if you want a straight shot way of communicating the contested idea: d1 is bullshit and that is an aspect of the game of mafia itself. not of any particular setup, or of the players who play it. mafia is designed in a way that makes d1 bad from a gameplay design standpoint
that being said, i don't know where the various layers of irony are that youre assuming. wanting to say 'bark bark' and draw out absurd scenes because they are funny and could make someone laugh is sincere. youre making pretty uncharitable readings of shitposts on a not-gameplay level and id hope you don't still have a grudge on me from back in the day but if you do id hope you please at least not do that ITT so this game could not have that in it

I don’t really like being branded as “holding a grudge” with all the negative meanie connotations that has. given that in the past you’ve spent entire essays belittling me and my friends for being “serious players,” often in an extremely personal manner, I don’t think it’s unreasonable for me to get my hackles up when you start raising that subject in a coy and easily misread ironic manner. I know that was years ago though, so I’m sorry for not being able to tamp down my emotions better. I might just replace out, idk.

SpoilerI don't know what transpired or any of that, but if there stuff you guys do want to work out still, I'd encourage you to air out between you, so there's no bad blood or whatnot. Also, as long as you aren't uncomfortable, I'd hope you stick around Seedy. Regardless of whether I'm garbage at this game, and at communication in general, I need someone to back me up in hating fun and TAKING MAFIA ENTIRELY SERIOUSLY >:U
To Wheat, there's a lot of ways the game can be fun. Sometimes for me that's trying to read people. Even on Day 1, when all you have are tone and vote behavior, and other snippets. It's still fun to try. And as much of a bummer as being on the receiving end of a Day 1 lynch is... scrambling to defend yourself and not die is it's own kind of fun challenge too. Speaking from my own perspective here.
On the flip side, if I ever get judgy of folks not playing the game or goofing off or whatever, I'm sorry. I know I can get like that. I do enjoy the goofing off too, genuinely. But sometimes I'm a grumpy bitch about things. Feel free to call me out if I get that way, and it's harshing your enjoyment of Da Game.
