or anything that helps you document your current mindset/reads changes

it's pretty fluid to the point i'm not even sure how to describe/document it - it's feelings of "huh, norwee might not be as townie as i previously thought" or "ico's poking around my 'hammer paranoia' feels slightly wrong" (and i'm genuinely not sure what force of the universe made me put luca's name in there, it just did) that i'm putting at the back of my mind to think about as they keep providing more content. it's moving their picture slightly upwards on the y-axis but in of itself it's not yet changing my scum-to-town-read on the slot.

"idk gaem weird". could be my weird/paranoia-y irl mood right now making me paranoid of things i shouldn't be. maybe i should go do something else.

I 95% hate Wooper's posts.

I didn't think geraintm's takes could get worse, and yet here we are.

thx

you can go back to ranting in the scum PT now

[VP Baltar]

Alice, are you an alt?

Alice, are you an alt?

Nope.

Any follow-up on this, Baltar?

I was trying to figure out if I should give Alice a little noob leeway. They could be lying to me about being an alt, but if telling the truth, it dampens how scummy I saw Alice's play initially.

[innocentvillager]

*why* does that ping you

y-3 is basically y-1

this day has been very non-productive so far and ending it now would be horrible

am i scum here with town!alice who's pretending to give a shit if town!alice got hammered? bc i would much rather keep my mouth shut and hope town does an oopsie
am i scum here with scum!alice and am panicking bc oh no partner close to yeet? but i thought it's unlikely i bus early, no?

like what is pinging you here

@ico did you ever respond to this?

[VP Baltar]

Has George seriously not posted yet?

they posted. it was a fairly half decent post. sure they only have 2 but better that than 97 that don't actually mean anything. they posted on wednesday, they haven't been posting elsewhere whilst ignoring here. their level of activity is fine

Why are you speaking up for George?

[innocentvillager]

hmmm i kinda want to poke at {norway, alicek} but im not really sure where to start

{ico, wooper} im pretty uncertain about as well but i feel like in the short term ill get more sorting out of the former two. ico and wooper i have a feeling will be long burn reads

[VP Baltar]

also @you and @Ico @anyone else what cares, why is Norway town? quoting past posts is fine

Plus town points to IV here.

I was just thinking as I'm catching up from the overnight pages: "Where the hell is Norway? He was very active early on and then faded into the background once the game actually got rolling."

[innocentvillager]

if that's where you're at in your catchup you're not gonna like my next post Baltar

I'm not sure I have him as solid town yet, though I have been nodding along a bit with some of his points. I just find his posting style humorous and enjoyable.

[VP Baltar]

Ok, so I'm caught up.

Biggest thing worth commenting on is Ico-Datisi scuffle.

On the one hand, I'm not as paranoid as Datisi about the Y-3 stuff. I get where it is coming from, but also it seems slightly overstated as a threat. Not Mafia could quick hammer, or he could let things roll. It's a wildcard. So, I can see Ico wanting to say chill out.

THAT BEING SAID, I actually find Ico to be more scummy in that exchange...though it is less about Datisi. I actually don't like the dragon trying to prod along an Alice yeet on paper thin reasons. Like, the statement about Alice having thin reads and that being textbook mafia....that's a pretty crappy attack on someone who could just be noobing it up. Saying 'rah rah, let's yeet Alice quick!' when she is widely scum read comes across as opportunistic to me.

It could be that Ico was just applying real pressure there. I know Ico is good at pressuring people. But part of me is really reading that exchange as agenda driven and I don't like it.

Don’t hit me with this shit.
I’m working a FULL TIME JOB. Dealing with children. I can’t be as active as usual. That does NOT equate scum and i’d rather just let everyone know right away that this is not how to read me in this game.

That's no way to talk about your coworkers

[NorwegianboyEE]

I’m working at a school i meant the actual children.

I was joking. So this is a new job? Congrats

What is the way to determine your alignment this game?

i don't liek making reads like this but honestly the sheer offense Norway took to this feels townie

Why are you speaking up for George?

i first went and chcked if they literally hadn't posted at all. and they had. an initial random post and then one post that felt fine in lenght to me. i wanted to stop the narrative that george bailey had been absent.

I 95% hate Wooper's posts.

I didn't think geraintm's takes could get worse, and yet here we are.

posts like this

@alice, claim please

and 554 with their vote for Alice after 538 which didnt feel like it placed Alice in their scum pile at all and was (i think) largely non-commital

all that meant i just dislike Wooper and if i was placing a vote for person i wanted gone most, it would be them

You're saying scum doesn't get offended by that? 'cause i disagree

i think his gimmick is he's humorous and enjoyable and i think if he were playing normally id find his humor to be mildly scum indicative (in a pockety, "scum is stress relieving" way)

On the one hand, I'm not as paranoid as Datisi about the Y-3 stuff. I get where it is coming from, but also it seems slightly overstated as a threat. Not Mafia could quick hammer, or he could let things roll. It's a wildcard. So, I can see Ico wanting to say chill out.

isn't that... the exact reason to be worried? that NM and geraint together have a very sizable chance of taking a Y-2 slot to Y-0?

maybe

i don't know if i think it's that crappy of an attack. i see how it could be town driven i see how it could be scum applying pressure to someone who's kind of elimbaity.

also Alice is still kinda scummy huiehue lol

[Datisi]

you can go back to ranting in the scum PT now

why are you so rude

[VP Baltar]

if i was placing a vote for person i wanted gone most, it would be them

Can I ask you to please just vote for who you want gone most? It is actually not helpful to only vote the top wagon. It hurts VC analysis later.

[VP Baltar]

isn't that... the exact reason to be worried? that NM and geraint together have a very sizable chance of taking a Y-2 slot to Y-0?

I think the concern is fair, but likely overstated. NM hasn't been moving his vote around at all yet and may not be reading the game much.

He said himself he wouldnt quick hammer. Thin promise, I know, but it is something.

Hey Not Mafia, you mind voting someone other than yourself right now?
