Looks a bit like anchoring here. Noted for a later date.

What do you mean by anchoring?

Scum sometimes do posts like yours above to be like, "Hey I'm here and still involved but I gotta go sry." Town can still do it, but can be a red flag for finding scum.

Regarding the name itself, I'm not actually sure why it's called anchoring.

Oh, ask anyone who sees me often and they can confirm I'm transparent about rl impacts.

I probably have more game content than any two players excluding Nero, and the rest of that list is all shitty lynches. Especially the dead guy.

show me where I said I wanted to lynch them

to pine

in that context that "list" was posted

We had momentum earlier
Idk about rn but that’s a point in favor or that possibility

Is that scum indicative? Quite possibly. I don't know past that. I need to go to work but I'll look at them more when I get back.

What gives you this feeling
My first instinct says your impression is wrong

I'll just save you some time and histrionics actually

Pine hadn't been around so I said "ayo Pino you got a dayvig" to which he responded "no who should I vig" and I posted the list of people who have clogged the thread with needless self-centred bullshit. you saw your name on a list, panicked, and pretended that it was a serious request to lynch you.

moving on. I got scummy vibes from the post Titus made from that alt account. I felt it was unnecessarily hedge-y in a way that scum usually does when they feel like they need to fake content but don't have real reads. that's my reason for voting it and I haven't seen anything that makes me want to move.

meaning what? what exactly is the point of disagreeing with someone's impression of me. like, you're arguing with something that's pretty objectively just what she thinks when she reads my posts. it's pointless argumentation that does nothing to advance the game. it's just another fucking post we all have to read and say "ah yeah, that just someone typing to see their avatar next to some words"

ahh shit I started an argument with a tedious person abort abort

like I guess that's kind of my point here about being upset about the gigantic post count for this game. you keep doing you and I'll keep being annoyed about it I guess

me

anyone except:
Pine

TSE

Miss L

Ceph
Creature
KidAmn
InsideJob711

but mostly me
or Nero Cain
Titus is a decent dayvig but not the greatest
you could also dayvig me

Why do you have yourself as a dayvig option

I don't really want to do a vanity vote here, but all of TSE, Vork and Virgo/Titus seem like pretty dumb lynches to me.

VOTE: Gamma Emerald

Still scumming about.

Boy, almost came close to asserting something there.

Essentially I was indicating I felt the same way Titus does, where your general personality seems to be what was described. But it was also possible she (idk what pronoun to use for Miss Lynch tbh) was focusing on something that was not the standard and if she was then I would have liked to see what it was and form my own opinion of it
Because I wouldn’t use the exact words she used but your personality falls close to what was said imo

So is that a no on takers for a UT lynch then?

Lacking other information, I agree w/r/t Titus. It seems over-explainy. Disagree w/r/t JBingle, he's the only one on that list I don't skip or skim.

I lied. Dayvig is real.



YEET

PE: Nah fuck off. He's being actually helpful, that smells like Town!UT

Kinda wish I'd used my vig on Menalque

edit: plz keep pushing it it's worked super well for the past 200 or so pages when the other people I've called out on their bullshit have tried it

For the sake of trying to get 19 on a wagon, it'd be better if you picked one of the 3 leading wagons rn.

I'd be happy to look at UT or Wooper tomorrow.

I mean (1) we may not need 19 on a wagon and (2) the whole reason I’m trying to shop around is because I personally am not super keen on the idea of lynching town today

Can you walk me through why Vork is town? I think you mentioned it a while ago, but can I get a tldr?

What are your thoughts on Amrun's list of ppl who can harm town?

Vork is D1 town for the way he approached the gov shot. Could maybe be cult in the same way you could be, but not interested in lynching there for the same reason I’m not interested in lynching you

Re: amrun’s list I would (1) need to feel confident amrun is town (spoiler: I don’t) and (2) with this tying in, I don’t really believe in that ability giving scum, as opposed to 3rd party/cult/vig results and I’m not willing to limit myself to using it as a lynch pool for exactly those reasons

In post 5742, Pine wrote:Kinda wish I'd used my vig on Menalque

Big oof for you then

Also, three more things:

1) I am ending my V/LA early. I'm still a bit sore and achey, and I fatigue quickly, but they've given me three 1000mg shots of rocephin since Monday on top of 1500 mg of Keflex/day for ten days, so I feel like I could take on smallpox and win right now
2) I am actually keeping up with the game since I jumped in here! Hooray! Don't bother telling me stuff I should know unless your name is JBingle, Untrod Tripod, or you swear to Odin not to put any damn spin on it
3) I am roleplaying my character. Fun times ahead!

Boy, almost came close to asserting something there.

“Almost came close to asserting something” are you blind to the fact I have been voting TSE for a non-policy reason that I’ve had since D1? Or that I took a stance on Vork vs Drew D1? Or that I had a distinct idea of what I felt about the three people who made solid effort to get the Governor? I think it’s a straight up misdirect to say I’ve been “not asserting” this game.
