I imagine the separate personae would make merk a doublevoter in this scenario

I think that's fairly lazy and also a fairly easy call to make, especially since other people have already said "OMGUS" at me.

The latter statement is a misrepresentation of what I said, and you know that.

They did in the 90's with Ichiro and Griffey Jr.

So what's going on in this game? I was focused on another game today and haven't really checked in here.

Mariners were my scruffy little team in 2011/2012. Nobody could blow a 1 run game with a man on 2nd and 3rd with zero outs in the bottom of the 9th like the M's could.

I still have a soft spot for them in my heart but I haven't followed them since Ichiro left.

MMT and Quid are two townies that seem to be slapfighting IMO.

I don't like TMM's "sum this up for me" post when there has been like 1 page of actual dialogue and mafia play. Still don't think imgay's response was very good.

While I appreciate the vote of confidence I'm admittedly curious what about my posting so far gives you a town read?

Like to me most slapfights are the result of two townies who are so emotionally invested in their point of view that it's obvious to people not involved that they're arguing honestly.

That's sort of how it looks to me. Not the emotionally invested part, but going through your back and forth it seems rather silly. "I will vote you for this, no I'll vote YOU for this!"

What would be a non-faked opinion? Not commenting on it at all? Thinking one of you were scum?

The back and forth seemed silly enough to be called out as two town slapfighting. That opinion can certainly change, but it's day 1. Other people are looking worse.

TT would you be mad if I wanted to vote you out in later on in the game if both of us survive?

I will never be able to read you because of your posting style.

I also looked at Birdstrike's post history in other games because I've never played with him and I'm inclined to say he is also DANGEROUS to keep around because of him being a jokey, one sentence, can't really dive deep into their posts sort of player like TT that you can only gauge from night actions done on them or catching inconsistencies from voting patterns.

Or am I completely alone in this line of thinking where they are decently easy to read for others?

I think voting someone you can't read is viable but it's not a move to be made if you have any strong inclination on who is scum whatsoever.

The reason I'm voting merk here, for example, is that this low effort play d1 seems out of character for his town play. On the other hand, as scum he'll take a bit more time to get moving and sooner abandon lines of thinking or indeed any posting whatsoever.

I usually wouldn't vote him for this, but as it's d1 and in all likelihood we aren't super powered as town, I'm willing to take the gamble.

Yeah true.

I think me and merk always gravitate towards arguing in a thread and actually p sure he did a similar vote without explanation and we yelled at each other a lot one of those games. I don't remember his alignment. For some reason it's not bothering me this game but also I think it's because he continued to post like that so it bugged me.

I was just lynched as town on d1 in my last game for low effort. Literally two weeks ago. I change styles in every game, trying new things. I've said this numerous times.

That has to be fake.
