Silver is pretty easy on the eyes. His strong jawline asking questions that might well go to the root of things. We'll just have to see what he does with them.
Ruma is calling people pretty without having seen their faces, but perhaps his tastes lie elsewhere.
Can you wait until toMorrow to spew me town? I need to not get shot N1 and I just looked at the player list. Thx. @shadow
Oh dang it! I just realized I should have responded to silver with an obi wan “hello there”
/missed opportunities
I feel like I want to ask Ruma why exactly he liked Cantrip’s entrance, and then he’ll never answer and I’ll get frustrated, so I’m just not gonna.
Silver, when was the last game we played together (that you finished) and have you actually had a real scum game yet? I feel like you have but I can’t remember and I don’t feel like digging.
No, I said "Hello there!", you're supposed to say "General Kenobi!".
I have not "properly" rolled wolf yet but I did replace into two wolf slots if you'd like a gander at those. I ~think~ the last time we played together without me having to replace out was Four Horsemen?
If you mean clog the thread with a bunch of posts, can't guarantee it won't happen buuuut I can promise most of them will be at least tangentially related to the game. I've had an itch for mafia and I can't stay out of the thread. @Cantripmancer
That said...I'm going to go ahead and tinfoil conspiracy state that something feels weird about Tom and Shadow's interactions so far. Which is weird because I like their posts individually; they're funny and solidly toned, and feel "right", but it also feels a little bit like they're tryharding, maybe forcing interactions? Don't know. Need more, I guess.
Unvote for now.
Why unvote your RVS vote here, especially if you're tinfoiling him? @Will
Greetings. I'm probably going to be the least funny person here. I don't use to be fun at parties, you know
But since this is not a party as we thought... \vote Cantripmancer
Reason: [insert a not good reason here].
Actually, Mr Cantrip is quite smart, and smart people are dangerous
Probably unvoting later, who knows. I like Cantrip. I actually have no ideia what's going on
How much, if any, experience do you have playing the game of Mafia? Skype, One Night Ultimate Werewolf, the Resistance, etc. count.
For not doing tours in Stuttgart! (Honestly though, trying to convince my wife to road trip to Belgium/Bruges. Anything that would help is much obliged.)
@Cantrip, how do you think I felt? I didn't even start with a faction.
@tom, is your character some sort of Marilyn Monroe type? Because I am pretty sure that's the only way I will read it after your "big brute" comment lol
@Silver, please don't do what Last did in GoT.
@GF, why do you think people haven't been reading you as towny lately?
I like this slot, not sure about the GF question though. I still don't think he should have been ynched in GOT, what do I know though i was scum :P.
Why say that you don't have an answer to a question directed at Grape (that he had already answered at this point)?
@Shin: read the rvs of any other recent game with me and Lngr and you know why
@Lngr: My next days are Wurzburg - Rothenburg/Schweinfurt - Bamberg - Nuremberg.
If you’re free and willing to drive, shoot me a pm
Oh then thats why, i normally just ignore RVS for the most part.
RVS is one of the most important parts of the game, though, because it's where wolves are trying to enter the thread, blend in, and distance from their partners the most. Why do you ignore it?
Oh right, also Shinichi's entrance is pretty. Like it felt to me like Cantrip was making an off the cuff joke and Shinichi was like "I feel like you thought a lot about that reply" like it was super cereal or something.
And then Cantrip's reply was like "Oh yes, I did think about it a lot" which just made me ???
@Silver: why are you asking Shinichi to make sense?
Well it's less about him making sense and more about trying to get inside his head.
Also also I thought maybe Cantrip had recently heard of the "interesting" tell and was maybe excited to use it but if he's known about it for a while it's less interesting.
@GF, because I used to townread you quite frequently and... I scumread you pretty hard last game, and you were scumread in DitF. Just trying to wonder why you feel so different than normal. I don't think I've seen you as scum in awhile, but it's probably not alignment-indicative. I was just weirded out by GoT and I'm not quite sure how to read you now.

What about grape feels off this game, sweetie?
It's moreso he's felt different the last few games I've been in with him, than this game specifically. I used to feel like I had a good read on GF, but I heavily scumread him in GoT and he would've been lynched if not for the N0 cop check from KJ in DitF, where he was heavily scumread before (and arguably after).
As you converse of the state of your situation, a clock emits a series of chirps from the Foyer.One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine. Nine o'clock. It's not that late yet.
But still, you opt to tally the votes.
KoolKoal: Feel free to take this with a grain of salt since self meta isn't particularly helpful, but I think I get scumread mostly for style over substance, but also for a certain lack of substance over style. It's not so much what I AM posting most of the time (though sometimes that can seem bad) but what I'm NOT posting. I've been told I come to non-obvious conclusions a lot, so when I post, quite a bit of the time there's jumps in logic that people can't follow and they think that's scummy. I get that accusation about a lot of questions I ask specifically. People call them "busy work" when the questions are legit etc.
As far as things to ignore, I can't think of anything. I would suggest you focus less on what I'm doing and more on how I'm doing it. That's probably more likely to be accurate. Like I've just said, what I do tends to come off a little weird, but if you look for how I do it, mindset comes into play and maybe you figure out something useful.
@Cantrip
I’m not fully caught up yet so if this has been mentioned, I’ll get there.

Pretty much outposted everyone else at a ratio of 10 to 1 on Day one. It made rereading D1 a huge chore.
@Shin, is that a real vote on Tom?
Did it sound like a real vote?
No, but given that you got to endgame in GoT due to everyone saying, "It's Shin, who knows, lol", I figure I might want to pay more attention to you this game.
Think lngrr's wooing of grape is a bit off. No waiting to see what grape showed up to *this* game, just overarching trend data basically. Which is a perfectly good way to woo IF you wait and see a bit but thats not the case here.

This cuts to the heart of it. If I didn't know he wasn't my buddy I'd say it looked like a safe way to reach out to a buddy for some early theater.
I think Grape contradicting me going off of his own memory is slightly villagery? Wolf!Grape probably reads the thread and checks beforehand so he isn't "wrong".
Tom basically nails my feelings about lngs question to grape; it is premature and awkward.
@Lng: what do you feel like you got from that question to Grape?
Will’s entrance has a low level feeling of “hello fellow RVSers, I will RVS with you, look at me RVS”.
Probably could dig into a few other things but it’s Sunday and I don’t feel like it.
Too much sheeping other people Shadow. Specifically tom, are you trying to pocket him?
Say some stuff about me. I'm the top poster and people are kind of commenting around me instead of to me, it feels like. they're saying words about words that I said but not really reading into them to try to divine my alignment.
Phone posting too slow lol. Yes I replaced in to Ghostbusters and was almost lynched the day before lylo but Highroller didn't post the hammer in time, then we mislunched a villager.
I actually think my posting in Unreliable Cops was a bit better but your mileage may vary.

I’m loving Tom’s RP here, it means nothing to me as far as alignment, but damn me I’m enjoying it.
Hey, Tubba, could you pick a player, any player at all, and give me like. 1-2 sentences on their entrance and how you felt about it?
Thanks in advance.
Will-98’s entrance seems a little wooden. Somebody said something along the lines of “hello fellow RVS’ers” and I get that but there was also some over explanation. Not sure how I feel about it, but I noticed it.
@Silver did you get that eve was an unfortunate autocorrect from RVS? That "fix" slide right past me... Anyway I'm not sure my laziness should be seen as AI.
Shin insisting he ignores RVS jokes while engaging on my Cantrip RVS is a thing. Probably not a relevant one though.
I for one am happy tom is roleplaying. It makes him easier to read.
Will-98’s entrance seems a little wooden. Somebody said something along the lines of “hello fellow RVS’ers” and I get that but there was also some over explanation. Not sure how I feel about it, but I noticed it.
I mean this entirely sincerely, with no snark whatsoever. But I think this was mentioned already, do you have any hot takes about Will or someone else that no one else caught?
@Silver did you get that eve was an unfortunate autocorrect from RVS? That "fix" slide right past me... Anyway I'm not sure my laziness should be seen as AI.
I did, yes. Would you say you're not more likely to read the entire thread before posting as a wolf then?
Will’s entrance has a low level feeling of “hello fellow RVSers, I will RVS with you, look at me RVS”.
You forgot the
It made my entrance less suspicious, didn't it?
Have I already said I like using ?
Maybe I’m unable to properly read things due to alcohol consumption, but this response is actually hilarious and off the cuff enough that I’m less worried about will.
Ruma you’re rude. But the feeling is mutual at least.

I feel like ignoring you due to your consistent ending up being scum, is different from 'I dislike this person'. So, no, the feeling is not mutual. You find me easy as **** to read.

I guess I could have asked OOG, but I was pretty thrown by how GF approached D1 in GoT.
Can you read him well since he changed his style up?
@Shadow, um, I dont know? Just kinda asking to get conversation going. My question wasnt related to this game alone.

I...what? you aren’t going to read/respond to me because I’ve rolled scum frequently in the past? That’s some bull crap.
Yes though, I do find you easy to read when you’re scum.
Hello all, no thoughts yet as I just got back from a little road trip with the girlfriend, but wanted to let you all know I am alive and well.
I went from losing a game as town in the most painful fashion to losing a game as scum in the least painful fashion, well that's something I suppose...
Hi Rhand and Tom. I suppose I will get to see first hand if I can read Shinichi legitimately.

Silver I probably am slightly more likely to read the whole in game thread as scum but less likely to read other threads. Different alignments for different types of laziness I guess.
And yeah it's been a stance of mine for a while that gimmicks by Tom where he isn't 100% unintelligible are easier to read than Tom playing it straight. This may prove to have been a bad theory in the future but as of now I stand by it.
Bouncing around a bit Will can be a town lean for now. No read on the shadow/Ruma interaction. I want to town read Silver but I can't actually remember the last time I was in a game with him so I don't have anything to work from.

We were town in Arkham together, I made like a level 7 read that you were town because of the way you pushed someone really early. I believe your exact words were "that's a really cool read."
My read here is like level 2 and not anything I'd hang my hat on forever of course but it's good enough for now. Cause like, if you're a wolf you probably would have read the thread and known you were contradicting me after I just said I looked it up and uh. That's a thing that a tom or someone might do but you don't really strike me as the type.
Oh wait, Shadow was in Arkham too wasn't he? That was the last big game I played here so if he was that was more recent than Four Horsemen.
