.......oh.......I get it.......clever
scotty + roxy + alison also

1/5 at best imo
I'm mostly concerned with his sudden flip on Pyxxy with the reasoning to solve the wagons.

We killed Pyxxy's CW d1 and it flipped wolf so I don't get why he added Pyxxy to his worldview.

I don't think it's impossible for us to have W/W wagons d1 but I don't think it's likely from how Pyxxy/Porscha interacted with each other.
rondo is a crackhead like me and i also had the thought to resolve pyxxy so i forgive him for it. i changed my mind after talking with you and j, but he hasn't read/talked. i dont think its an unlikely stance for town!rondo to take, if he is wolf i don't think he's flailing, i think he would be playing a standard wolf game of emulating his town game. which right now is what i feel like he's doing

But erg this is such a well reasoned explanation. Shows open mindedness.

Dammit tutuu

u have no towny stuff going for u, u need to play more or u die

i mean i can understand the towny motivation behind u playing like this, i can see u being town, but we just need to up the bar a little bit

just today in the last hour and a half since SoD it feels like there's been more productive posts than the entire D1 combined

so the bar is going up

I think you just found the fruit that is rondo and have chosen to pick him off the bottom of the tree while licking your lips

You really think we had a wolf/wolf wagon on D1?
Pretty decisive about that.

But eh I think the one liner effort you’re putting in this game comes from a villager perspective.

Townreads as of now:
Camilla
Rondo
Prince
Neon

Kind of having mixed thoughts about this vote.

The good side of it is that it's kind of pointless for Roxy to vote here being that they had Pyxxy as a good alternative due to tutuu swapping to him unless we got w/w wagons d1.

Thing is by coloring Porscha red they basically already locked her reads in and with Porscha giving up that kind of meant that they had to vote her. End vote also felt fairly late-ish which kind of supports my bussing theory.

Verrrrrrry possible

Currently backreading/ on page 12

I like Prince’s Re entrance
I really like Camilla’s entrance

Camilla is my top town read

Getting weird vibes from tutuu. Which is surprising because tutuu is doing nothing wolfy D1 imo, and now so far today, except that little bit where she was overexplaining her latent suspicion for Porscha.

Scotty wrote: ↑Mon May 22, 2023 9:59 pm Odds any of zenon/Alison/Seanzie/tutuu are mafia?

Going back to this seemingly random grouping…I lean at least 1 is mafia.

I’d currently lean from town to mafia | tutuu > zenon > Seanzie > Alison

But am reluctant to point fingers in this grouping because they’re contributory. I just can’t figure out if Alison has an agenda or is coming from a place of investigative journalism

Rondo is an anomaly. His team forming posts are without context, but him throwing me in a mafia team with Roxy is on one hand very silly, but also I can see a perspective where I have been hedgy to a point of not quite nailing her, which would be quite teammate compatible

All this to say, I can see a perspective where his teammate lists, while both including me, looks organic. I’ll townread him for it

I like the catch up, Camilla. Keep ‘em comin

Curious as to who your self imposed sheep read will be.

What do you make of Porscha suggesting that you sheep her?

Agreeing here as when wolves shitposts they tend to struggle to weave between serious/not serious content without sounding awkward.
Is that true? I find that in a good handful of games I’ve randed vanilla town, I have been perceived as clunky and awkward with some of my content, almost cringey too. My sense of humor doesn’t always jive with people, which is fine, but I feel like I get those comments more when I’m town
Do you alternate between shitposting/serious content as a wolf or do you just stick to one?

Wolves when doing the above tend to sound more clunky/artificial than villas. I’m vibing with Alison’s thoughts being that Tutuu’s weaving between these two modes in a fairly organic manner.

In context to tutuu, I agree that the actual content is sprinkled in enough to seem organic. I don’t currently view them as wolf on the Richter scale

In regards to me shitposting, my timing depends on if I’d had my morning coffee or Chipotle for dinner. But I can’t shitpost for too long or I’ll get hemorrhoids

So Porscha is either REALLY town or REALLY not town. There is no inbetween.

God my logic is POPPING today

thanks for the angleshoot
This isn’t an angleshoot, this is an etiquette thing.

Whether or not Roxy is saying this genuinely or if she knows Prince is town and is choosing to take the offensive to protect him is another thing
Real talk though

I think the perception that voting new players is disrespectful is a sign of an anti-fun underlying perception

And that is the perception that getting chopped is disrespectful

If u think chopping a new player will make them feel disrespected, then u must also feel disrespected/unhappy when u get chopped yourself

U must also feel guilty that youre disrespecting your friends by chopping them

That doesnt sound like a fun way to play mafia to me. Sounds anxiety-inducing. Perceiving chopping as not that big of a deal, not that dramatic, sounds to me like a smoother experience
Well I tend to agree with Roxy here if she’s not wolf using this as a brigadier moment.

My first forum mafia game I was elimmed D1 and I didn’t really know what was going on. And then I just had to watch the rest of the game in silence.

I never played another game there. Didn’t feel welcome.

Granted, it sounds like Prince isn’t new, but I know the feeling of being killed immediately without getting my feet wet, so I think it’s a pretty standard courtesy to let him do that.

Plus, like..,he only has 1 post. We can do better than that
In that case i think u also feel unhappy even here on the syndicate after all these years when you get chopped

Well. Im not going anywhere with that, just a neutral observation. Science moment. Proceed everyone
Well, no. I think you’re missing the point- coming into a new community it just seems inherently rude to vote out someone for basically no reason.
I mean, it’s a game, and that can be your prerogative because the goal is to win, but in this case, even if Prince is bad, there’s more content to be had from him and 2 other partners to find

To clarify: on D1

Heh maybe you’re just good
Oh I'm not good. I'm very very trash.

And I like playing town more and I'm more comfy with it but like... I'm not uncomfortable as wolf

Real talk

You’re not trash

Point A- you just had a game go to F3 in which you successfully Sussed out the wolf.
Point B- the effort you put into games is not to be undermined. Effort = production.
Point C- your reads not always being accurate is to be expected. No one is always accurate. It’s a game of deception and people are always changing or attempting to change the way they play or approach the game.
Point D- you wouldn’t be accepted in my dumpster

No what I'm saying is that it can't be AI because he was calling me wolf every game regardless of his alignment for months now so the flip up is different irregardless of his alignment.

So Sean is known to make flippant calls of ‘wolf/town’ based on nothing as *both* alignments?

Hi Roxy.

And I’m suspicious of you for popping in to comment on thread state and only offer that we shouldn’t be voting a newbie.

I'm glad my little guy is okay but the NERVE of some people. Please do not approach another clown owner on the street with your clown without asking first and checking to make sure it is okay!!! Ugh!!

Unless my clown is tutuu, in which case, please approach at any and all costs to pet her. She needs as much validation and attention as possible. You may also honk her nose, which will prompt her to wag her tell and make a beeping noise at you. The pitch of the beep will let you know how much she likes you! The higher the pitch of the beep, the more she likes you! If you're lucky, she might even perform some of the tricks I taught her, just for you. But if tutuu doesn't like you, her beeps will be deep pitched and she will growl threateningly. Don't worry, she doesn't bite; she just likes to let everyone know how she feels about them. Please back off my clown if she growls, despite her tail wagging due to the attention given. If my clown starts performing tricks for you, you are contractually obligated to watch all of them and applaud her and give her treats afterwards. I will hold you at gunpoint to ensure you treat my clown with the respect she deserves.

well there's 23.1% chance for every player individually to be mafia

if u take a group of 4 names, there's a (1 - 0.23) * (1 - 0.23) * (1 - 0.23) * (1 - 0.23) chance for all 4 to be town at the same time

which is 35%

so 65% chance to not be all town
