Mini 2167: Illicit Substances Mafia (Game Over!)

[Something_Smart]

my brain says that could just be a playstyle difference between us and you prefer to not discuss what'a been talked about but my gut says that's scum play.

This... doesn't sound like something that they would lie about.

Im only in a weeb discord with people from here I thought they just made us a hydra PT for hte game lol

[April Ludgate]

Dang, I asked if I could get a PT earlier when I was posting a lot, so I posted about 7 times in it, and didn’t realize until just now that they were already made.

That’s interesting.

[morph the cat]

They were made before alignments were rolled!
Spayhalf and I told tammycho a story. It was a very sad one, they cried.

If you weren’t a mafia thread creator I might have agonized over whether you were trying to town slip or not here. Instead, I just won’t think about it or acknowledge that it happened at all.

Haha.

[April Ludgate]

Prism, PlusJoyed, MariaR is my way too early solve. Not even sure if I fully scum read all of them.

[Secret Tunnel]

I don't think joyed is scum

I PM’d NachoMod about it, and wasn’t given a link before hand or anything about it, so I didn’t know it was a game thing

[PlusJOYED]

Would you like to share what’s yuck about it?

There was literally no point to do the exercise and it felt quite unnatural/artificial to me. Also, notice how almost everyone else decided to ignore it too

I disagree but looks like SS beat me too it
Also still wanna hear why you TR bulge

They come off as scum who’s null or town reading players. I don’t like the way they “like players” but null read “for safety”. It looks like they’re trying to keep a strong political standing while not giving full momentum to certain players, I being one of them. This also makes sense because I was gaining a little momentum earlier

[midwaybear]

I already told you why. I don't even know why you scumread him, but I already disagree with it.

[PlusJOYED]

I want to hear why Bell's exercise was artificial and why it was pointless, because it doesn't feel like either to me.

Ok, so I am going to acknowledge that, in a vacuum, such a thing is probably helpful. However, context matters. Iirc, the thread was decently active and conversations were flowing. Then, Bell announces that he wants the game to slow down and have everyone out some reads. This would have caused an unnatural rift in the prior flow of the game, and probably started new conversations that might have overshadowed old ones. One theory I have is that Bell was covering for a scumbuddy in trouble maybe Plus. I feel like people saw this and that's why nobody really did what he asked. The whole post is just yucky towncred grab.

that's an interesting take but I disagree

oh i wanna join!

[midwaybear]

Yeah, I don't even know why you scumread Bulge. It seems like your initial reason was the push on Prism, but then you acknowledged that it wasn't as scummy as you thought. Why else do you scumread him?

[PlusJOYED]

Prism, PlusJoyed, MariaR is my way too early solve. Not even sure if I fully scum read all of them.

"x is my solve"
"not even sure if I sr all of them"
i'd like a puff of what you're smoking

also im a lil giddy and fluffposting cuz i finished cleaning my house finally

My biggest gripe is I feel like hes hiding behind hydra confusion a bit.

@joyed IV has been signing it's been me.

Oh yeah, I just visited the private threads and they were there before I even got my role pm.

Wait does that mean you don’t have a drug trip report for us when you die.

i can see that, but intent matters here. I think my reasoning except for remilla maybe for my null slots atm is pretty fair for an early game; some of those guys only made 1 post. Believe me when I say I won't have any null slots by the end of day 1, that's usually how it goes for me. I just need to see more interactions

[PlusJOYED]

Also I think April is town now, I initially was worried about me hopping into his pockets since I liked his style a lot but SRing a pocket makes no sense in my brain, that doesn't seem like the move as scum

this is the first game I played with hydras, so I was initially very confused but I think I got a good grasp on it now ;>

[Bell]

Suddenly, I’m happy i’m not scum partners with joyed.

[PlusJOYED]

Yeah I think I'd like to probe bulge more later imo
