So, what is this in response to, and what does the p7 mean?

It looks like you're at post 7, but then your post doesn't make any sense.

This feels like a long worded fence post and not in a good way. I doubt Ceph will be exe'd due to their current posting and the wagon is only three votes. But, maybe I'm being a little harsh given how slow the game is.

Did you just call someone out for fence sitting and fence sit in the same post?

It's not.

Clarify your thoughts on LLD please.
This is not a matter of fact, it is an opinion. You are allowed to have games you consider slow as am I. So to me, this game feels slow. Now, if you think what I said is something to discuss with alignment then I suggest you move onto that because it is a waste of time to fight over this otherwise.

The head that made a comment about LLD is different to the one you are speaking with. If you want this ones thoughts on LLD I believe they're observaing and gathering their footing. a NAI tell at the moment.

It's a post I doubt a wolf makes in the current conversation given it's a rather "bad" post on paper. It seems more likely something a villager said in the spur of the moment. Do you disagree?

I think that their reaction on page 13 to the fake day vig is fake but trying to look genuine. By that I mean, I don't believe that they believed that they were dead, and I don't think it was a townie reaction.

Look if you didn't want to get burned down early then you should've used your noggin before you fluffposted, now its too late and that's your problem not mine
how dare i attempt to have fun. i should be burned at the stake for this heinous crime
Fluff isn't a crime

It's the scum poking out of it
i'd be interested in seeing you try to explain this without copying LLD's homework
Sure but only because it turns out she wasn't seeing what I saw, whoops

The content of your post reads EXACTLY in theme with a specific part of Control, but its a part that wouldn't be very likely to come up in a green role PM. If you hadn't fluffposted without thinking through the consequences of your actions you might have been fine, but instead you fluffposted in a way that gave the game away, precisely because you didn't know what you were talking about. Sorry bud
This is kind of my main issue with mush's push on Ceph with the caveat being I have no idea about anything related to this game beyond the quick wiki scrub I did. So unless the founder guy kept some kind of diary and it is a CORE part of the game then this blatant flavor outing of cephrirs is just BS.

Compound that with Mush's trajectory on Ceph (which is good admittedly) and it doesn't seem believable. If Ceph's flavor was blatantly found in one of the two antagonists that were named then Ceph's rebuttals wouldn't matter. Because they slipped as scum.
Hold on, do we know that scum has flavor that matches the antagonists?

Isn't that what meta is, though? Judgement of someone's play by how they played in other games, regardless of whether you've been in that game or not?
In post 290, Lady Lambdadelta wrote:Oh, and also also, nothing of your posts has really kind of said anything which is the irony part. You're saying a lot of words and accomplishing... not much. I'd probably swallow the ego a little and dig in a little more.
I quite disagree and my ego has very little to do with anything I do in mafia games.
Not really? like Meta is literally taking tendancies from one game and kind of trust telling them into another. See: Mastina always claims Mason as a meme

That's meta.

As for your posts... like there's a lot of words and not a lot said. Like you wrote a lot about Ceph but missed Mush's point and completely misunderstood mine.

The Ego part of this is that you could have dug into either of our arguments with lines of questioning that might have informed you about our alignments but you thought you understood our arguments and now I'm here telling you that you've gone 0/2 on that regard.

Hence... Ego.

Over all participation has been nothing like what i expected (at least one half) of this hydra to contribute lol
I don't like to post solo when part of a hydra, and my partner hasn't read over the game. They've asked to replace out which leaves me on my own, and I will play as if on my own shortly.

Side note... if you've ever played with me you'd know that low posting on day 1 from me is something I do often as town for other reasons, so I'm not sure where that meta is coming from?
