I don't like this whole exchange. Feels disingenuous to be focusing so hard on Ahri and trying to force anahit to have a proper read based on a single RVS vote.

Also I don't want to spend the whole game trying to parse walls of purple prose

This is a pretty strange read, I think anahit does feel marginally townier than Mad but I got the impression that anahit was the one forcing basically the entire exchange.

No tea for you. Your invite to my table is being handed to the teapot with Lady Grey inside it. How the good Lady fit inside it is quite the dilemma but alas as are most things we find here.

the logic of it just seemed like the less potentially relevant aspect of the post to me like if we are functioning under 'all posts are ai' which is kinda necessary for this stage of the game as you say we are only 40 posts into the game et cetera then it seems like that is more likely the ai part rather than the forced logic

I don't believe all posts are AI, or that pretending that they are is necessary.

I strongly disagree with this post!

One of my favorite outfits is my longsleeve white with horizontal black striped shirt, black tights, my spongey cottony white shin length skirt, all with black flats with little black bows on them and the white Tori Burch purse my cousin got me for Christmas.

This is an alignment indicative post and I expect Morning Tweet to reset my prod timer to 36 hours from now.

Which part?
I think the first part is fairly obviously true, the second part is definitely debatable but in my experience I don't find that trying to force reads leads to anything productive (different from forcing reactions)

The first part is true. I think more posts are AI than people want to believe but it's not literally all of them are AI.

Forcing stuff can make for really good interactions. It's just impossible to generate "bad information" in mafia if the interpreter can make the interpretations and is cautious with signal to noise. Like the law of entropy (the law of entropy backwards?) or something

we don't have to agree on this to win this mafia game obv

i guess maybe it isn't a vocabulary issue - as i do understand each of the words individually - my failing is more in compilation as some of the sentences i am left thinking 'what does that mean though'

I ask you to attempt the same, and should your thoughts see the light I will add mine to the mixture and see what we gain.

but, i did share my thoughts on ahri's post,

i would prefer 'she' if you'd like to rely on a single default pronoun for me -

ani would be my preferred abbreviation of anahit, if anyone feels the need to abbreviate for any reason,

she is my preferred pronoun for anahit, if you'd like a pronoun for referring to the entity that signs into the account anahit and so forth i guess i would prefer it, the space between et cetera, but she is also okay for this purpose as well,

hm, it is like, i do think i was mostly "forcing" (as you say) the exchange but i think radical rat is referring to mad hatters tea party's insistence that i give a hard read of ahri as if the exchange didn't come about in response to mad hatters tea party's read of ahri and subsequent vote, which also felt kinda hm, to me, but, need more distance from

all posts are either made by mafia or not...

but yeah sometimes i get lost in rabbitholes that's certainly true

do you have any thoughts on the game so far?

want to play a round of best post/worst post with me?

Sure but how about we play at a different time aka not now because I'm at my phone and haven't read and don't feel like reading rn because I see a lot of words.

this though!!!

one time during a mafia game ame explained to me that 'posting is good for town though' and everything about mafia made more sense

we could simply play a different game at that future point in time when you feel like reading and so forth, if you'd like, as best post/worst post loses it's usefulness once there are A LOT of posts in the game as singling one out is both very very easy and also mostly meaningless as body of work becomes much more relevant unless there is an extreme outlier in either the best or worst category and if there is an extreme outlier to you at this point or further into the game i would expect you to point it out anyway instead of having to look closely at the rvs posts to choose

I miss ame so much

VOTE: greeting

I agree more posting is good for town, although one big part of it is not wasting time talking about parts that are less relevant.
I'm not entirely sure Mad Hatter's talk so far is genuine, but I'm not discounting the possibility.
Don't find it likely scum would draw that attention to themselves early, but it's possible.

Conclusion: I think I should keep an eye on the Hatter

The Radical Rat is a curious creature, I do wonder if the Radiant Rodent with Rapier, Ready is any relation to you...

Your vote has a most repugnant aroma to it. You should get that checked.

That the Ancient Queen speaks in monochome has amused me.

Should anyone ever need clarification of the textual tirade from my posts, you have only need ask - and it shall be rephrased.

Ani your judgement currently remains to be decided, I do not trust you, and I was rather hoping that your brilliance would shine as white as moon against the darkest skies which is part of why the challenges were laid out as they were.

Your read was lackluster and obscure, you have given Ahri much more consideration than what you've posted would imply and I was hoping to probe into that. The machinations of the mind are quite marvellous. Even more so when one is mad or malicious.

The strength of your read did not matter. Merely the strength of your stance and conviction which have been shown in other ways.

I do fear you missed the pun regarding Art and Party.

On a more serious note, and understand I am attempting to speak as plainly as this guise permits, I am grateful for the clarification over your pronouns, and pardon the assumption but I am glad to see more systems being more open about their being on this forum.

Happy to agree to disagree, I also don't think it'll be useful to argue about it.

This is a scummily noncommittal take

You expect me to be able to commit on another players alignment on page 3?
