Whats up friendos. I'm excited to play another game after over five years away from America's 5th major sport. Hopefully I'm not too rusty. On the plus side, aside from a select few I don't think I've played with anybody here so I have no pre game biases. On the negative side, I don't know your guys tells so I'm pretty much blind for now. Anything game/style changes I should know about that have happened since I last played?
As thread entrances go, it's not terrible, though it is absent of any real direction.
Tweet seemed to think it was pretty bad (though in a way that others would find scummy, not him), but I don't share that sentiment.
That wouldn't be a very neighborly thing to do now would it?
I assume this is based off of meta? Did you notice Lethal hasn't even posted yet?

What's weird about these hours? Early evening seems pretty normal to me

The quotes for the above are broken - there isn't anything of real note there, and this is all in the early part of the game, but again it must be stressed there is absolutely no direction being given here.
Not really liking Fuji's interactions so far. He seems to throw out some noncommittal thoughts and then immediately backs off them when called out on them. Seems disengenious to me.
I buy Dragon as town, as I recall the whole "I haven't looked at my Role PM" typically leans towards a town read. Then again he could be telling the truth and who fucking knows?
We can say this is his first real post of the game. I don't mind the conclusions, though notably I think he's hedgy when it comes to giving a town read. I will need to check further context to see if anyone mentioned Fuji before this - if not I think he gets a few more town points for providing something original.
SAYING you haven't opened your role PM makes me think town. Why would anyone start a game without reading their role pm? It's asinine...
He is less hedgy here, which is good.

This is pretty interesting, because a stance like this gives me the expectation he would be playing in a way that would allow him to develop strong reads. I have not seen this so far, and the rest of his content doesn't really support it either. From a scum perspective, it could be a good excuse to allow him to not tunnel a player. Obviously if town he's just not active enough.
I think you're right, but I don't think scum makes that joke.
For my liking, there is too much defence of what should be a weak town lean on Dragon. He could simply cite that he's given his opinion and moved on - I actually think it looks good for BPD if Chadwick is scum, because the read quite plausibly just comes from having TMI then.
CP I really was excited to play with you again, but your two posts are raising red flags with me.
This is some pretty weak shade - he doesn't bring up the posts or explain why. He does follow up a little bit later on, which makes me feel a little bit better about it, but I don't get the impression he is really hunting scum with this.
Wow the game really has changed hasn't it?
Mostly fluff, and asinine to boot - of course reads develop over the game, it's how Mafia worked 5 years ago, 10 years ago, 15 years ago...
Fluff again, this time towards CP - I want to nitpick a bit and say it doesn't fel like he's talking to someone he suspects here, but that's mostly conjecture on my part.
let me think, The last game I played was in 2016. The last game I hosted was in 2017.
Fluff, it doesn't add anything to this game.
A low key Whats up post, followed by a just a vote post like a half hour later? I don't know I remember you being a bit more chatty as town.
I think that this is a pretty weak read, it's worded very vaguely too which doesn't help, but I don't feel like any of it is all that worth noting. The first thought that came to mind actually was distancing, but I don't hold a scum read on CP (nor town either, he's just sort of there for me). In any case, this doesn't come across as a genuine thought process, rather just latching onto something he can frame as being a bit scummy. CP, glancing over the next few pages from here, seemed to completely ignore it too.
This was a bad week for this game to start, Reading back now. Someone want to give me the cliff notes on what is going on? I'm starting to construct my interaction chart but I keep getting distracted by Ekko's sig.
Excusing activity. NAI by itself, but he does it a lot.
If someone could help me, is there a search function on this site to search a user's posts in a thread?
This is fine, just including it for completion.
That's what I'm looking for. Thank you sir (and you Ekko)
I am really liking Tat right now, he's about the only person I feel fairly good about town.
I feel better about CP after seeing him elaborate more on his Psychic vote and subsequent posts.
BPD hasn't changed my initial feelings about him.
I'll be basing all my theories around their interactions.
Given that TAT died, this could be interesting. I think his reads are half-baked and shallow, especially for someone who aims to lock them in Day 1, and if I can confirm that CP never followed up with him, I'm surprised he's willing to let his one scum read go so easily.
Hey Alco, been awhile. Wanna work together this game?
I like this in isolation, as it attempts to pull something out of Alco.
Cool, got to wake up to the forum back up. I'm not sure how much time is left, so
Vote Lynch Lethal
I don't think I would very much like to play with you.
Won't hold it against anyone for joining the Lethal wagon, but the reasoning given doesn't seem relevant to me, and the fact he feels the need to add one on raises some alarm bells.
Fluff.
Vote Lynch Psychic
I got a date tonight, so this looks like a good place to park for now.
I can't help but note he has joined both wagons without really needing to, and both times he has either given a reason that isn't relevant for alignment or gives him an excuse to move off if the wind turns, again, none of this resembles to me a player who is looking to play an aggressive early game. Which he would need to for his endgame reads post to stand.
I have to apologize to everyone. Real life events have not allowed me to give this the attention the game deserves. I am currently working through the last day.
Will see how this goes, it's once again another activity excuse.
