I’ll get to this after I’m done with work 830 EST

Sorry folks
No matter how high the stakes, sooner or later you're just gonna have to go with your gut.
And maybe, just maybe, that'll take you right where you were supposed to be.

Yeeeah, you're certainly an interesting player. I really really wanted to butt heads with you, but unfortunately life kinda pushed me to a tough position and it was getting to the point where I'd either have to keep catching up and giving a subpar performance or replace out.
So I kinda had to choose replacing out. It wasnt fair to Ariane to have a partner who couldn't really talk as much. Especially since it was her first scum game and I wanted to be a better lead
Sorry guys :c

Also my rvs question in the beginning was referencing this. It was NIA for anyone think I really was trying to push the game state forward for towncred. I was just genuinely curious and was trying to be outside the game for a sec xD

With you taking center stage most of the game, calling out your willingness to jump to conclusions and rash nature/outspokenness would just be kinda fun to work you up. Especially if it caused you to vote me. I'm kinda cruel like that sometimes

Nah, I wouldn't have voted you. I was convinced implosion was scum and you two weren't scum together.

I've don't think people are scum just because they're annoying.

Both players in newbies "trying out RQS" as scum. It's not NAI to me at all.

Also the timing of your RQS was especially bad as we had already left RVS when I said Short was cop and people starting sorting us based on that.

Geez, lynched day one eh?
Guess the moral of the story is rqs is scummy

And it was hot off the heels of shota and your debate about PRs. So I literally picked up where I left off, rather than diving into what's been established. Not to mention half the player base hasn't even posted yet

I had you as scum when you didn't play the reindeer games of RVs. It's a thing with me.

Sorry this took me a bit to get to.

I honestly don't have a whole ton of feedback as a whole; this was IMO a pretty exceptional crop of newbies in that you all were consistently contributing, reasoning and engaging with each other in mostly the right ways, etc.

Broxul did a great job staying cool under pressure and continuing to contribute, and I think that it ultimately made the result of d1 a lot better than it otherwise would have been. Ariane did a pretty good job with the situation she had to work with. I don't really have any very specific criticisms of anyone's play this game, tbh, though I'm happy to answer any questions anyone has~
shortaru wrote:I'd appreciate any input you have on my play, implosion, and Cheeky.
I'm not really sure why you chose to go for a gambit here (if it was just for the sake of cheekiness then etc) but do be warned there is ultimately a significant chunk of the player base that will be annoyed with gambits.

Overall I think you sort of displayed a tendency to get caught up on little things a lot (with me, with stan, etc) although I imagine your actual opinions are mostly more subtle than you're letting on, which is fine; but if not, then basically just don't get caught up over things that don't really have scum motivation behind them. Basically I think you're possibly focusing too much on trying to catch scum making explicit mistakes (which are relatively uncommon), rather than more nuanced ways in which particular stances or arguments or phrasings might be given more often by scum than by town. When you give something that is basically a reaction test, although it's a good idea to have a general idea of what you're looking for, it's a bad idea to say "if they reply with explicit opinion Y, they're town, if explicit opinion Z, they're scum" without any other consideration.

But I mean overall you're active and engage with people and those are basically the only things important other than not being an asshole (which I think you're probably fine on). Some people will have issue with how much you post but you're not really fluffposting so.

I like to nitpick at the little things to see where the conversation goes.

90% of the time, my apparent suspicion/accusations are fabricated because I want to see where everybody stands before tipping my hand.
