[MathBlade]

I will not stand for this thread being unlocked slightly later than the other ones!

Anyway, VOTE: skitter

it's party time

VOTE: Plum

Serious vote. The party time post rubbed me the wrong way.

we can dance my dude

but there's a little party hat

Why are you defending Plum? If it was a random statement they could say so. Now you’ve given them an out.

???

fwiw it is a party hat and that indeed is why it's party time

now go ahead and tell me that tris gave me an out

They did. Quite simply put the post is unnecessary. It fishes for what I was expecting then you can mirror. Garcia’ing in the early game is almost always bad.

[RadiantCowbells]

Maybe don't lynch me in that time.

Maybe do.

[tris]

an out for what?

Random fluff. Random post + disappear = bad.

Random fluff + response = good

Random fluff + Garcia = ???

Garcia? What?

It's not like the party hat in the avatar changes that's it's fluff

[skitter30]

what's garcia'ing?

[MathBlade]

VOTE: teacher policy.

Why is this a policy vote?

I had duck for Xmas.

Omg stop garcia’ing people.

Pedit
Garcia = Answer a question not directed at you.

[Aristophanes]

<3 you RC!

I'll gladly jump back into retirement, just fyi

[skitter30]

i mean ... that's kinda how this game tends to be played

"bad" as in scum equity from tris or "bad" because perceived reduced utility in grilling me over the phrase "it's party time"

I just call that bad manners. Good to know tho!

[MathBlade]

are you usually this aggressive ?
i feel like you're trying to attack tris here for a fairly innocuous statement

Yes. I like to get things started fast and quick. Whether my first impressions are right or wrong it helps get people talking and moves us out of RVS into content and gives less room for scum to hide in.

[Plum]

Garcia = Answer a question not directed at you.

in the case of tris and me you didn't ask a question

just saying

[skitter30]

math what was tris's post fishing for and what were you expecting?

[tris]

Hey Tris!

You're about a year into MS, you've played lots, right?

I actually originally started playing in 2013, but there were only a couple games from then. I got back into mafia with this new account a year ago and have some games over the year.

Bad as in denies reads which is proscum. Unless you have a good reason garcia’ing in the early game is bad as it tends to monopolize conversation through one spot.

Also bad because if denied me reads on you and if my gut was correct or not.

Figured Id at least give you cover to say I was buddying you this time.

i kind of want to vote you but i'm not sure if it's a playstyle thing

early townpings on plum, i think

[skitter30]

lol

[MathBlade]

math what was tris's post fishing for and what were you expecting?

Tris’s post was fishing for what I expected out of Plum.

Didn’t seem all that bad >> I either explain how it is bad, giving Plum an out if they are scum with Tris
Or if Plum is town Tris scum >> Gets me shit talking about town.

Either way it was just bad.

...

I'll tell you honestly the only reason for me to say "it's party time" there was a reference to the avatar thing me and my team have going on. However you read the choice to open with fluff, I'll tell you 100% NAI the reason that phrase came up is that

I'm saying this to try to help you get back your lost gut read in some capacity

Then vote me. See who joins you. Why would you be scared to vote?

It’s not like votes are immutable.

Is there some reason you’d be scared to vote me? You can always change it when you find out you’re wrong.

you realize you're railing against p much exactly what you're doing, right?

i'm not saying it's inherently a bad thing, as you did just single-handedly move the game out of rvs, but i think your complaint about garcia'ing is kinda silly

You know what, I read that when yku came back I believe, but had forgotten.

Are you typically an emotional player?

[skitter30]

how did you get scared out of that, pray tell?
