No, that's not what I meant. I expected you to come in w/ some sort of trepidation around me. Why do I appear to be holding back? again, what are you expecting that I'm not doing? Does "not sorting" mean I'm not interacting w/ you or what?

I'm not sure! I kinda assumed he was noting the ratcheting, and maybe thought the earlier vote was a bad one.

Yeah. I expected more interaction.

Ok. Live updating this as I go through. These are all leans as of current, but with no confidence yet to place an actual vote:


DrippingGoofball - Scum lean. Now real town substances in any of the post, but a feeling of misdirection.
benhalkum - I'm town.
Elements - Null lean. Post could go either way, but play can't be determined currently.
fferyllt - Town lean. Post look mostly town indicative.
Cabd - Scum lean. Post seem lay out mini crumbs in several areas for people to follow without leading a charge.
Syryana - Scum lean. Posting but not taking the game seriously. Could be because its still early, but there is plenty to go off of to have town discussions.
skitter30 - Town lean. Most post are town indicative.
Prism- Town lean. Most post are town indicative.
PookyTheMagicalBear - Heavy scum lean. Post are not town indicative. On the aggressive side of not providing any depth in post. Red signals here.
borkjerfkin - Null lean. Later post are starting to show more of play.
petapan - Null lean at the moment, but cautious on lack of substance provided. Could be scum hiding in plain site or town who isn't committed fully to the game this early.
Mod Pizza - Town lean. Most post are town indicative.
Vaxkiller - Null lean at the moment, but cautious on lack of substance provided. Could be scum hiding in plain site or town who isn't committed fully to the game this early. Originally had said they felt town, but that was because nothing had jumped out scummy in my initial skimming before reading the threads.

I feel like on one hand you're telling me to be more direct w/ you and in the same breath you're playing extremely close to the chest yourself and I don't think that's particularly fair to me.

Also leaves me wondering what you would've said here had and on not happened.

At that point, I would have shared the reads. though in at least one case there would have been more footnotes than I'm feeling at the moment.

this isn't really fair to you, given I was trying to stir up interaction.

even less fair, I'm fading again, but it is what it is.

Meant to bring this up earlier but what seems necessarily SvX about our interaction?

More specifically: do you think T!bork v S!prism is more likely than TVT? why?

Not caught up, but has reads on everyone.

I re-ordered them... in order of copypasta!

Note the abundance of fence sitting. "Could go either way" "Could be scum or town." Note also empty language like "Later post are starting to show more of play" where he basically says that "the second half of his posts show 50% of his play"

"No confidence" to vote but seems pretty damn sure Pooky is spewing red all over the game, so why no Pooky vote? Pooky how do you feel about being bus'ed?
