Guys, night chat is for shitposting and repairing relationships.
Night chat is for shitposting and blame games for why the previous day went poorly

Well I'm trying to make you widen your tunnel that's firmly on me so you are considering other avenues otherwise once you flip me you are back to day one mode.

So Rumi, if I flip mafia who looks good and who looks bad. Same question but if I flip Town.
That's because you act in obvious ways. For the record if you're mafia, I think Neon is innocent. If you're town, I think Neon could be scum.

I definitely think Byz/snowy might be scum. And Chaqa is town. (but if I'm NKed, assume I changed my mind) Those are the only stances I'm willing to commit to.

Target Locked: They have to go… okay fine it’s one guy, whatever.

That said, if Sabi and Snowy are innocent, I'm personally more inclined to scumread Pyx over the other two. The other two at least felt marginally more participatory than Pyx?

Of course, I'm notoriously bad at reading everyone. Its why I stick to static mysteries like games and books rather than social situations. Why couldn't we all be doing a nice room escape together.
So if Sabi flips town do you tunnel me next?

I just think night chat is one the reasons why we have mid game town apathy.

Not having night chat has helped my own apathy issue. I tend to last two to three game days longer without losing my motivation

I lose interest in a game without night chat

Especially since a lot of other sites have 48 hour night cycles

Most sites are 12 or 24 hour nights lately. Only mafia scum is 48 hours. Because they are weirdos.

Still don't get how this is equal as saying that everybody sucks.

And if I just want to avoid being involved I could have just disappeared, I was really trying to avoid a close EOD to avoid a tie, but the votes started to swap around and I just can't see who was in the lead.

About driving I was hoping to get home before EOD but it took a bit longer, I just say that I was driving because Vecna said I wasn't defending Damo.
It’s not equal to saying that everybody sucks, and I’m not allowed to misquote you anymore so I apologize for restating your premise of not liking wagons in my sarcastically charming way.

I can’t comment on your driving skills but in my country we buy 6 wheeled diesel trucks to drive around big cities so we can coal people who stop at red lights like the assholes they are as we drive by them on the sidewalk. You should try being more assertive like us Americans.
Americans are fucking tame drivers and everyone knows it.
maybe on beta west coast

just recently i got passed in the right hand lane while going 75 in a 55

Anyway I really do hate that we chat during the night. I used to like it before I tried out other sites. I dunno I have been converted. Night time should be used to have breaking from the game and to reflect on it.

I think this is why we have the whole midgame apathy issue because no one takes a mental break from the game.

Just my two cents.
Like all I want to do right now is reread eod and self reflect but have to be present in ngih chat otherwise it's sus.

Anyway this is me being tired and having to take care of two sick parents with covid and myself testing positive for covid for the third time since may.

Sorry for the rant
*hugs* that actually sucks ass. Tbth I wouldn't find it sus if you dipped on night phase. We have night talk in my home forum but people still don't participate in it for the reasons listed I don't think you should be scum read for being a break.

Can you point to some examples of what you mean? Because I only see a pretty normal statement of an early townread from celaph RE: Byz. Your framing strikes me as overstated.
I quoted 3 of the first 10 posts that were very defensive of Byz early that wasn't all of them.
Right, I saw those, I just don’t agree at all lol. They were mild statements of a townread with some justification behind them. I feel like you’re overselling them quite a bit here, but I don’t feel you’re being insincere, so I don’t know if it means anything.
I guess it's possible I'm just wrong in how much stock I'm putting into it yes.

Factually accurate. I've never seen anything above 24 and I'm actively involved in like waaaaay to many mafia communities lol

This one on the other hand seems less well-intentioned. You’ve repeatedly lock cleared Rumi and it’s quite clear that she’s doing her best to solve, and she also clearly nervous about her contributions not being worthwhile. Why so dismissive? You wouldn’t want that done to you, would you?

She is asking Rumi to clarify because Rumi answered if I flip Town then she would think neon is wolf.

In the words of Rumi, why are you white knight ing her?

Don’t play like you don’t clearly understand the demeaning effect of referring to it as a “tunnel,” which is very commonly understood to be an irrational, ill-founded push that ignores exonerating evidence.

I am calling it out because I am starting to notice a pattern of overstatement from Neon that obscures precisely what is happening. It could just be a tendency among young people to exaggerate for effect, but it is also plausibly explained by having an agenda to frame certain behavior in misleading ways. Neon seems like a generally very affable and helpful sort and has unambiguously town cleared Rumi, so it is rather incongruent with my personal impression of her that she would be needlessly dismissive of Rumi’s attempts to work out the game.

First off. Remember what I was saying about deescalation? This isn't that. If you aren't mafia, then you shouldn't want us to be arguing and fighting like this.

Second. I clearly said "could be". I deliberately avoided using the word "is" because Is would be a definitive declaration and that is not one of the stances I commit to.
