Hello everyone!
I haven't read much more than just this page yet, but I am pleased to announce that Val was, and I am, Town!

Also VOTE: Rodent
Maybe the real Mafia was the friends we made along the way

Roden*

Autocorrect.... And I was gonna make a whole thing about being too close to Rodent....

In any case, this is a very serious hard scumread, though when I read the rest of the game I reserve the right to change my mind on that. But the past few posts are just absolutely full of WIFOM, and I REALLY don't like the attempt to lock me in as today's elimination.

I'm working on reading the game now.

Yes, I posted before doing that because I was excited to be here.

Alright, so.
I've skimmed around enough that I think I have a decent handle on things.

Been a hell of a game, huh?

So.... Reads then.

Catboi's Town. Probably Wu also. Shwinn.... Kinda goes back and forth for me, but right now I'm feeling Town.

Which leaves Roden and StD. And that happens to line up with my immediate reaction reading Roden's recent posts.

So yeah, I'm gonna stay right where I am for now.

This was probably the worst thing you could've posted after what happened with Val.

Do you at all disagree with my analysis of your slot or how precarious of a situation you're in? It's implied that you do by keeping your vote on me, which is really not the take you should be having right now.
I don't disagree that Val fucked up with the mason thing. I also don't disagree that I am in a very precarious position here.

My issue is your attitude that my slot is doomed no matter what. Though you did waffle a bit about potentially switching to StD, frankly I don't believe that was genuine. I think you're scum trying to secure the final push here, but hedging your bets by soft bussing StD.



Ah, welp, Ninja'd.

Precisely what I expected to happen, though I had hoped I could stop it.

In post 881, catboi wrote:RR, sorry. For the record my vote was nothing to do with your posting and everything to do with wanting to test my townread. I was just wrong here.
Honestly I probably would have done the same in your situation. As long as no one was lurking with a surprise hammer, would have worked great if Roden actually were Town.

It might have worked once in the other direction, but I am of the opinion that if you are playing mafia, you can probably count to four.

No, we are not. Don't buy the crap catboi is selling here; We WOULD have been in MELO if scum killed last night, but there was no-kill; and so there is an extra player (six, not seven, I give you that) that there would have otherwise been, and thus another chance today.

In any case, even if catboi truely beleived we were in MELO, wouldn't that be an even stronger reason to vote the slot you are suddenly sure is scum, and encourage others to do so?

Also, this was REALLY funny to me.
I think Val did alright overall though, just... That mason claim.... Oof.
