oh wow on reread of that sentence that sounds really snarky and rude. that was a joke because she popped up when i voted for her then disappeared again, not being rude i swear pls don't hate me psinightmare.

I think dunya, esooa and PSI are towny

Dunya for aforementioned (is this the word?) reasons + her new posts now which i like, esooa for her being chill and i believe her, she is a very competitive person, PSI i just liked her wall post, i think those reads were reasonably not-the-easiest to fake as scum for most ppl. Also i still cant get over the fact that she said shes very sorry for laying low that was just so adorable and i wanna squish her

Posted: **Thu Dec 03, 2020 6:05 am**

Unless i get a scumread and unless im saving a townread i think i will selfishly not vote anyone at eod because i feel really bad when i misyeet people who are my teammates

Posted: **Thu Dec 03, 2020 6:07 am**

Just lost my confidence in those townreads

Posted: **Thu Dec 03, 2020 6:09 am**

I think playing mafia with friends is hard because it gets in your way of yelling at them that theyre mafia and deserve death. If u were to play with complete strangers or with socky accounts i think then ur power level is at its max

Posted: **Thu Dec 03, 2020 6:20 am**

Does anyone know where the fuck did the phrase "townshield" pop up from btw? Who invented it?i just remember that I see ppl say it all the time and ive been ignoring it but im surprised this became a real thing and i never noticed. Why not just say townread lol. "Stop yeeting X i am townshield(read)ing them"

my first thought when i saw this was ohhh i buy it. yep. i see why he did that.

but now at reread it's not like that.

if me and nutella are teammates, the hesitation isn't just phony, she's prevoted for who to eliminate this day phase and im pretty sure it isn't me. (even if nutella is actually wolf here, she's not voting me to be the d1 lynch for sure). why would she phony it in with me?

like, i think epignosis should conclude more from that nutella being w than dunya and nutella being w/w. it's very a strange progression. the words make sense, but just not entirely in this game setup.

i dunno if this is some magical distancing strategy from nutella and epi, but wolf epi would have a better reading of the game setup i think so im leaning town there now.

and im not bothered about town epi, cos he is an asset to town and will be able to see town dunya eventually. lean

i did mind gymnastics to get here. that's a weak ass read, im disappoint.

commenting on the nutella/dunya thing, I don't really think apprehension to vote there is as much of a partner interaction as epi makes it out to be. I also just forget to vote sometimes, I don't do it super often but maybe that's just me. But I think the way nutella voted and responded after being called out by epi was awkward and kinda has me giving them a scum lean.

I don't really know dunyas playstyle but she's put a decent amount of effort into working out this interaction, tbh I didn't like much of what she had to say (it wasn't bad but meh) but it's enough for me to town lean her for now lol. And besides that tutuu is obviously town she can never be mafia (as well as contributing a lot so far)

[VOTE: nutella ] aubergine

Posted: **Thu Dec 03, 2020 8:08 am**

oh yeah also, epi calling out nutella and me agreeing nutella is scummy makes me want to give him some town cred, but I found it really weird he calls out nutellas behavior then votes dunya for it. I don't really see why you wouldn't just vote nutella cause dunya from his pov is mafia way less unless he thinks that's literally always a partner interaction which, is odd

it's a thing from video mafia I think

when people put their hand up to the camera, "town shield" is when you cross your arms in an x to say say don't vote. It's a specific action done during voting when you can't talk is why it's a specific thing

im just going off of what she has told me about herself outside of mafia (before this game) (that shes competitive), and if i were to put myself in her shoes, i decided its probably towny for me if i decided to say that i wanna take it chill this game

anyway i lost confidence in all of my townreads as i said, im waiting for now

Posted: **Thu Dec 03, 2020 9:06 am**

i didnt find things psinightmare had to say in her readslist convincing at all; it felt like mafia struggling to find reasons why to tr or wr someone.

nutella doubling down on me felt very authentic and town-nutella-esque. but i'll get a better read on her as the game progresses.

i've never seen wold nanook ftr. but this feels like town nanook.

hmm, i find people who take a step back from their usual erratic posting style to be mafia-leans to me because it's hard to replicate that carefree posting style as mafia. i can post a lot as town, i can never post as much as mafia simply because i have the game solved. especially in a setup like this one where there's no 3p hunting or second mafia team where i can blend.

like nanook is lock town, never rescind.

epi and nutella are a coin flip. i would be very surprised if they were w/w and our jokey day 0 nutella to epi messages will go up in the hall of fame imo.

I think this post is amazing if epi is wolf, he seems truthful im his conviction that theres no way dunya could be yeeted d1 and yet he votes her right after, and the way he pieced it together with nutella being w/w with dunya. It didnt immediately jump to me as towny but now that i think about it this is extremely towny imo

my first thought when i saw this was ohhh i buy it. yep. i see why he did that.

but now at reread it's not like that.

like, i think epignosis should conclude more from that nutella being w than dunya and nutella being w/w. it's very a strange progression. the words make sense, but just not entirely in this game setup.

i dunno if this is some magical distancing strategy from nutella and epi, but wolf epi would have a better reading of the game setup i think so im leaning town there now.

and im not bothered about town epi, cos he is an asset to town and will be able to see town dunya eventually.

I didn't really understand the conclusion that you disagreeing with epi means he's more towny

this game would be even cooler if someone is the black 8-ball (in town) and town loses if this person is ever yeeted. like a mine in minesweeper.
