Is it just me or do a lot of things in this game just seem...weird? Unexpected? Pokemon mafia was the first game that I didn't die kind of early in that I had a chance to actually actively play, so the majority of my reference comes from there, but...a lot of things just seem different. I think Meta and Mas are the only real constants here in my eyes, but I'm admittedly rather bad at reading both of them.
Shidoshi early claiming like this doesn't seem characteristic.
Luv is both playing the same as last game and different at the same time, if that makes sense? Most of Luv's posts are the same emotional/nonsensical things as last game, and I'm inclined to believe they're scum because of that. But I'm hesitant because I still don't know if that's completely accurate; honestly it could just be Luv naturally not really knowing what to do/say. And there are some posts that seem like they're trying a bit harder than they did last game? Which isn't really indicative of anything, but it's different. I agree with Polantaris in saying that behavior like this would normally be a death sentence for a player. And in this case it probably should be. Maybe it's just the cautious side of me holding me back here.
Meow's playing very similarly to last game. But based on the posts they've Pineappled and admitting to trying to lay low, it makes me think there's more to it than that. I'm not really sure what they're trying to go for, really.
Admittedly, Olsi's survivalism on day 1 is nothing new. I'm pretty sure he's done it before in past games too. But his intentions are aligning with Luv's, to an extent, and I don't trust that.
I've already said Verrkol's comments on shidoshi's claim felt odd. I still don't quite understand that whole thing.
Polantaris seemed very similar to how they played last game. Active, reasonable, somewhat cautious. But that last post looked like he was channeling Kyra or something and I didn't expect that from them. I fully agree with most of what they said, but that post is kind of the reason I wanted to make this post and point out what I thought felt weird to me.
Salguod and CJ I'm still pretty clueless on.
Niernen I don't know well enough to say much on either, but the longer posts I don't think I would necessarily expect either?
Again, a lot of this could just stem from misconceptions on my part. And I'm not saying these differences are necessarily indicative of anything scummy (unless I explicitly stated so); I'm still trying to figure that part out. I just felt like a lot of this game has been throwing me off a bit.
I'll wrap up my final thoughts for the day and probably vote in the next few hours.
