Finally. The end of the thread.

Again this sort of going after easy targets is not what I expect from town Feysal, in the two games I've played with Feysal as town he went aggressively after whom he perceived to be the biggest threat (MoI), with better reasoning.
As a matter of fact, Mikujin ceased to post halfway through day one and then replaced out, so it was a fair comparison. In any case, I was thinking the same thing kortul said in post
#922, namely that if SnowStorm is used to short and highly active days, and not using meta while scumhunting, there is no town reason for him to have been this passive.
I don't read MoI as scum this game, and when I have gone after him in past games it was not because I saw him as the greatest threat, just my strongest suspect. And do you seriously think I suspect Starbuck over a mere theory disagreement, or that she would be an easy target? It amazes me how she has been able to get through the day doing nothing without any more suspicion on her, and seeing people call her town for her absurd self-choice is infuriating. Fortunately that is about to end. In her last big post she slipped up at last and contradicted her own story, but that case deserves its own post.

Post 247 is a bad post. There's no good reason to choose somebody you think is a bad lynch (and Tyene's stance on choosing had earlier been that you should choose people you'd want to lynch; see for instance
Post 45). Her responses when challenged about this post (see
Post 261-,
Post 569) seem disingenuous - she spends a lot of time focusing on things other than the incongruity of choosing somebody you've just called "a bad lynch".
This has already been resolved, but I am surprised it ever became an issue. After the way she switched her vote and choice in post
#82 I thought her meaning was obvious - that while choices should be used as a second lynch, the choice should be on the more capable shot, or lesser suspect. I'm not sure why she would have trusted me with a kill, since I don't think I've ever succeeded at targeting scum when I've had a killing role, but I agree with her on not trusting redFF with it.

Can you explain for me your town read on MoI? Are you not the least bit paranoid?
I answered this one already I believe.
Congratulations, this post effectively summarizes the entire day so far.
This surprises me, and I think besides Regfan you're the only one. Mind explaining why?
In post 798, Tyene Sand wrote:The jabs between Tammy and me are (currently) playful and rather evident of that. Look at our flavor alts, look at the Houses, look at a certain Targaryen with rubies in his armor. Dorne does not have particularly good relations with Winterfell. It's RP banter, because that's
fun
.
I'm actually not very knowledgeable about the flavor at all, having neither read the books or seen the series. I looked up Lyanna Stark in a wiki when I had a free moment, but I don't know a damn thing about Dorne or the Sand Snakes. Anyway, I get role play, having played those games myself, but post
#237 seemed to imply there was something more to it, so I asked.
In post 798, Tyene Sand wrote:I really don't like how you're devoting so much time to things that are null in nature and proven by interactions in previous games; this is not something I could conceivably lie about as either alignment, as the forums are riddled with proof of what I think about this subset of people. So how do you think this is helping you get a read on me, Feysal?
I don't. I ask about things that catch my interest or confuse me, and don't stop to think about how useful the answers will turn out to be. They either are or not. It may surprise you that your responses have given me a better read of you. Not quite the obvious town so many others call you, but better.
As for checking the forums for proof, has it escaped your notice that this is the first time since
page three
that I have been able to post while completely caught up? I may look at your meta in some days if we both live that long, and there are other things I would like to do such as dismantle this wagon of village idiots, lurkers and replacements who have parked their choices on me, but I haven't been able to do any of that while all my free time has gone into trying not to flake out of this runaway train wreck waiting to happen. I noticed you pulled an all-nighter earlier, which speaks well for your motivation. I have just pulled my second one this week to catch up with this, and hopefully get something done.

Maybe not exasperated, but I remember him struggling to keep up in
Court of the Gods.
As for current reads, BBmolla is town. That reaction test with Tammy was just another reason why, I could have said earlier this was not the scum BBmolla I saw lynched in another game recently. I'm slowly warming up to Minimum, and of the other hydras Plessie and Pandora are obvious town. Not Dredd though. I don't like the repeated contradicting reads and lack of effort to sort out their differences, for example Arthur casually listing Pandora as a town read after Alek loudly proclaimed they were my scum partners. Tammy, Regfan, Mockingjaye and Plumamma are all strong town reads, kortul, Jal and StefanB are weaker ones. Benmage is playing like his usual self. I also like the point BBmolla made about Shinori, and I think the tell is made stronger rather than weaker by Shinori admitting his friend is not new to mafia and offering meta on him.
That is it for now. Time to pass out and be dead to the world for a few hours.
Preview edit: the last page is 40 now? Two new pages just while I was writing this. I'll deal with that later.
Someone saying obviously is indicative of smug wording?
