you shouldnt be trying to control the flow of discussion if people want to talk about dinotown then thats what should be discussed theres no "talk about everyone equally" law or anything and if you try to force that content becomes engineered hence the parallel to engineered wagons
it doesnt help
when i was reading the beginning of the game as an observer, i found this to be a good and reasonable post. however, given that Kat became the main and really only topic of conservation later in D1, i don't really agree with this as it would've been better to talk about other players instead of the Kat tunnel. don't find this to be Bells fault necessarily but i don't agree with this post
you seem self obsessed
like any reasonable mafia player youre slightly more concerned with clout than winning the game, the urge to parade how well you did last game is probably irresistible to you which is understandable because good games tend to stick with you
the "theres something different about you" or "theyre giving me scum vibes" arguments irritate me to no end but ive yet to find that this logic is alignment indicative at all
at best i have a vague town read on you but the more important thing to me is how useful discourse around these aspects have been for reading other slots, like antonio, their suspicion of you feels entirely based on the rest of the threads pressure against you and their inability to put into exact words anything that makes them suspect you doesnt look good to me
you asked me what i thought of you
i shared what i currently think of you
you might think that what i said is more negative than i do but its honestly okay to be proud of ones performance in a game as difficult as mafia you shouldnt feel bad about it, plus all mafia players act like this, its part of the culture
normally i would find this post to be a good response to dino, but im a bit confused as to what they town reads dino for. they thinks that dino is too focused on her own appearance, but doesn't find it to be a sus thing. i know they say that a lot of maf players play up themselves too much but im not sure where this town lean comes from at all. i would except a null if anything
Trundle- town lean
epona- town lean
dinotown- town lean
bell accont- town
mayor leaf- null
seroja- null
biancasbotique- null
voltairenism- town lean
geoni-null
Antonio- scum lean
Teddy345- town lean
Arstotzkhan- scum lean
eponas town lean is the weakest, voltaire and teddy are the strongest and my read of those slots are unlikely to change
noting their only alignment list currently. nothing like really inconsistent now but they don't really go on to update these/state their opinion on nulls except bianca
its a lot of posts and im lazy and have add and if anything important happened itll get brought up again or ill just see it later in isos
we all play and enjoy the game in our own way
i prefer to be in the now talking and sharing ideas with people not reading and then making armchair comments about hmm yes theory and sipping tea
i still don't agree with this as not reading the game just means you have to depend on what others bring up. this means you can't bring up things that have been looked over and affirms a more reactionary play style instead of active scum hunting
so a person that i wolf read ended up being lynched day 1 and had no flip, akin to a janitor effect
someone is suggesting they were a jester lol
probably town honestly im usually wrong
by saying im usually wrong bell seems to downplay their abilities and may quickly blame their incorrect reads on their lack of skill instead of reconsidering the game
i find its best to ignore trying to read into likes/reacts on forums where theyre allowed
its like the same thing as trying to watch online activity to angleshoot whos a wolf
don't agree. tracking activity is a weak way of scum hunting i agree, but i find that knowing what players likes what is more helping in figuring out what the players thoughts are. i would prefer player say "I agree and here's why/no comment" instead of liking a post when its harder to trace that back in an ISO
if youre willing to vote yourself im willing to vote you too on policy
i think this is reasonable. seems like bell is trying to call out the bluff of someone voting for themselves which i think is fine
bianca i have a question for you, which players are you most comfortable in being town
bianca answers but bell doesn't engage with the answer or state what information they got from her saying that. i can see the point to the question but bell doesn't follow up with it
your first mistake was assuming im smart
again, downplaying their ability which i don't like
yes they dont look very good right now, and id like to question them more on it but they dont seem to be here anymore
bell doesn't go on to question bianca more. they did pop in to say they're voting for bianca while she was online, but he doesn't question her/confront her
for the benefit of me lets keep discussion of "last game" on the minimum
reasonable post. our conversation was getting to much about last game so I think it was better we steered away from it
i can see where youre coming from with the manipulation angle ive felt like theres an agenda behind their posts a bit too, and their reads being so full of mafia reads didnt look good either
would you mind quoting some of their posts for me so that i can get a better sense of what you see
bell states they've been sus on mayor (who was null on their last reads list) and instead of bringing to the table why THEY initially thought mayor was off, agreed with what teddy said and asked them to show proof. it comes of as either sheeping or just lazy when you can't go back to confirm your own suspicions and rely on others
