I have no real read on Peng or jjh and I think that limming Alisae is strictly better for town’s EV
I expect em to to be more beneficial as town than e would be hard to catch as scum
Another solid way of putting it yes

How about you don’t hide behind some third-rate BoP technobabble and actually give a real opinion?

your point being? Alisae’s read on me is absolutely trash-tier, he knows it, and is avoiding addressing the real issues by stating “I play on my own time”.
You even said your vote on me would be removed when Alisae said to, so you are the exact reason why that garbage needs to be called out.
Maybe the reason I lack conviction is I have seen Alisae openly play in bad faith so I see getting rid of em as a “cleaning up” measure. Have you tried considering that?
I'll think about this - as I recall there was a town game of yours I read in that recent meta dive where Alisae was the subject of your ire
I believe I've openly referenced it in this game, yes

Town!Alisae is a large asset who will contribute more positively later on than you are giving credit for

That combined with said 'good vibes' makes me resistant to an Alisae push
Idt it's town alisae atp but it's true she's not the play this day phase but I think she needs more scrutiny as time goes on and there's evidence for her to work with if town.

In post 1793, jjh927 wrote: General takes here
I think the people making commentary on my meta are poorly informed
I really don't feel like town!Alisae votes me without a confident read
Without going back to look, I think Pooky is playing very similarly to gng upick and that's why I would consider him to be hard town here.
I don't think I have a second interesting enough read in isolation for Klick's request at the present time. 'Interesting' is the qualifier though. Tonight, when I am no longer phoneposting in response to an email ping, I'll make a proper readslist and Klick or anyone else can quiz me on something I guess.
Out of my wagon, I'm confident Klick and Wheme are town and a bit optimistic that STD is town and maybe actually readable, but I've had an eye on Cephrir for basically the whole phase, PP could easily be scum, and I've already mentioned Alisae
I'll put down a vote when I centre myself with a readlist
This mirrors my thoughts almost entirely.
But also I'm assuming I'm the exception wrt the meta comment

I did a project during my lunch break of making my reads much more binary and seeing what my PoE looked like and Alisae was in 'potential scum' territory
But I still don't think it's that likely and I'd rather go for Ali later even if e is wolf

@Gamma I'm just going to need the name of a game you were town and got mad at Alisae's bad faith play I don't have time to run it down
As for my vote toDay it doesn't look like Gamma or Cakez will be it so I'll probably just join some TRs on a wagon that I don't TR

Alisae, Wheme, Luka, Klick, Sakura - wherever the majority of these go I'll probably go as long as it's not on one of them or on KK, preferably not Cephrir but I'm willing to accept my reasoning for jjh is not strong enough to take him off the table for D1 "compromise" type voting

obviously there aren't only 5 other townies in this game but I don't like that my highest TRs are split up and that my highest SRs are voting for my middle-of-the-pack reads. I feel like I'm going to end up compromising on town toDay

Mod Note: jjh927 has been prodded
First 4 on the jjh wagon seem pure. STD maybe pure, PP questionable. With plurality in effect, voting him now won't even mean that scum need to hammer him and incriminate themselves unfortunately.
Dunn - Luka and Sakura are here - not sure about Pooky in this game, but I feel better about jjh than Dunn and STD moved from jjh to Dunn recently, as did PP. Feel like STD and PP have been moving around together throughout the day, don't think scum would be that blatant all day even after they get called out on it. If Dunn is scum maybe one is bussing because it would look weird if they
didn't
vote Dunn atp
Alisae wagon is trash - idk why KK is voting there maybe I should look into that.
Gamma right now voting PP
with
Dunnstral, and I do agree that I don't really see the jjh wagon's merit beyond "lurker" - I could go around in circles with the WIFOM of it so I'll just leave this alone - though I already didn't think the jjh lim would be good.
BCG is just against the Dunn lim it looks like and so he was voting Gamma and now is voting PP, the counterwagon. This seems odd that he didn't vote jjh instead of Gamma maybe? Actually no, looking at the VC, Gamma's wagon was the leading wagon as Dunnstral's was picking up steam.

I kinda want to see what this brings tbh. scum!Dunn looks bad for BCG
