Going to take me awhile to get caught up but compliments on you Mega for driving the conversation. I'm also going to be looking at who is commenting on the building part and making suggestions. I'm going to be weaving since that is very much my strength.

I promised reads of people hiding behind mechanics, here are the people that I think are doing this: Hunt11 - Their post history is super light, and what few scum hunting posts are made are surface level, but their posts about mechanics are more indepth. They're engaging, just not with the scum hunting part of the game. Alli again - Their only active scum hunting is attempting to call someone out for a "slip" about being good at soothseer building. That and their initial push on Solus that they abandoned without comment.

This effort posting period is to make up for all that True, but this evening has been good detailed poo poo and we are now about a day so it is time to get serious. I wpn't do a lumpen list but here are my reactions, people I am feeling are town. b- , this is enough action from b that I think he is town, it's a meta read but it is my thoughts AA, AA isn't playing stupid or claiming to not understand things or be a pushy organizing everyone self that I've seen him do when he knows more than the average bear, that says town to me. Mega is at least trying to create reads Amni is doing a yeoman's work organizing the spreadsheet People I am questioning, Iron Chef - there is almost nothing there. Ruggan - focused on the combat, no scum hunting Charms - serious lurking, I know, new but still I don't like any of the current vote leaders so let's move someone up. ##vote Iron Chef

Here you go, posting the image usually gets people to respond. I'm not as sold on this one being useful, Steak's point does matter, but getting people to commit to actions in advance is more likely to be useful than asking people after the fact.

MegaZeroX posted:Social Studies 3rd Period - They've mostly hung back and posted mechanical stuff, but they did do a scum read on KB that isn't bad. Will get to that later. Can you explain SS3P's reason for thinking I'm scum? Since you think it wasn't bad, I assume that means you have a solid grasp of it. MegaZeroX posted:KB - For a vet, its weird how little scumhunting they've done. They have posted quite a bit, but most if it is either posting mechanics or defending themselves. Currently their only work at all is me, and hopping onto a bandwagon takes very little effort. Like, if they have all this time to post about mechanics, and do some smarmy sniping, they should have time to make a real case. It feels like they are just trying to pass through the day. It reminds me of playing with scum KB in the Fate Soldiers game last month. This is a stretch. Among other things, I expect you know that it actually takes way more time to properly case then it does to just post off the cuff when you have the time for it. The question I have to ask myself is if you are deliberately doing it as scum, or just not actually thinking things through as town. I know you are fully capable of the latter from our last game. --- Like, I dig the effort you've now put in to make up for your disappearance, regardless of alignment. And it does remind me more of your town self. But you seem to be seeing half the thread as scum at this point, which seems kind of odd. Like you ended up putting some of those in Null, but that doesn't even match what you put in your little blurbs about people. Examples: MegaZeroX posted:tl;dr (lumpen list is in no particular order other than tier) MegaZeroX posted:Bif - She seems okay. If she was just tunneling me, I'd be susp, but she has also put pressure on Hunt, which I think is good. But I'm not really happy that it doesn't look like she's turned her attention anywhere else. She only said "I think you are wrong about Jen" to Binus, and thats about it. The rest are mechanic posts or going on and on about me or whatever. I also don't like how her dropping her Hunt case seemed to just because Dragonatrix hopped on. It feels a bit like bus that she wanted to just set up for whenever she or Hunt died. Overall she is slightly scummy right now IMO. MegaZeroX posted:CCKeane - I know flying under the radar and asking questions is Keane's thing, but they've been strangely active in the mechanics, without really going to deep into player disputes. They got slightly involved with the Solus/AA thing, but it was like only to justify when Solus scumclaimed as town. The rest has been towards me, and I don't know why they've haven't been prodding hunt, binus, Jen X, KB, etc. This is feeling like scum Keane to me. --- I started this post thinking I was going to unvote you. But examining everything, I think this was a drat good scum effort to get people to lay off. I'm keeping my vote here for now. Having said that you posted reads on tons of folks so you were bound to get a few things right even if it was bussing. I like what you pointed out about Ruggan and I'm willing to vote there as well. Iron Chef is also on my short list right now. And not willing to vote these yet, but I have a gut scum read on Keane right now and I have had a couple moments where I was questioning if Bif was scum. Both of them will likely die via scum kill at some point if they are town though, so I consider them low priority cuddles if we don't have a smoking gun.

This is actually pure falsehood, so feeling extra good on my vote. I had a read and vote on the table on you, and had mentioned my suspicion of Bif to her directly. Honestly, for day 1, I'm feeling pretty good about where I'm at activity wise vs my ability to play. On top of that, when you call half the thread scummy, saying it is suspicious that I find some of those people also scummy? Dude. I hope other people can see this too. Wow.

haha a vet I can't get reads on D1 for poo poo because there's nothing to base anything on for me, and most cases that I'm reading seem to be based on "so-and-so acted this way in Mafia XXVII as town" and I don't have any context to agree or disagree. There are mechanics, I can talk about and debate those all day. I can't argue about other people's previous Mafia experience.

My work schedule has changed and now deadline is at a weird time for me. We will stick with it for sure for D1, but going forward I’ve got a few options. 1)Deadlines remain at 8pm PST. Flips will be a bit delayed until I get a second at work, and the precombat battle line up will be ugly phone text until I get home that night. This is what we will be doing for D1. 2) Future deadlines are moved to 4:30pm pst. This will let me post the flip and move to precombat before work. This may be too early for many of you. 3)Future deadlines are later, somewhere between midnight and 2am pst. I get home around 2:30 or 3 and this would let me do flips fairly quickly. Weigh in if you have a preference. I would prefer 1 or 2 myself but 3 is fine if that works better for a lot of you.
