I suppose you don't have to be a "good player" to push easy wagons as mafia, but consciously keeping your same town playstyle when you're mafia is one of the biggest challenges of the game, and being able to do it is part of what makes someone a "good player" in my opinion.
I did say that I see the tactic as coming from mafia a lot. But how often do you have to see someone use the same tactic as town before you stop seeing it as scummy when it comes from them? I know a sample size of one game is pretty pathetic, but I'm new here and it's all I have to work with.
I ignored the rest of the post because I felt like rehashing the nitty-gritty of how I read another game would be a pretty serious de-rail of the thread. Suffice it to say that I would have been horribly wrong as town. We can discuss the details if you want, but in the end I think we'll still disagree, and that's ok.

They are. Like, I've been conditioned to think that all the stuff people getting reads off of this early in a game are all complete WIFOM and BS, and until actual stuff happens, mafia can and will say/do anything. I'm trying to adapt. When I posted the slight read on slendy, I don't believe he had much suspicion, at least in my mind. I mean, some people disagreed with his decision to withhold the reason, but did anyone actually think he was suspicious for it?
