I think koba’s point holds water, I was also in the townstumps game so I have at least a vague memory of what they’re talking about

Stuff like this where you are approaching players who aren’t playing with full consideration like you expect to get something from them

I’m a bit annoyed at Alisae in particular

Idc about Luka I was just trying to push him but didn’t get an AI response

Having invaded the base that his sister was held at. The seven shadows made quick work of the dastardly cultist. Our hero however managed to...get lost on his way. Somehow he still managed to run into one of the cultist and kill him and save his sister.

Okay, second prod is a bit of a reality check
I'm honestly not sure if that's happened to me before but yeah, real life has been a lot busier over christmas

Need to catch up from where I was and properly determine my scumpile

On one hand we have a lurker who may or may not contribute on later days and an easily sortable good player who is lurking for unknown reasons

On the other hand we have a player with poorly thought out reads and who is unwilling to compromise whose future contributions will invariably disrupt the gamestate and make it difficult to solve

Oh, just to make the reasons known on my lurking it is 100% real life

If there's any meta questions my most recent game was an actual scumgame

General takes here
I think the people making commentary on my meta are poorly informed
I really don't feel like town!Alisae votes me without a confident read
Without going back to look, I think Pooky is playing very similarly to gng upick and that's why I would consider him to be hard town here.
I don't think I have a second interesting enough read in isolation for Klick's request at the present time. 'Interesting' is the qualifier though. Tonight, when I am no longer phoneposting in response to an email ping, I'll make a proper readslist and Klick or anyone else can quiz me on something I guess.
Out of my wagon, I'm confident Klick and Wheme are town and a bit optimistic that STD is town and maybe actually readable, but I've had an eye on Cephrir for basically the whole phase, PP could easily be scum, and I've already mentioned Alisae
I'll put down a vote when I centre myself with a readlist

I think Gamma's posting appearing forced to some people is a known phenomenon as either alignment

your point being? Alisae’s read on me is absolutely trash-tier, he knows it, and is avoiding addressing the real issues by stating “I play on my own time”.
You even said your vote on me would be removed when Alisae said to, so you are the exact reason why that garbage needs to be called out.
Maybe the reason I lack conviction is I have seen Alisae openly play in bad faith so I see getting rid of em as a “cleaning up” measure. Have you tried considering that?
I'll think about this - as I recall there was a town game of yours I read in that recent meta dive where Alisae was the subject of your ire

Town!Alisae is a large asset who will contribute more positively later on than you are giving credit for

That combined with said 'good vibes' makes me resistant to an Alisae push
