To spell out my anxiety further, I am not seeing enough people engaging with the game right now, and it is making me struggle to engage with the game. We need a critical mass of people actually playing.

Too many trolls and shirkers. Come play!
Excuse me. I am here.
Yes but irony is lost on you.
Your comment that "we need a critical mass of people actually playing" was intended as irony.

I see.
This is my potato. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My potato is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my potato is useless. Without my potato, I am useless.

No, it was a different post. Let's never speak of it again.

Balki, (1) what is your current view on Sweetandcool's gimmick of endvoting you and not posting, and (2) what do you think about Foodcoats seeking to attack anyone who is voting for Sweetandcool?

(1) I think it is disrespectful and boring, and says nothing about alignment.
(2) I don't have that impression of Foodcoats's activity.

Yeah, but do you really have any idea?

I ask because I have no idea. I don't really even have any leaning on anyone right now. Do you really have reads? Am I just bad at this?
I'm not saying these are infallible and timeless soul-reads. They are initial impressions based on my global stereotypes of each player. This is a process all town players must go through.

For example, I suspect that you suggesting you are bad is in fact indicative you are scum. It does not mean you certainly are scum, but you are more likely to be scum based on what I know of you as a player. Other players might make a similar statement but not be scum indicated.
Oh, I didn't suggest I am bad. But that's an interesting read.
I think your "Am I just bad at this?" statement may have been intentionally disarming.

Or were you suggesting that I'm bad at this? :lol:

I am not attacking; I am questioning, which is the entire purpose of the game. And I am doing so for a purpose that I would argue is clearly beneficial to town, whether or not my own personal read is correct.

Sweet is likely town here and the people voting for him are likely lazy readers, opportunistic scum, joking, or new.

It seems pretty mild to me. I don't agree with your characterization of "seeking to attack anyone who is voting for Sweetandcool."

Isn't there something more interesting we can talk about? Who are your top three town reads and why?

It is too early to have many strong townreads and, as you ironically said, several people have hardly contributed.

I am currently townreading you because you seem very invested in the game and you are keen to get people to provide meaningful responses to things.

I am inclined to townread Vecna because he seems quite natural.

At a push I would also say that I townread JustAGuyNamedWill but that's mostly vibe.
This is my potato. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My potato is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my potato is useless. Without my potato, I am useless.
