@Jack, any reason you aren't voting anyone even if you have a scum read in Gfish?
I like to vote once and I'm weighing my options. :p

Voted early in Phenom and got shot for my troubles.
Going to change my vote to Jack. What SVS pointed out, plus this post I'm quoting doesn't look good to me. Don't see what Phenon has to do with this in terms of voting or not voting, also Jack you never answered why only vote once?

Vote Jack

At least we have individualistic reads ot seems for those who voted.

What is the primary reason for your read on gfish and llama. Give me one sentence for each.
I honestly don't have much. Gut for Gfish which is basically doubting that the hunting he's doing is sincere. And for Llama I'm following LC and the fact that I don't particularly like Llama's comebacks.

Careful? Not especially, no. I'd describe myself as an analytical player, and I count understanding the meta I'm playing in as part of that. Especially given that the first few games like this over on the Realms had D1s largely dominated by meta discussion regarding lynching strategies, and it's not a format I'm especially familiar with.

Also, I could easily change from Nut to LC, I like his recent post on Llama, though I don't want Llama to be scum. But I think they're both town. Multifaction may make reads more unstable, but if I overthink that I'll go crazy.

colonialbob wrote:Like you said, I did let votes fly. But I figured I'd ask about typical behavior here, since I've seen several examples of people getting meta-lynched for behavior that's not universally scummy, but for whatever reason is on that site, and I'd prefer avoiding that for myself. That's true no matter my alignment.

Plurality voting is "person with the most votes at end of day is lynched", either with or without a no-vote option. On the Realms we've typically played with majority voting, where somebody is lynched as soon as they get half+1 votes (ignoring shenanigans) and otherwise there's no lynch. It's a surprisingly different style. I prefer plurality, because IMO it makes voting patterns more meaningful.
That is fair. Would you consider yourself a careful player? Funnily enough, the first(ish) game I played here (Phenon) I did something pretty off brand to the site and was a huge controversy because of it. I liked how it ended up though. :p

Ah, I see. I've played with both, and I think plurality is easier.
MovingPictures07 wrote:Hey Dizzy, way to puke some reads out. What does "soul read" mean, like a tone-based read? If so, can you point me to a particular post or posts by nutella and LC that inspired your perspective?
Hey. I guess it's like gut read, but mixed with previous experience. So you can't soul read a person you haven't played with before. It's a thing on PerC. :p I did point to the particular post of nutella though, pretty much the same as you said, though it was me-centered. I have the idea of being able to read LC on tone, and I don't really want to talk about how/why. Plus, I have questions to him now anyway. It's not a very strong read.

- I'm liking MP's contribution in the game. Not especially sold on him alignment wise, but sure he could be town.

- I like that Nifty is speaking highly of his own gut. It reads wanting to take responsibility or at least not give excuses.

- Some of the meta lists are interesting. I'm probably one of the players that knows fewer people here. Some of the lists didn't say much though, but I'm prone to writing too many words to so whatevz.
These are the players I've played with: Wilgy, Epi, Fred, Jack, LC, MP, Nut and Silver.

- Reading MP's meta of Llama, I feel like I can get that playstyle, and can be pretty much like that myself. That said it's probably not impossible for Llama to be any alignment here.

@Jack - You still didn't tell me who ABF is. =/ I also wonder what stock you put into the anti-alignments as this is a multifaction game?

@LC - I find your reason for suspecting me weird. Why do you base it on someone else's meta when you've just played two games with me, one where I was town and one where I was scum?

@MP - Did you ever expand on your Wilgy read? He isn't really standing out to me, so wondering about what you're seeing there.

I'm struggling a bit with getting strong reads. The only one that I have a bad feel of is Bob. I almost feel their treatment of me was a bit too nice. Also didn't like the carefulness in the beginning. Mostly this is a gut read.

Vote Bob


Come talk to me about why I shouldn't.

Would not want to lynch Nut, LC and MP.
If I were to give passes I would include Llama, Gfish, Nifty and Jack - some more for just providing content, and this game is already pretty slow.

I feel neutral on a lot of people.

What is plurality voting - that you can change your vote? Can someone give a cliff notes of the different cultures at work here? I'm really not from Cindy Kate or HCR. The true unicorn.

MP is always bad. He just has that sort of luck with Random.org. No, I'm not bad. In fact, my first post of this game was to point that out.
Aha! If we're anything alike, and judging from my background photo on my phone, which is a llama, we are - then calling myself town was exactly my first post in the game that just ended where I was scum. Dun dun DUUUUN! Would still never vote you, because we're friends, whether you like it or not.


@Jack - First of all - how dare you compare me with anyone!? :p I'm the unicorn of mafia. The pickle in the brownie. Who's ABF though? Did you mention the same thing last game, or did I create a copy memory of this?

---

There is a surprising lack of postage, and even more so, votage! And voltage for that matter.

People that has posted and I remember stuff from that gives me any type of feeling is Bob, Jack, Nut, LC and MP.
MP's clearing of Bob is a bit huh. I agree with Nut on that.
I don't feel any particular reason to trust either Bob or MP.
Jack has been helpful, but probably not alignment indicative. GTH town.
Nut and LC I both soul read as town.
I can give reasoning for the Nut read, and it's basically her having a gut read on me as town. Sure, scum can buddy and yadda yadda, but I don't see a reason for her to do this as scum. She just played a game with me when she town read me and I was scum. She could just not comment on it and justify that. So I think the feeling is real.
LC is a tone read.

There are SO many players I don't remember and probably a lot that haven't posted either?

Also, shouldn't MP have had like 50 posts by now?

Would literally lynch anyone but Nut, LC, Jack and Llama right now. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
