Alright all. Game face on. Prepare yourselves. Pre-game, I know but you did promise. =)! Next two post are useless. Just jivin' around with people.

Also that is one long ass haircut for marv. He needs to do work in this game.
Dunno what to think of moosey. Kinda weird how he jumped on my gum read after kel agreed with it.
Also vivax doesnt know what he is talking about. That claim is legit in how on point it is. Like 360 no scope legit.
Askin' round proddin' between people, I like it. Callin' out the 'afk's is kind of bleh.

Unless your point is being he is just making shit up, but from the rest of his post I don't get that sense. Celestial is looking townie for that huge post but why it has KSC as more town than myself I will never know. I don't like moosy right now, his jump on gumdrop felt really opportunistic to me. I still don't like gumdrops entrance at all, and KSC follow up vote was fine for pressure but when mossy jumped on it it just felt wrong to me. Marv has until 24 hours to impress me before my vote goes on him for being lazy which is something town marv wouldn't do in a newbie game. Also @celestial didn't we just play in a game and I claimed VT and we went through the same thing. Not sure why you coat the issue with Moosy here. Just stand up and start shoutin' about it? Curious to why it's opportunistic for Moosy to throw his weight when you dislike the same person.

This is very early game but let us use it as reference. Highlighted the important bits. Gives us a nice timezone. We know when he's 'suppose' to be around. The red highlight is really strange to me. Comin' into a game sayin' "Oh well, just to let you guys know, I don't fix on posted that much." Cut down spam? Mmk, reducing post count etc , useless banter. "Got my new game! I'm going to be even more afkish!" Why give so many outs for un-activity.

With all that out of the way, I would like to say hello again to some, and to welcome newer players. Hello =) If I were to engage you in conversation, would you avoid it to maintain your 'fewer, longer' posts strategy, or will you indulge me? Why did you take a long break from mafia? I will indulge of course when I return to analyse and contribute if the question is still relevant at the time, but will include the response as part of the one or two posts I make at that time. Posting less often but with more content should help to both consolidate my thoughts and continue to take the long view of the game over time. It plays well into my typical starting strategy which relies more heavily process of elimination and goes through many iterations.Regarding my break, I stopped playing because I wasn't having fun. The threads get really long and reading them was tedious. Also, I used to be able to participate conversationally when I would go outside for a cigarette and I no longer smoke, meaning fewer check-ins. Coincidentally quitting cigarettes also kind of changed who I was a little bit, in a way that was real but also inexplicable, and I stopped enjoying some of the things I use to love and vice versa. I did play a few games on another site in the interim but the activity there is borderline (think maybe 200 posts for a day 1) which is really easy to keep up with and was a decent place to utilize my POE strategy without feeling like I couldn't contribute.
This is further concerning! Promising analyse and contribution is fantastic. We'll pick that back up in a bit.
Other part is givin' himself further outs. "1-2 post during that time"? Really? We just let slip the fact that you're busy passin' off validations for posting so little? What reservations are so pressin' that you can't post more than once or twice during a 12 hour spectrum?
More concerning is the whole last half of this post is completely null for all intensive purposes. Personal by-water that looks frighteningly like filler. What better way to bloat your post than filling it with information that can't be used? Even better, you have this handy out of "That guy asked me!"

Heh.
Hmmm, again this "one or two". Then we get a crack at humour I believe? We already have your presumed schedule. You already mentioned that. Quick quips between Obvious and Stoic are curious, to say the least.

Coming in, saying "hello" or whatever is whatever. Many have done it this game (and I'm sure many others). That isn't the issue I have with it.
Here, an example; First couple post->
"Hi! my name is ES, let us have fun!" "I have x opinions for y reasons" "Explaining previous opinions posted for misunderstandings."
vs
"Hi! I want to know who the heck is getting advice from the same dude I am!" refute "No mate, I didn't mean to break x,y,z rules! I'll go ahead and just go away for a while"
Which makes more sense per role for you? A long time ago when I first started playing here, Vivax had quite the silly streak. That went away after a while. Maybe he's just having a bit of silly-mode in the vein of meta-game, this being a game with coaches. In any case, I agree it's not alignment indicative but I appreciate the thought you've given it.

Heh. Maybe I was being optimistic by hoping 'When I return' would occur more than once a day. Why are you so prickly? And sure I'll take a copy of your schedule. Prickly seems to be my natural state. It's also something that happens when people come at me when I'm town. Obviously if you dislike my activity levels you might try to have me lynched for it as is your right to suggest, but I'm not sure why it's a topic of discussion mere hours into the game. You could just wait and see. Promising that I'm going to post X amount of times is quite silly.
Ewwww. This post is just nasty. The nice tidbit givin' us a little bit of insight on Vivax's meta. Useless really, considering most of us have never played with eachother but I don't think this was malicious.
Far more interesting is the fact that, suprise!, "I still can't be bothered to post regularly!". And we get this nice little prod agains't Stoic to offer a window to keep proddin' towards this. Way more bothersome is the highlighted red scrap. When do you want to actively kill discussion, ever? This is a game that wholey relies on discussion. So if you're not talkin', what are you doing?

Can possibly agree with gumdrop lynch but willing to extend benefit of the doubt regarding gumdrop to see what is said. Would not lynch. Gumdrop: waiting for the return of the jedi. Could lynch. Eversince: I understand the confusion with vivax she has. Vivax has seemed to finally switched off his troll mode from speed reading the thread. Thinking that Vivax was intentionally trying to disrupt things by saying nothing is natural for someone not familiar with him. Let's see where Vivax goes from here. Would not lynch. TheShining: AWOL Okay, I guess I'll do a few more this is easy.Kelsiersc: Sheeping Onegu on the gumdrop thing entirely. Gumdrop would definitely be a convenient target for scum in this scenario and sheeping keeps any potential backlash off KSC. Also the Moosy feel for his other scum read is basically a reply to my post regarding activity. Seems picked out at random and the post overall has very little conviction. Potential lynch candidate. Celestial: voting the AWOL guy. Has a big paragraph by my name that could have just said NAI. [association based on unflipped players ahead ![](/mirror/smilies/clown.gif) has KSC, the other guy I find scummy, in his leaning town list. Potential lynch candidate. Fecal: unremarkable at this moment other than the obvious vivax stuff. Probably not a lynch candidate. Marv: being marv, not ready to say anything just yet. Sicklucker: seems pretty happy with himself and situation. Spouting off. I like it. Not a lynch candidate. Stoicism: seemed pretty interested in me, really wanted to interact with me but hasn't shown up since our little scuffle. Seemed like he was trying to have a conversation about nothing with me. Potential lynch candidate. Moosy: actually some good feels, though potential helpful-townie-scummer vibe but not really likely. Not a lynch candidate. So there you go. Scumreads: KSC/Celestial and one of stoic/shining/gumdrop. If I were to vote right now it would be KSC so I will do just that. ##vote KelsierSCOkay that's what I got. Gonna watch some TV now. You're welcome.
This is nice. We all love reads!!! The issues are obvious though [No pun intended!] Onegu read is meta, cheap Gumdrop follow, nothin'. Gumdrop is the easiest read to throw out, nothin'. Myself, glad your sayin' I am playing toward my role. I've been tryin' real hard since the start. Shining is mute.
Oh next part is good. I bolded it in red for my friends. Why spend the whole game sayin' "I don't really plan on contributing.", followed by "Look at how much I can contribute!". Bleh.
Kelsier is an actual general thought? I don't like the Gumdrop tie-in again. Everyone and their rescue dog needs water. A vote on a guy that comes in sayin' "Let us do stuff!" and then proceeds to do jack all is an obvious bet. Why point it out? Cele looks like a toss-out. Fecal is mute. Points out per-diem thoughts that everyone else already stated. Marv is pureply meta read. Nothin'. Sick read is Sick. I dun' like it at all. Yeh friend, I got your back. Yeh, right when I was, not so subtly, mashin' around the bushes with him and Moosy. Stoic read is ok, I guess? Pokin' between eachother and wantin' the other person to be around to further investigate? Convenient read but justifiable in my head. Moosy read is mmk. Mostly matched my own. Minus the fact I tilted the teeter the other direction. Then he claps himself on his back, almost like he's proud of himself, for actually playin' the game. "You're welcome" other game players.

I still don't like gumdrops entrance at all, and KSC follow up vote was fine for pressure but when mossy jumped on it it just felt wrong to me. Marv has until 24 hours to impress me before my vote goes on him for being lazy which is something town marv wouldn't do in a newbie game. Also @celestial didn't we just play in a game and I claimed VT and we went through the same thing. Scum OO tries very hard to be accurate as possible so there's no blowback early. I was in a rush to get around to watching a backlog of TV episodes so one "mistake" which relates to looking at things outside the context of the thread is the opposite of a scum tell for me. In any case, Stoic is off my list for possible candidates for today. I don't like excuses like "I was drunk" like if you can't just play when you're sober then you're mafia covering for your inactivity. KSC vote stays. Agree that Marv's working his way to candidacy today. Hmph, possibly easier to be accurated when you hardly post anything? Watching TV and not playin' the game is higher on the list than the opposite... Top it off with a 'afk' suspicion for possible lynch.
Now we get a 180 on Stoic too, what cuased that?
