Hi, All VLA as it’s the weekend, I see this has picked up, so will read it tomorrow night and get my thoughts down. Had a quick skim and seen at least one question to me about THS. Back to watching rugby and drinking special
beverages…. Cheers all

[DragonEater70]

BlackStar (IDK why I keep calling you DarkStar in my head), do you still feel Wiz is posting like in his scumgame?

[Naerys]

What about you?

Well... this feels like buddying scum
this post feels so off

How?

It feels like " look how i am working with town to catch the scum", attempt to get some info and position urself into town reads

[BlackStar]

I'm not sure :/

Smiley and THS I was scumreading at some point as well as OWER, but none of these are as strong right now as they were.

I think I want to see more posts from all three of them honestly.

Why are you scumreading these two?

Pedit: I don't really agree Naerys :/

The posts THS made asking Wartortle if he had previous experience felt kind of pointless to me. One of Watortle’s first posts was him mentioning that he was used to shorter days, so I didn’t get why THS was asking if he’d played before after that. It just seemed like fluff posting to me

The only post he’s made so far where he took a stance on something was when he brought up the perspective that OutworldER was scummy.

Smileydude just gives me a weird vibe so far

It’s too early to be sure about it, but he seemed to just sit on the fence a lot and not claim to scum read anyone unless a lot of other people had already expressed a scum read on that person in that game. He seems more proactive here so far, so I have a slight town lean on him

I just want to know what he’s thinking lol

[AnimatedWiz]

I am… still unsure about you, DragonEater, but you’ve risen in my reads some with your answers.

I genuinely feel like we are misunderstanding each other some. For example, I thought you saying you wete openwolfing meant you were planning to take charge and lead the town (and that you have to be scum to openwolf), which is apparently not what you meant by that? I might honestly not know the correct definition for the term, though.

However, you do bring up a fair point that it’s not the fairest of me to scumread you for having somewhat, uh, inconsistent reads, because it’s not like I have the strongest ones either.

Also, for reference, both THS and OWER are null reads for me—I have found little evidence to condemn either, but I’m not opposed to y’all pressuring them to get us more info. I didn’t really say anything about that argument because I didn’t have many original thoughts to add, aside from that the push on THS isn’t backed by convincing arguments.

Back from closing shift and catching up. The interactions on page 6 with DE are giving me a pretty solid TR on Wiz right now. Actively solving and to me at least it feels like he's a genuinely uninformed party, something I'm not sure I can explain why I feel that way beyond a general vibes thing.

Nothing has jumped out to me as particularly scummy since my last vote so I'm happy keeping on THS here since his response to Wartortle wasn't great. I'm still not huge on DE, I feel like despite committing to pressuring Wiz a lot of his posts are softballs, though I admit that may just be the nature of how early it is in the game. Also not a huge fan of Python, they point out Naerys vote on the THS wagon but I feel like their own vote they made their isn't much better, really haven't been a fan of any of their votes past RVS tbh.

[DragonEater70]

@BlackStar - I've been getting the same weird vibes from SD1, but Python and THS are saying he's town so :shrug:

@Ani - when I say "openwolf" I mean "play in an intentionally scummy way, without making any effort to appear towny". Usually that term is indeed applied to mafia, but it can be applied to town as well.


Anyway I really wanna read more about your meta, because your playstyle here is quite hard for me to objectively read, I feel. I will do that tomorrow.

@OWER - can see your viewpoint.

Thanks for clarifying!

[AnimatedWiz]

Hm… I would like to say that I trust Naerys right now. I don’t necessarily agree with reading Blackstar’s posts as trying to buddy up, but I don’t feel like she’s trying to mislead us when saying how she views the interaction.

I was just waiting in the wings for a scum to hop on my bandwagon fot a dumb af reason and here it is.

Again, I'm VLA until Monday

[OutWorldER]

"Hop on the bandwagon"? BlackStar doesn't even have a vote down as of right now (which admittedly bothers me despite him having SR's on two people both of which he could reasonably place a vote down on). Incredibly defensive, my confidence in a THS vote only increases.

[heipizhu4]

Ooops, just notice the prod timer is running out, so prod dodge and I'll catch up tomorrow.

[heipizhu4]

Slight tl DE and Wiz I guess? Still, I've got some wierd guts on them (but probably the wierd guts come from my 2 am brain lol)

I've been accused of being scum in almost every town game I've played on here and my scum games, nobody suspected me. You can't read me brah, but I'm tired of explaining these dumb reasons away. Of course I didn't mean hop on the bandwagon in a literal way. I meant it as a euphemism. What next dumb reasons do you want to bring up?

VOTE: THS

Go ahead, do it. Idc

[Dannflor]

Enchant replaces blackbear.

[AnimatedWiz]

So THS is at E-3, currently.

If I wanted to join your wagon, I would’ve joined it. The game has barely started, so it’s silly to expect anyone to have strong reasons for their feelings yet

This rage and frustration seems like an overreaction, but it also feels genuine.

[BlackStar]

I always mess up quotes lol

[BlackStar]

VOTE: Smiley

This feels like the right move

[DragonEater70]

Enchant replaces blackbear.

THS please unvote, I don't want day ending early.
