Micro 161: No-Newbie Newbie (over)

[goodmorning]

Good. That's the point.

[EspeciallyTheLies]

Good. That's the point.

How does that help us?

[goodmorning]

It doesn't yet. It ought to soon.

[EspeciallyTheLies]

I am assuming you are waiting for rach, who has been less than active in other places i've been as well.

[²]

It's been good for the rest of us I think. In your exchange I have found reinforcement of my suspicion of him, specifically his precedent of "non-answers".

VOTE: A_Stone

I already had you as a town read and this post solidifies it. Not only because of the vote, but also because you noticing the "non-answers" tendency (as you put it) shows that you've been reading the conversation.

Hey everyone,

I am starting a new job, and my old one is coming to a close. Unfortunately they are overlapping and my new job doesn't want to wait for my two weeks notice (and being the person I am, I do not like burning bridges with old employers). So, essentially, I am going to have some 16 hour days the next two weeks. This may lead to a decrease in my already relatively low activity levels.

Good. That's the point.

Who else thinks we should policy lynch ^2 for spamming?

I feel that you're poking fun at people for wanting to vote 2 for his posting.

So yeah...

Anyone else find it troubling that Syndrome has time to write why he unvoted me, and yet doesn't have enough time to write why he voted someone else :/

And even if he'd found me as less scummy than Rach, why would he follow a lynch that didn't have support instead of one that was a viable lynch option, it just doesn't sit right with me.

Just out of curiosity if you found Syndrome’s behavior “troubling” and it didn’t sit right with you why didn’t you vote for him? Are you going to follow your own advice and withhold your vote until a viable lynch option materializes even if it’s not one of your strong scum reads?

I’m beginning to like your bandwagon more and more.

2 has been my most consistent town read, their posts have shown a willingness to engage that seems townish to me.

ETL has done a few things that I didn’t immediately like but has done a good job of explaining when questioned that seems genuine without backpedaling.

Rach was an earlier town read for me. She is the only player I’ve played with before and her early posts seemed similar to that game where she was town, but since she has gone full lurker mode her town stock has taken a little bit of a hit.

GM and RC are nullish reads that I throw into the town pile by POE.

I think both scum can be found in some configuration of TNE, Syndrome and A_Stone. Individually each one has looked scummy. I just don’t know which combination is most likely.

Your assumption would be less than correct.

How in the world do you have a Null read on me?

I can understand why. I thought you were probably town, but you've been acting weird and dragging out your little ploy to some great reveal. That doesn't help, not now and not later. If you are trying to figure someone out, put a vote down. There's nothing like a good vote to get someone talking.

[Mr E Roll]

Because you appear to be intentionally unhelpful. This doesn’t seem like something typical scum would do as they want to blend in. However it also doesn’t seem to be something that typical town would do as it doesn’t help with their win-con.

Since I can’t figure out your motives you get to be null.

Maybe if you starting sharing your thought processes it would be easier to get a firm read on you.

I think this is a bit narrow, but I do agree with essentially all of your reads, including the null ones.

I have. I am intentionally obfuscating to clarify my position on a certain player(s) to myself in hopes of being able to present evidence of it to everyone.

well, then don't get excited when people read you as null.

It's a strong statement. I'd expect it to garner some kind of reaction. Not a huge deal though.

hey guys someo of us do have RL outside of mafia games

Anyways after being prodded (ouchie)

I am still feeling pretty good about my vote on Stone dude...

GM has gone way up on my scumdar too...


RC you already are not posing much... hopefully we can get some content soon, though I do understand about the job issue


Still feel good about my town read on Mr E as well it feels much like our game together.

There goes all respect I ever had for you, Rach. Good job insinuating that people being active doesn't have a "real life" outside of mafia games. You probably couldn't have been more insulting even if you tried.

[thenewearth]

crap... Sorry about being out. I forgot to declare another V/LA for my medical exam.

Give me a moment, pl0x

[RachMarie]

I was being tongue in cheek not serious, jeez

But yeah I have been somewhat swamped lately

[thenewearth]

Well nothing much happened anyways...

[EspeciallyTheLies]

... are we playing the same game?

its so fucking obvious you two are scum together I seriously just fucking lost all interest in this game.

I remember buldermar making a very similar comment to another player who said something about having a real life that takes precedence over mafia. I can't remember what game it was in, unfortunately.

I found Rach's response to the comment a little squiffy, though.

I think I can see why you'd interpret things that way. However, I have before been insulted by the snarky "I'm inactive because unlike you I have a life" comment, and it pisses me off. I don't really know what to tell you other than that it's absolutely sincere.
