We now return to our regularly scheduled program...
------------------
Looker
Post Count: 36
Firstly, you can make the quote ISO numbers hyperlinks? That's awesome! I'm gonna need to start doing that.
Not sure how I feel about Looker. He's posting a lot (that's good), trying to push a bandwagon (that's good), but isn't really adopting much of a position on anything (that's bad.) I completely understand where you're coming from but you can't use your vote as a blind pressure tool without sharing your thoughts. The most telling was when you continually voted players until they answer 'who do you want lynched?". It's certainly something I want to know, but when you are formulaic as you are you're basicially absolving yourself of responsibility for you vote. Who do
you
want lynched? Give me a vote that shows what you think, not just want you want to know. And stop the recent spam-posting garbage.

mylenes
Post Count: 14
Once again, a player with a decent number of posts and no real position on anything. He voted kyle "just for pressure", which irks me - I'm a full supporter of pressure votes, but generally you should never have to refer to them as such (look at Looker - he pressure votes left and right but never has to say 'LOL THAT WAS A PRESSURE VOTE', it's clear by context), and doing so usually strikes me as a player trying to divorce themselves from being responsible for their votes.
And there's this gem of a point in his latest post:
Way to take up a strong position, chief.
However, I'm inclined to be a bit more lenient on mylenes because he's new. I like his current vote on scorpion. You've gotta work on your scumhunting and such more, but I'm willing to give you a bit of time and the benefit of the doubt to try to figure out the games dynamics.

Rhinox
Post Count: 21
Rhinox is in the 1000+ post club, and I really wasn't expecting this. A lot of set-up speculation and general information instead of analysis. His main thought was that kise is scum or mime, oh wait just kidding I agree he's probably town. And then he follows up by jumping on the scorpion wagon. Hey, rhinox, there are players in this game, and it'd be kinda cool if you, y'know, commented on their actions, and not just tried to play what-should-the-vig-do.

Another non-contributor. Man this game needs a kick in the ass. However, I will say that her
ISO 5 is the kind of actual contentposting (read: actually giving reads and not just talking about the setup) this game needs so if she gets back in here and continues to post content I will be a happy hito. But if not I will be (a/an) {some word that starts with h and communicates the idea of 'angry'} hito.
-------------------------
reckoner
post count: 19
reckoner is an odd one. I really like his style of posting; he's giving his reads a lot. This is what I like to see from a player. I want to know what happened to his
suspcison on rhinox. I don't like that he brought up his meta as a defense. I want to know if you agree with kyle's explanation on his 'I hate alt's, unvote' post, and whether or not you still think that makes him scum.
Overall I don't like quite a bit of the content reckoner has posted, but he's got a very good style and I see no reason to lynch him when his posts are giving me so much information into his thoughts. If he's scum/mime, he's one that's interacting enough that we can probably catch his buddy from his posts (or vice versa).

xscorpion
Post count: 27
For most of the way though, I'm totally cool voting for scorpion. If he's lazy, admits it, and doesn't show a particular desire to change, that's more or less it - he's gonna be an albatross around our necks and the sooner we remove him the better.
But his recent posts on Looker, despite the fact that his vote started as an OMGUS, have some merit. I don't agree it's particularly damning he unvoted kise, but it's certainly something to pursue. In short, scorpion seems to be doing a bit of honest-to-god scumhunting. If he starts to slip into lazy non-posts again I'll jump on to the wagon but for now I'm inclined to let him run loose.
---------------------
Anyway, I'm gonna go ahead and
vote: Rhinox
.
Next post (it should be right now, I just want to keep them separate) will be my thoughts on the set-up. Despite you guys talking it to death instead of actually playing the game I feel that there are a couple of points that need to be clearly said.
"Don’t buy a dozen eggs if you just want a hardboiled egg. Don’t buy a head of lettuce if you just want a salad. Don’t buy eggs and lettuce if you want egg salad because those are not the right ingredients." -Julius Bloop
I'm making a good and productive wagon, hopefully (and IMO, likely) on scum, and it is not good enough for you?
