This post is just so weird on both parts. The first part seemed like a forced joke, and the second part others have talked about already, why bring this up?

Has Xorxes actually solved anything for us yet? A lot of his posts are one or two word phrases like "buddying", "townie post", or "good observation", and his longest post is like three lines long. Xorxes usually has at least one detailed post by now where he assembles a scum team.

The burden of having the "good player" meta.
See, xorx is a solid null right now for me, and I think a lot of the scumreads are just people expecting him to be better. Is this fair xorx?

Do you feel like you're struggling more this game than average?

It isn't so much that Xorxes hasnt solved the game. It is more his posting style that bothers me. Every single post of his has been a short comment.

I think I am struggling at just about the same level as other games this early in the game. My D1, D2 has never been good.

What was Vecna’s good point about Balki?

+1

I’d like Ezio to answer this, and explain why he thinks the point is AI.

##VOTE Squigs

choo choo! All aboard the squiggs wagon.

1. Lots of EOD analysis info if he dies + good chance he was scum protected (no scum voted for him at eod at the least)

2. Many players with more experience playing with him thought he was scum based on meta. (Including conftown Tom who I've found to have very good day 1 reads)

3. His playstyle and posting noticeably has changed after he started getting suspicion. He started casual and he seems completely stilted now.

4. Weird wifommy "asking dead Tom" that suspicious people are trying to town read him on?

Flum, what conclusions would you draw based on how Squigs flips?

Uh this was vecnas good post about balki.
"Balki is just in full on scummode. Trying to ask for a mass-claim. Poking at Ezio's words to try and frame it in a pro-scum way. He came on before EOD, asked for people about a potential vote, probably saw that Squigs was gonna be alright, so he just vanished.'

Could you give an example of play style changes.

He’s still asking a ton of questions. And the shift to more serious questions is consistent with the strategy he stated at the beginning of the game. Starting with easy questions to build a baseline and getting to more serious questions.

Coming in with a clear plan of attack/following through could a sign of him trying to consciously shift away from his scum meta.

But I think his play has been consistent thus far throughout the game.

I agree with points 1 & 2 though. Tom has been a great when I’ve played with him previously. With him confirmed town I trust his reads.

I think 4, is as someone else said a giant hole of WIFOM.

Don't worry about defending yourself right now Balki. Just give us your reads. If they're good I'll plop you in my town category. Defending yourself probably won't.
