Klick, me and CSF town read each other and voted together a lot. I think klick also felt better about pooky than I did.

What a disgusting post
Seems to be a bit of an over reaction, no?

At any rate, these types of post usually come from town in my experience. Scum would be way more careful.

Of course, people won't look at certain other people because meta or some other BS until it gets to D4 or something and they start to open their eyes.

This meta circle jerk that goes on makes the game extremely difficult to play and difficult to insert myself into. I simply have to wait until meta players decide to reevaluate or even consider other viewpoints. It's usually too late by then though, it also gives scum players a great place to hide.
Don't get it, town are perfectly capable of eating themselves alive without scum input.
Yep, can definitely attest to that. See Schaad’s most recent pulpy potions game if anyone is doubting this for even a second. :lol:

But simultaneously saying you bet someone will flip town without attempting to a) try and stop it or b) redirect elsewhere is scummy as shit. It's basically a told you so in waiting in the case of Town!Math to look good.
Nah, I do this as town all the time. In fact, I did it this game with Cephrir.
Yeah, it’s much > than rand, that kind of post tends to come from town.

You don't need to be reactionary.

You lined yourself up well to join my wagon a few pages back.

Go for it.

malcom said something similar.
'

anyone have a read on malcolm?

In post 8840, BlueBloodedToffee wrote:Luke, the biggest problem with your VCA is context.

Sure, I was on the Ceph wagon for a while. But if you look at my ISO, you will see I simply wasn't around for large parts of the game. 400 posts at a time could happen between two of my posts.

I vote Ceph early, like 155 or something. I post again around 600 to say I will try to catch up and then during catch up, around post 1000 I start voting frog. So between my original vote in 155 and my change of vote literally 2 or 3 posts later we're at post 1000 or something (can't remember as I'm phone posting)

I feel you're missing a huge aspect of VCA.
There is a reason i did not vote with the VCA. I don't actually trust my ability to know what is important there. However, your point about moving from Ceph->Frog is kinda uncompelling since what I was looking at was the fact that ceph and frog were both wagons that existed simultaneous on flipped townies. I was listing everyone who was on either one, so going from one to the other is meaningless in that context I think?
In post 8842, BlueBloodedToffee wrote:
Do you find DPs or Enchants votes to be independently scummy
or is it just because you're using pre-flip associatives?
No. It was specifically an "If BBT flips scum" comment

It was based around the fact that they both stayed off the frog wagon for most of the time it existed, but then show up on the frog wagon in the very first vote count after your wagon formed. For it to mean anything, it presumes your scum flip, and if you are town it probably meaningless.
