I like the RVS stage.
So do I! I learn a lot from the transition from RVS to serious play.

Do you not know my voting tendencies?
What are your voting tendencies? I have 3 games with you - 2 town (one of which you were miller in, which made reactions to you and by you pretty non-predictive) and one scum. I haven't tried to compare this game to the miller game because I don't think it would be a fair comparison.

Where? And since when do I do this?
Here:
Probably something to do with lurker prejudice and attacking anything not moving enough.
If I'm misinterpreting that, then explain what it actually means.
Since when do I like meta?
You commented pretty favorably on my meta analysis of Kaze in the On a Boat game. And also on Empire's meta reads. I almost linked to that, but I do realize that your opinion of meta isn't completely favorable. But, given the above, your rather strongly worded dismissal looks off kilter.

I love how when people meta me, they always use my first completed game to do it (and you played in two other games with me, what's the deal?). And I've had to deal with this
game for the past month. So much apathy.
All of our games together inform my impression of you. But, like I said, I didn't think the miller game was as predictive.
Also, holiday season.
True.
If I was scum, I'd be pushing a mislynch by now. You're not trying hard enough Ffery, and it's making me sad.
In the Cash Cabd game you went along with whatever town wanted to push during the first few days of that game. I commented on how agreeable you seemed. I didn't expect you to play this game exactly the same if you're scum. In some ways your play in this game is more generically scum looking and less like that one. This game you seem much more defensive, like you never got off the back foot.

What do you want from me? You're calling me being defensive over that post, but no one is saying how I was supposed to respond.
No one wants to give you a road map to getting town-read if you're scum. But, there are plenty of hints about what's been missing in your play. it's impossible to post a case without describing what's missing.
Your vote sucks and I'm disappointed in you. Did you draw scum this game?
Read your own ISO and say that again with a straight face.
You had no trouble at all convincing me you were town in the On a Boat game.
