(Some like for people to analyze posts without additional explanation so that mafiosos can't tailor their opinion to how good the person looks after the explanation.)

The purpose of the bcb vote was to put pressure on him, make him squirm. That's prime time for mafioso mistakes. He unfortunately did not respond, and his bio comments can explain his behavior (which, though anti-town, doesn't necessarily indicate evilness), so I am returning to Alpha for lack of a better case. I'll try to form an opinion on rascal or junkhead while on the train for the next hour.

i've got to get to sleep now, and i'll be at work first thing in the morning. i have determined that i can access this forum at work, but my presence will still be limited. i don't work at a desk. i'll resume with more active play after work as we wind down towards the deadline.

let's keep this thread moving.

I still hate that Alpha vote. I hate the bcb vote. I hate the revote on Alpha.

When you come back, give me an opinion on MSU and myself as well.

Can I get more Saposhiente votes here?

MSU, what do you make of lilrascal's recent presence?

Anyone, if we get to the end of the day phase with contributors like bcb and Maki's current activity what do you intend to do about the slots?

Someone remind me after 7 hours or so to look at kaboose again. I remember disliking his first post but not having enough to go on.

My name is my name. You may find it in at least two threads on this board, and on any of my posts. You may refer to me as TG if there are too many letters in the full name.

I'm not sidelining, I pointed out specifically what issue I had with junk's posts. As for alpha, I just know we are not meant for each other and day 1 is a luckbox (for now, not so in a day or two) so might as well take out the trash.

OK. Just so you all know, as my bio States. I have limited time in the afternoon to read any post. Thus I generally catch up and post my thoughts

In regards to the bold. Again, on my home site you must use lynch or even #Lynch in order for your vote to count. This is mainly cause our games are more for social fun and the mods can easily search for #Lynch. We commonly bold and change colors of text to draw attention to posts which we feel need answered. I don't know how all your guys' home sites work so I thought I'd point it out after seeing a couple people bold, and then ask a question. When I vote people, it will come with a reason, not a question.

As far as reads, I'm willing to look at msu at this point but it's still early in the game junk from quick read is giving some scummy vibes. I will be eating dinner real quick and give a closer look into him

Ps most of my posts come via my cellphone so there will probably be a couple lol autocorrect moments if I'm in a hurry

Are you suggesting we lynch the lowest activity posters?

FTR, I think this is a good answer to the questions based on bold, vote, etc.

I'd disagree, you merely mentioned my name and quoted some posts you found scummy. You gave no insight whatsoever on why you found those posts to be scummy.

You just sounded like a staples commercial. "That was easy".

I'm usually spammy on D1, and posting Spider-Man meme. As these games are more active than my normal stomping grounds, I'm forgoing that method in favor of reading trying to remember who is who.

As we all are in the same boat with the same disadvantage, I don't know if Sapo wanted to start a train bc Sapo is scum or if Sapo plays his cards close to the vest and didn't want to give a reason.

I honestly detest votes that are just "Vote Player A" because unless there is hard evidence (and in this game, there will only be one way to get hardevidence), it looks lazy and not tactical. It looks very anti-town. I want to know why you are voting for so and so.

So right now, I am leaning to switching to Sapo. But Ill's latest post on Verbal looks awfully tempting too.

Also, I think retaliation votes are desperate. They are the whole "ANyone but me" vibe. If someone votes for me, I am not going to vote for them unless I have a good reason.

I have a few people that I think I trust (LOL)....

I am just ok Sapo's reasoning right now. But Verbal looks better. The short and snappy posts, keeping his post count up? Could be scum behavior. I appreciate that Ill put that string together. Sometimes I have a problem for focusing on the moment and not the "day" and stringing things together.

Yeah, I want more from Verbal right now

That was my brain dump - I have to go AFK for a bit but will be back on in a few hours.

You can absolutely be scum though, you have done nothing to prove your alignment to me.
For someone who assumes everyone is town, why would someone have to prove that. Seems like you would want to hunt scum instead of proving town, seems backwards to me

BUT if he turns out to be mafia, then I would be doing the same to you for calling into question my own suspicions. And of course the people who haven't even contributed.

But you even said it in a previous post about the pace of the game - no one is saying anything so I might as well start to get dialogue.

Just to note - this day 1 is COMPLETELY different for me. My boards usually go no lynch on day 1 (I would say 90% of the time) where it's just banter and funny back and forths. I like this method - it's all based on instinct.
This really makes zero sense. In your example, Why would you call him into suspicion as he was the person who pushed me in the first place?

I will answer this but seriously, real life calls and I will be back just letting you know that i will get to this to explain.

That I'm second guessing myself a lot. A lot of the conversation (e.g., cop directing) could be said as either alignment, so I'm focusing on whether people appear to be trying too hard to be townie. But without meta, like I said, I'm second guessing myself. I've almost moved my vote a few times, but I'm going to stick with what I have thus far (which isn't much).

Playing dumb after a screwup, as mafia. Perhaps different from the way it's used on mafiascum, I just looked it up. More like this
