newbie 2080: correct statements (this is over)

[Galron]

If you want to go To Close for Comfort or Charles in Charge I will probably have a problem.

I didn't realize that I was voting for the same playe twice, but whoever said one was rvs and the other was serious was prolly right.

[Galron]

Sorry Too Close for Comfort. I can't believe I spelled a Jim J. Bullock show incorrectly.

the person you voted for both times said that
it was me!

do you not want others in the town to take charge? I’m not sure what you’re saying here

pedit
lmao I like this not-gimmick-thing

[Facebones]

Sorry for my absence, I was either sleeping or working. On my lunch break now, but before I go back some food for thought: not reading a players post due to apathy seems worse than not reading it due to laziness. Galron, is it just Cook's posts you're apathetic towards? Why?

No. No gimmick. I hadn't recalled who I voted before. And now I've got to look to see why I decideded it was a serious vote. So much work.

I'm not apathetic toward Cook's posts. I just don't feel like reading them. I guess maybe that is apathy; I don't know. Everyone else's posts are much shorter. That's got something to do with it. Cook could be open-wolfing (I have a personal bias against that term btw), but I don't know. It seems that if anyone is wolfing (there's that term again) it up again, I, and everyone else, would be alerted to it. In a succinct manner ofc.

oh no I wasn’t calling that a not-gimmick, I was calling using the names of the shows a not-gimmick

this is a pretty different attitude to what you had at the start of the game IIRC

[Spangled]

hey, Facebones, you reckon DArby’s whiteknighting me a wee bit?
Thynhith, what do you think of Facebones’ entrance?

[Spangled]

MargotRosa, I see you’ve been giving attention to a few other games.
After you’re back from your D&D session, mind giving this one a bit? :D

, and everyone else, would be alerted to it. In a succinct manner ofc.

Unless that person is Cook, because how can you be alert to an open wolf if you don't feel like reading their lengthy posts? Start being more motivated, goddamn it.

I mean, I guess there's a chance. I have accused people of whiteknighting in the past and been rather embarrassed about the whole ordeal afterwards though. Due to that, and because it's still early stages, I'm gonna put it down to being NAI

[Spangled]

I have an Opinion on Facebones now but I want to see what Thynhith has to say about him before I detail it.

@Facebones yeah, I get you on the whiteknighting, and what’s more I agree; I don’t think DArby is whiteknighting me, since it seems more targeted

at

Galron than defending

me

especially since he’s disagreed with me a couple times already in-thread

I always get nervous that I’m getting pocketed/buddied, since I like to do it so much as scum

[Facebones]

How come you're anxious to hear about what Thynhith makes of my entrance? Like, why him specifically?

[MargotRosa]

Hi folks! It's time to break NewD3!

Tracker, please claim. It's not advantageous to scum to claim Tracker.

Don't.

[MargotRosa]

Unfortunately I know exactly what Cook is doing, which means this is gonna be another weird newbie game.

Cook doing this strat as scum:

T3 copying the strat as town:

[MargotRosa]

Aside from anything else, I did the math in Newbie2076 and showed empirically that it's a terrible strat.

The fact that Cook is pushing it, after having pushed it as scum, despite, according to Cook, it not being advantageous to scum, makes me think Cook understands it's a bad strat

VOTE: Cook

Don't.

Do. We get either an IC, two confirmed Townies, or a Follow The Cop that can't be broken.

[DArby]

I don't really have a handle on this game yet. Well, maybe a little. I'll let Will Geer in on this; I mean that was six or seven seasons on the Walons and he almost always had a line on everyone in the cast.

Truth be told, I'm not so much of a scum hunter as a town hunter. I can spot a John Boy. But if you want me to find an Ashley Longworth, Sr or Jr, it takes me a bit of work.

Sorry, I don't get this reference, but I'll see how well this holds up.

VOTE: Cook

I agree. If this is a plan that can be pushed by scum and say it's an advantage for town then it's not as advantageous to town as claimed. I'm fine with skipping this plan.

@MargotRosa Can I see your math?

[Galron]

UNVOTE:

[Galron]

Giving Roden a town read.

[Galron]

I don't recall how I was at the beginning. I'm not above trying something new.

[Galron]

Unless that person is Cook, because how can you be alert to an open wolf if you don't feel like reading their lengthy posts?

This proposes that you aren't reading her posts also.

[Spangled]

I want to hear what Thynhith thinks of you so I can better, or at all, read them. They’ve said only a couple things in-thread, and I want to draw them out and make them take some stances, engage them in the game. They’re obviously

around

, in some capacity, but they could be more

present

.

[Spangled]

Giving Roden a town read.

whence?

[Spangled]

@MargotRosa Can I see your math?

I would like that too!

No, it doesn’t. It means that either Facebones read the posts and decided that they weren’t open-wolfy, or that he didn’t read them. Something tells me that it’s the first, rather than the second.

@Galron: why’d you unvote me? are you no longer scumreading me? why?

[Cook]

spangled what are your thoughts on roden
