I guess the pace of this game is a tad too fast for me

I mean, if you just speak up, those of us who talk a lot can chill out/condense posts. That's so much better then after the fact "oh yeah, I GUESS the pace was too fast"

Alright, no contest there. That's what I'm trying to do now.

Vulture - My controversial take. I'm not sure if I should repeat the reasons for my take but I stand by it. As for their other posts, are they more towny or scummy, I'm not sure with the answer to that but I think their posts are logical and makes sense so other than their early d1 suggestion, I don't think I will add scum points to their slot

I might have missed it, but without quoting full posts (just putting the post numbers are fine) could you repeat why Vulture is your STRONGEST SR?

Basically I SRd Vulture for them suggesting an early Mason reveal because it's more beneficial to scum than town. Others hated my stand and that's why it's controversial.

What feels wild to me, is your list is basically just the ordered version of my list, yet you had no comments for me on any of my people? You just provided a readslist cause I said you feel like you don't want to interact that much, it's generally a lot easier for maf to just quote a bunch of stuff and say whatever, ideally you'd be interacting in live time with someone.

I disagree with this. First of all, I posted a readslist before you posted your own. I posted on 882. You posted on 985. My 998 readslist was just me indulging Datisi's request for more info, but the reads were the same. If you're insinuating that I copied your list then that's incorrect entirely since I posted first.

I commented on your comment on me. I didn't comment on the others because basically I'm burnt out with the fast pace of the game. So I'm just commenting on things relating to me.

I would love to hear a little more on why you have Penguin, GB, Mala as the same tier. Could I get the non cliffnotes version of your read there?

There's nothing much to say since they're lurking but here goes:

Penguin - I think from what you guys are saying, "not saying much" is Penguin's game. He did start with that gif list so I like that but other than that, can't get a read. Since the slot is not posting much, I SR that slot. I basically SR lurkers especially on D1.

GB - Not talking. Well the slot did while I was creating this reply but I think GB posted just because he got prodded. The slot is not really contributing to anything. I think since everyone is looking at me suspiciously, GB!scum is taking advantage and is trying to get wagon momentum rolling with his vote on me.

Mala - Lurking. Posted a bit then is gone again. So SR. I default SR lurkers.

Golly I spaced out today.

GeorgeBailey's catchup feels very similarly uninspired to Mala's to me, they both are just giving very easy opinions to have.

I know there's some outstanding questions to me, I'll answer them and probably engage a bunch tomorrow earlyish.

VOTE: fire

I'm not sure if I'm just biased against you somehow :<

your vote against hut just feels uninspired >_<

[Something_Smart]

Why is it less inspired than George's? I feel like trying to get a wagon going is a pretty reasonable aim.

The hutmeil wagon gives me majorly bad vibes as being too easy.

Datisi, you're good with this?

mmm? it's one more than fire and one less than where mala was...

I can see momentum lazily shifting that way. I'm just calling it out before it takes off as a wagon of resignation.

Your vote seems bad to me especially.

[VP Baltar]

I'm curious if Penguin has thoughts on the pace of the game; I remember him generally being more involved/pushy and he's indicated a desire to have bigger wagons but he's not really making a sustained effort to fulfill that end.

mmm? if you recall, i like wagons for a specific reason that require fairly frequent votecounts. we're about to hit 1000 with 3....so i guess too fast?

What's your specific reason for liking the hutmeil wagon?

seems weird to call something too easy before it actually happens....

i don't have one. I like wagons.

if I think it's a bad wagon on a newbie, why is it weird?

Also, answer my question.

[VP Baltar]

pedited me. That's what I thought anyhow.

UNVOTE:
VOTE: penguin

[PenguinPower]

if I think it's a bad wagon on a newbie, why is it weird?

because that's not what you said. you said you thought it was too easy...then said you were premptively calling it too easy because you thought momentum was shifting that way.

now you say it's a bad wagon.

can't read your mind

[VP Baltar]

going from no read to a vote for no reason is the definition of a bad wagon.

What do you think is the substantive difference between "too easy" and "bad". You're arguing pointless semantics here.

[PenguinPower]

a no read from 300 posts ago and voting someone who i don't have a townread on is the definition of a bad wagon

so the best thing you can do with your vote on page 44 is put it on someone you are implying you have a null read on?

You listed several scum reads from 300 posts ago. Are those people town now to you?

[PenguinPower]

i have almost zero strong reads day 1 and there are precious few people who i won't vote in the name of getting wagons going and seeing how they rise and fall.

what's telling to me so far is that we have yet to have one serious wagon though i guess you could maybe kinda sorta call mala's wagon one.

[Malakittens]

really? just want to ignore me mala?
VOTE: Malakittens

I wasn't. I just had things to do other than this game.

As I said: I'm kinda placing you and Gamma together. I don't really know which one of you is scum, but it's more than likely to be Gamma.

As I also said you know your meta pretty well. I know you tend to get very quiet and explode when you are caught as scum, but with you knowing that tell it gives me pause on a town read because meta tells can be manilupative

[VP Baltar]

Are those people town now to you?

[Gamma Emerald]

-_-
Why do you think I’m more likely scum than Andante Mala?
