i don't feel as if i've been stuck up, nor do i think ydrasse has been stuck up. anybody really feel this way about us?
yeah i laughed when i left skitter out of there, too.
I may be wording it in an extreme way, but all three of you do seem fairly stiff this game which is the connection I saw between you all. Differing degrees, and it’s not meant to be an insult at all
"Am I a ghost like you, caught between the seams of two intertwining melodies?"
i also don't feel like i've contributed jack shit. i think i've made a lot of impact in this game since i arrived, and i have made my reads known to all. anybody else feeling this way about me?

You really haven’t made them known, at least to my know so I’ll ask you the question you had asked me. Where is your head at?
"Am I a ghost like you, caught between the seams of two intertwining melodies?"
what's so stuck up about us? is it just in comparison to jackson who has been l i v e and f u n?
I’ll answer this on my end. Ydrasse has been acting withdrawn all game and makes comments like the one they just made. You come in complaining about everything, bringing up one question over and over when it’s been answered. Skitter just rejecting everything outright without explaining a single thing of substance. Just a few examples of the three of you.
The air around all three of you is thick. It’s hard to play around you (reading you effectively etc) when the contrast is so large between two sides of the town. I’m not saying you’re on the wrong side, I’m saying it’s different and it’s affecting the game.
"Am I a ghost like you, caught between the seams of two intertwining melodies?"
because i think you've raised the narrative that we're stuck up, and so it's obviously going to be in comparison to how you've been playing - another experienced player. i also think you've had much influence in enabling the extended rvs, and the multiposting. to the point that when i did raise the concern about it, it felt like you rebuffed it by saying it's an excuse to not contribute to the thread. really, what I'm trying to get to the bottom of is how much influence you've had in the game and how much of that influence is anti-town if you really squint your eyes.

I acknowledge this post. Can you please tell me your thoughts on the gamestate? Thanks
"Am I a ghost like you, caught between the seams of two intertwining melodies?"
i'll lay off it now. i want to put it out there as to not get lost in the ether. because when you explained where your head is at, it feels as if you agree that the way things were going weren't really very pro-town and it was contradictory to the gamestate that you were encouraging. and it seems as if you agree, because you want to rectify it.

Do you think the connection between you three and the rest is particularly healthy for the game as it stands?
i still don't understand what nebulous connection this is supposed to be other than familiarity and not posting as much
There’s the two wagons too, that contain exactly the three of you. And the attempts to direct new players to play the way you want them to play instead of giving them room to play how they feel comfortable while learning.

I don’t really care if things aren’t perfectly optimal all year round. I play to have fun and I’ve tried boosting others fun while still playing the game. I acknowledge what you see and how it can be seen as a risk to thread health, so I can acknowledge that line of thinking I just don’t think complaining about it constantly does anything but pull it too far into the other direction. Comments like Ydrasses don’t help either as they are segmenting the game further and causing even more dissonance than there already is
"Am I a ghost like you, caught between the seams of two intertwining melodies?"
i don't feel as if ydrasse's comments have segmented the game further. what i feel has segmented the game is you actually segmenting the game by giving an us vs them narrative about what's fun and what isn't fun, newbies vs experienced, one side of town vs other side of town. you've done this plenty of times. I'm not asking for perfectly optimal, nor i think anyone is.

I don't think there will a time where it'll be like "oh yea i'm sure kay is town" or something like that
I still try to give my thoughts kinda
I can be too much sure in random things, its sound funny
Come on I know you wanna townread me!
I do townread your for now
Your interactions with jackson kinda make me worry (not sure its the right word) but not in "one of you is scum" way

Is it in a “Kay wake up and smell the pocket lint” kind of way or
