Sabie doesn't have much down still. Would appreciate some discussion with her. Sabie, who do you think is mafia and why? What do you think about the use of subtitles in the original Star Wars trilogy, and their absence for R2-D2 and Chewbacca?

I just had a thought.

If the Vig is shooting tonight, you might want to claim before EoD today so that the claim is out there if you do die N1. Yes, I know I'm now outing myself as not-Vig by saying this, but I'd rather out this suggestion if people weren't sure what they wanted to do if they were Vig. As for the timing to claim, I'd try to do it as close to EoD as possible so that you can glean as much info from people without them knowing your alignment because people will start reacting to you differently once you claim.

IC claims, imo, work a lot like the council of joats for those who understand that reference, it's not really a problem to have multiples on day 1 or even later. I felt it was correct to policy claim it on a sub-in as town, and did... in retrospect too bombastic of an entry, worried this was going to be a high volume high pressure game like my previous MU encounters. This is much chiller and I'm super happy about that.

I don't know if TSP is the real one or not. I do like his posting, and in particular dropping "cayvie+mp7" as suspects right when he did is enough of a mindmeld (in the proper use, in the past and with zero prompting from my slot) for me to put him in effective never-yeet regardless.

I don't put wolves in boxes. I plinko board my thoughts. I think the phrase "process of elimination" is anathema to town success. I think a low number of large contentful posts is better than a flood of one liners. I find playing town much more stressful than playing scum and am geared to catch wily wolves rather than potato wolves. My process is very different, in many ways the exact opposite, of what seems to have become the norm in this strange new world. Some of you will probably not understand me, and that's fine. Some of you may be tempted to scumread me solely on playstyle, that's a little less fine. Keep an open mind, and we can work together and benefit from our different perspectives.
I actually feel a sense of relief reading this. :D I'm often put in boxes as both alignments, so knowing that you don't do the boxing thing makes me happy. Unfortunately, I am a PoE kind of player, even if I do end changing my PoE day by day (sometimes multiple times later in the game!). I definitely relate to feeling more stressed playing as town than as scum. I don't have to worry about being correct as scum. :D

OH! RIGHT! WE'RE AT THE SYNDICATE! :D I forgot! But yeah, in this case, the Vig should only claim D1 if they are close to being misyeeted. Otherwise, ALWAYS do it during N1 if you're shooting.

I'm glad this game isn't a million pages per day though at least so catching up isn't bad. I will read through again to see about reads.

I'm not sure if Tony legit claimed innocent child or just like said it randomly. I was under the impression there's only one so if there's two claims one isn't legit.
Please post more! ;-; I still haven't gotten anything out of reading your posts.

I feel like sometimes in the past my kindness or trying to get along with people has been seen as passiveness or pocketing or interpreted to mean something when in reality I'm just trying to be nice and enjoy the game.

I agree that the interjection itself was kinda awkward, but as I mentioned earlier, the thought behind it (Hally and I both being w/w and bussing/distancing from each other) was something that I imagined someone could have by looking at our interactions. I didn't see her reaction to TSP scumreading her though.

Oh! I remember seeing the "Hyena is self-resolving" comment and scratching me head at it. Like, considering how much suspicion was being thrown my way, I would've thought I'd be the least self-resolving person right now.

Wait, I think you misunderstood me. XD We would definitely call each other scum and kinda push for the other's yeet, but I wouldn't necessarily let her BUS me... at the same time, that's probably how it would go down knowing her, lol.

Are you legit asking or like being sarcastic? I'm going off of a recent game she was in as town. Also, the question was about pocketing so I didn't think that was what was happening.

Also I wish I knew how to make ISO links because that would be helpful in this game.

Also sorry I keep forgetting I'm in this because of other IRL stuff going on.

No, I'm town. :P

I like your town core atm. You and Ran would be higher ranked than Mist and Tony though, I think.

Also, I really need Sabie to post more. I feel like out of the three in your PoE, she's the biggest question mark for me. Because she is, I feel like I really ought to include at least one other person in the PoE (which would be Mist or Tony in this case, of course).

Thinkin my vote goes here right now. By and large I agree with my fellow IC TSP. Cayvie had an awkward entry, awkward interjection in the Hally/Hyena thing, and instant why me fry me when TSP scumreads her, while pointing only to Hyena (looking like LHF town to me) as a suspect. Pretty level 1 stuff but it is what I have right now.

MP7 is definitely an outlier. Hard to say whether that's due to personality (Fire type, wow!) and lack of time or being mafia. I share Hally's suspicion of the pocket attempt but don't think it worked. Also a very weird response, seeming to not understand TSP is calling her + cayvie as vote candidates? Also she called Hyena "self-resolving" which makes me go hmmmmmmmmm.

Sabie doesn't have much down still. Would appreciate some discussion with her. Sabie, who do you think is mafia and why? What do you think about the use of subtitles in the original Star Wars trilogy, and their absence for R2-D2 and Chewbacca?

Minor Mist tinfoil but mostly feeling good there. Think Hally is town, their state of mind is palpable.

Hyena... is hard to follow for me but in a way that makes me think they are town. The thoughts seem genuine, as the kids say, and unagenda'd. "I was worried I would look w/w with Hally because if Evenstar was in this game and we were w/w Evenstar would bus me" is a heck of a take to manufacture.
I'm more of a trekkie to be honest but they put subtitles for everything like music and random sound effects so it seems silly not to include them.
As far as who is mafia? Ehhh I'm not sure yet. Thoughts are maybe cayvie or hally? I've been reading this game but not fully processing all of it. Plus I kinda tldr'd the random pokemon stuff. I don't know if that's like some kind of inside joke or something I wasn't sure what was going on there.
(I'm just stressed about other stuff not annoyed about anything here in the game. I'm trying. I hope maybe after getting some sleep I can be more productive.)

Oh, I haven't started generating any reads yet. I'm still, like, figuring out people. I like you and Mist though. Probably you a little more since Mist hasn't really done anything AI yet from my perspective (sorry, Mist ;-;).
I seem to remember you getting to action more quickly before. Why are you taking it slowly here?

Also, I think you're right, it must have been that game! Hahaha that's the only game I've been wolf here since my return and it wasn't even my original rand because of the zombie sub-in. Gosh that feels like ages ago, doesn't it?
Yeah, I usually try to get to action as quickly as I can, but a couple of factors in game are stopping me from doing so at the moment. The two main ones are 1. I haven't had a chance to interact with everyone yet, which means I don't have a complete picture of the game yet, and 2. the small size of this game, which is making me feel like I have to be more accurate with my reads early on since we could be in LYLO as soon as tomorrow.

For #1, I feel like the only people I really have thorough interactions with is Hally (who I've had the most interaction with), Cayvie (who I haven't directly interacted with yet), and Mist (who I don't need as much interaction with since I've got a lot of experience with her). Outside my interactions, the only heavy interacting between two people that I know that's happening without rereading the thread is between you and Hally. What I'd like to see is more interactions between people I haven't seen interact yet. Of the people I named above, I'd really like to see you and Mist interact right now, because I don't know how you two as a pair fit into this whole game just yet.

Even if those interactions did occur though, that still leaves Tony, Scirrus, and Sabie, who I've got pretty much nothing on? Wanna know why I'm fencesitting on the people I've made genuine reads on so far? Because I don't know how Tony, Scirrus, and Sabie are going to fit into the whole equation yet. Everyone outside of those three could be town for all I know. Thus, based on the incomplete picture that I've got right now, I'm just taking guesses right now.

How #2 plays into this though is that because of the low number of players and the number of yeets/night kills/vig shots that we all potentially have this game, I feel more nervous about sticking to my guns because I don't think I can afford to be wrong as often as I usually can. In a normal 9+ player game, we at least have two days where we can miss on hitting scum without losing. That's not the case here. I feel like we have to make sure we hit mafia either today, tonight (with a vig shot), or tomorrow. If anything, I think the low number of players makes me more nervous about the game than the flipless mechanic.
Hey Hyena, I'm not sure I understand why you want to see Mist and me specifically, can you elaborate on that?

I appreciate the response, thank you.

For not having a reason to call me scum you're certainly speculating on it quite often. Is there something I can do?

I apologize for my part in that, I'm remembering why I just don't have time for games as much as I enjoy them unfortunately. I think we still can do this though!

So. I signed up as a sub expecting/hoping to go in a little later than day 1, so I could just go into the tank solo, read through the game, and tell y'all who the mafia are. That didn't happen. I'm going to be tightly managing mental health this game and not threadsitting, because 72/24. Or trying not to anyhow. Some of you who have met me in spec chats and games already have an idea of what to expect from me. For others, we are meeting for the first time, hello!

I am an out of place object in the Syndicate/MU forum mafia world, a Samurai Jack-esque castaway out of time who learned the game over a decade ago, took a long break from it and only recently returned to the field. I don't put wolves in boxes. I plinko board my thoughts. I think the phrase "process of elimination" is anathema to town success. I think a low number of large contentful posts is better than a flood of one liners. I find playing town much more stressful than playing scum and am geared to catch wily wolves rather than potato wolves. My process is very different, in many ways the exact opposite, of what seems to have become the norm in this strange new world. Some of you will probably not understand me, and that's fine. Some of you may be tempted to scumread me solely on playstyle, that's a little less fine. Keep an open mind, and we can work together and benefit from our different perspectives.

Fortunately, I'm the innocent child, so we won't really have to worry about that too much. :)

Also and most importantly, I love you all and am thrilled to be playing with you fine folks. My sense of humor is largely inclined towards dry absurdity; please keep in mind that everything I say is a joke, unless it isn't, but also it is. <3

Now I'm gonna read the game. Here's some pokemon fanart!

Hey Ran! Welcome to the game. If you don't like to use POE, how exactly do you most prefer to solve? I'm not sure I got enough of an impression of it here.
