I really disagree with this post on a bunch of points:BunnyGo wrote: ↑Wed Nov 27, 2019 4:45 amOk, Tom comes into the game quite pleasantly (by the way, anyone wants to include Vapor on this...whatever. I liked Vapor but I'm tired and not going to ISO it now).
Tom immediately gets to work. Comments on what he's seen. And (correctly IMHO) calls out rdrivera for his strange behaviour:
Draws Xorxes into a short discussion. It's nice:Tom Bombadil wrote: ↑Mon Nov 25, 2019 11:17 pmWell this is pleasant.
Bo - stop confusing people
##vote rdrivera
Pointing out the merit of a wagon (of his scumbuddy) but finding a way to park a vote on another wagon is classic scum rivera
He even (correctly...probably...) calls me out as town. Who knows, maybe he's even correct:Tom Bombadil wrote: ↑Tue Nov 26, 2019 1:03 amI sort of agree. Its not damning in a sense that he is confirmed scum, but its noticeable and I think warrants a vote considering I don't have much to go on. The difference between you doing it and him doing it is that you found you way back to the Bob wagon. He cast shade on Bob and never voted him. I know rivera occassionaly misses EOD's but I won't allow that as an excuse.xorxes wrote: ↑Tue Nov 26, 2019 1:00 am
This is the post Tom was referring to. I can see rivera as Bob's teammate posting this, but I can also see town rivera posting this. I also voted for Computer because Bob's wagon was too big and had no competition even though I had some suspicion of Bob, so I don't really fault rivera for trying to start another wagon. Voting for some other wagon that already had some traction would have been more effective, but maybe he didn't like any of the alternatives. So, not enough for me to vote for rivera today.
In any case we need to sort this ND/Chaqa mess.

Spends a bunch of time discussion ND/Chaq (as we all did):

And most of his analysis was short but on point (the opposite of e.m.c. for those of you reading along).
Then he allows himself to be distracted by this meaningless stuff from FlavorFlav:
Overall, my impression from Vapor continues: I townlean, and I like.Tom Bombadil wrote: ↑Tue Nov 26, 2019 4:47 pmI had no impressions?
I mean, I read the role before I read the game, so I wasn’t exactly focusing on what vapor said since I already knew my role. One less person to deduce.
1: Rdrivera's scum meta is to BUS. Bus hard, bus properly, and look good doing it (Tom knows this). That post of Rdrivera was actually the only one I thought looked good for Rdrivera. He had set himself up already to go back to voting bob if it became needed, but he never used it. Also the sentiment of Temasek based on tone resonated strongly with me, which is always good when Rdrivera is feeling similair thoughts to me.
2: Tom doesnt mind Xorxes becaus "he found his way back onto the wagon". He found his way back onto the wagon 1 minute before deadline, after 2 people shifted putting it on 6-4 with that little time to go. He knew bob was dead when he voted. This is exactly what scum would do, so I really dont know why Tom feels this looked good on Xorxes. This is not the critical thinking Town-Tom shows.
