Laughed at this bc I first read it like I was being portrayed as someone who felt this mounting obligation to continue to make jokes even when I'm all torn up inside, like I was having my "but doctor, I am pagliacci moment"

Garlic bread has to be one of the biggest profit makers for takeaway pizza companies. I mean, I've never actually worked at one, but their pizzas actually look and taste pretty unique and the garlic bread is just the same kind of thing you get frozen at a supermarket and they charge you the price of a full meal at McDonalds for it. The portion sizes also aren't great. I mean, to be fair, Domino's does a really nice garlic bread pizza, but 1) it's *tiny* for how much they charge you, and 2) I feel like they do just put frozen wedges from the supermarket in the oven.

Ok I know I like to self deprecate by talking about how useless i am and so on but I do actually think the last several pages are an information gold mine for the discerning reader. And I like to think I've had a key role in that through my generative controversy. Perhaps this is my niche. I'm cutting myself off from posting now

Alisae has yet to give any actual reasoning to want me dead and is holding onto it like a security blanket so she doesn't actually have to play the game.

In case it's not clear, dear gamer, it is that time where we have arrived at VP starts wrangling votes on the actually scummy people.

My preference is that we lim Ali today, who is skimming by this game in a scummy way. If you want me to case that out, I can, but you can also just click "isolate users, check mark Alisae" and be AMAZED

Shea - I'm never sure if I'm just reading Shea in a positive light just because of how much I like him as a person, or because that's how he's playing in games. And I'm aware this is a weak spot, but here we are. That being said, while you started out by saying that you wanted to lurk and chill more, I'm missing some of that very pointed directed questioning you do a lot in games. That isn't to say you aren't questioning people on things they say and giving your thoughts to them, but there's usually a different force to them that I'm not seeing here. But I don't think it's AI, might just be Tired:tm:
If anything I'm generally more pointed as scum.

I have just enjoyed floating around this game after the marathon of TM and my other obligations right now being much larger than this one.

I've enjoyed the vibes of this game tbh and part of that IS hellbooks posting but what do I know maybe they're secretly toxic vibes and I've just been dying this whole time because of the toxic vibe fumes and all of you are trying to warn me but its too late.

Why shouldn't we trust hellbrooks? I think her most recent posting is probably a little AtE, but it doesn't read as deceptive to me.

I think hellbrooks is being set up as mislim bait a bit, and I'm kind of surprised you're not more skeptical of that given that's exactly what we just did in Datisi's game.

I'll case it out a little later today I think. I've been bust covering a big court trial this week, but that's in a holding pattern until a verdict comes, so I think I have time.

more serious answer: that was mostly just a joke referring to the toxic fumes thing. i'm not sure if it was an obvious enough joke for me to start screaming "nsg tell!! nsg tell!!"

who do you think is trying to set up hellbooks for a miselim? i'm not sure how you can be that confident about hellbooks town and it feels kinda white knighty. as i've said before i'm pretty "Not Sure" about her at the moment

I saw you say like,

-you meta dived him and then changed from town to scum
-your interaction with him was good
-as opposed to me, his stuff is not unsubstantiated nonsense

I feel like youre still barely breaching like 5% depth unless I missed something but I genuinely looked

But maybe that worry is a bit overblown because i don't think they've been super aggressive about bringing people over to what they're pushing, just extremely loud about saying what they think

In post 315, Thestatusquo wrote: What I'm town reading is more the energy and vibe of real frustrating that I am picking up that people are not scumhunting more proactively.

I don't think trying to force people to play in your style is like inherently townie or anything but I think that the vibes that are being put forth by gb are town in that regard because I think the mood of "feeling frustrated because people aren't helping you catch scum" is a pretty hard thing to convincingly fake.
first shea post ive liked I feel better about him
