.

Plus, the post by Noctyrnia he is referencing is an entirely fair reaction to the way the game is playing out currently. Much of the game up to this point is fairly meaningless due to it.

Firstly, i already made this kind of entrance as town, so while i don't argue it's town indicative, it ain't scum indicative either

secondly, yeah that's fair peoples can be annoyed at the players not taking things seriously, i gettit, but my point is that i feel like it's not a super genuine way to say it, like, (thinking as i go) it even feels a bit like "caution guys, i know that's the wrong choice, but imma do it if y'all don't focus on what actually serious"

I fail to see what the difference is.

[Blake Belladonna]

I've been in games where the strategy for the scumteam was literally to demoralize town by spamming the thread with fluff. And it worked.

I'm not just being anti-fun just cause I hate fun, I like fun. I think the mason claims are cheeky. It's just gotta not be anti-town stuff. A meta that allows scum claiming is bad. Mafia will just claim mafia for the WIFOM and players won't touch them cause "why would scum claim mafia?" when in effect it allows mafia to be honest and make them more genuine.

Do you specifically believe that is the case in this game?

I personally do not, and I believe that in Shirou's case specifically, it is more town indicative than scum indicative. I am uncertain on NorwegianBoyEE in this regard, albeit he isn't quite on the same level as the other two, and Firebringer likely would do so as either alignment.
