One of my favorite outfits is my longsleeve white with horizontal black striped shirt, black tights, my spongey cottony white shin length skirt, all with black flats with little black bows on them and the white Tori Burch purse my cousin got me for Christmas.

This is an alignment indicative post and I expect Morning Tweet to reset my prod timer to 36 hours from now.

This is too cute.

Are you pockiting me again?

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

I think Tory Burch makes the cutest little ballet flats but they are grossly overpriced but sometimes you must make sacrifices for nice looking shoes but my feet are disgustingly huge and totally would never fit in them.

[PookyTheMagicalBear]

SirCakes where did you go and why haven't you yelled at me for being an evil bear yet ? ~.~

[Isis]

I don't really remember liking any of Tory Burch's shoes, I'm basic and wear Rothy's

[Isis]

I also found it salient that Edensflame's post was super hedgy but it's almost so excessively hedgey it doesn't count as being scummy the way hedging generally is? And I don't directly see scum benefit.

[Vanderscamp]

You expect me to be able to commit on another players alignment on page 3?

No, I just don't think town is as likely as scum to caveat every statement.

[Vanderscamp]

The scum benefit is to not make waves.

I don't think hedginess in excess starts becoming town, and I did not like Eden's defensiveness about it either.

[mc esther]

ive definitely been that hedgy and got that defensive over it as town before. perhaps this is an unreasonable extrapolation -- just because i hedge as town, doesnt mean it's not a legitimate tell for most players -- but yeah ive always been skeptical of [especially early-game] hedginess as a "real" scumread.

what's more questionable to me is the way that their [rather inconclusive] conclusion is kinda phrased as an fos, but not accompanied by a vote. it's not like flame doesnt believe in frivolous votes, they did an rvs.

idk i still kinda wanna wagon greeting rn, but if that's not happening, sure, flame could be fun.

[SirCakez]

The first part is true. I think more posts are AI than people want to believe but it's not literally all of them are AI.

Forcing stuff can make for really good interactions. It's just impossible to generate "bad information" in mafia if the interpreter can make the interpretations and is cautious with signal to noise. Like the law of entropy (the law of entropy backwards?) or something

we don't have to agree on this to win this mafia game obv

Why get in an argument over such a minor difference?

[SirCakez]

I agree more posting is good for town, although one big part of it is not wasting time talking about parts that are less relevant.
I'm not entirely sure Mad Hatter's talk so far is genuine, but I'm not discounting the possibility.
Don't find it likely scum would draw that attention to themselves early, but it's possible.

Conclusion: I think I should keep an eye on the Hatter

VOTE: Edens flame
This post is basically a bunch of words that means nothing

[SirCakez]

Ironic that your post about someone else hedging is hedgy in itself

[SirCakez]

SirCakes where did you go and why haven't you yelled at me for being an evil bear yet ? ~.~

When I notice one of your posts I will!

[Greeting]

During these early stages of the game the best indicators of alignment generally the first post one makes upon arrival to the game and the grandificance of their entrance is significant. Most other posts are generally absolute drivel lesser to my mad ramblings when I begin to regret inviting our dear friends the Tweedles to tea.

Really? In my experience, RVS reads are quite poor.

Now, should we perhap turn our vision to the offensive post in current debate which formed the basis of my "random" vote, and while we are there I shall be more than happy to provide you with a gift of insight so that your sight may perhaps match my sight as we gaze upon this game and find our dear enemies...

VOTE: AidansFlame

flame = red

red = color

color = mafia

The connection provided here is quite simple - even I face a challenge of making it overly verbose .

A fire generally burns a shade of red, where red is a colour and therefore it is indicative of mafia the colour red also is traditionally used to signify a member of the informed faction so the correct logic here perhaps could be that The Red Fire burns with the Red Hatred of the mafia. Or to simplify, Fires are red, red is scum, and colour is also scum and so theretofore etcetera etcetera this person is scum.

My own logic is significantly more simple than the logistical marathon of the firey kitsune mage, and that logic is simply that I do no recognise the colour red, as within this world it is an abomination. The kitsune mage has skill with the flame and as such has the knowledge of these "colours" that the fires would burn HENCEFORTH the knowledge of the colour and the logicistal marathon taken to endorse this vote is in itself manifested in deceit which is within the realms of the hateul hue-ful hubris of their kind as they attempt to beat over the uninformed majority and bring the horror of colour to this realm.

*sips tea*

Does this suffice your needs? I would expect an intriguing rebuttal as we appear to now be breaking RVS with you at the helm.

Are you sure it's tea that you're drinking at your party?

[Greeting]

I have read all of the posts so far and they're NAI to be fair.

[anahit]

Ani your judgement currently remains to be decided, I do not trust you, and I was rather hoping that your brilliance would shine as white as moon against the darkest skies which is part of why the challenges were laid out as they were.

it is like

i really do not understand the expectation of me - like, 'i do not trust you! but also i was hoping your brilliance would shine so brightly!'

i am not even sure whether or not you are saying you do not trust that i am town or that you do not trust me to find the mafia or both

The machinations of the mind are quite marvellous. Even more so when one is mad or malicious.

i guess the 'mad' part of this can likely be applied to me though i guess maybe i would rather we didn't

but,

the malicious part kinda feels like you're just trying to be like, 'i do not know your alignment anahit!!!!'

I do fear you missed the pun regarding Art and Party.

hm

Though I daresay should you attempt to come to the 'art of the vote you find the Mad Hatters Tea P

art

y to always be a colourful affair outside these realms.

i assumed you were showing familiarity with me and how i play with the should you attempt to come to the art of the vote bit, which was then furthered by the my finding you to be a colourful affair outside of these realms, ie, from past lives; or so i thought

i also assumed the bolded art to be an intentional misdirect as it seemed unlikely to me that you were either the account art or someone i had talked to at great length about art as that list is not particularly long

though it could easily have been a more passing reference to someone i had a minor interaction with about art at some point as that list is rather long

oh! i think maybe your fear that i missed the pun was due to the anne boyer quote:

i have done so much to be ordinary and made a record of this

not including how that section of the poem ends:

i got nearer to death, as did you

but also it is quite possible you are trying to communicate something else entirely to me, and, uh, i have been trying to turn off the subtext thing as much as i can because like, i quickly begin connecting everything into one very very large ball - here is my one night stand spectator pt iso so you can see what happens when i do not turn this off

[anahit]

idk i still kinda wanna wagon greeting rn, but if that's not happening, sure, flame could be fun.

hm hm hm

[Radical Rat]

I have read all of the posts so far and they're NAI to be fair.

You think every post in the game so far is NAI?

[anahit]

idk i still kinda wanna wagon greeting rn, but if that's not happening, sure, flame could be fun.

hm hm hm

a) it would be nice if both just started posting sortable content to circumvent the need for wagoning

but also!

b! if you think greeting is currently the most likely mafia do you not think there is some equity between greeting and vanderscamp?

[anahit]

also sircakez and mad hatters tea party i guess to much lesser extents, but mostly vanderscamp yea

VOTE: Edens flame
This post is basically a bunch of words that means nothing

it is like, unless i was focused on a partner of edensflame's (so somewhere in {ahri, mad hatters tea party, greeting(?)}) then i think edensflame more or less telling me to try not to get distracted/focus on relevant things/not waste time is probably +town

right outside of the partner being focused on that seems kinda unlikely to come from mafia to me? does that make sense

[anahit]

though it could easily have been a more passing reference to someone i had a minor interaction with about art at some point as that list is rather long

oh! could also be telephone pictionary related

or i could be wrong about the unlikely i guess

[Galron]

I'm here and something
