@HEM - froggy is serious about the test in my experience. I haven't read Danny's scumread over it (I probably don't agree), but I'm just saying that I think it's possible for people to get tilted at it. It's likely NAI for both froggy and dann

I had a funny thought that maybe instead of playing mafia we just have a party and xofelf being the judge/jury and slowly retire us one by one ala survivor style and even the mafia listen to them and nightkill in the order that they want.

would be absolutely LIT imo but unlikely to happen.

Actually, I should probably check I'm not misremembering and faked a negative read to frog's test as scum. Lol.

I just remember arguing with frog about it and them being town

What ispulling a skitter?
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

HEM check: Also somebody who makes me smile to read. A bit more aggressive style, but it's consistently so and not defensive or mean. It works for me. It's a lot more reactiony, which is fine. That being said, it feels like he's got cards to play but he's keeping them to himself and only teasing hints of them now and then. I don't think it's AI. It's just more, has a reason to only share thoughts when they're relevant and the most likely to get genuine reactions from their thoughts. Precise is probably more correct. It reminds me of what I've liked from FlavorLeaf in the past. I largely feel good about him. It's just as possible this is just good scumplay, but nah I don't think so.

I hope you're finding this game fun still.
Spoiler: not really game related
i feel psychoanalyzed and oof, this is a very specific callout and also an incredibly accurate one on more levels than just mafia, and in ways that i hadn't really realized, gonna go lie down and think about my life now

i am not finding this game fun as of pretty recently but hopefully it will pass

Did Skitter get pissed off that I said she wasn't being as active as some of us? TBF, she has more posts than I thought she did but my statement wasn't some kind of swipe at you.

Lol no. I had said yesterday that I was planning on doing a couple iso-dives to untangle some people so I had a clearer vibe on them. You just happened to replace in in the middle of that and I paused long enough to respond to a post that you made, but went back to the last one I said I'd do today.

I just found your entrance odd.

could you put into more specific words why elephant is the more townie than anyone else?

this might be a weird question but why did you say you read a couple of pages if you had actually read 15ish? 15 is a lot more than a couple, and if your vote on Datisi was based on 15 pages rather than ~2, that seems like an important thing to make clear

also, who else is on your radar? Be specific because from where I'm sitting "a couple of folks" might mean over half the game :P
It's not my native language, "couple" meaning more than one but comparatively few to the overall amount. I feel like "couple" being 15 or so is appropriate when referring to, say, 60 odd pages on a forum, vs. Being 3-5 people out of 20 odd.
