Sure, if we want to have that stuff in public, I'm fine asking here too - why was that post you quoted interesting to you?
(Also, that's not my name.)
The part about alts was interesting. How to read you and SCRRRD given your join dates was something I kept coming back to. You had phrased something similar in the game thread, but the implication of your post in the hood was a little more emphatic. Reading it again this morning, the difference in phrasing is not as pronounced as I was thinking yesterday.
I was wondering if you're aware that that was not a readslist, just a copy-paste of the playerlist.
I was not planning for a difference in phrasing, for what it's worth. Though reading over both, I'm not sure how you see the hood post as more empathic, or what that even means in this context.

I don't get the feeling he actually thinks I'm mafia at all from his posting. it's kind of just "revenge on pooky" "let him eat his own medicine someone lol-hammer him" and that doesn't seem like a sentiment you express to someone you think is mafia
lowkey this is true but also the alternate lim options are not really speaking to me
I would do Dann if that wagon happened or maybe Radja
Are you not considering a small hood elimination? You had a vote down on my slot earlier, and you called my posts "manufactured".

Lucian: This slot has fallen off a lot since the beginning - it feels like the slot started fast and then just ran out of gas because it's in a comfortable position and doesn't really need to do anything anymore.
This is not something that jumped out at me reading the thread in replacement mode.
It is something that I've felt, though. I started off strong because there were things to do; there's only so many things you can do when your two main scumreads are lurking.
Also, I think fferyllt should be given zero town points for not hammering Pooky. If she is scum and he's town, it's probably optimal for her to not hammer him, even if she's in danger of getting eliminated herself.
If she gets BEAR eliminated, then good for her, she scored a miselim. If Pooky gets eliminated and flips town, then she scores town points for not hammering him. If she gets eliminated and flips red, Pooky is probably getting eliminated first thing Tomorrow morning. She can't lose.
Obviously she can't hammer in the event that she IS scum with Pooky, but I kind of don't really think Pooky is scum, so.

When I read it last night, I was tired and trying to get rehydrated. By more emphatic I mean that when I read it, I interpreted the hood comment as something close to "there's probably at least one alt in this hood".
Rereading it, I think I was projecting my reluctant pattern-match quest. I don't want to do it, but pattern matching is what I default to in mafia. Neither of you so far really remind me of specific other players. There's a whole swath of players I seldom encounter because I mostly avoid open setups and the normal queues. So on the one hand, I want to dismiss the question and just treat you both as competent players of at least middling experience. On the other hand, shut up pattern match neurons, I'm busy.

Oh, the hood comment was meant more as "the big hood contains only established players, and the small hood contains only one established player". With the potential implication that Somnus is scum for it, as the odd one out. But I think I was already finding him scummy at the time, so that might be my own bias speaking.

but I kind of don't really think Pooky is scum, so

Elaborate on the bolded?
I initially thought that him going so long without a hammer indicates scum. None of the small hood seems to have an appetite there. We were all in-thread while he was at e-1.

To actually answer your question - I'd expect the big-hood-scum to be positioning themselves better. From what I see, Pooky is a capable scum player. I'd assume that he'd be planning to effort if he was placed into the big hood. And this doesn't really feel scary.
I dislike multiple small hood people reasonlessly town reading pooky
"Play is too poor to be scum" seems sus on principle? I guess if someone understand his neta better than me it can be tru

Just it being implicit in fferylt passing up a hammer in a game state where fferyltown lol hammering scumpooky is more of a plus two than a plus one

I mean yeah I'd view you lolhammering ever as a scum claim
