Its a slow day so I thought I'd pick out some posts that pinged me.


First of all, Asiina refers here to herself. Beginning a sentence with the letter I, coincidentally, or not, also signifying the word I. This kind of duplicitous and ambiguous claims making is what scum thrive on.


Did? Did what? What did the letter I do? Or are you referring here to yourself. Well. Which is it?


Ah... now the meaning of this post becomes clear. Either the letter I or Asiina 'did' the call out? But to what end?


The embarrassing truth is revealed. I will do the play. 'I did the call out so I will do the play.' Of course. This is obviously a sentence from a town perspective. Of course, I'm being sarcastic here. The play in question that this unknown 'I' is doing, is a scum play. Can't wait to see who Asiina thinks this "I" person is.


This also struct me as interesting. So I'm breaking it down into it's component parts.


W. A consonant, great start to a word or sentence. Sounds like Wuh when spoken. Nothing inherently duplicitous.


a. A vowel. Or a word. Sounds like Aah or Eh when spoken. Odd number, but I personally think that the number used here by B- is appropriate.


We see here three zs. A consonant. Pronounced Zed but humorously as Zee in American English. Another odd number are used. A rather difficult letter to grasp and evaluate. However, I think this ultimately reads as town so far.


a. A vowel. Sounds like Aah or Eh when spoken. Thirteen instances of the letter. Odd once again. I like B-'s consistency and tone here. I'm feeling a soft odd doctor claim here at this point, as odd has been a running motif of the post. This may be seen as an excessive number of a's in a row, but I think this is to draw attention to the soft claim. Before anyone else counter claims here or says its poor play to draw out the soft claims of town power roles, I just want to say that this academic exercise would be compromised if I made those kinds of omissions in my thinking. In the interests of walking you through my reads in this game I'm going to be honest and plain in my reading.


p. A consonant. Sounds like puh or pff when spoken. Another odd number. There are three ps in a row, concluding B-'s statement. This post has a wonderful internal consistency that I think lends itself to being town.


This one also pinged me, like Asiina's.


Other. The only reason why I could think of DB using this word choice is because DB is intensely self aware of the other personality that DB is forced to hide from us. Scum.


You can see here the burden of being scum has forced DB to alleviate that pressure by hinting to his other nightly 'ritual' of doing the night kill.


The cat, is DB's dark personality, relegated to only 'waking' them up at night. The cat serves no purpose at day, even must be hidden. This metaphor allows DB's consciousness to be cleared while its meaning being lost on the masses. Not, however, I.


Having accomplished the vile act of murder, DB's cat, can however briefly let DB's personality enter the 'sleeping world'. The sleeping world is the world that DB is trying to present to us, the facade of town, while his true scum personality rests.


DB's grim work continues regardless, and the killing will go one until they're stopped or have murdered everybody else. Anway.

Ahn Wae.

What does it mean? Another symptom of DB's fractured personality coming to surface? Or breadcrumbing for some other nefarious purpose? Please respond to me DB on my Asiina case.

Reading asiinas post history I am not a fan. It's a lot of saying basically nothing.

Hal is always really hard for me to read but they are commenting on things and playing and he seems earnest.

Toal is toal, they always seem pretty scummy by default to me.

I haven't played much actual mafia with pera so I don't really have any real meta to go off of and her posting seems genuine after reading through it and ignoring all the spam to change the page. Leaning a bit more town now.

Seems like DB's okay for now, he hasn't done anything overtly scummy.

flerp is being normal flerp imo.

All in all I'd rather ##vote asiina I feel like her posting is mostly just white noise and weak cases. The push to lunch flerp is really weak and not a great case at all.

I find myself in a situation again where deadline is imminent and nothing much is going on and votes have piled up on someone. I feel like this is a bad choice again but it gives us more information than no lynching.

I will vote flerp if I have to but I'd prefer asiina.

For those not following along, the setup is 1 odd night doctor, 1 even night cop, 5 VT, 2 goons.

We've had 4 VT flip which means the 2 power roles, 2 scum, and 1 VT are left.

Scum you needed to counterclaim the doctor, cop, or VT (each a different one) but CPig investigated me as the real VT.

CPig - cop
pera - ??? (doc)
Asiina - VT (investigated town)
Toal - VT (actually scum)
Hal - VT (actually scum)

Hal and toal scum wrap it up folks.

Lol brought down by not reading.
