how about we just kill this, I feel like he's reacting to all the wrong things and in all the wrong ways

To me his recent posts about alisae just seem like someone who is thinking about the game enough to want to reach back at something
This just looks like word salad

Ok here's another attempt

I think it's +town when someone pulls up something from hundreds of posts ago that has nothing to do with the current topic. It shows organic thought

It would be funny if I were to try ADHD meds this weekend and the result was a spooky case instead of anything I actually need to do in my life

Maybe
I just don’t really care for how he engaged with players that I feel like weren’t acting in good faith (Luka and Alisae), feels like he was doing a Don Quixote, which I think is +scum because it’s a way of looking productive but you’re just throwing your efforts at a solid object

VOTE: gamma

willing to flashwagon onto PP, so consider my vote there in spirit.
Also, there’s over 48 hours which is plenty of time, and I feel like T3 should actually be considered as an elimination for today since this feels like he’s crashing and burning. In fact, I am getting some mild flashbacks to mini 2213 rn
48 hours on MS with hammer required to hammer is more like 24 hours left, the last 24 hours is always treated as a buffer so we dont accidentally no eliminate.
This game has plurality lims
well regardless, we have a very important PR we do not want to throw and eliminate to turn this into mountainous.

jjh was a lurksack as town iirc last time i faced them when i was scum fwiw. i just think they are lurky in general, its more of the quality of his posts that matters and iirc they kinda passed the quality that is lacking in their scum game but i might be misremembering

In post 1019, Dunnstral wrote: So how much of the thread have you read, and what made you vote ssbm_Kyouko?
I see all

Kyouko's STD vote followed by later unvote and apparent confusion at the wagon is my primary point of focus. Voting STD with the intention of generating content should be known to be completely pointless because STD won't do that. I don't think the 'default wagon' line of reasoning works from the standpoint of one who was willing to vote there initially
In post 1037, jjh927 wrote: Interesting that you think Kyouko comes off more believable in the Kyouko/T3 interactions

Kyouko's 582 is specific, but comes out at a later point in conversation where the layers have built up and scum could reach for a conclusion like that. The point itself doesn't hold up to a very basic level of scrutiny either. The idea that someone would specifically give T3 extra advice about Kyouko's towngame to handle that interaction is entirely outlandish, but makes sense from the perspective of scum actively trying to include "I am town" in their line of reasoning.

The bit that actually concerns me on the flip side is the recent exchange where T3 backs off and deescalates. I am aware T3 has a fairly good scumgame and he's around the middle of my list of people I want to have a conversation with
In post 1038, jjh927 wrote: Your take on 568 is downright concerning though

Do you actually believe that
just some examples plus the top post actually correlates with what I said too wrt being lurky as either alignment nowadays

At least it’s not random, but that makes it sound like if a wagon falls down into a tied position the other one would go through? Which just doesn’t make sense as a way to resolve it.

I really don’t see what the logic for the jjh vote is beyond “lurker vote”
If we’re doing that, PP is a better choice since I feel like he actually has a lurkscum meta
