Mini 1426 - Hell's Bottom

[jeromus]

You've posted 6 times... But I agree, I'd like to hear more from YOLO.

[Elyse]

You just ignored Desperado's whole post.

[jeromus]

*Shrug* He pointed out my obnoxiousness more than my actual play. He's taking the use of images as a scumtell. It's all pretty insignificant and doesn't make a whole bunch of sense. His only game-related criticism was a lack of content, which responding to him does not increase. And so, I am now asking of Qwints who gave me no raisining. Why you do this.

[qwints]

Your high post count combined with a lack of real content is scummy. You're putting very few reads into a lot of words.

Vote jeromus

Im fine going back here. He seems to continually be trying to direct things away from him without really taking any strong stance on it. Again we have apparently some of the lack of content from him be because of the lack of content from YOLO? Who if we are going off lack of content isnt even the scummiest pony out there? Maybe most scapegoaty since a few have called him scum, but it seems a choice more ment to try and create paranoia instead of catch scum.

Really while im still not going to say there is no case for YOLO being scum, jeromus seems to be trying to take the easy one with attacking him for lurking.

[ArcAngel9]

Firstly,

unvote

i have got some pages to catch up for this game.. sorry for being a lousy player, i ll get on to the game in day.. i promise.

I'll post later today with a big catch-up post.

[qwints]

Frequent reactions to some of what happened are much more useful than rare big catch up posts.

YOLO, what do you think of the Jeromus wagon?

[Mr. Flay]

Flay, my posts contain more than what your are saying.

Indeed, but they also contain what I

am

saying - which is to say, fluff. One doesn't build a case on the parts that don't fit... (actually you can, but that way lies accusations of 'wishy-washy').

But who is your top scumread as of now?

You're maybe #4, tops. I just think you're worth keeping a strong eye on.

I need to backread jeromus' older games, but he's a strong candidate for my vote right now, especially after 175. KBW and YOLO are very concerning, but I don't really have enough posts from them to make a strong case (this is the problem with lurkers; see also Yoshi, ArcAngel...). I'm on the fence about Desperado, but he does seem to be trying, and I like his breakdown of jeromus, which no one else had really done at that point.

Frequent reactions to some of what happened are much more useful than rare big catch up posts.

Indeed; I know I missed yesterday, but I only have a few minutes before work this morning. Will reread tomorrow morning and vote.

Your iso is 10x worse than Flay thinks Elyse's is.

That has to be the weirdest chain-accusation I've ever seen...

[YOLO]

@ rolefishing shit

If someone claims for absolutely no reason, I am going to question that claim. I'm actually rather surprised noone else commented on it. There's much to discuss when someone claims. Regarding rolefishing accusations, what's to fish about a claimed role? Are you suggesting my bolding his claim was an attempt to make him 'double claim' or something? Get real.

Unfortunately, there is not much info to gain from that claim because Keybladewielder is an airhead. (No) offense.

Whatever people do to get information is fine, so long as it's actually forwarding the game. "

wait and see what other people do next" (i.e. Blue Yoshi) is not useful. Lurking is not useful. Attacking is useful, so I'll grant you that.

As for why I posted, I was online and it got the game into my topiclist. Usually I'll wait and pounce, as you'll see from older games.

Bub, Rainbow and YOLO

I would like to know what you think of the above bolded.

You mean what I think of that piece of theory? I think it's valid. Passive play is useless, active play is good. But this is rather elementary, so I'm not sure why you're asking.

I'm going to wait on Yolo to contribute before I move my vote anywhere else.

Yet you moved your vote a few posts later for something like 'content free posting'. Is this really such a big scumtell to you that you would contradict your earlier statement?

So I see Jeromus is the newest hype. I don't feel like joining. Jeromus is one of the most active posters in this game and while I agree that he has a low words/content ratio, it's not something I'm very concerned about. In my eperience active players very often receive heat Day 1. They say the most, so there's a good chance they post something that might be interpreted as scummy. Jeromus hasn't done even that, he just hasn't generated much discussion. Not L-2 worthy imo.

So what is vote worthy then? Tough call.
I'm not seeing anything very scummy yet, but I'm surprised about the lack of good stuff from Mr. Flay. When he replaced in, I was quite happy because I assumed we were going to see some amazing moves from him, with him being the site head and long time player and all. But his play so far has been very disappointing. He hasn't done much really.
Rainbowdash reads like Keybladewielders' babysitter. Seriously, half her posts consist of interaction with KBW. Her other content is good though.

Talking about peeps that don't post stuff, ISO this here Quints guy for kicks. Quints, you haven't done much since the start of the game. That's not uncommon, but half your posts are 'other people should post more'. In addition to that, you've voted two players on the basis that they haven't posted much. That's quite ironic coming from you, really.

This is not the big post I intended it to be, but at least I can say that I'll have more time now than I did past week so I'll be active. People that wanted an active YOLO, rejoice!

And I am not the village IDIOT.

That's Flay.

I lol'd in real life.

Waiting for ArcAngel and BlueYoshi to post something with content.

[10506670]

Bomb, Keybladewielder, and Blue Yoshi have been prodded.

Mass prodding!

[Rainbowdash]

Game needs votes from those not voting.

Those votes on jeromus who still continues to avoid posting anything that resembles a strong stance is a good thing. Most of his posts are just complaining about lack of posting from others. Its literally been about a week since we got anything that was a read on somepony. A week. From somepony who is posting a whole lot.

[ArcAngel9]

Waiting for ArcAngel and BlueYoshi to post something with content.

Am here, currently busy in weekends, i will have few reads by tomorrow...

[Desperado]

Desperado's definitely town.

Right back at you. Why are you still voting Flay? Surely you see jeromusscum.

[Bomb]

I apologize to everyone for this but something awful and unexpected has come up and I will have to

/replace out

I'm very very sorry. Good luck everyone.
I will hopefully see some of you down the track in another game.

[10506670]

Finding a replacement for Bomb atm...

[YOLO]

Jeromus, why are you not posting? I can see you've been on site so I'd like to know why you went from posting a lot to not posting at all.

[Keybladewielder]

My apologies for not being active, I haven't had Internet access for a few days.

[jeromus]

It was a general lack of get-go. I'll be doing another re-read and getting a big ol' post off, just like Mum used to make.

I've just been a bit on the busy side this weekend. Content on its way, to inevitably be ruthlessly criticised.

[Blue Yoshi]

UNVOTE:
I apologize for my inactivity and downright bad play, but from here on out I'm going to do my best to improve that. And of course I'll be more active.
That said:

jeromus

:
As far of the way of reads go, he's done a little but not enough to make it look like he's contributing. Following that, he's made many snarky comments, avoided some questions, and hasn't really had the best play. He's even made a lot of posts with not very much content per. #180 does a good job of encapsulating his play to this point.

Leaning Scum

Mr. Flay

Has played good active play, finding things and trying to help the town a lot. The case Bub is putting on him is basically revolving around the first post that he made, where he said that he hasn't been playing for a while and might be bad. The way I see it it's a perfectly natural post to make, and he has been playing a good game since.

Leaning Town

qwints

Various lurky, short posts, though most have content. The fact that he hasn't made extravagant posts or anything with too much content makes it difficult to get a read on him. Though it could just be he's trying to soar under the radar.

Null

ArcAngel9

Has 6 posts, one of which (#44) is legitimate. It's not a bad post, but it could still use more.

Null-Lurker

Blue Yoshi

Hasn't been around much, and has made very sub-par posts. He thinks he's helping stir up activity, but with the current state of the thread, it's obvious he isn't trying very hard. Maybe he should suck it up and start trying harder.

Null-Lurker

Bomb

Was a productive player with good, content filled posts that were albeit short. He is now replacing out, but unless his replacement does something totally insane then he's one of those that is a pretty good slot.

Null-Town

Bub Bidderskins

A very attacking player who posts a lot of content. Though the style of play that he's using makes it seem like he's done this before, so I don't know whether it's because he's town or if it's just his all-around playstyle of why he's attacking like this. His first attack on Flay just seemed really vague. I'm thinking he's town, but I'm still wary.

Null-Townish

Keybladewielder

I...don't need to say anything about this one. Get an avatar plz.

Town-VI

Elyse

Has one of the higher postcounts with a below-average amount of content still. Acts a little bit rude which doesn't help. This is like a jeromus case, though not as severe.

Town-Leaning Scum

Rainbowdash

All the postcount of jeromus and Elyse, but with a lot of good content. Is a really helpful player and consistently shows good involvement in the game. Definitely the best player.

Town

YOLO

Has been a really lurking player (actually only has 5 posts) and even asked someone else why they were lurking. Only one of his 5 posts were really that useful to look at, and it was just a catch-up post that didn't explain much about him.

Desperado

Currently tunneling jeromus, but is doing it in a towny way. Is really involved in the game and deserves to be called town.

Leaning Town

I don't really like writing posts more than 8 lines because then I stop and do something else, which is why I started writing this post 8 hours ago.
I guess this doesn't speak well for the future. I barely even remember all that is in this post.
