Ugh distractions.

FoU has been promoted by me a handful of times to elaborate on his read of me and has prevaricated each time with talk of Sharpness and soliloquies and fingertips. It doesn’t mean anything.

You also said there are investigators that are possibly looking at NQT too, so his slot being solved that way means I’d prefer to look elsewhere for a D1 vote.

Eurgh people backing up web in PMs.

Fine, benefit of the doubt for the time being; my scumread in him is based on speculation and unmet expectation.

*sigh*

Still happy with my scumread on FoU, probably cool with KW as scum also. I’ll figure out the third one at some point.

I would be flabbergasted if we didn’t considering how much love the Souls games get.

I mean… I’m trying to show that FoU says a lot without saying anything at all. He’s suspicious of me to the point I must be scum but ca’ln’t figure out why, but is not making any effort to figure out why.

He also has no read on 5 other playsers, and is not doing anything about that either, which means he’s making no effort figuring out half the town, while knowing there are (at least) three scum out there.

One thing I will say is FoU has been rolefishing KW a couple of times (his first post and the reads list I quoted a few posts back) so maybe they’re not on a team together, but KW needs to post more anyway.

Okay, back from work.

I think I don't like webadict's playstyle necessarily, but this does feel like the town version of him. The casual assertions of unfathomable knowledge, a good helping of meta reads, and sharp, mean humor.

Knightwing64 looks too confused to be scum. Though he does need to engage with the game more. I bet he has a really cool role.

Tric honestly feels a little off? Or maybe he's just engaging more with the game as he grows into a better player.

Vector hasn't been doing anything, Toonyman feels like he's doing nothing. Toonyman did argue against claims, and I don't necessarily agree with that - though the massclaim meta is a little painful at times. I think we should claim information and roles if it's useful to do so, but not for no reason. Maximum Spin is somewhere in between these two peeps.

EuchreJack... town? It's the way he's acting, and I get that that's vague as all fuck, but there's no shiftiness. I think it's in character for him to immediately claim a voting role, even if it is a LYLO breaker.

I think Jim Groovester is rolling like a rolling stone. Slow at first, but building up momentum.

That leaves not quite there, who I'm going to fold into the same category as vector and Toony and Spin.

hector is terrifying me for some reason. I don't know why. Vibe check says 'RUNNNNNN' even if he's smiling and being his usual towny self. That's a serial killer right there, I'm telling you.

I don't think I'm honestly okay with a Tric execution Day 1, even if there is something off. Executing Tric is the easy way out, a free execution for any scum that can use his 'weirdness' as an excuse to push him.

I'm scared enough of hector13. Maybe I'll reread and see if I can back up my gut.

As far as I’m aware, this is your most recent reads list, which has, what, 4 players as null? Vector, Toony, Max, NQT. You don’t say anything about Jim’s alignment either, so I’m going to say that’s a harsh read from me, and say 5, but whatevs the point is they’re there.

You’ve done exactly zero to clear up those spots, instead voting me based on a gut read which makes sense to me, you seem to have placed me in a pedestal over the years we’ve played, fine, I get it, but you also have done zero about that, too. I’ve had to prompt you to clear it’ll up what you mean and you respond with nonsense about fingertips and soliloquies, which kinda ended me giving you the benefit of the doubt ‘cause I asked for something easy to understand, and you’ve provided zero evidence for a read that could be cleared up with Pepto Bismol.

You are correct in your assertion that I have done little in the game. I don’t want to bring it up, but my excuse is I am responsible for a 9 month old child. What’s your’s?

I can post early in my morning when I am a grumpy so-and-so like in this post. I can post little and maybe often during the day when baby is awake. I can post late at night when I’m more prone to whimsy ‘cause I’m exhausted, and disinclined to do huge analysis. I missed making a funny early in the game that I noticed last night related to you and Jim, but neglected to post it because it would require trimming posts which is difficult to do when I exclusively PFP.

You seem to expect us to believe that you don’t know how to play mafia anymore, but you run games FFS and you discuss them in deadchat with the players. I like how you’ve said that confused play from KW makes him town though, implying the same from you must mean the same thing.

You want opinions? You, webadict, KW, with the proviso we’re like 36 hours into D1. I’d be happy with you or KW, because webadict is not going to get voted out on D1, probably ever.

Possibly Jim instead of webadict, but Jim PM’d me just to spite me and they was funny, I don’t think scum!Jim does that.

Webadict has said he’s coordinated investigative roles to look into me in the night. If I get cleared and can coast the rest of the game without having to prove I’m town, that suits me right down, down to Funkytown.

Tric, Toony, EJ are my top town picks, and I don’t really care about the rest other than Vector could post more, hopefully it’s nothing serious from storms or whatever.

PPE: I hope Max is going to claim kook.
