Mini 1872 | The Hogwarts Mafia | Game Over!

[Frosty Scales]

Well...I did nullread them but right now I'm giving them a townlean.
I'm not SRing Pep and I haven't found a reason to this whole game yet.

...

Some people would consider Pep's posting NAI, some others consider it scummy. There really isn't a right answer.

[Frosty Scales]

And I don't consider it scummy.
Your point?
-Ali

[Frosty Scales]

Also Anotora, you wanna know something cool?
-Ali

[Anotora]

You called Pep's posting "scummy", but then you said you haven't found a reason to scumread him.

[Frosty Scales]

And I also called it NAI in the same post.
Nice try tho.
-Ali

[Frosty Scales]

Also you're attacking me when shos called it scummy and voted him for it because why exactly?
-Ali

[Anotora]

I could choose to say something like,

"Frosty Scales' inconsistency and wishy-washy attitude towards Pep could be considered scummy, or it could be considered NAI. *shrug*. Beats me.

But that isn't how town plays.

[Frosty Scales]

Considering they only had 1 post at that point which looked like scumhunting but then once I interacted with them I started to get townvibes from them? Yeah, I'm totally inconsistent about a person I'm trying to sort.
And yeah, that's not uncertainty from me because some people read shitposting as scummy and some read it as NAI and I read it as NAI.
Anything else you SR me for?
And any other reads besides that?

Also the above is funny because you just said it.
-Ali

[Anotora]

Yess!!!

I'm still working out other reads, though.

[Frosty Scales]

Here, let me give you mine.
{Pep}
{Uzi, BBT}
{Screenplay, Clumsy Phoenix, Not_mafia, Kain, Shadow}
{Ano, Shos}
{Keyser}
-Ali

Pedit: I'm a 1-shot Novice Desperado
That means if you scum you die right now
and if you're town I die right now.
You ready to get rekt

Bombard: Anotora

[Frosty Scales]

Can we wagon screenplay now?

Maybe. Why?

Because this game needs a wagon.

Reason why I'm TRing them because of this interaction is mostly because the thought of trying to start a wagon this early seems town. He's probably attempting to see how Screenplay reacts to a wagon on him to try to sort him. Thats how I intrepret this. I see more town motivation then scum motivation here.

[Frosty Scales]

Also @Keyser

And while this is HP themed, sorting by town and scum not theme is easier for me to understand.
speaking about that kind of stuff, got any reads?

I have played with BBT before (one of the best I have played with/against) and I feel like he could easily try to push early wagons as both town or scum during RVS, so I personally am not town-reading him for that behaviour. However, I can see how

you

could think it as

too-bold-to-be-scum

and lean with a more

pro-active-town-motivation

theory.

got any reads?

Again, I feel like my reads develop through meaningful interactions and analysis of motivation. I will not force out early read lists. They do not directly help me defeat Death Eaters, and could even be used against the Order of the Phoenix in later rounds. However, when I do share "reads" they will be supported with full reasons, which I will obviously be open to discuss. No Rambo is going to defeat the Dark Lord by himself.

I can't but help

town-lean

Frosty Scales' 'inconsistent' / seemingly contradicting / 'wishy-washy' reasoning of her reads. At the time, Frosty Scales' changing position on Pep looks like it was effected by her read of me (pre-flip associations, confirmation bias). I was finding it hard to wrap my head around her viewpoint and scum-theory, but I am forced to see it as a natural progression.

Let's look over Frosty Scales' posts regarding Pepchoninga:

"I don't know alignments" [SOUNDS LIKE N/READING PEP]
"It seems like you're trying to protect Pep." [SOUNDS LIKE T/READING PEP]
"you are right about that being NAI" [SOUNDS LIKE N/READING PEP]
"I feel like Pep is trying to extend RVS for as long as possible so he can just blend in with what's going on." [SOUNDS LIKE S/READING PEP]
"For all I know you could be trying to get towncred from him, which is why I see scum motivation in your chainsaw for him." [SOUNDS LIKE T/READING PEP]
"There really isn't a right answer." [SOUNDS LIKE N/READING PEP]
"Didn't I say I nullread them not scumread them?" [SOUNDS LIKE N/READING PEP]
"I did nullread them but right now I'm giving them a townlean." [SOUNDS LIKE T/READING PEP]
"I'm not SRing Pep and I haven't found a reason to this whole game yet." [SOUNDS LIKE NOT S/READING PEP]

I like how the read changed through his/her interaction with me, and how it changed through his/her interactions with Pepchoninga. I do not feel like Frosty Scales was changing her position on Pepchoninga/myself in order to gain some 'advantage'.


Even though Frosty Scales thinks I am a Death Eater, we do agree with our position on shos (our one area of reconciliation):

I do sorta agree that questions that don't really have a purpose gets us nowhere, but if this was genuine, I feel as if you would make an attempt to try to see if Pep learned anything off of those questions instead of dismissing them right away. Ya feel me?

Also Ano if you want unnaturally reaching here you go

{Pep}
{Uzi, BBT}
{Screenplay, Clumsy Phoenix, Not_mafia, Kain, Shadow}
{Ano, Shos}
{Keyser}

However, I am not going to dare to talk to Frosty Scales' about her thoughts on the Keyser-shos associations, as I am still dizzy looking at her Keyser-Pep chainsaw theory

[Keyser Söze]

My question were asked purely out of love for Harry Potter.

Are you sure you weren't trying to extend RVS with evil RQS in order to blend in and distract the Order of the Phoenix?

With that said please don't allow conflict between members of the Order. We should be united and fight against the Dark forces and not divide over stupid things.

These "conflicts" are productive! You formed two reads from it. I think Lil Uzi Vert did too.

Funny thing is I asked the questions as a side note and since it was RVS I don't think there was any problem for that.

I won't be scum-reading you for it. If you are a Death Eater that is the most pathetic attempt to sabotage the Order of the Phoenix.

Hasn't the Dark Lord taught you any new tricks?

Pep what information did you get from your RQS?

I don't consider it random questioning. The question weren't random, they were thematical and made so we can better know eachother as HP nerds.

God, it's not like we're playing a Harry Potter themed mafia game...

Harry fucking Potter has gone face to face with Lord Voldemort multiple times and survived (ultimately killing him), killed a basilisk, fought off 100+ dimentors, became the champion of the Triwizard Tournament at the age of 14, infiltrated the Minestry of Magic at the age of 15, successfully searched for the Dark Lords horcruxses and was a hero in the Battle for Hogwarts. Do you truly belive he cannot defeat one Death Eather. Give the man some credit.

I want Jarry safe, but I also know there isn't anybody who can protect him better then himself.

That may be the case in the books/films, but for the purpose of this game, (set-up wise and mechanically) Harry may need our help.

Headmaster Keyen Headmaster Keyen when do we get sorted?


...and any news on Secret Agent Jin?

[Shadow_step]

I have to admit, this dramatic gesture of 'sincerity' has warmed my soul. If you feel it does not harm Slytherin, nor our cause versus the Dark Lord, then reveal.

Is that why you wanted to challenge the flavour? Because you think the character allocation is non-alignment indicative? That may not be the case for everyone else though... and I fear the Death Eaters are already prepared for this very test.

Are you ready for the reveal?

[Shadow_step]

Ok people, we are playing an HP flavored game, so let's have some HP questions!

Who is your favorite Harry Potter movie and why?

Prisoner of Askaban, mostly because I've played the game based on the movie on my gameboy advance long back and I absolutely loved the story line.

[Keyser Söze]

[Shadow_step]

Who is your favorite Harry Potter character and why?

I'd say Severus too but since many people have said that already.
Mad eye, just cause I love anti heroes.
