6. forgot about FFA so hard he doesn't even get a gif (rip)

no sense in reclarifying Charu's or his so I omitted those

This post alone is like the best thing I've seen Svaz do all game and I like it.

svaz if you want to keep playing i recommend upping your postcount

1 naw, he thinks I'm cute
2 I legit do not know how to respond to someone saying that the fact their vote was OMGUS was a good point and then turn around to unvote. I'm sure it's never happened before.
3i never watched Yuri Yuri but I never really wanted to either. Watch Universe instead

The list of anime I've seen are: Nichijou (which I own on Bluray. Thanks FFR), Trigun, Soul Eater, and season 1 of Ace Attorney.

Ah, then you want Outlaw Star .

You can think me later

[MixMasterLar]

Or even thank me, if you rather

[TWGma]

If I'm going to be blatantly honest, I will read that post, and the title and subsequently forget later.
I just don't care to watch things when I could be playing other things.

I appreciate the recommendations though.

I can relate. Anime and YouTube are about the only passive media I enjoy. Games are much more engaging to me.

[MixMasterLar]

I didn't bring my laptop so I can't easily update my sig.

This saddens me

Anyway I should feel better about Svaz because T Force is honestly right about her posts.....i just don't.

1. yes
2. close enough, in short you were wayyy more aggro last game
3. he's boring, playing the game as he ought to be,m there's no SPICE TREVOR HASN'T EVEN TROLLED OR REALLY MEME'D THE FUCK
4. assuming by transfixed you mean in a state of confusion, yes, not a bad one tho which the imagine admittedly does not convey
5. nervous no but clapping in amusement aka happy with lar
6. pretty much he's been white noise to me, and is thus null

also trevor you're the only person I expected

also if you're into females into females in a slice of life where nothing happens, sure.

if not go watch madoka magica

Well,

I know you immediately went up and pulled some potential reads that Lightknight might've had for the wolf to target them but ended up empty handed as a result. So that looks really good for you.

Xel mentioned the wolf being cute, but no one questioned what he meant by that statement. He probably instantly though of last game since he was in it and saw Lightknight get A LOT of flack. I'm just assuming anyways, but I think that makes him look reasonable okay. Not super good, but it's something to add in which I think he's town, if weak. IF that's not what he meant by that statement, then disregard this.

TWGma immediately is aware (but not aware) of the reason why a wolf would kill Lightknight. I can't connect him to the previous game since he wasn't in there, so the vendetta thing doesn't work for him. While I am calling him a wolf for another reason, I can definitely see a world that makes sense that TWGma would go for a lightknight kill for that very reason. Of course a proper defense would be "but a wolf should just stay silent", but the counter-argument would be that it would look bad for the wolf if they didn't voice why Lightknight got wolfed.

...I feel kind of biased, but really, he just feels right. But I'm totally prepared to see it be completely wrong and I eat dicks again or something. I don't really want to lynch anyone else based on this and what I talked about already.

...

...

Anyways, Svaz comes in an apologizes for her being MIA for last phase (and this phase). She was confused with lightknight's death, honestly, it's null, but I can see a town mind in that as well. Though if she is a wolf, she's doing the "low post" strat we all love and hate. She fooled me last game too, so I'm already prepared to re-evaluate my read on her constantly as the game progresses (and I don't die).

Backpack comes in and also voices confusion and posts that people were reading him town as a reason.

Then add an hour or so later and you and backpack are at it with backpack going super aggressive once a deathpost got dropped. I know, I shouldn't use that as a read, but it was so strong, how can I NOT use that as a read?

...

I think I wrote up more than I wanted, you just asked a simple question and here I am writing paragraphs of what I see, jesus.

More of that, Xel

correct me if I am wrong but wasn't I the one who wanted lightknight gone first day of the game

because that's what I was alluding to

We forgive you.

That was actually pretty helpful, assuming you're actually a town.

[Svaz]

I definitely get a vibe of frustrated town from TWGma, wanting people to do more and do better (trust that I understand the general feeling of frustration re: TWG and effort, perhaps I read town due to empathising with the plight despite my own contribution to it this game).

Dai seems to be basing his votes off interpersonal experience, but I'm wondering why he also never wavers, is it like that maxim, "keep your friends close and your enemies closer?" and reading a lot into that because of their camaraderie? I'm not sure which way that reads to me, I guess neither town nor wolf, but it does bother me a bit.

Lar's posts really do read like exhaustion and I feel like that makes sense now, I guess I let myself get pretty asspained over stupid things and that's what compelled my vote (which I guess fits the newbie pitfall of OMGUS pretty well) in the first place but since it's so emotionally based, it's probably wrong.

Charu seems to make pretty sound posts to me and I have a hard time believing that so much content and thought would come from a wolf, though I'll try to maintain reserve into trusting that too much.

I guess other than my own posts the ones that strike me as most out of place are probably FFA's and I think I'd probably vote him out of everyone else right now just because I find him difficult to read.

Xel seems kind of bored with this game but isn't ignoring it outright.

Backpack seems consistently town to me and I don't really see the level of suspicion other people have towards him at this time, though I guess I'll try re-reading after eating some food or something.

I think I'm missing someone here? I also am really struggling with what account belongs to what regular user so apologies for using just display names here rather than the more known identity.

(Also r/showerthoughts: how does Tapatalk play into Currently Active stuff re: Boney? I was curious about whether or not it led to the invisible display element since it was evident he was using it for the majority, if not all of, his posts)

[MixMasterLar]

Alright then

I want to see more of Daikyi/Yosh and DAD this phase


Which....is over in 30 minutes?

Speaking of FFA

I've been like... completely ignoring him subconciously and it's bothering me. Like I see his posts, but nothing in them really shouts out to me that I should deeply question. Mostly due to his past games and him giving reasons that I... just don't see but I respect his opinion all the same.

I swear, sometimes he says I'm town and sometimes he says I'm a wolf. This game, it's town this time, and I don't know what to say about that.

I guess, FFA, if you're there. How much do you feel for your wolf read you have currently?

I'm trying to remember the voice call. I know I was paying heavy attention to you, but I don't recall you ever having a strong stance on lightknight's lynch. If anything, you were following the crowd.

But maybe you did say something, but the volume was so distant that I just misheard or didn't hear it at all.

[MixMasterLar]

Ok.

Svaz you really don't have to try and sell us your unvote in me so hard

It's making me think you're putting way more thought into your votes then a town normally does

[Svaz]

Also, are we allowed to refer to the deathpost at all? It seemed kind of contested initially due to the, uh, heft of content within it, so I didn't want to reply to something that might not be here later, but it struck me as really fingerpointery towards more regular players and less towards newbs or those returning, not sure if that would limit the possibilities being in about the same boat myself, but it's something.

[MixMasterLar]

Pocket

Svaz focusing on the unvote/her "falling for the newbie trap" thing makes me feel like a I'm getting pocketed

That's the word
