Sloonei -

Spoiler: show

points that cant be solved with quotes -
- sloonei is very open about their opinions which is towny
- was pretty argumentative early game over reads, which is a quality possessed by most town (its a good quality)
- genuinely seems concerned about the towns well being
- driving a lot of discussion about important things with questions

Sloonei wrote: ↑Fri Jan 11, 2019 1:49 pm Epi helped turn the thread into an off-topic debate about language. Epi was then antagonistic toward the resumption of gameplay without contributing any fresh reads or opinions himself. Epi is a bowl of chocolate ice cream.

epi is the only read i have
a slight townread
for him to hold up his argument like that, places him in town rn
What is this referring to?
the untrustworthy v. trustworthy argument
could you pull it up for us to see? and also, if you don't mind, tell us why you think it's trustworthy.

playing mafia like me is being bombarded with homework assignments sometimes. i apologize.
oh and i completely missed the last part

i feel mafia would choose to just step down from whatever argument theyre in rather than push thru it
see (my nutella read)
Epignosis is definitely not the type to play a soft or passive scum game. He's a very crafty baddie. He'd stick to his guns.
for whatever that's worth. I'm not saying you need to read him as scum, just that I wouldn't plant a town read on him specifically for that reason.

Sloonei wrote: ↑Sat Jan 12, 2019 3:23 pm Let's take a look at all of the posts in which Epignosis tells people they are wrong or acts dismissive of things that they've said (sticking to game-relevant content):
#1
#2
#3
#4
#5
#6
#7
#8
#9
#10
#11
#12
#13
#14
#15

Some of these are fair questions that I don't object to. This also is not a comprehensive list, as I left out some posts that were just continuations of conversations started in other posts on the list. The point I am trying to make, which I've been trying to make for a little while now, is that Epi's general tone in this game is antagonistic. I don't view him as being constructive with his questions or his input. I think this type of content serves to inflame the thread and keep the civilians from forming a cohesive and productive atmosphere. I think Epi is doing this intentionally. I think that's how he would play in a game like this when he's bad. I don't think it's how he would play in a game like this when he'd good. By "a game like this", I mean one that is relatively quiet, lacking on content or power roles, in which the town's success will depend on its ability to work together and eliminate the small team of baddies using nothing but in-thread evidence. By keeping the thread unstable, he makes it that much more difficult for us to do those things.

early scumread/suspicion against epi, whos lynch will decide their alignment
if scum sloonei is town
if town sloonei is almost always scum

Ice cream is a delicate thing that shouldn’t be blasphemies by toppings

The only acceptable one it a shake with oreos
i dunno about the self-vote, but I flung some poo flavored yogurt at sprityo and he responded with a too-casual joke that I didn’t like much.

early scumread on spirit placing them in a town bracket

sloonei is most likely town

i stand by the fact that epi is best lynch for tomorrow

Posted: **Fri Jan 18, 2019 6:27 pm**

town - the rest
scum - epi, reywas

Posted: **Fri Jan 18, 2019 6:28 pm**

im more willing to hang reywas here
theres still a small bit of room for epi so slide in for a town slot and kick someone else out

Lunalee wrote: ↑Fri Jan 18, 2019 1:04 pm Epi has swung from town to scum in my opinion because of the day 3 lynch. He refused to jump on the G-man wagon, (perhaps because he knew G-man was town and didn't want to be on it) but he then voted MM to just be off G-man. He didn't try to push anyone else. I would expect town Epi to have more of a fit close to EOD if he doesn't agree with the lynch options.

More of a "fit?" I assume you mean more of a "fight."

This was exam week. You will never get me to do anything you would expect me to do during exam week. I can be a stump, and people will start wondering if I am a mafia stump, but it is exam week. You may also have noticed that yesterday evening the bulk of my time was spent finishing the Game of Champions.

I refused to "jump on the G-Man wagon" because I correctly called him a civilian. I wasn't going to push for anyone else because I was too tired to care and had other things to do.

Brief thoughts before the night ends but I am still pretty distracted. I am willing to give menace another chance and would probably lynch Epi first. Would also consider nova or rey. I think sloonei is town at this point, Luna is a lighter townread.
