i have recently concluded that black holes and revelations is their 2nd best album i used to think it was absolution for a very long while but i did a relisten and i thought that it was kind of boring. bhar is much more fun and Interesting in what it does
Several Muse albums come close for me but BHAR will probably always be my fav because Knights of Cydonia is what got me into them + it's a 6-min song that somehow doesn't feel that way at all

(If this makes you think I'm a cultured music guy please don't, this is the only "real" band I follow lmao)

i sadly do not think of muse as Culture these days (or ever really lol) because their last few albums were mediocre to really bad but the first four. magical. effervescent. ahead of their time. etc etc
This is a perspective I understand but can’t really subscribe to, I find a lot of their efforts to “branch out” from the 2000s stuff interesting even when they don’t work. The Resistance/2nd Law are probably up their for the title of most overhated album ever, and Sim Theory is up there for me as well. Even when they miss (especially with their newest album, where my opinion is quite low) I still feel like they always put out two or three golden-age level gems that keep me interested long-term

Muse has been in what amounts to 1/3 of my life atp so I’ve gone through all their stuff and disliked a chunk of it, but they wouldn’t have stuck with me that long if I thought they were fully washed

I'm probably not as confident in this as DE is but I didn't see anyone else selfvoting twice, and I do think selfvoting is more often than not a bit sus. So it's a fine lead to drum up a bit of serious content, which we do need now

I get the point, but wouldn't it have been better for her to just vote for someone at random? It's less noticeable, and no one would really take the vote seriously
This is a newbie game, if this were my first rodeo I wouldn't trust anyone to take a joke I targeted at them as a joke 100% of the time. RVS can create some weird dynamics that last for all of D1 if not longer

Glad KJQ brings up the sleepslot. I’ve never been in a game with non-prelynch subs before, do you guys tend to reset your reads on a slot if someone new fills it?

I don’t think I ever said I scumread Ydra. I voted her but purposely didn’t explain why.

I will say I didn’t vibe with her fluff contributions though. I preferred yours more even though they were somewhat critical near the end.
This is a mindmeld. I have not abandoned my thoughts about Ydra, their RVS footprint felt very intentionally minimal outside of their convo with me specifically.

I don’t reset my reads. I give the rep-in a chance to catch up and comment on the game state. If that changes my read, I shift accordingly but I don’t clean slate them.

i guess if you want to analyze like. the feeling of paranoia over it or break it down id ask for an explanation as to what my motivation would be if i was a wolf. am i trying to buddy a single person to leverage that later? am i afraid of being too awkward tonally because i have Too Much Information? etc

because i can dialogue about that stuff more if theres a want to dive deeper otherwise . well. Well.
Buddying yes, I wouldn’t expect the awkwardness feeling from you since you seem to be very experienced.

First 8 hours were a crazy RVS phase where everyone besides purple was heavily involved. Since then we've struggled to get real wagons going or generate better AI content, Dragon's attempt on halfasleep has been the closest thing. Your slot seems a tiny bit scummy rn

My stance on lowposters is always the same: them being a lowposter is not scummy, that's just the kind of person that's easy to target when you're bored with the gamestate. So yeah I don't buy the scum!zach arguments yet

I believe there’s a chance you’re apprehensive to put your foot down and actually do something yet blabbing on about how important it is to do. I see value in it, so I’m doing it.

Tbf it's very obvious why DE is fishing for support before taking major action, his own reads are fragile and I'd probably do the same if I were angling for a TL status. It's annoying but understandable

Holy catchup, Batman

Also why the actual fuck do people just give up like this, the timing here is too perfect for it not to be in-game reasons. Is it just a normal thing on this site to have multiple subs per game?

Sounds like someone's either venting about getting their slot compromised by the person they filled for, or they're making a big stink of something that already means nothing. I don't really care which atp because I strongly dislike the prospect of both.

A wagon with two votes is not actually a wagon. Dragon's slot hardly counts when Dragon quit like a coward. Bias check, Ydra.

Dragon also quickly pivoted from irrationally really wanting a towncore of him, me, and ketchup to suddenly being convinced to vote me by Ydra without that much effort.

582 was the first obviously hostile post, starting an argument with Jackson. More telling, however, is 587, where he says he's "voting the only person he feels comfortable voting". He then exchanges a couple more nothingburger posts before retiring for the night. The next morning he comes out swinging with a Jackson vote at 680, refusing to elaborate further. He also says "finally, a wagon" when there is no semblance of a Jackson wagon at the time, suggesting he thinks more people will support him than actually will because he's just that much smarter than everyone else. From there he begins arguing with Ketchup and positing that he is simply bad at making reads, and starts mansplaining all over the place. The Jackson vote strikes me as petty and the continued arguments with new people strike me as desperate. KayJay then probes Dragon about his behavior and insists in 692 that his views are not just shaped by ketchup's opinions of him, saying that there are other examples, but refusing to cover those other examples in any more depth. By 761 he seems to have cooled off and reaffirms his vote on Skitter, but just a few minutes later he sheeps Ydrasse's vote using evidence that already existed well before he had any inkling of suspicion about me, which is shallow and reads like kowtowing for towncred to accelerate the decline of the wagon on him. I also read his sub-out as petty but apparently we're supposed to avoid talking about that (unrealistic) so I'll leave it there.

Dragon was the only person trying to move the gamestate forward for a while, which was towny at least in theory (more mixed in execution), but he declined so sharply more recently, especially while I was sleeping last night, that I simply cannot ignore it.

noone else seems very interested in voting there
Purple expressed interest though in a weird way. I specifically asked Zach if he scumread skitter more than me and he said yes (he’s currently voting me)

Pretty sure that would be the 5 we need if we wanted to lim.
hm yeah ok maybe

purple was only a way for me to evilly unleash a (fake?real?)crumb so er

I know it’s barely mentioning it but we’re not allowed to talk about other ongoing games in any way.

I await your update when you’re ready to make it, then!
Sure, let's pretend that nobody will ever angleshoot people across games, consciously or otherwise, because that's totally realistic. Might as well ban people from existing in two of the same games at once.

Evening. As you've probably gathered I'm struggling to stay invested in the game rn. Having three simulgames going across sites is foolhardy for anyone with a life, and I hope I never goad myself into trying it again. Here's a small readlist:

Ydrasse: This slot first since it was my first real-ish vote of the game. Content seems rather dry, their progression on Purple feels very sheepy. Behavior wrt me is fine. Not sure about the "triumvirate" idea between her/HEM/skitter. Reactions have been towny. Starting to think my scummy feelings around her were just objections to her playstyle so I'll pin her as towny for now

KayJayQueue: Scummier the more I look at her. Zigzags in and out of fluff mode like an Olympic skiier on the slalom. 1399 unsettles me for some reason. Sometimes she's the definition of "talks a lot, says nothing", sometimes she's in the middle of everything and hounding almost everyone (except me I guess). The Mango Manifesto(tm) seems like a targeted tool for pushing an LHF wagon and I mindmeld with HEM's concerns about confbias.

HEM: Townier the more I look at him. I think his presence has been consistently good for thread in the last couple days, he's butting heads with people a fair bit (esp Jackson) but I get the sense that he's keeping one eye on the solve at all times and just wants to hear from everyone. Cool stuff all around rn, solid townread. Kind of erases my ill will towards the slot from Dragon since HEM plays a lot like Dragon, but in a much healthier way that I'm guessing Dragon wanted to go for.

skitter30: Seems like a bit of a hot topic, I'm personally not vibing with the slot based on what I've read. Seems to be tunneling Jackson a bit, the most notable interaction chain I've seen is them voting Jackson while questioning them about their sus on Ketchup, and then seemingly starting beef with Ketchup later. Maybe the ISO is limiting how I view that but it's a bit of a scumlean, they've been very reserved in talking about anything not in their core interests (like Jackson) which I feel is scum behavior more often than not.

Purplemango: Stereotypical new player, I think the shading of their play is unwarranted and arguably manufactured. Complaining about someone's reads being "wishy-washy" on D1 is asinine. Their reactions to the pressure on their slot and wagon have been fine. Townread and it'll probably stay there until flips

Zachheus: More noobie lowposter energy but slightly more sus. Too much mindmelding with KJQ for my taste and they seem to be fine coasting between flavor-of-the-month wagons. Kind of NAI for a newbie but I'll put him at mixed for now

JacksonDingo: 250 posts? Slow down, Jack. On a more serious note, he seems quite surly. Very vocal with his reads but struggles to articulate some of them (see: Ketchup) in a way I'd usually find scummy. However, Jackson is too confrontational and headstrong at this juncture to make his slot seem wolfy. More than makes up for the long RVS where in hindsight it kinda felt like he was getting strung along by myself and KJQ. Townread until further major developments.

ketchup777: I have no clue what I'm looking at anymore and I'm too lazy to read that bloated fucking ISO, ketchup you're gonna give me an aneurysm. I'll just say townlean since that's the default for substantive highposters. Powerscumming not out of the question at all tho

The way you put the Manifesto(tm) together was way too biased for you to not be prepping for a vote, so the fact that you combined that tone with a lack of a vote rings an alarm bell for me. The fact that you use your lack of a vote as a talking point now only solidifies that.

Also, have you ever heard the story of "The Boy Who Cried 'Reaction Testing'"?

Sorry if this is a dumb question but I'm assuming the replacements aren't as common in other queues?
My impression is that open queue forces more subs bc there are more new players/multitasking veterans that do these games as a side hustle. My standards might just be too high tho, on my home site subs are almost unheard of due to lower game frequency

Yeah it is kinda hard to read a slot on that stuff after a fresh sub

On that note, screw you skitter. Again. Is it too much to ask for someone to commit to the rest of the game when they sub in for someone who can’t?

Is this genuinely what you think about it?

UNVOTE:
He said he didn’t have time to explain, but if I were town!snivy I just wouldn’t vote unless I could explain. Otherwise it just looks like you want to string people along due to how widely SRed you are

I’ve heard enough, there’s no apparent benefit to dragging this out longer. We got a claim, we waited for the sub, but all the sub’s doing is making the slot look way sketchier.

You don’t think scum would at least attempt to look good? This feels either like an agenda or confbias.
Fun fact: I have zero scum experience to draw from. I can only observe what scummy behavior is based on my normal standards, and snivy is making a point to tick the boxes that skitter stopped short of.

Also I only have one other scumread with decent confidence and no one’s interested in her.

I’m voting you because you avoided answering my question and instead opted to justify your behaviour in a way that did not matter.
Your question is rigged because I do not know anything about scum!pov firsthand. If you think that’s irrelevant you can sod off.

Do it. Quit flapping your mouth.

Why is it a trap?
Because snivy started this bullshit wagon, probably assessing that you’re the easiest guy to shift blame onto based on your thread behavior. And then they couldn’t come up with believable reads due to short notice and TMI so they borrowed a few of mine and tried to hide it by being vague.

Pls don't replace me dann-senpai :oops:

Not much more to say rn, thread is very stagnant. Despite agreeing with many of his points I will say it's strange how much ketchup is tunneling this hammer, I think he's trying to overrationalize a lot of his thought processes and that can be sign of insecure scum. Definitely leaning more toward SR than TR now, I was less sure before. Ydrasse is heading the opposite direction, I like how she's handling things currently

Sidenote: Out of respect for his health issues, I will assume Zach's current activity is NAI.

Tbf I am biased bc my main scumpool was on the wagon, I will admit that. But it’s extremely rash to act like this when we still need to get everyone in-thread and also review Ydra’s content

how would I have known if Jackson is a PR?
Cmiiw but looking at the setup, the only PRs that could redcheck off the Ydra kill are tracker and cop, but there’s a 50% chance that one of those roles would be in the setup with a mafia rolecop, so if you’re that then you could know something

I was gauging how long it would take you to say rolecop.

are you a rolecop?
I’m not claiming just because you ask, so neither confirming nor denying that I’m a cop

Idt Zach’s posting about camelslot is town!AI at all, as a new scummie who just wants to blend in you’d probably rush to a bus if it seemed loke your partner was doomed. And indeed, Zach’s anti-CS posts came well after the anti-CS sentiments made themselves known

Maybe too meta to be a good reading of things but it’s worth considering

Sick of me trying to figure out who is scum? This is such a weird response. I’m clearly invested in this and only pushing back against those trying to close our options up into only a few players.
This isn’t scumhunting, it’s petty bickering bullshit and it’s giving me a migraine. Stop trying to meta POV-check people and making up reasons to get offended by everything from Jackson/HEM. It’s blatantly anti-town at this point

I think I'll wait until the rest of the thread chimes in, this is a very early and fresh wagon. But if somebody wants to hammer me before then, go ahead! This game is not very fun to be in currently anyway.

Why not just discuss that now?
Just re-read zach's ISO and yeah it feels like nothingburger to me. They sorta went back and forth on snivy and felt easily swayed into a vote, which would be characteristic of a late bus in theory. In my late D1 wallpost I remember sussing him for mindmelding with you multiple times, but honestly idr where that came from aside from both of you TRing me and not being super interested in a purple vote(?) I want to call it an SR so badly but every point of evidence has the new player asterisk next to it

In post 2115, JacksonVirgo wrote: NKA is me assuming Ydrasse was a low-info kill because the scum liked the position they assumed D2 would start with. Which I would assume is exactly what is happening
I’ll comment on it then.

This is an interesting theory. I think it’s possible scum thought that since Ydrasse is an experienced player, her lying low could have suggested a PR (I hate this like of analysis yet other people seem to like it sooo…). Also they feared shooting me/KJQ in case we were protected. trying to work out which scumteam (A, B or C) it comes from I suppose
If scum were killing just based on experience, why wasn't HEM or myself shot? We were all on a similar enough wavelength, why shoot the person easiest to actually eliminate. Chances are it wasn't because of a PR-read because to shoot Ydrasse, I would assume they would have to be pretty confident and it just was wrong so idk. My mind is going straight to low-info shot because nobody was really focusing them at all to any reasonable degree.

I think neither Purple nor Zach makes that kill. I don't think Kay does either. HEM doesn't make that kill, nor do I (I'd have killed Kay here). The remainder is you/flush
Why would scum!me do this, you seem to have run out of reasons by the end of that list. Scum!me doesn't like that position because I took a front-row seat on what was (and still is) an obvious bus, which immediately casts suspicion on me (a lot of the scum yardsticks I used earlier to suss my existing SRs could also apply to me, the only difference being ik I'm town). I'd have killed HEM without a second thought and left Ydra to do whatever

Zach won’t hammer due to his seemingly quite confident townread on me. Purple won’t hammer because at this rate he will absolutely be the next lim once I flip town. Are we moving on from this yet?

I will reread purple’s ISO and HEM’s case against him to see if I like the wagon more afterwards, but I would still definitely prefer kay or ketchup as one is probably pocketing the other atm. Purple may simply end up as a self-pres vote

I already said why, we’re scummates :evil:

The issue with voting zach is that the whole case against him feels circumstantial. Was he on the probably-a-bus wagon? Yes. Has he been wishy-washy with his reads and thread presence? Yes. Do either of these make for reliable SR material in a newbie game? I have no idea, so even if he’s votable for me I’m never gonna die on a hill alone trying to lim him unless the next NK is waaaaaay more AI than Ydra was.

I was sure I answered this already, sorry

I don't have anyone that I scumread clearly, I'd rather not vote for you, zach, jackson, and ketchup (for now, at least)

And even though snivy feels towny, it makes more sense to me that he's scum than the others
Not sure where to go from here, maybe I'll try reading things again

This question is a bit weird to me because it feels more like a logical matter with calculations and such than who I think is scum, but I hope It's work for you
this reveals where purplemango's inclinations are despite being voteless. it feels relevant to me that he has chosen not to vote instead.
On the surface level this just demonstrates a lack of clear direction with scumhunting, which is super common on D1. However I do agree that no countervote push is strange, especially after Ydra got off me to complete the trifecta of his “non-townreads” being on the snivy wagon

Then again, the lack of good counterwagons seems to be a running theme for this game.

This angle from him is very specific and it makes my head spin. Maybe he’s just more willing to vote townreads than most people if that’s what the thread wants? If that was the case then his playstyle is just inherently scummy and thus NAI. I don’t normally go over previous games I wasn’t in to get meta reads but but might be necessary here

2246! The timing of it sets off so many alarm bells in my head that I think I’m going deaf.

I’m not opposed to zachwagoning in a vacuum, but this just feels like a scum ploy for claim information from a notably low-info slot.

And you're willing to move in lockstep with ketchup despite him also being in your pool? If ketchup wagon goes all the way and flips town I will have both eyes trained firmly on you, even more than I do now

If ketchup is scum I have absolutely no clue why he would claim PR here. Like sure, he's dragging someone else out to CC, but he'd still be the only scum left and essentially ending the game on the spot. Whereas if he claims VT or asks for a hammer delay he could end up in the same position as me with no hammer vote

Pedit: If you're town you have also misplayed horribly ketchup, yes

Well this is certainly a turn of events (referring to both the flip and HEM's bombastic entrance).

For the record, I think the only motivator for scum to kill purple here is fear of thudding into a doctor. Jack had some kind of "analysis" he shared at EoD2 that made him conclude Purple was FN (ultimately true, nice job JV), but if the last scum is a newer person who doesn't have a massive sample size of games with JV, they might not trust that as much; as it happens, that describes all three of us who are still in PoE.

If HEM is cleared as town from Jack's track, I'd be more than willing to just sheep him at this point. Both of the remaining scum candidates have been scumread by me to some extent so it's not the worst thing to lose either of them, even if one (zach) strongly townreads me.

Currently I plan to vote Kay but doing so would put her at E-1, which is probably premature.

These two posts look bad to me, can you see if you agree? You want Kay while I don't, we can try to balance each other out here.

"vote stays where it is" feels like they're not fully in the town mindset of thinking what they did was scummy, I don't know how to word this thought properly.
Ftr I am genuinely quite frustrated about Dann's thread management this game. We saw it again today with the thread being sorely late to open

I was 90% sure purple was FN after the flip. The remaining 10% comes from the idea that this was all a gigabrained reverse-psychology gamble on JV's part to trick scum into fearing purple as a doctor

Refer to the second part of 2453. I say that scum would make this play because they doubt your analysis based on a lack of experience with you, which can reasonably describe all three of us left in PoE, those being Kay,
zach,

Can you not apply that same logic to Kay? I find it odd that you'd just brush off HEM's concerns about her pocketing you and just look at me instead.

The logic about the kill? That doesn’t apply to anybody except Zach
No I mean the logic about pocketing attempts. Does it not make sense for me to buddy up to you when I townread you even before you were greenchecked, and want to show you I'm town to make sure we get it right at eLo?

I could reasonably say quite literally all of the things that Kay just said above, they all apply. The only difference is she's advantaged due to having a supply of previous games for evidence.

Say it with me, folks: fuck rule 6.

You didn’t start the wagon on scum. I did. I pushed it for a week and then you jumped on. So you can’t say we’re the same. It is obvious at this point because of clears that scum did bus. Who is most likely to bus? Probably one of the last votes. Not the annoying one whining about the lim for a week (hint: that’s me)
That's quite an understatement of my involvement in the wagon, after the subs came in I was all over that shit because I hate subs and was happy to see snivy go before he had an outsize impact on the game (sadly that didn't happen). I wouldn't put it past you at all to hard-bus to that extent, and it bears mentioning that zach was on the wagon as well in his usual noncommittal way.

If by "we" you mean you and snivy, then yes, you'll win. Glad we're on the same page here.

Also if it were as strict a 1v1 as you're looking for here, HEM would've tried to hammer me when he had the chance.

Of course not but I don’t think I want to argue that the scum goofed as an argument to eliminate someone today. I’m deciding between you and flush
You don't want to use scum goofing as an argument... in a newbie game... where the entire PoE is made up of self-proclaimed newbies...

That might be some wishful thinking ngl. Also wrt your Zach logic, there's an argument to be made that scum!Zach's just as boned if he thuds into a doctor as he is after killing purple. If he believed that (entirely possible), he would want to at least get the guaranteed kill on purple because getting rid of a greencheck is better than not doing so, and then there's a slim chance he can talk his way out of things and get to eLo. I don't want to say you're bad at analyzing the game, but I think dismissing the doctor and scumgoof ideas is a little foolhardy (for diff reasons) and reeks of confbias. Glad you're listening to HEM on how to proceed

We are in a rolecop setup, as has been well established with purple's flip. There are no masons in a rolecop setup, so for scum!me this would just be pure retard energy that draws unnecessary attention.

I don't give a fuck about your alignments in this context, this multi-week grand display of Kay's inferiority complex is well beyond the scope of anything that would be productive for this game. I would be tempted to blacklist her but then I'd never play another game on this site again since she signs up for all of them.

And that's hammer. I was in fact the mafia rolecop. GG and all that jazz, Dann can do the rest.

Congratulations Kay, you have secured a win by literally draining the scum's will to read text on a screen. I am going to bed now, as I should have done a while ago before choosing to make a mistake that will probably result in mod action. Apologies to CCS.
