I think the Jack/Nutella thing was interesting, primarily because of reactions to it. Tedxtr's reaction was notable, like he was incredibly pro-nutella and focused on nutella. Dunno if that's changed.

@tedxtr do you know nutella prior to this?
What is this post

Is it blank? I feel like I'm looking at a blank post here

This is kind of weird tbh. "Is this a blank post" and then she proceeds to answer the question in another post. Obviously it's not blank. The Nut/Ted connection is maybe something to remember if one of them ever flips scum. I feel some awkward energy there.

What do you understand the case on Nutella to be?
What is your view of the Radish case/how does it (not) make sense to you?

Of course not. But the read is not unique.
But I'm curious though, why did you ask if the read was legit when you had snap town read me anyway? Or like... I don't even know. It's ok really.

I should clearly go to sleep. Good night, all.

I don’t see people saying why that’s the case.

I still don't have any idea what any reads on Nut or Jack is about at all. Even when I've asked a few times.

[VOTE: Sabie] aubergine
You played one game with me that I can recall and you were mafia and I told everyone you were but no one believed me and then you killed me night one.

I'm terrible at day 1 reads and usually take a little while to get momentum going and be more involved. My playstyle doesn't make sense to some people but I still win games so I must be doing something right.
True. And then the game where you were scum and very uninvolved (I started out town, was killed N1 and replaced in as scum again).

I really just want more. But it's ok.

But also, yes, you did say I was scum D1 that game, and gave other reads too. So you can't be that terrible at D1 reads. (And we're all terrible at D1 reads lets be real). You could attempt to read me for example? I understand you are busy and the game is overwhelming. But I'm just saying I haven't seen opinions from you that stands out.

S-V-S may be ok actually.

I want Turnip to be the oracle I need. A girl can dream.

S~V~S wrote: ↑Wed Feb 26, 2020 7:27 pmlinki @ Dys

I would say you have not seen my bad game and I probably explained my self meta poorly. And I hope I did not come across as snarky, that was not my intention. I look forward to learning your game better!

Oh no, not snarky at all! And same. Also, cute dog. ^^

S~V~S wrote: ↑Wed Feb 26, 2020 7:08 pmYes, that is what I am saying. You put me at the bottom of your rainbow earlier, you must have read my posts.

Is this meant to imply that you have pointed out this connection (Nanook+Radish) earlier and I should already be aware? I can't track everyone's reads, so I might just ask again sometimes.
I wrote my rainbow in the order I thought about certain players, not in order of suspicion. So at the time Radish was my highest suspicion, not you. He might still be actually.

Nanooks outburst felt to me like frustrated baddie chatroom anger spilling into the thread, I said pretty much this last night and more clearly this AM. But i am not as sure of their games so I was going to watch and see. I think he got too angry about a person not himself getting poked for something he felt was stupid. Annoyed, sure, but he seemed actively angry. I could be wrong, but this was how I felt.

I agree, he seems angry. I also thought of the angle of scum getting caught for "wrong" reasons. But I feel like he slipped town righteousness in the "I must suck at this". I don't think he's scum poking fun at the fact that everyone thinks he's suspicious. Does this make sense?

And your game, and Teds, as well, your mindset, how you look at things. All these votes you make for no real reason and keep changing them, for instance. I am not sure what the point of that is, although I am sure there is one. I don't quite understand your process.

That's fine. I'm mostly actively looking. I don't want to focus on just one thing. But it's chaotic in such a big game. Some players experience my play as chaotic too, I guess. I like to move my vote around a lot for various reasons.

Teds reasoning for what he does and thinks seems different enough to my own that I don't quite "feel" him yet. I am an intuitive player, I go by tone and feel, and sometimes I have to watch a person before I get a feel for them. People tend to think I am bad before they get to know me and my game, and that is frustrating as hell, so i try not to do that to other people if I can avoid it. Different =/= bad, so i will often reserve judgment if I don't grasp a persons motivations and/or actions.

Sure. Intuition is a great tool. What if I told you that going off of your self meta, I would think you'd lean more scum than town in this game?

---

But also, I've noticed S-V-S being town read by players who probably know her a lot better. Maybe it's been explained, but I wouldn't mind a recap of that as well (?)

Epi ctrl+F "fuck" confirmed.

S~V~S wrote: ↑Wed Feb 26, 2020 6:48 pmI would be OK with a Radish lynch as well, Nanooks reaction to that whole thing last night was too strong, I don't think I buy that he was an outraged bystander. I don't understand Ted or Dyslexicons game yet.

Does this mean you think Nanook is teamed with Radish?
What does it mean that you don't understand my game (or Ted's game)? Can you be more specific?

Master Radishes wrote: ↑Wed Feb 26, 2020 6:42 pm Someone else did an early way-too-full reads list too, I think. I can't remember who.

Mac just copied Jimmaaay's. Probably a joke. Jimmay was the one with the full read list. Let's wagon. It's a great idea.

I didn't even realize Sloonei was voting Radish. There's too many players to keep track of. I want us all to die soon. In the game.

Sloonei wrote: ↑Wed Feb 26, 2020 6:30 pmJack, SVS, juliets, sig are town.
nutella and ted are a tier below but still town. I think I feel good about Michelle too.
I tend to trust Jay out of the gate because we think along similar lines. If I find myself disagreeing with him down the road, he becomes a suspect.
Radishes is the only solid suspect that I have right now. I would like to branch out from that, but I'm lacking energy.

I have expressed most of these reads prior to now.

Alright. Thanks for the recap.

Assuming/searching for scum partnerships on Day 1 makes me do fart noises.

But it fell into my lap.
I like to throw it out when I notice it. It may be relevant later. I just played a game where I called out such a connection on D1. I was killed N1, and lo and behold, those two were in fact scummates. When they went on to win the game anyway, without me being able to do anything about it, I made the biggest fart noise I've ever made. Real fart. Plus mouth fart noise. It was truly something.

We should wagon Dom as well.

Master Radishes wrote: ↑Wed Feb 26, 2020 6:20 pmOh right, I forgot they're not in order. Eh, not putting in the work myself.

Roster size depending, 4th slot is more often the scum slot than any other slot, in my experience. (I've not done any statistical analysis of this.)

Yeah, I've heard that before about the 3rd or 4th vote, but it kind of makes me want to do fart noises lol. I feel there are way better tells with any particular vote in any particular game than what a universal number can be.

I don't know why I feel resistance to read S-V-S as town. Cause she probably very well could be.

I miss Mac's big D =(

Sloonei wrote: ↑Wed Feb 26, 2020 6:16 pmYou've been saying this all game and haven't even hinted at a reason why. Why?

Well, strike the beginning of the game, cause I hadn't even read your posts. But I don't really remember much from your posts tbh. So maybe a better question is - what does your reads look like at this point?

Ok, good. Maybe Juliets is town or at least not da evils.

Sloonei wrote: ↑Wed Feb 26, 2020 6:06 pmMy perception of town juliets is that her early-game efforts are mostly spent keeping tabs on things, making sure she understands what's going on, before diving into things later on. When I've caught her as scum in the past (once, maybe twice?) it was because she was a bit flat and not so forthcoming. She's looked more like the former so far here.

Ok. But I'm impatient.

[VOTE: Sloonei] aubergine

Any reason I should town read you? Cause I don't.

Sloonei wrote: ↑Wed Feb 26, 2020 6:00 pmI am currently town-reading juliets. Can you convince me otherwise?

No. There's nothing there afaic.
Can you explain why you read her town?

I wish we could multilynch. Scum the lot of you.

Sig, will you ever stop tunnelling Nanook? Do you have other scum reads?

I appreciate Radishes content, but I still don't trust him. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

But also

[VOTE: Juliets] aubergine

I've not seen anything for her that sticks out or anything that she couldn't also just say as scum. I cri evertim.

Master Radishes wrote: ↑Wed Feb 26, 2020 4:47 pm I've not voted yet so I haven't seen the poll. Who is in the 4th slot on Nutella, Jack, and/or me?

Thar be scum. Bet me.

I don't think the votes are ordered so in that case you'll have to go back and see. Are you saying the 4th vote on a wagon is scum? Cause...? I don't believe in number magic in mafia myself but ok.

Is there any reason not to go for a wagon on Mac, Juliets, G-man or Sabie or someone? I realize Sabie said she was going to catch up, so I could wait for that. But all of these are underwhelming to me.

Master Radishes wrote: ↑Wed Feb 26, 2020 4:37 pmI get what you mean about this completely; you're just misinterpreting where the 'performative' bit (maybe not the right word - more like adopting a persona?) comes from. I'm playing in a game with a bunch of people I don't know but who know each other, but have the confidence to 'go against the grain' as you say, as this isn't my first rodeo. I'm not consciously adopting a persona (okay, that was also the wrong phrase) but, yeah, my internet/mafia style tends towards dismissive and sarcastic in the early stages of games, especially on sites I'm not familiar with.

I guess I'd say it sounds like posturing. Also a bit aloof. I read back in your ISO now and I still don't get a good vibe. I don't understand why the "Are we ever going to stop talking about the significance of ice cream flavor and do I need to care?" exists. I don't care for the "I like sloonei but I don't remember why", which you also did with Nut later. That's the kind of lolzy aloof attitude I'm comfortable holding up myself as scum. I realize I'm just reiterating my points again. I just don't think my feelings have changed. Though I do appreciate you being active and involved in the game, whether my read is correct or not.

Master Radishes wrote: ↑Wed Feb 26, 2020 5:36 pmI sort of liked his play from what I'd noticed, but his vote on me is very wagony.

Will ISO Sloonei in a bit, as requested.

I'm distrustful. Cindy Kate has some very good mafia players and a mafia bias in general (not as strong town play as mafia play imo). Though Jimmaaay has often been town and is very good at that and very active. I'm just a bit extra careful. Same with Sloonei. And probably others tbh. But it's not like I have a conclusion anyway.
