1. Don't like his reaction to what you said, don't like how he considers me 'obvious mafia', don't really feel like he understands how D1 works and also the value of the vote.
2. Belittling my only ability is pretty amusing, along with the classic 'I'll zone out and let others do the work while I pick this up later'. The work in this non PR game is discussion. Using my vote to bring forward discussion is pro-town. I don't like what he's just done.
3. I feel like you're doing the usual, which is being aggressive, forward, and baiting people for reactions in order to form reads on them. Still though, you want to lynch me and you haven't actually given a reason why, so you're here in the list.
4. Crimson had me completely in Woof 2 as town, and for that reason I'm being quite weary of him just now, in case he pulls the wool over my eyes again.

Will do.
as opposed to liking you wanting to lynch me with no reason at all?
Okay.

I feel these "next 4 lynch" lists could easily be co-opted by scum to help them make a "next night target" list.
I'm not going to hide my feelings on who I want to lynch, but I'm not going to just put them in a nice convenient list. Not yet anyway.

That's...
interesting. Indeed I placed a vote on Royal. But I'm going to need you to significantly expand your reasoning for placing one. Are you simply copying me, or do you have some unique thoughts?
Next night target list? It's not like the scum is going to hunt for PR's, and this is "list of people who you would have checked, if you were a cop".
(I have seen that idea used once... and obviously the scum figured out the cop by next night).
First of all my of pc just crashed so I'm going mobile for 10 minutes. And I was worried that I was giving that impression, I wasn't trying to copy you. Flush's post came off as not wanting to be involved in early game talk. That's why. this is feeling very similar to Star Wars, oh well.

It isn't about scum using the lists to hunt PR.
Unless the scum team has reason to fear someone, they can get safer kills by targeting people nobody is suspicious of.

Top 4 lists does seem like a bit of a waste of time especially when it's essentially RNG at this point. I get that it's getting people to say something, but I can't really see us getting anything from them, and scum can basically put whoever they like on them without any real consequence. especially looking at reasons some other people have given.
it amounts to basically scum reads or are you saying you would be unwilling to compile a list of those?
Part of why participation is a necessity here. If it's not about Traitors staying under the radar, it's about inactive Crew getting killed and us learning pretty much nothing from it.
Sure and I said as much in regards to first impressions, but not everybody played with everybody and so on, so others could me tales as long as my ass and I wouldn't be able to verify it. It seems like an avenue easy to manipulate. But well... that's maybe a matter of a later day. Jut sayin =)
Who I would lynch the next four days?
Fake edit: Had a list written up but will keep it close for the time being as Corn & Kawl made some good points. But a lways ready to pull it up, so there's that.
Especially on Day One we have to get as much mileage as we can possibly can and scum killing one of a dozen won't suddenly trap us, or make us any more confused as we were before anyway. Mhm.

I have to admit, I'm not overly happy about redhood's posts. His constant emphasis on him being town strikes me as a bit of a red flag.
Just got fun. Things can change, but currently this thread has 20% more posts
Well, they pressured each other, what did you expect? Heh.
The game just started, I doubt anyone's reads are bulletproof at this point.

...yea I was gonna go back and quote that and eat my crow. But I definitely misjudged haha.
Yeah, if we're posting early reads, the one person that actually stands out to me right now is redhood56.
- Unprovoked claims of being town. Their very first post is outright claiming they're town:
- Defensive reaction disguised as silliness to a single vote.
This doesn't mean much, but it's another unnecessary response when no one else was freaking out at themselves being voted on yet.
maybe you should review exactly the things he says and when he says them and evaluate their utility on that front rather than a general idea of "he is saying things that I generally agree with"

Yes. Not directly. I won't hide who I think is scum but I'm not going to hand it out in a listicle.
While I completely understand your suspicion of me, i knew immediately after I posted the are you in was a dumb move that looked bad. And the people saying that I was loyal to squidy since he called me town also looks bad on me, but i am not loyal to anyone right now. And about the traube post, it was just a silly joke. But I am a townie.
I'll assume Ouro and Splintz are inactivty/quietness related (correct me if I'm wrong)
What tickles you about Flux?
I put Burbeting on my fourth spot...
... so I have him in sight. But since we won't have players being town "for sure" etc. and we could get anybody at any day without much severe risk (opposed to any other day) (role loss etc.) I wouldn't advise to target him Day One. That - obviously - necessitates that everybody keeps their head straight going forward which is easier said than done, heh.
The vote started out as a lark, he was the first person to post at the start of the day. His reaction of self vote was certainly curious. The content of his post I don't objectively disagree with but it seems a little odd to lead with to me. It's probably nothing but it's also strange that he capitalized "Traitors" in his first post. Ynnny does mention them but the way Flux puts it is like a proper name to our scum group.
Thanks. I disagree with the capitalized Traitors, since the win condition specifically calls out Traitors, it's not a big stretch to assume that's what they're called in a game that will most likely have no neutrals.
ninja edit didnt see your response

I'll make a note and say I don't think it is a problem if some people post read lists. I just feel it should be a minority of people.

Just a note for the future. I will not generally be available Tues-Sat between 6:30am-3:30pm EST. Work and such.
oh god, you're in this game?
Given that it's only been 2.5 hours since D1 started, there's not a hell of a lot to go off of. That's not to say that the posts so far won't be useful in the future, so much that it's not necessarily much to make a snap decision about yet.
I see that people are posting reads lists, which, ok, go for it. I'm going to hold off until we get closer to the end of D1 so I can put together all of my thoughts on each player in one post. For now, just some quick thoughts:
Splinter is usually pretty active but has been quiet, but as I myself had something in real life(tm) to attend to, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt for now.
Corn has said some strange things, but he's done that both as town and scum before, so I'm not leaning either way just yet.
Squidy, Burb, and Mazre are acting as I expected so far.
Cabot voted for me, and I'd expect nothing less from someone who regularly threatens me in Steam chat. <3
A few of the players here I've not played with (karu, Kawl, etc.), so I'll have to see what they are capable of for now.
