My distrust of my own reads is so strong that
I literally insisted on playing for a ~2% EV increase over voting someone I felt had no way of being town in white flag.


If he's going to try and talk me specifically off the ledge that's fine but everything about that post says that its target was a general audience and that he's fine letting my beliefs stick.
This carries some weight given your histories. I'll mull on it.

Ffery I skimmed vcs why was there a vax wagon he looks town

he does. I had some concerns about his first few posts, but liked how he settled in.

Any waganomics thoughts? or too soon?

I doubt Cabd and syry are scum together at a glance, but I need a flip or two to feel better about it. Granted, both were on the wagon at all and that’s a tad concerning. I don’t think I got to the wagon yet but I’ll look as it builds, he screams low confidence town. He had a post that I could see myself writing (as town) but not as scum.

'I actually had this thought 45 pages ago Cabd. Whiteknighting vax was a move I thought would be pretty viable for scum here both on a "protect the miselim bait to look better should they flip" and a "if they dont flip they get easily pocketed"

Yeah I'm just teasing because ffery and I both have skitter in the bottom tier of reads as of 20 pages ago.

The more I read the less viable you and Syr are together, which is nice. At least one of you will be town. I'm currently just past your bold ffery vote (I stole what DGB said because I thought the same thing. Also thinking DGB's vote on Ben to make him do things followed by saying she doesnt see a world where peta is town raised some eyebrows.

Well:
A) he's not nearly as scummy as he is being made out to be, and he's just like an easy push that i imagine would be super easy for scum to make
B) that is indeed something i would do as scum, so i dont particularly take issue with this assessment

I mean, I clearly agree given my recent posts that vax is town. I still don't think I've gotten to him getting an *actual* push yet, so your defense of him seems premature and lends itself more towards pocketing.

I'm not really looking to argue the point, I'm still finishing my read through but as is you seem the best place to keep my vote.

Syry are you scum :( you're going to break my heart

I know he gets disinterested as town sometimes ~points at a buncha Rift games~

Post hiatus he's been at least fairly high energy in every game, if not Fermi level boisterous.

Game-hate is a thing, though.

I was actually surprised at the benhalkum slot being this town, which had/has a good chance of being scum by default, only to remember you're Mod Pizza and suddenly this makes more sense to me.

Actually "fairly" doesn't describe any of the games. FGO in-thread, maybe, but we were spamming up our neighborhood.

Notsci you think syr's alignment is a function of his postcount in the year of our scumbutt 2020?!?!?

My read is not "game hate"

It's- I think his accusation of Cabd getting in the way of you/Bork and you/syry linking up looked more like Syry getting in the way of you/Cabd linking up. I feel like as scum syry's gameplan would be to get in one of yours/cabds pockets and hope they can soothesay the other half.

I have softened my stance on petapan, prompting me to watch videos to teach myself how to twerk.

I mean, that's all fine and dandy but my point was your vote was on someone as an activity push over someone you seemed very confident in a scumflip at the time.

Cabd has been the major obstacle to our linking up. That and my fade.
