Maybe. You're probably right it's not that strong an argument.
And yeah null on you because if you were mafia, you would have an extremely strong incentive to try and mimic your past town play and post alot.

No Pand, that actually makes lots of sense and makes me feel better about you!
While your here have thoughts on everyone else? How about my Conv point?

Conf is blah but I think Grack was way worse. Grack actually played an extremely strong two last town games, but all he has done this game is

AMA Weren't you one of the people who got mad at me and scumread me for doing the same thing a few games ago? Never mind I'm confusing you with someone else. Carry on  I think Eversince is town, discuss? Why do you think I'm town? Your posts feel so carefree and relaxed and comfortable, which is the complete opposite of your last game as mafia, which felt very rigid and forced. Plus, instead of relying on losing the wifi hotspot and the pre-game excuse, you seem to have redoubled your efforts to engage in the game and be involved. To me that makes a decent townread  I don’t like this post. ick Care to say why? ICK. (sorry) Do a +1

I don't really trust her yet, but it seemed like Rayn had a really confident read on her in the last game, so I'd be interested to hear his take. Make this weak-ass post. I think he's smart enough to know that a 4 year gap is enough to make any meta reads useless. I also think the Rayn mention is weak.
There's also absolutely no care-free nature or light posting which all his last games have had. It's not particuarly alignment indicative since in his last mafia game he was trolling too. But it's weird.
Conf meanwhile is usually semi-inactive and doesn't post much. One "bleh" post isn't that significant.

I'm going off memory (not reliable). Any mafia would want to try to change thread sentiment. Grack did nothing.. Even on your example.. if he bussed his whole team he still did something. Was my point. t!Grack doesn't care m!Grack does something (if that's true he just killed his whole team)! What game is it though? I'll filter him to try to see.

Assuming Grack is mafia where is he taking that Pand? Just throwing shadows? I'll agree he's been useless but last game was the same. Most I've played with him he's been in-active then picks up and is semi useful.

Trfels, what do you think about the fact that ES's last mafia game was 4 years ago and she could be playing extremely differently than her previous game? I know my first mafia game this year was completely different than how I used to play mafia back in 2013. Sorry, but what does the bolded section have in relevance to this? It was poorly worded, but what it meant was "after Day 1 when Eversince was obviously town/endgame when alignments were revealed".
To answer your question, her mafia game is different from her town play in a way that is difficult to replicate. Some people, a lot of people really, have trouble posting as mafia and have trouble fitting in. As a result, their posts feel more dry and formal, and socially they are more withdrawn; they focus on reads and pushes without truly getting involved or engaging much. It's not as simple as posting more, it's learning to socially engage and interact in a meaningful and relaxed way as mafia, which is really hard to learn and is unlikely to randomly change, even over time (especially without practice). Am I making sense?

Hi everyone.
Had a quick read.
I don't really know what the big rush to townread people after just a few posts is for.
ES would you have townread you off the first page or two here? There's nothing there that couldn't reasonably be expected of either mafia or town surely. I don't really know what trfel is trying to achieve.
Looks to me like if you try real hard to get a townread in the first couple of pages it could well throw all your reads off for the whole game, no?
Pandain nothing actually happened between you townreading trfel 'exrtemely strongly' and then downgrading twice to null. That's kinda lame dude.

You know after thinking that over for a second. It is strange! but he hasn't been around since Rayn got around I think. So maby he can answer. I'd lynch him but it's more policy.

Do you feel like this applies to you this game trfel?

@Jock No my actual problem was Pand seeming to give Truffles free town read and leave me Null for the same reasons. Made no sense to me. I can just just be super dense.

There's nothing I can really say to that then is there? Conversation over.

I don't like Pandain deciding to town read trfel, hearing trfel say his read wasn't that strong but THEN saying "I don't think trfel would make such a strong town read as mafia because that ties his hands."
Feels like you ignored everything trfel was saying. Don't hate the picking up on grack and conversion later but the trfel thing, especially downgrading your read after for something not relevant at all (the bolded thing you highlighted) looks like you're just winging your read and aren't thinking it through.

Do you still townread ES?

I need to figure who to vote for. I'd be fine with Conv for reasons I already said. Grack would be ok but rather not, if he's town he'll start playing. Or we just lynch into lurkers. Which is also trash.

Lynching lurkers isn't always trash. I personally don't see the rush to figure out a vote right now. I guess we all play differently but I'd rather wait until near the deadline to gather as much as possible first.
