Had to check. Been away enough that i wouldnt be surprised if NM became an alt for a few players or something.

On that note

NM, get here and work with me. Who is bad? And why? I am not used to you posting so little.
NM has a bit of a flakey reputation lately, and trolly too if he was more ... normal playing in the past haha. that being said he's like 10x flakier as scum.

I will say when he tries and doesn't just shitpost (which usually only happens when people just write him off 100%) he has really decent reads tho which I'm guessing you know which is why you care

will say its likely there will crop up better d1 candidates as they are content heavy and removing content producers is always bad for gamestate even if you think they're "scum trying to control things'

protip: you can just, not listen to them, crazy concept :scream:
It depends. Sometimes if you know X is scum but he is affecting enough people, taking immedite action is critical. Other times, it can wait. There is no real "true" answer i suppose.
ya but in my experience the "im paranoid X is controlling the gamestate as scum" is just reactive paranoia for the sake of paranoia because someone is posting a lot LOL thus why the disclaimer.

NM has always been a bit trolly, but also used to be more active and had good reads. Plus I could usually trust him.

A bit of a shame, but I get how things can be. Been there.

He usually puts a more genuine effort in when i'm in a game with him from what I have seen, probably because, crazy, not being dismissed by at least 1 player helps care about trying, and I've been saying this xD

kinda lightly confbiasing my DE read bc of him actually bc of it

So I just went and skimmed over Guillotina's ISOs in two completed towngames (1, 2 and I disagree. Yes they are slightly idiosyncratic (aren't we all?) but their playstyle there GREATLY differs from their shitpushing and heavily tunneling that they are exhibiting here.

I got no interest in making this phase last longer than it needs to.

Prolonging the game creates apathy in town to the point of just settling for anything out of boredom.

The phases are 14 days but we dont have to use them. Dragon is obvious scum, let's yeet them out of existence so we can go on the night to do some spicy actions, i myself cant wait for it.
Geez, yeah no need to make this day phase a month long (please don't modkill me for this) but I think we can afford like at least 7-8 days of discussion before settling on a lim? Like what's the hurry to eliminate so fucking early?

Could you link an example of such case or point me in the direction of one?
@Koba btw would help if you do link this since I get the feeling you are trying to be diplomatic and as you said "explain everyone's idiosyncrasies to each other"

I have 0 clue what you're talking about, I didn't freeze at all

I did decide to take a break from the game between post 155 and post 166 because I was tired of being the only one posting (and it's actually sad that there were only 10 posts during this 2 hour break), but I don't feel like I really stopped posting or froze or lost my WIM? Maybe I did become a little defensive but that's like a natural reaction for me when I get shitpushed, because it's important to me to refute the attacks on me.

Honestly I don't feel that how Koba pushed patch is very logical and I know Koba as a logical person so my gut says this is scummy.

Which doesn't really advance the game in any way except as an attempt to trip up patch and make them look scummy

Pages 13-14 don't feel real to me

Like idk if this makes sense cause obviously they'd been posted, but they kinda feel lacking in real content almost like it's an attempt to inflate the thread rather than actually play the game.

Flavor is town, ZZZX might be town, CCS is prob town and I think Itinerants are also town.

patch idk about, their read on me is clearly fake but at the same time they don't feel scummy.

I still think Guillo and Koba are scum.

Don't have reads on the rest.

DE, you are about to be taught a lesson about why as scum you do not push town!koba because I will take your piss poor arguments and put you in your place.

I know how townies push me.

I know how scum push me.

Generally scum latch onto specific things that townies never do and you're going for those things rn.

Only a couple more arguments missing but its exciting that you decided to scumclaim!
