Micro 834 : Vanilla 8-Ball : Game Over

[Jingle]

I think he's largely concerned about how everyone sees him, which is probably NAI given how D1 went. I'd like him to be more aggressive about sorting, but he's not my focus atm.

Why?

Still waiting on this answer, Relly.

Because everyone, myself included, posted and answer to your question and then just *waited* for you to do your thing. I’m not saying it was your intent to slow the game, but I am saying that it seems to have had that effect anyway.

There were 7 posts between Day start and my question, which was a period of just over 24 hours. The following hour had 8 content related posts.

FA seems to have flaked AND is ignoring the questioning in the first place.

Saudade hasn't posted at all since before I asked, and that was to call me scummy for being busy.

You haven't answered the question I addressed to you at the beginning of that post.

D1 was also full of lurk.

If anything, I have been introducing content, and calling a horse an irrelephant does not make it so, even if you paint it grey.

[Irrelephant11]

You have been introducing content, yes. I’m not shading you or blaming you, I’m just explaining why I used the words “game solve thing” - because I know I’ve been sorta waiting on your analaysis of our answers to really *get into* this game day, so (maybe I’m projecting but) I feel like others might be too; indeed, their activity suggests as much, though I could be wrong.

Yeah okay being paranoid of Jingle might be a good idea but not right now

I thought Gamma’s idea was towny in a vacuum - not letting scum take advantage of our reads to lynch the 8-ball seems like a good idea, if it’s possible. Given only a single flip, I’m not sure it is possible, really, but I had a hard time seeing scum come up with “let’s all scratch our reads and start over” as an entrance to D2, unless most suspicion was already on the two scum (even then, it’s a bold thing to say)

[Jingle]

You are by definition shading and blaming me. The question is whether you're doing it as scum or town, not whether you intended it to be shade and blame.

Eh. To me it seems like exactly the thing scum would say, because it doesn't really mean anything.

Basically, he entered the thread saying "Hey guys, we should reevaluate after that guy we all thought was scum flipped town." Even ignoring the setup, that's what you should always do in a mafia game. And also, he hasn't done so. If he was town, he had 48 hours to consider who he now thought was scummy. Instead of presenting a new person to suspect, he said 'everyone should reevaluate'.

[Saudade]

sup boys tl;dr
what did i miss
is jingle still a scummy fucking I.T robot

[Saudade]

ill be here for the next few hours so like if someone wants to dance now is your chance

I don’t disagree that it’s not a strong reason to townread him
But I’m struggling to find strong townreads this game, especially given how this game day has just kinda... not happened yet...
Even nsg has had a pretty substandard entrance to this game day and is inexplicably upset about a mislynch that imo doesn’t deserve that much emotion (D1 mislynches being basically par for the course); I expected her to go after CJ this gameday or have some exciting new thoughts, and long story short I’m barely townreading even her at this point. So I’ll townread Gamma for his entrance, see where that gets me. Do you scumread Gamma? Why?

& you’re right, I’m not *trying* to shade or blame you, and in fact I hope that by saying “I’m not shading or blaming you” people won’t read my posts and come out of them with a scumread on you. I’m mostly reserving judgment on your slot this game day until your theory comes through. I townread your activity + amount of content but have a hard time seeing past your insistence on seeing my actions in the worst possible light most of this game. So I’ll let your theory take center stage in my read

[Saudade]

A little bit of Monica, in my life
A little bit of Erica, by my side
A little bit of Rita is all I need

[Irrelephant11]

Saudade has ARRIVED

Why is Jingle’s tone scum-indicative? Couldn’t it just be him being kind of a mechanical thinker?

[Saudade]

You are right but you'd expect him to be at least upset that I scum read him for what might be his natural tone
alas maybe he knows deep down that I'm correct and accepts it with.. his usual mechanical robot mindset

[Jingle]

Gamma is a tough read for me, but he's >rand scum.

NSG/FA townreads.

Saudade is probably town, but also deathtunneling my personality.

That leaves 3.

I do actually have another reason, but it ties into the one thing I don't want discussed until I'm actually ready to share why the questions matter.

[Jingle]

You are right but you'd expect him to be at least upset that I scum read him for what might be his natural tone

This is the opposite of true. I operate better under suspicion as both alignments. The way to piss me off is to ignore me or to insinuate that I'm an idiot and my spec is invalid.

sorry I dont, like, take your word for it

[Jingle]

Do you want proof that I like to be wagoned? Cause I could self meta that shit, but I have a feeling that it's not actually going to change anything.

cue sports fun fact:

Early billiard balls were generally used for cleaning clothes and for curing animal hides. The Romans used them on their bodies as part of bathing, and they spread their billiard ball making skills throughout Europe.

with 7 alive, it takes 4 to lynch.

day two will end in (expired on 2018-12-15 17:00:00), or earlier automatically if a majority lynch is achieved.

mod notes:

- heading to teh airport now so will be unable to do things for circa 12 hours to 24 hours.
- prodding ceejayvinoya
- quack

[Jingle]

Yup. Clearly my fault there's a lack of content.

[Irrelephant11]

I feel like you had a different conversation with me than I remember having
I offhandedly referred to your theory as a “game solve thing”
You corrected me
I explained that I used that terminology out of hope that your theory would solve the game, since the playerlist has gotten pretty quiet. I remarked that it felt to me like multiple players were waiting for your theory to come through, since I was doing that for a bit
You now seem angry that I’ve tried to blame! you!!! for everyone’s!! inactivity!!!!

But I wasn’t trying to imply you intentionally slowed the game. I was just explaining my word choice after you questioned it.
Now I’m left wondering if you’re more likely to get sarcastic/angry about this as town or scum. I townread self-righteous anger sometimes, but otoh the way we so differently interpreted our conversation leaves me confused

[ceejayvinoya]

Why am I feeling like a jingle wagon is a good idea

[Jingle]

Jingle wagons are pretty much always a good idea.

[Jingle]

Also, I doubt this setup is capable of bringing out mad Jingle.

If you would like to see mad Jingle for comparison, Paris Mafia or Organization 13 in my topics are the only recent ones to spring to my mind.
