Gone Home is a game where the main character arrives at an empty house and must proceed to explore it. In this sense, you, the player, are just visiting the house, which fits with the Visitor role. The only reason why it has the weak modifier is that Visitor is a useless role by itself, so I can see the mod adding the modifier to actually make it useful.

I double-checked my memories of Hermy in Narnia because I stopped reading closely after BRO and I died, and it lined up with the SK-Hermy micro game. Self-conscious, nervous. Frankly Mala didn't have much to say indicating that I was wrong, but without personal meta experience to back it up, she's less confident in the vote.

Why didn't Malakittens post in this game yet?
I have?

I'm busy. should and will catch up after my early morning shift. I like being able to get on the same time as Peng to talk about reads and stuff.

Ok guys I'm just gonna go ahead and be honest: this is my first time replacing into a game and I had thought it would be different. I understimated the difference between reading how someone interacts and actually interacting with that person. I also voted before having caught up with everyones play.

I actually think BRO's reaction to my/gg's accusations was townish (although the claim was not).

So yeah, I'm just gonna take back a few steps and think it through before making a move.
I hate to pull the low newbie argument and I know that some of you don't like this post, but it explains the wishywashyness and imo it's better to be truthful than to keep hanging on to my shit case and play uncomfortably.

As for my biggest scumread atm, it would have to be desp, but don't expect it to stay that way.

Why are you an easy lynch?
See my previous post, basically because I've been stupid and playing this game badly so far.

I didn't really see the benefit in a specific person answering that question, I thought you just wanted to know how the role related to the game.

I did see your previous post, but you claimed to be an easy lynch before your woe-is-me-I'm-a-newb shtick. Nothing in your approach to the game before you started getting heat suggested you weren't confident in your ability to play. Looks like someone playing on what's already been discussed re: Hermy to get people off their back.

That is because I
was
confident in my ability to play, but now I see I've been doing stuff wrongly. I still have confidence in my ability to play now and in the future. My post was an explanation of how I played wrongly and how I abruptly will leave my previous views.
This is nothing like Hermy, who is like derp derp this is my view but omg is it correct pls don't vote me I'll do anything town wants me to do. I'm also not implying that pressuring me is wrong.

Why do you feel the need to bring up Hermy?

Because you did it first when you called yourself lynchbait (like Hermy)?

Oh, I misinterpreted: thought you meant I was trying to get people not to pressure me for the same reasons gg says hermy shouldn't be pressured.

I think you missed the argument in the part you quoted. I said I didn't like you not attacking any of the better playing players, not that an easy lynch is wrong. Looks like you're trying to twist my argument against you back to me.

Why are you concerned with who I'm attacking and not what I'm attacking for? You haven't addressed any of the reasons I've given for pushing Hermy or yourself, you've just said that it's bad that I'm going after easy lynches.

The only push that you did address was my Bro push, which you later called OMGUS and a deflection after defending me and sheeping me on him in the first place.

What's really weird is you are still calling him your #1 suspect, which means you think we are scum together and our little spat was theater, right? Which doesn't jibe with you defending me earlier.

Nope, BRO isn't lynchbait. I meant that you didn't do enough effort finding/pressuring scum other than that short case on BRO.

Lemme rephrase: most of the game you have been going for the weaker players, supporting other's cases instead of making your own.

Preedit:
Please quote me the reasons you voted me, I would definitely address them.
Also, I am saying that you go after easy lynches, that's my whole point, I'm not talking about the reasons you give here.

P-edit 2:
I think you should reread my whole 'woe-is-me-shtick', as you like to call it.

I've been going after players who did scummy things. Your attempt to retroactively call yourself an easy lynch and then do a hard reset because you know you fucked up is one of them.

The argument is that
you
have been going almost solely after the weaker players (and yes, I do consider myself a weaker player giving the experience of the most players here). Your lack of desire to find scum amongst the other players is what itches me. That is not tantamount to: I'm a weak player, please don't lynch me'. There is nothing wrong with lynching weaker players.

Please don't make me explain this again.

If there is nothing wrong with lynching weaker players then why is this even an issue? I repeated yet again that I am going after people who do scummy things. Your narrative doesn't include Bro so you just call that push "weak" itself when it wasn't.

There is no "lack of desire to find scum amongst the other players" because that isn't how scumhunting works. The other players that aren't Hermy/Bro/Yourself have looked town so far. Why are you so insistent that I go look over there when you haven't identified any of them as scum yourself?

This implies you think some of the better players are scum. Who?

I like the Trine vote.
