A few reasons, one I can't apply any more pressure than a vote and it didn't work so I backed off, I will be less likely to do this latter in the game but as of now it would probably have been a waste of time. I've played with people like him before and his lack of actual wording or explanation is not in the slightest a scum/town tell for those players. Also since the unvote I have actually started to lean a town feel for Aegor.

You could probe a bit beneath the surface with some questioning, rather than just throwing a vote down and unvoting after what is a pretty underwhelming response?

Is it still opportunistic if AD has never played with Jake before?

AD has played with me twice

Does that change things ?

On the other hand I've played with Jake before and I'm more than willing to wait for an actual post and let this slide.
If you've played with Jake before, wouldn't you know that's his opening post in just about every game? (In fact, I'm fairly certain he mentioned it was his opening post every time...) In which case, why is it tempting?

Any thoughts on the game so far AJ?

Town shouldn't need to force posts to make people read them a certain way and that post was exactly that. Only scum need to manipulate people's perceptions

Why were they forcing the post instead of just posting?
That's what I'm interested in: the main point of your post here is that they forced it instead of posting it. Do you not think town calls themselves town?

i'm referring to this post

this is different than just calling themselves town.

I'm not sure why you are asking me why it took so long to come up with my response, when it didn't take me a long time to come up with my response.

sangres · Post Post #108 (ISO) » Fri Apr 11, 2014 9:00 am

How is it different?

Jake from State Farm · Post Post #109 (ISO) » Fri Apr 11, 2014 9:00 am

It's over the top.

Because she said Bert sent her a message?

fferycho when you're done with Jake I have a question!

Jake from State Farm · Post Post #112 (ISO) » Fri Apr 11, 2014 9:05 am

Cause they posted it in the form of a question. It struck me as odd so I'm rolling with it. It's a gut thing, you wouldn't understand.

I think your case is probably bad but I think you know that.

What does it hurt to keep the vote on? Why not vote someone else?

I've played with people like him before and his lack of actual wording or explanation is not in the slightest a scum/town tell for those players. Also since the unvote I have actually started to lean a town feel for Aegor.

For the record, once there is actual content, I will provide explanations.

Just so this does not get forgotten.

VOTE: Hello Kitty Creampuff because annoying.

I just wondered the reasoning behind this question?

Well if I'm reading his play correctly questioning more really wouldn't have goten me anywhere, I've played with simillier play styles before. So I'm fairly confidint I did the right thing.

No it doesn't because the way it was presented. It was a naked vote, as scum it would of allowed him the opportunity for people to start piling votes without knowing it is normal play style, but since it lacks explanation he has the ability to play it off like he didn't vote for that reason (or it was a joke) if Jake called him out on it and provided evidence.

Without him knowing Jake it's just a plain opportunistic joke but the extra safety from it being naked doesn't really apply

Does that make sense?

Also bolded parts are mine.

Jake from State Farm · Post Post #119 (ISO) » Fri Apr 11, 2014 9:12 am

Why do people act like naked votes are bad?

It's also an easy enough way to increase pressure. I didn't really get anything useful out of our interaction, as was expected.

I see. I didn't particularly feel like it was an insightful question since anything could happen in the time between two posts. But I understand the motives.

Do you think Jake's lack of a reaction towards this pressure, other than "no", is telling?

When's the last time you've had a hydra partner unexpectantly drop you in a game, jake?
