I would but I cannot. We must call upon the HolyFlare. And hope he answers the call.

I've waited enough time. The HolyFlare has not heeded the call. I can very easily.

I'll answer the questions.
1) I'm always town.
2) 5 years
3) no
4) spammy
5) We'll have to find out.
6) Probably Calix.

We've definitely played more than one because in the last game we got in a shit fight.
I usually watch the games that I'm not in and the one scum game I saw you play you didn't seem like you were able to match your town play.

I dunno we'll see. I might just be overconfident because I haven't been burned before.

However I'm interested in your take on 'blendy' answers. well im not making a ground breaking finding but mafia generally try to blend in and make non commital or mimic posts right so they might have thought answering a list of questions which everyone else was doing is a good idea. probably not relevant here as the questionnaire was hardly insightful and i dont want to start a circle jerk with, well you posted 5th so you are scum. the whole exercise got me some good reads so not entirely pointless and now the the game is moving. Nothing is going to be ground-breaking at this point so that qualifier (from DF too in the post above) is 100% unnecessary. I didn't approach the questionnaires like that. The VCA-style "X voter/ poster is scum" thing is useless as a metric. What "good" reads do you have? yo just calm down alright My emotional state is irrelevant to the question. You claim to have reads, I'm asking for them. What's the point of saying "I have reads" and then be stubborn about sharing them? so what I did is I checked the order in which people responded to the questionnaire and the first ones to respond are clear town until we get to the people who were like 4th and onwards who are likely scum. 100% accurate I can't tell whether you're being serious or blowing me off here or both. If it's the former, I'd like to hear the rationale for that. nah not being serious, you just had no chill so it was fun to mess with you a bit. i thought your first post about michael was pretty good so your pretty towny to me. everyone else is suspect though. especially that kmatt dude If you think kmatt is suspect why did you vote Grack? cos silverwolf blew the whole thing wide open with his theory that maybe earlier posting was scum and not later posting. So I perfectly fused the two theories and my calculations said that 4th post was most likely mafia. You want a graph?
I demand to see the calculations, as well as the graph.

DF, you seem sensible. What else have you noticed so far? I actually feel weird about ika. Asked the kinda useless questionnaire and has basically been bs'ing a bit since. Not a real read but I find his opening a little off
Ika looks pretty good to me as well as Kelsier.
That's the best I can do at the moment.

I can't imagine myself saying sorry for something as a first post kind of deal so I don't get why he would is what I'm getting at.
I think I get why. It's a sign that he may be concerned about how people are viewing his absence from the start of the thread.

I think Vivax's posts have been really townie.
Of the active players I think that DF is the most likely one to be scum.
Parts of his opening seem awkward to me like he is trying too hard.

I don't consider troll openings to be AI on this site, sadly, so I'm not sure I follow on your first point. Is it the exclamation marks that rub you the wrong way or something?
Perhaps. It just doesn't feel like natural posting to me.

It just doesn't feel like natural posting to me. Not everyone will enjoy a good Barty Crouch Jr. reference. I accept this. You mentioned town reads of Kelsier/Ika earlier. Have those evolved? And what do you make of Kmatt's second entrance/follow up?
I don't think Kelsier has been around since then. I like his tone a lot. Kmatt seems fine to me. His reads post doesn't look great but that's pretty much to be expected when all of the reads are still really shallow.
I'd be more curious on watching how Ika and SW read each other since they have an idea of each other's normal play. Right now I assume they're both town. Definitely not a day 1 lynch at the very least.

I liked his pressure on DF and I've liked all of his responses to being pressured. Really I don't see a single meh post in the bunch.

Onegu is also scummy. I think there's a very low chance that he doesn't understand how his play is usually read by a new player. He's been shit posting for too many years now.

Ika please prove to me that you are not scum.

It goes straight to the heart of the question. If you cannot quote some posts to prove yourself town to me then surely I cannot do so to convince you that Vivax is town
I've already given an answer that I find satisfactory. I like the effort he's putting into the game. I like the angles that he's pushing. I like his attitude and response to being pressured.
