I once played a 120:48 day/night cycle game.

Actually, I've played a lot of games like that. The community I came from did all of their games in that fashion.
Gee, wonder why it ded?

I suspect dunya too, you fart. Colin's vote is independently poop.
Why? Looked fine to me.
It was placed with no relevance to the content of this game and instead served to play to a semi-inside joke. It bores me.

You want boring? I first started reading War and Peace five years ago and just finished it tonight (there were several start and stops in that time.) As a review, I will say this: clocking in at 1225 pages (pre-notes), it can probably be used to knock someone out.

I have a good feeling about Epignosis. That's about it.

Tell me about dunya.

The fact that I have been wrong about her since I first met her has made me re-assess the way I perceive her, so I actually feel pretty decent about her right now.

What about her gives you that impression?

She's looking pretty regular. Admittedly, this game started out a bit looser in the first few pages than they usually do; it doesn't seem like people were really acting seriously (myself included). But, yeah, pretty regular at any rate.

Bit of a busy day today. Posting to say I am up to page 11ish. Will have great thoughts tomorrow.

Gameset.
Has there ever been a game where all of the mafia were the top posters? I don't think so. This is exposure bias. You are forgetting that there are several low-lying players in this game who could easily have scum role cards and have not had occasion to bare themselves in the open yet. The day 1 thread environment so far has funneled attention onto a few select people, making it a piece of cake for others to slide by unscrutinized.
... do I need to point out that I was only joking? Really?

Following Mac’s lead here, this nutella post reads very false. And like she found something she could pick at based on its logic that has nothing to do with who is or isn’t bad.

His vote on you which he apparently retracted (but not fully) when it proved unpopular, and general attempts at hiding under the radar, made him look the most suspicious out of everyone at the time of my wallpost. I'd like to see his response first, though.

It was a joke.

Are you voting him to get him to talk more or out of suspicion? He doesn't seem to care much about reading and catching up this game. I guess if he's bad he doesn't need to.

What would give you the impression that I don’t care about such and such?

Why is there no follow up after these questions were answered? What's the point of asking these 3?

Why is there a problem with me asking questions?

Filterless = say whatever you have in mind without caring about the effect it will have on people's view on you. How did you interpret it as filtering racial epithets when Sloonei and Nutella never use them and I put you with the exact same accusation? Playing dumb here?

I thought I was making an obvious joke. So obvious that I now wonder if one of us is not (as you put it) “playing dumb”

Regarding Luna, I’m not sure if she is brazen enough to say that people should suspect her more if she is scum. I don’t know her to be very WIFOMy.

Regarding Jay, I don’t have any idea what the argument w/ Jack and dunya was about despite reading all of it, but Jay is playing to his town meta. He also made this post that eerily echoed a thought I had right before reading it:

JaggedJimmyJay wrote: ↑Tue Mar 19, 2019 8:26 am [VOTE: poutanko] aubergine

Your reads aren’t developing. You’re shoving misshapen pegs into improper holes to keep your suspicions relevant.

I could in all honesty go either way on poutanko because I’m not very familiar with their playstyle, but the read on me does feel somewhat arbitrary, particularly the insistence that there’s something nefarious in me asking questions on points I’d like clarified. I would feel more comfortable voting for poutanko than others.

Describe Jay’s town meta.

I think it would be easy to contrast his play here with his play in SHP, for instance.

Jay’s town meta takes no prisoners. Very exacting, asks good questions, generates logical reads. Super Town, etc. Effort is always fakeable but here it seems par for the course so far.

I don’t know anything about Shockheaded Peter, having said that.

town meta in this game is worthless atm. there's 2 scum team. it's the easiest thing in the world to actively hunt even if you're bad when you are...actually hunting.

meta can come into play in full force when we have flips and start making connections with the dead players.

Good point that I keep forgetting.

[VOTE: poutanko] aubergine for now.

Nova I struggle to remember doing anything yet. I think it’s both fair to suspect Quin for the reasons you’ve outlined but also a little unfair given IRL constraints. If I had a gun he’d be on my shortlist.

I asked dunya those questions because I wanted to see what the answers were. Why do you keep asking why I asked those questions?

People ask question to get better read on people they ask or those being talked about in that question.

Right ... so are you just accidentally forgetting that when you dig in against me, or is it calculated?

Why do Colin and I look worse? Why does nutella look better?
Nutella's response to it and her reaction to other players afterwards (still not as she was on Hogwarts, too quiet and not as free flowing).
Colin looks like he just showed up to randomly ask this and that but little to no follow up to whatever he asked. Just a show and nothing more.
You, read my previous post before this one.

Yeah, no.

Since you’re either tunneling me or latching onto a post that every other player in the game finds exceedingly average for the sake of making a fake suspicion appear real, I’m exiting the interrogation. If other people also think I’m scum for ... mmm, I don’t know, breathing, then they can feel free to lynch me.

Pretty sure I did my own with Sloonei earlier today. You're not that special to be tunneled on. Also, you make OMGUS vote with additional "for now" (preparing to escape if people move from my wagon?)

Nah, I think it’s staying right put today.

All my reads are pretty much gut. I am not as sure what to make of poutanko after some suggestions she made seemed to value gameplay over chaos, but my PoE would be her, Long Con, Audrey (neither having done much), speedchuck (gut read), and DFaraday (gut read). If a louder voice is scum, then I have a hard time saying anyone other than Sloonei.
