I feel that Long Con's most recent strings of posts are desperate, if I am being honest. They reek of wolf that has been caught and it is saying 'anyone but me'.

jess wrote: ↑Thu Jun 20, 2024 7:37 pm @Sloonei - thoughts on darling's recent posts?

Yeah, I am curious too. They were just on and then mysteriously disappeared....

@jess you wolf read @Roxy way more than @Long Con ?

I don't thing long con is as bad as people are making him out to be. He hasn't done anything towny; although he also hasn't done anything wolfy. In my opinion Roxy has, which is why I chose to vote them over long con.

@Sloonei thoughts/feelings on @falcon45ca vote on you?

What was what Roxy did that was wolfy for you, @Cannoticale. I want to understand.

I wonder if wolves are content because they are not leading vote count.

Why did no one bring up Scotty's lack of posting today?

I think I've explained it before, but a quick summary of that is:
Roxy is (probably) avoiding posting
Roxy is intentionally avoiding contributing to the game. When they attempt to, they push out observations rather than conclusions. This is likely an iteration of some sort of being frozen, otherwise known as "unable to post"

Fair.

@Sloonei I can see you are online.

@DarlingMonroe - good question.

i voted for long con because this post felt like an awkward non-sequitur.

i didn't like him dropping a self-defense post with no other contributions, particularly since he wasn't facing that much pressure

[@quote="Long Con" post_id=1119180 time=1718880411 user_id=271]
Wow, so Jess wants to vote for Town. Good to know, top of the list after we all [VOTE: Roxy] aubergine. Cannoticaleis right, she's a little sketchy. Possibly trying to set me up with that "so hard to trust" comment.
[/quote]

i didn't like this post either - the tone felt overly defensiv, and i did not like the way he piggybacked off of cannon's read on roxy

i also wondered why he singled out roxy for "trying to set him up", when i was actively voting for him, and he did not seem to be suspicious of that

i do not agree with his push on DrWilgy, but it at least provoked some form of conversation.

i could nitpick his posts further, but those were the main things from him that i found worrying

By contrast, my read on Roxy is founded entirely on this single post:

Roxy wrote: ↑Wed Jun 19, 2024 7:06 pm A dozen posts since I last was here hope I can keep up lol I think I am the only one that loves low posting games.



Cannoticale vibe about Jess feels like a motherly thing - yah know like you may not have a popsicle bc dinner is 3 hours away type thing. To each their own as I say.

falcon is falconing nicely so far. Did you like October London? I am genuinely curious.

Long Con wrote: ↑Wed Jun 19, 2024 6:28 pm Hellooooooo....... Long Con here, to waft gently into your towniest of vibes, settling into absolute... trust...

Ahhhh....

you are so hard to trust

And my sole reasoning here is that the post Feels Awkward

so, i find Long Con scummier overall, in part because he has given us more to read into.

presently i will say that i don't feel that strongly about anyone being a hit, though. i think it's difficult to find confident scumreads in a mostly quiet gamestate

i will say that i like DarlingMonreo's recent string of posting. i will not be voting for her today.

in spite of my complaints about it being difficult to find scumreads, i have gotten townpings on every player except for Long Con, Roxy, Scotty, and Sloonei

[VOTE: long Con] aubergine

Is the day over or can I still post? Don't wanna break rules.

DM, looks like you decided I was a wolf before I really got into the game. My first few posts were lazy whatevers, and I didn't get into it really until the Wilgy "interesting" tell. You judged me on crap, then handwave my non-crap as "desperate". I'll tell you this at least, I'm not likely to get desperate over a couple of day 1 votes.

you can still post - the day ends at 9:00 EST

DarlingMonroe wrote: ↑Thu Jun 20, 2024 8:05 pm Is the day over or can I still post? Don't wanna break rules.

Another hour I thought.

DarlingMonroe’s re-entry has had some good town energy. Let’s unvote.

with regards to Sloonei, i would simply say:

I thought I read about that in the news.

I have no thoughts on this matter.

do you have any thoughts about the game yet in general then?

It is quite slow. Falcon and you have been the only players to really make ripples. I have run into trouble reading Falcon early in games semi-recently. I would expect nothing less than his call-out of our pleasantries, at least.

I do have a thought that I'm about to share in a separate post though. Get ready.

it feels to me like Sloonei included the bolded section about Falcon to make his post look more substantive than it was.

it is quite a lot of words about Falcon, but it doesn't actually say anything about him

i think it's important to give Sloonei time to get into the game, but i do not see any indications that he is town yet

Long Con has not stood out to me in any way. My default stance in games is usually pro-Long Con. I’m not inclined to vote for him, but then I’m not particularly inclined to vote for anyone right now.

Why should I vote for him?

He hasn't given me town looking for wolf. Just the bare minimum and then deflecting without any real grit. I would hope town Long Con be better than that.

Moreso with every post. She acts like I didn't say anything about Wilgy, and then when I correct her, she goes to cherry-pick a couple of posts where I DON'T discuss why I voted him in order to, I dunno, bust my balls? Make me jump through hoops? What's the next step, circle around to "Look how desperate he is"? Nah.
