Micro 1072: Turf Wars | Game Over

[Oclaxian Empire]

e-2 actually, i can't count

[Aureal]

Aureal just unnanouncedly E-1'd Sky.

Sorry. Was busy and wasn't very focused here and didn't think of that.

This still isn't my preferred vote but I did find it a little weird how now she seems disappointed that I'm apparently not getting wagoned anymore despite being one of the first people to change their mind and say I was seeming towny?

not disappointed you're not being wagoned; just find it sus you went under the radar as soon as the pressure lifted

I don't even know what that means. Was I really supposed to continue and case patch's entire ISO after spending an entire evening getting worked up and doing what I did? In a game where everyone else is basically "IDK why, just bc vibes"? I'm not going to kill myself with effort for a game that doesn't care. I think I've been as active as anyone else. Everyone took a vacation after the Lorne thing.

I tried to get people to pay attention to Kitty being completely doing nothing but nobody really seems to care. I can understand being busy and not posting much but what we do get is useless. "I have no comment" "Lorne was a troll" wooooow, such positions. I know in a small game typically it's not optimal to go for a lurker day one but given the mechanics of this game I'm not sure that really holds true. We literally might not even have a day two.

I'd like people to explain why they are against a Kitty elimination here. Do you think he's being active in the hood?

bc i’m open to shooting kt tonight, and i think ur scummier

[Oclaxian Empire]

we also dont have time to wagon someone else tbh

wasn't this what

i

was doing???

[patchwork]

In actuality I think talking about a massclaim in this setup is scummy. It reeks of trying to act like you are helping without actually helping because a massclaim won't help as there are no PRs and mafia will just claim neighbor.

Yes, I thought it was sooooo incredibly helpful to call for massclaim and to claim a role that everyone knows I don't have because everyone has the same role.

Kitty -town

(How would finding PRs be helpful anyway, except to scum? Isn't this typically why we

don't

massclaim off the bat?)

btw, aureal, when you have time, can we have a readlist? pretty please with a cherry on top?

I'm not typically much for doing this 'readlist' thing but since you asked nicely, in descending order of towniness:

Doctor Drew: leaning town as I feel pretty in sync with his attitude here (no I did not think his saying he "loved" Lorne's TR on patch meant he was saying it was townie), also furtive gave a meta-read that Drew is town and if furtive is scum he's probably not starting off the game with little but a TR on his partner

Oclaxian Empire: I don't agree with all their takes but asks good questions, seems to actually be trying to figure things out

Skygazer: mixed feelings, had to ISO her to even remember anything besides getting thrown off by Drew's sarcastic 'love', I don't love the talk about her neighbor being town and asking about neighbor claiming at the start but I did like the retort to Lorne about being able to change reads

patchwork: uuuuuuuuuuh I'm not nearly as sold on 'overeager town' as everyone else, I'm finding it hard to follow the deluge of posts, and the reaction to furtive's mistake seems like the sort of thing they'd say if scum partnered

Lorne Malvo: I did not like 94, kinda seemed like trying to direct the flow of the game, and the whole conversation about TRing patch to saying not to casually throw out townreads to acting very confident about it reads really oddly- I guess it's a serious read now but for a while there it seemed like some sort of game Lorne was playing

KittyTacky: I don't know where they're coming from with reads that are largely the opposite of how I feel and his reads give me nothing to work with to know why, also it seems kinda scummy the way he reacted to my massclaim joke

furtiveglance: possible scumslip, hasn't been much of a presence (and I kind of expect him to be a presence), and his 125 waffling on Lorne seems like the sort of thing he'd scumread

aureal i would literally retract my vote on you if you provided a single readlist

You want another readlist???? It's hardly changed, though I'm strongly considering moving furtive up and voting Kitty instead. Maybe bump Oc up over Drew.

Drel: I mean, I’m barely reading the game compared to Kori and Grim, but the best I can tell from what I’ve read is you think Furtive scumslipped, and that’s about it. You gave reads when asked for them and that’s about it.

Now, you have been talking with us and Patchwork, and that’s great, but do something *more*. Sell us on your reads. Do something.

So can I just say "vibes" like furtive did to explain his scumread and you'll think that's fine and dandy now? Like, what? I think I've been plenty more substantive than a good few people. Kitty is obviously the non-presence in this game, not me. Sky also seems pretty wishy-washy. Drew hasn't done anything but eye Lorne's townreading of patch, decide that I'm on some Grand Crusade against furtive while you think I'm not even pushing him, and give other reads when requested. furtive has, like I said, not been much of a presence, and even he acknowledged it when he talked about losing two newbie games getting to him. Lorne is obviously playing I Don't Care What You Think style and giving nothing and people seem reasonably accepting of that. Heck, I don't really even know that patch has been very substantive- sure they post a lot but it feels like it's basically all yelling at other people to Do Something and drowning out more thoughtful conversation.

So can we not just VOTE: KittyTacky then? I feel much better about Skygazer than Kitty. Do we have any reason to think he's going to do stuff?

like, hold up, let me look at kt's iso. have they done anything? have they contributed? are they pushing anyone? they're just doing nothing.
lorne, at the least, is pushing aureal, even if they haven't explained why.

Nope, KT is also doing nothing still.

Maybe he's too busy working some incredible solve in the hood pt.

like these r the only posts that mention kitty at all ???

[Aureal]

Wdym, I think that's quite a bit for this game. It's not like he's got some great big ISO to analyze - that's exactly why I think he's lurkscum. Why do you not want to vote KT?

[Oclaxian Empire]

we dont have very long to do so

[Aureal]

Don't really understand that argument, it takes the same amount of people to VOTE: KittyTacky as anyone else.

[Oclaxian Empire]

we need three more people to be around for that before deadline

you havent been "calling attention" to shit....

[Aureal]

It's like one more person in the next sixteen hours? Does the game really seem that dead?

BTW thank you for 852, I really don't like the visceral imagery of patch's terminology.

[Oclaxian Empire]

I’m leaving for V/LA. My vote’s not changing from Aureal.

[KittyTacky]

i don;t know who the optimal hang for today is, i'm honestly just generally unsure
like i tr aureal but sky is right that it's weird how she just disappeared again
obviously i'm gonna give her the benefit of the doubt but like ?!
kt does feel more towny now mostly that they've clarified that they have irl stuff going on but idk i still don't really like their posting style? like a lot of it could be easily fabricated as scum tbh and they haven't been doing much
lorne was bad but also enchant isn't doing much either :/// but at this point i'm just using poe to remove the people i tr and then i'm just left with all the inactive and i't annoying because i know i'm shit at scumhunting but also like ?!?!?!? i should be better than THIS???

dont use hang pls. use elim. anything related to the l-word is banned by the site, including imagery associated with it. kill/elim/yeet/etc. are all fine though. /nm /info

Never heard hang is banned. I used it before and got no complaints. Will try and not use it now ig.

[KittyTacky]

Unless I forget like I often do.

[KittyTacky]

Don't really understand that argument, it takes the same amount of people to VOTE: KittyTacky as anyone else.

Desperation vote.

[Aureal]

The Home Owner's Association found one yard in particular to not be up to standard. The cut was uneven. The decorations were cheap plastic. The shade was off-green. Off-green! It was to no great surprise when the eviction notice arrived, but their neighbour was not expecting the lawnmower to leave with them.

It was clear that the oversight of the Home Owner's Association was not enough to keep everyone safe. During the night, some of the neighbours took it into their own hands (and lawnmowers) to remove those who seemed a threat to the community. When morning came around, grass was cut to the soil, trees were knocked over, and

were carved into the topiary. Suffice it to say the affected home owners had no choice but to leave in shame.
