And I'm back. Took a little longer than expected due to my needy pup.we had to go out for playing twice because it's not raining. Nevermind it is still cold as, well cold. Finally got to come back in because it started to winter mix. Anyway, he's back in my face so I'll try to be quick. Early thoughts on people. It's kinda all over the place, so take it for what it is. Shad is feeling town. He's been clear in what he is saying, and I think I agree with most of his takes. Gudrean has been consistent in her tone and most of her takes. I disagree about her defense of Z irt the Dice lynch thing. More about that later. Dice has been fairly quiet. I am attributing it to early happy play with Cass. I hope to see a more involved Dice going forward. Lenlo had that weird T/T take on me and Z early. I'm always suspicious of people reading me town or defending early. I think the thing about Z and Dice rang true with how I remember his vie on the game. Verb has stuck his nose in right away. I think his vote at Len was indicative of town mindset. See thing, poke at thing. See what happens. Cass hasn't really stood out.to.me at all. The only thing I recall is a slight defense of Zander over the TOWN LEADER situation. It could be something, it could just be game philosophy. Cairos has bugged me with the recurring LOCK CLEAR references. I need more from him. RTE has been mostly reasonable. There was something that I thought weird but I can't recall and will have to look for it. I did find his catching the no hammer aspect. I kinda wish he hadn't posted it though as that.might have given more info as to Zander's intent. Heavy is confounding me. Some posts I am totally nodding.my head. Then other posts I just don't understand. I'm wondering if he is trying to create a mafia personality to compartmentalise the game from his regular DM life. I think I'm gonna back burner him for now. Zander I'm having some trouble with. Some of it may be carryover from last game. This game it seems like he's just trolling me, but why I'm not sure. I obviously disagree with his TOWN LEADER ideas because too often it gets used to "bully" (in game only) players into leaving them alone when they do something sketchy. The whole line about bad villaging because someone suspects him is troubling. It just feels wrong. I'm not sure how else to express this. I don't want this to get too long so that's it for now. Oh, my town to mafia list. These are mostly minor leans at present Shad Heavy Verb Len Gudrean RTE Dice Cass Cairos Zander

Hey everyone. I'm a bit.out of it.in general ATM. Been sorta following but not really. I'm gonna try to read through and see what I see. Z, from what I'm reading here on last page or two, what people are saying is the mania (might not be the right word) of your posts are coming off as reactionary, and they are reading that as suspicious. This bit of posting by you is coming across as frantic. I know it is hard for.you but if you are town, just slow down a little bit, compose your thoughts a little and type slower. If you can. /Zanderwhispering Okay, let me go see what you all have been up to.

Z, I think I said this last game and I'll say it again. The entire VILLAGER LEADER shtick is at its heart a mechanism to allow the more vocal, more well known mafia players to distract, diffuse and control the game protecting their teammates. That the people that use it also do it as town is simply cover for when they aren't. I'm always gonna look at least slightly askance at people that use that technique. Trying to hold back. So far willing to wait and see.

To make it worse a mafia tactic is to accuse in order to get you defensive to keep you from having time and energy to case them. Then if you do, they dismiss it as just being retaliation. This game, and autocorrect, can be truly devilish.

We need to get the ENTIRE BAND back together to make those huge-ish games work. With about 5 backups.

Yes, it is hard to not take personal other people saying you are a "villain" in the game. Especially if you know your not. I just try to shake it off because at the end of the day it's all people playing a game. /attempting.emotional.support

Ftfy

The Wheel of Time turns, and MAFIA GAMES come and pass, leaving memories that become legend. Legend fades to myth, and even myth is long forgotten when the GAME that gave it birth comes again. but Zander spam is eternal, lolololol

Calling little now. Gonna be an epic Shad_, Zander battle to bee pocketed by Gudrean. Lololololololololololol

Len, I don't think my interactions with Z were particularly violent. Not sure what that's about. He is right that you got it at least half right though. I'm gonna let Z be Z for now. He seems more subdued (probably not the right word for him), so it doesn't feel like he's trying to drown out everyone else.

Sees. RTE *BALEF.....* no I'm being nice. Heya RTE I think Gudrean is gonna need more pockets. Everyone trying to jump in.

I have to get up early so it's time for me to go to sleep. Peace. I wonder what @peacesells is up to?

I kinda figured that would be the case. LOLOLOLOL

You still know nothing. Cool. I was on Ike from 87 to 91. I was an MM. Well actually a subset referred to as ELTs. We did the water chemistry and supervised radiological controls in the plants. And Wow, I feel real dumb if that's all you have to do to multi quote.

To the second. No. I'm a trying to be nicer cause I was told I was mean at least twice. So gonna be a bit more chill. To the top. The top voted don't get lynched, they get ejected out the airlock.

No. Just that it is shady to.post things that can't be substantiated that could later be used as a fake way to claim a "gut tone" read later on.

You know nothing.

Here we go again. LOLOLOLOLOL

Smallish world. What did he do? When did he serve?

Ha!!! I can't wait for LOLOLOLOLOL Hang on a tic, does that make Heavy mafia? That's thin, but it would be funny. Then we would be back to

No you, you Minority Villager you.

What can I say, except...

Dwight D. Eisenhower. Enterprise was an older style. Wow, either he had to deal with a lot of hot spots or he's older than me.

Cool. Me neither. Is Murphy's a brand of drink? I don't really drink anymore.

Asteroids was awesome, and defender, and tempest, and so many more.
