I like Lars' and MacReady's intros, probably for bad reasons. And I think Copper's is slightly more likely to come from a Thing.

This? What sticks out to you as Thing-like?

Yeah, that. It's a vibe. The TBH seems self-conscious, the post itself is short and seems to be made for the sake of making it and fitting in, and the vote on a person that hasn't posted yet vibes like he doesn't want to start ruffling feathers yet.

1. I use TBHs a lot in my writing style.
2. I found myself to really relate to that post.
3. I voted that person because they were the first in the VC and I always do my RVS votes on arbitrary factors like that.

Abbreviations are something of a mild verbal (textual?) tic for me.

Defensive much?

I see. Something I've noticed recently is that people seem to find "tbh" as scummy, with one reason being that it comes off as soft and half-hearted agreement in order to avoid conflict. At least, that's one reason that's stuck out to me. It's interesting that you see Copper's post as a whole that way, rather than just the "tbh" part.

VOTE: Copper

I'll vote here with you for now.

Understandable, I suppose, I have tics of my own. What do you think of Palmer's vote and reason for voting you? Thoughts on mine are welcome as well.

lars can be town too i guess,

windows deserves to be voted for being a changeling afterall.

i dont think "TBH" is enough of a reason to satisfy me yet, seems nai... but nice try!

this is too wordy and redundant which is why its miles better.

Yeah, I thought that post would help transition out of RVS a bit.

Clark's 17 felt a bit off to me, but other than what I've already mentioned, I didn't get anything out of the posts prior to mine

I like Palmer

I thought the wordiness of that post made it Human-like, or at least NAI. The joking gave it a Human-like tone, but less so than Lars.

1) MacReady is the platonic ideal of a husband.

2) I dislike 28 because I don’t think it says much of anything for calling tbh “interesting”. I don’t get the sense Clark cared much for the question he asked.

VOTE: Clark

Ok. I think I have it. Here we go.


ahem.

VOTE: Clark

Dear god, is that^^ what happens when you get taken over by a Thing?

Assuming that that took some time Lars and I probably came to the same conclusion at the same time. Town for the day.

Journal Entry#1

November 3rd 2022: McMurdo Station, Antarctica

It was cold. So cold. so very cold. the kind of cold that comes in the night and creeps into your bones and leaves you shaking while wrapped in your blankets because the light of the world has faded.

It had begun. The last planeload of evacuees left in the morning leaving just thirteen souls behind.

The last survivors of the horror that had unfolded over the last week forcing the evacuation of the largest research station on the continent.

Some of us were already

dead

their bodies turned into meatsacks for monsters to hide in.

If I had my way we would all take a collective bath in a pool of kerosene and then light it up - end it all. Better to insure the safety of humanity than to die screaming in the dark but I was outvoted.

Now we had to play

the game

. Outwit the monsters within our ranks and kill them all with extreme prejudice. They could be any of us and become any of us.

Disgusting - the very thought made my skin crawl inside - the idea that

it

could eat me at night and walk around wearing my skin like a hideous caricature pretending to be me. slaughtering my friends in their sleep.

I wrote down a keycode in my journal:

Today I am human. My keycode today is itwapofmhaocotbtdwqdasdotnidttaasssttlhoimaaosac.

it stands for :

Inside the Waystone a pair of men huddled at one corner of the bar. They drank with quiet determination, avoiding serious discussions of troubling news. In doing this they added a small, sullen silence to the larger, hollow one. It made an alloy of sorts, a counterpoint.

A line from one of my favorite books on my bookshelf. I know those

things

cannot read - they know only how to destroy.

My keycode tomorrow will be: hsialsrbbeftcaglutrcbostfotsatdadayasacsfttgrtrtmfttsptbiwtlaitwdalutfctootfhtwb

if I cannot explain what it stands for, you will know I am no longer with you and you should incinerate me immediately with no mercy for I am now one of them.

I like Palmer for town - if Clark flips mafia I would think Garry, Lars and MacReady are town as well.

VOTE: Clark This is the fourth vote for Clark[E-3]

FMPOV that feels like an arbitrary choice. Please explain?

what do you want me to explain?

VOTE: Clark

I very explicitly did not "call tbh interesting" in that post, not sure how that was your takeaway when I talked about Palmer's case having a basis in the site meta.

The link between Clark town -> Garry mafia? I thought that would be apparent, sorry.
Is it just that everyone else engaging with that wagon is town or is there something else?

I don't think I've said anything about Clark town -> Garry Mafia

I said if Clark is Mafia then Garry is probably Town

Well from my POV the overexplanation on why 'tbh' was scummy felt somewhat odd coupled with the 'i'll vote here with you now', and like they mismatch a bit, as does the last paragraph, which is a little conciliatory towards Copper and wants a further explanation on the verbal tics

The former feels like he independantly somewhat thinks tbh is scummy, and the middle sort of implies that he's voting along with Palmer in sort of support and somewhat dilutes the initial reasoning, and the last paragraph does even more.

The whole of [post]28[post] doesn't really match in tone and purpose

Also, regardless of Clark's alignment, if there's scum on this current wagon I think it's Blair

And this is the part where I sigh. So you did and I have an inability to read things in the proper order.

MacReady can be town today.

Man this anon thing is great
