The Wire, Season 1 - Final Credits!

[camn]

Plenty of the good guys on the show are black, too!

But I dont see how this convo is useful.

[jasonT1981]

Yea but there is not one white person in the Barksdale crew from memory. So anyone claiming a white guy would be not town.

Nice work giving it away. Would you give away the stash house location that easily?

[The Mini-Librarian]

Sottyrulez eh? I take it Zach/Sotty hydra as opposed to just Sotty which is listed?

Over compensating already... oh dear.

VOTE: Ser Arthur Dayne

Why didn't you comment on SAD's post in your first post?

SAD? who?

[jasonT1981]

Ah nevermind....

To answer, he had not posted when I made my first post...

how could I have?

[The Mini-Librarian]

His is 22...

[The Mini-Librarian]

Gah.

I mean why didn't you mention it in post 23.

My bad.

[jasonT1981]

didn't catch my eye until I took a 2nd read through. When I saw it I made my thoughts on it...

you will see over time that my quoting and talking about others will sometimes be out of order. I will sometimes talk about something that was said after something else I will talk about.

And all you heard was me rambling lol.. you will get used to it. But in short it only caught my eye the 2nd time around.

[absta101]

I don't like black people, I'm requesting a white man role

^^^^

you must be a member of the cops then lol

Shouldn't have said this...
I haven't watched season 1 in a year or so but from what I can remember there shouldn't be any white people in town.

[absta101]

I'm not used to this speed. My activity/effort should get better after this friday which is my last exam. Not sure if I've already mentioned that.

Massclaim? Names only?

[Vifam]

Nah scum probably have fakeclaims

[Benmage]

Previous experience with Faraday as mod, and he gives scumfakeclaims....

[Benmage]

Petapan's vote drew my attention to absta's #8, which is more likely to be a scum post than a detached vote for nobody in particular.

Really?

Course it is. It can feel braver as scum to make a confrontation (for want of an apt but less serious word) like that of a page-one statement. I certainly felt that way as scum once or twice; consciously or otherwise.

I'm not sure I follow... you think scum seek confrontation?

What Speed?

[TheGreatestAmericanHero]

Jason, why is 22 more likely to come from scum? Thoughts on peta's 37 then?
We won't be signing posts, as we feel that our posting styles are easily distinguishable. rofl doesn't capatilize anything.

This is good shit right here. Mofo gets real tight and scared and shit, tellin' ya he's hiding wires.

You my niqqa why you be hatin' though?

[ChannelDelibird]

Not quite, as I tried and failed to express, and close. My experience is that sometimes scum can feel like they should engage actively with an early part of the conversation, be it escalating a random joke or, in this case, picking out a post and flipping it back at the poster as a jokey reason to vote them off the bat. It's certainly something that I've done as scum before, to varying degrees of being conscious about it.

To be honest, I'm not 100% convinced that I've accurately expressed in writing there what feels like a really simple notion in my head, so apologies if it's still unclear. It's just about a psychological compulsion, in the unpredictable early stages of the game, to "do something town", whatever that means for the player in question.

[Ser Arthur Dayne]

Jason - serious vote on Arthur?

Serious as anything we have had so far.

Nah nah nah look at this right here, then:

And all you heard was me rambling lol.. you will get used to it. But in short it only caught my eye the 2nd time around.

You take extra caution to make your jokes, or you hiding some wires?

[Benmage]

@SAD, RP'rs are annoying. Please stop.

@CBD I think I get what you're suggesting, or trying to explain...from my experience scum can tend to overthink how to "properly" interject themselves into a game. I often find over-the-top 'cutesy' attitudes to come from scum. Is this the case here.... I don't know.

[Benmage]

^Early cutesy behavior that is, not necessarily their first game post.

Yeah, this is my point, and what I'm not saying is "this is proof that absta is scum". I'm saying "this reason why absta could be scum is a better reason to vote him than it is to leave a random vote on somebody else".
