For Norwegian, I thought several moments qualified as slimy, particularly in the wall. You're more familiar with 9:12 than I am so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Fundamentally your critique of esther is purely tonal. I think her tone today is fine, I had some issues Day 1, and I don't put a lot of stock in tone anyway unless I think that specific person would react differently.

I have entertained your solve repeatedly and don't share the reads. If your definition of "give your solve a chance" is to just throw my own judgment out the window it's probably not the worst idea in the world but meh.

If Dragons wants him too then okay, sure, but right now I don't see how this goes through without a blitz.

Only viable votes atm are Dwlee/IV.

While I'm willing to vote in 6 I don't think we currently can get consensus.

Actually if esther/IV vote in 6 we can. If one refuses to vote anybody we can just force them through instead.

Might be worth a shot ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Me trying to break stalemates only to have people flip around and create new ones.

I don't think we're currently on track to deadlock unless Dunnstral comes back and forces 6 so current path is fine imo.

I'll be around but am just going to let it sit in dwlee/Dragon's court for now and try to go do something else with my life. I'm not going to strongarm a hammer but I think this is our best chance of getting a correct flip today.

Would appreciate more content from Dragons in any case.

Can I get a mini statue if this happens because I made a post with over 600 words in it?
I prefer they, thanks :)

i think it could be dunnstral in the 6 i think dwlee is more likely

as far as esther goes it just has to do with their posting vs. IV's posting, IV's seems more genuine and seems to come from a town position. i don't like the way esther just multiposts it seems to be efforting in an attempt to look townie. Yeah I know that IV's big wall can be construed as that as well and i'm wrestling with that too so i'm not sold on esther i just think it more likely.

You were also in 9:12, am I just crazy to think that IV can fake this?

I don't feel like IV is faking anything, that's one of the reasons he seems more genuine today. I can imagine scum!IV going into today trying to outpost so he can build his position around the gamestate.
I was thinking about another game i think. I'm gonna look for it.

...What specifically am I supposed to be looking at in this game?

Checking it against my own points he gives early reads freely, which is the recent thing I was watching for, and openly admits to struggling to play scum and claims it is his best game on record.

He admittedly did not write a Harry Potter book in reaction to anyone voting him that game but this came after already getting called out for effort so ?_? who knows

I love being forced to guess Dunnstral's alignment based off of 2/3 sentences every 48 hours and maybe one strong post a week.

Town or scum the onus is squarely on dwlee here. Either way they go I would like to hear why. I will check in to avoid deadlock but I want my life back and I'm stuck in a holding position atm.
