Large Normal 241: Random Pictures and Other Stuff | Day 8

[scamper]

i dont have anything in specific i want to talk about rn which feels awkward

This happen to you as town sometimes? Any examples come to mind?

that was specifically toward ausuka in that i had wanted to mediate the conflict between her and marci but otherwise didnt have anything t talk to her about rn

i feel like some of the townreads being thrown around right now are a little too free,

Which reads bug you?

i dont feel like elaborating on that at this time though

my view of the game is still kind of incomplete - i dont think there is anyone who is overtly scummy, but i dont like assuming scum is all in the least active people. to that end i dont like to extent credit to someone for 'looking solvy' when without meta im going to ssume people have decent ranges. these are just sort of generalized thoughts. i still dont have a good picture of the game in my head yet

truth be told if theres no ~burning questions~ for me i will be lurking and rereading isos

[Aristeia]

I mean when was the last time Datisi rolled town. Is the man even capable of such a thing?

would he even remember how to play town hehe

[Aristeia]

happy birthday ydra!

Firebringer (5): Ydrasse, scamper, VP Baltar, Datisi, fireisredsir

Why is fire the leading wagon rn ?
I didnt really see anything so damning in his iso, and i thought his vote on me was a joke

[Datisi]

Firebringer (5): Ydrasse, scamper, VP Baltar, Datisi, fireisredsir

Why is fire the leading wagon rn ?
I didnt really see anything so damning in his iso, and i thought his vote on me was a joke

going from 689/690 into 695 felt way too easy

i was originally gonna ask baltar why he's voting firebringer, but after giving it a few more seconds of thought, i realized i don't like that progression, actually

I don't really get it? I don't even think that's a progression?

"datisi, i think it's sus you're asking me about my read on yourself rather than someone else" into "ohh, well it won't take me long to get a read on you i think" is kinda. idk it's weird. because the first part says i'm scummy for it, but in the second part, he both accepts my explanation as valid (at least that's what it sounds like) and doesn't give an updated read on me now that he's learned that. like i feel like that sorta "omission" is more likely to come from scum who never actually cared about my alignment and who's more interested in how i'm reading him than showing me how he's reading me - especially as the latter was what prompted our convo in the first place

obviously this is not very strong, but it is a ping and also i like wagons

kinda interested in what @baltar saw there, though

like his priority is appearing consistent with his past town-self rather than putting his thoughts out in the game when i asked for them

@skitt have you read this and what do you think about it

[skitter30]

do you think 308 is fake? that post felt the most likely to be genuine to me. I don't know if I could buy that scum!Tisi invented this sequence of events on the fly, he was rapidposting around then

I'm p sure rhat's in his range to fake ...

my vote on him was a gut thing in that i felt he was trying to lean into the happy funtimes vibes a bit too much

i havent found a better place for it yet

[Ydrasse]

happy birthday ydra!

Happy birthday ydra!

<3

[skitter30]

@skitt have you read this and what do you think about it

I hadnt, but just did

Honestly i dont think it's so damning, and i think you're calling out a playstyle indicative thing for fire rather than a scum indicative thing for fire

I.e. i dont think that him calling you out and than meme-voting is AI or means that he hadnt had a real thought on u

[VP Baltar]

kinda interested in what @baltar saw there, though

Kind of started when FB said I was being laid back or whatever, which I thought was weird and then never followed up on.

The saying you're off for interacting when they asked for interacting, followed by the skitter vote...

It all kind of adds up to like poking at things without conviction of a viewpoint to me. I could see skitter vote as a joke, but still don't feel like FB is pushing in a direction.

@skitter

[skitter30]

@nero i feel like some of his early posts were sort of nudging you in fire's way to see how you'd react to try to read you

i was def not reaction testing nero

Fair enuf, i read it as sort of poking him but i could be wrong

[Ydrasse]

with a bevy of people ~passing the vibe check~ to degrees when someone doesn’t it’s kind of like “well i go here” which is why firebringer

[skitter30]

@vpb again i dont really know if his vote on me is indicative of 'lack of viewpoint/conviction'
(Or at least, is unusual or scum-indicative for him ...)

[VP Baltar]

Grant the birthday ydra's wish and vote FB

[VP Baltar]

@vpb again i dont really know if his vote on me is indicative of 'lack of viewpoint/conviction'
(Or at least, is unusual or scum-indicative for him ...)

It's more than the vote on you. That was just an example. There doesn't seem to be much conviction from FB on anything.

[Aristeia]

what should he have conviction on atp?

[Datisi]

I.e. i dont think that him calling you out and than meme-voting is AI or means that he hadnt had a real thought on u

him voting you is not a part of why i suspect him at all and idk why you're bringing it up

i dislike the way he defaulted onto explaining why his game is consistent with an old towngame rather than continue the line of questioning or explain the read on me

[Datisi]

@vpb again i dont really know if his vote on me is indicative of 'lack of viewpoint/conviction'
(Or at least, is unusual or scum-indicative for him ...)

do you have conviction on anything right now

[skitter30]

going from 689/690 into 695 felt way too easy

@dats for some reason i thought 695 was the vote on me, mb

Either way i dont think this progression is really indicative in the way you're saying it is

And anyways busy day, see y'all tonight

do you have conviction on anything right now

Wtf are you talking about? I'm voting and pursuing plenty of threads. You think I have no conviction, or you just pointlessly shading?

[VP Baltar]

what should he have conviction on atp?

Anything? We are 42 pages in here. Time to start moving the game in a semi serious direction.

[Gamma Emerald]

HEM what are your thoughts on me rn?

[Gamma Emerald]

VOTE: hem dance party wooooo

was this vote serious?

[Aristeia]

is there anything specific you expected to see from Town!FB that you're not seeing or is this just a generalized "he has no takes" thing?
