Think people would generally define me as a bit of a slow starter but if I’m at the quicker end of that range really it depends on what you define as slow.

I’m 20 if you ask a realworld calendar and in my 800s or so if you ask how many birthdays I’ve had

If I were mafia I'd make sure to discredit you at some point and then not care at all. I reckon that's what wolves would actually do fwiw, any active poster is a nuisance to deal with.

Remember this ^

all people have shown up and I have nothing but a weak scum lean

actually maybe two, I lied

No, I was not implying anything. It was a hypothetical scenario where I was assessing what scum would do if moth were a villager.

This is your second predatory angle.

So, w/r/t voting in polls, if I vote with 2 people and one of them gets cuddled tomorrow, do I lose stats?

Because my vote choice is exactly within the flash wagons that are bound to happen at EoD and I don't wanna get debuffed or something.

cute

This is the part where I declare that one of the weak wolf leans was actually you, and given that you happen to immediately point out a "gotcha.gif" that was clearly nothing scummy, you're not arguing in good faith and I have no interest in talking to a wolf read of mine.

this is a pretty disproportionate response to some very mild prodding lol

ok? what does that say about my alignment.

if you're gonna twist words, not sure what kind of reaction you'd really expect.

I actually doubt it was prodding. Your post had a direction already. You keep on following it.

First you twist my words and now you are looking for a push, all under the pretext that you were "prodding" my thoughts.

Like I doubt you'd actually already reach a level of "yeah this guy's outed" and make a genuine tunnel here and this post, by extension.

Your pretext for acting this way is that I implied a read, and when I explained the situation, you keep pushing while not pondering on it. I don't buy you actually thinking you caught a wolf here, and I don't buy your mindset / direction as a town here.



The second scum lean was Carotte. Her opening was pretty yikes.

i'm not really sure what you're talking about tbh

but it's day zero and i'm just poking at whatever catches my attention

"oops I fucked up"

~~~~~~~

you're Zack, you don't make pushes like these ones. If you do, the way you go about it is actually villagery, whereas here it just reeks.

see you later though, if you're town, i'll find ya

This game is going to be fun, isn’t it.

Carote’s opener is this :

Carotenoid wrote: ↑Tue Jun 23, 2020 8:03 pm How likely do you think it is that all the people that have posted so far are civilian?

Not whatever Marcher quoted, that was like her 6th post or something.

Nevermind, apparently Marcher had an issue with my interpretation of Carote’s opening?

I don’t see what the problem is there. “Hey guys, how many civillians have posted?” seems like about a pretty wolfy post, for an opener.

[mention]Marcher Jovian[/mention] Why do you like that particular post??

Hey, welcome to the Syndicate - you will fit right in.

Lol

Marcher Jovian wrote: ↑Wed Jun 24, 2020 4:39 pm #weirdreads: moth is town because if moth was scum all this talk would be in scumchat rather than in the main thread

??????????????????

moth you prolly just got threadspewed buddy

I ‘member these times. Luxurious privilege.

He’s been town read by a large group of people among which are probably wolves

Gonna do some re-reading as I wasn’t paying too much attention the first time around, also because today’s my final exam and then I can go back to being a degenerate

@Marcher Jovian Why do you like that particular post??

It feels like the kind of weird mindset post that comes from >rand town. Like mafia already know everyone's alignment. They know exactly who's posted and what their alignments are. It feels like the sort of random thoughts that town sometimes has that are hard to think of when you're mafia.

tl;dr lack of tmi

Maybe. However, it still feels like the post doesn’t achieve too much.

As a town, what’s your mindset when making that post? Like, are you asking anyone about their reads? Do you have everyone as town and you want to start a conversation on who’s what alignment? It’s not really doing much. Got a massive “keeping the appearances” vibe, but it’s not anything too strong.

I guess it could be that a wolf doesn’t usually post that but I’m looking more in the context of almost everyone having posted as well as what she was trying to convey by making that post.

Tbf, I think you’re entering a sort of “tell”, MSy type of hunting by doing this. She could’ve picked on this post as something that villagers like for an opening offsite, and used it here. But if you try and pick it apart in context...does she actually believe that everyone was town at the time of making that post? No scum leans at all?

You get my point.

[VOTE: Carotenoid ] aubergine

I wouldn't want to lynch Marcher because he feels different than the mash I played with him.

He's still scummy but I think most of it is just surface level / not really getting his push on me.

Looking at Carotenoid's ISO I don't know where to go, as in, I think the people she's pushing are wolfy and she makes very good points / she's pushing on good stuff.

Which would make her an excellent scum hunter or just bussing her partners / creating associations.

So I'm kinda stuck there.

You have to vote in the poll above, press the circle next to me and hit submit.

if you wanna let peeps know in thread when you voted, you can use [.vote] tedxtr [./vote] without dots, but the vote in the poll is the only vote that counts.

it doesn't count at EoD, you have to vote in the poll

Vote in thread : lets people know when you voted

Vote in poll : counts for an actual vote

Marcher, I supposed you were kind of memeing, but I suspect there's some relative conviction behind your moth read.

Why did you think wolf moth would complain about not being paid attention to by other people, in the wolf chat ???

Or rather, why did you think moth would complain about not being forced to interact with people that could potentially be town (no spew), as a wolf? I kinda have to make some weird assumption in order to meet this read, not really following your thought process. You think wolves would complain in wolf chat about not having to interact with people when spew is at bay? lol

Carotenoid wrote: ↑Thu Jun 25, 2020 8:58 am Why are the possibilities you're envisioning the two extremes?

Not sure what you'd like me to respond with here.

However, I think you have me at about a null or something, how do you feel about my vote on you?

Carotenoid wrote: ↑Thu Jun 25, 2020 9:07 am So either way, you think that I'm interacting with wolves. That makes the vote on me feels really opportunistic.

Ah I see where the problem lies.

I just think that you have sparks of pushes that aren't followed up, if that makes sense, when I feel like your line of inquiry would demand more out of a person. But it's some form of scattered hunting process that I don't really know what to deal with.

I am aware that it might be a play style issue that I have with you rather than straight up a scum read, but I still can't get rid of that irking feeling.

Something like that.

Didn't read too in-depth, I am more of a D3 player.

But given that I feel the direction of the thread and feeling some sense of suspicion on my slot with the current game state, I thought that I'd make a perfect flash wagon.

So I had to post my unfinished thoughts in order to change that, you know

Nah, my point was exactly that I don't get his thought process at all, hence the "I'd have to make some weird assumption in order to meet this read", or, if it helps you with anything "I'd have to make some mental contortion as a town to reach that thought process"

Make this game more fun, someone, please

Mac make a joke or something

i hard claim macho cop

the ball's on your court, wolves

But you said "moth doesn't complain about this in here and does it in wolf chat"

The tone with which he posts it is completely different from the argument of "he doesn't post this as a mafia in thread, and DOES IT IN WOLF CHAT"

Did you like...not mean that and meant the way he went about it is villagery, or what?

It's one thing saying "I like how moth is speaking" and a whole another thing saying "He doesn't do this in here and does it in wolf chat"

Why would he even complain about not being engaged in thread, in wolf chat??

Sloonei disagrees. What do you see?

That read is a read that a villager never cares to make. He moved the goal posts, once I called him out on him not arguing on the same read, he came back to his old "he didn't post this in wolfchat" in order to reinforce his stance.

I think the whole thought process is just contrived.
