upon reread i think it's vanderslot/worms. not entirely sure who i prefer for gf. kcda's early content didn't strike me as scummy as it did before on the second time around. there's a few minor kc/worm interactions earlier on that looked kind of contrived to me at first but i don't see any obvious theatre looking back. and then there are some interactions that don't really make sense if coordinated, like my flashwagon and worm's subsequent nonsensical kc shade. any kc posts that were tonepinging me i think could be NAI, same for the stilted early worm interactions.
meanwhile, vanders and dr worm completely avoided each other in-thread. worm stated a townread on vander several times; vander liked koba's list with dr worm at the bottom, and then later agreed with hockeyfan's towncase, that's it. zero explanations, zero interactions. vander did however back up and clarify the good doctor's koba/bell position in 266. can't really blame vander for not knowing how to interact with that partner, I've been in similar situations and chose to just avoid. but i won't say more on that so we dont get into any angle shooting.
individually, there's a tonne about vander's play i have disliked. overall, their play seemed rigid and formulated, something I couldn't put my finger on at first. there is also a habit I'm seeing where he talked a lot of theory about what scum would be doing, enough to push a narrative, say. more specifically, i dislike our interactions more on second read, the way he tried to slide enchant into my scumlist (which probably had vander's whole team on it lol) was slimy where any of vander's own efforts against enchant were hedgey at best. 357 is *chef's kiss* beautiful lmao.
dr worm's hop on enchant was terrible, hop on my wagon was even more egregious, and the way he tried to float the idea that kcda was scummy for abandoning the flashwagon is completely ridiculous. the absolute moon logic aside, the way it was initially presented ("NOTE...") is in line with worm's MO this whole game, playing from the sidelines. 289 is one other good example of worm forcing content with minimal gamestate impact.

Granted one of those people mainly stating it is a caught cheater so hey
So yeah my meta was bad xP
Bulge, why is bell town?
for me hockey's d2 play looked rushed and nervous. i thought i was seeing blue scum trying to avoid a repeat of d1 at all costs.
i can't recall many times i've been wrong tonereading bell. town bell is present and casual where as scum he gets a little cagier and more aloof. and I'm not getting the sense he's 'trying anything' here, jafeel?

Bell, tell me why you are outside of scumrange.
im not sure my meta is consistent enough to define a scumrange. people tend to have troubles reading me as either alignment.

See you in 7 hours
Also, what is NM doing? Worst play I’ve ever seen.
I can't remember the last N_M post that wasn't bland, unimaginative and lame. Some shitposters are at least somewhat funny. You are the epitomy of the type of poster that nobody would miss if you were to suddenly disappear. You never add anything of value.
I'm guessing you haven't read the game and probably never will? Why even sign up to play?
actually I'm torn atm. i think my vander read is a little stronger than my worm read, but gamestate i think makes it slightly more likely we hit scum with dr worm. idk im pretty sure about the pairing anyway but dunno what to think anymore about gf play.
