Mod notes:

Again i make votecounts on hand. So if you see something strange, PM me. Thanks.

It is day 1, there is pretty much nothing anyone can do which should set off a real scum ping.

do you really think this ?

Yeah he does. It's a recurring theme. It makes him difficult to read Day 1 especially because it's the same M.O. every game, but he does know how to lean into it when he's scum. It's best just to disregard for now and deal with him later.

yes this ^^^

leave me alone, i think i am easily spottable when scum later in the game, and i know i am difficult to read so i have standing request to be checked out early so we can avoid worrying about me.

do you really think this ?

yeah. later on day 1 actions when combined with night knowledge and votes with resolutions day 1 actions can help inform you, but anyone who states they have strong reads/are certain about something on Day 1 is talking out of their bottom.

i've answered this, lets all move along and get this day over with as quickly as possible,ive got things to do

Kow has too many votes for this early. Got my eye on Penguin,red, Klick, and andante. Likely at least one scum on there.

I'm at work, so this is all I'll be able to say for the next fivish hours.

Red and Andante seem okay rn
Other 2 idk

I don't like Gryff's post but Gamma's is not much better. This legitimises poor scum hunting

What do you think of

Gamma

taking

Red

and

Andante

out of that pool?

To me, Gamma’s approach feels opportunistic in that they are jumping on this nothing post and using it as a way to build credibility.

I don’t want to answer for Gamma but I think the really question here, Taly, is why Gamma felt out of those 4 that Red and Andante had done enough to be town, and why the other two are not? I would be interested to hear their rationale on why these two.

Until then, like I said it just seems opportunistic.

[Brickwalll]

I see Gamma answered the above, should have read the full thread before posting. Will be back on this evening, rushing mafia posts is to no one’s benefits.

Brick

, this is your third game ever, correct?

geraintm

you seem pretty unbothered.

bothered by what?

[Taly]

I'll be straightforward:

In 123, you said nobody can give off a real scum ping in D1 to

Gamer

.

Later with 151, you agreed with

Herta

that it's easier to catch you as scum earlier.

You followed that up 152 with ending the day quickly and placed a vote.

This reads as deflective because you're comfortable with getting a pass for now off the basis of a real scum ping on you, but you're fine with eliminating another player without that.

The mismatch in expectation gave me pause.

in the past ive literally just voted longest wagon the whole day.
today, i voted for the person i gave a naughty point to.

im not sure how i am meant to play day 1 and make people happy. if i dont give ashit i get wagoned. when i don't people dislike it too.

UNVOTE:

you all do you, i'll sit here and make snide remarks.

[geraintm]

Later with 151, you agreed with

Herta

no, i said the exact opposite. i believe i am easy to spot a scum in the late game, but i suggest that someone checks me over tonight so we avoid all that because people have found me hard to play against as scum for some reason and i want to not have that happen this game

Where did you give Gamer a naughty point, and how did my question lead to you unvoting completing?

you meant "checked" as in a night action

me no want unvote

[Andante]

lol gerain!! don't let Penguin stop you from voting if you want to vote!
That's honestly the only thing for you I'm like "what??" right now

and for everyone else, I think gerain seems fine for now, like they're actually here and talking, my memory of scum!gerain is literally just "day 1 is stupid I'll do something later" "not enough info on day 2 yet"

what I"m more interested in is Kow.... not doing anything except talking about my reaction there? and how I'm over reacting, like dude, I've literally gotten speed limmed like 24 hours into a day before (you can go find the normal game where I was macho vig) and limmed very early on in a newbie game, literally just go pick any of my past games and ISO me/see where I have votes on me, like you're making this giant deal over this?? but like, you're not doing anything else?
Kow, the "dissapearing"? yeah I'm used to fast paced games, so, sorry if that bothers you, it's just how I am, literally why I hate RVS, it's like wasting time, I find something decent to push, I run with it (Like running with scissors tbh) and we see where it goes, my followers on this Kow vote though, there was a post I saw I was like "what??" I can't recall it right now, and whoever was like "ahh there's an actual wagon!! too many votes!!" like, it should be fine, I feel like everyone here knows to not hammer an e-1, if it actually gets close, people will unvote, but this "pressure" on Kow? has resulted in.... Kow just "ANDANTE MAFIA!" and that's like the biggest takeaway I think I gather.

Kow, can you please give some thoughts on literally anyone else/anything else happening in the game?


uhhh I'm probably missing something but I think those are my main takeaways, don't have much time right now, but figured I needed to show up again lol I hate catch up game!! If I missed anyone asking me anything (and this is like an all game thing) just requote it/ yell at me, cause I get very focussed on random stuff as I'm reading, like yall's gamer!maf stuff? idk, I don't recall any gamer posts, I'm more focussed on Kow stuff, and I'm confused why we're pushing gerain, like when has anyone ever known gerain to be a super scumhunter day 1?? (no offense there!!) oh! and gerain unvoting after penguin said something, seems odd to me. Penguin is looking mighty towny!!! I don't actually think anyone else is town yet lol most yall just chilling in null, has everyone even checked in yet? I can't think of the like 13 other people... later problem!!! lmaoo

ok, that was my ~15 minutes of free time I had, tbh a bunch of nothing but yolo. This was mostly to see if I needed to flip my vote, but like, Kow is giving nothing sooo I'm leaving it, Tomorrow is my bday so I have to get a bunch of stuff done tonight, so I really shouldn't be here much tonight (but we all know I'll spend way too much time here.... ahhhhh)

any questions for me, just yell!!

(sorry for the long post, but it was either this, or a million 1 line posts from my phone, on the bus tbh)

like, you're voting Gamer because of 91? so sheeping gerain? then this post you're like "idk about you gerain" and now it's "I like the traction!!!!" like what? I'm not really following

[Taly]

happy bday

andante

how do you feel about the votes on

I agree with

Gamer's

philosophy that a lot of noise can make it difficult to sort D1 and in reflection for later dayphases, but this and coupled with the indifference to

Kowabungah

wagon without really asserting a stance or push gave me "active but coasting" vibe.

So that gave me "I wanna poke" vibe.

Also, I was voting

Gamer

prior to

Geraint

, so it's never accurate to describe my vote as sheeping here.

[Andante]

(ok, I seriously have to go now, but Taly, I will respond to you when I'm back, I may have just missed something, but I'm confused right now)

[Taly]

LOL i am confused about something most of the time i open a mafia thread

[Taly]

I thought of waiting for

Gamer

to bite but there's no point now:

do you have any above rand reads,

Gamer

?

[PenguinPower]

and how did my question lead to you unvoting completing?

Still would like this answered.

[Brickwalll]

Brick

, this is your third game ever, correct?

geraintm

you seem pretty unbothered.

Negative, although third game since December last year. Before that it was about 15 years ago I played on this site. Can't remember my name or the e-mail I used at the time so lost that account. Also played IRL but don't think that counts for here.
