It's recent enough for me to have not forgotten. In another universe I was the greatest Tracker in history, that game.

Doing something a bit different, this VC and the next one I do will have two words that share a common ancestor.

etymonline.org wrote:
guest (n.)


Old English
gæst
,
giest
(Anglian
gest
) "an accidental guest, a chance comer, a stranger," from Proto-Germanic
*gastiz
(source also of Old Frisian
jest
, Dutch
gast
, German
Gast
, Gothic
gasts
"guest," originally "stranger"), from PIE root "stranger, guest, host" (source also of Latin
hostis
, in earlier use "a stranger," in classical use "an enemy"); the root sense, according to Watkins, probably is "someone with whom one has reciprocal duties of hospitality."

Spelling evolution influenced by Old Norse cognate
gestr
(the usual sound changes from the Old English word would have yielded Modern English
*yest
). Meaning "person entertained for pay" (at an inn, etc.) is from late 13c. Old English also had
cuma
"stranger, guest," literally "a comer." Phrase
be my guest
in the sense of "go right ahead" first recorded 1955.

I’m not a fan of some of the things Vaxkiller seems to be taking interest in, it seems frivolous and selective?

5 votes *sounds* like a lot, but it’s E-6.

Most of the votes are meta, and that makes me go meh because it’s impossible to verify or refute (or rather, I’m not going to go back and read their old games). For instance, I think it was EE who said mini’s scum meta is to do very little? That could be a useful insight, or it could be an excuse to push a wagon.

Anyway, it’s not even halfway there, so I’m going to let it play out and see if anything good comes up.

ok so y is mini not a good wagon?
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

as of right now I think mini is scum and if you are town then yes I think you should vote there but its your vote and you can do w/e u want. My question was more along the lines of...

like u said "and see if anything good comes up."

implying that mini wasn't a good wagon.

Well for one you ignored my question about momrangal. And you like my wagon for undisclosed reasons.

Last time we played, I could understand your POV. And you seemed more careful. Here you aren’t really being careful. I mean, you threw out a completely emotional reason to begin questioning my slot (based on literally faulty logic), and your focus seems overly narrow.

Whatever, just an early take. Some folks are already trying to sideline you by calling your approach superficial and what not. There’s probably something there, but you haven’t questioned it much.

I’m just trying to think if the behavior is Scum trying to figure out how to enter the game (and thinks that making a comment about the pace will make them look Townie?), or Town that hasn’t found the time to read what’s going on yet and is just putting that out there.

Why not wait to see instead of just throwing out what we might all be thinking.

If we’re all thinking it, then stating it doesn’t make a big difference. Except that it does increase the pressure on them to actually contribute.
