Mini Normal 2211 || Summer Meet [Endgame]

@hem i still don't like your defense of gerain but i'm losing confidence in my scumlean on you. our exchange about osuka feels like you genuinely voicing your thoughts and asking for mine in return, rather than looking for reasons to believe that osuka can be scum. saying you don't think you'll get much out of a 1v1 and then continuing to engage with me anyway suggests town to me as well. i may catch some flak for "placating" again but i think this is enough for me to move on for the time being.

@gerain can you give us even a rough idea of your reads on the playerlist? i don't care if you have 5 scumleans and 3 nulls, we have got to start somewhere. what are your thoughts on T3? on choof's play vs hme's? on osuka's hostility now vs the games i linked?

VFP replaces Andante!

I'm less bothered about osuka's hostility than his chainsaw defense of you, Lemons.

i think it will be better if I stay back for the meantime.

What's the point of all this if you don't vote Lemons, Egix?

as am i. but i said i'd look into his meta, and i still think the results are valuable, if not quite as revealing as i might've hoped

@ lemons - i have...10 nulls and 2 i don't knows? maybe human eating monkey for his fast about face on me for no good reasons is suspicious - because i didn't do anything to change their mind really.

i find it weird that me going to someone "huh- i find your backtracking off of me suspicious" isn't genuine and is voteworthy, but when i actually claim i am town that means nothing

It doesn't need to visably change his mind to be useful. You can get insight on someone without wanting to just vote them.

the timeline was i believe

you think i'm scum
i go "you can think of me as bad town but i am town"
you go "oh yeah, you are right, you are town!"
i go "that's weird you backed off me so easily"
you go "you are spewing town vibes"
i go "i really am not, you are being weird"
you go "see, you did it again!"

i find your interaction with me odd

VFP · Post Post #612 (ISO) » Tue May 18, 2021 5:07 am

Anything interesting I should read so far or can I coast today?

osuka · Post Post #613 (ISO) » Tue May 18, 2021 5:18 am

oh fuck not this bullshit again

osuka · Post Post #614 (ISO) » Tue May 18, 2021 5:18 am

how are your juicers going, vfp? coasting smoothly?

InsidiousLemons · Post Post #615 (ISO) » Tue May 18, 2021 5:20 am

dont even start you two i am not reading 3 consecutive pages of catfighting again

osuka · Post Post #616 (ISO) » Tue May 18, 2021 5:26 am

this guy here comes in and again immediately says he'll coast? am i not supposed to be unhappy?

Cook · Post Post #617 (ISO) » Tue May 18, 2021 5:28 am

must've not written flavor, huh

flavor

Andante has to catch a flight back home or something, I don't know, I definitely don't have your entire travel itineraries on file. Anyhow. Time to

kidnap

strongly suggest to a passerby that I'll give money to them if they play the game. Hello new person! Play nice.

VFP · Post Post #618 (ISO) » Tue May 18, 2021 5:29 am

It's fine Lemons. I'm not going to be participating in making the game toxic.
But since you're here, what's what?

I missed this question. Yes, I think it's a scummy reaction to respond to suspicion of oneself with "but why aren't you suspicious of these other people who did something similar?" It reads like scum indignant about being accused based on what they consider insufficient evidence.

Honestly I agree with this. I haven't really liked much from them this whole game.

sorry, i thought it was customary to read the thread on a replace-in. it's 25 pages dude, just put in even a modicum of effort and form your own opinions instead of trying to tie yourself to me right out the gate

These posts to me don't neccesarly seem towny. They have a "trying to look productive" feel to them.

Understandable.

How is it a ploy for towncred exactly? I think the surprise he shows there is something that would have occurred naturally and hence does not need to be faked.

As my next post was meant to show, I still had some pause, and I was hoping that you would respond first.

Who are the "I don't knows" then? Frankly this is disappointing.

i suppose. the takeaway was supposed to be that the post is NAI. the suggestion that it could be a ploy comes from the notion that generally speaking, questioning a townread on yourself makes people more likely to think you're town. the "seriously?" feels a bit performative to me but i really don't think it's worth reading much into 530. it doesn't form a significant basis for my read on him at all.

and do you really think that emphatically suggesting a replacement read the thread is AtE? they come in here saying they're going to coast (which is also how they started off the last game i played with them) and trying multiple times to piggyback off of others' opinions. how am i supposed to react?
