meh. nook should know better than to say this, considering your fakeclaim in FlippuFlappuMafiu. you say that there is a scumslip but i don’t see it.

(Scumslip)I was just saying shit. Using buzzwords for dramatic effect.

ah ok. well to fully answer your question, i don’t love nanook’s reaction because it seems like a very “on the books” reaction to me. kinda scripted.
it isn’t enough to get me to vote for him, but i’m not townreading him

It seemed to me that he was grasping to a reason to shade me.
(Looking for an EXCUSE to vote me later)

He is also the one who asked for a CC. When I don’t think that situation warranted any of the sort.

He also shaded the Miller claim by saying it’s something scum would do on his homesite.

I always see you and Andre as town.
srceenplay as neutral and nanook as scum.
Knowing that I have to try and see beyond that.

Metal Sonic has been very quite since I voted them.
But their reaction to the vote was towny
_fferyllt has been more involved than the last game I was in with them.
I am slightly leaning town, sure they could have reponded to MS the same as either alignment, but.

I have only ISO’d srceenplay.
I need to do ActionDan and everyone else.

At the moment if I had to vote then it would still be out of Nanook and Sonic.

it’s really cute watching you tryhard

4 posts from Metal.
Probably have to take back my slight scum lean and say very neutral.
Just not enough there to read anything.

@MetalSonic

Hi Metal, can you give us more input please?
Or a reason for your low contribution?
Ta.

I not think I am on Nanook at the moment ffery
I unvoted.

VOTE:UNVOTE

fixt!

This is a vote and a point of view.
Not a question to me.

I don’t tend to respond to this as either alignment, town or scum.

Another one who is saying Srceenplay shoud be lynched but then not voting them.

So basically I am agree with ActionDans posts on srceenplay.
The only thing I disagee with is his point on my Metal Sonic vote.
And he can see it that way if he wants

Why don’t you address votes on you? It’s an opportunity to understand what’s going through people’s minds, and if nothing else, probe further. It might give others the opportunity to spot something that doesn’t make sense. The wall of quotes thing is a criticism of me and I get it - it can make it harder to keep up with the game or want to read. I always tell myself to tone it down but clearly fail every time.

The last flurry of posts is making me reconsider my stance.

@fferyllt you missed my vote but that’s alright I am going to change it I think.

UNVOTE: Catspurr

You do make a good point that it can draw out information Andres.
But it can also draw you into overreacting and that can obscure things.

I probably shouldn’t say I never address the votes, but I try to limit it as much as possible.

And no, it was not your wall of posts. I was thinking of skitter who I guess I will have to try and untangle and decide what side they are really on.

What are your thought on skitter?

I read the wall of posts and I actually liked the content - I found myself agreeing a lot. It’s a bit similar to my style I suppose, but better, less paranoid.

I’ll get to this next.

@Nanook: yeah ok i skimmed through the first couple of pages of that game and i think this is something you do as town so it prob isn’t ai for you to suggest it even though it’s a god-awful idea

yes, that’s why it feels kinda icky i think - like you were undermining/shading his point that you were calling him scummy without voting him

@akfd:

your english is quite good btw :slight_smile:

you come across as kinda inexperienced, or maybe kinda out-of-it is a good way to describe it? like you’re not really sure what’s going on or what you’re supposed to be doing right now. and you kinda misread some people’s posts. i’m trying to determine if that’s an inexperience-in-general thing or a newb-scum thing, which is why i’m asking you about how you approach mafia.

i think at least part of why you’re being percieved that way stems from how you structure your sentences and your posts - you sometimes give off the effect that you’re not entirely sure what’s going on

i kinda feel like if you were scum here and being voted for that be a bit more … self-conscious maybe? or maybe try to play the newbie card? i’m not really getting those vibes tho - you’re not playing up the newb angle or getting defensive or anything, so i’m tending towards thinking it’s actual confusion and clueslessness from you here, and not scum-playing-ditz-to-escape-suspicion

i don’t particularly like the votes on you right now since i don’t think you’ve actually really done much scummy

like mantis’s vote on you is kinda meh - 189-191 kinda seems like he was waiting for someone to give him something to push and when urist named you, he decided to vote there

(aside i’m finding the lack of pagination to be mildly frustrating)

@Andresvmb: this feels kinda defensive tbh

@urist: i remembered at some point today that in the game i played with him like a year ago he was a vt and fake-claimed cop iirc and i’m pretty sure he faked a guilty (or an inno? i don’t remember which) but his result either way was super unbelievable and i mislynched him for it.

so basically i don’t believe this but it’s def soemthing that i think he could/would do as town; i don’t know if it’s in his scumrange to fake guilties like that

i also think that it’s basically a distraction at this point because nobody really thinks it’s real so unless people think it has some bearing on his alignment idk if this is a super useful topic of conversation either way

@Andresvmb: welp, spoke too soon

a) i don’t think the claim is real and i think you’re taking it too seriously

b) wrt cats’ alignment: i don’t think we can conclude that she’s town. if screen’s town he doesn’t know her alignment if the claim is fake, and if he’s scum, i agree that he prob doesn’t tie himself to his partner by inno’ing her; i think the most reasonable conclusion is that they probably aren’t svs

c) where do you get the vibe that he’s not a high-risk-high-reward kind of player? that’s pretty much exactly my vibe of him. (or, more perhaps more accurately, i think he just doesn’t really care about the consequences of what he does or how he’s percieved)

@Nanook: this kinda pings me the wrong way; idk if i can articulate why tho. it feels like you’re like almost overemphasizing your point with the sarcasm and like trying to draw attention back to the excuse thing? like you want to make this into a talking point again? that doesn’t explain it super well i think but i’m not sure how to explain it better

@actiondan: why pl worthy?

lolololol ok

@catspurr: yeah this isn’t a thing

@catspurr: i don’t understand why you’re voting nanook here

@Andresvmb: not entirely following this thought-process - earlier as far as i can tell ur conclusion on all of this is that: a) screen, if town, was telling the truth regarding the claim and that cats was thus town and b) screen, if scum, wouldn’t claim a guilty on his partner and c) town!screen is unlikely to fake this

and that cats was therefore probably town

so i’m not sure why you’re voting for cats here because you’re confused by screen’s claim

huh, this is a good point actually

@Srceenplay: i think that his ‘you were looking for an excuse to move your vote’ is kinda meh and that he’s over-focusing on a word choice and like trying to make it into a thing when i don’t really think it’s ai

i don’t think that pointing out that scum might fake miller is shading tho; i’ve seen scum do that before and it’s a reasonable concern to have imo

(cough boon cough)

eh let’s do this i think

VOTE: catspurr

(also sorry for the walls; that’s kinda my style; i do my best to keep them readable tho)

I was working on a post with my lean on various players, and I realized that it had a lot of holes, so I will share what I think is most relevant. My Town leans are this group: {Skitter, Urist, ActionDan, AKFD, and Parsec}. I would at this stage stay away from voting amongst this group of players. I have explained the reasoning on Skitter (#329), Urist and ActionDan appear to me to be trying to sort out the game and are explaining what they are seeing in a way I can follow, AKFD I am getting newbie Town vibes from (Skitter actually makes a very valid point, and something I used as Scum, which is to defuse pressure by mentioning that I was new to the game), and Parsec (mostly due to the fact that Parsec claimed Miller and has not faced a CC). I think there’s enough content to get some sort of initial read on Mantis and Nanook, I just have not completed the work yet.

Cats I think I am most confused by, so I will do a re-read.

Srceenplay I am leaning negatively on due to the fake-claim. The way he went about it did not strike me as pro-Town. Metal Sonic I have a slight negative lean on, but not much to say since there’s also not much to go by, beyond the unexplained vote on Urist. In a prior game that we played together were Metal Sonic was Town, he seemed to be a little more engaged (and creative). I am seeing none of that here.

I am neutral on _ffery and Josh. _ffery, I am looking at you in particular to help us sort out what is happening and share more of your thoughts, because you have been largely absent.
