That was long after he voted me. Looker made a similar complaint, before Krazy voted me, but had a weird posture with respect wrt to actually asking me to change it, so I didn't. Looker also apparently remarks on how people pronoun him without asking people to change it so he's a funny bunny.

I did want to see if I could manage to get through a whole game on pink font, because I usually forget sometimes. I was going maybe ask about it more but he kind of afk'ed after complaining and I kind of don't want to change my posting for 1/4th of a slot, I'm very pro Krazy but very antihydra.

WRT Elmo: see . Her interaction with the thread in general since then doesn't reek of agenda or really anything that makes me think scum; the irritation with Looker (e.g. ) is a good example of this. The way in which she's complained about the hydra I mentioned initially putting me off but the consistency of it reads as genuine annoyance at having a slot that she thinks is annoying to sort/deal with as town. Initially I thought her RVS was slightly bad, voted her without anyone else I really wanted to; then realized all this.

WRT Amrun: you're precisely right. Me and Looker, probably both town, remained on the wagon for half a day phase and it never actually took off after that... that's literally the definition of a resisted wagon.
In post 1024, implosion wrote:(where "never actually took off" means no one else ever actually committed to it until deadline scramble, and again, I think the people who were on her are at deadline were all town)
I'm still waiting for
Elmo
to engage with me more, but I was not satisfied with their replies to me so far. The consistent annoyance about this hydra could come from scum trying to minimize a slot with multiple voices, and is harder to predict. That's the basis of quite a few grievance's against this slot from what I've understood, or at least one's that have been brought up to me.

So you think
Looker-Elmo
interactions this past page or so are T/T?

And what do you think of the votes on
Amrun
that weren't present at deadline?

As someone who's been shit on for bolding, I sympathize. I don't know if he can really do anything about the font, but I'm definitely not convinced by his read to change mine on you.

Your slot has been so muddied its hard to tell where any of your heads were. The fact that I was called an "alt" in this game by one really got under my skin. And no it's NAI. I have this undying hatred for hydras. Like to the point I want them dead in every game.

My issue is this why are there 4 heads of this hydra and all of a sudden it got quiet from them? And now picked up all like nothing happened.

I don't really remember him trying to affect the game much there. He was mostly just posting reasonable things, giving reads, and making votes with a normal amount of explanation.

But here he seems much more dynamic and much more concerned with actually getting people to understand his opinion and trying to understand theirs.

What do you find offensive about being called an alt? Also, I agree - I would expect a four-headed hydra to be four times as active, even if I did accuse them of being a hyperposter near gamestart.

That's disconcerting. I'm assuming this will be sorted before deadline?

That sounds horrible. My hope is that it's something you can handle.

  • @Team STRQ: "Elaborate" is vague - is there a specific piece of information you would like to know? You mislynched Wooper and are trying to Heaven someone who voteparked on a potentially bussing vanity wagon, so I don't know how much information I feel comfortable telegraphing for you.
  • @Elmo: Do you feel you guys can get this done with no NKs?

I was vague, but to be clear, there's something scummy he did multiple times in his scum game that he hasn't yet done here. I need to see a town game though and another scum game to see if it is a scum trait or something particular to that game.

I've been about my reads, and they have not really changed since then. I still feel quite good about all of Ame, Looker, and Elmo. I don't think that specifically *annoyance* is the tactic of someone trying to "minimize a slot with multiple voices".

I could easily be wrong on one of those people, etc. Or more! I'm not perfect! But I don't see any reason at all to change those reads yet.

See that more so I can do but it's going to take a day or two. I'm right in the middle of a work grind as well.


Also the hydra wants me to engage but how the hell am I to know who I'm talking to? Even if they sign how long am I waiting on a response from one head? There is a big issue on why I've never bothered with them. And don't bring committee into this.

Incidentally I'm curious how much we actually should care about heavening town here, from an EV perspective. Made a quick and dirty program; it says if we heaven scum today, our EV is 20%. If we heaven town, 40%. So uh. Maybe we should not do this just to sort someone?

I might have fucked up the program because it was VERY quick and dirty but.
