care to expand a little bit with specifics? Cuz I honestly had no vibes at all from any of the posts I read so far (posts before this one I'm quoting)In post 54, Luca Blight wrote:So far getting positive vibes from Icon, Klick and Pilgrim. Somewhat negative vibe from Datisi.
Potential town slip??In post 55, Klick wrote:I know this was just banter, but I'm curious: what do you think the Mafia are talking about in their PT this early in the game?
Datisi town?In post 58, Datisi wrote:Town pings so far from Klick and Icon (as much as he hurts me)
Everyone else is null so far
Seriously?In post 59, Iconeum wrote:I love this post. It has a real feel of towniness surrounding it.

Something about this post rubs me the right way. I think this is a genuine/sincere post. It is totally NAI though. Just saying.In post 77, Billy Pilgrim wrote:@tchill -"purposefully ignorant?". Aside from me saying I don't really understand what's going on in RVS, where else was I purposefully ignorant?
@tchill and Luca - I legitimately struggle with how to discuss my experience. Because I do think it's relevant. I also don't want to overplay it, because then I agree it looks like someone is trying to build in a preloaded excuse for bad play. Now that being said, I think inexperience is relevant as a lens to interpret newer players' play. E.g. if a read requires some level of experience to make, then a newer player will probably need that worked out for them or the read/tell isn't going to make any sense. In my first newbie game I had a level of confidence in my read that wasn't appropriate. When I'm looking at newer players, I now understand that what I perceive as the active newbies typical overconfidence is usually a result of the pressure that other players are putting on them to fit in and look town. After my first game where I made numerous comments about how bad I was playing, I had another town player tell me how scummy that looked. So that I cut out. And in this game I only mentioned that this was my fourth game in response to a question about my experience level.
So I legitimately don't know how to approach this. I'm playing more games (in particular games outside the newbie sub-forum) to get more experience, but until I get that experience, I'm gonna be inexperienced. If it felt like I was using that as a crutch in RVS then I guess that's fair. But RVS to me doesn't really give me much. Cases I can analyze. RVS feels sort of performative.
If you say so... I only have a read on you of that trio
Actually I missed #79. I think that also pings town (same reason why Klick is town)In post 87, Datisi wrote:Is that all you think the Mafia would be talking about right now?In post 79, Billy Pilgrim wrote:Klick, sorry, didn't realize that was to me. No idea what they'd be talking about. Maybe how they should interact or not interact?
Datisi confirmed a townie. She sees exactly what I see.In post 99, Datisi wrote:They're not talking about anything.In post 1, Chemist1422 wrote:
