Good morning. I exist. Hopefully, I will throughout this game.
I'm CCGeek, you can call me CCG or Shaun. (Or GGGeek when I gamesolve)

I spent so long reading the opening posts trying to figure out every conceivable way I could end up with a ban (or at least a warning) and I got beaten to the punch.
By a shitty vote post too.
I felt this so much. Someone clear this man for the duration of RVS.
Damn, giving PS people the PS treatment is real.
Too coordinated perchance

Since my return from semi retirement from forum mafia I had noticed the L word being considered a no no. I like some of the alternatives mentioned by the mod but can I just confirm with the players currently active, is Yeet ok around here?
Yeet, Iim, kill, I use all of the above.
I find that wording a little suspicious.

Aureal and Black are early favourites. Im a sucker for niceness.
And Black in particular feel natural with the digression into a RL anecdote.

Day 1 readlists, while garbage-ish from an information perspective this early for others, are a decent starting point for any player's progression. +Town early into the day.
Hello clems-kun u_u
Very disappointed we didn't roll scum together
I just realized we have a Jolteon and an Umbreon in the game. Should I change my pfp to an eeveelution too?

you should know by now you don't need to try. I exist to be in your pocket. kinda like a baby kangaroo. it's my happy place
Generic trying to read and solve already is probably a good sign?
I dont count that as solving. I have a positive opinion of two people, ironically the only two known female players to me, so maybe im just being chivalrous?
Nah, you're willing to put in the effort and not lurk, that's what matters in RVS.

Setup is actually linked at the end of the ruleset.
Alright, now that we've got things sorted, let's yeet some scum!

Nice bus.

Just so everyone knows. I’m very unlikely to vote until the end of the day phase.
Tossing my vote out for statement reasons doesn’t work for me. And also because people tend to use past games as meta I learned that my town play should compliment my scum play, and what’s the one thing people like to lean on when trying to identify scum? Who they voted for (or didn’t).
Beyond that, I really don’t see anyone worth voting by for right now, the game has barely got going, and I recently got my eye in playing mafia again on another site which seemed to be a faster pace than here. At least I know I won’t fall behind on my reading of this one lol.
For your information, this indicates a really really bad mindset. Town's only method of poking around for scum on D1 is voting, and the less number of people voting, the less pressure created. Not using your vote on Day as Town is the equivalent of not using your NK as scum, that is, it comes up only in very niche situations. Apart from those fairly niche situations, you're mathematically better off using your vote. I think the fact that you're used to a faster format makes sense, because this mindset comes from the faster roomchat-based games. It is not really common that in a forum format, the first D1 wagon is the lim for the day. Even if we kill off a town D1, our consolation prize is the wealth of interactions they leave behind. We have a lot more time and a lot more potential for discussion.
Speaking of discussion, right now, nothing really pops out to me except for the scattered VC, which is really to be expected this early into a game. Let's just see how this devolves from here.
The one thing I'm probably not sold on is T3's faux(?) aggression, but I'm not at all familiar with anyone's PMeta in this game apart from Iavh's.
Speaking of T3, however.

Reasoning for my read: I thought the way that Black said this was weird. Like, why not explain why Generic's solving could be a good or bad sign?
I agree that Black's tone is slightly off here, in the sense that exhibiting a desire to solve this early into the game is enough for an RVS-period clear, so the "probably" portion is slightly unnecessary and expresses doubt over something trivial, which is not the vibe I was getting from Black from her previous posts. I'm slightly more inclined to give temporary Town points to T3 for picking up on this.
VOTE: Black
hi Dannflor, is this a random vote or is there some gutread involved in placing this vote?

Yeah but it was the way you phrased it that felt weird. Either way, I'm just grasping at straws to get discussion going.
The discussion will flow better once all of us have started actively participating and actively started wagoning.
