twenty (adj., n.)


"1 more than nineteen, twice ten; the number which is one more than nineteen; a symbol representing this number;" Old English
twentig
"group of twenty," from
twegen
"two" (from PIE root "two") +
-tig
"group of ten" (see

). Cognate with Old Saxon
twentig
, Old Frisian

twintig
, Old High German
zweinzug

twai tigjus
is even more transparent: literally "two tens."

The card game
twenty-one
(1790) is from French
vingt-et-un
(1781).
Twenty-twenty hindsight
is first recorded 1962, a figurative use of the Snellen fraction for normal visual acuity, expressed in feet. The guessing game of
twenty questions
is recorded from 1786 (a late 19c. parlor variation on it was called
clumps
).

N_M wasting his vote on a slot that’s not got any other votes and ignoring the other leading wagon is weird if scum.

That’s because you’ve gone so far off the deep end in attempting to be humorous that nobody understands you anymore.

I’m on board with all of these, especially hawker.

These are also (I believe) the first, second, and third most lurkey slots. Do you have any reads that aren’t on lurkers? Or was that the basis of your reads?
I've given a number of non-lurker reads already.

I'm also not scumreading those slots for their lurking, but for their content (or lack thereof).
scumreading for early lurking without content is the same thing as scumreading for not having content
I don’t get what point you’re trying to make here.

It doesn't seem rational to be hung up on having one vote on you when the vote count has 2 rolling wagons and traction on a third.

What is it about Not Mafia's vote that's got to you?

I was half bluffing the statement tbqh. When I enter a game I pretend to make strong reads that I myself am not actually confident in because strong reads generate strong reactions which lead to stronger reads.

not_mafia's gameplay has lacked any sort of stance taking, which is something I saw when playing with him in our last game where they were town with me.

But overall I want the PR claim to resolve itself here as there's that chance he's just being a troll on purpose as a PR. I don't lim PR claims on D1 even if they are "scummy". D2 onward is fair game though.

Lots of shiny wagons. I like this in the long term.

In the short term, I'm conflicted bc the people I don't think are town are agreeing with me.

I still prefer a PlusJOYED elim for this reason:

rustiness applies more to being scum than town. town is natural. scum is not.

Hayker is basically a newbie (based on their meta and play style), and generally newbies look scummy as either alignment. I’m willing to give him a little more leeway than PlusJOYED, given the context.
