Hoo boy. You really haven't played with him before because this really does seem to just be describing his play style. I assume the "emotion" you refer to is his energetic way of engaging with things. His inconsistency definitely can (frustratingly) show up as town when he's not got a lot of time and isn't even reading properly. I don't know who
has
detailed opinions on this game yet other than on the mechanics, it's basically been a lot of mechanics discussion and not much else up until now.

And that seems rather backwards to me. Things are pretty null because of a dearth of alignment-related interactions. What good does confirming a slot's alignment do without much interaction about it?

aureal

drew
town? if not, what is your perception of them voicing their rebuke of the elimination?

Okay I agree
This puts a bad taste in my mouth because I feel like this both rewards
Wheme
for acting rashly and that these townreads are likely not all uninformed.
I disagree because:
1. A read is not a "reward", it's what I think about a person. This is like saying that if somebody who's known for high-efforting as scum plays a low-effort game I'm "rewarding" them for low effort by townreading them. It's silly.
2. Why do you think it's informed? I mean I don't have meta on scum!Wheme so maybe I'm wrong, but to me it seems very unlikely that scum!them would act with such rash / goofy behavior in a way that draws a lot of attention. How is that not a valid read?
i found 2 to be rhetorical on a second glance but i could see an alternative perspective

this was after my response to his prompt, which is the main ping i had with this slot

i also tend to scumread promises that arent kept

plenty, i found a lot of the reaction related to the flash elimination on
dragon
to be AI for quite a few slots, and several counter-thoughts i have on these slots will be further cemented by knowing
dragons

i think i was pretty trigger happy because i just dislike waiting for replacements but that might have been unwise, i think the more appropriate stance i had with
dragons
ISO was that it pinged me in several places and i couldnt resolve that, and didnt want to leave a read that felt muddied to me

also, i already had multiple townreads by the time i posed my instinct of flipping
dragon
, so it aligned with a potential solve

normally, id likely voice an interest in considering multiple eliminations, but i have reason to play differently, so im unlikely to vote again today unless im very confident in a solve

if this is a situation where we can do multiple eliminations i might actually have the ability to reset it
sort of
but it is not something i would be able to do more than once

in a situation where we can queue up multiple eliminations in the same day which
to be fair i am not sure we are in that situation
depleting my boss bar will have an effect that prevents any other eliminations from happening that day if i understood my role correctly
i would rather not explain further but that is the important bit

needless to say we would want to be sure someone is town before doing that
