ftr I think your word choice of trust/middle ground/distrust over the traditional tow/null/scum is a little odd but

In post 2114, Gamma Emerald wrote:I’ve actually been townreading you so far but this is souring that rapidly
Why were you tow reading me before and why did I only fall to middle ground and not distrust?

Why did you not join the con wagon?
Because there’s only one point that made me not think you were town, which was the self-deprecating joke, which felt a little like covering yourself potentially, but I think I will just leave things at that
Didn’t vote CMM because I low key want to see some people explain they’re voting there
We're falling through space, you and me, clinging to the skin of this tiny little world, and if we let go...That's who I am.

I’m very sick, expect a huge drop off in quantity of posts from me till I. I read some posts that made me think Gamma was scum but I’m a bunch of pages behind and don’t have any energy to actually try to convince anyone so. That’s my read of the day, happy 3-day weekend to those who get one
Hey all! Excited and nervous to play my first game with you!

Can you explain what this means? I see town express that kind of read and sentiment all the time. It's extremely natural for a townie to be looking for people who seem like they know they'll flip town and are potentially maneuvering around that.

It means, I don't care much if conman is the D1 lim, and if he'd like me to just vote him without actually thinking about his alignment just to prove something, I will.

I’m not done catching up but I have limited time so I will use it to respond to things that were directly pointed at me

I have historically never known how to read Firebringer and generally have been bad at attempting

The only thing that leapt out to me from him was his reaction to Datisi, where he reflexively prodded datisi when he was prodded

I thought that interaction was mildly townie from both slots

I’ll try to stay caught up but activity will be low until Monday

Also, sorry GL for being a little bratty last I was in thread. I think my fragile ego took a bit of a bruising from everyone calling my reaction to Frogster level 0, because jumping on that sort of thing and sussing out reactions is generally how I start every game

I thought you might’ve recognized that from me jumping on Kuti at the beginning of Turing Test

But I’m not gonna hash that out anymore because I’ve largely moved past it

This feels a little inconsistent with joining the wagon on Eiralox and not explaining for the purposes of pressure?

I feel like you can work out why people might be voting there?

If I recall a few people joined the Eiralox wagon without much explanation after fireisred, why is this different?

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.

can you explain why you have this impression

I don't think I've really been very in sync with Datisi, and I also think I've done my own stuff that Datisi hasn't agreed with or hasn't been pushing himself

so, I don't really get this comment
That was what i was seeing when i read this game. I see u doing other stuff than engage with dats, but it seems like when i read dats is where ur strongest engagement and everything else is background stuff that might have purpose but isn't doing much.

sup

I've been thinking about this game a lot and really wanting to settle down and get to it, I've just had a tumultuous couple of days in the process of moving/work - I should be able to tonight =)

I just wanted to pop in quickly to check when the deadline is for the day?

VC 1.13
Dannflor (5): humaneatingmonkey, GuiltyLion, Frogsterking, Datisi, fireisredsir
ConManMick (4): Ydrasse, Aristeia, Irrelephant11, Ausuka
GuiltyLion (4): obscure, DeasVail, Dannflor, VP Baltar
obscure (1): Firebringer
Aristeia (1): ConManMick
Frogsterking (1): Gamma Emerald
Irrelephant11 (1): Nero Cain
Not voting (3): marcistar, xofelf, scamper
Day 1 will end in (expired on 2022-09-09 23:15:00). With 20 alive, 11 is needed to lim and 10 to no lim.
Mod notes: I don’t think I’ll be on in 6 hours so this is a pre-emptive prod for xofelf, if they come to the thread within those 6 hours then they won’t get an official prod.

No I'm here, I had a lot going on yesterday though I tried to keep up.

I don't usually do readslists so there isn't one in my iso. I can give a vibeslist though? Once I finish work for the day that is.
