We've got 50 pages of content. I think we're in a decent position to solve the game as soon as we get a couple of flips. We can't stay in day 1 fucking forever. I don't care if i'm called out as anti-town player for saying it, these are my honest feelings.

1200+ posts isn't nearly enough to have any opinions or narrow our PoE at all, every lynch is still equally up for consideration and any attempts to consolidate wagons will be prosecuted with extreme prejudice

This is why you were immediately one of my favorite players on the whole site

I think I prefer this over Glitch, who I'm not sure isn't just new town who scumreads people for not explaining reads.
Mainly sheeping Nauci's metacase tbh. I also think him forgetting to use his vote is scum indicative
You convinced me. VOTE: Osuka
Can you talk to me a bit about why you switched from NDMath to osuka here?

Game. Hasn't. Stalled.
What exactly is the point of shortening the Day when new stuff is being discussed every page?

I think it's actually more anti-town to keep posting until we have a 100 page day 1 because it's going to become a huge chore to read back on the game with the knowledge of flips further down the line if you need to casually stroll through eternal pages of content. Making it harder to see things from the bigger perspective.

Content matters more than how easy/hard it is to read the game. More content = better gamestate.

I think you will find it difficult to demonstrate from my ISO that I am advocating for shortening the day.
I am advocating for narrowing our lynch pool and rolling our sleeves up to get serious about who we are going to lynch today, because these things take time and it's usually good practice for town to have a pretty good idea of who the lynch will be between by this point in the day.

Please be advised we are wagoning CSF, NDMath, and Osuka.
The Osuka wagon kind of feels like it came out of nowhere to become a front runner to me.

Quick, if you want more quality content before the phase ends, start producing it. All of your recent posts have been petty barbs, not game solving - maybe that's why the game feels stalled.

Exactly.
Also, a vote is only valid if you wait 3 IRL days and casually type the word "vote player" with your toes while sipping a glass of wine almost as if the vote was a casual afterthought distracting you from the real business you were doing.
Honestly, i wish people would learn to play like real PROS on this site. These plebeians thinking we shouldn't completely maximise our wincon by using every single second on the deadline and having every player available to hammer a wagon at 1 second before deadline are completely disgusting and should be wiped clean from the forum for the sake of our site's purity.

I'm questioning your bull shit. Isn't that content? You seem easy peezy with ending the day when you probably are not even caught up and probably don't have a firm grasp on the game yet. Do you just want D1 to end so you can get caught up? That would be lazy. Please explain how ending the day when content is still being produced is Pro-Town, thanks. If not, demonstrate at what point the game starts to give diminishing returns OUTSIDE of the actual content producing diminishing returns.
Note: You'll never be able to give a good showing here like this if all you want to do is fight content by producing shit content.
My lead on you is content. If you don't care for me to have a good beat on you, then by all means, end the day. If you have nothing to hide, however, then limiting content when it's still being produced is one part stupid and one part Scummy until proven otherwise.
Now, I've given you reasons for why it's better to keep going. Here's another reason: Getting slots like ND to produce more content so we can get a better read on slots that don't post that often benefits Town immensely. So at this point we can drop all the extra content produced by the active players and only look at the content produced by the less active players and still call it an overall win. But for some reason, you are content to just lynch those slots because you feel you have a good enough grasp of those slots as a whole? I don't think you are fully caught up yet so this would be a pretty contradictory stance from you. I still want to see more from ND and Looker especially, and that's even barring my SR of Glitch which no one really wants to vote for who knows what reason. If trajectory serves right, one of those slots will end up Town telling with more content and we can get a better look at what to do in future days with better, more substantial content from these less active players. So tell me, why is it really you want to end the day early?
