Xenoblade 2 Mafia: Game Over

[Noraa]

This was the post I was gonna make yesterday but bork closed thread so I had to send myself an email with it:

The entrance went down like this: I saw the game start pm, came in and was skimming the first page and saw cobra's post and decided it was gonna be my RVS vote. Now at the time, it was not RVS but I didn't know that until I posted but page numbers are at the bottom. I was bummed RVS had ended without my portion and so made my own little RVS. I agree, stuff like this can look remarkably fake from an outsider view cuz people normally .... dont do this. Like the norm is "if u miss rvs, suck it up and deal with it"

A while later, I realized that Cake was a legitimate wagon that was actually big. I looked around to see if there was a case and I found nothing. I decided that I was going to hop off because, keep in mind, I did not SR cake at the time. I was just looking for ways in which my experience playing with Cake might mean something.

The moment I hop off, people immediately started SRing me, especially Cabd and I started getting mad. It felt to me like I wasn't allowed to express my own opinions. My goal, in a way, was literally just to shade Cabd at that point. Petty as it is, it is what it is. I was pissed that people were gonna SR me for jumping off a not well justified wagon and they kept basically pushing that "if I jump off, I'm scum cuz town me "likes to go with the flow""

Push on Flavor makes sense imo. Him SRing Cake and I doesn't really say anything if he's scum cuz u never know if its true or not so my SR here still stands.

The reason why I have ignored your hydra is because almost all of your heads just tunnel me and I dont tend to like to engage slots like that. It always ends up pissing me off.

[Firebringer]

You also felt like Cakez was town.

i feel zero shame.

[Cobra Kai]

My point being is you might want to take a step back and reevaluate your position after being pocketed most of D1 by guilt over a LHF wagon.

[Bell]

I feel like I'm going to be doing a lot of sheeping this game.

[Cabd]

Cabd what are your thoughts on my pool? I understand I wrote a damn essay but I'm feeling pretty confident.

I am like... on a scale of 1 to 10, Norco level of drugged up, but I'm reading and nodding along.

I kind of have thoughts on what could make obtusebear more town than your reads have him at.

I also have a metatell i am not burning at this point in time that upgrades your bell read.

my position is this game is skrewy and i would like to chill bud

[Cabd]

Obtusebear, yes or no, no additional info please.

Do you have, create, or interact with non driver-blade neighborhoods?

[Cobra Kai]

I'm glad everything went well!

The bear is twinging my paranoia. I'm back and forth on him.

No problems moving Bell up.

[L4pe]

eating dinner dont write 3 more pages while im gone please

redit: fuck

(redit stands for "retroactive edit" and i guess its your equivalent of a "ninja edit" or something)

[Cabd]

yeah we use "pre edit" (pedit)

Same difference though.

Get in boys, we're fucking wagoning obvscum.

[midwaybear]

I feel like I'm going to be doing a lot of sheeping this game.

Same

[Cobra Kai]

If I may be so bold, I don't think Noraa fits as scum with that combination.

[Bell]

[post=Guillotina]Guillotina[/post]

You really don't have to burn a meta tell when I'm like, the worst scum player of all time.

Glad your surgery went okay Cabd.

I'm still recovering from Death curse.

Also, I kinda feel like RR is scummy.

I'm not sure how many scum were defending Cakez tho.

[Bell]

VOTE: Guillotina

[Cobra Kai]

I know my wall said otherwise but I've been reevaluating more since I typed it all up.

[REAGAN BUSH 84]

Those are some huge fuckin' posts from Cabd and Cobra holy shit, will tackle Cobra's in a second

For now here's where I'm at reads wise. Normally I like to do tiers but there's a lot of players and doing a strict ordering was more useful.

Town
========
Cabd
Midwaybear
Fermis Flames
Battle Mage
Gamma Emerald
ManWithNoName
Flavor Leaf
Cobra Kai
Dunnstral
Bell
BrianSkies
l4pe
LLD
Guillotina
unwnd
beeboy
Firebringer
Will catch up later maybe
MariaR
Noraa
========
Scum

This list starts getting sketchy around Dunnstral territory, I also think I'd burn either of Maria or Noraa with beeboy/Muffincho next on deck.

Briefly explaining the scumreads, I should backlink some of this w/ examples when I have time. I really want to get to reading the Cobra/Cabd posts, though

Maria's posts in general had me as very eh and at times super performative, I don't like their claim, and I need to check the Cakez vote timing.

I think Noraa's reaction to Cabd was a lot more concerned with asserting that Cabd & co. weren't all that great over genuinely trying to sort Cakez/Cabd. Their defensiveness was kind of fine? But I'm concerned as to why they're so concerned with shooting down other players' ego over just sorting them/the people following them, the concern is to win the game not prove Cabd is a moron.

beeboy just hasn't done shit and had a bad entrance imo

Nacho's interactions with Cakez reeked of blatant coaching to save him, he's not going to like me pushing him but w/e. At least it's not bad play if you were town, I just didn't get the vibe that genuinely sorting him was his intent, more that he was trying to get Cakez to reset and make better posts. Cakez's halfassed reaction made this worse.

Bush

P-Edit jesus christ the pace

[L4pe]

yeah we use "pre edit" (pedit)

Same difference though.

Get in boys, we're fucking wagoning obvscum.

"retroactive" is cooler than "pre"

[Cobra Kai]

Bell check my VCA section on my wall. I go into it.

[Firebringer]

i need to hear from senpai flavor leaf before continuing

[MariaR]

Oh we're not killing wolf Regan yet?

Sad

[Bell]

You put me in the middle of your reads.
You're confirmed scum now RB84.

[Cabd]

I think we're ALL recovering from death curse, Bell.

Especially Noraa, who has a severe case with symptoms of "Red PM Overload" disease.

[midwaybear]

Do you have, create, or interact with non driver-blade neighborhoods?

Yeah

[Will catch up later maybe]

Vote: Noraa

Am not as jazzed about this game opening as I was previously. Still happy voting here, not happy voting Guillotina.
