I think I may have misinterpreted your as saying that both my self-vote and self criticism was weird in isolation when you meant that they were weird put together. The former didn't really make sense since you defended the self-vote earlier, the latter is a fair point
In post 173, brassherald wrote: And why are you counting out high princess, the literal one I was agreeing with it being weird with?

My reasoning on this mainly stems that they're suspicion came before I had actually explained my actions and so I understood why my actions up to that point would be seen as weird out of context, the two posts mentioned in came after I had already explained and felt dogpiley (probs not the right word for it, but alas) to me.

Though given the misunderstanding UNVOTE: BrassHerald

Thank you, I'll fix this!

I’ll usually be quieter over the weekends. Appols for that. Aside from what I’ve ealready said on the iavh thing, the SmileyDude stuff still seems very strange.

I’ll be back with a proper read through, some thoughts and a vote a bit later.

Well, 3 people, actually. Include Brassherald in that list. I just revisited Brassherald and I'm really conflicted. While I give SevenEyes a pass for newbie awkwardness (which I shouldn't), Brassherald has this weird non-committal tone which I really don't like, but well gut reads can get me so far.

My impressions about MagicalSteve start from a negative intercept but now I definitely TR him for this day at least.

I will refrain from attempting to read LuB even remotely.

Is it weird that I find the brassherald-SmileyDude interaction slightly stiff?

TR: TheHoldSteady > MagicalSteve
TL: Iavh,
Null: LuB > SmileyDude > SevenEyes > Erinys
SL(?): brassherald
SR: None so far

(Assuming you're talking about Seven,Brass and HPE. Correct me if i'm wrong)
I'd say of these three, SevenEyes has the least substantial content, though this may well be because they're having trouble keeping up so far. HPE and BrassHerald's ISO's have more substantial content to work off of imo, but i'd agree i'd like to see more out of these slots

@SevenEyes, do you have any impressions of the gamestate so far?

Will be much appreciated when you do o7
I have a whole lot of work that piled up on me last second so my activity will be going down slightly, but still expect to see content out of me.

I would say we are out of RVS.

I agree after replacing in that things are a little slow, but games often start that way. I see some attempts to move the game out and beyond RS, but nothing jumps out to me as worthy of good-faith or bad-faith characterization.

An ISO is if you click on the ISO link next to a persons name, or select multiple people from the ISO drop-down at the bottom of the page, it will generate a forum view of comments only by that person (or people if multiple are selected).
