Who is the mafia?
Mafia: an organized international body of criminals, operating originally in Sicily and now especially in Italy and the US and having a complex and ruthless behavioral code. :wink:

I agree with this. I've seen folks with a guilty mindset try to justify the stupidest things, or play things off as "just a joke." If they're willing to cover up that dumpster fire, what are they hiding in their apartment?

Media is already plural. The singular is medium.

Just an FYI.

In post 183, Redados wrote:Yeah. (ignoring last game) this game Shelly has been pretty active and pushing. I don't necessarily agree with her pushes because she reaallly does not like being scumread. I am still scumreading her.

(using last game) I don't agree with Shelly's constant pushing because she was doing that last game; she kept yelling at MiniMegabyte for "scumslipping" (Mini was town). I think it's not helpful to latch onto small things and use them to justify a scumread. Sometimes you have a feeling you can't justify, but I think it's disingenuous to pull weak justification for your scumread. In retrospect, I may have done that with my initial scumread of Shelly, so I'm revising my scumread from a justified one to a gut one.

(ignoring last game) ItalianoVD has not been super active but he's posted enough. He's given reads and had conversations with people. I don't really have a handle on his alignment yet.

(using last game) something someone else said about how Italiano's playstyle might make him look scummier than he is resonates with me. I spent a lot of last game oscillating back and forth whether Italiano was scum or town and my impression is that he could hide it well enough if he were scum. It makes me scared to townread him or scumread him, although I'm townreading him now. I do feel like he was more active and off-the-cuff last game, but I haven't gone back and really ISOd and compared, which I will do at some point.
Hmm..
That was off the cuff so I'm curious to hear your reaction.
it made me feel joy inside
This post should be making me feel good about Frog, but...

1) Why did it take you so long to respond?

...and...

2) Did such a response really merit an "I'm planning to respond" ptap post?

Who do you think the mafia is? You’re reading the game. What have you come up with? I could tell you, but I don’t want it to persuade your thinking.

How do you define "scummy" if not as "indicative of scum"?
To behave as though one is scum/aligned with the mafia.

I think the things which are usually labeled scummy often come from townie players.

I'm liking Casey. I am townreading her.

I've been thinking about it, and I think that we should policy-lim Rocknil for inactivity. Whether he is town or scum, he is going to make it to a lim-lo situation and that seems unacceptable to me.

I am fine with that.
rocknil said he was going to look for the scum team though, so I think we should at least give him that chance to get his thoughts out in the case he is town. In fact, if he does flip town, I will be questioning my townreads on you and Italiano.
Casey seems fine.

Consider this a ghost vote on Rocknil. Not putting him to E-1 yet because we still have time left in the day.

Please post a full reads list in the following format:

"Town
--
Person 1
Person 2
Person 3
--
Scum"

With Person 1 being the towniest and Person 3 being the scummiest. Please include the entire playerlist that isn't yourself. Please give us more to work with!

You're not reading this game if you can't figure out what my reads are so far.

What is up with people safeguarding their thoughts this game?

This is noncommittal AF.

English isn't your first language, correct?

Willing to give a pass for that.

Considering I learned English before I ever entered kindergarten, you could say it is.
