Well, we're at least going in the right direction here.Vivax wrote: ↑Fri Sep 25, 2026 5:18 pmMight just end up voting with people I currently think are town (jess, nut, gims). Michelle to a weak extent.
Reconsidering if I should keep my TR on pyxxy.
NicoleAD kinda nothingburger to me.
A few townreads, stuff I think makes you votable. But there‘s lots of nothingburger apart from that.
That he has nuanced towny thoughts rather than say, perhaps trying to point out a "contradiction" in order to have something to push, like wolves are more likely to do?leetic wrote: ↑Fri Sep 25, 2026 7:04 pmWTF is this post?

Anyway still catching up
Does participation have to come in the form of reading everything I missed? Because that's unlikely to happen any time soon.Duelist Mirage wrote: ↑Fri Sep 25, 2026 8:16 pmWell that's not terribly helpful.When do you expect to participate?
Have you read the whole game now? You said you were catching up...
You are correct I have no memory of this, but notedGoSpursGo wrote: ↑Fri Sep 25, 2026 7:52 pmRemember how JJJ told us in our last game that he often goes for low posters on d1?
nvm you were co-modding with me, so you almost certainly didn't read that. But he did.
Anyways, I'm making a conscious effort to evaluate the low-posters a little more on d1 rather than helltunneling a high-poster that sees the world differently than me, and I felt leetic's posts seemed a little opportunistic and scummy.
It shouldn't vibe negatively, I think this is gims settling into his townplay, albeit with somewhat lower activity than might be typical or desiredGoSpursGo wrote: ↑Fri Sep 25, 2026 7:32 pmNothing that wise about gims. My first impression of them was towny because they were snapping off reads and trying to get engagement. More recently they've been calling everyone scummy and talking about sheeping and such, which is just kinda vibing negatively with me. Not seriously considering voting there but keeping an eye on them going forward to see if they can bring the energy they started the game with back.leetic wrote: ↑Fri Sep 25, 2026 7:26 pmDo you have any more insight on gims?

Don't want to continue too much on this train of thought since I know it's an easy way to get confbiased but the last time I played a game here like half the wolves outed themselves by going after me for no reason
I agree with your gims point though

Helltunneling a high poster at least gives us more to work with than doing the same to someone who just voted once and maybe dropped a read on another player. I haven't seen a lot of boldness in your reads thus far, so I'd like to see that you aren't just hiding behind pushing a low poster hereGoSpursGo wrote: ↑Fri Sep 25, 2026 7:52 pmRemember how JJJ told us in our last game that he often goes for low posters on d1?

I guess this is a decent looking post but it's the only thing of note in the entire ISOPorscha wrote: ↑Thu Sep 24, 2026 6:18 pm everybody is kind of melting together in my brain
I love nicole but I worry she is wolf just from like the silly gif when she wasn't townread which is not a good reason but I don't have much else rn anyway lol
thought whoever i was talking to about multi ball was kinda wolfy for suggesting there may be multiball which is why I responded to that post
I didnt get my answer cuz I didn't really ask directly enough thru my roleplay but, my concern was that it was brought up cuz they thought the person who scumread me was like, wolf, but also I was wolf, but for ?? reason they didn't assume it was w/w interaction
however the other person asked more directly and I suppose the answer provided that the idear came from the stark contrast of tone difference perhaps playing into the read due to potential multiball is like. good
Why on earth would you expect boldness to equate with towniness? Is that what you're hoping your vote on Scotty looks like?

But even if I accepted the premise, in this case there has been ample discussion surrounding your slot where I think a reasonable amount could be concluded based on you flipping even if it's green.

"So are you doing x to get townread?" Is a loaded ass rhetorical question
"I think you should flip cause theres things we can CONCLUDE even If youre town" is a pretty bad take imo, theres nothing to CONCLUDE from a goddamn townflip other than we sucked at flipping scum instead
no it isn't really supposed to do anything in particularDuelist Mirage wrote: ↑Fri Sep 25, 2026 7:49 pmIs she? Now she seems... IDK snippier than I recall, lol. I guess I'm not entirely unbiased here but I'm not very impressed by her contribution thus far.
i was genuinely thinking of randomly pressure voting rondo before pyxxy beat me to it
Well now I'm really confused, is that supposed to do anything other than make him still do nothing here and then later get mad about how people kinda wanted him to do something sooner?
Dont omgus me I just explained why the post is bad, voting me for it wont make it any betterGoSpursGo wrote: ↑Fri Sep 25, 2026 8:44 pm[VOTE: gims] auberginegims wrote: ↑Fri Sep 25, 2026 8:43 pm Boldness does relate to townyness

Yes I'm asking rhetorical questions of the player I'm actively voting and scum-reading.
I did not say the last line. I'm saying it in specific relation to his counter-idea of helltunneling a high poster. OF COURSE I'm voting where I think scum may be, but considering what information we would get in the case of a town flip is a reasonable consideration, particularly on day 1.
Not sure if we just strongly disagree or if your post is in bad faith. But I'm just annoyed to be the top poster, and the first player to put a vote on the board, and the player who has probably voted most frequently, and I'm giving some town-reads, and I'm still getting accused on not being "bold enough," whatever that means.

So yeah, maybe. That could be a tell. Other than that it looks like she was only able to be here for about 15 minutes.
