Micro 975: The Shape of Water [END]

I don’t think it was “obviously” a gimmick
But even then I’m just socially inept IRL so that’s not a great reason to SR me, if that’s your reasoning?

[The Bulge]

if nothing else, referring to himself in the third person should have done it, but that's not important. it's the toneshift that stood out most to me.

there isn't a lot I can point to that makes you lean scum to me, i think to a certain degree i just always read you as scum.

:/
Well okay then

I’m really liking Infinity’s posts but punpun’s aggro Creature push is kind of weirding me out. @punpun, you have two people in this game who have meta on that slot including your #1 townread who don’t want to fade him, so why are you pushing him this hard?

You weren’t too concerned about Creature before I vetoed your Alchemist push.

And it reads quite differently to me than Infinity’s no vote deadline concern. I’m really not getting town vibes from that push at all.

Sigh, because there's no direction and we need a elim. Creature is our best lead, even if it's not confident. Why as scum do I need to go hard aggro on Creature, considering he's not even got us in the scumpool, and we were under no threat at the time?

~pun

what makes creature our best lead? creature seems to be a slot thats void but might be sortable later. seems like an easy slot to push through a mislim on

Bulge, what pings you about how we converged on Alchemist?

~pun

Spoiler: posted 8 seconds apart

I dislike Creature's attitude and outlook of the game immensely, but I also think he's town for it.



Alchemist feels kinda of awkward this game. He lacks personality in his posts and he's being pretty formal/serious. I don't know if that's a scumtell for him specifically but I'm too lazy to check right now, and I think overall, it's probably a slightly scummy thing on average. Oh, also, I realise part of this is due to the way Alchemist capitalises "town" and "townread" and terms like that; I've always found that weird and scummy for some reason. I'm trying to filter that part out though and I still get the same general vibes.

VOTE: Alchemist

~pun

i am too tired to really post coherently and i should try to post at more decent times, but i still think gamma is town. as things have progress i've found myself agreeing with a lot of his thoughts on things (mostly regarding taylor who i still have a not-great feeling about, especially given her interactions with infinity. she also seems as if she's trying to disengage with pressure being placed upon her on this page which makes me even more).

pun and i talked some though and we both have the same thoughts about alchemist. my townread on him has dwindled as the game moved onward, and he feels as if his posts are stilted in a way that other people aren't. i do wonder if part of that is because it's a fairly quiet game and there's less to chew on/work with but even that feels like an issue scum would struggle with way more.

other than that, infinity has crept up my townlist more, as has derp (i like the tone of his posts). creature is extremely cranky but, like pun said, he feels town regardless.

~punpun

punhead's given reasons for voting Alchemist are

extremely

weak and I fail to see how that could ever possibly sway the other head's opinion. if you discussed your differing reads of alchemist with each other, what else did you talk about? surely there were other reasons given in private.

was intentional. we were aiming for the same second, but alas. perfection is hard to strive for.

~pun

[punpun]

I didnt catch that before but the mocking tone in the first part doesnt really line up to me with how theyre choosing to deal with the slot in that same post

Explain why? I'm irritated with what he's saying in calling the game boring, saying it's a loss due to the playerlist etc, it's negative and anti-fun. But still, I thought it was town-indicative at the time because it draws a lot of negative attention, and scum usually aren't so bold.

~pun

it's minor but it's mostly a language thing. your tone comes off as somewhat... passionate? in the first and last lines. the "I've kinda shelved him as probtown" line sticks out to me. your feelings toward the slot don't seem genuine in that post.

All of the things you're pointing out here are towny, not scummy. "I've kinda shelved him as probtown" is just the way I talk.

~pun

[punpun]

#138 from my boy Alchemist pings me a bit. It's like drawing content/making stances about stuff that isn't there. For example, #74 is not a defense, and #131 is overall gut town? Strange, but is strange SCUM... this is the question.

~pun

also this looks like a big setup for the posts I quoted above. it's fencesitty as hell but then none of these points are brought up again?

it's inconclusive and not worth much, yeah. hence why it wasn't brought up again.

you reek of bad faith

I think I'm approximately here as of this page

I'm letting the other scouts handle voting tho

-merc

Weird that you have a full readlist with everyone on separate tiers already. My only read right now is that I townlean Gamma.

Explain the derp and Infinity reads.

VOTE: Sailors

~pun

Why is pun scum?

Also weird that Infinity asks about pun and not himself who's at the bottom. Why weren't you curious about yourself, Infinity?

~pun

I'm just an awkward person in general I think, I'm also trying to get the game going since it's been a bit slow so far.

VOTE: Infinity

Why was your vote on Swift naked if you were trying to get the game going?

~pun

derp you're not an alt of hewhoswims are you?

-M

no i am a terrible swimmer

this was actually pretty funny. my townlean here is just a spicy hot take off this one post, I'll need more to cement it

You think ability to be funny is something that's alignment indicative?

~pun

these are all bad-faith questions and pushes. reads like scum trying to get early footing in the game when nothing much was really going on.

you have wrung out of me a pre-sleep mobilepost

but no, i haven’t before

~punpun

did you put on your striped suit before making this appearance

If not Alchemist, I'd want Creature. This attitude is apparently NAI for him and he's gonna be very unhelpful if he is town, so at least we won't be losing much.

~pun

huh, I'll vote for derp if not Creature

Hey, Gamma, what have you seen that's towny from Creature? Enlighten me pls

~pun

lol

no, no, and lol

Want to explain why us solving and questioning people is "bad-faith questions and pushes"?

~pun

[Tayl0r Swift]

ok so based on the last page i think the bulge is town and the last few pages are making me question my TR on punpun.
punpun what reeks of bad faith about bulge's push?

[punpun]

I disagree with all of his reasons. Maybe there's a smidge of OMGUS in there.

EVERYONE ACCUSES PRECIOUS PUNPUN OF BAD FAITH AND NEGLIGENCE OF META BUT NO ONE ASKS PUNPUN ABOUT THEIR DAY

it's always "punpun scummy" and "punpun did that read" or "punpun voted Creature" but no one wants to know how punpun REALLY feels

~pun

[punpun]

everyone jsut treats me like an object to be voted or not voted and talked about and laughed at and i get told "punpun do this" or "punpun do that" or "punpun you're scummy" but nobody talks to me unless they want something from me and nobody wants to get to know the real me and i feel sO ALONE.

~pun

[Tayl0r Swift]

how are you punpun?

[punpun]

nobody ever says "punpun tell us about yourself, your talents, your ambitions"

it's never about me, is it? it's just about you.

tell me where youre at? what are you feeling beyond creature and omgussing bulge?

[Tayl0r Swift]

how are you punpun?

i'm ok

~pun

if youre gonna give such a curt answer then why did you insist on us asking? you arent making me want to ask you about your feelings by not sharing when i do

[punpun]

GOOD.

also i had a tortilla wrap with grilled vegetables, guacamole and salsa for lunch which i enjoyed

~pun

[punpun]

tell me where youre at? what are you feeling beyond creature and omgussing bulge?

Stop bullying me

I'm lost outside of that. I thought Alchemist was scummy because he lacked personality/LIFE. There's not many feelings of scumminess in all of the others.
