Song Contest U-Pick - GAME OVER

[morph the cat]

Chain sawing means both are scum.

I thought chainsawing meant attacking a town player who's attacking your scumbuddy

They are weak reasons. They are very old meta weak reasons.

Ok. So, I'm right?

His reads are pretty close to where yours are, but no town read?

Nope.

FoS scumbuddy, vote town isn't something that excites me all that much.

What drew your vote?

[50 Shades of Purple]

Generic town town town.

[50 Shades of Purple]

Ohhhhn nevermind

[50 Shades of Purple]

I mean that is how you invite people into your townbloc, you town read them, not mebbe town and then you negotiate with them

[morph the cat]

why isn't caled higher in the high town sphere since I was so dumb in voting them morph

The first group is what I consider my townbloc. Players I'd want to agree with or have consensus with. Caled hasn't put nearly enough into the game for me to care if she's voting with me.

I didn't get that since you put caled in the mebbe category

I mean if you think I am being dumb with a vote on some1 who you think is town shouldn't the town person be in you town category regardless of a bloc and not mebbe

I'll work on my labeling.

I really didn't like the vote. And I really don't like her level of activity. But, her first post felt like a town tell that was being misinterpreted as a scum tell and I did NOT expect you to interpret it as a scum tell. It's the kind of town tell that you have helped me see more clearly, so thinking that was a vote you put down was a big flag to me.

The strength of my overall read several pages down the road is a different animal.

[50 Shades of Purple]

All hiraki has done is pseudo policy lynch, which I naturally don't really like.

You didn't like caled vote on us? Why?

[50 Shades of Purple]

Oh sweet goat of the black woods with a thousand young, will you give me a break?

What I referred to was this:

I want to hear from desp before a proceed. Never been a fan of someone fighting someone else's arguement for them.

I read it as "I want to hear from Desp before I proceed [because I agree with him, thereby disagreeing with you, but I want to see what he has to say to you before I weigh in on this issue, because I have] Never been a fan of someone fighting someone else's argument for them."

See what I'm getting at, now?

And

excuse

me for jumping on the first the best case I see when I think something is legitimately scummy, and

I need a way to get into this game

. I mean, yes, I didn't mention Fish before - because, as you all just said, I haven't been bloody

saying

much of anything! Ooh, yeah, I jump onto a case without prior mention of a person - Yes, I have ten posts, including this one! Ooh, I jump onto a case right after it appears - Yes, because right now is when I need to get into the freaking game, and I've made it explicit that I'm still trying to find my feet, and there are a bunch of posters here that I legit can't read yet, so I'm working with what has been going on in the last couple of pages! Of course I am!

And seriously, reading into my fucking figure of speech, because I used a freaking "we"? Okay, let's break this down, grade school level English, and look at the sentence:

we're not all as comfortable with this many experienced folks yet.

If we want to make it entirely explicit what we're talking about, the full sentence would be "we're not all as comfortable with this many experienced folks yet as you, my detractors, are." The 'we', then, clearly refers to the people who aren't comfortable with it. Namely, me, though I surmise that the same is the case for the recently much-maligned Caledfwitch. I am discussing the group of players in this game as a single unit, then splitting them into two groups, namely the people who

are

comfortable with it, and those who aren't. I then proceed to place myself in the latter group. Is that sufficiently clear?

And ex-fucking-cuse me, but seriously? Five votes in two pages for this? Are you kidding me?

</rant>

Now, I'd like to grow to not suck at this game, which I evidently do 'cause I get five votes in two pages, but by the gods below, give me a chance.

What don't you like from Maenara? Why do you think #400 comes from scum?

[pieceofpecanpie]

Holy shit... 5 pages of quote spamming and single line thoughts from 50 Shades and morph. Any chance you could like collect multiple thoughts into the one post and just link/edit quotes instead of keeping massive quote walls? Jesus...

[morph the cat]

You didn't like caled vote on us? Why?

It was OMGUSy feeling.

You know, chances are I would have just told you guys that you were being stupid with the caled vote if I had been around at the time mollie posted it. But, reading through after the fact and seeing the wagon look like it might become a thing focused my attention and made me think about situations where I've seen you go after easy mislynches. If I had realized the vote was put down by Mollie, those particular concerns wouldn't have applied in the first place and it would have mostly just been a note to see if the wagon still needed dismantling.

[notscience]

Nachomollie and cabdffery who are we going to be voting

I could potentially vote Porkens, Pasch, Spyrex, PoPP, caled, TBone, Hiraki

It could be a style/personality thing. It looked like a whole lot of words that basically boiled down to "what the hell is wrong with you, give me a chance to get my head into the game."

Which in light of the last couple pages, I sympathize with now more than I did at the time I read it.

[notscience]

Right now we have 4 votes to whatever wagon we want (assuming Generic's srs about his proxy to me)

[50 Shades of Purple]

Do you think those two are town?

[morph the cat]

Which two?

[notscience]

Hi guys I'm just going to talk to myself in between your posts if that's alright

[50 Shades of Purple]

Do you think those two are town?

Notscience, was talking to you about morph.

[pieceofpecanpie]

@notscience's #889

I lol'd.

[50 Shades of Purple]

I will talk to you notty

[morph the cat]

Hi guys I'm just going to talk to myself in between your posts if that's alright

We kinda have to work through a few things before we talk about who to vote.

Cabd and I in particular. I hoped we'd be able to work through some ISOs tonight. We'll see.

[50 Shades of Purple]

VOTE: morph

[morph the cat]

Fuck it.

I'm taking a break.

[50 Shades of Purple]

I might be getting there too.

[Desperado]

Five bucks says that was just one of mollie/nacho impersonating the other.

[Agent Minnesota]

Nachomollie and cabdffery who are we going to be voting

I could potentially vote Porkens, Pasch, Spyrex, PoPP, caled, TBone, Hiraki

Why did we drop of this?

[morph the cat]

I would never have thought that we could go on for however many hours and wind up with you still misreading me. I have an idea how burnt out I am. It's not that burnt out. So I don't think the disconnect is all on my side. But I am burnt out enough that I can't figure out how to bridge the gap.
