That's re: Nich claiming I have been insulting honk [even provoking is a stretch].No, I haven't.
My opinions might seem safe due to a generally agreeing consenus, but they were formulated on my own.Nah man, it is ****ty. All your stances are safe as ****. Every single one of your reads is something somebody else said before you, you elaborate about nothing, and add nothing. All you've done is piggyback on other people's pushes.
Only player who has called me out so far? You didn't call out anything! I had to ask you what "convenient" meant. You also only jumped on me after J suggested I might be scum with Honk, and Gheb followed up by saying I should die. It's just another example of you only taking stances that you already know other people will agree with. Everything about your play is safe.
I'm giving sjoupey, BW and Jake free passes to Day 2 on the grounds that they're all mislynches waiting to happen.
Then lynch me. The only thing I'm held liable as town is to get my thoughts out there and push things that could help us find scum. I'm not going to feel guilty about this anymore, maybe you'll just mislynch me enough where I'll finally get a meta such as Nabe.
Well this makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside.I have to bounce for the rest of today.
I'd like to hear what people think about Gargaglione after reading my post.
Also posting here to remind myself to respond to Ryu, and I guess Kary asked me something awhile back that I need to dig up.
Ey, Kary.@ jakestan tell me what you think of Gheb, please.
@ #HBC | BadWolf I don't know if you're signed up for the dgames TCG, but there are no cards awarded for playing like a turnip.
@ frozenmarsh751
you're quiet. Where's your head at?
Well isn't that convenient for you.My opinions might seem safe due to a generally agreeing consenus, but they were formulated on my own.
Ok, i'll give you that for nowFor example, I dont recall anyone explicitly stating that july and gheb are town-leans. Even if everyone feels it, I dont see that anyone has said it.
What if I told you that Honk's vote was not omgus? Would your opinion change?My reasons for disliking honk have mainly to do with omgus, whereas others seem to dislike the slot for other reasons.
Wait a minute, did you just straight up admit that your read on on jakestan is completely random, and unwarranted? He is null-town, or is he really just playing null? Which is it?And ask yourself this, why would I just randomly hold different stances on people like jakestan when they're really just playing null?
What exactly is it that you're waiting for?I wasnt gonna push frozenmarsh (or you) yet, because that seems out of the question for D1 so far, so I was gonna wait. Im not gonna push everyone I dislike immediately.
I am completely unconcerned with jake right now.I don't like his read at all nor the timing of it either.
What do you think of Jake then?
You're right! I would not participate in a Honk lynch. Near as I can tell, the case against him is, "soup is acting the way he always acts when he's town."Well this makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside.
I get the impression that you like Honk, or at least, don't want to lynch them, but I would like you to spell it out for me.
our QT is pretty quiet, cuz my other half is quite busy. I think we make a good team tho, cuz our playstyles are very different, and we catch things the other one never would have. Kind of fills in the gaps.Also, how are the two of you getting along in your hydra?
If I may defend myself here regarding my 'ticking time bomb' attitude, people have been really mis-characterizing it and treating my outbursts as if I'm truly shouting at my computer screen while I type every other censored word to make my points clearer. I swear because I'm trying to stress the point of something, to accentuate and say 'listen here dip****.' I'm sorry I can't always be on my best behavior, but I can honestly tell you this is nothing like tranquility, the only person who I've really had much of a confrontation with this game is Jakestan, and even then, I made something out of it. I simply cannot recall a time where I opened this thread purely angry, or looking to start a fight. When I said I like to get into people's faces, I didn't say I like just starting fights. I picked on Gheb in a light-hearted fashion to try and show him that his words weren't intimidating to me, but for some reason...people see it differently. I think the main problem with everyone is that you people have built on some image in your head of me based on a couple of instances where I've gotten angry. This game has been fairly relaxing to me, and even at -3, I'm not worried, because as I've said before, I have nothing to be guilty about.
Marshy, you should be someone who should understand my viewpoint the most, as your play and the way you handle mafia is just as controversial and some even label it 'anti-town'. I'm not an idiot though, and the fact people treat me as if I 'have no focus' really need to reconsider why I do things. I think people need to stop focusing on my attitude and look what I'm actually saying, because a lot of the flak I'm getting is the fact that my attitude doesn't sit right with people, but when I ask the question as to why that is, nobody can give a solid explanation other than it's 'anti-town' in their mind. Well, If I have to be 'anti-town', then so be it. I can understand a warning and I can understand me being a bit big-headed, but if you told someone like J that he couldn't post walls, he would probably do it anyway. It's just apart of how I play, and it's something you'll have to get used to. And..who's to say that will be how I always act? I can be just as calm as I can be rambunctious.
Actual reads begin here:
I don't have too much to note in regards to anything else, I think marshy's big post is typical of him, but I agree with most of his points. I've had it in my head that J/Jake contained one for awhile now, and while J's buddy-buddy is typically null for him, I can't help but feel a lot of what he's saying doesn't hold merit, and is simply overblown. There's nothing I can go into detail as of right now without truly looking into it, but the feeling Nick and Marshy are getting is the feeling I'm getting; I'd prefer Jakestan over J however.
Kary's been an enigmatic slot for me for awhile now, someone who I haven't really bothered to read but then again, nothing much to read. I don't know what his intentions are and I certainly don't like him, mostly because I think he has little to offer and even if he was just trying to formulate something, I haven't seen it yet. Coasting would be a good word to describe Kary.
Garg feels genuine, albeit a bit slow on his approach. I think Rid****'s case on Garg is really rushed and uninteresting, but I also think it's townie, mostly because I feel like the points Rid**** are trying to make are so ridiculous that it wouldn't come from a town PJB would thinks in such a ridiculous manner.
I don't know where to pin Gorf, I don't like him being so ****ing stubborn towards me and feeling like he simply won't listen. Does anyone feel this stubbornness is scummy? I haven't had anyone say much about him besides Garg who insists that he's null.
Nich I sit comfortably with, there's nothing in detail I have to say about him, but I feel he's got a good head on his shoulders. His posts seems reasonable and most of what he says actually feels like he's put some thought into it, and I really think people should listen to him more; I wouldn't lynch him anytime soon and I think he's townie.
Ruy feels weird and Joey thinks Ruy is playing weird. I don't know where I stand with him right now, but apparently Joey has something more to say about his play. I don't feel like Ruy is getting much done right now, which I don't like in hindsight. @ #HBC | Red Ryu , do you have anything to note that you feel is important?
BadWolf is a non-factor, and I'm not ready to say that his non-factor play is something that is indicative of alignment. He's probably just V/LA as he says.
Don't ask me to read July, I never get it right. It's a slot that I will never be consistent with. The feeling I get? She's smart, which is already evident. I'd like to trust her, and just basing off of her reads right now, I think she's townie enough to keep around.

Heyo Soup, how's it hanging?if badwolf is scummy, i'm pretty sure im going to vote him regardless of him 'being badwolf', there's no need to hand-hold someone or give them benefit of the doubt because what you're doing is giving them a chance if they're scum to get away with inherently scummy actions
which is bad, and that same treatment should be made for all players, i really don't understand your approach right now and i find myself confused and alarmed, i feel you're being quite weird, maybe even a bit uncomfortable
To be fair to him, I have had a constant streak of games in which I gather too much attention and inevitably get lynched because of it. Whether it my fault or peoples' own thoughts of me depends on the game. Take for instance, Simpson's. Granted I don't think we should give people a pass on D1, even if it does include myself. I don't think it's scummy as much as anti-town.You postulate the existence of some sort of principle in the first paragraph where a certain pool of players inevitably becomes the center of attention and gets lynched, dictating the remaining course of the game as a consequence. Criticizing that is fair game. What you do though, is trying to establish an even more questionale principle to counteract such course of action. You're concerned about some people not being treated equally because they are considered "lesser" players but at the same time you actively try to promote unequal treatment yourself. If that's the way you intend to go for the first Day of this game then you'll probably have to accept that you're going to be alone during that time. People will lynch players if they think it's the right thing to do - most of them will probably be wrong most of the time because they lack the skills to make the right call but that's still better than what you suggest. And don't expect people to accept your decision as an excuse should it turn out that one of the players you mentioned flip scum.
Ryu's questions were aggressively stupid. I can understand why Gorf would shut them down.Vote: Gorf
Tell me Gorf, why are you being aggressively unhelpful? Red Ryu's questions might not be premiere scum hunting, but every game has to start somewhere, and it pushes us out of RVS.
This was kinda out of the blue. I thought you were cool with them. What changed?Vote: Honk
I'm liking J so far.I am actually siding with Gorf in the debate between you/Ruy/Garg. He has a valid point where he the questions being asked to him do not really lead anywhere and are kind of a dead-end. A post you said kind of struck a chord with me was "agressively unhelpful" which I think is stretching it. Being "aggressively unhelpful" is better suited to describing a slot such as Honk thus far in the game. I do not really see how Gorf is being unhelpful by trying to stop unnecessary conversation. Gheb did the same yet you haven't brought anything up towards that.
So I have a question for you, why does Gorf deserve your vote so far out of everyone? I would also like your opinion on Honk.
It's not that I have an issue with him, it's more so I don't think he is a town read.
dude you know i got yo back, im on it ez pz
lollllllllll i remember my first game with marshylol frozen how the **** am I supposed to ****ing follow that **** "**** this and **** that too" is what your post is
lol k you can die its cooI agree with Gheb on J. I also agree with Gheb on marshy. Marshy, you can suck it. Tech week at the theatre is still going strong so my activity will be scarce.
just been rereading ; i'll get back to you real soon I have to leave to go out for dinnerWho do you not read as town?
Not really, but how about you show me what isn't specific enough about my scum read? Hell maybe it'll save Garg the time to reread if you properly quote my suspicion!
this is the legitimacy of your scum read right now in my eyes
While Gorf is kind of right here, I'm not digging his reasoning when I go back and fetch it.Well then you simply haven't read my posts well enough to warrant curiosity. Find the two posts of mine that directly mention the specificity of my scum read on Honk, and quote em and revise your question if needed, thanks
Is him disagreeing but not finding someone scummy? Well scummy?I feel similar to *******; every post they have made... They feel too diplomatic. It's as if he can't simply disagree with somebody, the opposing side HAS to know that he's okay with them having a different opinion in the following examples:
I actually skimmed over these posts from the hydra when I originally voted em. I didn't like that they reacted to Garg initially, but when I saw that he said that he can "agree to disagree," I reread it to see and ended up liking the slot less, hence my vote.
Ehhh...I don't agree here. Yeah he has been pushing me a good fair amount, but he has done more than that. At least at this point where I am reading up?It's how the slot interacts with most other slots that I'm not digging. It feels like the only dirty his hands have gotten are recently with Ruy, and even then their back and forth feels somewhat shallow. His base for the Karebear read is laughable and seems to have fallen flat. Oh and also I don't even see how this is on par with the typical Soup pile on personally aside from the fact that it just happens to be soup.
I read ahead and saw people were calling this bad.if J still holds to his strong-town read on Jakestan after that post i'm going to ring him by the neck because it's ********
in fact everything jakestan says is ********
the main thing about jakestan that bothers me so greatly is that he's non-confrontational, he states dislike for my slot yet in the end, it doesn't go anywhere, and the feeling i get from Jakestan is that he's trying hard to fit in, and not doing any scumhunting of his own
i think what's more conclusive is the fact he dances around with his read on me as evidenced in the next quote:
jakestan, if you're trying to pressure me, wouldn't you be more reluctant to talk to the person you want to pressure, instead of going off of what everyone else says? J thinks this post is brilliant, and i think it's meaningless trite.
the difference between you and Gheb's pressure is that gheb has the balls to call me out, but you want to reinforce everyone that you're not stepping on any toes and basically there's a word i would give your play so far
safe.
everything you do is safe, nothing is indicative or perhaps telling, and i don't think you're getting down to the nitty gritty to make me believe that these actions hold town intent, because you've had so much opportunity to pressure me and move this forward as you claimed, yet you choose to opt out in every situation
you're playing to the room and i think you should die tbh
Vote: Jakestan
@ ranmaru I editted this post to remove the censor dodge, just an FYI.Aight thanks
Soup what the actual **** are you talking about.
Uhh, no.D1 i'm not looking for positive concrete scumreads, I want to start to develop reads and even more importantly this point town reads
i'm gonna vote the player who is scummiest which is guess who
/HONNNKKK
i'm a player who goes strongly by mafia101 logic early game and look for town reads just as much as scum reads and i'm not going to out all my reads d1 ever
what???!!!Jake has absolutely NOT avoided confrontation, and can be interpreted as a cautious player much easier than being interpreted as a hiding player. Refer to all his posts in the god damn game if you don't know what I mean.
It's literally the opposite. Orbo hasn't even logged into the hydra account yet.OFFICIAL FF'S READS TIER LIST/POWER RANKING THREAD:

Orbo (because im assuming PJB hasnt posted really yet, confirm plz ridic)
I hate this post with a passion.I feel like this alone is enough of a reason to lynch you.
He hasn't been avoiding confrontation you *** hat. His vote has been on you this whole time. He's addressed players questions directly. He's doing what every cautious player does in every game ever. Should we just lynch Nabe D1 every game he plays? Orbo? Kary? You are CHOOSING what light you are going to read what players in. You decided early on that you'd have a bad read on jake, as evidenced by your tone toward his slot all game. You. Are. Not. Playing. A. Town. Game.
