Yessiree is on the town list. Not quite on the VFP block but damn close.

@Raya
can you prod the solo names for MiniVirgo?

If this slot doesn't start producing after that, they're going into the scum pile.

weird. i assume when people say "oh i don't like that player did x" that means they think it's suspicious.

are the other things you point out as not liking also you saying you think that it is just non-ai bad play? or just this one instance.

well, I found it odd how STD (...dragons? save?) chose to explain the reason for his lack of followup instead of just following up on dark magician, cause that seemed a bit too self-conscious for a townie

no idea, but it is strange for it to be an even number setup (3:11 instead of 3:10 which is much more common imo)

no there isn't - alignment was randed before we even got roles - setup explicitly says this.

3 letters:

A
G
Z

Z is third
Z is always 3rd because that's the order of the alphabet & in order for a letter to be second there need to be something after it

perhaps we're using different vocabulary because i don't know what this is. i'm asking if prior runs of this game have different amounts of non-town slots, or has it always been the same ratio.

Yes. If they avoid the game after a prod, it's for a reason. You seem worried here?

Apologies, forgot this game started.
I am currently busy working on my website but when I can I will definitely catch up.

Also if we (Mini and myself) ever post without the end-tag please feel free to ask for clarification who that was, I generally am able to remember even if it's way back.

Before I leave again, I saw these and had strong thoughts. You're simply naive if you ever think that's an effective way to read people, tell me why not posting after a prod is more likely to come from scum than from town. Prods are not always effective, and that means nothing of alignment by itself, especially early-game.

And to add further context as to why it's even worse reading into that for us is that Mini never likes day one in games and I am constantly busy working on my websites that I forget about the games until I make a significant effort into catching up.

---

Also off-topic, if you were unaware Mini and I are together and thus I am constantly poking her to post if she doesn't and vice-versa. Our playstyles are opposing as I am more aggressive and she is more distanced in a sense so she feels like she has nothing to add when I post etc. I am clarifying this now in case it comes up later.
