Newbie 1882 - Game Over

[Papa Zito]

Well.... yes.

Wait are you saying I'm a neutral read because you haven't read my posts yet?

[ceejayvinoya]

Nah the summary of what I had on you is that I'm not sure which way it swings, if it helps town more or scum.

[Papa Zito]

Okay. Can you give a couple examples?

[ceejayvinoya]

Yeah seriously. We're handing the game to the scumteam if we don't get some participation going.

Here's one. Like as town, you of course would also want the game to move along, and as scum you just agreed with someone who has broke the silence (Sunny) because what they said was true anyway.

I don't have any postrate statistics handy and honestly I don't care how "common" a slow start is. What I do know is that the town is going to have a really hard time coming to a consensus if people aren't participating.

There's no way to tell if the lack of posting is intentional. Some people have busy lives and can only post at certain times of day. Some people forget about games between the time they signed up and the time it starts. Some people are reactionary and only post when they feel like they need to address something. And yeah some people (of both alignments!) decide that laying low is the best course of action and purposefully avoid the thread as much as possible.

But I wouldn't characterize what we're seeing as lurking. That's an entirely different thing.

Another. I think this post is unnecessarily long and that it somehow could be done in a shorter way? Like, I know you're the IC but this is a bit long.

[ceejayvinoya]

Oh. I think I'm doing this the wrong way.

Right now I'm thinking that I am wrongly nullcasing Zito because he has a lot of info reads, but wtf, that's his job as IC.

With 9 players alive it takes 5 votes to lynch.

Day 1 ends in (expired on 2018-07-27 21:00:00)

Sunlit Diamond has not picked up his prod and is being replaced.

[Skygazer]

VOTE: Chardev

L-1

[Completly Trustworthy]

Well, that's enough to increase my willingness to see sky lynched. Haven't I made it clear throughout this thread that naked votes are unwanted? I would like to know why you thought putting Chardev to l-1 was a good idea.

[Completly Trustworthy]

Also Sky, did you really have nothing to say about Ceejay and Zito's latest posts?

[Skygazer]

I think naked votes and L-1's are a useful tool and I don't see anyone here lolhammering

I haven't seen anything about those posts to comment on yet

[teacher]

Hmmm. Only player on both wagons who previously called Chardev lynchbait then changes to voting them without explanation. Yea count me out for Chardev and even more interested in Sky.

[Skygazer]

Have you noticed the deadline, though? I'm willing to lynch a player I don't actively want to lynch to avoid a no lynch.

L-1's create pressure and I really wanted to see chardev respond to pressure but UD took his vote off right away.

[teacher]

The deadline is 48hrs after the replacement, per Brass response to me yesterday. So it is essentially paused.

[Skygazer]

Replacements can happen p quickly ya know

[teacher]

What’s your real lynch pool// who is your favorite and why? Other than providing good reasons to get me on the duck wagon, your slot hasn’t done much content so I’d like, in Papas verbiage, “more words”

[xRECKONERx]

Agree w/ current line of questioning; emptyvote needs a lil more oomph

Sorry for not contributing more right now, work has been an absolute bitch this week

Special thanks to Micc, our new Micro List Mod, for filling in for me this morning when a transformer near my office literally exploded.

[teacher]

glad you’re back. But Chardev isn’t voting himself.

[ceejayvinoya]

VOTE: Skygazer

Oh don't mind me I'm just pressuring youuu

With UD's claim my lynchpool is kind of down to {Chardev, Reck, CJ} for now for very weak reasons. I'm not really confident in any of those so I wanted to stir things up with the L-1 vote and see what happens.

I’m surprised you’re mostly focused offwagon. If your scumreads are weak can you give me a specific reason PaPas not in the pool?

[Skygazer]

Do you think scum zito would go out of his way to withold his reads when it'd be much easier for him to fabricate some and not draw attention to himself? Because I don't think so and that's why zito isn't in my pool.

[Chardev]

I am not counterclaiming UglyDuck's slot.

I might get a readlist soon.
