##vote ghug

I am less interested in the lurkers who may get subbed out and more curious about people I find doing nothing. This fits ghug for me, so here my vote goes for now.

Will be back in a bit - my 1 year old is having a bad day so far...
I would too if I had you as my father.

Luckily my father is more like HB.

Durga is my daddy.

It was almost definitely a fake townslip, but for durga I feel like that's NAI
7. You think that Durga would deliberately try to create fake town-tells, as town?
Yes. I do this too, FWIW. This could easily be a real towntell too, though. Flum has too much faith in people's willingness to read the setup.
9. It was Flum that I was asking. He was the one saying "for Durga I feel like that's NAI"?

Why did you respond to this as though I had asked you, and as if Flum had said something slightly different....?

It actually moved it towards scummier side for me sadly. ND knows very well his wagon wont be a "goldmine of information". Not any more than any normal wagon on D1. There being pissed off town votes on it actually strongly reduces the information. He truely doesnt care about the pressure Vash thing just because he skated to the endgame by lurking once upon a blue moon (we've all done that).

Also he blatantly kicked against the logic of it being a gambit to attract kills, saying he plays like this every game. Which is blatantly false, because all his games use different shades of playstyles. He has had plenty of games where he barely insults anyone, but just makes snide comments to show people his displeasure. This playstyle was done intentionally, and the mark is moving more towards scum wifom for me.

And before anyone asks: ND is a way more competent scum player than you guys currently imagine if he puts his mind to it. He is easily on Kgray's level.
He's the opposite of kgray. Hard to read but not strategic.
He does the exact thing as you do by toying with meta and perception
Yeah I actually found myself agreeing with parts of his essay on stirring the pot and it made me feel really dirty.

@HR - why are you voting emc? What did he do?
Why are you concerned about this vote specifically? He did post explaining it.
I missed his post. I still don't like his vote, but I did find his explanation.

I always reference Brainbomb as BB and I think most vet people also do it.
Yeah, not to defend the newby, but BB = brainbomb and Balki = Balki
Would you expect a newby to know that?
I expect him to not be as smooth about QT.

Please tell us how using dark mode vs standard mode is alignment-indicative?

Enlighten us with your pulsating intellect. We are agog with anticipation at the pure white light of insight that you must surely be about to deliver.

Skimming up to this point, what I've summarised is:

1) There's this whole oddly transparent veneer of sexism coating the whole "hurr durr who toxic" shit, ND's being a bitch, Durga is being dick in response, the responses to them compared to say, shit talk between bb and Jamie is totally different. Bleh. That and how the expectations of players are different, but not going to there at this moment.

2) Damo, you are too chipper and cracked one too many jokes again, ##vote damo

now imma go back and respond to quotes.

##vote emc

He seems to be doing far more shitposting than normal, and I'm struggling to think of a single opinion he's actually given - Instead he's alternated between weird buddying of Neph, pure shitpost, and making strange hedgey defences to cast doubt on other people's thoughts without giving any of his own. Usually I find emc to be quite townie, and I ain't getting that feeling at all this game.
emc never says anything of substance
I had to go back a few games to find a game he hadn't subbed into, but if you read his D1 in M57 and compare it to this game I find the difference to be extremely stark, actually.
Can you elaborate on those differences? I'm not seeing it.

Hamilton seems so different to me this game. More confident, maybe? Are other people noticing this or is it just because it's the first time I've had to figure out his alignment?
I have been a little irked on occasion, but that happens more in every game because I still haven't seen him as scum.

I do sense some difference, but im not sure if its an allignment shift. Ive found him hard to read in the last couple of games as well.

Fair enough, I bow to your research. My comment was top of the head flippancy tbf.
You don't care to know what that research is? You're fine just accepting a vague explanation that there are stark differences?

Unvote only counts if you had a valid vote first. You can ##vote no-kill if you want.
11. Did you mean to remove your vote for me?

If you did, thanks I guess, but I don't think you did mean to remove your vote - and I'd rather you answer me about why you and Bozo are conspiring to create a wagon on me for utterly shit reasons. Thanks very much.

Is there?

Because when I think people are making strong efforts to play entirely different, like limiting their post counts and trying to be as concise as possible and not engage in banter with other people as much as they have in the past, I don’t think their prior behaviors/posts should be mentioned on a way to towncred.

I don’t like how limited your assessment is on how hard Jamie is trying to change - go read the GT of last game, pretty sure I shoved his PMs into it.
Yeah, there totally is a difference. Using a similar entrance doesn't affect the rest of his game at all. Limiting his posts might, or watching instead of pushing his own reads definitely would. But I don't see how you can think he can't be both trying to improve his hunting game and also sticking with a NAI comment he likes to make at the beginning of the game. I'm not saying that entrance makes him towny, I'm questioning why you think it's contrary to him trying to change.
The contrary is he was using his entrance style as a means to say ‘hey, I am not scum because you could see that in the past when I was scum, I did this and I didn’t do that this time.’

If someone is actively trying to change their gameplay methods, making that statement is worthless and trying to buy town credit with a maxed out Visa.
He was not using it as an argument to prove his towniness. He could have replaced "townsfolk" or "townspeople" with "communists". That's ridiculous.

Aarodactyl is roughly what I'd expect him to do either as town or scum. I expect he'll be pretty decent at this game if he commits to it. I have no read on him though.
This is a weird comment, since you posted 3 times about how he was surprising you in this game:

I included two town reads (flum and nd) in another post around the same time. Bunny knows me in real life and most of his reactions to my posts seem to be him confused my initial shit posting.
It’s just jarring, as I’m not sure I can recall you joking like that ever. I’m realizing you may be very hard for me to read.
All three were in reference to his entrance and then discussion and responses to it and answering questions thereof. Since then his done other things more in character with the kid I remember.

I'm not sure I agree with this. I get where y'all are coming off, but I distinctly remember one game where I was sooooo sure Neph was scum and then they just weren't. This is probably that kind of situation.
What about their suspicion do you agree with? What do you think scum Neph would look like?
@ghug: reminder to reply to Balki's post from last night questioning my reads of ND and Neph.

I've demonstrated that I respond to questions not addressed to me enough at this point that I'm surprised you're still finding issue with it. I don't see how I responded as if Flum had said something slightly different. I said I thought she would fake a towntell as town. Then I said I do that too. Then I critiqued Flum's claim that it was definitely fake.
