Well, if that's a thing, my vote is still 'symbolically' on catboi.

But unsymbolically it is on yourself.

Implosion clearly withdrew because they’re alarmed by whatever you’re doing.

What point are you trying to make?

Someone might try to compare that to my read on Greeting but I think context is king

Prior to the recent activity I had planned on trying to analyze the interactions between frogsfrogs and val to see if they were compatible, because I want to put out everything I can into the thread and see if team makes sense, I think there's stuff there

I know I was warning against pre-flip associatives because it made me do dumb things on day 1 but I have strong scumreads on both of them due to individually scummy behavior and POE, this would be a last step of "does this solve make sense?"

Which one of you scumbags are going to hammer me then, eh, or are both of you already on this wagon?
Yeah, okay, this post is super off and I'll explain why:

Val churns out these massive walls on the regular in his posting, trying to gin up arguments with everyone, even when someone is trying to break it off and makes it clear they don't see a point in arguing with him


Then, suddenly, when the tide turns against him, he just immediately says nothing else, no arguing with his supposed townread, no attempts to leave behind a legacy?

it's not a believable display at all

he was super-confident in having the solve of me/greeting earlier but suddenly he's talking about "flushing out the partner"

he wants to scare people into not voting him by making them afraid they'll get scumread for doing so

It seems that my post is not worthy of an answer by Val89. Therefore, you are right, this is an intimidation tactic.

Vote Val89, y’all.

Why is that what you gravitate to instead of asking the question again?

I’ve already asked it twice, in and . Without any doubt, he’s seen it. I’m not going to nag him as lack of an answer to a question that he couldn’t have missed is also an answer.

Could you answer my question? A couple of names shouldn't be too hard to whack out, should it. There is a very limited pool of them.

Oh my god what,
no.

I'm seeing Val doing this as a way to force opinions of greeting (see who thinks this self vote is still scummy vs thinking greeting self hammer threat town & why) and see if there's a hammer after his two scum reads are already voting him. He's town. He doesn't do this right now, making himself
actually
in danger of a lim, unlike greeting, if he's about to flip red and I think this kind of extreme play is in line with who he's been so far!!

It's two of greeting / catboi / mafmen, and this train makes it look a lot like the first two :I
