@pisskop: Do you value reaction-testing more than studying the content of people's posts in regard to your own findings/questions?
Tiruin, what do you think of The Soldier's play thus far? Does it match your experience of him being town?
Him posting? Yeah it does. The fact that he's posting gives me the idea that he may be town :v
Sarcasm aside: I can't judge by superficial value. I usually undergo a rather...thorough study of one's communication or by observing it done with others to judge a person in Mafia. What I think of his play is that he's a rather nice player to play with. A normal person: astute, clever and with a capable mindset.
What do you think of him? Why do you ask me what I think of him and/or a specific note of him being
town?
What can you learn from what your first post was meant to do?
Why do you use such specific terminology such as 'bandwagon' and make it a verb, applying it to yourself?
*Why do you ask me a rhetorical question when in being such a state: It is the post's essence (the post order does not matter) or the details within it that matters.
My RVS post was just that. At best a poke, at worst a gaffe. Did you find it particularly disturbing? Do you expect mafia to try to hide in non-content rather than offer up a vague question and comment?
I don't know if I follow the third statement. It seems that you expect every post to contain content. Is this correct? What are you looking for in the first post of the game? Do all first posts of your game contain that?
I'm not getting you. Please expound?
I was merely offering up my opinion. Were I one of two mafia in a game of 9 I would ignore my partner in the early game, addressing a weaker post of theirs later. So although its clear my playstyle is alien here, I feel it is likely that for fear of making an early association one of the mafia was hanging back a little, letting more meat separate the two.
...Alien? That's not alien. It's blatant.
Blatant to me due to the matter that I've been exposed to tracing and backtracking of connections and leads in any kind of setting which requires interpersonal inspection.
Query on that matter: Why are you posting in brevity?I don't know if I follow the third statement. It seems that you expect every post to contain content. Is this correct? What are you looking for in the first post of the game? Do all first posts of your game contain that?
Eh? 'My' game? This is our game, silly. :v I don't own Mafia (or anyone GM'ing it).
And yes. Yes I quite do expect every post to be
pertinent, rather than just contain 'content'. What I'm looking for in the first post is: "Nothing much, just something to talk about".
...And I've no idea what 'that' is.
Bandwagon is an action. You bandwagon somebody, as a group. I used it as a verb because it is a verb.
You do know that the usage of 'bandwagon' here is as defined in the original context, right? Not benevolent or neutral in the least, it shows people just 'hopping on' for superficial or nebulous reasons--malevolent, in my eyes, because it doesn't show thought behind why the action is committed, and in regard to alignments and such, a very poor move for Town because they're not upholding their wincon (and its approach) properly unless a motive is given or if scum, a move that is hard to differentiate only in subtle detail.
tl;dr: Terminology. See the differences.
