shhhh im letting her pocket me
i think its slightly town indicative. i don't think that ari's main priority as scum is to match how she'd play as town, and i don't think most people would really would have that reaction or that she would expect them to. so if it was performative it was a very directed performance

Do you believe this is due to AI programming, or a simple human instinct?
Is this going to be a game long gimmick
I'm going to be honest none of these posts or the bolded questions inside of them really feel like genuine thoughts to me. Or rather, they are very surface level questions pushed out so that you have something to say
I'm not really getting the sense you actually want the answers to any of these questions nor that you hope some productivity will spark out of them. I might be being unfair if this is a strategy you've relied on in the past but the first one especially pings me because it strikes me as highly unlikely that anyone would be able to get reasonable value out of trawling through past games of a bunch of players they are unfamiliar with
as the very first step
to getting to know them. It seems like a way to seem productive but actually avoid having to prod people about this game. Instead it would seem more natural to me if you were prodding people about this game.
granted, you are doing that too... sorta. but "how to post photos" and the "is this going to be a game long gimmick" are both questions that like don't really require an answer, or I'm not sure what value you're hoping to gain by posting them in thread
i also find the part of the fireisred's post that you latched onto like the least interesting part because it seems clearly jokey
Yes we are in RVS and you claim nothing has been pinging you as off - but that means I expect your following questions to be trying to prod people that you think are off or just trying to get people out of their comfort zone, but I feel like I'm seeing more just posts to fill space
pedit:
it is very possible your playstyle is more fluffy here and I am misreading you based off that. how would you describe how you're trying to play this early game?
Probably one of the posts you could successfully deduce Dannflor was mafia from. When you project so much rationality into an emotional and posty player like Kuti, you probably have bad intentions while floofing up an ineffective way of looking at an alignment.
That tone though, impressive.

Roden, Furtive maybe town from page 8 behaviour.
Fireisred is peculiar.
The first two I kinda get, don't really agree with Dannflor. I don't know where you got Loki being mafia from. They seem very town, their entire gameview is based on mafia trying to get them out. I don't think scum would play like that nor have I ever seen it.

Never.
I love doing fake shit, like calling someone town and then calling them fake 2 posts later.

I can't put my finger on it. It just feels like they're borderline providing wrong opinions that are only wrong when you think abut them.
Roden is very likely town for this. While people who have reads that are diametrically opposed to mine can of course also be too, I tend to tr players who are mindmelding with me in general.

holding two opposing thoughts in your brain in short succession is rare for most people
That doesn’t necessarily mean they’re good at it though. That’s how I eventually realized sheep was scum in Forrest Fire. His progression on pretty much anything made 0 sense.
@Greeting can yoiu link a town game of his where you had a similar type of opening as in this game for me please?
Because when I saw that opening, I was struck by in my brief metadive I couldn’t find any towngames with you making a similar kind of entrance but it’s possible you have and I somehow missed it?
