Mini 2284: The Thing Anonymous [Day 2]

[Palmer~]

Windows, do you have any thoughts on Lars?

[Copper~]

How are Garry's and Norris' tones different than Windows'?

Windows' posts, while fewer, have a more solvy vibe if that makes sense.

[Copper~]

I’m having issues processing this game because of the familiar profile pictures and my inability to distinguish men.

Oh good, I'm not the only person having this issue.

Me too but it's less that I can't distinguish men and more that I can't quite distinguish real people when normally there are more colorful things in their places.

[Copper~]

I was of the impression you were posting your code plan as a serious suggestion and the way you went about it plus the fact you did at all both didn't feel to me like something a townie was likely to do.

I disagree with this, why exactly doesn't a code plan seem like a townie thing to do?

[Nauls~]

Page 4 I want to town Child but I'm not there yet. Frank is still town. 96/99 could have been bennings looking for an excuse to vote, has me scum swayed on the slot.

Also could we please not use nicknames? It’s already hard enough to know who’s who.
Windows and Macready’s pfps in particular keep confusing me

[Copper~]

On Copper:

This seems a straight up contradiction?

Elaborate.

Gut and sheeping Lars.

Also this kind of trolling is really scummy imo.

Is it just gut and sheeping? or is Norris being really scummy?

I had not quite finished my backread when responding to Bennings, Norris started getting really trolly on page 8 which I didn't read during the "sheeping" comment, the "trolling" comment came after I read everything.

I should probably do wallposts instead of thoughtstream spam and edit them as my outlook changes during my backreads.

[Norris~]

HAHA FUCK YOU LARS JUSTICE PREVAILS

[Palmer~]

How are Garry's and Norris' tones different than Windows'?

Windows' posts, while fewer, have a more solvy vibe if that makes sense.

Kind of, I thought Garry was pretty solvy. Do you think he's faking it? Why, if so?

[Lars~]

Honestly I’m not the biggest fan of the votes that have piled onto Norris, but Norris also hasn’t given me any reason to feel any better about them than before.
I don’t think trying to tonally read someone who’s “trolling” is very productive or reliable, so the fact that this is what’s being clung onto is pretty meh. There’s better things to look at (109, hell even 30) are much better to look at than Norris going “heehee I’m trolling”, especially since that sort of behaviour tends to be more player dependant than actually AI

this was exactly my point though. the trolling was a distraction, and it worked. I don't think they're scum because of it, in isolation I slightly lean town on that interaction, but I think it's an approach that scum could easily take and is very likely to be successful.

the main reason I think they're scum is still because of the original reasons that I voted them. I still don't think there's a understandable town thought process behind their earlier posts.

this is also why cooper's vote gave me some hesitation. I didn't like that he sheeped my confidence on a point that was less convincing, imo, than the earlier reasons.

[Lars~]

And following up on that,

On Copper:

I think if this explanation is true, it makes the vote a little less suspicious. I don't know if it is, though

[Norris~]

whys it so bad if im doing it purposefully? is there no reason a town could want to do it purposefully as well?
Do I need to share everything with the world or do you just want to be stubborn nitpicky bitch?

i dont know if i think your scum or just idiotic yet, but still fuck off.

[Lars~]

I'm somewhere around here:

Nauls
Garry
Blair

Fuchs
Bennings
Windows

MacReady
Childs
Clark

Palmer
Copper
Norris

I don't think I've talked about Palmer much but he's just seemed consistently a little off to me. Feels like he's been trying to pocket Nauls, and the way he followed on Windows in 249 felt slimy to me.

[Lars~]

I just said that it's not a contributing reason for why I think you're scum. so yes, there are possible reasons you could do it as town. there are also possible reasons you could do it as scum.

if you don't want to talk about the point you don't have to, I would much rather you find other things to talk about because I think that will be more useful to everyone than continuing this

[Norris~]

I literally said ill happily talk about anything else but yall passed up that opportunity and continued pushing this bullshit point. Not my fault.

[Childs~]

VOTE: Norris

[Childs~]

I can see "Norris" dying and replacing someone in the roster as his strategy for this behavior, I didn't vote him right after that act because wey had'nt heard from Clark

[Norris~]

[Norris~]

why didnt i just... try harder to appear town so I wouldnt have to changeling?

[Childs~]

because you are too bad to do that. prove me wrong

[Windows~]

On the flip side if he's town he's a pretty easy target for scum to assimilate. Alternate between snarky posts and copying other people's posts and no one would know the difference.

Don't forget the LaLaLa posts

I mean if trolling is a free pass to being townread as some people seem to be implying why don't we all just troll and random lim people everday?

[Windows~]

Windows, do you have any thoughts on Lars?

I gave him a free pass for a bit because I enjoy playing with funny people and his entrance was quality:

I haven't seen it either. I heard it's based on the hit game Among Us.

VOTE: Windows

Also since then he seems to read me as town so clearly he is town himself.

(For clarity, that's not a reason I read him as town, but nor do I think he's going out of his way to try to pocket me.)

I read him as town for posts like
post 169 and post 196 which both seem like genuine attempts to solve.

And while I disagree with his view of Norris's behaviour in
post 258 I do feel like Lars believes what he's saying here.

199 is the only post that seems like it could be made from informed minority perspective:

I do agree with that. I think if Norris is town then that vote looks pretty bad. I'm giving it a pass for now because I don't think Norris is town.

But that single post doesn't outweigh the other posts mentioned, so I lean town on Lars.

[Blair~]

I was too drunk last night to post and tonight looks like another bender so I'll probably show up at some point on Saturday to actually read this game.

[Blair~]

I've finished reading but mostly just skim read the last few pages coz I got bored
VOTE: Copper

can you explain this vote?

[Clark~]

Also since then he seems to read me as town so clearly he is town himself.

(For clarity, that's not a reason I read him as town, but nor do I think he's going out of his way to try to pocket me.)

Why did you feel the need to strikethrough and clarify?
