Bleh. I'm no closer to having a good read. I need to go do a re-read but I've basically followed along all night and nothing has jumped.

That's because we aren't doing anything.  Mafia games are hard to start cause none of us have enough reason to take an early risk.  Wolves have 0 reason and townies need to have some sense of self preservation.  

 

Makes for a lot of safing from the try hards and for the rest this is comfortable still, communal even.  It's just nice to be back and chatting I think.

[Cory Caboose]

i dont tryhard intentionally

 

i cant help myself ldo. i enjoy the game :P

 

what does "safing" mean?

[Darthe]

It means I mix terminologies.

 

But for real, I was referring to people acting in a way that prioritizes their individual safety in the game.

[Cory Caboose]

what do you think of me so far? (besides that im a spaz ofc)

[Darthe]

Man thats question that wouldn't get you paid much in high school.

[Darthe]

Prob town I suppose.  I don't trust you by any means but the stats + your effort are enough to give a slight positive skew

^ what I actually tried to say

[Cory Caboose]

I've been kicked out of high school twice.

 

Once because I got into a fight, when I was 19.

 

The other time because I was sneaking through the girls' locker room, last week.

[Cory Caboose]

I swore I typed 17.

Can't even plagiarize correctly

Fine. I'll count it, but please unvote as per instructed. Look at the rules if you wish. I updated there as well. 

 

Making a name blue here just means it's a town read, it doesn't mean unvote.

Old habits die hard. I'll correctly use the bolded unvote. Sorry for that.

ok I exist now

This feels very towny. Goes against the grain

How so?  I'm fine with Arie over all, but it's not like [person has never played with any of us before] gets balls cred for pushing Cory out the gate.

I laughed at this post at the time, but when I read it again it seemed off. This is the same feeling I get from Amega, of sowing dissension

Expand  

 

It doesn't really sow dissent and it's not wrong, either.  Seeing his post in isolation there definitely made me scratch my head like... "why is he even bothering to type this".    There was some broader context to his original read drop though so /shrug

 

Basically he's reached for some reads I wouldn't normally expect him to while not stoking fired as I am used to, but this game was also on what, page four 24 hours in?  I'm hesitant to read too much into atypical behavior in an atypical thread state.

[Andrej]

What reads do you think I’ve reached on?

FWIW id agree with that. I thought the vote for when it came and reason given was fine though. But yeah, no cookies for pushing Cory with no meta beforehand.

[Andrej]

I’m mostly caught up. I’m at the gym and on the elliptical atm so lolme if I fall off trying to type on my phone. Lemme go back and answer stuff I want to but currently I am most bothered by BG/Lenlo/Marsh. I sort of feel like after the two more vocal thread leaders have been bringing me up that I’m getting a little flanked by some others.

 

I want to see specifics about what BG’s sees me as linking, which is what I assume he means. I don’t know if there’s more to dig into regarding Marsh’s dissention comment beyond what’s already been said but I think that’s a pretty bad way to shade that interaction when I essentially repeated him without the flowery language. I’d like Lenlo to expound more on his read of me since apparently it doesn’t have to do with my vote.

God I don't want to dig back to find things without search in this game.

 

You dropped some single post reads, Darthe was one of them

 

it was kind of in response to me encouraging that sort of thing so I dunno

 

I think you're generally more inclined to just roll your eyes at the suggestion?

[amegakure]

Hmm. I kinda feel like either shad or Corey is gonna flip scum. They play off each other well. Im totally ignoring everyones metas on each other. I think it felt like aerie corey could be doing some slight distancing in the beginning. Then come together.

 

Not sure why people are on iron eyes. I get my votes people always think I'm scummy. 

 

Kinda feel better about Kaylee but Idk. 

 

I like aj and nin. Lenlo is Lenlo.

 

Bg is null. 

 

Not sure on darthe. I can usually read him pretty well and i am leaning town but it's still to early.

 

Did i miss anyone?

 

The only things I've seen are the things I'm being voted for so there's that.

Darthe was my attempt to add something beyond the circle of Kaylee/Shad/Cory town reads. It was off the cuff but semi-serious. After his latest postings I still feel pretty good about that. In BFG’s game he was super hyperactive almost to an exaggerated point which made me think he was scum. I don’t get that vibe at all this game.

Did you comment about me in the pages I haven't read yet?

 

Because I don't understand this at all.  What about two people "playing off each other well" is likely to yield a wolf, in your view?

Their sole PR

[Shad_]

58 posts, lynched D1

 

shad gotta stats

[Shad_]

In general so far (haven't read everything) I think amegakure is just the kind of guy who gets lynched D1 a lot and will be scum about rand % of that time.

 

Would really really like to cross reference this with his last village game since it was recentish but rip
