You’re definitely the weakest full SR I have it’s just I kinda am concerned you’re gonna pockit me again
lol
i feel like i'm nothing like that game but that was also an anonymous game where i was playing deliberately off-meta so it's probably moot
That game isn’t all there is my concern here. I could see you angling towards townreading me from a mile away, so I instantly went shields-up when it came to trusting you here. There’s definite room to change my mind but I think that’s best done through action vs. explanation.

mid catchup posting cuz class is starting : really not a big fan of Ydrasse, mostly fluff but there's still that effort to play the game which idk, now that i think about it might be more town indicative for yeetdrasse specifically, but i dunno VOTE: Ydrase
Really liking pooky otherwise, and gamma feels too agressive to really be scum imho

(sorry for not reading the setup before MT, now that I have it is really awesome though!!)
townlean on that too, although it could also be Dwlee projecting him finding out about events in the scum PT, i doubt that a paid actor would go and straight up say "that's a townslip"

I would've liked to see ANY type of counter to my case on Gamma.... I get it was spoilered but I don't feel differently than I did last night.

Let's please keep in mind of the, state L1 and intention to hammer before EoD occurs, if it does.
would also be nice to leash gamma emerald to eliminate someone who is not me if the throne is a kingmaker type deal on account of this entire push feeling like it might be preemptively designed to explain him doing so
He's been voting and pushing like 2/3 of the game at this point. In this universe why do u think he's setting up to kill u specifically?

There are no power roles so there's no real reason to do this

Yea this wagon on Dunnstral is unlikely to make him play but whatever

You feel very weird and like muted as compared to radio buzz. There iirc u also kinda missed fhe beginning of the game but ur contributions were p quickly p townie. Idk if the difference here is that u need more time to get into the swing pf things, or if ur just scum. Dunno how to differentiate between those universes just yet
Is there anything i can do to help you get into the game?

@galron like 3 posts on top of this u said u werenr sure if gamma is scum + u arent really caughr up / into the game yet. This intent is super premature in that context and doesnt really make sense
Ngl i'm starting to get some cold feet abt gamma
There's been like no resistance, the wagon comp keeps changing, and i dont like how people are popping out of the woodwork to vote him

So ur not caught up, dont have a foothold in the game, dont think anything noteworthy has happened, want to do a reread, dont ger why gamma is scimread, but want to hammer him and think waiting 10 hours to do so is too long.
Is that right?

:shrug:
i don't know what you want from me. no one seems to want me to be alive. it is demoralizing. half of them have only played one game with me and i was scum in that game and they've very wisely observed that i seem similar in this game. i feel the only way i can overcome their perceptions is by flipping town at which point they will realize that i'm actually just good at imitating myself. so it seems like this game is a wash / a price i have to play in order to be able to actually play mafia with this group.
Well, is there anything you think u should be townread for here?
Also this is like weirdlu nihilistic (not sure actually if that's the right word. But like you're willing to die to prove that you're town and make some grand broader point. Which as i write this out i realize is actually p different from radio buzz and might be +town tbh)

like if you're scum and you're sitting at e-2/e-1 and you don't see any viable counterwagons and literally 0 people are listening to you.
is there actually a point in moving your vote around going "this person is scum!" "nah that person is scum!"
like lol how is this even scum indicative behavior

Since I’m not long for this world I may as well leave this as a parting gift.
I think this serves as an express declaration that yes, I have turned my thoughts around on the Gypyx slot somewhat. I also had pings early from Ydrasse but expressly turned that around at a markedly earlier point.
Also, I may not have shown it much in my posting but I was genuinely lost for a time, it just seemed vastly unproductive to make a comment about it rather than working to fix the underlying issues. I am certain I’d have people barking about how I’ve been making a scene about my lack of direction and I’m scum for it if I’d actually been more clear about how lost I’d been when I was struggling with that. So excuse me if I find your viewpoint rather uncharitable.
Ugh idk if scum-gamma feels pressured to lut out a readslidt or is so prickly abt defending the notion that his readslist didnt change

I dont believe i said i thought dwlee/infinity are a team. In fact i'm p sure i said i *didnt* think that

like the fact that she's 'just kinda there' is what i'm finding scummy here.
You've got Infinity, Peta and me in the 'just kinda there' category. I don't disagree that I've been pretty inactive, but other than pushback from Infinity, what do you expect from Peta and from me?
Well for infinity i think the fact that she's occupying that slot runs counter to her town-meta
For u and peta, i'm trying to prod you into doing ai stuff thay i can read
Although at this point i think ur scum for other reasons

I missed this, and reading back skitter never explicity stated that they were a team; I just inferred that.

in the very early game i kind of prefer to hang back until something catches my attention anyway
this game is more or less my re-entry to plying mafia after some time off, where i couldn't muster any enthusiasm whatsoever. i had no desire to read anyone, the mystery of a game had no intrigue for me. now i'm back, i'm in that mindset and i'm eager to play, but i'm not in a place where i feel like i can act with confidence yet.
i am entirely serious when i say stuff about how i plan on being obvious town this game, it's just that it's not yet that time
Ok thanks, this context is helpful.
Given its a large i dont think i need to have u sorted today but just taking note of this and that i expect u to obvtown soonish

Anyone wanna pick a name from this list?
Your kill list has 1 more person from my top tiers than my bottom tiers, and two of the very bottom tier people you have listed are question marks
Not a great PoE imo

Why “processing time”? And out of those names the ones I like best for scum are Cephrir and Dunnstral.
VOTE: Dunnstral
I’ll get things started.
Why ... are you voting dunn over ceph here ...
