Zendel - not explaining this anymore. I felt their first few posts were off, I answered questions and followed-up. There building my trust with their posts today, but I'm not just going to throw out what I think because everyone disagrees.
Kirbystarship - didn't answer the RQS, it was low hanging fruit, but I wanted to follow-up on it. I didn't expect Kirby to actually give me an answer, so i was really shocked when he did. I think he didn't want to look out of place so he ended up answering it. The only helpful thing so far from them is a scum lean on Zendel, an albeit weaker one even than mine.
Brijade07 so far has been doing an excellent job in their first game, very impressive. I feel like they did their research before this game since they know terminology like "sheep" and their input, while it hasn't been the most useful in scum hunting, seems genuine and organic rather than trying to hide something which is what I would expect from a newbie scum. Have you played forum mafia somewhere else?
Uttumori I thought your RQS was vague, however just like Brijade, your questioning of sensai seems valid although maybe a little unnecessary since it was just a little RQS question. Can't wait for your full reads list

. You also questioned zendel's post, other than that you have been saying who is town, so I'd like to see who you think is actually scum.
Curry one post besides RQS and it was prodding at kirby. Come back to us and if you actually have an actual argument to anything then please vocalize it better than one word
Arztotskan - I want more past their initial reads, because they were extremely fast-paced for a few hours in and I want to see how they follow-up on them.
PandaDarling - I feel like they want to scum read me off something besides the zendel ordeal, hence the exchange last night. Went from that to asking me about what I think about Dolby and Heyden, which seemed like trying to look town-helpful while doing it. Everything thing else she has said has been piggybacking off of others

I agree with Aya... Zendels tone is the same (from last game where he was town) and I scum read him incorrectly, they just come across a but snarky (no offence) which gives off an insincere tone and doesn't sit right to me.
in this quote you say you agree that Zendel is town sounding, but also they seem insincere and doesn't sit right with you... so like which one is it? Then she said something also going off someone else's post about mog's apparent inactivity (which was grasping I will agree) then in her next post rescinded it. So panda is doing a lot right now, but I don't see how its shaping her idea of who is scum and I think she is pursuing people for the wrong reasons. In Paper mario mafia she was all over the place and more aggressive at the start, but at least there was a constant train of thought on each person.
KermitTea - they are first to start scum hunting apple based on their experience with him. Its aggressive and genuine imo. I feel like they are going to be an important one to keep apple, dolby, heyden in check. There notion about people jumping on the Zendel train this quote:
KermitTeam said:
that's a lot of people jumping onto the zendel train now which leaves me inclined to believe chances are he isn't maf
also feels like some advanced analysis which will help us long-term in this game too
Qwerty111, Ashvenn, Yzanda, Sensaigallade - either one or zero posts... I like water rings on my finely varnished wooden tables and I will HAVE NO COASTERS IN THIS HOUSE THANK YOU. One or two of these people will probably end up being scum tbh
Apple2013 - Looking at his town meta, he plays a lot more casual and questioning at the start. He doesn't start getting this sarcastic and non-helpful town attitude until later. He seems more on edge, much different from the start of paper-mario mafia. Since people like linked quotes for comparison here you go.

Hope you have fun at prom. I'm getting town reads from Dan, he seems pretty sincere. However I haven't played with him in quite awhile.
qpple2013 said:
Just first impression I'm getting town reads from Jacob. f11 and Seroja you two are neutral for me. Also, is f11 Chrystina?
apple2013 said:
I'm aware that it is basically useless but I'd still like you to pick one. Who are you reading as someone who might be scum right now? Even if you're just picking from your gut instinct.
apple2013 said:
Interesting that you seem to be covering all of your bases here. You think my questioning of a newer player is scummy? You realize new players can be scum too, right? What makes Corrie more vulnerable?
You are completely twisting my words. I simply asked who you think the scum could be based on gut instinct. Your sudden defense and retaliation is pretty fishy. I'm not even trying to lynch you haha, however with such a strange response you are definitely on my list of suspicions now.
Her RQS sounded the most suspicious to me out of everyone else's who had posted at that point (Post #70 if you want to read). Just because I asked her something first does not mean I can't ask others questions in the future as well. I didn't think I would get an answer from the person I wanted if I just asked a general question, as you can probably agree with me about because so far Corrie seems pretty evasive.
But now Apple seems to have skipped the genuine scum hunting portion from this game and went straight to the being a snide guy that makes bold statements from the start.
apple2013 said:
Fair enough but that doesn't change the fact that the post is overly wordy and is largely filler.
apple2013 said:
Oh that makes a lot of sense. I have always hated Karen's playstyle.
apple2013 said:
I think the toadsworthy post is particularly notable, however I still think Zendel > toadsworthy in terms of scumminess.
apple2013 said:
pretty atypical of you to scumread someone based on activity in the first 7 hours of the game
xCleb - he is playing the same as every game so far, he hates RQS and anyone sussing him on it will raise red flags to me. Go read all games so far with him, it reads almost exactly the same.
Dolby - I feel like your early game is always town organizer, and in past games I've seen that happen. But I don't wanna go on that meta because your posts so far have been very genuine and helpful and we need an organized voice like that, especially myself lol
Ayaya - I disagree with how you have been pressuring me especially, I answered your questions but I feel like you just disagree with my opinion. You haven't played with Zendel, so its hard to get a feel for them just looking back their posts... But your actively scum hunting and being helpful/ purposeful with your posts and it feels very town so far.
heyden - I don't know why people are town-reading Heyden tbh, he says my posts have been contentless yet his contributions haven't really been helpful for anyone to read anyone. I will say he is scum hunting in his own way like I typically see like the "who wants to be lynched" post and I feel like he is always quick to add input about set-ups and roles when he is town, he did in Paper mario and people wanted to scum read him for it. Calling out Cleb's RQS seems dumb too, because cleb is like that every time and you should know it
mogyay - mog's posts are falling a little flat to me.
mogyay said:
to elaborate on my '5 scum reads' which are weak as **** but i wanted to generate some conversation so..
zendal - very defensive, appears to be appealing to emotion, calling someone out unnecessarily just to regard it in the same paragraph
sensai- didn't like how they called out utti three times, made me think they didn't want to call anyone else out and perhaps sheep on sussing utti. also didn't like how they didn't read q 4, highly likely they misread but maybe avoiding the question
kermit - idk i dont like how u sussed trundle when he did say he was busy and the game legit did just start?
qwerty - i randomly picked out someone who hadn't posted just in case there's a maf lurker about
kat - everyone above apart from kermit is relatively inexperienced so i stuck you in, sorry
or for example, you post saying "oh these reads are crap and the question is silly" but then feel the need to defend them anyway. You don't get a pass on being so defensive for no reason just because ily so much.
byngo - like uttumori, I didn't like your RQS being sooooo casual, but your efforts since then have changed how I feel about that first red flag. Your analysis of everything seems genuine and I like your being level-headed in responding to Karen's post about the seidel train.
with that I won't be as involved the rest of the day... I have so much to do. I may or may not vote because I feel doubtful about my reads so far based on feedback. Looking back at my posts they seem less enthusiastic and happy which just isn't me. I honestly think its irl stuff, I'm very stressed with clinical/ work/ living alone/ moving in two weeks and I thinks its affecting me more than I'd care to let on to. I hate to regress to ATE bull****, but I can understand why my posts' tone feels different tbh. I apparently forgot how to be a town because I've only been host and scum the past four games lol. @ me any questions and I will try to respond but I'll probably be on mobile.
- - - Post Merge - - -
all of the above are scum or town leans, its still only day 1, so I'm leaving room for expectations and perspectives to change
