I’m just not sure mafia sig comes out and brazenly exclaims what he does. I agree that if everyone talks in complete sentences like I am acutely aware you are doing, that role becomes useless.
It just sounds too robotic. And I, for one, am not a robot.

Noted.
I had no actual suspicion of you at the time that I called you mafia. I was just bored and wanted to say something that provoked a reaction in the thread.
Your response has seemed a bit measured, which has introduced just a sliver of real suspicion.

I find it convenient that you are taking the high road there because town should afford the mafia no extra help in the form of any errors. Nothing lost by saying on D5, “That mafia role isn’t checking my role, because I colored within the lines.”

Axe has a habit of coming into a game with a false pretense or at least withholding reads.

Vivacious posting today, it seems. Too bad I no longer play mafia while at work. Might as well re-read the whole thread while I paint pumpkins and catch up on the bills. I’ll offer what kernels I can, but I’m just as useless on Day 1 as I’ve always been.

Re: Anniversary Game 1 - Classic Syndicate [Day 1]
Just started work, so I can't wallpost or anything, but here's some takes:
Scotty's insistence on the Eloh scumread feels forced. Possible distancing. sig is a good boy if true.
Axe is a zero-faith townie, reminds me of Phenon where I just shat in everyone's cereal in some weird sussy town performance.
The bea train is garbage. Looking at that in more detail tonight.
Llama needs to explain his rainbow, The bit about me, specifically.

Right, you said you weren’t one to vote early, but wholly offered that sig could be bad. That was your only read at the time. Tomato/potato.
“Maybe it's not a slam dunk bc he is scared to get it wrong. Or maybe it's not a slam dunk bc he is bad and just trying to make a semblance of a baddie read on someone to make it look like he is trying. This response looks very bad to me.”
Correct that I don’t want to get it wrong. I think I tend to struggle on correct D1 reads. But a broken clock is right twice a day, eh?
If I had edged off you, would that response have looked better? I’m just continuing to get OMGUS vibes here.
@Elohcin If you could vote someone right now, who would you vote? GTH, as they’d say

Instead of following the narrative “learn from the past’s mistakes,” I choose to “make mistakes in the future.” I choose to never make new beginnings by always postponing the endings.

A) I am Bea (pronounced bee. Short for Beatrice.). I am usually extremely cheery especially at the start when I am just happy to talk to people. It's been like 8 years since I've played so I am probably extra cheery.
B) I, sadly, have been voted on for less.
C) I am curious as to what happened to point D in the list.
That makes my heart sad. Even if it was short lived.

Adverbs in generaly VASTLY improve communication. They can also HEAVILY color meaning in terms of connoative associations.

This all vibes better for golden imo. Far too many mafia games lose civ DF for low posting right out the gate if memory serves correctly.

I am not mafia. I have however been gone a long time. Getting acclimated after a long break isn't a baddie behavior per say. In my case, it is "I've been gone a long time. Dusting off cobwebs is strange. My enviornment is both strange and familiar."sig wrote: ↑Mon Oct 24, 2022 5:00 pmI could see this.

As for the vote, I don't really know. Day 1 is hard. All the cases seem pretty weak. I generally see the good in everyone.
Aww, I like these posts. Dunno why. You shall not die today, bae
Day 1 IS hard.
Plus, if you *are* mafia, hopefully we can catch you in a lie later if you truly are such a terrible liar

Re: Anniversary Game 1 - Classic Syndicate [Day 1]
I actually felt like your response was you "edging off me", so I'm confused by the question. It's like you thought, "Shoot, I really could be wrong here so I'm going to back off and say that my theory wasn't a slam dunk," after driving it hard for so many posts. You backing off is what made me question your civ status further. You may say I did the same thing with sig (flippity-flop), but really it wouldn't be true. I made a couple comments, in a tired state, about sig being sus right before going to bed. Then, when I woke up and saw comments about it, I reread the rules and roles, had a derp moment, and backed off. I really think you just need to let that go and let us move on.Scotty wrote: ↑Mon Oct 24, 2022 7:12 pm“@Golden I never voted sig at all, btw. just talked about him in the thread. I don't like movable votes at all and I think Llama explained my thoughts on it very well, so I won't repeat.”Spoiler: show
Right, you said you weren’t one to vote early, but wholly offered that sig could be bad. That was your only read at the time. Tomato/potato.
“Maybe it's not a slam dunk bc he is scared to get it wrong. Or maybe it's not a slam dunk bc he is bad and just trying to make a semblance of a baddie read on someone to make it look like he is trying. This response looks very bad to me.”
Correct that I don’t want to get it wrong. I think I tend to struggle on correct D1 reads. But a broken clock is right twice a day, eh?
If I had edged off you, would that response have looked better? I’m just continuing to get OMGUS vibes here.
@Elohcin If you could vote someone right now, who would you vote? GTH, as they’d say
I hate GTH questions and refuse to answer them.
New read, Bea is civ bc she would know when day ends if she had BTSC.

EBWOP: actually...if you really were scared you were wrong, then you'd have to be civ. It's getting close to my bedtime again. I'm useless in the evening and should not play mafia at this time. This is why I work during the first half of my day. I don't know what I think anymore.

Re: Anniversary Game 1 - Classic Syndicate [Day 1]
I’m reading Bea as civ too, although I always take my reads of her with a grain of salt because she is good at seeming civ when she is not.
I can’t decide if Axey is a particularly unhelpful civ or a baddie. I’m trying to avoid talking myself into lynching someone simply because I am clashing with their style. Still, I am really pinged by the fact that other people keep defending him by saying “pay no attention to that man behind the curtain. He’s always like that.”
Sloonei is looking worse all the time. And for those who took him seriously, this is NOT his first mafia game.
