im cool w pressure on the slot and am not a fan of the opening either (saying you'll sheep people is not helping us progress the game at all), but it feels very aligned with what aligningstars would do at least, im not sure about pcb's posts and would have to go back Recent posts have given some content tho, i dont know what to think yet but am curious what you think of these posts (links instead of quotes to save space) ps-mafia.proboards.com/post/119643/threadps-mafia.proboards.com/post/119628/threadps-mafia.proboards.com/post/119628/threadAt the very least you can't say they're scared of being judged, but I don't think scum!as would be scared either What I think Aligning is trying to do is put rhoguh what he thinks his reads are and trying to be as coherent as possible while trying to give their thoughts. ngl "as coherent as possible" must be a low bar then, would def be a good exercise to as to put some more structure into their posts |

btw I've finished reading up, I liked Grace's entrance personally. Felt like a good balance between having fun and pushing the game forwards (i.e. this post or this post, contrast with Litt's posts in how it poses a much clearer direction, but also posts like this and this, which don't necessarily say that much, but i do think throwing the opinions out there is helping us track their read progression and helps highlight things for discussion) + didn't have any posts I dislike yet However, I'm wary of the fact that I'm also a huge fan of Schia's playstyle usually and might be blinded by that |

Despite the account's message count I can see no effort made to actually play the game so far and would like to see them actually make an attempt at contribute. I agree they do feel easy to misrepresent, but I'm hoping pressure on the slot will give us more to go off of in that regard, otherwise it feels like a volatile slot imo -C7 im cool w pressure on the slot and am not a fan of the opening either (saying you'll sheep people is not helping us progress the game at all), but it feels very aligned with what aligningstars would do at least, im not sure about pcb's posts and would have to go back Recent posts have given some content tho, i dont know what to think yet but am curious what you think of these posts (links instead of quotes to save space) ps-mafia.proboards.com/post/119643/threadps-mafia.proboards.com/post/119628/threadps-mafia.proboards.com/post/119628/threadAt the very least you can't say they're scared of being judged, but I don't think scum!as would be scared either You posted the second link twice btw, assuming there was supposed to be a third link. As for the first post I honestly find it kind of ironic. The post from Astaroth that its quoting is one of their few posts that I actually felt had substance to it, so calling it nai is kind of funny to me. Honestly the post I find more nai is the one where they call it nai, it feels like an attempt to contribute but it really doesn't lead us anywhere. As for the second post I'd typically agree with their opening statement "tbh i find it hard to make reads early d1," but the follow up is what confuses me tbh. They say its hard to make reads d1 because its too much thinking, instead of attributing it to something like a lack of content. I feel like d1 should almost require less thinking since there's less content you have to backread or remember. What this post is saying to me is that d1 is difficult for them because they have to think, as in no one has given up a solid reads for them to just follow along with. The post also feels like an easy way to deflect them from actually having to contribute until a later point where, once again, there will likely be established reads or pressure that they could just use. I kinda disagree with your point that they're not scared to be judged because that's exactly how the second post reads to me. |

To be direct, I found your partner's entrance immediately before signing off to come across as underwhelming and ever so slightly as if they felt the need to make an early appearance I don't wish to expulse anyone to the Death Note without several offenses to land them there, so of course this is no big deal for now, and largely NAI It'd be honorable for you to read up on what has been posted so far and share your thoughts with us I actually had already caught up before entering chat. Unfortunately the bulk of what I felt held the most value came in the last few pages and I've been getting tired as I read through, so its something I'd like to revisit tomorrow after some rest so I can form some actual conclusions off of it. As for anything before the last 3ish pages; I've largely enjoyed PhoenixWrong's posting so far, although a good chunk of it was just "towny" or "wolfy," I liked their engagement when prompted by others to either elaborate or questioned on something more substantial. It felt like they were pretty direct with their reasoning and got their point across, it generally just feels like they're saying things that they believe to be true and that rings towny to me at least for now. As for why I voted SpaghettySyndicate, I honestly don't think I've seen a single message from them that has been of any real value aside from their last post, which didn't come until page 7. I also understand most of their reads being off of vibes at the current time and won't fault them for that, even though I believe they could have read something of value by that point. It did ping me as strange that they opened the readlist as being off of vibes but then felt the need to reiterate it again when scum reading Clouds/Camryn in the same list. I'm neutral on Astaroth rn but would like to make note that it feels like they've just been saying things. It feels like they've been contributing the bare minimum so far, I'll again give this a pass given how early the game still is and I can actually see where their posts are coming from even if they aren't really substantial. Mostly saying this because I would like to see more from this slot in the once the game kicks up more and believe they're capable of giving more as well. Searing Grace is neutral for me rn as well, though I'm sure there's been enough content from them for me to find something to latch onto. Planning to revisit this slot specifically after rest. Everyone else I'm neutral on without any real strong opinions to think of. -C7 i like this post (and want to let yall know so im not just pressing like) i agreed w xxdarknessxx that erry's entry was just in and out of the thread which isnt great (tho i wont hold it against anyone yet bc we just started lmao, life does exist!), but this post is a huge contrast to that imo |

Mentioned it already in my reply to Darkness, but I feel neutral towards the slot rn. I do believe there's enough to go off of to form some read, I'm just too tired and would prefer to backread that slot tomorrow after I've slept |

Snaq posts are like music to my ears It's like Gerard Way giving me a personalized concert Ngl hearing this does mean a lot, i've not played forums since popcorn (and even there i was a sub). I'm usually afraid of my reads being wrong and being scared so I'm trying to push through that this time (helps that it's a hydra so i can always discuss the game w Alex if I'm feeling unsure about my reads) now dont have this be a pocket attempt - back to gamestate tho, i did like the fact that despite you liking my posts, that you didn't rush to put my slot into TRs, the read progression mentioned seemed very fair |

re: snek read bolded text
What about it? Ftr it refers to the following different post (from clouds, not cam), specifically the part highlighted in red Townreads- commanderations Townleans- phoenixwrong - pqslays - SpaghettySyndicate ๐ฏ๐๐๐๐ ๐น๐๐๐ - No one... yet This is my list, cam's may look different but we're agreed in some places pqslays I'm feeling much better about after reading their posts in isolation, mixed about them earlier but turning the corner hard For phoenixwrong, the way they flipped their read on the Aligining slot to a townread after the initial sus seems pretty anti-narrative and had progression I could mostly trace. Similar thoughts with their inverted read progression on the Searing Grace slot. I like what I've seen from them so far except them including "obligatory townslip" in that post, that irks me for obvious reasons Heart wants to like AlexSnaq, because I liked Snaq's post inching me away from the pqslays vote for a reason that seemed legitimate and would be fairly counterproductive for scum unless they were partnered with their slot... but I highly doubt that a partner is defending a teammate of theirs so openly like that early on, so I don't expect them to be teamed with the pqslays slot at all. The flipside is that I have never played a forum game with Snaq before and have no prior experience to know if this is typical of them to do as scum, so for now, I'm just going to listen to and consider his insights without worrying too much about his alignment because it's all been helpful so far
- Clouds Do you disagree with the apprehensive attitude? I think it is a townie progression (because the points make sense to me, and personally I always tend to take my sod1 reads lightly); do you think it reads like scum keeping the option open to change their read on me? |

That's fine Why do you think this one in specific isn't townie. I'll acknowledge that Clouds can fake reads. I want to read up on smtn I noticed later when I don't have meetings, but you're not telling me why you think it's not a townie progression. I feel like in this situation it was easier for Clouds to just TR me rather than evaluate it to past experiences |

I wanted to look into PhoenixWrong a bit. Like with Grace, they seem relaxed and I like them indicating their gut feelings 'bout posts to keep things rolling. Esp coming back on previous statements like this post is something i quite like Phoenix, if you could elaborate on this post tho, I don't really get what you're saying wrt Spaghetti (unless it's fully a joke but it did read as a minor hunch) obligatory townslip that i just realized this is multiball and that makes it easier for scum to blend in and maybe that does incriminate spaghetti in my totally not fake confidence solve right now Side note: I did like commanderation's entrance overall, but am surprised just how strong people seem to feel about them being town. Especially a post like the following feels quite superficial, as it did not reflect on whether the "one worders" could be useful (+ I'm not sure what (important) questions they dodged but maybe I'm failing at reading up) That's not a good reason to vote someone even if we are only an hour in. -pq the annoying part was dodging questions and continuing the "town" "wolf" one worders |

Fwiw, it probably goes without saying that I do not like iavh's entrance (as it seems like they're refusing to actually explain why they feel a certain way), but I also feel like my analysis is quite biased (at least while they don't do anything but saying my interactions w/ camryn he doesn't like), so if someone else wants to take a look at it I'd appreciate it
Maybe it's iavh being iavh, but the aggression feels AI

I'm not opposed to an astaroth vote as it stands but we should give time for a) Litt to do Actual Things and b) Spiderz entrance I think this is a strange post, bc I don't think anyone was suggesting/acting as if we shouldn't do those things (and they feel fairly obvious ngl) |

Anyways Iโll make my solid entrance now because I have zero excuse not to.
This is my first forum game, so it definitely caught me off guard with posts about solid vote options when (in my opinion) itโs super early in the mornin and nobodyโs reasonably fuckin awake. All that stated, I took a bit of time to read, and I thinkkkk weโre going the wrong away about this.
I see that thereโs a lot of posts about โthis person town because xxxโ and YES make those readsโฆ but I donโt think sharing those reads is a good idea. With multiple noms, I could see factions going for universally tred players, which obviously fucking sucks for us. Iโm unsure how we can make those reads without completely screwing ourselves, but maybe we look at like.. groups of 3 or smth and then try to scumhunt from there? (Going to suggest we do it from sign up sheet, for fairness)
Now, Iโve also only been awake 20 minutes and Iโm probably not cooking with this? But Iโm just sharing out here.
