- didnt really respond or acknowledge that ehen i pointed that out like half a game ago

I dont really like their take of calling both me ans vpb 'town with bad takes' when we're both objecting to their play


Reads are geneally upside down from mine
What are your reads in broader detail?
How would you summarize D1 so far?

If we go with your assumption (which a mod VCA doesn’t seem to support) then the monkey wagon v Wu is either TvS or TvT.

Knowing which illuminates what happened there.

If you disagree those (Wu/Datisi) were the main wagons which happened?
id prefer a tene wagon! open to the possibility of joining wu but i think since things are currently resorting themselves i would like to put my top scumread forward as an option

VP was hard pushing wu vs monkey for pages, and that was because those were the wagons that had the most traction, in his eyes at least, and i agree. consolidation was just barely starting to happen tho, the day still felt pretty early to me when you came in

Tbf nero has been pushing wu for much of the game, your pushes would be better if you read more/listened to the context that people are giving you since i think at best you're coming to conclusions that are based on a diffetent gamestate than the one i've been playing in

you think he's scum
Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

That’s why I asked you to give your opinion of D1
I skimmed VCs and am reading backwards.

Wu/fire/tene/Nero/you

This seems a good grouping with lots of scum

How would you summarize D1 so far?
Townie: fire, ari, tene, vpb, possibly deasvail, possibly yeet
Scummy: fua, nero, eyes

There's a bunch of people in the middle that i havent sorted yet either, but these i feel good on

Was scumreading hem too but i need to reassess now if the claim waa real, i do still sr him on play
Was scumreading dats for a large portion of the game but i think i was tunneled and dont want to vote him anymore, and there were some posts from him.i thought was townie

~

Yeet started the game pushing dats hard and got a bunch of.townreads
Dats made a poor tene vote on like p3 that i founf suspicious, so i voted him, at the time a lot of people were suspicious of him as well and he got wagoned
Hem and ari got into a fight and i think hem's half was a lot worse than ari's
People started trying to condense on hem/wu so we dont have a 4000 post day1, i voted hem
Dont really ger why wu is a wagon tbh, or why we were wagoning him over like scorp frog etc

what's a NAGL

yea obviously there's been people that have had multiple people voting them. but the only one to even get past E-5 was monkey. idk in a game this big i don't really see 3-4 votes as that significant of a wagon. none of them really felt like they were building up to go anywhere until recently on monkey and wu

Don’t get me wrong my predecessor was being mean to put it mildly

But that many votes on policy elims means scum don’t want the active wagons.
