That full-time mafia chat is going to be a PITA.

I wonder if a way around it is to consolidate in like 3, 4, 5 key blocs...who do you resonate as town with, then vote around that, making sure to avoid the tie.

But then the "vote once"" but you can also Unvote and still be in compliance is CAF.
Is Hamilton having trouble keeping up with two places to post and not posting messages for one audience to the other?

Oh no.

Perhaps we should relieve him of his burden.

##vote ham
Can we just endvote Ham please. He is obvscum.

He's definitely got a pretty weak iso so far. He usually obvtowns under pressure too when he's town so he's got 7 hours

I don't particularly like the lack luster performance from Hamilton Brian, but I also don't particularly like any of the people pushing his wagon.

At least one of damo/bunnygo/flum feels like scum, although I'm still waiting for Dip to explain how he arrived at the conclusion that ghug is powerwolfing

so in summary him being dramatic means nothing and shouldnt be read into at all
I caught him exactly like this about 5 times, so I beg to differ.

The key to reading jamiet for me is reading into whether he is faking his known character traits.

Every time people do what you do and say theres no reading into it. There is, you just gotta know how he likes his plums sucked.
I am sure it is not five. Closer to one.

You've been wrong about me on D1 lots of times, do you remember that also?
Yes, but then it hardly ever continues past the "im just joking and poking" phase.

I dont think ive incorrectly townread you very often.

Also, Vecna is locktown this game. How refreshing.
while im scumreading you?

I thought my reads were always flawless as town :smirk:
I wasn't aware you were.

Practically every post of yours has echoed my thoughts exactly. I think it quite likely we are on the same team.
This would work in your favor, if I had seen you produce and vocalize those opinions before I commited them to the pen myself.

Like, Bunny, while his reads are rather safe, has managed to vocalize all these things as well. And has done so in a timely manner as to be original and authentic in the thoughts if you will.

##Vote Ezio
##Unvote

I have met your requirements.
The bot did not pick this up.

##CALL GM: maybe something for Peter to look at, in case this is an edgecase that the bot isn't handling properly.
Interesting.

Let's see if it picks up just ##Vote Ezio.
Well that worked.

##Unvote

I think we know why food is endvoting me but maybe that's an easy excuse to disguise his scumness?
...and you are endvoting Hamilton because.....?
He screams scum.
He has made six posts.

Which of them "scream" scum, and why?

Alr I'm caught up on the thread again.
New alignment chart:
7x7_blank - with names - Copy.jpg
A few notes:
ghug feels like he is powerwolfing
Bunny seems to be playing as town but is doing it an extremely messy fashion (ChatGPT), so he is Anarchic Good
Hamilton has not made a single good post this game
Fluminator

I'm also going to ##VOTE HAMILTONBRIAN
A question for you dear sir, since you were part of our amazing crew last game.

What so far in KotP's play has caused him to be so exalted among men in your opinion? You feel his play differs?

@bunny please stop it with the role playing shit already. Nobody will read your posts. If you persist I will assume you are scum and act accordingly.
I actually like Bunny’s role playing

What is contraction theory? I have not heard of it.
Bozo once claimed that mafia are less likely to use contractions than town because they think through their posts more. There’s been pretty much no evidence that it’s true but it’s probably one of the funniest things I’ve read in a mafia game here.
Back when I was in college I wrote a neural network that would take in posts and votes from mafia games and attempt to identify mafia based on some natural language processing and cross vote analysis. I imagine it picked up on stuff like contractions, but with neural networks, you never know. I should see if I can dig that back out, it had like 38% accuracy, which when compared to 25% rand was pretty decent.
Reasonably certain this isn't/shouldn't be allowed for use in an ongoing game.
