mhm something that caught my eye just now is the obvious thing going on between tim and inf.
however, the root seems to be where inffy voted sessy quite early on, who then gave like a quick response along the lines of 'oh no im being voted inf might be scum'. Then Tim a bit later joined that vote, after which inffy immediatelly swapped votes to tim while saying something like 'oh no i see a tunnel comming'. Moreover, sessy hasnt checked in since. Something interesting might be there, but i am interested what tomorow brings mostly. I don't mind a lynch, but alisha mentioned a no lynch, which ive sorta softened up to playing on discord.

I'm going back and forth on you because I feel like you're coming from a good place, but your refusal to even consider the fact that you may be barking up the wrong tree is what keeps telling me you may be scum. Frankly, I'm torn. I'm not sure what to think, and how I feel about you is changing with like every other post. And my flipping is not influenced by anyone else's opinions of you because frankly, I haven't re
And yeah. Of course I'm trying not to step on any toes I always try to avoid stepping on toes. The only time I get aggressive is when I'm confident. Mind you, I've often ended up being wrong when I'm confident, but that's not the point here.
Town tim would say "It's much more substantial than a "gut feeling" vote, wouldn't you think?" to sound accusatory, implying that my reason to vote is stronger than yours. If anything it's more confrontational, not less.
Didn't I vote myself the last time I was mafia? I can't remember that long ago. I forgot since it's been fucking ages since I've played mafia. On a more serious point, I don't buy your reason for voting me at all. Is my suspicion on inf a little omgus? Maybe. But to say that you wouldn't expect me to be this defensive? You may need to refresh your memory, I'm always this defensive.
And this part. This screams to me "I know tim is town, but I'm gonna throw the "if" in there to cover for myself. In setup with this much risk, voting someone on day zero that you aren't confident is mafia is suicide [as town]. And based on this statement, you certainly don't seem confident.
Unvote
Vote Stranger
To me, making it a question is less confrontational - it's like, 'wouldn't you agree?' vs 'but this is how it is', it's more buttery if that makes sense
I don't buy this read either. I don't think town tim would find stranger saying 'if' in regard to your alignment suspicious because it's fair enough to say 'if' because nobody knows for sure what alignment you are, no matter how confident they are, and I don't think the word 'if' necessarily means that person is super under confident in their vote, and I think you'd agree with that as town.
You keep saying "I don't think this is what you would do as town," but you clearly need to adjust your idea of what you think I would do because I am town.
Do you or do you not agree that in this setup it is dangerous to vote someone that you aren't confident on?
(and from memory you aren't as desperate not to step on toes as town compared to this. you're always polite yeah but this is different, again not sure how to explain properly, it's just an impression that you're carefully wording your posts for the specific intent to avoid getting into an argument, whereas as town you're fine to get into an argument because you know you're town and can defend your ideas because they're coming from a genuine place, but here you're being overly cautious not to get any attention)
The last time you were mafia was Lasagne Mafia and you didn't vote yourself in that game. In Timeline of Dichotmous Flowers, you stated that you were nervous because it was your first time playing as mafia.
Furthermore, you're acting like you're incredibly nervous now. First off, you are coming across as extremely confrontational in your posts responding to early suspicions on you. Secondly, you've only posted reads on sessybessy, Inffy and myself, which leads me to believe you don't want to open yourself up to more cross-examination from your reads, especially so if said reads are faked.
Maybe, but I don't know that
I think it's more dangerous to not vote at all for the reason I said earlier. It's better to lynch your top suspect than nolynch even if the top suspect is someone you're not confident on imo. But even if you disagree, I don't think using the word 'if' when referring to your alignment is an indication that the person isn't confident about your flip, it just means they're being reasonable in understanding that you might flip either way. If they said 'when tim flips scum' it'd have been much more concerning to me, and I think you'd have the same opinion as me on that if you were town.
Be less cautious of getting into a debate, not think stranger's use of 'if' is suspicious, and his reads and posts would hopefully feel a lot more genuine to me (though I can't give specific examples on the latter)
I'm fine getting into an argument in this game, clearly, or I wouldn't be.
My nervousness is long gone. I was nervous getting back into the swing of the game. Think of it like walking into a familiar place, but everyone is milling around awkwardly, unsure of what to be doing. That's basically the feeling I had at the beginning of the game.
I'd also like to address the fact that you saying I'm being really confrontational (isn't that mutually exclusive from being overly defensive like you were saying earlier? ?) while inf is saying I'm trying too hard to avoid confrontation. Which is it?
And I posted a short reads list because frankly, I have no other reads. Without the ability to filter posts by user, it's really hard for me to go back and analyze one person at a time.
You've kind of been forced into one now though because you're being voted and accused a lot. Before, when there was a chance you wouldn't need to defend yourself this much, you seemed to be putting effort into not getting into a head-on disagreement.
Different reasons for each of us I guess. I personally don't think you've being overly confrontational, I think you're just defending yourself
The only solution I have is to click on people's profile pages and go through their posts that way but some people have their profile on private so it won't work for everyone I don't think (unless nobody in this game has it on private)
