Not sure if Elbirn is the best option for today, but him being online and disappearing without posting at all is pissing me off.

Yeah I dont pop into the thread if I dont have time to critically engage and being as I have no knowledge of anything thats going on I dont pop in. I dont know how you think I was online at like 7am when I wasnt, but nonetheless yeah thats a thing that COULD happen.

Are people finna lynch my slot, because I'd much rather we made scum shoot me. Can we work on that instead?

i looked at elbirns iso and i wanna say its his scum game
my meta on him is like 4 years old tho so idk
why'd you think it's his scum game?
every time i played with him as town he felt like
really really townie

he has the damp squib sorta feel that i associate with his scum game here

Interesting. It did seem like he could be coasting.

These two are the most opportunistic on my wagon. Most of y'all are content with voting me for being a null, bleh, activity-less slot. These two are searching for an excuse. I'm scum because I'm not being town enough, basically, but xtoxm's trying to fake something more substantial to say about "meta". And being adrift and unable to catch up makes me "coasting". Nah. Also Xtoxm's 1928 above strikes me as opportunistic in conjunction with his read/vote on me.

Like, a lot of you are voting me for doing fuckall and making no bones about it. I don't like it but that's fine. Sorry for not being better. Xtoxm is actively pushing that there's something substantial where there is not.

Oh good Creature is also town and has a brain in his head, I've read all of 10 pages of this game and I sorted Brigitte as town and idk what everyone elses problem is. Literally dismantle that wagon and shove it up my butt instead, at least she's playing the game.
In post 1970, skitter30 wrote:elbirn do you like scum or town more?
Man I hate to say such self serving shit but I've been really wanting a scum game since I haven't played one since like 2015, and yeah if I were scum I'd have much more engagement/interest here.

@Skitty and Chara, I don't feel like grabbing the quotes, but I acknowledge that you have both in fact reached out to me and said some stuff and I'm gonna try to get to that. Skitty as I recall wanted me to look at some posts somewhere and look at some interactions...Chara actually I think you just redirected me to this fact and didn't have any questions of your own. I think. idk I'm trying.

Aaand I will acknowledge that I haven't put in the time/effort that this game deserves, even if I am high-key actually overwhelmed by the game size ballooning since I replaced in. Like...Most of you don't know this having not really played with me ever but I do so much better in slower paced games and there's a reason I don't venture out of the mini normal/theme sized games anymore. It's cuz I don't have the time for it, I get bogged down, wind up irrelevant, and then replace out. This pace is honestly on par with a large game imo and I thought I was getting into something I could handle when it was only 30+ pages and now I feel like I've done an irresponsible thing but I'm trying but I am actually pretty much looking forward to hopefully living to day 2, saying fuck you to day 1, and just moving forward with information gleaned at that point. I drank all my coffee and then wrote a large excuse OH NOOOO

Some of the pages can definitely be skimmed over without missing much.

Right yeah that's a thing.
Uhh. Do we know how to stop the nightless yet, and either way, do we WANT to stop the nightless? If this is a whole conversation that's already been had I can just, like, fuck off and read that I guess.

From what I have read of Skitter her tone/play style seems basically identical to the game we just finished with the three of us...Uhh was that Prey? Yeah. You know what's funny is I bought it and I'm staring at the main menu like "am i gonna get to this today", but yeah THE POINT IS, skitter seems like what I've seen of her playing as town so

It's not based on the first 10 pages. I felt those were pretty null.

Like the most real tone thing you have going for you is this weird ego self perception you have. Which is what I believe is the most real thing I have seen about your posts.

Your stances are not much there under the surface. Like just examine the case you made on me. More than half of it was a direct copy of what I said about you, except add in things like "didn't know how to act around fake hammer" and "awkward scumread on me". You even added the confidence level I had on you as your next post. Except instead of what I said as 85% you are 90%. Woah. You are a legend.

Your position on NMSA is "newbtown". The easiest. Laziest. Argument. Ever.

My question for people townreading you is are they townreading the ego part thinking that the scum would be more agreeable or something?
In post 1209, Brigitte wrote:People really should think about how easy it is to make an argument for NMSA being newbtown is.
What criteria do you need to make to fill that argument?
Establish the player is new.
Then call them newbtown and mislynch bait.

And there you have it. Don't need to process thought patterns. Don't need to address actions really. In fact I don't think Ank has even responded to one post by NMSA, instead you just proxy defend him.

All this actually makes me think that if Ank is scum. NMSA is definitely town.
Wait is this what I'm supposed to read over, brigs case? Or how Reck reacts to it?

Cuz this case sucks ass lol why is she trying to convince reck that reck is scum, and then rail about how lazy it is to call someone newbtown
while positing that that player as town

i think i like your reaction to being flashwagoned
im basically annoyed at the game state and that the same people keep spamming useless shit instead of looking to kill someone
so im openly wagoning anything that isnt a tr for me
i can understand this looking opportunistic fypov
my preference is to kill within the 200+ posters
do you sr any of them

@Tris

1. Man I said multiple questions and all you said was "nope"
2. Yagotme, I've never played with Skitter scum. I'm not one for """META""", but if I play a game with someone and they seem tonally similar to another game I generally run with it. I suppose I can't verify that she doesn't tonally sound like this as scum, but that's never stopped me from having a shitty read on anyone before.
3. I will read Page 49. Soon. Maybe now.

@Xtoxm

Yo gameface off I thought about this game for about 2 seconds and went "Wait, it's cyberpunk bioshock. Why have I not already absorbed the entirety of this franchise into my heart", and then promptly bought the deluxe edition on PSN. Pretty solid use of $20. Still haven't played it!

Pedit: I see more posts but it's time to have the coffee poops srry
