Other things I had in mind? I wanted to roll mafia. I've not gotten a red PM since nearing two years ago, and If I do roll scum, I want it in a player list of people who will motivate me to work for every inch. Guess I'll have to sign up for another after this.

The Tammy-exclusive thing was a joke. Want me to pull up my ISO about their slot? Essentially, I have three different town things I look for, one per head, and all three are hitting them.

The ffery head I think is here to encourage me to vote my heart out after seeing what happened the last two games. Reads that she is partially responsible for stamping out, at that.
My memory had you being a bit more passive w/r/t the Fermis hydra, and leaving the ball more in their court, over more actively looking to bounce reads off them. This isn't limited just by my memory, though, but also by my own lack of familiarity with you. Shame. I have a long to-do list, don't I?

For now I'll just return to your early reads. Some of the ones I agreed with I already mentioned. I'll say your early l4pe townread I thought was a mistake, in the sense that very base level reflexive questioning are essentially freebies as scum and not that NAI. Super safe, often townread but NAI at best if not outright scummy imo.

Well unfortunately in 2010 the meta was way way different, you know this don't you? Hyperposting became the norm somewhere around the turn of 2016. I've tried to avoid it

And it's not like that makes me some secret paragon no

This is a mafia site that I know of, that I happened to have played many games on. A regular? I don't know about that, but I get invited to play and I usually accept because don't tell MU but I think they kinda stink

Discredit.... attempt?

You're talking to me. About your reasons. For wagoning me.

I'm asking you a very fair question of "why the fuck should I care about this".

What exactly am I discrediting?
this wasn't my response to that, the one I quoted you, and responded is the response to the why you should care.

I'm past this, past you, to be honest. Just throw a vote down on me so I can lay a trap.
If I wanted to make your life in this game miserable and then kill you, I would.

No this is about learning experience for players I thought were new but APPARENTLY ARE ALTS.

-_-

Since ffery decided to take every opportunity to remind me that Albert was indeed scum in Advance Wars Mafia (who she felt strongly about and I kept her from lynching).
I was just salty all over again, rereading that game. Sorry! You do you. I'm no mafia goddess. Never was.

How?

I don't let myself get that way through Mafia. If I ever feel like I'm getting toxic on an out of game level, I excuse myself from the situation.

That won't happen no matter what this game.

Me/Reagan are going to take awhile to sort unwnd. In my real-time glancethrough I leaned town, but my more careful readthrough I found their posts on Gamma unnaturally convoluted and suspected they're performative. It's kind of annoying to get the telegraphed theme of what I'll argue later so my apologies.

Reagan seems to go back and forth on their more recent stuff w/ Flavor but that's a job for the the Bush of tomorrow/Thursday.
