oh I wouldn't really say it's no history, we seemed to work well together for the very very brief period we were town reading each other in Forest Fire-game although that was a hydra of him/Regfan and not just him, and I've been in 2 of his games.

I know when this started I kinda sorta would have liked to have had this game go better between us two than FF did (before you ask yeah I will push someone if I think they're being disingenuous even taking this into account) and I think he'd feel the same way.

Eh, that wasn't meant to be a downplay, more of a style-commentary. Guess the wording wasn't optimal.

In post 527, borkjerfkin wrote:AP: I'm giving AP room, and I'm not entirely sure what I expect from AP, but it isn't what I've seen so far. Every experience I have with AP has involved him taking a pretty invested approach to the game; granted I have mostly played scum vs him but:
in X-men where I was town and he was town we were at each other's throats the whole time for a pretty niche reason and I am kind of throwing that out
in Maestro's game where I was scum and he was town he had a HUGE global presence and was a major town leader and eventually caught me.
in Tales of You where we were both scum he pretty much took potshots at me the whole game despite being mostly townread and actually caused me to tilt a little.
as such it's difficult for me to establish a baseline here; I'm a little put off by the fact that his not lynch list consists of three people despite throwing townreads around early
I know I'm being more reserved than I can be. In Xmen mafia I was a vigilante and that gave me a bit of extra ire. Getting lynched as a vig was ridiculous, and that game had a lot more talk about strategy going on because of the setup. That should have been an easy town win. I really dunno how that one got away.

I'm not too happy with the state of my reads right now. I had a bit too many townreads and none of them were really that solid. Tammy's posts really hit a "wow thats town" note today which is the first thing in the thread to really speak that way to me thus far. So kinda puts things in perspective. Nacho townread is based on an intuition that he wouldn't be acting this way as scum, even considering WIFOMy implications. BRO's miller claim is pretty concrete and I sort of believe it for reasons mentioned. His absence is a little worrisome but not terribly.

I'd probably add Pieguy and Empire to my not lynch at this point. Less sure of these reads, but both hitting pretty consistent good points. GIF is a tier-2 worthy gut town read, so similarly not willing to lynch.

Nati is drifting to the null end of my reads. I'm less certain of you, but that may also be influenced by Mara's opinion. I did like this post of yours.

I'm actually fairly null on Ceph. Slight town lean I suppose, but not really sure. Same for NotScience who just looks like he normally does to me.

Syryana and Malakittens are probably my top picks, and thats largely PoE just based on them not feeling town relative to other people.

i could vote gm, mara or mala right now, i guess, but i don't feel especially great about any of those things

also on principle i'm not going to vote the way nacho tells me to until he tells me why i should.

In post 586, Empire wrote:Yeah, the blatant "I don't give a fuck" attitude is something I like but I have no idea if this is just a symptom of GIF the player rather than the alignment.


The answer to this is that if GiF were scum you wouldn't be having this conversation because you'd have forgotten that GiF is in the game.

Cool I'm caught up now.

Not lynching in {AP, Tammy, NS, GiF, Pie}

Would prefer lynching in GM and Mala

This game is feeling a little too easy/circlejerky, though, which makes me uncomfortable.
