Micro Normal 1102: ootmgoat [game over!]

[Duelist Kage]

less than 48 hours in but it already feels like today's elimination is a foregone conclusion

how in the hell

This feels like a really fake reaction, given the way Gimli has been acting. He's literally calling me a "textbook lurker" when the game length has barely passed the prod timer. That's a false narrative and if you're town you should be realizing it here, not making excuses for him. This is a highly active game but that doesn't make people who actually have lives and can't spend all day every day writing posts and reading things lurkers. I just spent over 10 hours at work, where my ability to do Mafia things is highly limited and sporadic, so I will need to spend some time catching up on things now as I literally didn't even read all of the pages that happened in that time, let alone have time to process and reply to them.

[Black]

How many times will Gimli get to E-1 and someone unvote quickly

I didn't even see May's vote

If Gimli is scum that's gonna look bad

[KayJayQueue]

I want to Town read Kay. But I'm weary based on last game. Either way I don't think I want her today

You’re the only person I can understand feeling this way and I get it. The only thing that’s going to make you feel better going forward is 1. You’re town here and 2. The game ends and you see I’m town this time.
Basically, I think this game will only be useful to inform you on future games. As it is, you’re going to have a really hard time with me being in this game because you’ll always be slightly scumreading me, especially if you start feeling I’m clearly town.

Kay, forgetting about Gim's.....what is your honest take on a few other slots in the game.....doesn't matter who

I think Dann is town. I’m leaning town on black.
I want to trust Hu but I need more time to see what she does.
I don’t get the sus on kage but I think I was distracted during the time that sus came about so I may be missing something obvious.
May and your slot - null, no idea.
CSF could be anything and I’m still too affected by recent posts to form an unbiased opinion so I want to wait.

I’ve been too focused on Gimli. I can openly admit it. I don’t take back any of my reads on that situation though, tunnel or otherwise. I am very much not enjoying the game because of it and I’m sorry for not having better or more impactful reads to aid town in making the right decision here.

[Gimli]

its kage and may

kay is a townie

peace out

also @kay: sorry for ruining the game for you, it wasn't my intention.

If you haven't read all the pages from the last 10 hours then how do you have such a strong and detailed read on Gimli?

Textbook lurker is perhaps uncharitable, but he wouldn't be the first person this game to feel like the game has lasted ages (relatively speaking, see Dann's push on Black)

I don't see what that has to do with my reaction. We do not share the same sense of game time, probably because Gimli has >100 posts already and has been under pressure most of the time

I think what posts you have written are scummy, activity aside

[Black]

Gimli literally has 70 posts in the last 10 hours

[KayJayQueue]

Maybe the reason Gimli is under so much pressure is directly related to having >100 posts. The one thing I’ll agree on that kage said is that Gimli accused nearly everyone of being scum and town at some point. Throwing reads out like they’re candy doesn’t instill much trust in someone because they’ve shown that come the next page, they’ll have moved onto a different read. It’s hard to work with someone that is that indecisive when every time they give a new read, it feels like it’s with full confidence. I can’t trust that behavior, no matter the alignment.

How do you

not

have such an impression? I read a lot sporadically when I could but definitely lost a few as it was going too fast, but I don't need to have read

every

page to see him constantly skipping from 'solves' of Kage/Kay to Kage/Dann to Kage/Black to Kage/Kay to Kage/May and lord even knows what else.

I have been in your spot more times than I would like to admit lol.....don't be afraid to take a day away from the game, that sometimes can help reset things and let you come back with a fresh outlook on things and help you enjoy yourself some more.

I also need to look at Kage some more, and everytime I see CSF post I am reminded that they are in this game lol

[Cat Scratch Fever]

Ouch!

How this game has played out so far, if I were gone for a day, I could come back to dead chat. And what's worse is I don't even think my death would help town solve anything. Lose, lose scenario.

[Doctor Drew]

Ouch!

Ha!

(just trying to distance between us a bit)

Also, I still haven't skimmed past page 8, so eventually you will wow me with your towniness..........right??

I don't see what that

doesn't

have to do with your reaction. If you think things are set in stone already, and it's not even been 48 hours, shouldn't that be your cue to

slow down

and stop feeding the activity grind? Alignment is not determined based on who can post the most.

And I look forward to finding your explanation on why you think I'm scummy because I'm not sure I've seen it yet. Maybe you were the one who thought I posted fluff because I made a few jokes at the start? Sorry I expected this game and the players to be fun, I guess. You usually are or I wouldn't have signed up.

Do you refer to "town" in third person in town games

Drew, you're gonna be sorry you replaced in here, in spite of the playerlist this is the No Fun Zone

[KayJayQueue]

Sorry I expected this game and the players to be fun, I guess.

My sentiments exactly. And one person I was excited to play with isn’t even here still.

I eagerly await a new updated Kay/Kage read after this.

Ok but like you do know you have to like prioritize alignment over all the other stuff at some juncture this game right

You kinda make the game dysfunctional if you treat "bad is the same as being on the other team!" As part of the game nothing is possible to accomplish

I know you aren't asking me, but I do that as well......but is NAI for me

You think that is something that could be AI?

I don’t even know tbh

I feel like I do but at this point I feel so far removed from the “town” that I don’t feel like anyone is actually on my team here. So if I seem distant it’s because that’s exactly how I feel.
