Unfortunately there isn't a minimum thinking requirement.

[Jamiet99uk]

I want Maniac to give a real reason why Aaro might be scum.

I'd like Snowy to explain why he wouldn't vote Celaph earlier when Rdr was doing so.

I'd like Rdr to give reads on Snowy, Maniac, and Celaph.

[Jamiet99uk]

Bloody Mary o'clock. Have fun, jerks - and find a better wagon than Aaro.

[Jamiet99uk]

(And hi, Business Lamp. If Snowy is scum, please make a noise like an angry possum).

[pyxxy]

hm rereading again and the two main things I don't like about pyxxy's d1 are

- they seemed to focus on damo pretty early on, but only hopped on damo once it was already a major wagon challenging aaro
- they stated that their approach to this D1 was directed by aiming "to force as many interactions between people as possible right now on D1", but they haven't been posting in a way that is consistent with that

- Yeah I felt like providing a real counterwagon to aaro was the best way to provoke interactions and discussion. The buzz around TheFlyingBoat had faded and so I opportunistically took the next opportunity to pile on someone besides myself.

- There are way more people talking to & about me than there were on D1 of M73. That's a success in my eyes wouldn't you agree?

Just checking before going to a barbecue. Have you been reading the thread? I specifically said I townread Celaph and Snowy and asked to people not vote them, what else you need for a read?

Maniac is a null.

[pyxxy]

Also Damo is hard to read D1, he could be scum, he could not. I thought Durga seemed town earlier.

I know you said you're heading out so this will likely miss you, perhaps someone else can answer in your stead.

Q: Damo is a fine wine that takes a day or two to mature?

That would align with how I felt about him after M73, revisiting his posts after his untimely demise as the N2 kill.

But if I write a post like this, I should probably change my vote...heh.

[DeathLlama8]

I feel like if I hated one main wagon and was ambivalent about the other main wagon before I had to leave for the day I would just vote for the counterwagon

that's just me though

- why didn't you try to get a damo wagon started earlier when you were talking about his meta? feels like that could've sparked more discussion at the time
- I didn't play M73 so I can't really answer that, but if you're trying to force as many interactions as possible there are far more provocative/discussion-inspiring ways to play than what you've been doing.

I also find it really weird that Damo went from saying my post made me town to then suggesting to start a wagon on me.

There were almost two hours between Damo's posts. It doesn't seem unreasonable for his opinion to change in that time. I'm more bothered by the fact that your response gives me the vibes that you are annoyed to be made a wagon instead of thinking through whether Damo was scum because of the switch.

I'm speedrunning some replies before a 4pm meeting. This is the first one.

That's fair. I didn't realize it had been 2 hours. That being said, I don't think he gave any reasons for his change of heart.

[aarodactyl]

the way the aaro wagon formed gives me weird vibes tbh - is the case on him just related to the giant reads post he did?

would strongly prefer damo/tfb over aaro/durga at this point

It feels really weird to me too. I'm not sure why it happened. I'm guessing it's related but I'm not so sure. I think damo kept suggesting it and then maniac started it out of nowhere.

[Durga]

hello i'm here for a bit

[BesharamSabi]

I have a zoom meeting till 7ish so I'm going to try to keep up with the game at best that I can.

Anyway I'm not a fan of either if these wagons. They seem off.

Aaro provided his reads and they were.... Fine for a low content D1. I don't understand why people scum read it? Yes it was a lot of fluff for people. He didn't produce a reads list out of random like someone said. I asked him to provide reads.

Maniacs reasons for voting/starting aaro wagon is weird and makes no sense. There are higher posters than aaro in this game.

Damo, I really don't understand that wagon at all. Where or why did it start? Also I find it weird that damo jumped on aaro wagon to cw him. Seems opportunistic to me. Can people on damo wagon explain? He's seems null in my book.

Anyway I'm open to changing my vote from Bona to anyone that actually makes sense because neither of these two wagons are giving what it's supposed to give.

[Durga]

well what makes sense to you sabi? give me options

[aarodactyl]

I feel like if I hated one main wagon and was ambivalent about the other main wagon before I had to leave for the day I would just vote for the counterwagon

that's just me though

I agree. I would at least vote for a wagon with someone else on it. It seems like he's just throwing away his vote which is kind of silly.

[President Eden]

We’re closing in on the end of Day 1. As y’all know, it gets quite hectic. We will be providing vote count updates with 30 minutes to go, 15 minutes to go, and 5 minutes to go. I highly advise using the bot (link below) to keep up in the meantime!

​DAY 1 VOTE COUNT 3
(live updates can be found here!)

aarodactyl (5): Maniac, Durga, rdrivera2005, snowy801, damo666
damo666 (4): Kakarroto, aarodactyl, celaph, pyxxy
Durga (2): Bonatogether, TheFlyingBoat
Bonatogether (1): BesharamSabi
pyxxy (1): DeathLlama8
snowy801 (1): Jamiet99uk

Currently aarodactyl will be killed at the end of Day 1 in approximately 01h00m.

​Everyone has met minimum participation and thinking requirements.

- Lead by example? Baaaaaaaaaa.

[snowy801]

Baaaaaaaa

[damo666]

I am voting aaro principally because I don't want to be a mk. And of course aaro might just be scum.

[Durga]

i'm happy with damo or bona as well
