I don't think I've seen Jacob play as mafia, but my assumption would be that, like you and I, Jacob would try to play in a way that he thinks he can perform as either alignment. So I project from this assumption that Jacob himself thinks he could. Whether he actually can or not is a different matter, but out of all the high post-count styles, his, where he deliberately undermines his own conclusions constantly, is probably the easiest to duplicate as mafia. He never really has to stick by anything. If he fucks up, he can just say he wasn't thinking as town.

IMO it's less about the number of words, and more about the number of assertions with clear convictions.

Jacob, you said you don't enjoy playing as mafia the way you used to. If you used to enjoy it, surely you could shit out a ton of words while doing it?

How does Jake know he used to enjoy it and doesn’t now if he has only played town since he came back to the game?

That did occur to me, but I think it's fair to assume you have an idea about it without testing.

When I was a kid I enjoyed jumping off rooftops. I don't have to go and try it out to know I wouldn't now.

Jacob where did this switch on me come from? While I was swinging at you it felt like you were giving me rave reviews now you're acting like I'm your prime suspect?

It feels almost like you thought I was town until you thought you could lynch me when Vivax turned up?


Oh you're def not prime suspect there's been no change in alignment that way.

We are talking in theoreticals of if not math, who?

This is true I did shit out a ton of words as mafia when I enjoyed it so I could just be lying about that although each post was more structured.

Like to be clear I still whole heartedly think math.


I am very slightly concerned by Marvs lack of posting today. I mean he's kinda said what matters and seems committed to the Math lynch so kinda fair tbh.

Also the play in a way of either alignment would have been true if I wasn't quitting for life after this game. So it's a fair call.

Like being able to just log in and throw out opinions is okay but I can't imagine having to do that while also deceiving people. I did enough of that when I was Bisexual with my parents. To be fair for pretty good at it but the trauma is real.

The amount of effort it takes is just not worth it when I'm being a person as well now days.

Lack of engagement is a giant red flag for Marv btw.

He did say he would be away.

But also:

It’s Tuesday there, and he said Sunday was particularly bad

Like it’s pretty messed up that ttt has been more engaged than Marv recently and ttt openly states he is not trying.

I think this is on town and I laid out why, I hope I'm wrong.

Got a good share of luggage myself but differently, gonna unload it at the next shrink I find but still I couldn't be this open about any of my own issues on here. Not cause of TLers but other types of malicious actors that make such a thing impossible.
But yeah I've experienced borderline supernatural stuff as well. In a bunch of different ways. It's been like watching a puzzle fill itself for one or two years no.

That's the working hypothesis.

Maybe he felt he wasn't doing enough to save him so he left him a little souvenir
