and even with your scum reads, I don't get the feeling that you truly think them to be scum. I don't see you passionate,I don't see you convincing others. I just see you analyze posts, give your opinion if its towny or scummy, and move on from there.

Um? You just said you didn't think it was alignment indicative for him to not being voting anywhere?
Yes?

But at this moment I am going to derail any Eragon wagon that gains steam if this guy won't be able to respond.

this is a game i played a few weeks back as town, in the second post i believe, are ISO's, if you read my ISO the first true vote(non-RVS) is on page 12/17,

meaning nearly 125 of my posts went by without me placing a vote.(and even that one was just to make sure someone else wasnt lynched)

it is my norm to not place a vote until i have time to explain stuff, have a good solid reason, or i am confident in my read
Uh. Am I being stupid? You vote someone on the first page of your ISO, page 5 in the game, and say that they should claim...?

The only person you've been saying you consider scum is Trinity and that you haven't looked at anyone else. Eragon is here right now, and I want to talk to him before he goes away again. Why are you so driven in defending Eragon from scrutiny?

Iceman:
I havent seen much content from him except saying he wants to PL the IC if they are alive late game, and calling quick scum for not reading the thread. Overall it seems like he has been pushing on the little things and reaching for some things, and I’m not getting good vibes from his post. All this being said, based on his experience level(i think) he could also be Noob!town

Stan1ey:
I would love to see more activity from him because I think his posts are pretty towny, but he’s only had 9 posts in the game, so I cant give him much more than a light town read.


Flicker:
Starts off kinda awkward IMO, and I don’t really like their “scrutinization” posts, plus their SR on Oka feels kinda forced and reaching(like on the push about Oka asking questions, I mean ???) also when they posted their reads most of the Reads are very weak.

Reads Nancy towny for being active
Reads Iceman town for pointing out good Info
Reads FF as town for Mindmelding
Reads me as town for attitude
Reads Trinity as town for weirdness and votes
Reads Stan1ey as null for “sheeping”?
Reads Quick as null for the reading

And I think its odd that they have a town pile of 6 people and the other 2 are null pile?
So no SR’s?


Trinity:
I think her posts are fairly natural, there have been a few pings back and forth such as the “I don’t SR him… Yet” post and their defense of Oka, instead of trying to counter the read or Prove it wrong, they brush it off like its nothing and just say that “scum must be happy watching us argue” and more or less OMGUS’ing on Oka by saying his push is scummy.
I also didn’t like their post saying “Yes, finally, someone else seeing scum in FF”

Their posts seem scummy but their tone feels natural, so thats why they are a null read for me

Quick:
Really don’t have a great read on them but I don’t think they would bring this much attention to themselves for not reading the thread if they were scum. This is by far one of my weaker reads, but I’m soul-reading them as light town


OkaPoka:
In the beginning he felt pretty good, but then I don’t really like him pushing the noobs that have low thread presence and likely will have a harder time defending themselves. It kinda seems like he is trying to pull of an easier mis-lynch than trying to Lynch someone like Nancy or FF. I also don’t like “at this point im just waiting for the replacement to sarge to replace in and say something so i can vote them lol” also he seems to be really wishy-washy on his reads, like on trinity he goes scum, town, then scum again. His tunnel on Iceman felt kinda off to me, even if I agreed with the points.
His push later on on Trinity feels towny actually. I also think its weird that as soon as Nancy said she was no longer positive in the TR on me, he said the same thing too. He just kinda seems like he’s being a little opportunistic and sheepy, but not overall too bad recently. He is also one of my weaker reads but I think he is a little scummy.


FF:
posts feel natural and towny, and I’m mind-melding a lot with him. He is pretty much a tone-read, and its kinda hard to explain in short words, but I am almost confident in a Town!FF

Nancy:
What do I even say about this except town, town, town, town, town, town
@Eragon, did you SR flicker in this post?

I don't care about their ISO.

I care about your play this game.

I don't really see a precedent for it. Even in the Donner Party game, you voted someone without seeming to have any overwhelming conviction about their alignment. So I'm left just still not really understanding why this a thing in this game.

Shrug. I like your response to pressure, at least.

Okay, thanks.

This game is getting a little bloated, so I'm probably going to start posting a lot less until we get near deadline. Kinda don't want to tip over 300.
