Random Question Stage. That's the term for doing it to hit the game off, as a sort of counterpart to the more standard Random Voting Stage. (My experience is that it doesn't work all that well and tends to just end in a bunch of people arguing about whether bothering with a RQS is scummy, but again, it doesn't hurt to have that information later.)

It's probably not accurate to call it that on Page 8, but those are the same sorts of questions.

Then in this case, LoHa's RQS was terrible. For some reason he picked out one of the later people to misinterpret goodmorning's posts, said it was somehow good, and went on to create a WIFOM based conversation out of it. WIFOM is something that is easily made up so I don't even see why a conversation should revolve around it and his conversation was based off of a misunderstanding in the first place. So no, his RQS should not be interpreted as townie in any way whatsoever. The fact that he tries to continue with it even after learning that the premise of his questioning was false is not something I like either.

Huh? LoHa has nothing to do with this. We're talking about OceanWind's questions, the ones about people's alignment preferences and posting rates.

(Well. Actually I'm talking about Sakura's reaction to OceanWind's questions, but close enough.)

OceanWind? I feel that the guy is town for now. It's hard to judge him when he refuses to take part in conversation, but it'll be interesting to see how his reads develop over time.

Thing is i haven't read Ocean's posts in detail because everytime i start reading his quote wall my eyes start glazing around and my mind starts slipping away, hence my previous post about me wanting him to just make a concise case instead of just quoting things if he has one.

You don't seem to know that you're talking about Sakura's page 1 posts.

@lordj what about my play seems peculiar to you?

@Ether I'm watching a movie about surfing and skatebowrding. ME! On MY TV via MY flashdrive. I downloaded it, I had to convert the sound from DTS to dolby digital andnthe cut it in two because fat only supports filesizes of 4 gb tops. And now I'm reading about you not wanting to hear more about ME and I'm like.. Pff yeah right. I made that sound with MY mouth. Childish? Not even 10% compared to you.

slightly town on silver and goodmornin

goodmorning- asking questions of everyone feels like hes actually trying to figure this thiing out instead of just going with whatever fits
silver- the read is slighty less good but said town because i didnt see anything that made her stick out as skummy as of yet being decently active not looking to just skirt by and from what i can tell not trying to keep away or distance fro anyone

I don't like how you are avoiding answering questions people are asking you or responding to comments. Do you have opinions on anyone outside of GM? Also, why is GM scum?

- town lean primarily because he's a newbie, but be wary. I don't like how he came into the thread trumpeting that he was a newbie and I'd like to see whether he keeps pulling the newbie card or not.


Why is being a newbie mean he's a townread?
