ok, but wouldn't it make more sense to just say that this player (soah) is trying to lynch you because he's mafia trying to achieve his wincon and not because he's on an ego trip or something

Oh, wow, he hasn't. whoops.

I can get on board a Gnawazan. There was one post that I kinda liked where he shut down some of the mechanics talk early. But the push on Phoenicks was a little much.

No I mean asher was saying spruce was buddying Lissa. But eh, you're probably right, it's too early to look too hard at associatives. But if "Don't look at associatives Day 1" was a rule then asher/spruce would be the exception I'd make. I don't think they're both scum, and I suspect one is.

You've been changing your votes a lot lately. Any reason why?

i was more looking for reasons or comparisons than what your actual read was

what makes you an easy read iyo?

nolemonplease

um, because "Along Comes Mary", and I "Cherish" that "The Time It Is Today", a "Windy" day?

idk, like yea it can be helpful but i don't think not having them should be used as an excuse

i would probably never be confident enough with a d1 suspect pool for the second point to ever matter

bumping this post now that there are more people around who might want to respond to it:

(I'll concede that I may have misunderstood the post which I originally questioned him on.)

You're thinking of ashersky, I think. I actually defended soah's 'logic' style, which is NOT my style.

@Soah, I'm not sure I understand your second point -- Can you rephrase it? I honestly can't tell what it means.

I think you are talking about me.

The second post that I quoted? It was part of my response to this:

"I disagree with you that tunneling Humans necessarily still focus on the remainder of the game; I think it's more potential that a tunneling Human ignores miscellaneous information in order to zone in on the Player, but perhaps we've just had different experiences."

There's reasons behind my votes. I'm not changing my votes on purpose for any reason.

I tend to vote around a lot. Especially as EOD approaches. It helps me evaluate my reads and I can find information in reactions sometimes.

I decided to step back from ash, so I voted someone else that I suspected. I remember holding back voting him earlier because he already had plenty of votes. Voting Gnaw at the moment because he's been a conflicted read, and I've been hearing soah's thoughts. I'm interested in seeing what happens, especially with a lynch leader after the tally has been 2-2-2-2-2-1-1-1 for a while.

Just a couple of things

Soah and whomever else asked this
It's not like I find him less suspicious. It's just that on rereading the thread I've come to see other people as suspicious for different reasons. I don't think I reached a satisfactory ordering, but at this stage my suspicions of a lot players are very close together.

I'm disappointed you never gave me answers. If we're both alive tomorrow I'm following this up.

Spruce
Playing mafia shouldn't preclude having fun, I'm not completely humourless myself, but it doesn't obviate the town from having reasons for their votes.

As to the impending lynch:

Of the people currently being voted, I don't want Mashiii, Lissa, or Soah lynched.

Mashiii by far isn't the scummiest player so my vote goes to Spruce for his terrible D1 case (No Lynches' is thus also terrible, but I dislike his play marginally less).

This is actually a better answer than I was suspecting. I was going through your past posts and your recent vote spray seemed different -- but this makes more sense.

If Gnaw didn't show up before end of day, what would you do?

I decided to look into spruce a bit and looked through his forum's nomination thread. My general impression is that spruce wasn't an entry meant as the best Player; in post 523, he states "Dudes, my aim is to flavour the thing up and likely get lynched Day 1, just like the baldur game. There's no way I'll advance with 2 regular 2+ Poggers in the game, even were I to correctly name all the wolves Day 1. And the official guide is even "best player", not "MVP". My play-style doesn't wash anywhere I've been yet, even if wins inch out losses. My aim is for the most players (and spectators) to have the most fun with it, and that usually means an early lynch lead." which leaves me uneasy regarding how he's been playing.

Kawamii, you could at least make an effort to contribute your opinion to the thread. Why did you vote nolemonplease?

I'm used to games with fixed day lengths still having a lynch once majority is reached. I think I've only played one game I think where the tally at end of day (EoD) was the only one that counted.

So I pissed away a lot of time and effort on a misread of the rules.


Unfortunately I've been in bed all day except on the three occasions I spent attempting to throw up my stomach and other bodily organs. The only thing I've read up on is to find this mod post.

I'm going back to bed now.

Okay Mash, that's an okay reason to hold off on Spruce for now as this is expected play and not necessarily alignment indicative.

Ashersky is still my preference.

Ashersky

I don't really know at the moment. It's pretty dependent on stuff happening within the next hour or so.

What does "untimed" or "timed" imply here?

Sorry to hear that you don't feel well, but if you can muster up some posts right now it would be quite helpful, because as is I am going to try to make you dead.

i don't follow
