Not voting (4): Random Nurse, HighFlyingDwarf, marcistar,
y'all need to do something
You say this, but how much have you done this game? Sure, you've voted, but your votes don't appear to be backed up by much and you really don't have much for content otherwise. Feels a bit hypocritical.
Why do you want votes on Merlyn and Roden?

regarding roden, i don't really have a read on him yet. i'd be interested to hear people's roden thoughts. a lot of his posts are mech stuff (most of which i don't agree with at all, but that's probably nai). i guess i'd like to hear why he voted merlyn in the first place given his poking at her was for posts made after his vote
I voted her because 230 felt weird considering she only had two votes at the time. I wanted to see how Devil reacted to a blank vote, I anticipated a chainsaw but they didn't do that so I felt a little better about them. I didn't move my vote because I feel like Merlyn jumped the gun in calling Marci vs Drew TvT and it seems like she's stalling out having to explain her read.
Also I'm talking about mech a lot because puzzles tickle my brain. I know site meta is to punish mech talk but it's literally just fun to me, and I can talk mech and solve players at the same time. But if I start hyper focusing too much on mech please just tell me, that's all I really need.

Yes I am waiting for Merlyn to explain her a reads a bit more, is weird she can't even when directly asked by multiple people.
Also, if you like the mech stuff, you
Drew
you(I am sure this reference isn't lost on everyone lol). I don't participate, but since I have a hydra partner that does I can be left to my own devices, and as Merlyn put it, pull some strings and see what happens.
Pre Edit: Oh no Penguin, just having some fun. I thought you got I was joking about the mod stuff(topical humor amirite), but I apologize if I wasn't clear enough it was a joke.

I'm pretty sure my stance on votes and d1 play is both consistent and apparent so I won't be answering.
Bad memory, bad reading comprehension, and now doesn't play well with others? No wonder your mod badge was stripped from you.
You seem to have a different view of your play then others see.

Ok sorry then, I mentioned the bad memory and reading comprehension since you brought it up(thought you were making a joke about yourself), and the mod joke was bad timing it seems.
But, the second line was directly game related(to get things back on track), you do seem to be dismissive of the inconsistencies that others perceive in your play. Can't understand why you are engaging with those that feel this way.

You are? How weird, I'm waiting for you to answer MY question and you never did.
I actually am with Roden here, elaborate on your Marci town read please.
Are you asking what I mean by towny confidence, or? I'll quotes the posts I mean if so
I also asked Roden for clarification on this, and didn't get anything back.

Why don't you let me know what you don't understand about it and I'll clarify
I asked for more because, well, let's go back to this read in question:

Marci's confidence strikes me as town, that kind of posting without careful evaluation and reevaluation I see from scum a lot.
This is such a simple statement there's really nothing to not understand here from my point of view. Marci has a way of posting that I think scum find hard to duplicate. I can offer multiple examples of this if you want me to- again, that's why I asked. I also don't think it's premature to start reading folks on a vibe this early in the game.

I don't think Sacrifice is a good idea to use today. I would rather wait until we have a collective POE and we know what we want to do with the money, potentially after some upgrades. If we do use Sacrifice and hit scum, we can use Assassination to get the double kill and don't have to burn money on an Autopsy. That plan is better if we have Trading Outpost though because then we don't give the Insurgence a guaranteed $20k.
- Alianna
I agree with a lot of this, but where are you getting that the 20K goes to the insurgents if we don't get it?
If we hit scum with a Sacrifice, we don't get the $20K bonus and therefore only have $60K to spend the next day. Assassination costs $60K, so if we were to use it to kill the confscum, which would be the most efficient way to use an Assassination due to the lack of flip not mattering, we would only be able to do that one project and setup-specific rule 7 would kick in. Increasing the budget would prevent this problem from happening.
Mind you, we also don't know how much money the Insurgence gets when we do spend it on projects. So idk.
- Alianna
I think I'm understanding that part, including why this plan would be better with Trading Post. But like you just said, we don't know what the 'watch out you might fund the insurgents' thing means, and it sounded to me in the original post like you were saying that if town doesnt get the 20K on the flip for hitting town, that the scum get 20K instead, and I was wondering where you'd gotten that idea
I need someone to tell me if this is me wearing the old tinfoil hat, but was this TMI that Devil Alianna is now ignoring?
