I bet mafia-aligned players are more likely to conceive of this by page two than civilians are. How about THAT?

probably, but are mafia more likely to say it than town? no

No. That would be silly.
^^before i saw sloonei's explanation for his read on alison, i actually thought that his suspicion toward her was borne out of this specific interaction

alison is a very purposeful player, and i didn't understand her purpose behind asking that specific question to sloonei. it didn't feel like a question that was intended to get alignment indicative information out of sloonei, nor did it feel like a question that was intended to create a serious deal with him, so it left me scratching my head. it made me wonder if alison was asking an effectively pointless question for the sake of justifying her vote in the poll, and didn't feel comfortable placing a vote down w/out providing some kind of justification for it

i have no other thoughts about alison ATM

meh read. Alison makes OOG posts all the time

weak FOS Mafooa

if you were wanting to actually figure stuff out between them I have no clue why you say you have trouble believing it's real, rather than you're not sure of the legitimacy of it.

I lightly regret signing up for this because it's a reasonably sized closed game and I literlaly never want to play a multiball game again for the rest of my life

Hopefully it's not

saying you're not sure if it's real = assumption the person is making it up, i.e. mafia

Not sure of it's legitimacy = not sure if their case holds water without assumption on their alignment

Okay to clarify I was lightly suspecting Falcon because his case on Sloonei was flimsy at best but he was willing to move past so I'm not too worried about it

I don't really agree with that read but I suppose it's whatever. Personally I don't think it's scummy to have a weird read

why are you not comfortable giving a gth read
because the only thoughts i have about your alignment so far are centered around the ~vibes~ i'm getting from your opening posts & my meta on you, which you are more than capable of playing around. i need the game to go on longer for me to give a read on you that actually stems from a logical place

if i had to give a GTH read, though? town

why

thats weird

in fallout mafia you stated an early town read on me without problem

What's the difference?

I had more posts at the time, by about 40

But meh

I don't think it's realistically that hard to give a gth read on request early game

you were mafia, though. i've learned that the best way to read you is to keep a microscope on your progressions & the specific angles that you push, and the game hasn't gone on for long enough for me to have any meaningful opinions about you. even so, you have my GTH read on you

I feel like you're faking paranoia/skepticism cause you're not sure how you should go about reading me as mafia

But okay

she just townread you when you were a wolf. Do you not think that this would have any impact?

this was last month,

"i like esooa's p#214 (and gimmick in general) both because her gimmick is funny and because she's doing something unique and out-of-character without caring about how it's going to make other people perceive her. my meta on esooa is that she tends to carve herself into her own corners of the game as town and isn't afraid to do stuff that goes against the mindset of ~wanting~ to be townread - i think that esooa adopting her gimmick for as long as she did is something that bodes well for. i also kind of liked esooa hiveminding w/me about one of rex's posts being towny on p#241. i'm not going to pretend to know how to read esooa, but i get generally good vibes from her slot so far"

as the 305th post

After Jess town read me, while I was wolf, two games in a row

I don't think that is why she isn't giving a read on me

I don't think that is why she isn't giving a read on me
if i continually townread you when you are a wolf, then that should indicate that it's time to take a different approach to reading you, don't you think?

but this game was actually closer to the games you town read me while I was wolfing. Why change now, and not then?

this game being the one I quoted

to recap:

you asked me for my GTH read on you. i gave you my GTH read on you, and i don't feel like expanding on that read because most of it boils down to meta/tone, which you are more than capable of faking, and which i do not feel is a good baseline to read you from. i am reading you from a different baseline in this game. i don't have much else to say about it right now

okay. I don't care to say more. Just find it weird you didn't want to give a read on me originally

@staypositivefriend whats your jjj read

This quote is weird cause from what I know of jjj his typical approach is to direct town towards an atmosphere of solving the game

This feels showy and is contrary to that goal cause complacency in reads is very, just, not good in general lol

And this post is just wut. He wrote 3 sentences that say completely nothing

there was another post he made criticizing tsp I think it was, for speculating about multiball, which imo is a bad read cause most mafia would be self aware enough to not post that. I think jjj should know better than make that read. That, plus the tutuu thing, and his confidence, none of it feels natural

Would Jay struggle to produce more meaningful content if he was mafia?

I'm not going to level myself into making bad posts is towny, actually

if he makes towny posts I'll reconsider but atm no

it means Jay has bad posts and I'm not going to take "mafia would make good posts" as a way to disagree with that

I'm not going to find the post but his read on tsp early was also scummy imo

I still think the post is scummy because he uses way too many words in what appears to be an effort to now intricately than normally read tutuu while actually adding nothing of worth. If he had said something like "tutuu is still null atm" or whatever other such thing then okay. But I don't think the nature of the post is simply "tutuus entrance had been NAI"

more intricately than normal*

do you not think saying something is more likely done by mafia than town while quoting their posts is the same as scum reading a player

Alison wrote: ↑Mon Apr 05, 2021 3:35 am The real question is if Esooa would push on this point like this as mafia. I think it's within her scum range, not necessarily because she wants to get Jay killed (she can't, not with this case), but because she wants to be seen as tunneled town. I don't really get a strong impression one way or another as to how authentic this push is and think it's a coin flip. I do think her earlier insistency when arguing with SPF was townie. There she felt more like a townie who's bit on a solid lead, with the triumphant brandishing of the post from another game as proof that SPF was lying, and so forth. Here it feels more like she's repeating the party line because she's made up her mind about Jay.

I'm town and I'm not tunneled. I don't actually care about the jjj read past saying like, he's who I would kill if I had to right now

I asked Jess about the read to get more from her cause I generally like trying to solve jess

I argued about it with sloonei cause he was being annoying by being quoting my posts and going basically "no lol"

until he said more later though not anything to the extent of why jjj is actually town, just why he's not exactly mafia.

though I decided I'd rather just drop the conversation than try to figure it out
