Also not particularly keen about the gypyx shenanigans. Seems like a particularly confident push over very little. Feels like early scum distancing.
yes very good.In post 151, Green Crayons wrote:What is it about addressing the flaws in Hoopla's plan, at that precise moment, that caught your attention?

stayed because the "there is scum on my wagon" + <doesn't even know who is voting him because otherwise he would know that he isn't evicted> = manufactured last words = lying = ?!scum?!
switch back to ico when he realised it wasn't really relevant was good
there's a real kind of fluidity/extra layer behind this which both works @ surface and makes a lot of sense when he elaborates; makes me think his reads are RealIn post 216, Green Crayons wrote:btw i would suspect scum to deny faking itIn post 211, Grumpy Cat wrote:Green Crayons accurately ascertained Gypyx was faking a reaction after being fakehammered. Scum are less likely to take that accusatory route given they have no reason to think town!Gypyx is lying there, and no one else had seen his reaction as fake.
bc faking it for a reaction to a reaction test is lol
criticising my going @ the mechstuff was good
i need to work but his iso is consistently Believable thoughts which aren't interested in going with the grain and i think he has a really high level of fluidity. i can feel him moving through the thread in a way that is intuitive enough i think is pretty hard to fake.
apparently nobody can tell what i was actually talking about in this post (glare @ ico/dats) but do you like.. feel any feelings while reading this?

I mean, I imagine if they did it as scum it's because they figured they would do it as town, and not just something they pulled out of their ass.In post 721, Clover Ebi wrote:So you think wolf them just comes into the thread and makes up some persona and fakes an L-1?

can we consolidate on either Marquis or Umlaut and have a real bandwagon competition going?

yeah, the "picking up on the same things as me" was an entirely separate point from "posting relatable content", though i see how providing quotes for one and not the other inflates the perceived importance of it in a way that wasn't intended.In post 666, Datisi wrote:can you talk about this a bit more? like, is he picking up on things that you agree on that are game-content-related, not just "relatable"? because the first quote is complaining about the game speed, and the last one is complaining about the "dullness" of it (or the ability to make things up for townpoints? anyway), which i don't exactly take to be AI?In post 660, iamausername wrote:anyway, that's a huge tangent from the original question. Umlaut seems to be picking up on a lot of the same things i am, and he keeps posting extremely relatable content like this:
Spoiler: Umlaut posts
things like his progression on Something_Smart following the same trajectory as mine when S_S clarified that he has a somewhat loose definition of the word "plan", having gut scumread on DrD, being convinced to vote Iconeum specifically by 530, etc.
like, in general, his reads list seems to map pretty closely to mine, and that coupled with the aforementioned relatable content which suggests that he thinks about the game in a similar way to me adds up to a townread.
man i was probably already going to join the Marquis wagon when i thought this was just tiresome NAI bullshit, now i'm definitely inIn post 704, the worst wrote:(pardon fucked up timezones)

i find it pretty hard that the gypyx vote was for literally any clean-conscious reason.
the entire intro feels like it's constructed to be read a particular way.

Would be weird to bribe you to not vote yourself.

< insert a complaint about most of the game being a weird shade of null here >
can you talk about this
I will straight up disregard all reason if you have a PR dream again. You can come back and be like, “I dreamt that Locke is a N2 Bulletproof Multitasking Cop and Self-Targeting Doctor,” and I will go, “Okay, Locke kill it is then.”

finally, the first wagon battle.
umlaut vs. marquis
an intriguing contest. lets view their stats;
- number pick - #21
- draft position - 3rd
- posting frequency - 31/744
- avatar cuteness - 8/10
- number pick - #1
- draft position - 4th
- posting frequency - 9/744
- avatar cuteness - 9/10
~~
the town has narrowed things to two of the top four picks. both choices have remarkably similar cuteness and posting frequency, though you'd have to say umlaut edges marquis on content. are either of them actually scum? hard to say. number analysis views both these slots in the "hot zone™", but we perhaps haven't seen enough behaviourally to make this a slam dunk execution. role claims are looming to be a HUGE factor in determining which way this one will fall.
lets go to expert field commentator the worst for his thoughts.

Clarify “hot zone”.
