would it be against the ongoing games rule if i told everyone how many posts he's had sitewide since the game's started?
The distance between insanity and genius is measured only by success.

no since that is publicly accessible information, as long as you don't discuss content.
i can dig it, plus i'm not feeling my absinthe vote anymore.
Didn't like how you voted No Brainer with the statement "This is scum". Voting him is fine to get explanation and fuel the 1v1, but you just wrote him off.
Since then, you vote TheMan for having a convoluted or unnatural sounding read which I agree with. But you don't like ETL's push even though you understand why he's doing it and even agree with one of his points, because he's pushing your townread? Why you giving Absinthe such a strong townread at this point? And no brainer disagreeing with you, you just dislike him for defending Anti/ETL. Aren't you defending Absinthe the same way?

Sort of the opposite of what I thought about TMWSTW's entrance. He entered the game with a loose upbeat vibe. As I reread and dug a little, I really liked the 1v1 on the player whose entrance was most shaky looking.
Hmm, OK. I felt the whole 1v1 thing was overdone, especially as it doesn't seem like there was any basis for why it happened.
i assumed it was just to get us out of rvs faster. did you suspect it had ulterior motives or something?

I get your issue, but I voted No Brainer because I wanted to see where they wanted to go with the 1 v 1. So as I waited for their explanation I decided to do some analysis of other players, though until No Brainer's plan (which he seems to be actively ignoring questions about) is explained I prefer my vote on him. Even then the verdict is still out on you till you actually explain your meta read, and that won't happen until the plan for the 1 V 1 is dealt with. So I'm waiting for both, but I'm not going to be useless while I do that.
"Kept you waiting, huh?"
For your typing convenience I respond to TMWSTW, The Man, Big Boss, and David Bowie.

No Brainer seems to have dropped the 1v1 so apparently they wanted to go nowhere with it. What do you make of that?

I make that it's bullshit, they apparently got reads off of it but with no explanation, and actively ignoring people it's just scummy. The only real town explanation I can think of for just dropping it is if it was a gambit that failed, but even then they should at least own up to the fact it didn't go anywhere rather then just pretending it didn't happen.

Do you really think that if I was scum here I would just be dodging explaining because I have no reason and don't want to be caught for it?
