Mint chocolate chip is champion

You absolute shit

You absolute toilet

Entitled millennials don't think the rules apply to them. Typical.

nutella is mafia for writing in complete sentences.

Epignosis is a confirmed mafia teammate of nutella.

There you have it, gang.

Chocolate chip cookie dough is one of my least favorite ice cream flavors. I will never understand the fascination with that gross, grainy shit.

I what now

The thought came into my brain, so:

I looked at The Wire (town) and you were less complete sentency and Arrowverse (mafia) and you were more complete sentency.

The evidence before the court is incontrovertible.

It is 12:40 AM EST and Sloonei is not a civilian yet.

Tony made four jovial posts suitable for the Mafioso Looking to Get Comfortable game-opening archetype.

Man I don't like cookie dough with or without ice cream

What spice did you extract from our dear TonyStarkPrime's posts? Describe the spice to me, nutella.

I quite like incoherent chains of words, and I encourage you to provide such a thing if you believe it exists in your brain matter. There's little better way to assess a mindset.

nutella wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2020 1:57 am This honey badger don't give a shit, man. How you thought this was "mafia tryna get comfy" is beyond me

Could be. I'm referring primarily to making a joke accusation out of my disdain for cookie dough.

ted's response looked as if he was trying to shove me away.

I don't see that. It looks like you shoehorned that in there for attitude.

I have a suspicion of Sloonei.

Master Radishes, this is our first game together since the champs finale of 2015. I think you're the only one from that game I've ever been in a game with since (i.e. right now). It brings a tear to me aged old eye.

Sloonei wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2020 2:10 am How do you read him?

I'm not perturbed. Seems good.

Can I get some solid deets, or maybe a single deet if preferable, regarding this "meta" thing? How do Sloonei, Person #3 (need name), and I fit civilian metas as opposed to whatever you'd find suspicious?

The initial point of concern has not vanished, but I am withholding judgment for now. He's been forthcoming with reads, at the very least.

To be clear, is the point of concern that you feel he was pushing you away?

Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2020 2:21 pmNo.

How about Person #3?

Sloonei wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2020 2:26 pm It was that he seemed to be trying to dodge the responsibility of answering a generic Day 0 prod. Or night 0, whatever this is. I'm willing to give him time and space to settle into the game on his own terms, though.

Cool beans. Similarly, I feel that you've shied away from my accusation of you. Whaddap wit dat?

Sloonei wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2020 2:36 pm It doesn't move me very much. You'll see Town Sloon soon enough, and I can develop a read on you without it. If you have a specific point you'd like me to address, give it.

An accusation of you doesn't move you?

JJJ dissing Sloonei is inherently unusual and would on its own power seem to demand some kind of interchange -- one I wouldn't expect to have to press for. You suggested ted was sort of dodging you; I didn't get that impression. I saw him pose a philosophical question of general strategy (i.e. "how much can you really glean from X?") without a dismissive tone. Folks often don't know what to do with your questions, Sloonbeard, it's something that has gotten you into trouble.

Moreover, my initial spark of suspicion came as a product of "do you not want me to ask questions?". That is itself hardly an accusation, but it seems as though you bear some degree of suspicion of ted. That was unclear to me until I asked just now. Clarity is not something I am used to lacking with Sloonei.

Meh: you're just kinda meh, guess if I had to classify it in your archaic way I'd say mafia lean.

Pending a massive scum slip I'd say there's no real way to have a strong read this early in the game. So I am a bit antsy on the people who are throwing town reads like candy.

Did ted and Michelle earn their candy?

It would be ideal if ted could expand as we've already said. I'll interpret from there.

Generally agreed re: nutella. I liked her demand that you (Sloonei) and I stop beep booping as she perceived it. Her reception of my beef with you also rang authentic.

Sloonei wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2020 3:18 pm Why is SVS a plus? Why is sig a minus?

I appreciated the approach S~V~S opened with to check in with juliets, specifically juliets, about the meaning of the Day 0 poll. Given her time away from the game, old-school Syndicate norms, and her relationships with the players on this roster (many of whom I figure she does not know), that made sense to me. It looked like real brainstuff.

sig's "meh" reads on Nanook and I seemed arbitrary. The vagueness of "meh" aside, the inclusions of the reads at all struck me as off. [mention]sig[/mention] why are Nanook and I meh?

Good question. The answer? Reasons. What reasons you may ask? The reasonable type of course.

sig wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2020 3:29 pm First they're still leans. I'm not singing their praising or locking them people are already trying to form a town core which is all well and good until you accidentally town core mafia and they get away with sleazy stuff until it's to late. Which happens all the time.

Who would you say has been doing this?

Well that's a nice mark, Sloonei.

sig wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2020 3:37 pm Also I do have reasons for my Nanook/Jay reads, was planning until day 1 to start harping on them though.

I will have my eyeballs glued to my watch holding you to this.

Radish has made a decent number of posts and none of them have inspired any feeling in me, so that's a net negative.

juliets wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2020 7:43 pm Sloonei, I don't agree with him about S~V~S but if this is not laying the ground work to produce reads what is? I don't understand what you are expecting from him. Can you explain it a little more?

To clarify juliets, does this imply that you view S~V~S as good?

One time on my home forum I spent the entire first round just gif-posting a handful of times and not engaging in the game at all because I was busy. I got myself mislynched D1. But before I went, I made a final serious post in which I named the entire scum team.

Sometimes looking at something from the corner of your eye allows you to see more. /deep thoughts

Scum tbqh

I have a read on this post, TH. I would like to expand. But can you first tell me whether or not you were serious? Unclear

sig wrote: ↑Tue Feb 25, 2020 7:11 pm He was, probably since he's scum buddy with radish.

Am I correct in summarizing your suspicion that they're connected as:

1) Radish said "baddie"

2) Nanook doesn't think it's worth talking about

?
