Congrats! That's extremely rad I hope the finals go well!In post 2023, Andante wrote: uhh I looked back, went "this looks bad" and yeah. you suggested I look into Gimli, yeah.
anyways, change of plans, prof just sent out the review for finals and it's kinda a lot so I'm just gonna focus on finishing this semester for the next week, might show up this weekend, but Tues/Wed of next week I'm going all in and solving this game.
@TOWN - if you are town, PLEASE do not vote anyone in the next 7 days
@Whoever cares, I'm going V/LA for the next week - I need to focus on finals (I literally failed an entire semester because of mafia before and that got me an extra year... I'm supposed to graduate in 2 weeks!!! finals timeeee )
(I promise I'm delivering on content/walls of reads when I'm back! I have no doubts there)

I 100% would've pushed Norwe as my elim choice today, had they not been killed. They were my biggest scumread yesterday.In post 2039, Cephrir wrote:
i would have put money on norwe as today's most likely eliminationIn post 2032, Peregrine wrote: I'm unsure yet how townie Norwee was perceived (what I gather is that he wasn't as townie as some alive?) but I do not think that Elpis would choose to kill him. If not for it being WIFOM for the love of WIFOM, I do not think that Elpis' posts reflect well onto that world. 1869 isn't something that you write if you have at that point the intents to kill the person you're suspecting, and sharing suspicions to. It feels genuine, as does their posting today.
While it may be an act of convenience to say "I don't really know who to vote, it could be this pair, or that pair", paraphrased from posts like 1902 and 1903, it feels like real confusion.“When someone leaves your life, those exits are not made equal. Some are beautiful and poetic and satisfying. Others are abrupt and unfair. But most are just unremarkable, unintentional, clumsy."

To be fair, I think every post Andante ever makes has some snark hidden away in itIn post 2037, Merlyn wrote:

I do want to respond to this: All of town is in a need to survive situation, because we lose the game with one more mislim. Normally my responses to Andante's pushes would be to just ask her to vote me and be done with it, but I can't in this situation.In post 2027, Peregrine wrote: From what I have been able to read in the last few pages I have some suspicions of Merlyn who seems to be more invested in defensive posting than solving or replying to Andante, which I think is behavior that a mafia player who needs to only survive and not solve correctly would engage in. This is a shallow read and I may change my mind after reading more but I feel obligated to provide at least something to kick the game back into action so… let’s do this after I am home!!
Yes, the town is in a survival position but they do not have the luxury to merely avoid elimination; they must eliminate correctly, and that mandates some amount of solving that the mafia does not need to do.
The post that made me curious to this was Andante's 2018 which, if I understand, is a point I feel might have gotten a town-you to reply to with more than you did: you wanted to give someone your vote but also were unsure of the vote. It's a worrisome dissonance, to not care to that degree. Or I suppose I would feel uncomfortable giving away my vote without absolute certainty in this situation? You chose to reply with 2019 and 2020 though. And from experience (which I have, but no one gets to know where it is from yet!) playing this way is often mafia's choice, as it's easier to snark than it is to logically rebut.
I'm pretty new, so my experience in forum mafia is small, but so far for me snark is NAI. You're hinting you're an alt of a bigger account here though, so maybe I'm wrong. If you do think this is an indicator ('playing this way is often mafia's choice'), I'm curious that you brought up Andante's 2018 without comment given that it's, uh, a little snarky too.“When someone leaves your life, those exits are not made equal. Some are beautiful and poetic and satisfying. Others are abrupt and unfair. But most are just unremarkable, unintentional, clumsy."

I've been observing mostly, we have a lot of time and I've been low energy, and nobody screams scum at the moment so I'm mostly just waiting to hear more from the Marquis replacement at the moment. I also have a bit of an issue when it comes to Mafia, and life in general, where I am just bad at saying things people don't want to hear-- like claiming scum at people or such. People also tend to get really dramatic sometimes and exaggerate my claims, which is frustrating and makes me not want to make them.In post 2053, Andante wrote: Elpis, who are you thinking is scum here? cause how you’re posting feels like you just tr everyone/aren’t really trying to figure out scum
I do not think Cephy is scum. I believe their bodyguard claim and think voting them is a terrible idea.
everyone else is on the table for me currently. Peregrine came in with accurate reads about me, so I'm inclined to trust that they might be right about other things, but I am holding judgement on that until I've seen more.
Andante is a wild card that I struggle to read because she's acting exactly like she did the last game we shared, and she was very town there, but maybe she would always act that way regardless of alignment? Could be either way, but not a confident tr or sr either way.
Merlyn has made a lot of assessments about me, many of which I understand the rationale behind, but obviously I know not to be true, which makes me feel like it could be some sort of offense to shift suspicion off their slot. However, it could just as easily be genuine reads, especially considering the tense state of the game at this point. I probably would feel comfortable voting them most, but that's genuinely not saying anything significant. I want more information, and I'm glad we have time to work on deciding that more.
To say I TR everyone is just incorrect. I TR Cephy, and everyone else is in a superposition of being town and being scum. If we DO consider that, I could start considering pairings and see what makes the most sense to me.“When someone leaves your life, those exits are not made equal. Some are beautiful and poetic and satisfying. Others are abrupt and unfair. But most are just unremarkable, unintentional, clumsy."

I think that's fair! This is my first actual game as town since my previous one was scum, so i'm still working on how to actually scumhunt. Most times when I play deception games, I do a lot more watching and trying to understand rationale for something than I do actively chase down, but that doesn't seem to be as effective in online forum mafia.In post 2064, Merlyn wrote:
I've been thinking about this for a bit, and I just wanted you to know that if it's me you suspect, it's okay to come after me and I won't take it personally. You're either doing your job as town or pretending to do the job as scum lol. I don't want to be mean to you or make you not have a fun game- you actually seem like a really nice person who I just happen to think got a red PM is all.In post 2060, Elpis wrote: I also have a bit of an issue when it comes to Mafia, and life in general, where I am just bad at saying things people don't want to hear-- like claiming scum at people or such.

One of the biggest reasons you're on my radar is kind of because I haven't really seen you come after anybody. Scum!Elpis would be doing a good job sort of staying below everyone's radar- maybe catching a little suspicion here or there, but never enough to be someone's number one suspect.
I also want to add that confidence over a claim against someone here is a bit more difficult, considering the state of the game is very all or nothing at the moment.
I think trying to view everyone as potential scum and then go through the logs questioning if the rationale fits might work, so I will maybe do that sometime soon.“When someone leaves your life, those exits are not made equal. Some are beautiful and poetic and satisfying. Others are abrupt and unfair. But most are just unremarkable, unintentional, clumsy."

I don't know that I agree-- I appreciate their analysis and it feels like they're putting effort in to scumhunt with their quoting and searching.
Also-- i'm realizing that the better way to describe my scumhunting is by finding those that I TR, and seeking my scum through deciding who ISN'T scum, and is making decisions and choices that wouldn't make sense ever as scum.“When someone leaves your life, those exits are not made equal.

Like for example, at the moment, by knowing Cephrir is towny, and having some decent confidence in Peregrine's entrance, I am tightening my view focus to have more scrutiny on Merlyn and Andante for the moment.“When someone leaves your life, those exits are not made equal.

I agree that both townreads were exceptionally flimsy. I should've seen Marquis's very minor amount of posts and thought, "hmm, this could be anything" as opposed to, "ah! town!"In post 2082, Cephrir wrote: i think there's virtually no chance it's andante & elpis off these day 2 interactions eg 1169
1262 is kind of an interesting post in light of our current knowledge that gimli/elpis/marquis was absolutely not 3 townies and in fact was imo probably two scum
1328
-this gimli townread seems... really really flimsy, no?
-remarkably certain about NM, but i guess they haven't seen him before
-this marquis townread (1330) also seems really flimsy. if you forgot your scumbuddy on purpose, props
atp ive concluded that andante is town and i'm just trying to find the team in the remaining places it can be
Gimli just seemed....fine? I did put him null town because it was somewhat tentative.“When someone leaves your life, those exits are not made equal. Some are beautiful and poetic and satisfying. Others are abrupt and unfair. But most are just unremarkable, unintentional, clumsy."

Cephy, you have ruled out me being partners with Andante, and Gimli. You obviously know we are not partners, so how valid do you see me being partners with Marquis/Peregrine? I ask because if you don't see it as valid, then we'd have shared townreads, and could probably cooperate a bit better on trying to find partners in the others.“When someone leaves your life, those exits are not made equal.

Us arriving at the same page isn't something that should be odd. They're expressing thoughts on a game that i've been in the whole time, and they're valid thoughts. Merlyn has been scumreading me since they arrived, and since I KNOW I'm not scum, it only makes sense to consider that they're not correct and not agree with their perspective on it. Plus, I'm always gonna be on and off conflicted about Andante. She's very difficult to readIn post 2119, Cephrir wrote:

Maybe I didn't directly ask why, but I did fight her on it, and disagree immensely the entire time. Her accusing Ethel is also NOT why I had her lean town, I had her leaning town because even if I feel like she's acting bizarrely sometimes, that's just because I don't understand how she views and reads people. She was town last game and I spent that game not understanding why she thought everyone else was scum. I've sort of just come to the impression that if Andante is passionately scumreading someone, and that person seems to be town, it's actually incredibly likely that person is town.In post 2134, Merlyn wrote:
Nope, now that I know you're not yelling it doesn't bother me.In post 2100, Peregrine wrote: I find it! Rather comforting to type like this, but if it is annoying I will try to stop!
The thing is, though, this is how Andante plays regardless of alignment (you don't have to take my word for it, read/skim some of her other games) . Any scumcase you make on her gamestyle isn't going to be a compelling one to me.
This is a good point, and I think something similar- I noticed it when I started making notes of who was on what wagon.In post 2108, Peregrine wrote: the fact that I think that his play this game would venture into absurdity if he was a mafia for the amount of mafia-siding he would have had to do with his pushes
Can you give me a concrete example of this? I'm asking because I have a very different take on that.In post 2108, Peregrine wrote: I currently feel as if Elpis has not pushed much, if any, of an agenda this game and interfaced with Norwee in a way that made me feel as if they would not choose to kill him
That's not my takeaway. I've brought this before, but Cephrir was the one who should have been killed last night- he was much for widely townread than Norwee. Norwee should have been a good choice for scum to leave on the board. So, why did Cephrir live? (Obviously he could have lived bc he's scum, but that's not my belief) I think it's because someone he town reads is scum, so they thought he'd be a better choice to take to endgame. That is possibly Andante, but I've already said why I think it's Elpis. (oh, side note: I know Andante said she wasn't gonna vote Norwee no matter what, but if that's why he lived that's a bold choice- Andante is very changeable).In post 2117, Elpis wrote: Just making sure-- the takeaway here is that norwe was killed because scum was under the impression that they would not be able to get them voted out?
I just went and re-read the whole Ethel thing again- how is this not a kerfluffle over nothing? Andante didn't like that Ethel was voting her when Ethel read her as null. For some reason several people really focused on one the other part of the sentence ('she said she found you neither scummy NOR TOWN'!) and that was never really the point, Andante was questioning why place a vote on a null read. Also, Elpis, if you didn't understand it, I couldn't find where you asked Andante a question (but I fully admit I might have missed it) about it- I did see you post twice about how it was leaning town with youIn post 563, Elpis wrote: As for the rest of what's going on...last time I played with Andante they came in swinging hard and being heavily defensive like they are now, and that time they were not just a town, but a power role. This reminds me a lot of that currently, so I am inclined to think that Andante is town, at least for the moment.In post 581, Elpis wrote:
I agree with most of this aside from the last part, though while what NSG has done hasn't been scummy, what she HASN'T done is. She's not really contributing to anything at all.In post 579, Gimli wrote: I think bbp is more likely scum than the other wagons
loved andante's entrances posts, don't really like her ethel push but like, I got it. you rep in you're highly suspected you get jumpy, I totally buy that was a real genuine and towny response from andante.
I don't think anything nsg did was scum indicative
I kinda hate firebringer and cephrir's treatment of the slot. of course I'm strong townreading firebringer but more on the fence with ceph.“When someone leaves your life, those exits are not made equal.

Honestly, I feel like I said all I could think of about NM, they just weren't contributing, they barely had anything to say when they did, and they seemed completely unserious. I've been TOLD that them acting that way is normal by folks, but like, they just seemed scummier than anyone else in the game! Especially since I think at the time everyone was tunneling Ethel, which seemed really weird at the time considering she didn't do anything I percieved to be scummy. Not many people had at that point, so it just made sense to me to vote for them.In post 2153, Peregrine wrote: I guess I should have clarified, I meant different case because!!! What has been posted about Elpis hasn’t persuaded me! When I read their iso (something I just did!!) I truly get the sense they’re a new town player trying to keep up the best they can!!!
The lack of hard pushing people doesn’t phase me that much! A newer player may not be inclined to do so confidently, but they were consistently expressive and curious this game in a way that I think mafia would not be! I think it is a bit of a copout to equate depth to alignment but!! It’s where I’ve ended up!
The worst thing I can say about them is their treatment of N_M, and the vote on that wagon, did not have as many words as I would have wanted to explain or agree with the wagon around the vote itself! I suppose N_M may have asked Elpis to vote and put him on V-1 to make it look like a good bus but, I don’t know!!
However I am not sheeping anyone this game!! My thoughts are my own!!“When someone leaves your life, those exits are not made equal. Some are beautiful and poetic and satisfying. Others are abrupt and unfair. But most are just unremarkable, unintentional, clumsy."

As for the Andante and Peregrine discussion of voting:
I would probably be comfortable voting Merlyn because I think of the people in the game, they're the most likely to be scum, but if anyone has someone they feel is more likely between Peregrine and Andante, I'd be happy to hear different thoughts. We have plenty of time to consider things, and it's imperative we don't make the wrong choice.“When someone leaves your life, those exits are not made equal.

I think... I mean I trust Peregrine, Cephy. I'd like to know why you don't think their posts are towny, but I am really under the impression that they joined in as town. There's a lot of discomfort and anxiety in their posting that feels genuine. I would be really surprised if scum acted so tentative while panicked and trying to make the right choice. If they're scum, they're doing an amazing job, but I trust them.“When someone leaves your life, those exits are not made equal. Some are beautiful and poetic and satisfying.

Ah shit, knowing Cephy is town, and I'm town means that one of either Peregrine or Andante is scum“When someone leaves your life, those exits are not made equal. Some are beautiful and poetic and satisfying. Others are abrupt and unfair. But most are just unremarkable, unintentional, clumsy."

Regardless the play here based on that is that I am still confident that Merlyn is scum?? Maybe one of them wants to bus in order to shift suspicion????? This is the worst ever I'm just stressed“When someone leaves your life, those exits are not made equal. Some are beautiful and poetic and satisfying. Others are abrupt and unfair.

Ceph being town is the only thing I have any significant confidence in right now, and MAYBE that Merlyn is?In post 2212, Andante wrote:

If we assume those elims-- and are correct, either I or Cephy will probably die and that would lead to Andante and Peregrine left, and I would have no idea.“When someone leaves your life, those exits are not made equal.

Should we just try it? Or is it wiser to wait and give it more consideration? I kind of feel the latter but I am very unsure because I do feel like maybe Merlyn should be dead right now“When someone leaves your life, those exits are not made equal.

Actually I'm reading the gamestate and I think the correct move is to vote: If Merlyn and Peregrine are the scum, I would expect Cephy to be too nervous to want to vote on them immediately, and it would make sense why they're still alive.“When someone leaves your life, those exits are not made equal.

I thought your posts and reasonings were always good I don't think you should be so hard on yourself. If you're scum, I think you've done really well, and if you're town, that's probably okay too...this game is scary and confusing and I don't really understand itIn post 2255, Peregrine wrote:
Yes but I guess the feeling I get from the posting currently is that I will probably be alive tomorrow if we get it right today and just mess things up and lose and I think that will be a little humiliatingto deal with and unfun!!In post 2245, Elpis wrote:
