Just a fair warning I'm not gonna be here again until tomorrow most likely. I work both my jobs today, only have an hour and a half in-between, and need to go to bed basically right after I get home from the second one.

Taly, what are your thoughts around Geraintm's post ? He gets checked N1 but holds off and performs an action N2 instead. Looks clean but clever scum play?

I've done myself no favours worrying about it so much but have felt the need to defend myself.

So I don't have any other serious reads. But that's also going to be normal for me because I've never been the type of player that likes to make a list of names and write “scum lean/town lean” or anything similar.

I read each post and examine it in the moment as “would I say that as town?” Or “would I say that as scum?” - and then proceed accordingly from which I think makes the most sense.

I seriously doubt I turn my attention away from Andante today. I'm satisfied with my feelings on them, and will let the rest of the players decide what's best.

I mean,
Geraint's
assertion about previous games is true regardless of his alignment here, so it's a fluffy post. Both town and scum like to give their histories based on what most often happens to them -- I do this too. For it to hold water is circumstantial. I'd rather
Geraint
focus less on how others react to him and him reacting to others.

Hello, I have read nothing that happened since the site went down for the upgrade and I also probably missed some stuff before that. Diving in now...

I cannot stress this enough, worrying about me today is pointless. It won't get town anywhere
And you don't think I am aware people will think the above? I'll repeat, if I am.scum people should be able to spot me as thr day goes on and there are enough people I've played with around that I will not be allowed to enter the end game without being solved one way or thr other.

You spelled "Andante" wrong.
Do you scum read andante?
You know what? The vote originally was just a thought I had to do. I figured "hey, let's put a second vote on someone when i get to the game thread, see if that kills rvs dead or not" and I feel strongly, the game is going on now and RVS is way over. I don't know if it's entirely because of me, but I'll accept partial credit.

Now after reading all of Andante's response's to my, at the time, nothing vote. I can't see how any of their posts come from a town POV. And I am indeed currently scum reading them for this.
I read this a second time and it still feels scummy af

Have you considered how this reasoning applies in relation to your Andante scumread?
Andante has been bringing a lot of attention to himself
Do you feel like that's scum motivated?
Wouldn't you agree though, that my vote is more out of place in a game of mafia than someone bringing attention to themselves because they believe they found scum? I don't think you can compare the two types of sore thumbs.

I expect to see nearly everyone at one point or another acting like Andante. But I don't expect them to make such an elaborate case against someone from at most a 4-word post.

Most expect a single random vote in RVS. I'd wager not as many expect an RVS vote on someone who already has one.

My vote was intended to create a conversation, and inadvertently made me scum read someone because of their response to it.
Right, but this kind of sidesteps my point entirely

You think bringing attention to yourself isn't something scum generally wants to do (I tend towards agreeing with this)
Using that model of scumhunting, how do you think Andante fits?
Because I think Andante brought a LOT of attention to herself with her initial push on you and I'm confused at how you can both say 'I brought attention to myself, why would scum do that' and think Andante is scummy here

needs to give more, promised evening chats with me which are yet to materialise.
Worth noting that these will be entirely dependent on whether I'm around and can be arsed to effort in a Mafia game on any particular evening. You also won't get me on any Wednesday evenings.
Basically if it happens it happens. Don't think about it too hard.
