[Gypyx]

VOTE: Laplacian let's fucking gooooooo

[Hu Tao]

No. Lap is town 100%

[Gamma Emerald]

No. Lap is town 100%

Now I know you’re capping. There is zero reason you should be townreading that ISO

[Laplacian]

Honestly I've been lurking on the thread a couple of times and it seems nothing actually happened those two past days (a lot of the posts are the Clap - Gamma argument that kinda bored me)

will re-read with more attention later, but for now

VOTE: Laplacian

What’s that vote for Lucca? From what I’ve seen you’ve disliked his early posting but never really explained why. Whereas you had explained why you disliked mine.

Also there did happen something with the Delta/Hu Tao situation around Gammas potential E-1, even if for some reason I seem to be the only player finding that noteworthy at all. Any thoughts on that perhaps?

Because his catch-up post is the most generic, 'go with the flow' readslist I have ever seen. I also don't really get the Hu Tao townread from him. It seems like a fake read to me
Saying he's "open to vote" the three most suspected slots on the game while scumreading the fourth most suspected slot and applying no pressure? It's not a town mindset

What's your opinion on the post? @559

I said I hadn't had time to do a deep dive, which I thought was clear by "vaguely keeping up" in the post you don't even bother to quote so that is hidden.

None of these are new to my list btw. I was prodding gamma earlier about the towncore, clearly had suspicions of both delta and upward, and hopped on the margot train early when it started. No shit I'm down to vote the most sus slots int he game

because they're the most sus slots in the game

. I had null read on you earlier, but now I see why people put you in their scumpool.

VOTE: Lucca

[Hu Tao]

No. Lap is town 100%

Now I know you’re capping. There is zero reason you should be townreading that ISO

So am I scum then if I'm lying?

VOTE: Lucca

So you're voting for me (a null read), instead of Gamma, who also voted for you and you were scumreading?

[Laplacian]

You’re misunderstanding the meaning of what I did
I wasn’t just trying to join your pair, I was trying to take the pairs of me + gypyx and you + FD and weld them together

We had like 20 pages of people, me included, phrasing your welding together as building a four player town block / towncore. Why did it take so long for you to clarify this?

[Hu Tao]

Just his vibe is town. I don't think scum has his vibe

[Gamma Emerald]

No. Lap is town 100%

Now I know you’re capping. There is zero reason you should be townreading that ISO

So am I scum then if I'm lying?

Are admitting you don’t have a valid reason to TR Lap?

Both y'all are voteworthy but I'm finally at a computer to deep dive. We'll see where it ends up once I'm done reading and checking votecounts

Because Hu Tao is the only one who is so self-involved to think it’s about her block with FD specifically

[Laplacian]

I live! Event over, wife won a silver and a gold in her divisions. Been vaguely keeping up, will effortpost later when at a computer and not phone posting from an uber.

Until then, happy to vote Gamma, Delta, Margot

Will not vote HT, Gypyx

Can be persuaded on everyone else

your limpool is gross, it’s basically every viable vote at this moment.

Upward would be on there too, but I really dont want to lim a newbie day 1

Now that’s just silly isn’t it? While I’d appreciate it to get to play more, I think you must naturally consider voting me if I really appear suspicious to you. Or is there something other than pity behind that thought process?

Would like to hear your case here.

From the opening post:

Have fun - This is not an option. Games are only good when players are having fun. If you are not having fun, replace out. There is no shame in this. I have no problem with it. You are not a bad person. Both you and the game will be happier for it.

Getting nuked day 1 as a newbie sucks and it's a good way to have people not stick around and play more. If you're above that, cool, more power to you, but I generally make it a policy to not vote them day 1 without egregious circumstances.

And this is a genuine question, not idle curiosity. You dropped some chess references earlier. What is your Elo rating?

[Hu Tao]

No. Lap is town 100%

Now I know you’re capping. There is zero reason you should be townreading that ISO

So am I scum then if I'm lying?

Are admitting you don’t have a valid reason to TR Lap?

I looked at his newbie game where he was town. He seems the same. As a new player I don't think he'd be the same as scum here.

wtf? Source is I've been curbstomped in games before and just peaced out instead of learning. Isn't just a mafia rule, it's a good rule for all games. Do you want a notarized transcript of my friends trying to get me to league?

Hell, this is game design 101, make sure the first experience is good before people funnel out. It's the reason fortnite gives you an easy win vs bots when you first sign up. It's the reason every single mobile games tracks retention and tries to max the 1-week numbers.

[Gamma Emerald]

I think if someone can’t handle getting voted out D1 as a newb, they might not have think enough skin for this game.

[DeltaWave]

Is this the kind of thing where you know Lap is town, Lap gets eliminated, and then you try to gain townpoints as a result?

My Elo? Hahaha I don’t have any. I just play it rarely and extremely casually. I’m out of book on move 2. Which doesn’t matter though since my opponents are usually out of book move 1. The reason that I’m somewhat familiar with the concepts I mentioned is that I watched a couple chess games from the WM and the commentary was incredibly informative. No comparison to football or the like.

I’d be interested in knowing why you wanted to know this.

That said, I’m a bit disappointed to hear that it’s really just pity. I had hoped there would have been a better explanation.

Newbies have the same chance of being scum as everyone else. Unless the town no-elims, which is really rare on D1, someone has to go. There's no particular reason why newbies should have any additional protection. Just try to have fun with it.

[DeltaWave]

From what I can tell, Lap's big sin is that he gave a low-effort read list and then OMGUS'ed Lucca. Is that the case against him?

I'm also gluttonous, which I've been informed is one of the top 7 sins

[Claptastik]

Huh, a sudden push on the lowest activity slot in the game. That's not sus at all. This makes me feel better about the gamma and margot wagons, and worse about gypyx.

That's a wasted vote. Vote gamma.

The also have the same chance of being town as everyone else. I'll crunch numbers later, but I'm pretty sure ignoring a newbie for day 1 votes cancels out the odds
