It's hard to give credibility to damerion when he's barely interacting with the thread.
Despite him being town, he did not play partciularly towny.

HF is absolutely right that a lot of town reads comes from how people interact with the thread, and his reads on damerion are absolutely justified.

It doesn't help to have amazing reads when the way you (don't)interact ruins all your credibility.

I understand that but it's just because I get frustrated that when I post good points on someone and nothing happens and 50% of the game haven't voted it's fucking frustrating and so I revert to berating people to follow me instead because that works 10/10 times.

Which is why I'm surprised you called me mafia (and part of the reason I voted you) for doing what I do as town.

I am a lot nicer to interact with if people actually play the game of mafia and post X, Y, Z points and have a discussion over that and then we reach an agreement or disagreement. Much much more enjoyable. Instead we get someone says X and everyone meanders along afk and there's no rhyme or reason to it other than feels.

Although day 1 was "active" 6 people hadn't voted really close up to deadline so what the fuck is the point? The same happened day 2 or 3 as well where 5 people didn't vote until 30 minutes!!! to deadline. That's 47.5 hours of pissing into the wind.

I was wrong on Damerion, sure, but that's because he did absolutely nothing to interact with me because of habitually not being around and so that enables me to spin my wheels waiting for replies and work myself into a tunnel.

I get that people have things to do and there's "enough" content to read people and make the right decisions but I don't work by reading anymore, I work on interactions which I'm just not getting anymore on this site due to people's real lives getting in the way.

It's just not particularly fun anymore I guess.

I know how you feel, and I feel the same way too.
I don't think your damerion read was bad at all. It just looked worse because conversion flipped mafia.

Also the point where you said that krogan had the best read in the game, but you didn't scum read me was one of the things that made me really think you were mafia.

Right, but it looked like you were goading krogan into starting a push on me when he was sitting on the fence.
In my head the outcomes would either be:

1) He starts a legit train on me and you would jump on later.
2) He would call me scum and later look bad when I flipped town.
3) I would counter push him and I would look bad when he flipped town

It gave you the freedom to start a town vs town conflict without any of the risk.

I'm really sorry damerion if I offended you that way.
I hope you understand it was never meant to be a personal attack on you, it was just the way I was reading the situation in the context of a mafia game.

I hope you will continue to stay and play with us as I appreciate you very much.

@HTS: I'm not sure what ideas you fed into krogans head but he did an excellent job

Sometimes I wish I had a coach as well that could snap me out of my dumb tunnel and just re-evaluate everything.

I feel like even if I'm taking a breather, even if I step away. I'm still webbed down in my stupid tunnel.

Here's a couple things I regret not saying:

1) When holyflare was stating that there was absolutely no way it made sense for him to be mafia, I should've asked him that if it wasn't him, and I know it wasn't me, then it has to be one of oats or grack. What do you think of oats and grack?

2) After oats said that holyflare is easier to lynch than grack or oats, I should've asked holyflare what he thought of that opinion. I should've asked the same question to holyflare as I did to oats.

I keep telling myself that next time.. next time I'm going to be totally objective when evaluating people.
But I just keep falling in the same damn tunnel trap.
Someone please smack me in the head next time so I wake up.
