I'm willing to vote anyone but meif the argument or the circumstances are good enough.
I want to vote those people.
I am interpreting this to mean that he would vote basically anyone other then himself if we were in the right circumstance, (such as being at deadline.)
But prior to reaching that circumstance, he has a list of people he would prefer to vote currently.
To me, that makes you saying that it is too early for that moot.
Not sure what you are interpreting differently.I have a GTKAS now! - Come ask me questions!

I am prepping for a presentation so cannot make good real-time convo at the moment, but we want to know what are good pages to read content wise.
And I say "we" because I'm plural.
Think of us as a hydra that shares a body.
Pedit
I did a very short ISO skim on Toog's beginning of the game and saw that the PT was known, then a logic leap that Bell was outed.Frogsterking wrote:

If T-Bone has an alt I've played with before I have a guess as to who it is.
@TalyI want to know why you thought Bell had outted.

Okay, fair enoughBruce: Terry. I've been thinking about something you once told me... and you were wrong. It's not Batman that makes you worthwhile; it's the other way around. Never tell yourself anything different.

I think you're giving him credit "reaching the right circumstances" rather than taking the conversation and what he said as is. I can see why you read it that way, but I think the credit you're giving him here is unearned. I think you're giving him credit because you feel you know him as a player rather than reacting to what he's saying and how he's playing.I have a Twitch!

I asked why they were not being considered.
He said that he would consider anybody, but that doesn't make them his preference.

I guess so, you were there I wasn't, let's set that aside. I was hoping you'd chime in on my post, but I was hoping you'd look into more of what I called arbitrary use of meta. It's not a strategy I personally believe is effective, so I can't fairly critique whether he's using it effectively or not. Maybe he is, I don't know. It doesn't look like it, but it's also something I wouldn't spend time.doing myself. I don't get the same sense from you, if that helps contrast.I have a Twitch!

I am not really sure what use you feel is arbirary?
You mentioned meta dives, but i don't think he has done a single meta dive so far.In post 1034, T-Bone wrote:Some players get meta dives, some players get recollections from previous games, and some players Bell just takes someone else's word for it.
All I have noticed is regular comparisons to past games that he has played in, with a high frequency of those comments being directed at people he has played a lot of games with : like Pooky or Ceph.
Maybe if you grab particular examples of what you mean?I have a GTKAS now! - Come ask me questions!

Just to provide context where I'm coming from. In my experience it's incredibly easy as scum to manipulate players who rely on meta to form their reads. It's also incredibly easy as scum to fake the work of doing meta reads. So, when I analyze a player who says they are forming reads based on meta, the question is always ask myself is "is this real effort or fake?" Which I know is incredibly a vague thing to look for. It's always a feeling for me. Sometimes I get it right and sometimes I don't.
We probably also don't use the same terminology so me saying meta dive in retrospect is unhelpful.I have a Twitch!

I will try to iso Bell tonight to look for this in particular.In post 1060, T-Bone wrote:Maybe you're right in that I'm mistaking familiarity/comfort with some players over others as being arbitrary.
Also, I use meta dive to mean actively going out to read other games. CSF did one earlier for frogsterI have a GTKAS now! - Come ask me questions!

I think Pooky, Malcolm and Luke are the most likely to be genuinely wrong about my alignment.
I guess now I'd categorize your vote as a meme/late RVS vote.
I know nothing about you and I'm hoping you will say something townie so I can remove you from the PoE.@RodenBruce: Terry. I've been thinking about something you once told me... and you were wrong.

Because I don't think meta is a good way to read you in games.
Your town play feels fairly erattic to the point that it is hard to find clear patterns between your town play and scum play
I generally just resort for gut reading you, and just praying that you somehow get resolved before end gameI have a GTKAS now! - Come ask me questions!
