On the one hand, this game is off to a very slow start.
On the other hand, I'm curious to see how ranger's read lists look with such a small sample of posts to read from.

murderkat, he's saying it's not that hard to find. you could literally open the mod's profile ,hit view topics, and control f "diffusion", and find it within 5 minutes. The point Chip was making was not that it was Try!Hard for Town!Points to want to read the game, we should ALL want to read the past game for setup spec.
What Chip is complaining about is that he literally JUST says "hey guys look i want to do some setup spec, im so town, but while im trying hard to do town things, i'm also too lazy to spend the ten seconds to look up the game myself, so this is just a surface attempt at looking helpful"
The message the question is meant to portray is completely contrary to the message he actually displays by asking the question. he wants to display "look at how involved I am" but he actually displays "look at how lazy i am while trying to look involved"
Was a really good catch by Chip. when i first read it the post confused the shit out of me, I had no idea what game the man was talking about! I knew there was another diffusion of power game hosted at somepoint iirc from the game blurb when the mod /in'd to mod in the queue. But his post was very ambiguous about it what he was asking for. However, I don't think it's a serious enough infraction on day one for use to start putting serious!votes on him.
However, unless he comes in and tells us the results of his research he said he was going to do (but to lazy to research the topic himself), I am highly inclined to vote him. So, podoboq, how'd that research go?

I get what he's saying, I don't think it's a big deal, I do that as town.
Something is pinging me really hard about your post though.

Karnos is at L-2. I'm not pushing that wagon any more.

I did go to dave's page and ctrl-f "diffusion."
This is what I found. I heard this was a reroll with a lot of the same players, so I thought that's probably not the game I'm looking for. I searched for five minutes, then just decided to ask, and read the other games instead.
I wanted to find out if mass claiming was a strategy people have tried employing. It seems that it isn't.

I did find out though, that some people are dumb enough to go along with a n-0 cop claim, so there's that.

We decided last game it was not a great idea.

I'm not really bothered by it. The game is two days in with one page to look at. He's just over analyzing. That's not scummy.

It was a gambit, but people actually followed it for several pages, which I think is kind of hilarious.

What's pinging me about
27 is that I'm being talked to in a way (tone wise) that usually only comes about when someone has a strong town read on me later in the game. There's of course no way to know I'm town yet, unless you are scum. I also don't like the "it's a really good catch" part (feels like a buddy) but then saying it's not worthy of a vote. But then unless you give content he's highly inclined to vote. It feels like he doesn't have a real opinion, but he's trying to make it seem like he does.

For the record, the game you are looking for is this one:

Yeah, the point I made is not so heavy but, hey, the game was stalling...

^ i.e. Open 640. Dave wasn't Mod. The Mod was thisismyusername, who abandoned the game after making a moderr.

Hmmm.
Sure, my vote on Cakez isn't doing anything except being cute, and I'm picking up what you're putting down.

I bookmarked it earlier, thanks. Since the playerbase of that game is over half of this game's I think, I feel like this is required reading for anyone who wasn't in it.

Damn shotty, you gotta stop entering diffusion of power games, bad things happen to you when you do. Sorry to hear that.
