I have a ping on LighFoot. Not sure why, but then again that's pretty common. Something about the "looks like I won't survive long" thing.
Kaiveran kinda pings me because of lazy vote on Maha, piggybacking mine, plus some cuddling and stuff. Sea Serpent pings me. |

I didn't ping you. Whether you imagined a ping or made the whole thing up is still to be determined.

Ah yes, this is a bit of a terminology mix-up; "ping" in the IM/UR universe doesn't usually mean "mention" like on the outside, it means "to catch one's attention", usually in a suspicious manner unless they specify with "townping" or "scumping" or similar. Quote:

Mahaloth's been a tough nut to crack for me so far, not saying you're wrong about it specifically, but moving on can only help to develop that read since he won't be able to hide in reactions anymroe. Quote:
Here's a guide to my most preferred ones, but they/them is also fine. (Honestly it's just "headless" they/them that inflects as singular, initially intended to write my character in stories because mixing multiple "they" entities of different multiplicities gets real confusing, real fast.) |

Sorry Pleonast, was unaware you had stated pronouns. You would think I would be on top of that. Sorry. |
#15

|

I am terrible at remembering others' pronouns, so no worries. My preference is also so slight as to be nearly non-existent. I've recently made it explicit in solidarity with those who do have strong preferences.

Salads appear on all ground I walk. I think I need an update on preferred pronouns, if people have them, since I've been away for a while. Otherwise I'll just call people 'they' I guess-

Mendie
You touched on some of the things that gave me my ‘ping’ 1- I don’t recall if Pleo is one of the ‘numbers’ people, but yes that caught my thoughts. 2- and 3-Seemed off as well. 5- I didn’t read it quite that way the first time, but it needs re-read. |

Damn guiri- you too?

Me what? I was pinged by Vanta’s apparent avoidance of the questioning. I don’t hold grudges, and don’t care about the last game, their behavior pinged me in this game and I found a possible scummy motivation. The explanation seems okay though.

I see. If you sea sea serpents by the seashore it must be that you are the one seen on the seashore because sea serpents do not seem to seek sealessness, preferring to be seen in icy seas for to see, you see.

Hmm, I think that about do's it for now.
how i'm feeling now I currently like: Sea Serpent (just like the cut of his jib, Pleo response especially gives my gut warm fuzzies), Mendie (#28 and the list-post matches my fond memories of wolf-hunting procyonids, mindmeld takedown of Pleo) I slightly townlean: plumpudding (I've seen convincing fake "drunk" gambits before, but the general thrust of the spam seems to indicate hunger for leads), Vanta Black (more presence and marginally more content than LF) I have no idea about: LightFoot (here now, but precious little in the way of actual content), Mahaloth (one OMGUS saga does not a read make) I am mildly suspicious of: guiri (gut read on that opening), Pleo (weird assumptions, and their big theorypost + P1 convo might pair them with guiri) I'm gonna hit the hay for now, not sure how much I'll be on top of things tomorrow (workday) but I'll definitely be here Friday for EoD. |

Reading back over the "don't claim vanilla D1" explanation, I thought Vanta was (naively?) applying the general rule to avoid unforced early game vanilla claims as it reduces the pool for town powers to hide in. Scum know who they are, and know which vanilla claims are true, so the pool of players left to hunt town powers in shrinks.

In this game there is only 1 PR - which changes the perspective a tad. maybe It could be a form of self preservation in early game to prevent undue attention from the killer in the Night as well. I think I need to stop not stating what I see as the obvious and sharing with the rest of the class. |

So there's this cop/doc/kill thing I think is very helpful. We don't have a doc or a vig but do have a cop so it could provide some guidance there.
Investigate: Mendie, she's making entirely too much sense in this game! Protect: Plumpudding, no particular reason, just a gut feeling Kill: Well obviously at some point unless something changes this has to be Pleo for me. I don't really like doing a town-to-scum listing this early in the game but I haven't changed my feelings on Mahaloth, and would like to see more content from LightFoot, who has posted a lot but without a lot of content. Will be back later, probably, but this is where I stand for now |

So, I did skim this while at work today, and I wanted to comment, if I do nothing else with the limited time I have left for today. [And by that, I mean, "Thursday" the 13th, even if it is 00:14 on Friday, as I type.] I obviously, didn't think it would be prudent to "Answer" to it, while on the clock, dodging customers at my register. "" Investigate: Mendie, she's making entirely too much sense in this game! "" So. About this. I have been trying to work on myself. In some places [Gender Questioning] this is more apparent, than in others [Hopefuly my Mafia play can catch up]. I'm not sure if pointing this out is "good form" or whatever, or if pointing it out, "kills" it, much like a goose laying golden eggs. My desire to have a numbered outline was always there, and I tried in previous games to try versions of it. ![]() I'm just not sure what to add to the claims that I be investigated. We don't need that Wine. Plumpudding You are razor thin on getting me to switch votes. Of course yours [as of now] would be a policy vote based on the spam. I'm not sure what else, all, to say here, and I recognize it is in poor form to vote you, just for that, but it is up there. At present, I still feel better served with my vote where it is. Not that we are taking votes on who to investigate, but, well, there is a reason I bring this thought up, immediately after the above two paragraphs. Especially with all of the grudge / joke / immediate aftermath of the previous game still in the air, I'm not too sure D1 is going to be much more productive. The odds, and the fact that this is Mafia after all, kinda telegraph to me, that we are going to lose one of our own tonight. In the midst of all of that, I don't really want to change what I have. Hopefully, we have a solid direction come D2. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Not to put too fine a point on this, but I wonder if we won't have too fine of a point on our game by then. No _real_ reason to believe that this game is gonna have curveball. Really, there isn't. But, even in games that are played straight, curves appear. Hurleys get shot. Captains fail to proofread maths. A Cluster of people go off and do the same things, all at once, orchestrated with each other, or not. [Dammit, I needed a third thing here, and I can't Hi Opal out of it either, --- I'm just saying Real Life has been known to screw games up before. [Games Won and Lost, because either Scum Team voted for someone, all at once, or Townies _not_ voting at all ] I'm not hiding anything, and while I may be known to have my head in the clouds, I am trying to stay with me feet on the ground here. In so many words, Buckle Up / Bumpy Night. ] Just, I hope Day 2 can be day 2, and not more day 1. That Drinks and Grudges can be checked. As I mentioned, Real Life is going to get me, here, and now, as it is. Further, I think I'm just over the point of digression. |

I feel I am missing out on something. But then, that's always the case. The one game that I am not trying to skim, and half of the game immediately refers back to the game last played, that I was not in, save for the drive by tap dancing noses. Which, I never in a million years, thought I would have to say ever. And in a coherent context, above and beyond the first instance of it. I'm sure there are games where it is not this way, and I am sure I [Probably as Meeko] have been in games, where Day 1 nets Scum. But, as it is not the rule, I feel today is going to feel bad, in terms of "Feel" and score, regardless. Not really sure what to do with that, even If I understood why we are spending so much time here, on the last game. |

Plum When /if you sober up can you please decipher your last string of "drunk" posts.
I don't have the patience to look- but it seems to me that the majority of Plum's posts are nonsense under the guise of intoxication. |
