how is meg still alive choo choo

I am a very sneaky goon.

cheeky too!

[Greeting]

Does anyone else agree with Vivax's interpretation? This is a strange hill for him to choose to die on. I think it's a little towny to do so, though. Town often have a lot of pride in their own view of things.

Vivax

claims that

UNOwen

's ISO is as if he's the only player in the game (151), though having looked into

Vivax

's ISO, I can see that he's overly focused on

UNOwen

as well.

I am townreading

Vivax

for tone, this thing going on between them is NAI imo. 119 suggests it's something coming from a past game.

UNOwen

is... *shrugs*. The kind of player to policy eliminate Day 1 if we cannot find someone scummy in the next 12 days.

[Greeting]

This is an ISO read of someone who wanted to have a fun game but is disappointed to have drawn scum.

Does

MegAzumarill

in your opinion not like rolling scum?

Goodbye

Why do you think so?

Malcolm also a good vote. Chipping at the edges of ideas without ideas.

Context, 25 posts from this game starting at post 168 by Lowell
What did you see, Lowell?

Also, on a Gera note, pay attention to how Gera holds up over time. The entrance is weak, but also kinda whatever. Gera as scum in a game of 13 basically could not hold up for an entire game. By the time we were in day 3, he had regressed to near-total uselessness.

It was hard in that game when 2 other town were useless too.
But you are right, I think I am obvious scum

Could you expand on what you think is going on between me and Vivax?

I don't think that is what Vivax is complaining about. Below is what Vivax is complaining about instead.

Spoiler: post 106

Why do you not believe that I had a good reason to find your entrance worth a vote? The last game we played in together you used the same and I didn't know if it was a standard opener of yours.

It's the idea that you didn't know the reason for your vote until Crescent pointed it out that I don't believe.

That's all you're still working with?
To me it seems like a natural way of thinking:
See thing that somehow pings you for pure gut reasons. Get pointed out that the one who pinged you did the same opener as mafia in the previous game. Conclude that maybe that's why it pinged me because of the latent memory.

It seems like a secondary issue to get hung on at this point in the game.

[Fredrick A Campbell]

Spoiler: post 126

Why does it seem more likely?

Because the alternative is you got spooked by "hello everyone".

Tell me what his post looks like to you and I’ll answer.

Suspicious attempt at saying "don't expect much from me".

Was post 126 telling Vivax what you think geraintm's post looks like to you?

Postscript: post 124 for more context.

[Fredrick A Campbell]

The above is to UNOwen

[Fredrick A Campbell]

Post 122
I just found an even more concise reason why Vivax thinks UNOwen is mafia.

TL;DR: Owen is mafia because it flew over his head how many people who are most likely town did scummy, nonsensical or lazy stuff to attract the reaction he’s displaying now.

It appears UNOwen is not reading Vivax's posts instead of the other way round.

Nr. 2. Gonna need a lot of collateral damage this game, and the recoil might kill me in the process.

I choose number 1.
Now we must play a game of chess.

[Vivax]

I'm not sure how to operate the chessboard and it tried to open a pop-up.

this is more annoying than what Fred was doing earlier

[Vivax]

I always open e2-e4 as white.

We're 100 posts into the game... shouldn't we be paying attention to everyone over time? Cause "by day 3..." this feels a little early for that kind of statement

ehhh it's seeming like it's just how Vivax is, I'm not willing to write Vivax off as town for it, at least not yet, like, it's only 100 posts of a game, and he thinks there's some meaning to gerain's entrance?? I don't even understand what he was arguing nor do I actually care at this point

[Andante]

Posts 21 and 22 suggest that MegAzumarill and Vivax are not both mafia.

Why?

Posts 21 to 22

I don't think this interaction is between two mafia members.

someone goes "why?" and you just repeat what you said...
