I am caught up.... God, I hate that the leading wagon is all RVS with 3 days left, by the way.
I've only made one good post, and don't you dare accuse me of doing it again.

I kinda agree. This game has been too slow.

So I didn't like Nineja's early case against Junko. First impression was positive but the more I thought about it the more I don't think it makes sense that Junko was trying to shift attention from Moony. she called something out which seemed like a conversation topic and it like, abundantly hasn't happened; I think this is wolfy positioning and heavily presumptuous.

His townread of Moony is outright frightening; I got the impression he was calling junko/moony SvS in his earlier junko case. Moony has done nothing AI. the townread only checks out on the basis that he thinks that the entire wagon has high scum equity (tw/gw scum with no reasoning; GL is "null". but he doesn't seem interested in actually taking any of the 3 of us on...)

because I feel this is a scum lynching an easy day 1 lynch so Moony is probably town, I'm not saying he can't be scum, but this lynch looks a little too sus for me it just feels like atleast 1 scum is on this lynch. To answer your 2nd post (mobile sucks so i cant quote) GL can still be scum thats true however I personally find you 2 scummier and think the scum is more likely between you 2. I think GL should talk more though, would like more from them. I unlynched without lynching because I wanted to see your answer to my question first (about the JunkoChan read) before I lynched between you or GW.

I at least now feel I can be more upset with GuiltyLion than you for allowing this RVS wagon to stand. (I'm kind of upset that both of you were still on this wagon until now)

I'm not sure I'm buying this, though, I would like to hear from moon's replacement so that I can sort that slot.

I'm not totally feeling Nineja as scum, though, and not fully on you as town, which distresses me.

That being said, I'm not fully a fan of the posturing in of not really taking a stance on the moon slot, not sure if I'm thinking it's a newbie being unsure or a scum trying to keep all possible votes open. I'll think about it.

For now, VOTE: GuiltyLion out of pure emotion for him still being in RVS.

for the record the posturing in 127 leading into the HARD TOWNREAD on a lurker slot in 162 is what's ringing my alarm bells. incidentally I think Nineja => GL interactions are more likely to be scum/scum than anything else I've spotted today.. The way he nullreads him and just... leaves him there is pinging

pedit: brass has the best-cut jib in the land.

In post 147, GuiltyLion wrote:I was townreading YellowSnow until his push on GrandWazoo for saying "I know I'm town", that's a serious reach. town or scum can say that, there's nothing inherently AI in it either way, and the extra "preying on newer players bit" is serious spin-zone
By the way, not really sure this is AI on yellow.

I think early on, in a game about deceit, the natural reaction is to disbelieve someone making a claim of town alignment.

Townz, on the other hand, is the best alignment and should always be claimed. The Z makes it much better than just "town".

I actually agree entirely and think Yellow'z push back against GrandWazoo is less likely to come from teh scumz than teh townz.

I don't even think it's non-alignment indicative (NAI). I think it's slightly town scented.

By the way thanks for all the jib talk, I'm not positive what jib is but I shouldn't be rude and not thank people for my jib compliments.

Actually, while I'm thinking of it, GrandWazoo, can I get your thoughts on the game so far?

You know, reads, feelings, confessions to being a cold blooded murderer if that's the case.

The game so far has until very recently been a frustrating grind, low signal-to-noise ratio, lots of psycho-meta stuff, not much analysis. This is my 2d newbie game and I gather this is to be expected. I'm delighted to see CJ's slot actually contributing and I'm hoping moony's replacement is as engaged as Brass.

You're right about the RVS wagon - for me that was almost by default since what little we got from that slot was hot garbage and I didn't see a great alternative.

The murder charge was dropped. I plead guilty on the lesser included offense of being prickly and provocative.

Imma wait til Yottacat shows up and redeems that slot. Or not.

Not feeling the GLscum vibe. Nineja seemed the better choice.

VOTE: Nineja
I'd rather this, as well. But in my experience unless you have a Very Very Strong feeling it's better to wagon a scummy player than vote your #1 scumread for vanity. all the same it's better to vanity vote than unvote categorically.

Sorry about being extremely late

need a few days to establish some kind of reads

For now I would go with what others are thinking

My signature in 2018-2019:

Fun Fact: The above fact is a fact.

My thoughts on my signature in 2018-2019:
What in the world even is "Burger king foot lettuce"?
I know what Burger King is but what is foot lettuce?
Is it lettuce made out of feet? Geez, I'm so different than how I used to be.
