beep.
I agree artemiana is wrong that it's wrong to wagon someone who's V/LA but like, from a pragmatics perspective it's sort of wrong (in that it's less useful) and I don't think her reaction is especially scum-indicative.

@STD: I probably will vote at some point idk. But also I think it's a pretty good meme if I don't until S_S does. If there's something that tickles my fancy enough I could.

This is the first really noteworthy thing that's stuck out to me. I'm totally on board with having no thoughts at this point, but that's because there had been no serious content, and not because of any intrinsic quality of Day 1...

I don't find any of them *especially* convincing. My reads on both are sort of in holding patterns of wait-and-see-what-they-do I suppose. S_S's outright refusal to do anything until now is neutral to me given what I know of his meta/the state of the early game.

I don't really buy that artemiana's Pooky push is scummy at all in the way B_M described it, I think scum would kind of not really want to push pooky here bc he's being very reactive. That said I don't townread her either.

This is fair and I can understand thinking he's scum just for this too, I have a hard time evaluating that kind of thing bc it's also something that I don't know if scum would flagrantly lie about.

you don't think multiple posts that literally boil down to "there was shitposting in this game and I don't like that" is a little excessive?

It's possible to get reads from shitposting y'know
Also, what is Not_Mafia doing? This is some of the worst play I’ve ever seen.
I will SEARCH for games with you and N_M to help you policy him.
I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.

Maybe-- I thought him forgetting it was open was slightly +town (or at least -main faction scum) because scum had pregame choices.

Serious talk: I may not have any confident reads yet, but I feel like the top 4 posters are indeed all Town, and that scum are happy to let them take bouts at each other while they wait for a chance to jump on the duel loser.

Like, seriously.. SIX players have posted less than N_M??

If I had to pick out a scumspect it would be Mini, but that's pretty minor.

Metro City, The Andrus Sector, Vega Prime



Detective Pooky took a long sip of his coffee as he stared into the interrogation room at the Alien,

It had been a week since they'd brought the suspect in for questioning and he had not said a damn word.

Higher ups were getting restless. Charge em or let em go.

This was the kind of hard work that they left up to Detective Pooky.

He looked at Detective Penguin, eating his chestnuts nearby.

It was time to make a move

The chainsaw made a loud thud as Pooky put it down on the table,

ancient looking thing, used on Earth back when there were still trees growing on the surface.

The Alien's cold impassive eyes betrayed not a spec of emotion as the blood stained weapon was put in front of him.

"That's not a chain saw"

The first words out of his mouth all week.

Detective Pooky took a long sip of his coffee,

This was going to be a long interrogation

Pooky slid the steaming hot cup of coffeee across the table to the Alien,

Sometimes a little gesture could have good results.

"I'm gonna slide my vote off you, and maybe we can just talk?"

"Now I'm gonna suspend my disbelief for a moment and just assume we're on the same team"

"Who are the killers? Who are the bad guys? You're a psychic Pokemon, surely you got a lead for me?"

The Alien paused for a second, one word coming out of his mouth "Mini"

A frown crossed Pook's face, Mini MegaByte, Metro City Celebrity Chef, a closet chainsaw murderer!?

"Tell me more"
