[Titus]

That's gotta be a first (I'm not counting fake townreading her like I did last time I rolled scum).

What wording was I supposed to use? Is there another way to say it? Also I'm French.

"Like last time I rolled scum" is the phrase in question. If I read it "Like last time I rolled scum" in a straight way, it somewhat implies you are currently scum. "like last time". If it read more "like last time, I rolled scum" then the meaning changes as the phrases are split. Im explaining this rather poorly though.

unvote

Oddly enough the more DGB posts the less I scumread them

This is still scum.

Not Voting (2): quiet, Hayker

With 20 players alive, it takes 11 votes to achieve an elimination.

Day 1 will end in (expired on 2021-01-16 23:15:00).

This is your friendly reminder that using bold instead of vote or unvote tags makes me more likely to miss your vote.

[Vaxkiller]

I don't like how gamma called out angle shooting then calls 418 a scum approach and votes. I'm rethinking my vote.

SvS? Cmon, bussing with the smallest amount of pressure?

It has nothing to do with being inactive but how she’s using her active time

So is it more than just 418? How are they using their active time?

[BBmolla]

Do you usually scumread town!Titus?

You'd be fairly hard pressed to find someone who doesn't. The defacto site meta is Titus is scum.

Yes. Unfortunately scummers from a certain era will always SR me. When I was a newbie, I went 6 and 0 in my first six scumgames outside the newbie queue.

Combine that with my logic being somewhat out there as town means I rarely have an obvtown gene.

If it means anything I kinda think you’re Town this game

Which probably means your scum right lol

[BBmolla]

If anyone needs to contact me, please say “heybbmolla” without quotations, I will search it every time I come to catch up.

Might as well put this back in to play, much easier to stay caught up with not 40 players though

[NorwegianboyEE]

heybbmolla heybbmolla heybbmolla

[quiet]

Heya! Second game, first outta newbie queue, be easy.

First impressions, no looking back at posts, after one causal read-through:

BB {fake}claiming day1 is already the BB I know and love and this is literally my second game. A happy NAI from me. Enjoyed the interplay, but probably won’t read into too many of the reactions to it.

Except Mr. Ping pong paddle, I think that gleeful style might be what I want to be when I grow up. Game is hard, but should be fun.

EE stood out in my first readthrough. I’m impressed as hell that anyone could have a townlist that sized twenty pages into day1. On my re-read, I want to see how everyone else interacted with them. As it is, the high effort and some of the...reactionary responses? they offered might help me sort a little.

Gemma also stood out, maybe because of number of posts, maybe because of the “I don’t like how this day is going, I’m not able to play how I wanted” comment which I think is pretty much how I see their day. Maybe you said it and I missed it, but...how do you want to play? Is there a particular reason why BB being BB messes with that? Especially in a game of this size?

I barely remember the wagons. The new Joyed one came from nowhere as far as I could tell on a first read; I had DGR or DGB or whatever the acronym is as strange but not wagonworthy, and I’m sure there was someone else but clearly I didn’t credit that wagon enough to make note of it.

People I kinda liked on first read:
Titus, ping pong, Gamma, rainyCat, and I think Luca. I reserve the right to flip on all of these; this is one read through flash impressions.

Excited to play!

[quiet]

Also, before I dive in a bit, I’ll throw out my RVS, because as far as I’m concerned, we’re still in it, and Im not going to jump on a wagon without actually thinking.
So sorry VOTE: Binatog13, they’re ain’t enough room in this town for the two of us.

[quiet]

I also remember not liking the votes on NorfolkBoy1. That also stood out. I think I’ll start there and see if I can justify where that feeling is coming from.

[NorwegianboyEE]

That's a nice townie entry.

[chkflip]

I was gonna be mad, but at least I'm not whomever the fuck rainyCat is I guess.

my past 4-5 town games, I don't think there's a single player who was correctly able to town-read me. I spent whole games being on the defensive day after day praying to get that delicious link to the dead thread in my mailbox. It looks like this is going to be yet another one of those games but this time I really want to earn that scum read.

You're easy peasy until you get paranoid and just start calling everyone scum. I had you as town in our last one, but you railroaded me into the ground. And got town read for it. So this bit is silly even for you.

[Vaxkiller]

Welcome, quiet!

[Titus]

I actually am null/lean scum on the quiet.

That being said...

Welcome.

[chkflip]

I ISO'd NPOM for funsies and realized his RVS vote was still active. Finding that odd some 400 posts later, I say something about it

VOTE: andresvmb

Because he can't be town all the time.

WHY YOUR VOTE IS SAME NOW

and then he straight faced says to me

Don't see anyone significantly scummy yet.

which is quite literally the opposite of

Last tiime I played in a game where someone rescinded a claim they were scum.

VOTE: BBMolla

in a span of less than 10 minutes.

But you don't understand the problem with that?

UNVOTE: MiniMegabyte
VOTE: NoPowerOverMe

[Rannygazoo]

Lol

[Rannygazoo]

NPOM is unreadable. If any investigative role out there wants to check them tonight, don’t let me stop you.

TITUS: This is the post I thought was a RB crumb.

I disagree on that being an RB crumb. I read it as an invest crumb myself if anything at all. Either that or just straight out asking for it.

As an RB, he couldn't determine who to block based on their results/target.

What might I be asking for?

[Momrangal]

Eyyy chk

I don't think you've even seen me under this acct before. Where you at this game

[quiet]

@chkflip I’ll get it right moving forward, unfortunately the paddle was more memorable than the name. In my defense....I like ping pong?

NPOM read is interesting, almost like your questioning them about not changing their RVS vote convinced them to...immediately change their vote. For still nearly RVS reasons.

Also all apologies to Rannygazoo. That cat is staring into my soul, and I at least got the first letter right.

[chkflip]

I was mostly kidding, you're not the first/last to call me that.

Eyyy chk

I don't think you've even seen me under this acct before. Where you at this game

wym fam I've definitely played with this account before. To the more important point here WHO THE FUCK ELSE ARE YOU!?

I've given both town and scum reads pretty openly. Is there a specific opinion you're looking for?

[Norfolk Boy1]

Good to have you here, Quiet.

We need to bypass this NB1 nonsense. Let's use Norfolk.

I've done some research and am rethinking my Ranny read as my super intelligent theory has turned out to be impossible. I'm adding chkflip to my townreads with Norway and Mini.

[Gamma Emerald]

I don't like how gamma called out angle shooting then calls 418 a scum approach and votes. I'm rethinking my vote.

SvS? Cmon, bussing with the smallest amount of pressure?

It has nothing to do with being inactive but how she’s using her active time

So is it more than just 418? How are they using their active time?

it's shading and lame posting rather than actual sorting or anything I'd really expect from town.
Plus the way she popped in and out seems like how scum typically do it, where they will have spots of decent content and spots of lack of presence. It creates a seemingly active vibe while staying under-the-radar.

this image pretty well encapsulates the vibe of 418 to me.

To be fair, your demise was inevitable due to your interaction with scum!Iecerint.

[DrippingGoofball]

I do like the NPOM post.

[DrippingGoofball]

Sorry. NPOM vote.
