I think VPB is a decent person to pick a slap fight with if you're scum because I don't think he's particularly prone to OMGUS and he is prone to fighting back loudly so its good thread distraction and it kind of seems to have gone nowhere.

I didn't comment on this much at the time because I don't think me discussing my slot is like super useful to anyone but that was my impression at the time reading it.

VPB/peta seemed like two townies fighting when I first read it. I'll have to go back and re-read it to see if I feel any different now

Peta just hiding out waiting for the day to end doesn't feel right. And he's willing to just vote for whoever just to end it? What

Is this normal townPeta behavior?

at times, yes

i think the game has gotten shitty and dull and i don't like talking with most of the people in it, we've reached the stage of endlessly rehashing the same arguments while people loudly shield every major attempt at a wagon so nothing gets done

we are less than halfway to the allotted deadline and are already over 100 pages. we're on pace to have 150, possibly 200. absolutely no one is going to want to reread the colossal pile of shit we have generated, and that is a wildly pro-scum gamestate

scum are already winning this day phase, and potentially the rest of the game with it


the game does not need more "content", it needs less, and it needs it yesterday. it needs someone to actively be flipped.

this is maybe contrary to popular opinion where "we still have so much time to discuss" is the constant refrain, as though the optimal game state is to milk every last second of the clock available with the idea you will somehow come to an optimal decision, but having playing way too many games over the past few years i don't believe that to be the case. i think lengthy, idle day 1s are antitown.

The persistence on ActionDan is concerning. She initially had a strong scumread on Lycan due to... *checks notes* ...one other game and their vote on Taly. What's interesting here is that CSF also considers Taly scummy. Why is Lycan parking his vote on a player you find scummy all that bad, especially early in D1? It just seems too convenient to stick on this mobile wagon for those reads

A lot of the ISO is just jumping to whatever bandwagon has the most momentum and this ALWAYS sets off red flags for me regardless of the meta

I'm just not getting town vibes from this ISO at all and I hope someone else with better insight on CSF as a player can look into it

The jury is still out on Alisae but I feel comfortable moving my vote for now

VOTE: CSF
2 games actually, one of which i metadived him in because his past games were linked and discussed in the game

And then the next part is I'm scummy for band wagoning too much after saying I've been too persistent on Dan

You've been persistent on the bandwagon with the most mobility after sheeping people from wagon to wagon. Thinking that's scummy seems pretty reasonable

Do you like Dan or are you just don't like that people are tired of waiting around and want action.
I don't think u are aware how much people like myself want to end the day and I can't think of anyone who is townreading Dan.

I null read Lycan and I'm null reading Dan. That slot hasn't had a chance to provide actual content all game. Lycan was wildly inactive and Dan hasn't even caught up yet.

You think Dan is a better lim than CSF?

And how many reads do u have to be confident in for us to end the day today because i really don't want to wait around for you to feel like you completely solved the game because for one ur never going to get comfortable around my slot either way i think today.

I would much rather u put me in confirm scum in ur reads list and be done there. Its really not like us talking and me giving my opinions is helping skew u anyway. Id rather actively push u to scumread me if that quickens this process of us allowing to end the day.

Who else do u need to get to comfortable level so we ca nend the day?

I don't want page 150 day 1. I didn't want page 100 and i really don't like complaining about this.

I am not telling u to jump on.
I am telling u, to stop discouraging a wagon at this point especially if its not even on a townread of yours.

U literally just shaded this being a wagon to discourage anyone hoping on because "i don't like this wagon"
