Spartan vs EZ is now the most interesting thing in this thread for me. Reading further, my first impression is town v town, but I want to revisit this and see if there’s anything to pick up. I’m walking back my immediate suspicion of Spartan a bit, but there’s something there. Also:

Huh. I’m breaking my word. This is an open question for anyone:
Do you think that flow trap’s play is anti-town? I’m curious where people stand. I don’t think it qualifies/am not convinced that it is, but I think hearing people’s current takes on this would be useful.

Just finished work, going to have dinner then do a proper read through with a clean head of the last 6 pages as I wasn't able to do it all properly last night.
To expand on my mindset here Quiet, it was a bit of an emotional reaction of my frustration to asking them question after question and having it dismissed with fog. I can fully understand why someone would want to not give everything away and keep some of their thoughts to themselves. It just got to me that after trying to understand something and put the pieces together it was shut down on more than one occasion, and if I'm not mistaken I think the same happened to others too, and I can see both town and scum doing this for different reasons so I see it as NAI overall but it still stagnates potential discussion that could have been had, shuts off avenues of conversation and makes me at the very least feel less desiring to try and converse with them from fear of getting shot down again and it being a pointless effort to try and go down that avenue although I did try.
I think this is a very bizarre interaction between fred and enchant here.
I also don't like how he tried to redirect my attention back on to him when I voted fred, he was almost desperate
Hey, i won mafiatest, and got -11, while he got -5.
Why you not pushing me, but instead change mind soo easy.
by defending/trying to bring my attention back to him i mean this
came off really desperate and i think can absolutely point towards a fredrick/enchant scumteam
Low bar you are setting for yourself here. How would you recommend I sort you?

Pedit; I recognize that it was a response to Spartian saying you weren’t ever helpful and that it’s unfair of me to snipe it out like that.
More interested in how you play. If this is townYou, it almost seems like you’re playing town in a way that balances your scum range. If that makes sense. Thus the question of how you recommend sorting you; the “am I having fun” thing is a tough read for me

I want Fredrick to come back and weigh in on the Enchant wagon + EZs statements (which they sort of did before).
I also would think those on the Fredrick wagon would be happy to move over to the Enchant wagon; not sure why they havnt.

i noticed i supplied zero context so this probably makes little sense
a while ago i said fredrick really didnt have that much of a presence in the game and i didn't like that, he says 'he exists,' then enchant comes out of nowhere and starts trolling him
while i wouldnt put it past enchant to mess around a lot, this was a very different character than he was usually

About to go through them pages now, Just wanted to say I didn't say he wasn't ever helpful, I was referring to when I had asked him questions and he was dismissive/illusive. My frustration also stems from not being able to get a strong read on the slot, overall I have a pretty Null real, I can see townie and scummy reasons for the things they have done.
In post 350, Spartan117 wrote:@safe @EZ since you guys are about what do you think of Fredrick so far?
He’s not exactly the most committed player to making reads or just talking in general.
While that’s not AI it makes me forget he’s even there at times which I don’t like.

How to play as Mafia Goon? What it do?
Enchant has played Newbie 2046 before according to Sal (44); it's a pure joke. But Enchant has not posted anything else that relates to this or is a pure joke. It looks unnatural/forced.
Also, you still haven't made any productive comments about your flow trap vote. What did you learn from the pressure you put on flow trap, and in retrospect was it a good idea?
If it ends up not being Enchant, where do we go from there?

This is fair, didn't mean to misrep. your point, Spartan. I share your read on flow as null.
Very interested in your take on Enchant's 691-693. Frankly, you could read from 678 on and get the critical stuff.

The only real issue from my perspective with the enchant elim is that if they flip town, we have basically no real info.
They did enough suspicious things that pushing on them early doesn't look terribly bad.
Their self-vote openclaim Mafia Goon makes them so suspicious that literally anyone can vote them without looking bad.
There might be some info to find somewhere on a push on them, but frankly, it feels like Day1 part2 if they flip town, and it feels like who gets killed at night or bad solving or something would provide more info that anyone pushing the Enchant slot.
