So what are your thoughts on humor and Hectic and Taylor in general.
Firstly I think your take is super bad. What should I have been talking about on p4 that was so important that I shouldn't have pointed out a wierd post from Taylor? From my pov the only thing of substance was the mini wagon on Mage and his scum read on DS.. And I commented on that in . I wasn't a fan of Vecna calling that "try hard" and throwing shade when I'm *gasp*
PLAYING THE GAME!
Its like he's trying to shut down content and wanted me to be a fluffy little troll. So yes, I don't think there was anything worth commenting on from p2 and 3.

Well, Taylor is clearly a gimmick alt. nothing they've said has been particularly great or bad so im null here. I don't

wich is why I asked about it. Hectic is a troll. Anyone that says he's is a big fat liar. I mean, he may believe that trolling and doing some kind of slayers gambit might be good play or something but my opinion is that he's a troll and doesn't particularly add much to a game. Humor is fine to an extent. I like seeing more posting and its generally good for town but getting this 150-200 page d1 that are mostly fluff and devoid of much content is both bad for the town and not as funny as ppl think they are. Although I'm a hypocrite b/c when I joke I think its dunny but think most others are just annoying.

It's fine to comment on it, but your response read as 'I don't realize this is a joke' since you were taking it super seriously. Again, as I said in the post you quoted, I don't care about the content of the post or your response to it, more how/whether you took it seriously. Taking it seriously indicates a
weird
headspace in how you're approaching the game and I'm not going to understand any of your perspectives until I understand that viewpoint that I currently can't get.

Hectic has a very good win rate and is a great player based on the hundreds of irl game I've seen him play. I think you're letting your dislike for joking around cloud you on his amazingness.

You uh... you think my joking around is funny... right? :neutral:

-Blossom
Also, exactly this. Nero as town will usually just complain about people making shitty jokes and try actually produce meaningfull deductions from it. This just felt like he was trying too hard to find a way to do that.

I don't really think Nero has been defensive in those posts.
He clearly just scumreads Vecna for what he perceives as misrepping him. There's no real push on Taylor or Hectic in his posts.

With the exception of superbowl9, the locktown reads are 100% locktown, zero chance of ever being scum, ever. They are locked town because they are just not scum.

This is, admittedly, largely from meta (and thus also why I say 'with the exception of superbowl9' above, who I've zero meta of). I know the ins and outs of Nero's towngame and scumgame and this is 100% his towngame and literally any player who has seen Nero as town and scum would be able to tell the same, he's literally one of the easiest players onsite to read. I am fairly extensively familiar with Vecna's towngame. I am, admittedly, less familiar with his scumgame, I have to confess, but this is also 100% a perfect match to what I know Vecna's towngame to be, so he's town, too.

The superbowl9 read comes from more or less a very strong overwhelming feeling of gut-town, basically, in thinking overwhelmingly, "I don't see scum doing this, especially not newbscum". That sort of audacity just radiates town to me. I don't have any familiarity with superbowl9, but it's just the sort of thing that
feels
town. If I were to have a locktown read be wrong, it'd be this one, obviously, but I don't think it is wrong because I think that the call to locktown the slot is justified.
In post 486, Bell wrote:Yeah, sorry Nero, I'm not going to be attuned to this at all at the current pace.
4 games to follow.
For the record, have no familiarity with Bell, but this series of posting did make me finally develop a lean on the slot, and it is thus:
VOTE: Bell.
I like the thoughts on superbowl here actually. I think im going to sheep that read

my impression on Superbowl is the opposite. They seem too confident from their last towngame so i think it's scummy. Also i didn't like their weird questions aimed at me that seems like something you'd ask to make someone look bad no matter what they answer.
