Datisi’s responses do not ease my anxiety about his alignment.

why does frogster sound so NEW, it's weird vibes for a 2011 join date

Shade or curious?

no offense meant, new isn't bad. but when the way you are approaching and interacting with the game doesn't line up with how i would think an experienced player would, it could be cause you feel awkward and have trouble engaging genuinely as maf.

but on the other hand, if you are more new (and looks like you don't have a ton of games played actually) then it makes you make more sense to me

You give off an impression of being experienced yourself, yet seemingly are not?

i have more experience with chat mafia but have some forum experience too

[skitter30]

If Datisi is scum then I’m not sure what to make of skitter30’s reaction.

You bring up a good point that she doesn’t even seem interested in Datisi’s alignment or why we are all pushing. I don’t think she says that about a partner so early. The plausible world to me is that if Datisi is town then skitter30 is scum whiteknighting Datisi.

Ah, that makes sense. I still think your posting was somewhat provocative so I think it's totally expected that Yeet would be concerned by it. Was that what you expected also?

yes and no. i'm used to there being meme wagons on me early game, especially from people that don't really know me. there are different things that i expect from town/scum pushing me though, which i will elaborate on in:

re skitt's 70 - yeet was the first to attack me, they're stubborn, and not really responding to my questioning. i find that behaviour comes from either bold-scum or town who either loves reaction testing or is REALLY sure in their page 2 reads. idk who yeet is, so i can't definitely say if they're likely to be bold as scum.

tenebro on the other hand walked in, saw that i'm getting pressure, dropped a vote on me based on weak reasoning, and left. it feels much more likely to be a scum approach, lack of boldness (don't wanna stand out) and weak reasoning (scum wants to appear how they're thinking through the game, have a nice thought process, etc)

not reading the million pedits

Ugh its not letting me select-and-quote the bit that i want to

But r.e. tenebro - you only had the one vote from yeet at the time, and arguably frog was under more pressure from yeet just then, so i'm not sure i buy the 'scum plying votes on you to fit in and find an easy place to stick a vote' train of thought

The initial vote seemed fine/nai to me

[skitter30]

It's probably worth noting that I expect Skitter and Datisi have probably played with each other multiple times before and so I imagine Skitter thinks themselves able to read Datisi to greater degree of accuracy than other players in this game can read Datisi, which may explain their posting re: Datisi.

Yes, basically

[DeasVail]

I think I agree with Skitter re: Tenebro. I don't have huge cause for concern yet.

If anybody doesn't behave like other people of similar experience, it's probably Yeet.
He sounds extremely new to forum mafia since he wants to defenestrate someone early, but that might be because he's used to a different playing style on EpicMafia.

/shrug

i think votes are what speaks volume more than words and he's been consistently calling me scum, wasn't he calling frogs town? or did i make that up

[GeneralWu]

Oops it just glitched.

[DeasVail]

tbh no one currently posting is causing great concern for me

[Datisi]

Frogsterking is confirmed town to me. I will not accept any vote on Frogsterking.

On the other hand, Datisi is most likely scum this game.

yeah idk how you think this means frogs was under more pressure from yeet than i was @skitt

[Yeet]

After readinf 71 multiple times, i actually dont think i got any clarity from it >.>

Why is it more believeable that me/dats would townbin you than for yeet to do the same thing?

~

Nai = non alignment indicative

In other words i'm saying what dats has done thus far is neither townie nor scummy for him

skitter30, I don’t believe you are being consistent in your explanation.

I don’t believe that you would say that you’re not sure why people think Datisi is scum when you know exactly how he plays and believe this to be his town self.

You are assuming that we know him implicitly there. We do not know Datisi, so why would you expect us to have the same opinion on him with your knowledge?

You would’ve simply said that Datisi’s posts are “NAI”, without the part where you’re “not sure why people dislike him”.

It doesn’t make sense, it’s not a real read, and your approach to this whole thing feels like it’s not coming from a genuine solving headspace - rather it was feeble attempt to provide content and you felt the urge to white knight him.

Yes, basically

So again, if this was true, skitter30 would not have led with “idk why people dislike dats”.

[Yeet]

VOTE: frogsterking for making the first thread of serious conversation in this game be a really dumb one

42 fireisred trying to shut down scumhunting during start of day noted

getting people engaged in talking about thr game delay and who may be scum as a result of it is directly counterproductive to scumhunting bc it's dumb and is not going to result in anything useful

cmv

I mean while their approach is wrong, they did immediately give us something to talk abt and thus got the game moving, i dont think thats counterprodictive to scumhunting at all

~

I'm not really sure why people are disliking dats thus far, he's been largely nai to me

To be clear, this is the offending post. Something is wrong here. Maybe Datisi is town after all.

[tenebrousluminary]

Yeet seems trustworthy and makes a good point. But I think I'll stick with my vote for now.
