Was this towards me or Thor? Mistakes happen. Unless you're perfect and never made one and have a photographic memory so can learn/memorise 29 names in an instant you're in no position to judge.

I'm more than happy with Thor's scenario though because it's never going to eventuate.
i missed any slip what was your slip safetydance?

In post 872, Cephrir wrote:A.) Those few lines make all the difference. For all I know you generated that list using an RNG.

B.) I'm also complaining about its actual contents (scum section including my 3 best townreads and literally only one player I think is scum). If your list is going to be that controversial and scumread a whole bunch of players no one else is you need to explain it.
You disagreeing with it doesn't make it controversial. I really don't get why you should have to have an arbitrary amount in your scums reads. I don't know the number of scum. Do you? Last Faraday game I played had just 4+1. So why do you have 6? Know something we don't?

You're filled with more hubris than the spawn of Thor and Benmage marriage if you think my reads HAVE to align with yours.

I'm curious though, what are your three strong town-reads that I have in my scum pile?
Find me someone else in this game that thinks Nautilus or P&J are scum that isn't predicated on you having scumslipped.

I didn't have a problem with Nautilus' list because A.) it was a not-clearly-town list not a scumlist and B.) Those are all players I can imagine someone scumreading.

Also, you didn't address point A.) in 872. I want reasons for some of your reads, at LEAST the guy you're voting for.

Your reads don't have to align with mine, but they have to align with something remotely resembling reality. It looks like you pulled names out of a hat.

I disagree. It would be a bold move for scum to give out so many scumreads this early on. It is definitely a strange list, but I don't see much scum motivation there.

Seriously? It shouldn't require an explanation... A list like that draws attention to yourself which has obviously occurred in this game. It would be beneficial to scum not to make half the people in the game upset.

@KKB- No offense, but I can't believe you're being serious right now. What's so hard to grasp about a large list with no reasons being a stupid move for scum? It's also a stupid move for town, therefore it's null. Please clarify what is wrong with what I just said because I'm not wrong.

I wanna chat with him. Can you bring him out to play too?

Does guapo's rule have anything to do with why you voted quadz?

When did you get a good townread on Thor and why do you have a good townread on me? I figured I would look too town by now :(

Also, does this feel like a multiball game? I don't want it to be.
the votes were mine. I would have to look at those posts to see if they were mac's and tbh even then I can't always tell cos sometimes I forget what I post and he can sound just like me.

mac told me at the start that he has been having internet issues so his participation would be sporadic. I considered using 1 of the other hydras, antihero would have been fun. but I love this hydra and I like him with this group of players, it seems to be a good fit.

re: quadz - that (sort of) and the post was a wrong note. and yeah it does feel kind of like multiball in that the dispersion of the town herd seems like it is coming from a couple of different directions so either 2 (mebbe even 3) teams or very very good scum. or it is a game with a shitload of indies altho I have not really seen that on this site. personally I think every1 has a seekrit wc to drive mollie insane the noise to signal ratio is off the charts and I am sticking with that until proven otherwise.

I had moved thor to town when I considered that claiming miller was cheap play as scum but thor has kindly disabused me of that notion so he is back to feeling all sorts of wrong. I am not in love with kanye's #800 to #802 but his entrance looked really strong to me.

I have you as town but as you know I can get weird on you in a heartbeat. it depends on how well you can continue to dance and as you know even if you are scum I will still work with you and mebbe sheep your reads until I sort shit out. :mrgreen:

but for right now, you just feel town to me.

@ every1 else

it is almost like some of you are acting like you don't know me and it is confusing.

ftr, I guess i really don't give reasons for my reads, the majority of them are based on timing and rhythm play which is a foreign concept to a lot of people and hard to explain in a wy that makes sense. I have a hard time tuning out town noise when it is super noisy and it is pretty noisy this game. I will vote my town reads to see who follows on to them, sheep my scum reads to what they will do, vote somebody for the hell of it or push on a town read to firm it up or call a jihad and push a scumread into the ground. there are reasons why I don't always give reasons for my votes, it is cos I am trying to fluidly glide in this game we call mafia while still learning the swordplay on this site. but there is almost always a reason for what I do, even if I am not always comfortable being transparent about it. I am orientating myself in the game and it may not look the like the same way you do it but it is what I do.

@ thor

okay fine I can't meta you blah blah blah are you freaking happy now. I will just make up reasons from now and get creative with them that way they will make sense to you.

@ zden

you asked me something I think and now I forgot what it was. :oops: I will look for it.

Stupendous, when someone has too many scum reads they are keeping their options open as to who they will be able to vote without raising eyebrows. It's a position that is beneficial for scum to take.
