Do you think people routinely point out a post that bugged them and need an answer supplied to them?
I mean posts do bug me sometimes and I don’t know why, but still this reaction feels weird.- Lady 7

I guess? I just think more often than not, people have an answer, and the jump in at that stage felt a little like a way to sound pro-town than actually being concerned at that point.In post 61, Gentleman 3 wrote:
Eh, I think it was reasonable. It's best practice to not suggest a possible answer when you ask for an explanation of something, because you could be signaling to scum exactly how to tell you what you want to hear.In post 59, Lady 7 wrote:I mean posts do bug me sometimes and I don’t know why, but still this reaction feels weird.
I was aware of this, but I figured the risk was minimal because it's only page 3 anyway, and trying to jump-start discussion was more important.- Lady 7

So by your tonal slip, I wanna say you understand what we were saying and that it has nothing to do with the use of smilies. Which makes the sugary ignorance here irritating.In post 133, Lady 5 wrote:
Because maybe people want a reason to look down on me because They are jealous of my beauty. :3In post 120, Lady 8 wrote:Why are we arguing whether smiley faces are AI?
They should just tell me not to make faces if it bothers them that much.
It’s obvious faces are confusing them and making them read it as not Null.
Maybe I should stop! ^_^- Lady 7

Was kinda keeping up while working.
I like g6 wasn’t there a song about g6 like a g6 or something like that?
What I like about l4 is the off the cuff way she pops in to comment on things. It has a kind of free flowing feeling to it.
L5 is gonna be hard, I don’t agree with l4 in that she feels like she doesn’t care how she’s perceived due to the tonal slip. I’m of the opposite mind in that when people take on a character in an alt game, breaking character is sometimes reflective of caring. I don’t know. The fun part and hard part about alt games is you get to play a character but the character tone isn’t yours and you sound off sometimes, which makes it harder to read.
L8 and g7 felt a bit wooden
I want to like l9, nothings holding me back there I just feel cautious for some reason.
thought I had more random thoughts
Oh well- Lady 7

I have not thought about the setup and optimal things about it. The farthest Ive thought about the setup is that I hope I get asked to the dance and that he’s someone fun that I can read and work with in the qt. It’d be nice if he’s town but I’m cool suiciding if I think he’s not. I’ll probably have better things thoughts about strategy once I see how things are playing out, hopefully!In post 318, Lady 1 wrote:

Many many moons ago in a galaxy far far away, scum outed themselves in the first few pages of the game by discussing the avatar of someone who hadn't posted yet in thread.In post 347, Lady 9 wrote:

While anyone can make a mistake like that, there's something about Lady 1's measured tone that feels too systematic to make that mistake. Though the response to the question feels a bit eh.- Lady 7

Did you mean someone else there?In post 397, Lady 2 wrote:Okay thanks L4, your thinking is starting to fit and make sense as a cohesive thing.
L7, you want a pseudo-vote, make one yourself. At the very least, if you think that type of vote is a good strategy, tell us which of the ladies you would like to see left out. Otherwise all I'm seeing is setup stuff from you, and it's like busy work. Talking about voting a lady to ditch but not doing it. Talking about basically the same IC-pairing approach that's been most favored. Talking about a pairing strategy L1 has focused most of her energy on. It's not getting much done.
And like hell should G4 retract his invite to L3 (not that I think he can legally?). Talk about muddying waters. L3 is being quite sensible about the invitation, too.- Lady 7

I like lady 3 for the g6/l8 reads. I don’t really understand what she’s going for there, but it felt good.
I meant that to g1 not g4.- Lady 7

So I had a little time to actually read instead of the speed skimming I was doing last night to keep afloat except it’s taking so freaking long to load a page, I’m still sitting on page 10. Don’t know if I’ll have the time to finish at the rate this is going.
Though lady 8 has more game related posts and are not as wooden as I thought yesterday, with the exception of a post or two. I still would like gent 6 and lady 9 to weigh in on that confident read, but it’s not as unbelievable to me that someone had a positive view of her as it was before.
Is it weird that I took the deep wolf comment as a compliment? Her posts in general still rub me the wrong way and the 69 joke does too. Mostly because it’s overdone and not likely AND it’s the worst, most uncomfortable awkward waste of a position anyway.
Don’t worry lady 4, I don’t want to be paired with the IC anyway. Nice in theory to have someone you know is town to bounce thoughts off of, and while I think one of my strengths in mafia is my ability to listen to my townreads to balance out my own reads, one of my weaknesses is to doubt myself too much to sometimes prioritize my thoughts and I think with him being an IC it would exacerbate how I’m feeling about mafia right now. I know my tight is moot because he doesn’t want to pair with me anyway, but it was something I was thinking about.
As of page 10, I still like a g6, cautious about liking l9 (I realized where the caution comes from. It just takes me longer to read calm analytic types, but I like the thread presence overall), and I like l4’s interaction with g6 to make that a potential burgeoning townread.- Lady 7

OMG that was so annoying. I got caught up but it took an hour longer than it should and I didn't have, so I'm just gonna jot down some quick thoughts. I don't really have great analysis anyway; there wasn't a whole lot that actually stood out to me. And this feels like one of those games that's gonna take me longer to get reads I feel comfortable with, which sucks but bleh.
For the ladies:
I think I'm coming around to actually feeling quite good about L4. This is mostly a thread presence read as she's here quite often with a lot of pop ins and poking/commenting on a lot. It's just a kind of thread presence that feels more townie than scummy and I've liked some of the little emotional flourishes in some of her posts. This is probably the closest to an actual town read among the ladies.
I do like things from L3 (the pop in asking L6 about his L8 read was something that felt good), L2 (The kind of wistful/regretful posts feel nonmanipulative), L9 (good thread presence but analytical types take me longer to read.
For the men:
G2 - Duh. I do like the approach he's taking as IC right now actually.
G6 - My towniest read among the men, and this is approaching actual town read status too. I like his thread presence and most of his interactions. His read/pushing then backing off and being torn on L4 feel real enough.
And then I'm in a wasteland. Tonally G3 feels fine most of the time, but his discussion with G6 felt a bit too much based on semantics. I'm not sure what to make of it with G3 town reading G6. Communication clash maybe? Anyway I want to like him just because he feels good tonally but. Some of G1's posts I like, some of them feel like posting to post. I think most of his quotestripe posts feel posting to post with really nothing there. G7 is way wooden and too focused on mechanics. G4 plays around a lot and that gives me nothing. I liked G5's flurry but it was short-lived so we'll have to see what g5 brings when he shows up. I like G8's Michael role-play.
Oh I liked G4's town it up people post.
So, yep, there's where I'm at. Don't you wanna dance with me *kisses* :p- Lady 7

Not necessarily. Could just be a personality quirk, but the discussion over "sure" felt a bit pedantic, and I really don't want to get that discussion started again at all. If you had scum read him while having that discussion I'd be looking at you with a lot more squinty faces because that could be scum indicative. The fact that you town read him and said it was for clarification means that it could just be communication/personality clash. It stood out to me as a "not quite sure what to do with this" though.In post 564, Gentleman 3 wrote:

I'm a great hydra partner! I think what I've seen of our approaches would mesh well. But I don't really want to pair with the IC because I'm afraid me knowing that you're town will make me listen to your reads/prioritize your reads more than I should which would probably be counterintuitive to actually solving the game.
I realize this sounds crazy but.- Lady 7

Interesting take on G5's small body of work.In post 581, Lady 5 wrote:If both Gent 1 and Lady 8 are town.
They will by far be the power house town needs to win.
The reason Gent 2 should go with Lady 7 is because Lady 7 is feel could be the most possible Deep Wolf so making the confirmed Town partners with them could help in the long run.
As for Gent 5 with Gent 2 I also feel another power house town can be made.
With both their play style’s together it can make with some good late game solving
I’ll now be gone for the day.

I think this will really only be a today problem, and the last two were identifiable.In post 604, Gentleman 3 wrote:Understandable, but a possible problem with that is that then they might get asked to explain something their predecessor did, and they won't be able to but they also won't be able to say why...
Also, in some cases (like this one), it will be obvious what slot was trying to make the slip post.
But moving forward it will be unavoidable to tell the difference in posting style.- Lady 7

In post 631, Gentleman 6 wrote:Eh if I'm outing that I might as well out both of my reads.
I think that L7-L9 associatives look extremely likely to be SvS.
I think that L7 independently is the scummiest slot in the game right now.
Given that these are very unpopular reads my goal was to simply let town do what they want for a while and if we don't end up flipping scum to leave the dance with 9 and an explanation why later.
You’d be losing your earlier bet if that’s where you were going.
I don’t think I’ve ever been considered the scummiest slot in a game before. Maybe I lost my town mojo- Lady 7

G5 mainslipped and is getting replaced. I think L5 would be aware of that if she shared a scum at with him.In post 639, Lady 2 wrote:

Truth is I'm not entirely sure that she's town and I think that if she is I'll be 100% sure to see it In a hood and if she's not I think I'll see it as well.
Still not following I guess? Yeah G5 hasn't done so much that I would confidently predict him as a likely component of a strong powerful T/T pair late game, it's weird that L5 said basically that ... but I wouldn't go from there to a strong feeling that L5 and G5 cannot have the same alignment?In post 626, Lady 7 wrote:L2:
L5 is talking about G5 pairing with L2 as a town powerhouse, which is from my understanding based off her view of the G5 that was seemingly without realizing what may be of the G5 to come.
