@Ash

@diafiasco, do you mind if I ask what your approach to playing mafia as wolf would be on FoL?

i play exactly the same as both alignments sorry

[jason.mrrown]

@diafiasco do you wanna explain the barwe and ishmael reads?

[diafiasco]

whimsy

I think I just like that ash is trying to like get posts out, like a generating content focus? I like it when people ask questions, maybe bc it’s something I want to try to do more. I think his posting today after the initial bad posting has felt better to me anyway. I could be confusing comfort with his posting with towniness, but yeah

[diafiasco]

anyways wish more people were on but i’m freaking with these wagons

lowkirk if w!alexis is true i think he was hyperbussing

[meow]

@diafiasco

if person a tells person b to do something and i like what they say, this reflects positively on person b and is not indicative of person a

hm this makes sense. I think trying to coax engagement is generally townier than not though

[meow]

like I know I should be glad no one has posted bc I shouldn’t be on mafia but also this is distressing me

is the willow wagon bad

[jason.mrrown]

ok so i was thinking a lot about how shending admits they’re self-conscious about their play and then i got distracted by reading the game on mu that shending and barwe played together

anyways here’s something interesting i found

@barwe

well i’ll stop tunnelling when u stop posting like a redditor

@barwe

There are things coming from Shending I like and agree with. Like his Ture towncase #657. But u also keep making these really big points out of anything! That’s my main problem. Like right after, #659, attacking Ajisai as if what she said was incriminating in some way, while I thought her post was totally normal – just strange to misinterpret. It happens again and again! Is it mafia indicative to overanalyse like that, or does it point to the pointlessness of trying to analyse anything through text? Do I need to hop on a train and go to your house and stare you in the eyes to figure out the answer???

so from what i gathered barwe was tunneled on shending that game bc shending was making these big posts that sounded good but didn’t have much content, hence the “posting like a redditor” comment.

when barwe defends shending this game:

@Barwe

Cannot stress this enough: everything from Shending so far is nai if not actually towny!!! i KNOW he posts like a redditor but my god i just spent a literal week being paranoid and scumreading him bc of just the same things u all r reacting to rn. Turns out he rly just writes like that. Might seem performative but he’s just engaged and i was just lucky last time to have others from our community who knew his writing style better.

Shending making long posts that say nothing is NOT one of the reasons why he’s being wolfread this game

@Barwe

Also he’s way too experienced for the expectation-managent stuff, if that makes sense. Like if it were not genuine and nai for him he wouldn’t as a cheating lesbian write about his coming absence in the first place.

i think the underlined doesn’t feel like a real read. Part of it is how it’s worded, part of it is that I doubt there’s like an equivalent of reading into posts centered around activity in irl mafia, which is their background.

I think this post feels like barwe saw his partner being wagoned and decided to throw out a post defending them without really looking deeper into why shending was being pushed, but that feels like a bit of a stretch idk

VOTE: barwe

[jason.mrrown]

wait i’m so stupid barwe is saying that shending microanalyzing posts is what makes him sound like a redditor disregard the first part of my case

[iamagummybear]

Forgot this game dtarted bro

[iamagummybear]

Watchijg a mogie will be back soon

[jason.mrrown]

yeah i think this is a bad wolfcase and barwe coming out strongly to defend shending, saying that “i tunneled him bc of the microanalyzing in our last game, people are scumreading shending for similar reasons this game, here’s why it’s nai” is actually pretty towny

UNVOTE

[jason.mrrown]

well that was embarrassing let’s see what other silly things jason will do

[meow]

I liked barwe framing it as damage control for whatever reason

[jason.mrrown]

VOTE: aleph

[jason.mrrown]

wait no VOTE: ishmael

[Shending]
