Mini Normal 2076: Game Over

[PenguinPower]

Good, good. You?

Who are your town reads atm?

[Performer]

I've been through some things. Lost a job recently, got a new one recently. Moving out of the bay area . Looking for an affordable apt or studio.

I have schadd & vork so far as town. Still sorting others.

[PenguinPower]

Sorry to hear, but glad you got a new one.

Talk to me about your schadd read.

[Performer]

@pp
my read on schadd has been due to his posts 50, 87, 91, 103. There was a game where I was scum and luckyotter was town, my agenda that game included pocketing lucky to eventually get him mislynched. and he did get mislynched later in the game because I added into the paranoia that lucky was town, and I knew people would get paranoid that nobody could be so townie that long AND live so far.

schadd moderated that game...so I'm going off that basis of his read on lucky in this game. not sure if lucky is scum or town though, but I'm working off the townblock from what's been posted so far.

Sorry to hear, but glad you got a new one.

yeah, the new supervisor and another new person in upper mgmt, I'm not sure what exactly transpired but it made me certain on one thing. how your mgrs manage folks and if they work hard or give up on you in a company, is worth a ton if not more than the income made in a role.

I moved on and I'm not looking back at that place .

Now that I'm less grumpy than last night, hi everyone. FYI, my username is commonly abbreviated to CDB.

Not a lot for me to get my teeth into in those first few pages. I've played a couple of forum games here and there over the last couple of years since when I used to be really active, but holy cow this is the biggest case of culture shock I've had as an old so far. It might take me a little time to get my head around reading people posting in this kind of style, and I'll try to be patient despite my first instinct being that I kind of hate it. Zuckerberg, I'm going to straight-up ask you to stop the in-character shit; I think it's pretty funny but it's always really crap to have to read a player through an extra layer of artifice that they're putting on (given that artifice is the main thing for which you have to look when you scumhunt). It's going to be tiresome and anti-town. I don't really expect you to agree to this, but I wanted to get my objection on record in as honest and polite a way as possible.

Vorkuta - have you got what you wanted out of your self-vote?

Performer - if you were happy to name your two townreads when PP asked, why not name them as a matter of course when writing 124?

VOTE: MaryJoLisa for this post - this doesn't seem like a protown attitude.

Welcome aboard!

Fair warning: we're also playing with Not_Mafia who's going to be waaaaaay more fun

You're like the first person to acknowledge it so *shrugs*

[ChannelDelibird]

What were you hoping for?

[MaryJoLisa]

You're like the first person to acknowledge it so *shrugs*

I thought I acknowledged it.

[Vorkuta]

Not "explicitly"

Ah well, it looks like I don't have the gravitas to pull anything off with it.

Noted, but I'm pretty sure he is *not* going to stop.

What's the in-character Zuckerberg thing? Everyone has been mentioning it. Is that a reference I'm supposed to get?

[Vorkuta]

I mean Zuckerberg is pretending to be Lt Commander Data

no

and is putting in quite a bit of effort in parodying that persona.

This will make it very difficult to read his sentences/tones/genuine..ness and will just make the game even more complicated than it needs to be.
Like if I were to comment in rhymes or RAP

hi LUV

, that would make just reading my posts painful, LET ALONE trying to determine my alignment from them.

We have a few "parody/gimmicky" alt accounts here and there and people have mixed opinions on them.
CDB is against them

The player "Zuckerberg" is acting as Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg. Review his posts and you'll see it.

Ninja'd so hard

I saw that on the first page.

That should be prohibited imo.

[LuckyOtter]

Performer! I missed you in the list. Sorry bout that.

CDB I like you already. I don't expect everything to be super serious around here but this is a bit nuts. That aside, I don't see what makes MJL's post necessarily anti-town. I can see greener town asking that question.

If Zuckerberg is just being a troll I'm going to move my vote back over here: VOTE: Redemption

[Gamma Emerald]

Rap alts are fun

[GuyInFreezer]

Zuckerberg is being replaced.

VC next page.

[Vorkuta]

Oh
I'm sorry...

[MaryJoLisa]

But I like Zuckerberg.

[Gamma Emerald]

Well that happened

[MaryJoLisa]

That sucks. We were a *bad room!*

[Gamma Emerald]

Well at least our data isn't being Zucked out of us now
