I do want you to keep talking to me though, I understand you will leave this alone, but still, please do not just totally abandoned this.

I certainly won't abandon it. I tend to be very sensitive to thread climate, however, and I know that this kind of argument is often bad for it. Even if you are Mafia, many people will see any hint of annoying conflict and either dismiss all of it off-hand or they'll literally stop looking at the game. That should be avoided. So for the time being, I've said my piece about your grievances with me. I wish to see how others interact with that.

If there's something else you want to discuss with me, by all means. Let's do that. For example: do you have an initial impression of the other active players (e.g., Luka and Caitlin)?

Speaking of Jay, he's a great player indeed. I must say he does seem to be townie or at least he passes enough as such but Callahan's read of him is so common and reasonable that Jay erring towards omgus when Jay knows people unfamiliar with him accuses him of such things doesn't sit right with your Gloriousness.

Hi Bob! Have we played together before? I don't recognize your username.

I have seen players accuse me of "Lamist" or whatever, or of "trying too hard". The language of those accusations doesn't tend to feature someone taking a post I made and twisting it into the worst possible interpretation of that post (at least not when the accusation is an honest one). More often the legitimate accusations are that I am stilted or too formal or that kind of thing.

Perhaps I am responding emotionally, but I have also been dealt difficulties in the not-distant past by wolves reading me as wolfy and throwing me off balance.

You are not real YOU ARE NOT REAL WHAT IS THIS?? Why are you trying to drag someone into what we are talking about right now? If you feel like you are responding emotionally, then please take a break from this thread, and come back to me when you have your emotions sorted out.

Now this is a confusing rhetoric my boy. He isn't dragging me in, he's replying to my own shared opinion. You can't be casting declarations of dismay over such things lad.

I'm sorry but having this as the first thing you say to someone, I'm literally flabbergasted, like that is not like I'm just so flabbergasted with what he just said to you

Why is that my dear lad? I don't share the concern.

Okay, we roleplaying here, but I just don't understand that is the first thing you say to someone and your attempt is to drag them into the argument, and for what purpose? Is it because they can't defend themselves on their own, are they looking for support, or are they calling for their partner to help them out? I just have never personally tried to drag someone into an argument I'm having with someone, especially the first thing I said to a person.

Callahan he didn't drag me into anything, he read my comment and is replying to it. Are you okay lad?

It looked like to me he was trying to drag you into it.

Oh okay, got you, I don't want to make you upset at all. I'm just trying to understand things and give my input on things. I noticed Luka and Cait did argue, and you are right about how people dismissed it...because that is literally what I did when I noticed Luka and Cait started arguing, I was like nope, because I think it was over something silly. When I did read Luka, I felt like it was pretty obvious he was trolling, and I think he still is. Cait just seems NAI to me. I think most people are right now because nothing really caught my attention.

To be clear, I am not upset. You're just playing the game regardless of your alignment, and I will always respect that. I am actually not a terribly emotional person, but I still acknowledge that I am human and subject to human biases.

If I recall, you were one of the people that has played with Cait often?

I have played with Cait quite a bit also as it were.

Okay good, because like I don't want you to be upset, that's the last thing I want people to feel when I play with them. I would say I have played with Cait around at least 7 games? But, if you're asking for meta, I cannot tell you, never played with her on forums.

Werd.

My flat read is that I thought Cait seemed authentic in their poking at me earlier for my apparent formality/wording. That's something I recognize from many past first encounters.

Do you have an impression either of Cait in general or of the validity of my viewpoint?

What's her meta? 

Looking back at the past 2 pages of posts,
WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED?? I WAS ONLY GONE FOR 2 HOURS!

I feel like some of the stuff people here have said or done feels extreme, to say the least. An example being Luka supposedly locking in me being town after 3 messages. I don’t really get that… so I feel like it might either be that these people are either just spitballing to try and make it seem like they can tell when they might just be wolf… or they really are that smart, and i’m just dumb. Not sure who out of these people to vote, but some of yall act real weird…

I'm pretty sure Luka is just straight trolling.

Honestly that doesn't sound too outlandish. Luka might actually be super good at seeing who is what, but I feel like how he did it was just kinda rushed. I'm keeping an eye on them... (I have been, they're very active so it's hard not to)

I remain uncertain on Lady Caitlin. My experiences with Caitlin are that she is good at Mafia as both alignments, underrated as both alignments and capable of taking advantage of people who make too easy reads as mafia. The only thing that stands out to me as alignment indicative about her in my experience is sincerity of reads reasoning perhaps being something to keep an eye on as well as WIM level.

Since people ignored it I'll try ask again in a more direct manner.

I thought Bob was a Number's alt, but it seems not. Does anyone remember whose alt it was? Maybe Laurentus'?

He's claimed Mac from MU. I don't know if you have experience there/with him. I've been in a couple hydra games myself (specifically with Mac). 

That does not ring a bell, which is weird
