Felt Mafia 3 [EndGame]

Never forgot anything I heard

it's glorious, the annoying part is remembering every lecture for the last 5 years, and how predictable people become

...and the "bullshit" enthusiasm most lecturers use. something I really didn't comprehend until I was long since graduated.

[robyn]

enthusiasm

enthusiasm was so stupid when a lecture takes less than one realization by me, made me enjoy my phone for stimulation that the lesson didn't provide. in most classes i'd be on my phone 24/7 and participate a lot so teachers let me do whatever since i'd just mess with them and invoke contradictions or questions that were outside of the scope of the class if pressed

[Roxy]

I would love to have my picture taken with a baby lion. I am late with that but I adore Mongooses funny thread shenanigans.
My favorite holiday cookie is peanut butter with chocolate chips.

Fossa > Mongoose

Nah. The Fossa's nose looks like Rocky Balboa after his fight with Apollo - that nose is HUGE






The Mongoose's face is nothing but adorable nothing to detract from it's cutness such as a HUGE nose. Did you notice the pupils of its eyes? ADORABLE. Plus Rikki-Tikki-Tavi.




Fossa<<<<<<<<Mongoose. imho

You should go to law school. I used to always argue the position that was contrary to the majority of the students (and usually the prof). It used to drive me nuts that all of them were just arguing the side they felt they were "supposed" to be arguing as opposed to what they really believed.

i've been doing that since 10th grade, arguing the expected answer became too easy, and i thoroughly enjoy real dissent. in socratic circles when i'm prepared i'm usually the one that takes control of the discussion between 10ish students wherein i say something that's just tricky with plenty of depth, and all the students find ways to argue and i argue back. i enjoyed it a lot because from what i understand people rarely speak freely or engage in arguments with me.

decided in 10th grade to not go to law school, decided in 7-8th grade to phd

[robyn]

though i'm sorta burnt out so a cs major seems fun

Ooh, thank you, Rox. I am quite pleased with my eyes too.

Morning Check-In/Optional Prompt:

I've got a Zoom book club today and we are discussing the four Amgash/Lucy Barton novels. I am so ready to discuss them! So this got me thinking: What was the last book you couldn't wait to discuss with someone?

I was so sad none of my book clubs picked up Remarkably Bright Creatures, Hurricane Girl, or The Cartographers this year, but wow did I love reading them. What about you?

[sabie12]

I also always used to have a great memory and didn't need to take notes much or read the texts in school, but that has since changed. Its harder for me now, but I get there eventually. I've been really into the Scythe book series. It poses a lot of interesting moral and social questions while also being an interesting story.

This made me giggle out loud thanks for Saturday morning smiles!

I've been reading childrens books only and trying to find some that I can margin write for my Granddaughter my fave so far I found was The Boy, The Mole, The Fox and The Horse by Mackesy. I adore it's messages.

@Neon Not sure yet but eye was drawn somewhere D 0 but I'm giving it a chance since it was only D 0. So no name mentioning for yet. How about you?

Normally this would be OT, but since the host asked, imma call it topical. Last non fiction book I read that I really enjoyed was "I am Not a Serial Killer" by Dan Wells. It's part of a trilogy and I plan to buy the others after the holidays.

I have no reason to think Lucy is bad, she seems more interested in figuring out the last game to me so far, so I am not really seeing an agenda re this one. Civs generally always have the same agenda, if someone seems to have a different agenda, that's eye catching. But it's early times.

The only things that stuck out to me so far are Rondo calling out the first three people to post besides him and Falcon, but I didn't see his early game in LGM. This kind of thing could be the norm for him so meh. IIRC he pretty much voted for almost everyone every day, or nearly so, in LGM.

Another is Kate talking about how quiet it is with out Golden and Scotty, but not really engaging outside of OT herself. But it's early days, and I know she isn't feeling well irl, although I decided after last game to stop letting that influence me so much. I like to sort her out early becasue she can blindside me, although i can't remember the last time she was bad in a game where I was civ.

A third is Lemonfairy champing at the bit to start towards the end of zero, then falling off. Could be a time zone thing, I never played with them (hi new to me person!). I see you already voted for them; is this a real vote, a vibe vote or a placeholder until something better comes along vote? Do you have experience with them?

Other than that (and most of that is a stretch, tbh) everything else is pretty fluffy.

Just look at his clothes, and the people he hangs out with!



I've seen Pawn Stars, and professionals judge a book by its cover all the time

Optional prompt: tell us about your favorite holiday cookie. (I like a white chocolate cranberry blondie bar).

I don't eat holiday cookies
I don't even like cookies that much ;P

Hello everyone! I am very happy to be your MoD for this game!

If you are not familiar with TS's MoD policy, every game has one or more moderators on duty (MoDs). I am an impartial third party that anyone can come to if something during the game upsets you or if there are any issues between you and another player or the hosts! If you're feeling angry or frustrated or if you just want to chat, please reach out to me. You can vent to me or I help give advice on how to calm down, whatever you need. I also may reach out to some people as needed just to check in with you and make sure everything is going okay!

I can be reached by PM here on TS or on discord at Seanzie#1114. Looking forward to reading the game! Good luck and have fun everyone!

Hi folks, I will be the second mod on this game. I'm a little late coming in here because I have been sick this past week and I didn't realize it had started already. I haven't had a chance to read what has happened so far because I was focused on knocking out some work since I was behind from being sick. But I will be jumping in and being present with you guys from here on out. If you need me, feel free to reach out here by PM or on discord: Spacedaisy42 #3716.

Remember to respect the other players and have a great time!

so now i pose the question, even if i was a wolf, do you think you could have successfully caught me based off my current actions

I've caught others by doing this.

By doing what? Asking this question?

[DrWilgy]

Hello there... It's me, Wilgy.

congratulations on your retirement

Oh no. I am I being fired boss?

[DrWilgy]

Late Afternoon Check In:

Let's say you could have your photo taken with any animal. What would you choose and why?

Probably my dog. He's a good boy.

[DrWilgy]

I've caught up... Falcon and Neon seem to be Mafia.

Neon's energy does not match my expectations, it may be AI... I think.

On this list, Lemonfairy is new to me, I played with TSP a few time, but I don’t recall his game well, so he might as well be.

oh yeah, it's my first game on this site
fun

I signed up to play mountainous but the game got canned (sad)
so I thought I might as well play another one since I already have an account

[Lemonfairy]

I stand by my statement of not liking cookies
cookies are overrated and other baked goods are better

to play mountainous games
I kind of just answered that but it's ok

[Lemonfairy]

idk, having off-topic discussion in a different color and being able to talk at night might be a bit of an adjustment for me
didn't really expect those when signing up but I'll manage

what else
idk, everyone's posts have been fine probably
unsure how different this site's playstyle is and if that will make me more lost but it's ok if I am - I'll try to take it easier this game
it's whimsical, after all

Well Welcome, then. It's my second (and a half) game back after a long break. Where do you usually play?

It is my preference to not vote to eliminate people on Day One of their first game, although I get the impression that that is old fashioned of me. So you're safe from my vote for today.

It's always interesting to hear the insights of people new to us. Also cookies = awesome But cheesecake is pretty awesome as well.

also, this is the first time I joined a game somewhere new/a new type of game and didn't rand scum
which ig is good but it broke my streak

thanks for the welcome
my homesite is NUF (Novel Updates) but I'm playing on FOL and MU recently, more on FOL ig

you can vote me if you think I'm scum, it's fine and part of the game - ik it's more your preference but idk, I definitely would have no qualms voting someone new just because they're new
I also love being NK'd regardless of my role but I feel like I'll live for a long time this game, if just because I'm new to the site

I love cheesecake, it's 100x better than cookies
can't have too much of it though - everything is better in moderation

@S~V~S What made you think Lucy and I don't have BTSC?

not trusting svs’s not BTSC after she botched that read last game

[robyn]

no* not not*

[Kate]

@S~V~S What made you think Lucy and I don't have BTSC?

not trusting svs’s not BTSC after she botched that read last game

Which read?

[Dennis]

@S~V~S What made you think Lucy and I don't have BTSC?

not trusting svs’s not BTSC after she botched that read last game

The only one I remember last game was on me, and she was right. I didn't have BTSC.

[S~V~S]

@S~V~S What made you think Lucy and I don't have BTSC?

The conversation you had with her about Istanbul/Mujahadeen felt real. It did not feel staged, it did not have that chatroom, "Let's go banter in the thread!" feel about it. Especially the way you ended it,

Oh wow you sound like Mr. Talbot

Sorry, but I'm not very interested in history or politics. Most of it goes right through my head. I know hardly anything about the Cold War too. But if that's what makes you happy then you have fun, don't let me stop you

...followed by her attempting to reengage, but you just ignored it. It had an, "OK I'm done with this" feel to it.

@S~V~S What made you think Lucy and I don't have BTSC?

not trusting svs’s not BTSC after she botched that read last game

I botched what? And what would that have to do with this read? I spent most of LGM thinking you were bad, and Dennis was civ, both of which were true. Although I did misread Sabi and Soneji quite badly. I don't have a sense of either of you yet here (although as I said to Neon, I got no sense of an agenda from you in this game, either). My point about the convo here was that it did not feel like two people with BTSC. With masons in this game, it is not a statement of suspicion. It just means if it comes up later in the game, I might exclude you from being compatible with each other as teammates.
