actual read: some of your posts this game have given me the impression that you're doing a sloonei impersonation
Didn't JJJ teach Sloonei everything he knows?

I’d still like to see their response but I’m [VOTE:

You apparently know Odd better than most of us. What can you tell us about him? How do you read him in this game so far?
he feels townish but take this with a grain of salt since its hard to use meta on him
the vibes I m getting from his posts so far are that he is trying to gather reads by saying blunt things
I really hate this read.
why??
btw I m seeing that I m in most people's POE why?? is that
I know I haven't done much but I m trying to observer since I m not used to playing here

@staypositivefriend how d'ya think you'll wield your vote once you decide not to chop yourself?
my vote would probably land on aL_sama, marmot, or ted right now. i honestly don't have a single name that i can point to as definitely being scum right now though - i moreso have the game divided between "probably town" and "probably not town"
I also had a salad for dinner tonight.
my number one takeaway from this game so far is that i don't understand what "salad" means :P
"I would vote A, B, or C" is close to the prototype for the player salad tell. It's suggestive of keeping one's options wide open when not comfortable committing to suspicions. What's holding you back from placing one of those votes right now?
that makes sense - i would say that i am thinking in salad terms right now because of the particular gamestate we're in
i'm not at a point where i can confidently point to one player and say "this person is a wolf", but i am at a point where i can point to a pool of people and say "this pool probably has wolves", and vice versa for town. the more specific wolfreads tend to come later in the game when i've had more time to interrogate people and feel things out
there's nothing particularly holding me back from making a vote right now, either. i just don't feel particularly inspired to do it at the moment. it'll happen
JJJ said this game would be easy, but it never actually is.
Also, that's a lot of adverbs and use of the word "particular" in one post.

ok ur right marmot spf is maf and ur town. so finger is town too
Just seems like a decent candidate when I stare at my POE. Their reads on tutuu and Oddmerta look a bit cooked.
how so??

Mafia-aligned BoKnows ISO in Bee Mafia -- scroll down for Day 1 stuff. At face value his posts are less opaque and goofy. There's an attitude of business here.

ummm ill be honest i kinda forgot why i scumread u but i remembe someone quoting something and bolding one of ur sentences and saying they think its a scummy sentence - it was eso or nook or falcon and the sentence was u describing me as calm cool collected and stuff
there was a reason before that i swear but god knows what it was

Nothing that tutuu seemed "pumped up" and treating as something important (without a clear stance taken) is just a little hard to believe. Your town read on Oddmerta seems kinda default, like it was a read you decided to have more than one you developed. You should definitely talk more about your reads though; it would be helpful.

I think Al_sama is probably mafia but they are not who I want to be killing day 1.
can you expand on this??

Straw also specifically mentions JPIC & Odd, both of them null/black font.
Mentions JJJ & Alison, both town reads.
Mentions BK, Essoa, Marmot, all scum reads.
Far and away, the majority of players Straw talks about are in his null section, and he only mentions 2 of 5 town reads.
I don't like that list one bit, it's safe and hedgey AF
All completely legitimate concerns. Hopefully this'll clear it up:
1. I used the @ Mention function mainly to highlight people for easy legibility in a wall of text, and to draw their attention to it in case they wanted to add anything, refute something I said, or whatever. Maybe I'm abusing that function.
2. My null/black isn't uniformly null/black. It's in rough order as well. E.g., JPIC is near the bottom of it because while I haven't seen anything to make his name redder, I haven't much liked what I've seen. (I'm gonna ISO him soon since he's been another center of conversation.)
3. My notes section was just that: notes. And I wrote them as I caught up on 16+ pages of the thread. They don't necessarily mean I'm reading someone one way or another; they're just things I thought stuck out.

Why? It could just be town wrong about town
i mean yes but whats the point in making any reads at all if anyone could just say why, u could be wrong
what
i made a read. u said "why, u could be wrong". i said - i know, theres no need to say that, everyone makes reads all the time and all of those reads could be wrong
No, i meant why do you think there is 1 mafia between the 2

I don't agree with this general statement, but whatever anyway. I wouldn't be surprised by a mafia SPF here. Despite some nice moments she seems like she is struggling to find her place in the game thread. Plus salad

Okay, so it's based on that you think Marmot is scum and me saying that I have good vibes about marmot immediately followed up with that the vibes wore off and it was due to the pfp?
My feeling about you was regardless of my feeling of Marmot. It was that you switched from having 'good vibes' to 'not good vibes' after Alison said Marmot was part of a scummy exchange. The timing seems really convenient.

well u seem to be taking stuff rly seriously from my pov and u seem to wanna die so it makes me think ur maf
i had mentally sorted strawhenge and fingersplints into the same tier of: "back after a long absence with towny openings". as my townread on strawhenge grew more confident with time, i decided that i wanted to re-evaluate my feelings about fingersplints as well
i took a peek at fingersplints ISO and got pinged by this post: https://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewt ... 29#p760229 . it felt to me like fingersplints was trying to "establish" his position in the game without actually believing in the stuff that he was saying. i was turned off by him outing a bunch of consensus townreads with the reasoning of: "this person feels genuine". i also felt that he had some strong reasoning on https://www.mafiathesyndicate.com/viewt ... 63#p760363 that he immediately invalidated by going out of his way to emphasize that he didn't have any ~actual~ read on long con
those two posts were enough for me to park my vote on him overnight and see how the thread played around it. i'm not sure about him being a wolf, but i do have some concerns about him. i am relatively lukewarm about his most recent posting

These people I feel good/ok about right now
Esooa
BoKnows
JPIC
I don’t remember what the term PoE that you all keep using means but perhaps it’s applicable here. This group I either have mild bad feelings about or are neutral to the point of wary/need revisiting.
MacDougall
Thanks for the list, splints. I isolated a few names that I'd be interested to hear more about when you have the chance.
Esooa and BoKnows are both my gut feelings based on how they played in Bee Mafia. Admittedly this is a limited comparison, so always could change. Especially since Bo deceived us all that game. I’m naturally a bit wary of any trust there now
JPIC - for now I just feel is asking genuine and insightful questions.
MacDougall - I recall a lot of people saying this is their town game, but I can’t recall why or any posts that strike me as particularly townie. Having said that, I don’t recall any that stood out as scummy either, so that ones more on the neutral side.
