this does make me wonder if i should be townreading you off of mindmeld meta :think:
Should I OMGUS you or nah
By all means case me homie
To be fair, quite a few of those off-site games were on the Radio alt, where I didn't really do as much active reasoning and would sometimes hide behind the gimmick (particularly as scum or when I was busy with other stuff).
What was your gimmick
I also checked the wiki for my flavor out of boredom and I can kind of see where my role comes from based on a specific wording used to describe the weapon on the wiki.

Exclusively speaking in song lyrics/titles. (Save for shit like votes and ITAs, of course.) Typically, I have the text link to the song that the lyric/title belongs to, though I do fumble the formatting at times.
Safe to say, I've played quite a few games on that account, since the gimmick lets me be fairly verbose while still having to think about how to say what I mean within the restrictions.
Of course, I had to take a few more liberties than normal when I was hosting that one game (which I once again stole the WW Mafia setup for), primarily by just having the role shit be in a quote from like modbot or your original post or what have you.
Fun fact, running that setup showed off the sheer amount of issues present in the combination of giving someone an increased voting power and turning on True Hidden Vote Powers.
For instance, at EoD1, the Mayor got outted because it didn't actually properly hide it and the setting wouldn't stay on.
And then, at another EoD, the wrong person was almost elimmed because it somehow made it to where the Mayor's vote was being counted as like 0.5 or some shit when actually calculating the lynch at EoD.

I also don't quite get the flandrs votes, to me it seems like someone who just wants to make some reads based off the little information available at the time. They are a little aggressive but I feel like its understandable to throw out reads without the intention of starting a wagon.
Also, are we sure we want to vote someone out today, I'm not experienced enough with mafia to know when voting is optimal

It's like the reverse of Psy in WW.
(People were legitimately scumreading him for not posting yet during the first bit of the game.)
Ngl I kinda forgot hal was even in this game.
(Okay, I wrote that part before remembering the implications of Hal being apricity. Y'know, the person who's been liking every post in here lol. It still kinda holds though (coping), so I'll keep it.)
Now that I think about it, DBD's also been a bit quiet. Though, I don't really remember whether or not he was part of the "basically vetoing the entire concept of D1" club, so that may explain it.
Yes we should vote someone out because we can at best keep pace with mafia kills if we do that
If we don’t, we’re selling ourselves a number disadvantage for more info
But we can’t action the info without massclaiming and in a fully closed setup we shouldn’t massclaim on day 2
So we’d just be repeating day 1 with one less member of the town (or maybe mafia shoot the indie if there is one which would be funny but unlikely!)

This is a ludicrously high effort gimmick
Congrats on accomplishing this and please don’t do it here LMAO
Yeah, there's a reason that I tend to cap out at like 50 posts/day at most on that.
I did make a spreadsheet full of URLs to a bunch of music and such for ease of access, which is definitely a major factor in me actually continuing to stick with the gimmick. Plus, I use MU's Private Game Threads as a Sandbox equivalent for some of the longer posts.
But yeah, it does sometimes get a bit annoying trying to remember what songs have lyrics for, say, some prepositions and what not.
Getting back on track, I believe that most of the Flandrs votes just boil down to people feeling a few scumpings and just dumping a vote on him because why not, with fairly few points properly being brought up.
(For reference, here are all the reads on Flandrs that I have on the sheet.)
So, of course, proper reasoning would be appreciated.
(Crreamy is probably the worst offender in this case, since he? just mentioned having scumpings there after a(n) ISO/rereading without citing any posts or points for said pings to be based on.)

Hi good morning I will now explain the flandrs votes which I didn’t before because I feel like dropping info and leaving before engaging with its reactions is just a headache
The simple version of it is that I think Flandrs’ questions asked in the thread just don’t really show any interest in solving AP so much as just forcing a conflict between the two. Given um, *me* I agree that double replying is kinda meaningless and for that and it really feels like that alone to spiral into an unstated read feels terrible to me. I call it an unstated read because CLEARLY flandrs is approaching AP with an air of suspicion

wis is town im not so sure about ck but im gonna have to reread them a bit
neon is town and I do *somewhat* agree with the AP stuff. Last night, reading AP, a lot of their posting just had me ask “what’s the point of all of this” That said, they’re far more willing to engage directly with others aorn so I mark it a terrible vote for d1 specifically.
I am still not sure of CK’s alignment.
Celever looks really good from how they approach ck but I feel like misunderstandings can be kiiinda easy to fake, wouldn’t vote them but would like to see them interact with more ppl

those not in the know, military service, in the first game you can call them in to kill everyone on a floor, monster or human. That said, it doesn’t gel super well with the current flavor so i doubt it
will not talk about this topic for a while because i think it’s just a waste of time
Good morning... geez catching up to 4 pages now feels like 20 pages did a year ago
Re: the votes on me, I agree my behavior has been mildly scummy so far, but it's easy to fall into that trap when most of your posts are just playing catch-up; same reason why I'm not really trying to read CK yet, for instance. Anyway I'm going to continue scumpinging a few more people by latching onto someone else's read (NE's I think?) about wisp subtly suggesting scum would be in inactives based on thread so far, which I really dislike (and I have a long record of disliking inactive votes as town, just look at my response to any joey wagon)
I stand by the bad vibes I got from AP, but I'm certainly not married to that enough to disregard other wagon ideas
Actually I dislike this enough to
##Vote Celever
for now
Other misc reads (no full list since I'm basically relearning how to read an NOC thread as I go rn):
NE yapping about lore (while being self-aware about its limited use to solving) and bouncing thoughts off wis/CK/Cel feels mildly towny to me
Neon's reset to null for me for now since I'll seemingly have to get used to reading his posts like I'd read anyone else's, which might take a while lmao
hal hasn't been playing a catch-up game, they've been reading along and liking posts both today and yesterday, so I assume his zeroposting is a deliberate choice rather than apathy. That was the case in the only other NOC we've played together at least
af makes me feel nothing inside
pulsar posting in stream-of-thought blobs and giving off mildly angy girlboss energy is well within her townmeta
Not sure how I feel about Evie being literally nowhere, then coming in and offering the easy counterpoint to a dominant opinion within the thread (i.e. I am scum). That's something I like doing for easy towncred as both alignments. Also don't love the "idk if we should vote D1" part but she says she's new so I'm willing to write that off as naivete
Shocking that DBD and M2H of all people haven't done anything yet, thread feels so incomplete without them

This really rubs me the wrong way and smells a bit informed. Assuming the vote leader at this stage of the day is actually gonna be the one lynched at the end given the weak strength of everyone's reads is either ignorant of NOC history (unlikely given Cel's reputation) or scum trying to take advantage of my usual tendency to pull dumb shit under pressure.

wis doesn’t think scum is in inactives, preeettty sure wis said that the fact that they ruled out so many people that weren’t inactive was a bad thing
