The Beetlejuice is somewhat intentional. I'm here and checking in while I read. I even said yesterday I'm here if needed. But I haven't finished reading yet. So the things people are talking about I don't have context on. So I'm kind of refreshing and looking for my name.
The activity thing there isn't really any more to say on and you seem to understand anyway.

ok so we're like halfway through the day and have like 5 slots that aren't doing anything ...

@ dats i'm not sure i feel *better* about you but was kinda thinking through a lot of the things you said and they feel less bad than they do before, and i am kinda seeing how your fickleness can come from a townie place. i'm not convinced it *does* but i'm also not convinced it's scummy anymore either, if htat makes sense

@ sleepless ok thanks ... i think i want to keep my vote on for now and see what happens. curious to see your post, when you have a chance

I was gonna post it right before I go to bed. I have aspirations of finishing reading the thread first but realistically I just want to get as far as I can.

I was going to but wanted a vc cuz i'm lazy and before that happened i embarked on this sleepless thing and now i want to pressure him a bit but i'll probably switch to midway depending on how this goes
What do u think abt him

by PookyTheMagicalBear
I kind of think you're scum with him because you pressured everyone in the bottom 7 except for him and your interactions with him are kind of strange

well I guess you didn't pressure Andante because she's really townie but p much everyone else has been thrashed at least a few times >.>

Well i'm not sure what the bottom 7 have to do with it, but sure, why are my interactions strange?
Pedit or what u mean by bottom 7 either, andante's on top of me in the draft

And i wouldnt really say that i 'thrashed' most of those people

I mean numbers below 7.
I thought you were aggressively interacting with the slots below 7 to sort for who is scum in the low numbers.
You didn't really do it with Andante because she's quite hyper and fairly townread but I remember you were heavily sorting Datisi/Mare and kind of threw some softballs at me. It's your interaction with mwb that is kind of confusing because everything in your iso regarding his slot is kind of like ???

I really hadnt noticed any correlation between who i was pushing and what number they drafted tbh (other than, like, catboi), so if you're reading anything into that its certainly not international on my end
What's the significance of 'under 7' anyways / why would i care abt that?
And again i object to the characterization of 'thrashing'. You got a few softballs since i wanted to sort you but you have really done much to interact with untol like right now
And idk how to respond to 'my interactions with midway are ???' Or what that means
And i gotta bounce like now but i'll pick this up tom, have a great weekend!

and like if you think the people who aren't
doing anything
are scummy and you think the game state is stagnant, it's kind of easy to actually cast a vote that will matter instead of vanity voting SA who isn't really even here?
it just feels like you're going through the motions rather than actually doing something that will move the game state forward.
anyways do you want to vote MWB together? you think he is mafia anyway right?

That feeling started when he posted this as I was catching up:
I then really did not like the set of posts described here, where I felt the push on Mare was weird in its strength and the reason for not voting a copout. It made me want to flip both.
Contextually it is important to note that the moment I singled out Cakez as scum in Xenoblade was when he defended my slot for little to no reason. This never really made it into the main thread except in passing, as he had other players tunneling him and I did not publicly post until after the fact (I just told my hydra partner, catboi, about it)
With this in mind, Cakez's attack on Pooky for the read on me made no sense to me and struck a similar chord, because Pooky's vote made
total sense
.
Finally this kind of put me over the edge:

I split the slots in my head into under 7 / over 7 cuz that's about where you can expect to get a power role.(its not science its just me guessing)
I think scum are incentivized in this setup to go into the low numbers to get good stuff to deny it to town and make themselves harder to yeet.
I think of the game as trying to figure out who the baddies are in the low numbers and then using that to sort the rest of the game because I think it's almost impossible for scum to go all high numbers and win this game?
I have spoken a few times about how I did not really like it. I didn't think your original posts gave much. It's really going to get revisited as part of my meta project on you when I have the time.

I really am not a fan of the current midwaybear vote. I am putting off revisiting the slot and doing the legwork as the catchup already took a lot out of me in conjunction with grad school applications+vacation/travel but I would really prefer Cakez or flow trap at the moment.

I initially bought the chihuahua vs. bear argument with Cakez but given the largely tonal nature of it, and knowing that there is a lot of history since that I am missing, I have grown increasingly skeptical which is why it's on my projects list to review.
