The assassin avatar was also monochromatic. Somehow the posts were quite poly-chromatic.

Did you ever watch that video I posted. That song really does fit you to a T this game if you’re town.

didn't assume it was meant to be actual commentary

I don't expect Assassin in this game after Tammy's comment. I did expect someone more lively.
To be fair, I have liked some of your posts between Gamma's entrance and this Bell vote.

Anyway, no that was actual commentary. I really like LCD sound system which is the name of the band that guy in your avatar leads.

oh yeah, there's like a 2 minute delay before the lyrics. that's part of the joke, but attention spans, I forgot.

Yeah. I felt like you made a serious reach-out earlier and then you decided the implied level of cooperation and info exchange wasn't possible for some reason. It feels like you're having trouble finding a comfortable approach in this game. Which does harken back a little to GiF's ancient Touhou game. What was missing there was the the sharp observations, not the relatable, huggable hobbes.
The what's present/what's missing is inverted here. And the missing part would stand scum-Bell in good stead. You could be more incisive, but you're not making much effort at being relatable.

game is very uneven with a lot of noise and i'm waiting to form opinions on certain people. a younger me would probably still be tunneling gamma but i think i've gone soft

No, I'm here and town. I didn't think the town block frisbee throw was serious but more of an attempt to see how people might react to it. Some players might be drawn to it. Scum might slap it down if they're insecure. Though it doesn't look like anyone other than me really even attempted to engage, perhaps due to it being too early. I didn't want to artificially engage with you earlier because I didn't want to force myself to town read you, or perhaps better said I didn't want to speak with you in a mindset where I was less confident that you were town, while pretending I was.
I'm always huggable.

My experience with peta is seven years old, and I've never seen a scum game though I believe I remember hearing that he has a good one.
In my head, he's an easy going poster who is active but not terribly wordy and pokes around at things until he finds something that bites. But when he does can be quite insightful and has good reads, which you saw with assassin. The play might change so the meta of the play won't be the same, but I expect the insight and the way he comes to his reads probably isn't all that different, and that will come when reads form. If that makes sense.
This morning I went back and looked at his iso is Abarat and The Wire just to see if my activity memory was right, and he was little more active there (I think it was me just glancing at the iso so take that observation with a grain of salt; it was not in depth by any means) and he had a little bit more bite (in Abarat at least but that game started off weird). I wouldn't really expect the bite to be there really and old meta is old meta. I was mostly just making sure I wasn't remembering a very different play.
I kinda put peta's style in a similar vein as visorslash, I don't know if you've ever seen him play or not, but the style has some similarities I think.
Don't know if any of that helps.

I can't do it
UNVOTE:
I can't not give Bell time and pizza if we're already giving other people I don't love as much time and pizza
Ffery if we had scum!Bell and I let you talk me out of it I'm never letting you hear the end of it
Now i need a new target. Hm. Back later.

I'm not familiar with vosorslash. Thanks for the rundown, though!
You spectated FGO. How do you feel about the split regarding Bell's play here vs there? I know playing a game is very different from watching one unfold, but still. Would like your thoughts.

People have unrealistic expectations of you, you're making a joke out of it. If you're town, you're not going to be a hit because it was day 2 when you hit your stride as a confirmed IC.
Clear enough?

I personally am sad and upset that you didn't get it and think you may be scum regardless of your role pm.
I was being brilliant and my brilliance was lost.

I haven't townbinned Bell. I'm leaning a little in that direction, partly because I don't expect Avenger any more than I expect Assassin, and because I liked that he entertained the idea of working with me, and I liked that (it appeared) he put his guard up a little about my (actually Cabd's!) scumgame when I told the tale of the evil neighborhood.
My play's pretty different here, too. The amount of spine I'm feeling while playing on my main is promising! I hope it lasts.

Maybe we actually can town block this game FF.
@Syrana: Aw thanks. I'm a little less likable and focused because the game set up isn't the same. It's just different sides of my town coin.

The only thing I remember about bell in that game is him really wanting the master, and my spectating of that game was really uneven, and I was spoiled.
I haven't really been paying attention to bell this game yet. When midway bear made the post about wanting to be top poster, I checked activity and bell has more posts than I do which surprised me because I don't really remember bell posting that much. I know there's concern on bell from you guys who played the game especially those of you from Fate.
I need to go back and read from the beginning and pick up all those little pieces I didn't pay much attention to yet. Hopefully that will be later today if I can get this last lecture information and assignments posted.

You are severely mistaken as to the deepest meaning of pizza, and I don't intend to dish out any more clarity.

Corral #1. Speak to me about why you're going with your gut and not meta?
Pizza is a pie
