This is like a weirdly chill D1 so it is hard to get actual reads about when we’re just talking about melon ballers.

The Cube vote was wholly a joke and I think it’s clear Grandi is working backwards here.

re: Opop that was me taking a shot in the dark to try and get a reaction or something. I had a vague sense that Opop could fit as scum here since he was happy to continue kitchen banter and not much else. However that’s not exactly unusual from what I remember of his play.

Grandi I’m not sure yet. What do you think of my response Grandi :sun:

You are right, I am working backwards. I definitely wouldn't be pursuing you over it if it wasn't for the dream. First because I enjoy playing with you, so it wouldn't be worth it to go for on a whim, and second because I don't like low content targets d1 because of the lack of info it gives. But for today I am more willing to give credit to dream me because being a dream prophet would be hella cool.

But like let’s talk about Grandi making this into a serious vote.

Does anyone else think this is a serious vote? Cmon Grandi.

No. Even I don't think it was a serious vote. I was saying it was 1 of 2 game related posts you made, and it was only barely a game related post because it was psuedo-joke post stuff.

Did I phrase it poorly?

Grandicap posted:

Two vaguely game related posts. It's arguable in the first one, because it isn't really a town call, it's a response to TM saying they are town. And the second is the lowest of low hanging fruit. The lack of interaction in general feels off for town yuming as well. Even in the non-game related things, it feels stilted.
Am I giving my sleep brains too much benefit of the doubt?
Maybe, but I'm voting there so I can declare myself a prophet of the kitchen1 if I am right.

##vote yuming

1Prophet of the Kitchen is not indicative of a role based claim

No, I don't think so, I said the first one was arguably game related, because it isn't really a town call.

extreme honesty is how i prefer to play town, doing anything else is uncomfortable

also based on the games ive seen so far scum seems to win rather rarely here. sample size of four though

One of the best things about mafia is how we all have different and subjective ideas about what's general good strategy. My view on the thread is radically different from the norm. I see it firstly as the place scum gets their primary information from. 2nd, it is the forum in which to coordinate with other towns, but never forgetting the first thing.

It's only my perspective, but if you're interested in experimenting with mafia playstyle, try it out

Eh fair enough but that was 100% joke post. The Opop vote was left ambiguous to try and get a reaction which I knew could be read as scummy.

It was good bait. Dream bait? lol

I am not reading as Grandi as scum here.

But let’s turn our attention to shark here woof that is not a good look.

Mr Keats is reading very town to me for some reason.

I don’t usually have a good read on him but I think I’ve figured out his town POV enough to try and find it across games.

Like I can imagine Opop as scum but I can imagine p much everyone as scum right now this game has a weird vibe.

The main “case” I’m not on board with is Maer because she seems like she’s sticking her neck out to make some content when there’s little pressure to do so.

##vote yuming this is also a scum post. Town yuming larkishly rolls with the inherent stupidity of D1, playfully engaging with the idiocy of others while offering her own idiocy in turn. This standoffish critique of day 1 play is coming from a scum place of not knowing how to engage.

Didn’t the last game yuming roll scum in she literally had no idea how to post? This feels a sight more comfortable than that

yuming can post as scum she just doesn't like it

however the fact that she voted me immediately, presumably because she didn't like that i was voting her based on grandicap's dream prognostication, feels like a more town-yuming kind of indignation

I thought it was a pretty poor showing considering people were suspicious of like our whole scum team D1, yes.

shark and Cube I am the most suspicious of here I want to hear more especially from Cube.

shark hasn’t really engaged in anything up to this point.

I’m just frustrated not to be able to get any good reads. Though happy to contribute to some actual content and dream weaving ofc.

Then vote me. It means the game feels like it’s just floating down the lazy river. Usually there’s at least a good slap fight or something.
