A uPick of Ice & Fire - Day 12 - #REKT?

[macmollie]

This is you taking a very weak meta-tell and using it as a valid reason for a vote. Absolutely scummy. You've got a whole paragraph explaining your vote, which boils down to "you are accepting my thought process, which you've never done before." It's a horrific tell, and it seems reeeeeally unlikely that anyone can make that case and really believe it's a scumtell.

wow its almost as if I had never been saying that thor looked scummy all day even tho I kept going back and forth on him but then my top 2 town reads were voting him too. if you look at my body of work there is a legit progression there.

this is like the scummy in the game so far I mean srsly freaking scummy

[macmollie]

@ naut

your posts from the night where you stayed up all night and seeing paranoid meltdown curling in the edges (but you never really gave into it) is what has made me put you in the town category cos I could so freaking relate. contrast that to both thor and goat people who have said "oh this game is hard to obtain reads" but aren't exhibiting the same paranoia and that is why they are both in the unsure mebbe scum pile. but thor is at least giving reads.

[AGar]

So wait... because two fairly experienced, above-average players are both gathering difficulty in getting reads but not panicking, they're scum?

thor is at least mebbe if I try hard and work my brain it really is trying but goat people is doing nothing to fix that

[macmollie]

^^^pretty sure I already pointed this out buddy!

Prodding Zdenek

[Zdenek]

This head was about to express support for Zdenek's Amrun vote but then noticed the thing above about sort-of retroactive V/LA. We'll see what happens when she catches up.

You should probably just vote her.

This is pretty compelling. Also, tone in this post suggests to me that Tammy may be town.

Really? because that case is based on meta from about 2 months after SD joined the site.

His votes suck, the ooba wagon is horrible.

What votes?
Why do they suck?
Why is the ooba wagon horrible?

Tell me about your Ooba read?

It's a bit of both. There's the fact that it seems like bullshit, which is scummy, and there's the fact that you're being difficult which is policy.

which is the bullshit part?

Jesus Christ Kanye. The part where you are read Benmage and I differently over our take on Thor's claim, and refusing to explain why.

So no takers on lurker-scum Amrun, but SD is go? I mean I could vote him for his LOL 10 scum-list, but it doesn't excite me all that much. I'd more inclined to move my vote to Thor.

[kanyeknowsbest]

id be happier to lynch lurker "v/la for 80% of the game except she still manages to post elsewhere" amrun than ooba or sd.

[AGar]

Because that nets us what, exactly?

Somehow that doesn't really bother me that much... I mean, he obviously hasn't improved much, so why would his opinions have changed?

The slot's scummy even if you ignore that issue though. On Day 1, it's good enough for me (and I don't like the other suggestions).

I haven't seen amrun around.

i see a lot of posting that isnt happening in here. to her credit though, this is probably a more difficult game to catch up on.

[Alfred Borden]

Safetydance lynch is now vetted and approved by both heads!

Tammy's meta observation and "Let's do this thread" followed in 5 minutes by "vote Thor because deadline approaching and let's sheep Benmage's policy lynch" were the main things that convinced Empire.
873 "I should follow up my read somehow; oh I've found something but the logic doesn't work but I feel obligated to post something so I'll plant it anyway" is cursory / just-for-show scumhunting too.

We would've liked to discuss more of the game but Empire had to go.

[Tierce]

Behold my glorious

drive-by vote

contribution! What is this "actual post" thing.

UNVOTE: ooba
VOTE: SafetyDance

[Tierce]

Oh, something else that had stuck out to me. Nacho already went through it, but yeah, quadz, macmollie is a bad lynch. The inane paranoia is annoying and rather nonsensical, but it's not scummy.

[Shadoweh]

CHOO CHOO
The super-train wagonee hasn't been posting anywhere since his last post here, you know. Maybe he's just busy? :/ I expect people who see the crazy train coming their way will respond with something to the effect of PLEASE NO

Tierce, now that the game you were actually posting in is in night phase, are you going to make that post here? lolcuts DAMNIT TIERCE

[Alfred Borden]

I do feel like we should be seeing more from Amrun. Good flurry -> coasting is worrisome from her.
Her stuff so far works from town though.

SM looks town. #1015 & #1297 in particular, but mostly he's doing the right things and has several posts that would be good fakes.

[Shadoweh]

So you're saying he shouldn't spontaneously combust at night? Because I don't know, I think macmollie should spontaneously combust. The fires were very clear on this cleansing thing and I hate the smell of scottish garbage.

[Alfred Borden]

Then we could have haggis!

[Tierce]

lolcuts DAMNIT TIERCE

I CAN SEE THE FUTURE
And I don't even need some disgusting leeches or some silly FWOOOOSHing flames.

And no, macmollie shouldn't spontaneously combust, though I'm rather chomping at the bit to return the favor there. Plus, haggis, ew. Seriously, Llalfred?


I get the feeling the Amrun situation is sitewide, though I wouldn't lose any sleep over murder death kill there. That's a slot I'm not taking RL excuses from.

[Shadoweh]

How do you see the future with leeches anyways? I thought they were a witch doctory healing thing. Does it involve setting them on fire?
Also thanks to you I just read some thread about the church and transgenders and I feel dirty, THANKS TIERCE

[Alfred Borden]

Hey, I've adventured so far as to attempt eggs with salsa and candycorn. Also I once made a fish and on one half I melted half a hershey bar and on the other half I melted some brie. Neither half was really improved though.
And one time I gave some underclassmen bars of soap and they had to not drop them during the duration of a Prison themed scavenger hunt with shivs and rock breaking.

In other news, Thor is pretty opaque and could be scum.

[Alfred Borden]

If anyone ever offers you Creamy Chicken flavored ramen, the correct answer is to shout "IT'S SLIME TIME" and devour it with enthusiasm.

[Alfred Borden]

I reverse my read on shadoweh.

Tierce is a scumread that wont get lynched today.
Garruks scum.
^ lynch either of them - they will flip scum

Let me look at the VC before voting.

@Nautilius:

Thank you for 473. I still don't have a read on you - but that's the best "defense of ooba" post I've seen in quite a while.
Addn: Slight town read for 484 - exactly what I was thinking after -

"This quadz wagon is lame. ooba is better. elle is town."

- Amrun's voting me? Scroll up to VC - nope.

Thats easy. Thor is not someone i want lynched today. SafetyDance either.

unvote. Vote: Garruk

Those of you who think im town and are on single vote wagons would do well to consolidate.

@Mage: I have a couple of strong scum reads and id really like to see them lynched. Not feeling Thor-scum - and it doesnt just boil down to the miller claim.

@Alfred: Because im town.

Tammy makes a good point about safety disappearing. Id be happier about my read if he continued to contribute.

Yeah, I do not sanction an Ooba lynch. This is all pretty good stuff.
Straight opinions, reevaluation, interest in making sure town lynches well.
He also hasn't autopursued the most likely counterwagon to himself.

[elleheathen]

Not sure where elles getting the paranoia thing. I'm paranoid when i get to late game and setup speculation, not early game.

It comes naturally... Not answering me isn't helping.
