like i said a couple of posts tho i think irregardless of his alignment he's gonna be one of the main flip options until he does flip and i think it's probably better to do sooner rather than later

~

wasn't he scum in that ygrassidl (i think i mangled that name?) i was spectating it and was really impressed that he *tried* all the way through even though he was obviously not winning and even tho his team was p doomed. he kept chugging along and kept trying to look townie and not get flipped

so like idk does he just phone it in here?

Though even if I weren’t scum idk how much I would have cared for the game if I’d known what filth lay underneath (and I’m NOT talking about the mod kill or mod errors)

like i suppose he just enver got into it as either alignment
i'm not sure that's ai

but on balance the fact that he isn't really trying to solve and is sort of floating and has to be prodded into giving content feels somewhat scummy to me

also i think pooky's point how neither enchant nor ss wanted to vote each other was a good one

Why is this? In my experience, people who receive pressure soon after replacing in tend to get pretty demotivated as either alignment.

Also, I object to this, both because it seems fairly similar to the nonchalance you townread Enchant for, and because I'm pretty expressly refusing to give the content my prodders are requesting.

I can't speak for Enchant, but there was basically never a time where I didn't want to vote them, so I don't get where this is coming from.

Like this is a potentially critical conversation between highly influential players and Gamma feels like he's trying to react to it and support them rather than steer it in any particular direction.

Maybe it's nothing, but I guess it's probably enough to take him out of my PoE.
