I am also a bit miffed about all this. >:IIt's been a while, but the lurking is still happening.
Biggest one now that Rob's out of their box is SinkingSailor, though I think that's another case of newer people feeling post-shy what with all the inquisitors psyching actives and such. And then there's nercania-orccelga.
If there's one bandwagon I'm staying on atm it's the day 1 is fake bandwagon.

Hey CSJ can you give explicit reads on Sunspider and Wheat please and thank you

I think you'll get a lot more reads on the backseat drivers when you aren't making night-kill threats on fake day.

RE: Nostalgfia Day 1 - I don't know the meaning of the word! - Granolaman - 05-02-2018
Do you have any scum reads? It's not impossible, but very unlikely that the entire scumteam is lurking.
If you think I'm scum, who do you think is allied with me?

The time's, they are a changing(their spots)
RE: Nostalgfia Day 1 - I don't know the meaning of the word! - CSJ - 05-02-2018
Short answer: I don't any more than the other reads I'm trying to make, but you're going out of your way to build a case based primarily on disliking your strategy of upping the stakes straight away AND openly posting about having a gun. It's a bit early for vigilante justice.
I dislike broadcasting scum reads this early. Coldblooded maybe, but I haven't seen enough to justify a hard lynch. I think they may be onto something with Nercania-Orccelga, but I want more from them especially after jumping off Spider as soon as the wheels were falling off.
RE: Nostalgfia Day 1 - I don't know the meaning of the word! - AgentBlue - 05-03-2018
good morning three pages in a row.
Based on skimming what we've got so far what I've mostly got is that
1) Wheat's dog gimmick is kind of annoying but not in itself scummy? But death dog is really ominous and I'm not feeling comfortable with the bandwagon here especially with the bomb discourse floating around (though honestly I'm awful at mafia meta so I don't know whether that was just thrown out there as a hypothesis or a real risk o_O)
1a) is there a dog year?
2) There's items? And apparently most of them only have effects at nighttime? I've been looking at my Present and I haven't decided whether to open it or not. Does anyone feel like sharing what their presents did? I mean, tit for tat, if someone tells me I'll open mine. I just don't want to get blown up. Again. Bomb discourse.
3) I'm still not sure about Spoids, but it is a truism that being active should not equate to being scummy. Still, the impression I keep getting is a lot of words and not much in the way of content or reads? I guess that's what fishing is all about. Lookit me I'm fishing too
4) I'm really bad at meta
5) At this point in time I'm not convinced enough on any case to put a vote on someone but at the same time I don't want a no lynch? But The Meta always says that D1 lynches aren't useful? gahh i just want more information
6) meow
RE: Nostalgfia Day 1 - I don't know the meaning of the word! - AgentBlue - 05-03-2018
no in the context of the game i am not a cat but in all other contexts yes
RE: Nostalgfia Day 1 - I don't know the meaning of the word! - Granolaman - 05-03-2018
Here's some information I've gleaned agen, you can decide if it's useful or not.
Spoids has a very very low chance of actually being a bomb and even if she were I doubt it'd go off if she were lynched.
The bomb suggestion was posed by CSJ in what looks to me like a veiled defense in order to get heat off of Spoids.
Both CSJ and Spoids have resorted to afk-hunting today which is one of those things people like to do to appear active without actually needing to scumhunt. (though in spoids' defense she has also been active with her debate with wheat)
CSJ considers me lynchworthy because I was the first person to post during Random Voting Stage. At first I thought this was supposed to be a trap and he was looking for people wanting to hop onto a bandwagon, but now it seems like this was his Actual Reason.
CSJ is also being very coy about committing to any scumreads, which is one of those things people do when they're worried about appearing consistent.
Given this stack I'm willing to commit a Vote: CSJ. If he flips scum Spoids is almost certainly scum too.
RE: Nostalgfia Day 1 - I don't know the meaning of the word! - Solaris - 05-03-2018
this is unrelated but when Robottobt opened that present i desperately hoped something would happen and im very sad that nothing big and public happened
anyway im not actually interested in the semantics of day 1 crimes or dog crimes, and i think im going to vote: schazer because im a precious and good person
RE: Nostalgfia Day 1 - I don't know the meaning of the word! - awkwardcarapace - 05-03-2018
Going to unvote for now.
Granolaman, why did you immediately say Mirdini had a gun though? That’s was pretty interesting. Is that something you knew for sure or was that, like you thought CSJ was doing, a trap to spot bandwagoners
RE: Nostalgfia Day 1 - I don't know the meaning of the word! - a52 - 05-03-2018
Why are we voting for anybody at all when we have absolutely no evidence to go on?

do you have anything else to add to what fun things have been happening today though? even if we wont satisfy the natural and pure lust for bloodshed, surely you can offer opinoins that are words and you cant take back

When your preferred bandwagon collapses and you're determined to tell people how to play, try to force-lynch an ex-accuser; they must be wrong.
Why do you think SF and I are allied scum, other than me disagreeing with your call on them, while simultaneously arguing against their preferred wheat lynch and your personal take on meta.

Nice, getting on that good good Schazer train.
I haven't posted very much today! I should remedy that now that I have a minute free from grading papers. Looks like things are getting serious.
Wheat's up to the usual great Wheat shenanigans, which seems to have rubbed some people the wrong way. I think Wheat is doing a passable job communicating under their (I think) self-imposed dog constraint, so really it's a style issue. Spoids tried to force the issue with a vote, unvoted when satisfied with Wheat's response, and then re-voted for some reason? In general, nothing has leapt out at me as a scum tell, except for people starting to pile on votes without a whole lot of reasoning.
For 3+ votes on people, that points out to me awkwardcarapace, nercania-orccelga, Solaris, Sunspider, Mirdini and uhhh after that I start getting confused about the votals. Everything has been really chaotic in terms of votes, actually.
awkwardcarapace went for Nola because of not liking the Mirdini has a gun joke, which seems like it has now been understood.
nercania-orccelga went for Wheat for reasons??? What were those?
Solaris went for Wheat because "Bored." That doesn't seem great, when Wheat was actually getting close to soft lynch at that point!
Sunspider seems to just really hate the dog gimmick.
Mirdini has/had a "hunch" about Coldblooded. Can you say anything more about that, Mirdini?
Oh good lord there's been so many more posts since I started writing this.
RE: Nostalgfia Day 1 - I don't know the meaning of the word! - seedy - 05-03-2018
wheat, while I also feel leery of lynching someone today (unlike in the days of yore, they cannot simply go play in another game), I don't get why you feel the need to stage a morality play to call people big bullying meanies who aren't as enlightened as you just for trying to play the game
we can just say "it feels better not to lynch someone today," d1 lynches might make people feel left out but I'd hardly say sarcastic theatrics make them feel included
anyways hey mirdini, you've been popping in and giving reads here and there, do you have the time to do anything more...comprehensive? I don't think I've seen you state any opinion about sunspider (or the very cute me), for example
(but if this forum has a function that lets you pull up all of a person's posts in a thread I've forgotten it, so I might have missed something you said in my scanning through)
CSJ is...ehhhhh but might just be scum-passing town we'll see (@CSJ whomst is SF. can we keep the level of nicknames to "one per person")
I haven't mentioned any townreads so I guess I like granola, but that might just be cuz he's saying reasonable things. sol is neutral but I love her so she's town
@a52, we fake it til we make it, we make joke votes until suddenly (through the power of paranoia and the human capability to see patterns in anything) they transform into REAL VOTES and REAL SUSPICIONS
also we can't just wait for inforoles to claim or something we gotta just pressure people and ask lots of questions
