Mechanics:
Sample Role PM:
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
Hi TestPlayer,
Spoiler Alert, click show to read:
image goes here.
You are the Title. You are a townie/villager.
Unfortunately your only power is your vote and your voice.
You win when all threats to the village/town are eliminated.
Flavour/Powers are completely randomised. You may claim your Title if you want, it has no alignment or role implication. Do not post your image in thread obviously. You may claim powers, do not quote, paraphrase (I will obviously be very lenient, so don't be scared, just don't quote me or copy word for word).
Factional kill must be carried.
Wincons: Village - You win when all threats to the village/town are eliminated. Wolves - You win when you cannot be prevented from eliminating all threats to the werewolves/mafia. Third Parties - Unknown.

According to my pre-game calculations, it was a mathematical certainty that at least one of myself and GeneralHankerchief would be a wolf in this game. I am a villager, therefore I am left no other choice but to conclude that GeneralHankerchief is indubitably a wolf. Please put your affairs in order and acquiesce yourself to the noose, sir.
Is there really no mobile interface on this forum? :(
(crosspost edit) Posting from smartphones was once held to be one of the surest tells, and this is a game that takes place in a fictitious past, so it is completely in character for me to suspect you, sir.

If El Barto was a villager he would've just voted Insaner here for using a phone without the overwrought explanation.

Just read this post once again and tell me it isn't a joke.
The random number gods require that I vote for Csargo, so vote:Csargo.

Think there might be a phone interface through Tapatalk or something? Or check skins/styles in a dropdown list at the very bottom of the page, the default should be something like "TheGuild" or "STW" or something, idk, it's been like a decade since I've changed skins here.
Barto defense is interesting because "being busier in another game" (which I don't dispute) doesn't stop him from making a funny vote as opposed to talking about his suspicion.
Ah, thank you! Default mobile skin is definitely an improvement.
Could you explain what you mean by "making a funny vote as opposed to talking about his suspicion?"

Barto claims being busy/distracted as a reason why he didn't just drop a vote on you for saying you were going to phonepost (him shading people for that here is NAI; long story)
If we accept this explanation at face value, then think about which takes longer: dropping a simple vote, or posting what he posted instead in response?

But if he had just dropped a naked vote then it wouldn't be funny now would it?
I just don't get why voting me would have to be... opposed... to talking about why i'm suspicious...

It's a meta read, it's not that complicated. He pretty much always will respond to someone mentioning posting on their phone with a "posting from a phone means you're a wolf! Vote: [person]" as a snap reaction.
But here, instead of that he gave a weird over-explanation with no vote and no bite to it. He seems not at ease and more cautious than I'd normally expect, like he's walking on eggshells.

Okay, I see what you mean. But to me his post read like he's pretty self aware about how silly suspecting someone for that is, not an actual suspicion.

Talk to me about why? Seems like he's just kind of easing into the flow of things and trying to dig into something he's not sure about.

it seems like he is pretending to do that while actually being dismissive. I never felt like he was actually that interested in what I was saying, or what you were saying
Calling things town/mafia/scum etc instead of "w*lf/v*llager" etc.
For this I might even forgive you for not having hosted a Pirate Ship game last year.

I'm a really fast typer when I want to be, and posting one-liners on CFC-OT and owning those who would own the libs is a skillset I've been developing.

You don't seem particularly interested in what I'm saying either, lol. I think your read on Barto is bad and I explained to you why I think that.

Barto never posted through all that, so like. As to why I dislike GH's push on Barto while I don't mind yours, that's kinda hard for me to explain. It's mostly just a gut feeling.

...I've been playing with barto for like a decade and my read on him was specifically a meta one. why would you saying "idk it's just a joke i think" have any effect on me. It wasn't a particularly strong objection either, which is why your fixation on it doesn't quite ring true to me. It felt like you were trying to downplay the situation more than objecting to my read?

No, I was in fact disagreeing with your read on Barto from the start. You said that Barto's overexplaining of his suspicion of me without actually voting me was non-committal and scummy. My response was that I don't think Barto was expressing any kind of actual suspicion but was in fact just joking around.

I mean, he was obviously joking around, I've never said otherwise. I've been talking about the way he was joking around. It was a much less directly confrontational style of joking around than usual.
