Vegas Mafia Day One

[guiri]

Meeko is solidly in my Meeko column, and tends to stay there until D2 at least. I don’t see why he thought Archangel was “going after the new kid”, or did he mean me?
Gnarly is unlikely 3P but could be scum if there’s no mention of other anti-town forces in his wincon. I don’t give townie points for an erroneous gotcha vote, no matter how early, both Gnarly and Colby had access to the sample VT role PM and wincon.
Archangel’s explained herself, I thought the question was phrased strangely - instead of “Do you know me?” Or “Have we played together before?”, asking you if she knew you read weird to me. Weird is not necessarily scummy though.
Mahaloth’s question to the village about the possibility of gambling kinda fits into that weird column. If he’s aware of any hidden game or mechanism within the game, it’s out in the open now, he’s clearly not VT and he could be fishing, and if he’s not aware but really wanted to know the answer, he could have asked the moderator. Otherwise it’s just a little weird. While other players have a habit or policy of claiming in their first post, I don’t believe Mahaloth does, and I also don’t recall if he follows the town never lies policy, so claiming VT truthfully reduces the pool for any power roles to hide in and adds little info for the rest of Town - except maybe a tracker, why bother?
Vanta’s naked vote on Meeko gives me a nice town vibe.

Thanks?

I meant the entire conversation. It just reeked of manufactured. Don't get me started on my disdain for pep rallies, and cheerleading in general.

Straight up, I'm already leery that Kaiverian and I probably won't be able to divorce our shared fandoms as we will need to in order to play this game as best as we would need to. I say this, knowing full well that Kaiverian has stuck his neck further out for me, than I them.

My problem is, I can point to the things I need to point to. I can be aware of them.

No, I don't mention any change in course of my actions. That's my entire problem, in all things. Mafia too.

A moment of clarity for me here :: I think I over-read certain posts. That, or the game took a speed up than I am at, when I wasn't watching. .... And we are still Early Day 1, right? Right?


How much of this Gnarly pontificating is actual fact, actual knowns [Fictional, or otherwise] and actual wishful thinking?

Like, I don't see how you got "There" from "Here" on Gnarly, already.

At the same time, I'm probably doing the same with Kaiverian, so,

Again, I'm aware of things, but, can't change them as I would like. I think the entire Serentiy thing hits me the hardest, and I still haven't learned that I can't change it. [And that's probably why it does. Wait, did Stephen King write the Serenity Prayer?!]

You are far off on some tangent here that I don't see.


My god. Is that how I am to you guys?!

I mean, I'm sure you all left posts and signposts to point out where you are going.

Why point out Gnarly and Colby here? Don't we all have this information, from the same time that it was posted?

On AA :: This gets back into Kaiverian, which I think I've addressed enough, at least for now, yes?

Mahaloth’s question to the village about the possibility of gambling kinda fits into that weird column. If he’s aware of any hidden game or mechanism within the game, it’s out in the open now, he’s clearly not VT and he could be fishing, and if he’s not aware but really wanted to know the answer, he could have asked the moderator. Otherwise it’s just a little weird.


And my entire thing was, I wanted to point this out to Maha, and also point out that game was closed set-up .... but then I got lost in the nuance of Closed V Open, and shelved it, indefinitely. As much as I want poker, or other "" casino "" in this game, I think we long passed by when that had to be introduced, to be viable. I thought this long before the Mod interjected that there is no "Casino" in the game. Which I guess was the last gasp of hope for a "Game Night" during the Night phases.

But yeah, I didn't want to bring this up, because I was paranoid that it would put focus on me over things and aspects of this game that I know nothing about, .... not unlike the near trap I set, baited, and then fell victim for myself, in Margaritaville.

While other players have a habit or policy of claiming in their first post, I don’t believe Mahaloth does, and I also don’t recall if he follows the town never lies policy, so claiming VT truthfully reduces the pool for any power roles to hide in and adds little info for the rest of Town - except maybe a tracker, why bother?

I think Mahaloth is slowly but surely evolving to a "I claim in my first post" position here [And to be clear, has been doing so, in recent games].

FWIW, I think Pleonast is, at the same time, and for a profound want of words, is devolving / conceding that position to Maha. We are going to get rid of someone doing it, but, at least we make the deck chairs look nice.

I guess that does kinda move me in a certain way, overall.



Finally, There is an assumption that Vanta's vote moves them into your Town column.

But, You know, you could be ""smart"" and read that as you stating that I am in your town column instead.

Bolding mine. Do you think he is not VT or as you later type was that statement contingent on the first part o that sentence?

my cognative skills are a tad off at this time
