I thought it was not a joke based on your “low information stage” wall.In post 72, Auro wrote:The lilith head I think asked someone about an obvious joke, and the quote I posted is a general rule of thumb.

People who are good cop checks should try to stay off wagons, and people who are bad cop checks (either because they are widely townread or because they are widely scumread and likely to be mislynched anyway) should try to be on wagons.In post 75, Auro wrote:Something_Smart, have you not considered that there is a mechanical reason to want to be on the wagon as town?

Similarly all townies should self-hammer when they're about to be lynched in order to increase the cop pool.

I would like to see more from the acryon slot, I don’t think there’s enough to really make a read yet.
Please correct me if I’m wrong here since my theory skills leave something to be desired - in terms of theory, I think we can’t leave Eve alive when (if) we get to LYLO. I can’t imagine she’ll be the NK unless scum believes her claim, as there’s just enough WIFOM there to produce confusion for us. Not saying she needs to be the lynch today (although I’d be okay with it if we can’t compromise anywhere else), but I do think she needs to be lynched before LYLO. Thoughts?
I’m actually pretty interested in Allomancer as well. He’s only been in thread 3 times and all of those times it was to talk about an “RVS” vote

So it’s a lot harder than I thought it would be to write up posts for this game while on work calls...
@acryon, 170 feels like attempting to show that you’re giving content and then filling in the spaces with insubstantial.... stuff. Even the content parts are insubstantial, like there’s no attempt to gather more info for reads. Re: The part with GL you don’t even seem to be pushing GL more, which I would expect if you were town. The rest of it seems like posting just to look like you’re doing stuff.
Like here’s your post:
- you don’t like GL but don’t actually try to push him or ask questions to try to understand GL’s thoughts
- still on an argument about meta from several pages ago. As GL said, it’s as if you were trying to create a “gotcha!” moment and failed and now feel like you have to defend yourself because someone questioned you on why you did that in the first place
- response to gender mistake
- skitter too dumb? But again, no push resulting from it, like you’re hoping someone else will jump on it instead
- joke about nom voting you but you haven’t questioned or pushed nom, even though nom is voting you based on the same post as GL. Why call out GL but not nom?
- once again, you say GL is wrong but don’t make an attempt to push or understand GL’s motives
- explaining your username
My main question is:how do you feel about nom? She seems to be scumreading you for similar reasons to GL, but why haven’t you addressed that and are focusing on GL’s vote? What is your nom read? Secondarily, why have you not pushed GL further? Or for that matter, skitter?
Overall I feel like you are not attempting to engage others but more waiting for them to engage you. If you’re town, I would expect/like to see more pushing and questioning.
———
I‘m leaning towards town!GL. GL seems to be transparent in his thought process and reasoning, and his thoughts about acryon and skitter mirrored what I was thinking as I read through.
What are people’s thoughts on Auro? I just reread his ISO and there’s less content there than I remember. I like his most recent content a bit more as it seems he’s developing a line of questioning towards GL that (I think?) is trying to understand GL’s thought process, but a lot of his ISO consists of fixating on GL’s usage of the word “paranoid” and questioning us on mechanics. I’d like to hear what other people are thinking here.
I have to confer with my other head but I’d be on board with an acryon lynch today. Like I said, it feels like he’s deliberately keeping his pushes at arm’s length and not engaging with them. Also in terms of the skitter and GL comments he’s been making, I have yet to see a post about either of those slots that is actually directed towards the person he is pushing.
Pedit: alright another post to respond to.
Why do you like Eve? She’s had about 0 actual content this game
What about skitter did you not like? Does this go back to the “too dumb” thing you said in 170? Why do you think what she said is “too dumb”?
Once again, feels like you are trying to have others push GL for you, I don’t see any attempts from you to engage with that slot beyond surface level. Same goes for skitter.
Of course you agree with nom’s 149, she’s defending you!! my questions to you above still stand.

I’m not really seeing the reasoning for town!nom.
I think a big cause of my uncertainty is the lack of push from acryon, who’s defending himself from GL and voting GL for it but didn’t even react/respond to nom’s comments on acryon’s post (which were in line with GL’s comments). The more I think about it, the weirder it seems.

generally I don't like to bus - people will WIFOM their way out of a lot of associatives as long as you are actually engaging with your partner to some degree - and my goal is to make sure all my pushes sound reasonable/genuine.

Yeah, I originally had good feelings about the townbloc, but then I reread your ISO this morning and I'm not as solid in my read on you as I was when you initially townblocced (sp?).

Acryon, your posts are not doing anything to change my mind. I apologize for misremembering the posting order/which post that nom had originally voted you for, but even in the most recent conversation, you were answering questions but not adding anything of substance or asking questions. As I said, I would expect town to be reaching out more and putting out feelers even on D1 - doesn't have to be "making a big case" like you're implying I said (also, way to put words in my mouth, because that is not what I said), but just engaging with others. And I'm not seeing that from you, it feels like you're being super passive in terms of interacting with other players.
@nom, what are your thoughts on acryon after your most recent convo and subsequent pondering? you seem to have backed off of that slot pretty quickly earlier, why was that?

100% agree with this, which makes me feel better about the nom slot as well.In post 211, nomnomnom wrote:according to my own vig-minded scumhunting I would be shooting Allo right now so I should probably VOTE: Allo
This lack of commitment on every single subject so far is concerning and feels like scum who doesn't want to commit to reads just yet.
I'd definitely like to see something from Allomancer that isn't related to stuff from 6 pages ago, given there's been a lot more content than when he last posted. He just picked out a bunch of random and mostly irrelevant pieces of posts from people to respond to. I especially would like to hear thoughts about the GL vs. acryon stuff, given that he seemed to have been defending acryon before and is now shading acryon (and btw, copied my reasoning for said shade). I mean, this also applies to him - makes a post to throw some shade on acryon who is arguably currently getting the most shade in the game, then immediately drops it and doesn't attempt to engage acryon whatsoever. Shade with no bite.
Allomancer, at a minimum I'd like to hear reads from you.
Alas, my other head is apparently MIA so I am claiming my vote rights now.

GuiltyLion rolls up on acryon's house and sees him working in the front by some soil where he's planting seeds. GuiltyLion says "Wow that's a bad garden. You don't even have anything growing." Not only would it be 1) disingenuous and silly to criticize the garden at that stage, it's also 2) possible acryon is planting the seeds exactly right, and itisgoing to be a good garden. I'm less interested in arguing 2), but 1) is why I have an issue with what GL did.

Following up on some questions I never got answers to:
1) @ nom & GLIn post 175, The Limit Does Not Exist wrote:What are people’s thoughts on Auro? I just reread his ISO and there’s less content there than I remember. I like his most recent content a bit more as it seems he’s developing a line of questioning towards GL that (I think?) is trying to understand GL’s thought process, but a lot of his ISO consists of fixating on GL’s usage of the word “paranoid” and questioning us on mechanics. I’d like to hear what other people are thinking here.
@nom, @GL, I'd like to hear from you two regarding your reads on Auro. GL, have your feelings on him changed since the "paranoia" back and forth?In post 189, The Limit Does Not Exist wrote:Yeah, I originally had good feelings about the townbloc, but then I reread your ISO this morning and I'm not as solid in my read on you as I was when you initially townblocced (sp?). So I'm just trying to get a feel for everyone's reads and see where they're at. In particular I think I'd like to hear from GL since he had some misgivings on you in the beginning.
2) @ nom, you also seem to not have interacted with GL directly at all. What are your thoughts on him in general and also specifically regarding him joining the Allomancer wagon?
3) Sorry more questions @ nom...
I'd like to hear your thought progression on acryon as well. Particularly when you first unvoted, and then after you asked him what his vig shot you would be, you said there was a lot more to work with - I'd like to hear what conclusions you drew from that conversation.In post 203, The Limit Does Not Exist wrote:@nom, what are your thoughts on acryon after your most recent convo and subsequent pondering? you seem to have backed off of that slot pretty quickly earlier, why was that?

Sausasaurus, thoughts on the Allomancer wagon?In post 219, SausasaurusRex wrote:Calm down Smarter, there’s no need to prod me yet. It’s been a little longer than I thought it had been, but I’ve not broken any rules. My lurking won’t become a regular thing, I assure you.
In response to Auro’s townbloc, I disagree with Karnage’s placement. He isn’t scummy, but neither is he amazingly towny. I agree with placing Nomnomnom there, however.
I’m townreading both players in TheLimitDoesNotExist, so UNVOTE: . I know it’s ironic for me to say this, but I’d like more content from Eve. Her posts don’t seem very towny, but I’m willing to overlook that as early-game banter if her play gets better. If it does not, I think she is the correct day 1 lynch, unless someone else does something worse.
If anyone has any questions for me, ask and I will answer.

@skitter, these two lines contradict each other (emphasis mine):
In post 230, skitter30 wrote:
well not too scummy to be scum exactly so much as i'm not sure that scum think to respond to that accusation that wayIn post 151, GuiltyLion wrote:I guess in writing this out though it might comes down to differing interpretations of tone.
p-edit: oh you're going the 'too scummy to be scum' route I guess
like if you've accused scum of not scumhunting i think the natural reaction is to go like: 'no i have been scumhunting', or to deflect, but this feels more tongue-in-cheek and a bit more self-aware than that to me
that being said that's kinda like the only line in his iso thus far that i thought was low-key townie
Which is it, acryon only said 1 line that was lowkey townie or he's been lowkey townie throughout multiple posts? Can you explain this contradiction? Presumably you wrote both of these posts after catching up on the whole thread, right?In post 232, skitter30 wrote:@ limit hydra: 170 isn't chock-full of content but it's kinda demonstratinga tone that's been peppering his posts that i think is low-key townie.like he's being ~self-aware / earnest / tongue-in-cheek-y'

Hey @Karnage, I'd like to hear where you're at in this game as well. It seems like you haven't said much since defending acryon and that's honestly all I can find in your ISO since RVS. Do you have any reads? What are you thoughts on the Allomancer wagon?

YES I GOT THE PAGETOP!
This post makes me feel slightly better about Eve I think, but also that's L-1 on Allomancer so preferably I'd like to hear from everyone again, especially Allomancer.In post 241, Eve wrote:
i don't like this post because he's both agreeing i have a mechanical reason as town so it's not scummy but also that i'm shitposting which should mean he knows i was jokingIn post 205, Allomancer wrote:Speaking of pressure, UNVOTE: .
Eve didn't respond to my post, but this made a good point that relieves my initial concerns over Eve. That plus she seems to be just shitposting means there's really not much to read into there.In post 75, Auro wrote:Something_Smart, have you not considered that there is a mechanical reason to want to be on the wagon as town?
To take up a slot that scum could have taken; thus forcing them to stay off of it?
However, given that she's just shitposting, I really would like to see some actual content from her.

Alright bbmolla, since you're in this thread:
- What do you think of the Allomancer wagon?
- What do you think of everyone backing off acryon?
- Any reads, besides your acryon vote?

Hmm okay.In post 254, skitter30 wrote:
no, i was catching up as i was reading and changed my mind as to how much weight i would be giving the tone as i read more of his posts, which is why i unvotedIn post 248, The Limit Does Not Exist wrote:Which is it, acryon only said 1 line that was lowkey townie or he's been lowkey townie throughout multiple posts? Can you explain this contradiction? Presumably you wrote both of these posts after catching up on the whole thread, right?
i'm roughly here:
townie: limit, karnage, maybe acryon maybe auro
not townie: allo, maybe gl, maybe bbmolla
everyone else: not sure yet and/or i don't remember they're in the game
i was thinking of voting allo but i was kinda getting the vibe that if did l-1 eve might lolhammer and don't think we're quite ready for that yet
What are your thoughts on nom slot? You seem to disagree with Auro's reasoning for townreading nom, so are you scumreading her?

well I guess scumreading isn't the right word since you don't have her in your "not townie" pile, but do you have reasons to lean in either direction for nom?

1) Here's my & nom's reasonings in this quote (nom's in the sub-quote):In post 258, BBmolla wrote:- What do you think of the Allomancer wagon?
I fail to see the reasoning for it, did I miss something
- What do you think of everyone backing off acryon?
No idea why
- Any reads, besides your acryon vote?
not really but I'm more someone who gets reads by interacting with people
Rex's catchup post was scummy
2) most people seem to agree that acryon's tone is town-y.In post 213, The Limit Does Not Exist wrote:
100% agree with this, which makes me feel better about the nom slot as well.In post 211, nomnomnom wrote:according to my own vig-minded scumhunting I would be shooting Allo right now so I should probably VOTE: Allo
This lack of commitment on every single subject so far is concerning and feels like scum who doesn't want to commit to reads just yet.
I'd definitely like to see something from Allomancer that isn't related to stuff from 6 pages ago, given there's been a lot more content than when he last posted. He just picked out a bunch of random and mostly irrelevant pieces of posts from people to respond to. I especially would like to hear thoughts about the GL vs. acryon stuff, given that he seemed to have been defending acryon before and is now shading acryon (and btw, copied my reasoning for said shade). I mean, this also applies to him - makes a post to throw some shade on acryon who is arguably currently getting the most shade in the game, then immediately drops it and doesn't attempt to engage acryon whatsoever. Shade with no bite.
3) What about Rex's post seemed scummy to you?
Why's that?In post 260, BBmolla wrote:I don't think Rex and Skitter are scum together

That's interesting. Isn't that something she could fake as scum fairly easily? What makes you think it points to town!nom?In post 262, skitter30 wrote:
i don't have a solid read yet. auro seems to think he's good at reading her, which is why i'd like to hear a bit more about why he's townreading herIn post 257, The Limit Does Not Exist wrote:Hmm okay.
What are your thoughts on nom slot? You seem to disagree with Auro's reasoning for townreading nom, so are you scumreading her?
- Smarter
the one thing that's pointing a bit towards town is the vig-logic thing because i know that that's a mindset she had been thinking of applying towards her towngames
