@Bella: right. That's why I used it as an example of the trouble with expecting every newbie to behave like the average newbie. I guess the flip side is that everyone's going to find different things scummy, so in one game you get townread for things and in another you get scumread for the same things.

and yeah, it's a big enough game. flailing about if someone puts you at L-8 is silly. maybe some people do it anyway, but it's still silly.

I think it's unfair to dismiss my suspicions of Bella as an OMGUS purely because she has voted for me. Look at her vote on me: it's very opportunist, and as soon as she drops it, she slithers away from people's suspicions. Speaking very frankly, it's a pain in the arse feeling like you can't provide an opinion on someone because it'll be dismissed out of hand on this basis. I'm also not the first to point out how convenient her vote was.


She didn't slither. That is very misrep's a player big time.

In post 296, lane0168 wrote:@farside, because what I read is in line with how I'm reading her now.

@ricastle... what? why did i think there were more than one faction? Cause I was just thinking the fire water and whatever other one were not teammates. What's the difference why I thought that?


Your going to have to explain more then that.
Sarcasm is just a way of saying how stupid you think someone is but in a more polite way.

I'm not going to have to explain anything. I have my vote on her for reasons I've already specified clearly. I read around a bit and I'm even more satisfied with my Vote. Simple as that.

@plot, that's clearer, thanks.

say Spartan was V/LA?

This is actually starting to sound bad.

Agreed.

I am beginning to think this was a straight up slip. Con is a good lynch candidate for day one IMHO. We really need to hear from Spartan.

Let's say that Conman really slipped. That would imply that they scum together, right? So why would questioning spartan about this have yielded anything but an easy lie?
Can you summarize your reason for keeping your vote on Flubber?

Conman

In post 267, ConManMick wrote:Farside, what was my post 244 if not a provision of reads? I thought I made it clear: I suspect flubber and Bella.
I'm also not sure I understand your issue with me being too "wordy".

So you scumread Flubber and Bella, and have 3 weak townreads?
Who are those townreads? Weak townreads are perfectly okay, because they create discussion, and others can see what you do.

Lane

In post 268, lane0168 wrote:So... quick question. If spartan is replaced. What do we do about con?

I think the 'slip' was a weak reason to wagon him. His response to the pressure is more important.

Bella

In post 273, Bellaphant wrote:
I like(d) the questions Ric was asking and I can see him moving the thread on. Apart from wrong's back and forth, I think he's one of the players that has asked the most pertinent questions to try and 'sort' the game. I dunno if he's at times over aggressive with some of his ideas, but with the amount of absent players we need things moving forwards.

What do you think of Wrong Song thus far?
Coulda gone pro if I hadn't joined the Navy.

I find Ric, Farside, and Plotinus townier than not.
I'm less sure about FA_Q2, Conman, Bella, and Lane, although I consider them to get scummier in that order.
I am worried about the fixation Wrong Song has over Conman's overreaction to his one vote in RVS. That is literally the only claim to content they have.

With people town reading ric, I wonder if he just rubs me the wrong way with his personality.
That happens with me from time to time.

Woah!!! God!!!!... 13 pages already???

I'm really sorry guys... -_-

Well, I've read the thread (from 3-6) and I tried to post my thoughts about it.... but suddenly, duty calls. Anyway, it would be nice to give me your reads up to this point to help me get back on track. I'll be rereading the thread again later today so giving reads will be a LOT of help for me so I can focus on important points only.

If I fail to post tommorow, I would ask for a replacement...

Fair enough Bella, I withdraw my comments.
BBT, have you honestly just jumped on the largest wagon purely on the basis of it being the largest? Granted, only three other players but still, that's a hell of a way to enter a game.
Regards to town reads, I thought I posted them already, lemme check really quick.

Tbh, I suggest a policy lynch of a lurker d1. Town that doesn't contribute should be gotten rid of and if they happen to be maf it's a bonus.

If we go about policy lynching, however, we could potentially put strain on ourselves. It'll make things easier for the scum players if we lynch people for the sake of it rather than actually suspectung them of being scum. Strikes me as a tad counterintuitive.
