It's shitty to say no but, with the pace that it's going it feels like it's not a Good or Fun thing for me until there's less people but also I know that I'm gonna be dead before that point /because/ I'm not putting in the effort until there's like, less. It's a bad cycle.

Getting into this game doesn't mean you need to be at the pace of Me/Morph

Generally my philosophy or whatever is as follows

Post whatever you want as long as it doesn't turn into spam or actively harmful

I don't think you're either, but maybe a bit directionless? I have to tell myself though out of respect of you (shocker) that you playing possum is something you'd be possibly open to

Thesis: ManateeDude is a Werewolf With Vecna


Part 1: Underlying Knowledge That The Reader May Find Useful

1 - Morph the Cat and ManteeDude, along with an unnamed third player, are in a Masonry that is mod-explained to potentially include a Wolf, but none of us can be Mafia or Malefactor.
2 - Within that PT, ManateeDude (this morning) claimed explicitly to have never been in a hood before, to explain her unsuredness of how to engage or use one
3 - ManteeDude was in a neighborhood in Mini Normal 2218, and while she did not post, she was a serious topic of discussion, and she had access to the PT.
4 - Morph the Cat explicitly heavily townreads the third person in this Masonry.


Part 2: Perspective Slip

In post 2109, ManateeDude wrote:to elaborate on vecna, i really like that hes not afraid to comment on small things and give out opinions where
as a wolf
one could avoid engaging in fear of getting in shit
So... you're in a masonry (guaranteed by the mod not to contain mafia or malefactor), and are asked your opinion on a specific player... and you explicitly defend them as not being a wolf, as opposed to groupscum of any kind? Why is this? It's because you ARE a wolf with them, you know they're not mafia so you don't need to help them with that part. You don't particularly care if Morph the Cat finds out the Mafia team.


Part 3: Meta Homework




From a meta perspective, this game is somewhat anomalous for you. During the last few hours, you've used more emojis than you usually use in an entire game, regardless of your alignment. At first we thought this might be something unique to your scum game, but it's actually unique to
this
game. You're also posting much more than you usually do. The only recent-ish game I found where you have posted more (though the duration was longer than this game so far), you were a 3rd party bomber in a Grwhatever Idea game. So what's unique about this game? You'll have to supply that answer. You've played bastard multiball. You've played Normals of various sizes. You've played Opens. To a lesser extent you've played newbie and mini themes. Overall, you may tend to post more as town than as scum, but you've also replaced in as both alignments and replaced out (at least once) as scum, so some of your ISOs are quite short regardless of alignment.

This cursory look was meant to confirm if you'd ever been in a neighborhood before, and to satisfy a pique about your dropping a bunch of emojis in the space of a couple hours. Given you HAVE played in a game with a neighborhood before, in a mini normal game that ended earlier this week, even though you didn't post in the neighborhood (all your game posting took place within 24 hours of having replaced in) per the neighborhood OP you had access to the neighborhood. We're really, REALLY surprised and suspicious because you didn't mention anything about this game when I asked in our PT.

In general, your towngames tend to feature direct aggression on players that stand out to you, whereas your scumgames tend to focus on a more laidback style of posting.
Quoting this because big words and me pagetop thief.

Thanks for the respect but I do just sometimes Not play games.

I get it actually. I enjoy your presence regardless of what alignment you have. I've decided for theme games I'm pretty much just going to try and stay at the top because that's how I don't fall behind. This is not a strategy that is healthy in a lot of ways. Effective maybe? Depends. I think if you want to find yourself as a slanker (and you're just town) you have capability to give potent thoughts and my read on you could be based on gamestate and how I'm reading it

No this doesn't turn into a townread so before you go shouting

For theme games I'm just not going to join big ones unless I have the energy to throw myself at them more in the future or really really like the theme. I was interested in playing multiball (also I'm not ragging on you @mod so don't take my moping as such) but right now I"m just like, shrugging.

Healthy gamestate (and it's players) creates a more enjoyable dynamic and therefore a memorable game

I can see your point if it were instead directed at one of the spammers like perhaps myself.

I don't think Morph's scraping.
