It's IIoA. They say many words, but not much in the end.

More than that, they're doing the Bullets for Bullets tactic I outlined in my scum guide. It feels like the goal of the posts is to be unreadably long and make you skim and say generally "agreeable" things people can't exactly contest without strictly committing anywhere.
@Pawn Lelouch at some point i want your thoughts on this thought in particular
Well for starters I laugh at the idea that the posts were unreadably long and designed to skim when they barely break 2 paragraphs total for the longest ones.

Now the question here is if they actually fall under informative or not. And I know you're going to call me a fence sitter again but I'm conflicted for that aspect.

He has some genuinely good insights in some of the posts, but oftentimes he is posting one to two word answers on if he agree with a post or not without ever explaining why he thinks this. So leaves the thought process blank and let's people just think up a reason and let's our imagination do the work for him as to why he feels this way.

Some of this could absolutely be the clear laziness he felt in some of the later ones showing up, but it's honestly semi-consistent as I am reading through them all.

I town lean read him regardless of this analysis, but in regards to LLD's assertion I think one is flat out wrong and the other one is very much one that depends on perspective. Since it feels like very little to me but I am also a heavy wall poster when I am doing proper analysis so I have a self admitted bias on this front.

While the flat out wrong section is a small ding against LLD imo.
A bit of clarification:

1. The one or two word answers (usually "Okay" or "This exists" or some variant thereof) means I don't find anything of substance in the interaction one way or another, but that I found the interaction noteworthy enough that I should keep it for context and perhaps someone else might spot something.

2. There is no "laziness (I) felt in some of the later ones showing up." I did not do these in alphabetical order. :D

the thing

about when i post things

is that i start arguing with myself in my head

and i started arguing with myself in my head that maybe llds right on epi

and then idk all the offtopic posting and the weird attitude towards the game by all of the syndicate members in a way

its a huge conspiracy

any assertion that this is not the truth, and that it's not intentionally done given the way the quotes were setup feels a bit disingenuous, at best.
there are so many town players who create annoying walls who dont seem self aware of how annoying their walls are to read

epi's quotewalls were like

in the 20th percentile of unreadableness at worst

if it was intentional he couldve made them a lot worse while still having plausible deniability

Hm, what was the ratio of syndicate regular starters to invited players? Since we should probably assume boo is technically town since he took over Spiny's slot.

Since full disclosure that would actually be a hilarious welcome game idea.

Beyond the reason supplied here, I have no idea why Radishes voted Dragomir.
There were 30 players in the game and my time is limited. I paid little attention to drago but I liked who was on his wagon more than who was on 112's. I had wanted a TSP lynch but my fellow TSP voters switched off to Drago.

Also, meta. 112's town game is full of inconsistencies and unexamined read switches. I think their round was poor, and am very willing to entertain them as scum, but I read it as a lack of effort as opposed to a nefarious agenda. Either way, I'd love to see more from them today.
Fair enough.

I guessed 8 because 30/4 = 7.5 and you round up for large games, but that's probably not a unified team. Right now I would be betting ~6 team scum with ~2 independents, given that there were six team members in the movie plus Mal as a 3rd party plus maybe the target as another 3rd party. There could be surprises in there: I for one can't wait for someone to suddenly get hit with a train from out of nowhere
A unified 8 feels like an awful lot for the Syndicate but it’s been a while since I was in a big game so maybe I am misremembering.
The first game I hosted had two mafia teams of six and two independents. :mafia:

That could fit with some of the placements as well in terms of groupings. Nova, Mac, Epi, etc vs the others. Since remember Nova's really horrible vote, how Epi never self presed onto Drago at any point during Eod, etc.

Definitely is interesting how some of them seem divided up based around EOD behavior + vote.

the thing that looks bad on me in regards to the first blurb is that i was absent for eod and left my vote on someone whose flip we don't know.

explanation that i haven't given so far- it's honestly what happened, lol:
i just wasn't in the mood to be on so left for a while and did my own things. the game got into my head and i checked right before eod and saw that i wasn't leading in votes and thought it would be best not to change anything because it'd be a bad look. i understand that might be considered a wolfy mindset, but i figure that even though i'm town, i need to take care of how i look in the thread, and i felt it would've sunk me if i intervened in anything after just ducking out. so that's my confession. :(
Why were you so concerned with what you looked like?

To me, you being absent when you (by your own admission) could have been in the thread raising hell because lynching you would be dumb does not improve my opinion of you.

112: tough to get a read on because there is so much that I clearly missed for there to be a huge wagon. One thing in their favor though is that if they were scum I would expect scum to sacrifice them rather than the Godfather, right? Based on content in this thread so far I am null.

Dom: felt like the civ Dom I have seen before, with more GIFs. I understood where he was coming from eventually. Tentative thumbs up

LLD: not enough content, just a lot of GIFs and complaining. Lean more wolf than not because a wolf would prob be more predisposed toward complaining if their Godfather got lynched but that’s pretty much all I got
the thing that looks bad on me in regards to the first blurb is that i was absent for eod and left my vote on someone whose flip we don't know.

explanation that i haven't given so far- it's honestly what happened, lol:
i just wasn't in the mood to be on so left for a while and did my own things. the game got into my head and i checked right before eod and saw that i wasn't leading in votes and thought it would be best not to change anything because it'd be a bad look. i understand that might be considered a wolfy mindset, but i figure that even though i'm town, i need to take care of how i look in the thread, and i felt it would've sunk me if i intervened in anything after just ducking out. so that's my confession. :(
Why were you so concerned with what you looked like?

To me, you being absent when you (by your own admission) could have been in the thread raising hell because lynching you would be dumb does not improve my opinion of you.
that's ok. i don't really need your opinion of me.

my qualifier scumgame

post giant walls, don't reply to criticism, let everyone assume no scum would ever do that much work?

the appeal to "please save my work" smells deeply of LAMIST to me

"look at all this I've done, don't let it be lost"

did I get pocketed?

Pawn Lelouch give me a second pair of eyes here I'm having a crisis of confidence
I don't know what this means.
Oh I forgot about answering this post. @Evenstar it should be fine, while his vote associatives associatives aren't perfect, generally he's honestly been fairly clean, especially during D1 and this is the type of game where work taking up time should be assumed try as a courtesy. While he could be scum, odds are that he's just town rather than a pocketing scum.

Though depending on if iaafr is right he might have to go eventually. :v

It sparks disagreement or I’ve just been whooshed.
i don't mean ethics=applied science(Will) in the literal sense that it can be reduced to the application of empirically-verified scientific principles of the Will. The Will, by all definitions I know of it, is supposedly outside of the normal laws of cause and effect, and there thereby can't be any science of it in the traditional sense. To say it's an applied science with a literal implication would be nonsense.

I guess I just went through a lot of my life understanding ethics to be in the very theoretical realm; but I've recently been understanding it more as something that must be applied in some way to make any sense of itself. If there is a purpose in studying ethics, it follows that there must be sense in applying it; and there's no other means to apply it than through the application of the Will, no?

iaafr, help me out here.
You post all this, but evade my question with one of your own (that doesn't go anywhere):

Quantity without quality? I made one post for each person. If there were six people I would have made six. On what basis are you criticizing the quality?
is the only thing you disagreed with in that post concerning you?
Yes. With what else is there to disagree?
