His posts are generic

Feels like he's laidback

Yet I still feel that's town for some reason?
Kinda same
Very "I am playing a game of mafia" vibe but I feel like it's relatively wholesome

I don't have a lot more to add. Sorry for the activity dip, rough week/weekend and this week isn't looking a tonne better. Weak town on Creature (it's because of "a creature thing"...)

Creature often plays by PoEing town until he has a list of X scum - and yeah often at the expense of making much sense. Don't think this lock towns him but it's very standard Creature

So, to finally answer that question that was posed earlier.

My opinion of Loserdude so far is that he really hasn't... dome much? Reading his posts in ISO just make it seem a lot like he's typed, but really hasn't contributed much. I don't have much of a read on him, NACL, since he's pretty forgettable and head down.

Tomth is the weirder one of the two, for sure.

Yeah I was really only focused on Tomth first couple days. Just reread a bunch and my townreads are Creature, TW and Ldog. Null is Arkais, going to say scum-team is Nacl/Tomth. I could be convinced that Tomth is making newb mistakes, but the fact that he doesn't explain his actions isnt helping my scumread on him at all. If Tomth ends up town that improves Nacl, but id still like SOME sort of explanation for my vote other than the shoddy one he gave. Slight scum reads on Geraint. Faust... idk im going to keep my opinions to myself on him. Null for now.

I'm not sure about NaCl. I think I'm open to Thomth/Faustiv lynches but think we need to hear more from both of them.

Ah, oops. I'd thought from your earlier post that you had some kind of town-positive opinion on the rest of the people who'd posted when you were focusing on me/Arkias/Loserdude, then kind of went back on all 3 of us.

Yeah, I don't think Creature is scum, I just didn't really agree with his reads.


Regarding Thomth, I don't think he's scum, although I do agree that he's not being very useful. But I don't see why scum would bother doing such random, attention drawing moves as opposed to not doing them. I just don't really see where the scum benefit is in that, unless it's "oh, they'll think it's too dumb to be a scum move". It just feels like he's reckless rather than he's trying to get a lynch. And maybe it's just been my experience, but I don't think I've ever had a quickhammer in a newbie game from something like this.

No, I don't know you're scum. I think you're more likely scum than average. Why are you so worried about having 2 votes on you?

Ldog is the abbreviated version of my name that everybody used last game. I liked it.

Oh I'm not worried at all about having two votes, Especially y'all two. Are you saying its wrong to want to know why people are voting for you? Isn't that the whole point of mafia? to ask questions? Your answers will help me to further determine how scummy you are.

When you vote for someone as town its to add pressure, because you think they are scummy, or both. When you vote with no explanation, I assume its the second option, OR you're scum who doesn't have any reason at all except to jump on a wagon that already had scummy circumstances (an OMGUS also with no explanation).

Well, I did give my reasoning for why my vote's on you. And that's mostly it, I guess. I don't feel super confident that I caught you as scum, but I feel fairly confident in my townreads despite the early stage, so it's more of a process of elimination at this point.

Also, this sounds super sketchy, now that I understand it.

What the heck
vote: thomth
@Mod, I would like to state for the record that there should be 2 votes on Tomth.
Geraintm maybe use the [vot.e][/vote] method as its easier for the mod to see. Its that minus the dot.

Thank you. I will go back and update the past votecounts

In my last game I thought the same. Someone who I was confident was scum did this (except he would do it like "
insert name here
(duh)". I thought this was scummy until I not only noticed other people doing it, but it was explained that if you DONT do this its kinda scummier. Why would I not include myself in my own town read? It also helps me_the_player keep track of how many overall town and scum im reading and how the numbers/relationships match up.

I'll accept that youre confident in your town reads and the only thing thats left is me, but you're wrong.

That is L-1
Was this truly an RVS?
I feel like there is no good reason to put someone at L-1 on day 1 of day 1
Why? That's a great way to get some dialogue going and develop reads.

Was the L-1 on your scum buddy too soon?
I think it is terrible thing t9 do day one, all it will do is fixate people on the thomth. We aren’t going to get good reads from it, as I think everyone is allowed to look at that vote and wonder how helpful it is for town
