The Third Fortnight (Game Over [Bonus Round])

[Gorkington]

I don't like it that much in the full context of the game.

can you elaborate on this a little more?

[T-Bone]

Oh God now I'm 'being helpful' too? You're killing me CES.

Yup! Try posting more if you want to commit scum tells more amenable to your tastes.

I think Kuroi's posted a bunch since then and he doesn't really look that likely to be scum; I'm not really clear as to whether T-bone's vote's still on Kuroi because he still believes it or because he hasn't found a better vote but I think it looks bad either way. And T-bone's recent interactions with Kuroi certainly seem devoid of any alignment probing or pushing.

[T-Bone]

Blah blah blah death tunnel blah blah I committed to a vote for a bad reason blah blah now I have to fabricate some after the fact blah blah

[Gorkington]

boring.

[hiplop]

I think davsto might be scum given the explanation tbones given

[T-Bone]

...what does one have to do with the other?

[Davsto]

...what does one have to do with the other?

[Katsuki]

actually you can do tbone or not. still, kats and muffin i'm curious about.

What's there to be curious about?

why he thinks you're town

You don't?

[KuroiXHF]

Looks like an organizational thing to prevent miscounting but what do I know

People in this game are too comfy and too good. Can't parse jokes from intent.

VOTE: Bulge dats my least favorite post so far

well now i blew my load

thanks

VOTE: the bulge

yeah ok let's push the bulge (aheha eAHE A)

VOTE: bulgey

VOTE: the bulge

Not bandwagonning at this stage is tantamount to collaborating with the enemy.

i have my doubts about this but okay you win.

vote: bulge

Fine, Anti, I was going to go for the bandwagon on scum, but let it not be said I'm unwilling to compromise.

Unvote, vote: bulge

WAGON HO~

UNVOTE, VOTE: BULGE

VOTE: bulge

wagon hoe

obligatory shit unvote:

unvote

Please correct me if I missed someone, but I quoted the posts I find interesting as it pertains to Bulge. I'm just going to list for ease's sake the players I'm going to write off as their vote being non-alignment indicative - or those who I don't find scummy because of their vote: JohnnyFarrar, Antihero, Marquis, Katsuki and probably Davsto.

Now this leaves us with a couple others: Gorkington, Bins and CES. I will repeat the quotes for reference.

Bins:
VOTE: the bulge[/quote]

yeah ok let's push the bulge (aheha eAHE A)
I'll be honest. There may be nothing wrong with this post, except that it gives me the worst gut feeling. At first, I thought that it was just a post I didn't like and that I'll just look over it and as long as nothing else that bothered me was posted, all is fine. Then I took a look at their ISO. Take a look for yourself. This user has nothing but absolute fluff. I'll actually go as far as to say that out of everyone in this game, he's posted the least amount - both in amount of posts, length of posts and content. It's fluff. Maybe he's due for a prod. Maybe he's coasting by, but whatever it is, it shows strong signs of coasting and the least amount of helpfulness to town. I'm making my reads as I write this post but for right now, I'll definitely mark Bins down as [at least]

lean scum.

CES:

Fine, Anti, I was going to go for the bandwagon on scum, but let it not be said I'm unwilling to compromise.

Unvote, vote: bulge

This struck me most because of the fence-sitting. This seems like the disingenuous, "I don't like where this is going, but I'm going to trust Antihero and so if this doesn't work out, he should take the blame because I'm just following his lead." I'm honestly conflicted with voting him when I researched more. Initially, I thought to myself, "This is such a rookie play," but this guy has been with MafiaScum for over a decade, so now I'm double thinking it. Then I'm asking myself if this is WIFOM psychology to screw with me, so now I'm not 100% sure. I'm not 100% sure he's scum now, so I'm going to UNVOTE: but leave him with a

FoS

. I don't know if he's scum, but I know that I found that to be scummy.

Going through his ISO, there are a lot of non-serious posts, a lot of vote switching and the rest is just screwing with me.

I didn't like this post for the same reason why I didn't like CES' posts. It seems to have an inherent "defense through following" scum-ring. Also, this post is either a joke or it's sincere. I don't get the humor if this is intended for a joke and I don't get the feeling that it's meant that way. There was barely any arguing from CES either, yet he just went with it. He then went through the motions with the unvote. It all comes across as strange and disingenuous to me. Maybe he has no passion for it, as intended in 234... although his tune seems to certainly change in 405 where he goes from depressed to condescending. He's at least pushing me, so I'm not 100% that he's scum

Remember in my last post when I said when I lose my train of thought, I have a terrible time getting it back? I went into this thread ready to find Gorkington because I swore I found something in his ISO, but now I can't find it and I'm pissed at myself so I'll probably search for like an hour after my post until I remember what I forgot. For right now, I at least want to get through everyone else with some sort of read.
Strong Town:
Lean Town: Antihero, T-Bone
Null/Unsorted: CES, JohnnyFerrar, Katsuki, Marquis, SnarkySnowman, Bulge, Muffinman (I'm guessing he was joking about being an innocent child), Reckoner
Lean Scum: Bins, Gorkington, Quilford
Strong Scum:

I'm hoping, with time, there will be less null/unsorted and there will be more diversity in my read list.

That's what I have to add, for now.

[T-Bone]

OH GOD YOU JUST HAMMERED HIM WITH THE BROKEN QUOTE

[Gorkington]

Muffinman (I'm guessing he was joking about being an innocent child)

yeah maybe.

[zMuffinMan]

Muffinman (I'm guessing he was joking about being an innocent child)

yeah maybe.

I thought muffin claimed Intolerable Cunt.

hey zmuff also you said you didn't really say you had any grand case for voting t-bone just some of his posts rubbed you the wrong way; do you agree with anything of what ces is describing in the part of his #323 i quoted in #332?

i don't think t-bone posted anything "protown", but i do think he was trying to come across as somewhat blase, which is generally a trait that looks townish (imo), while not actually posting anything insightful...

which is a trend that seems to have continued in recent pages from what ive skimmed

[zMuffinMan]

well i don't really know why it quoted your reads list there but since it did, im just gonna comment on how i don't think it's a great reads list... it seems somewhat fabricated but i can't put my finger on exactly why i think this

[Davsto]

it seems somewhat fabricated but i can't put my finger on exactly why i think this

Is it because it's in alphabetical order?

[Davsto]

(Don't worry, it took me a minute to realise, and at that point I'd already written about it in my catch up wallpost)

[Quilford]

You guys are doofuses
