In post 448, Black wrote: I think scum want to publicly town hunt this game. Like moreso than usual because I feel like the scum teams probably want to coordinate with each other as far as knocking off townies. The problem is townies are going to do this too because it's what townies do. So it might be hard to pinpoint where the noise is coming from but I think we can at least feel good about scum helping town sort
Isn't this a bit contradictory? If both scumteams are sharing genuine townreads, they're just making the PoE worse for them aren't they?

No, I like it as a take: scum are slightly more incentived to find town, especially day one where there's a lot of wiggle room after: they narrow down their Poe to one they are relatively confident with, but know that a) it's day one so it's bound to be a bit wrong b) it's day one so publicly re-assessing, especially after a 'nit their ream' scum slip is fine and c) they should also be doing it knowing that the other team are doing the same thing (which felt significant when I started this sentence)

Also, bkacks town for day one, this wagon is worse thab the bingle one
Do you townread black for agreeing with you on mech or is there something else to this?

Never voting for either of the 'sukas or Firebringer today, barring some wacky developments.
Whenever I've read a Drew post so far I just think "that sure is a Drew post" and then move on with very marginal changes of my perception of him
Probably doesn't help that his most substantial posting has revolved around the signaling stuff and that entire discussion's just went over my head
I think drew feels like town tbh but like conspiracy theory town

I mean re: meuh as I said she made the same argument in a past game (the micro i linked) where she was town and she was right there so idk why she wouldn't go and do the same thing again here

I think bingle is still pretty likely to be scum but like... I don't think my reads have really changed for a while. Idk if that's my fault or if the thread just isn't that interesting right now

Anyway i'm gonna go sleep bye

I just want my posting to become a site meme, like even if someone else posts like me.....'Not sure why Meuh is Drew Posting here' lol.

And I guess Umlaut and I are in each other's whiskey pocket because I also don't get the case on Bingle, clearly I am fine with yeeting Ausuka.....don't feel as great about a Cook compromise though, seems too policy-ish.
The trouble is I never know a Drew Post until I've seen one, so I don't know how to craft one ahead of time. It's basically like that guy on the Supreme Court who said 'I don't know how to define what is pornography but I know it when I see it.'

And I actually agree with you on the Cook thing. I don't understand why she's come up several times, over, say Bella for the same reason.

I was also in that game, and luckily enough I was ISOing Ausuka there when making the cyclical post to make sure I hadn't imagined Ausuka's 1v1 tendency and Ausuka's spiciest early 1v1 in that game was with... Skygazer, which doesn't really click with the idea of Skygazer WKing her :lol:
How did you know what game Skygazer was referring to?
Inference
Meuh, why would you infer that Sky is referring to the game you three were in together if she wasn't white knighting her in that game?
Because
1. I had already brought up this game multiple times so referencing it would make more sense than referring to another game
2. Scum Skygazer/town Ausuka is a specific enough scenario that it narrows down the possibility of it being a different game a lot
3. Skygazer was responding to me, so it'd make sense for him to refer to that game and to explicitly state if he wasn't
4. Pretty sure Skygazer only recently returned to the site and as such wouldn't have an extensive pool of recent games to have WKed Ausuka in
5. very heavily implies that there isn't another game that I'm not aware of
I can't decide if this feels like too much explaining or not

Feel similarly in the sense that the Bingle wagon is made a lot more appealing by the way it's been pushed and who's been pushing it, though I'm more ???? than townleaning

Last game of this sort(technically fire and ice) Bulge was way less present than here. They would kind of pop in to piss of python(which I was doing much the same lol).

This Bulge seems so different, like they turned on try hard mode. It really is pinging me hard in my gut.

Though that could just be the Wendys I just ate.
i was avoiding that game as much as i could for my own sanity's sake, this playerlist is a joy
