Epi, would you share your thoughts on speed?

He was my placeholder. I don't really have much of an opinion, especially now that he says he's got heaps of voiceover work. That's not as easy as it sounds.

Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Thu Feb 27, 2020 10:24 am And the other thing is that I feel like Epi should get mad I keep starting sentences with conjunctions but he never does.

Why? It's perfectly acceptable and doesn't impede understanding. I do it all the time.

Teachers have taught kids not to start a sentence with a coordinating conjunction for ages now because little kids (and high school juniors

) tend to speak or write in fragments that start with them. It's lazy instruction.

But that doesn't make starting a complete sentence with them wrong.

juliets is my top civilian read in general.

I mean come on.
I think her approach to this game so far maps closely to what I have seen from her as a civilian in most-recent memory. The ISOs she has provided, for example -- she has made a point lately of trying to add that layer to her game. This isn't the first time she has given it a shot. Indeed, that's why I offered that reassurance that I would check them out. I believe I recall her suggesting in a previous game that she wasn't good at it and/or nobody was reading them, and I want to reinforce the effort positively. I love the addition to juliets' play. I am not surprised to see her struggling to come to hard conclusions from that work given what I [believe I] know about how juliets thinks. She is careful. She takes her time. She weighs every possibility she can think of. I just think it looks authentic.

Separately, Jack touched upon one of the thoughts I withheld previously: it makes a ton of sense for juliets to be wary of Jack. The two of them were the Inception end game, and it worked in his favor to her detriment.

You are right that she is lacking in activity level compared to those recent games, so that is something she should speak to.

Fair enough. That's not worth a vote then. I'll move elsewhere.

@linki am I getting wooshed or is Epi reading poorly

It's a joke. "Other half of Epi" is Eloh.

Eloh isn't even playing.

I'd rather hear why juliets is a civilian to you, JJJ.

Jackofhearts2005 wrote: ↑Wed Feb 26, 2020 11:55 pm I figure Juliets is town for doing several D1 isos and if that’s being too easy on her so be it. I can always reevaluate later.

It's busy work. I sure as hell am not going to go through all of someone's posts before there's a result, and I'm certainly not doing so ending up with, "Yeah, this person is a possibility for my vote."

Uh.

That's very unlike juliets. I'm sorry.

juliets bothers me.

She has 18 total posts. Very few of those posts are interactive questions. Rather, she's done two investigative style posts, one on Jack and half a one on nutella.

That is unnerving, because I'm used to seeing an engaged civilian juliets peppering people with questions and trying to piece things together. All of this feels like busy work. Even the conclusion on Jack is a weasel:

"Jack is very good at being scum. I need to think about and/or get feedback about my points above or other points about Jack but he is a possibility for my vote today."

I'm posting more, and more freely, than I think I could as scum. But hey I'm biased. You're the real expert here.

lol what is this garbage. u bad bro?
Here’s a post between them that’s a baddie sounding post though.
Like “shitshitshit I’m gonna get caught again. Better accuse Jack preemptively.”
Same thing she admitted to wanting to do to me.
That's the opposite of what I said about you lmao. I said I was thinking you might be bad right before you showed up, but then you appeared at that moment and started engaging me so I decided to give you a chance to get involved first.

There seems to be a lot of that going around with you.

I was fine with SVS asking it after they clarified it was NAI curiosity rather than pushing it as a slip, but pushing it as a slip is bad. It’s a fairly generic term and it’s literally in the OP.

And anyone else who may think I’m too serious to be townJack or that I could be wrong or lying about Nutella being mafia, read my interactions with Nutella in that link with the knowledge that I am town and she’s a wolf.

This game is practically a rerun.
I’ve been wrong about jack being town 4/5 times so odds are in my favor that you’re not town on top of I think all this subway sandwiches I’ve been eating are enforcing a healthier lifestyle

My gut wants less jack in my life, jack
That’s not how odds work.

Your gut is wrong. I’m clearly fucking town here and I’m clearly right on Nutella, too.

Is that an adjective or a transitive verb?

Didn't watch it.

I thought Nanook had referred to the alleged joke as his one serious thought/contribution/stance/whatever. He called it his quota of serious mafia terms. This references those dumb words like "equity". Nanook doesn't like to say those words and it seems his present suggestion is that their usage was the joke originally (Nanook correct if needed).

I can at least grant I misunderstood him. Whether it was a joke or not is something else. This lends some contextual humor that hadn't been there in my previous interpretation.
