I'll set my alarm to a decent time today so I can hopefully have a dialogue before work.

Meanwhile, hello Pie!
I hope we can solve this game together.

This smells stinky. Not sure why. Too earnest?
How about you ask me why I said it before jumping to conclusions?
Explain how it smells stinky apart from "gut"

It was because of the events of the last game we played together(Pie).

Nothing solid to go on, so it's something like gut read, him making a bit more effort than usual and he is thinking outside the box.
You sound like you don't like him on a personal level, but you never said anything about your read on him?

And i came back like ~30 min's ago, pretty tired so i will take some sleep and then see if something interesting happened.

I don't like him because I lose every game which he is in. I don't have much of a read on him. I'd lynch him day 1 if push comes to shove.

I think AJ is just manufacturing reasons to SR Ob Alt, he's on l-2 and thinks that he needs to make a counter wagon and Ob Alt looks the best bet right now.

Same with Shadow, in reverse. I've played with both pie and NS before, but it's been a while, and I don't get a strong read off of them yet. They're playing things close to the chest. Post quantity =! quality, and it =! a read.
have you played w/ me before?

also were you gonna circle back to your very first post about flavor claiming?

and 224 isn't meta, i don't know why you're trying to make it meta.

they're saying 'this is what town would do', not 'this is what you specifically as town would do'

like i realizes he says 'town-AJ' but that's just saying you, in that position, as a town player, would have done, not that they have reason to believe you would because you're you and not someone else

You realize my point for 227 is I simply hadn't been tunneling TOB and so pie's statement was a lie.

the three posts were:
1) You answering notty about TOB in
2) You asking a question you later admitted you didn't care about at all
3) which the first paragraph is not about anything but game mechanics and the second is talking to me about TOB again

VOTE: AJ (L-1)

reads right now:
town:
seiko (ns showed up)
charloux
TOB (notty i'm willing to engage on this but you've got a lot of convincing to do, I think you're seeing orchestration that isn't there and bubbles just likes to be really dramatic and silly)

maybe town:
S_S (there's a somewhat honest undertone that I am detecting in stuff like
OA(no real issues with the catch up, just not enough there yet, would like to see her angle on why I am worth a burden of proficiency paranoia moment but someone like syr isn't - working on that),
syr (really just don't have a very good handle on this slot, nothing reads overtly scummy; i liked his early game even if everyone else didn't; is following me around awfully close though)

rest:
AJ
Dunn (admit this is a pocket read based off a reread, and could change if his vote-power (?) is pro-town in an obvious way, but my read here has really deteriorated; he is now not engaging anyone with any kind of frankness and is being really choosy about what he decides to respond to, which to me is warning of scum who has found himself in a comfortable early game global tier-2 town read and doesn't want any boat rocking. Compare to Charloux who hasn't really altered his posting style at all over the course of the game)

p-edit:
In post 227, Seiko x Naomi wrote:AJ also continues to focus almost entirely exclusively on his TOB read
This is pretty much what you did. You posted about either TOB or irrelevant shit.

Bump!

And some bump trivia for you:

Rotating a hero in the ingame shop too fast will cause them to go into their dizzy animation state!
I prefer doing this with characters who have swooshy parts.
