Just FYI.
that's worth noting but probably something i'll look into tomorrow - i care more about the reasons he got lynched than like the fact he gets lynched

I wouldn’t want to type out “gigabyteTroubadour” either and giggles is a fun name :)

Will save discussion about NKA for tomorrow, assuming I'm still here, as I don't want to go and influence kill choices~~
If you're unfocused why do you keep defending people? Do you have any solid scum reads?
Sorry, missed.

As I said earlier, I'll defend people if I think they are town and have a chance of being mislynched. It doesn't really have to do with how focused I am. I'm in a decently typical state for my d1 of not having any solid scumreads. I have scumleans on broxul and giga, but I can easily see myself being wrong about both of them. I'd be moderately surprised/impressed if I'm wrong on you, shortaru, stan or ariane, but also not drastically to the point where I'm not going to spend time re-evaluating later days.

Yeah I don't have a personal problem with it, I just find it odd that he would come up with nickname all on his own. There are two other possibilities:

1. He meta'd you and decided to use it.
2. Tinfoil: you introduced yourself as giggles in the scumthread.

I wouldn't be surprised if it were the former as he's been using meta to prove his stances. Which I still find strange for a newbie.

It's an easy autocorrect nick.

Apologies if it offends.
Does this post forward a scum win con, or do you just think I'm strange?

Could be scum trying to push a mislynch on me but his thought process seems genuine but he's also accused me of things that I don't think are true. He's been entirely focused on me pretty much outside of his first post so maybe it's hard for me to get a fully impartial read here since I know what I am and that makes me want to read him as scum.
Can you unpack this a bit more for me?

I wouldn't say I know Mewtaph's playstyle but ime aggression is usually town indicative, but I'm kind of feeling that there's a dissonance between you feeling misrepped by him and his hyperfocus and there being a genuine thought process? Like when I'm scum I can usually try to coast on tunneling because I don't actually have to mimic a thought process - what seems town about how Mew's doing it and what's making you think it's scum pushing a mislynch on you?
Broxul needs to respond to this when he gets the chance. High priority.

VOTE: Emyrs
Fine with setting this up preparing for an EoD scramble because I am not sure if I can make it to the end of the deadline. Lots of people are using PoE on D1 which is a sign that everyone is pretty villagery. Emyrs is LHF, but I am not opposed to it and I don't want to have my vote restricting other players that could actively vote shift near the deadline.

Broxul is still going to get reboarded on by me if his posting quality drops. That probably sounds a bit overbearing considering I've indicated some room to breathe in my recent posts but my thoughts on that slot are not completely invalidated due to two posts. Should be picking up activity as deadline approaches or at least, to the best of their ability.

If you're talking about my unvote, your most recent questions aren't that flattering either. Not completely buying what would've motivate you to write those posts as town (talking about the "giggles" and "implosion alt" stuff).

Emrys red flip will clear Mew (not that he really needs it), because there is zero scum motivation in giving a wagon on scum steam when there's no active interest in it.

Lynch nao.

I did a meta dive on stan1ey and it proved favourable results.

@Cheeky: Yeah, well, in that case, you're right. I honestly don't think I can be around too much longer when the deadline arrives since I have an exam the day of.

Also, both of those posts are NAI. You're almost trying too hard.

Asking questions which could give me meta is advantageous to either alignment. As town, knowing giga and shorts knowledge of each other can help me gauge their reads of the other. Asking if someone is an alt is me checking if there's meta for the player that I may be aware of. As scum, I could see how easily it would be to manipulate giga/short if they did know each other. And I could be asking implosion if he's an alt for small talk or to see if there's meta I can use against him or need to be weary of. So yeah nai.

You'll also find some players are very serious and game focussed and some people fluff post off topic a lot with most people somewhere in between. If you were thinking I wasn't being serious enough or something lol.
