Mini Normal 2276: Around the World - Game Over!

[Datisi]

not to mention it came after you got a wagon on yourself again specifically for the push on me

[Roden]

It does seem like the momentum keeps switching between Marci and Alex though.

is this facts roden

It seems so. You were the leading wagon initially, then Alex, and now you again.

That's the thing though, I don't think she did anything different that earned her second wagon. If she's fucking up then she's fucking up for three days straight. What happened to her wagon the first time around?

her first wagon was an early rvs wagon and people just got bored and decided to try pushing something else? then once she got back and started spewing bad takes again, people voted again? it's not that deep.

I get why she's getting voted again. I just don't think it's that simple.

Firstly, I'd disagree that she didn't do anything to justify her second wagon - the way she handled that interaction with datisi was god awful

Secondly, the 'momentum' between Marci and Alex seems to be just me and Datisi. I think I've explained the reasoning in my votes at the very least. I don't think the wagons were large enough for this analysis to be particularly meaningful.

I'm not saying her second wagon isn't justified, I'm saying nothing about her play this game has changed. I think it's weird that scum would do something that got them scum read, escape the wagon, then continue to act the exact same way and get themself run up again.

Bella, Scamper, and Alex have also voted Marci. Though Alex only voted Marci because he decided to sheep you around the time her wagon regained momentum, before that he was town reading her.

okay but why did you stop, what are you doing right now, how are you approaching this game

do u have thoughts beyond datisi being scum or not?

i stopped because i had work...

right now im trying to go afk cuz thats the vibes, but then yall keep making convo about me so obv im gonna join in??

my approach this game is to just say what im thinking when im thinking. i think ive done enough of that early on.
now that the game is kicked off, my intention is to go afk (which work partly helps with). the reason i want to go afk is because i dont trust my opinions when im a loud voice in the town. so i sort of want to fade out, let someone else take spotlights and then read it all after and see if i have any better conclusions then. possibly gonna mess around and hard defend someone depending on how my read on said person is.

i could prob have other thoughts but datisi loves the attention, i know deep down he does...

This kinda feels genuine to me, I think Marci is probs town

[marcistar]

??

the post shows im at least thinking
its not my fault u didnt care to ask for details

It feels like you're just changing your behaviour after being called out and then saying the initial, accurate accusation isn't valid because of it.

[marcistar]

nah

[Ausuka]

@Roden; I might have misinterpreted your statement about momentum then. I'm still not super clear about what you're getting at here? I would say Marci's recent play is significantly scummier than the stuff she did earlier in the game personally and I'm not sure where the assertion her play hasn't changed at all is coming from - I think that's rarely true for anyone.

[Roden]

I don't think she's gotten any scummier honestly. She got wagon'd the first time around because of her interactions with Crescent, where she was weirdly hyper critical of her and shading her intentions. She got wagon'd again for criticizing and shading Datisi, just this time she admitted she didn't know what she was even arguing about. She's been doing the same thing all game and it's been a major reason why I keep going back and forth between thinking she's scummy and then going "ok that was kinda townie".

[Roden]

I guess this is more "my thoughts on Marci are complicated and I'm confused about wtf is going on with her" and less a defense of Marci, in case it's coming across as the latter

[Ausuka]

I mean I guess I see where you're coming from? Personally I think Marci's recent posts have been much scummier and I've tried to outline why

[Roden]

I do see your point, and since I town read you and Datisi I feel like your takes have some weight and that's something I'm taking into account

Occam's Razor says Marci's probably just scum here and that she's being confusing on purpose to try to go for "too scummy to be scummy"

Gut says that I'm missing info that would explain her actions

[Roden]

Since I scum read Alex, I'm also taking into account a scenario where scum!Alex is voting town!Marci, and I'm trying to understand how that works out with how scummy Marci's been. Mainly because I really hate Alex's vote. It's possible they're both scum too.

[marcistar]

im not scum..

[marcistar]

yall just hate on me cuz its what easiest and doesnt make u need to reevaluate ur reads

[Ausuka]

I mean I'm obviously sympathetic to the idea of scum Alex? But like yeah, there are worlds where this is bussing, or worlds where Alex is just town who voted Marci because she's being scummy

I'm not ruling out the idea that there's something that would explain this from town Marci but I'm not sure what it would be? I checked some past games and I don't think she's Like This as town

I didn't think Alex's vote was terrible but I'm probably biased because it was sheeping me! I guess hopefully he'll clarify about it when he returns from v/la

Pedit: so true

[Roden]

yall just hate on me cuz its what easiest and doesnt make u need to reevaluate ur reads

Who do you think needs to be reevaluated?

[scamper]

oh maybe datisis town actually im so confused

so were u not reading him as town when u accused him of tunneling in 752? (this is why i was asking you about your read of him earlier...)

[scamper]

further: what made you say he might actually be town?

[JohnnyFarrar]

Adding Roden to my "don't wanna vote them today" bucket

[JohnnyFarrar]

I follow Aussie's logic with Marci, but Alex jumping there as well makes me nervous, I'm still more confident we get a red flip there

[Gamma Emerald]

gamma, who is scum

I think someone in the hood (possibly Corwinoid or Freedom), as well as a secret scumread
Aside from that there are people I think

could

be scum but am not sure
