Them liking the doggy is wolfy /srs

eh?

I must be wolfy too because I like Overcat's 36.

Mind explaining this further?

its just shading a read on a town fmpov and their post before that reeked

Surely this can't be serious

[Overcat]

Okay, so, in terms of this question:
@Overcat
Elaborate on what "Effort" Jackson has put in please.

I'll say that questions normally have a question mark on the end, and don't include quotation marks alongside any of the words to indicate deep skepticism. I will answer your question, but you have to remove the quotation marks if you want that.

The next point I'll make is that one of the scumreads I learnt from my experience on mafia websites is that town tend to ask questions and try to ascertain people's reasons for things quite strongly, and scum tend to ask questions but be disinterested in the answers, and are generally asking them in a way that's for social posturing. Luka has indicated they are mafia quite strongly to me in this instance (not definitely, but I'm like 70% sure), as their question wasn't actually a question, and the quotation marks indicated a lack of interest in my answer.

The second point I'll make as a more minor fos is that scum tend to be more interested in the way things 'look' and town tend to be more interested in more definite things. Luka stating that "Them liking the doggy is wolfy /srs", is a social putdown along the lines of 'oh, so you associate with him?' sometimes that valid reasoning, in this case it's not. I don't want to make my post too long, and take up too much of the conversation space, though if anyone's curious I have one more read or two I can out.

Anyway, I normally don't vote and make decisions so early on, but I think this is mafia

VOTE: Luka

[Hu Tao]

Luka can you explain the read more clearly, so I know if you're just misunderstanding or you're trying to force a bad read. Do you think I'm scum because I said I liked Overcats vibe and made a joke about cats and dogs?

[KayJayQueue]

VOTE: Overcat

For being the punctuation police; why can’t I ask questions without a question mark.

[JacksonVirgo]

Not even 2 pages in 8 hours? This is a new experience for me. I’m used to being much more annoying by now.

Let's instead make RVS the most important part of the day instead, the last few hours of the day or even better, ELO itself

[JacksonVirgo]

Being voted as soon as I join my first game. Anxiety inducing. Anyway, I'm going to give a rundown of my aim here:

I played a lot of mafia on non-forum sites, and was pretty good. I want to see to what extent those skills transfer to forum mafia, where you get more information (because people type more before each day ends) but also people have more time to come up with convincing lies (because they have literally hours if they want to to craft each message). So, I'm excited to see how this goes.

I massively prefer playing on a forum for text-based mafia, the other I've played was in discord which is too fast for my personal taste. I hope you enjoy playing here

[JacksonVirgo]

I like overcat so far. Even though they suspiciously chose a dog for an avatar as a cat

their reads reek of TMI but they're new so w/e

What part of what they're saying reeks of TMI?

VOTE: Luka

I can already tell I'm gonna have a lot of fun playing with you

[Eiralox]

Anyway, I'll out some reads that you shouldn't take too seriously because it's been, like, 5 minutes:

I very mildly townread kay. I also very mildly townread Jackson for the effort he has put in so far.

I like overcat so far. Even though they suspiciously chose a dog for an avatar as a cat

their reads reek of TMI but they're new so w/e

What part of what they're saying reeks of TMI?

[Hu Tao]

Yeah I think Luka is by far the worst so far but I'd still like him to explain in case we are misunderstanding

[Hu Tao]

Also Luka another question when you get back, if you thought Overcat was TMI, why would you vote me? Wouldn't you vote them even if you didn't get the context of my cat and dog joke?

[JacksonVirgo]

Luka is being quite antagonistic which inherently makes me want to vote them, I don't think they're actually scummy though. This could be overcorrection but I don't think scum!luka would be this aggressive this early. Especially when immediately discounting your words like he had. It's not nice, but I don't think it's scummy

[JacksonVirgo]

Actually no, the TMI comment is wack

You’re definitely scum this time. I won’t be fooled by your “towny” posts you dirty liar!

I was more asking what specific part feels like TMI and why

[Eiralox]

Pressuposing benevolent intent Overcat made a honest entry and Luka took an honest dislike to it. Nothing major, cat gives early reads but makes sure not to commit, Luka suspects this but again makes sure not to commit (cat: 5 min luka: cat is new)

Personal dislike for cat wallpost but that's more emotional than game related.

RVS behaviors, nothing solid for either wagon so far imo

Personally I feel some people are looking at this exchange as a way to get momentum going but from my side I'm happy with open discussion and keeping things slow for a bit

[JacksonVirgo]

I'll wait for Luka to comment on my questions, but for right now I'm liking Cat and I'm liking Eira (based on that last post). I think FancyPants is a wolf

[JacksonVirgo]

Goodnight everyone

[JacksonVirgo]

VOTE: Umlaut
Ty!
Entrance was awkward

Why? Seems like a joke post like mostly everyone's

It was an akaward joke, nothing more
the reason why theyre not on my reads list @JacksonVirgo is cause I dont really believe in the vote / the slot being wolfy, it was just an early vote to generate discussion and their entrance is the one I liked the least

Back to this, why is ceejay so low?

[ceejayvinoya]

VOTE: Luka

Am curious on the few extra reads you've got

[Overcat]

Seems like I overexplained a few things and ended up wall-posting apologies. I will overexplain less in future unless requested.

I wanna say two things before bed:

1. I am unlikely to unvote Luka at this point. I believe that given the information we have now, it would be a mistake to vote anyone else.

2. Jackson said - I'll wait for Luka to comment on my questions, but for right now I'm liking Cat and I'm liking Eira (based on that last post). I think FancyPants is a wolf:

I disagree with this read a bit. Whilst I agree that Eiralox's last line is mildly towny, and it's definitely a mood for you, because you seem to like a slower pace of game, I don't want to trust them just yet. I don't like that they haven't shown much emotional investment in the game so far, or taken firm stances on any reads. Once they start doing that, I'm probably willing to townread them, but for now, they just haven't done that.

[Overcat]

Ceejay- Am curious on the few extra reads you've got

Well, I think one of my reads was on you. I like that you've been asking some good questions, but more importantly that you've been willing to put yourself in the firing line on your opinions:
