I won’t say the current one should be changed but typically VCs are only supposed to count to the post it’s in

@luke: i agree that meg's readslist is kinda. eh, bad. though i'm more interested in whether you have any opinion on meg's posting after 610?
oh man do i love reading multiple pages of sophie and star wars, really makes me want to try to meaningfully contribute to this game
@titus, why is vulture's vote there scummy?
@aristeia, why is alchemist scum?
and insert a complaint about how omega will probably get replaced

oh, something pings me as weird about lukewarm calling meg scummy earlier, but only voting them now. even though they made no new posts from back then to now. i dunno if it's related to the vulture rising wagon, it might be, who knows. moreso a note for me for later.
So let’s assume for a moment that I am scum doing this vote.
The motivation is that I am trying to get Flubber hammered early, yes? I want people to go for it, and barring anyone lolhammering for the sake of it I have to justify why to the audience of non-voters.
My very first post was attacking Flubber. This works with the above, making Flubber out to be bad.
My question then becomes: “When does Titus’s critical thinking kick in, reading what follows?” However, I actually think Titus didn’t use it and just went off vote counts because she thinks they’re a Bible that will gamesolve for her without effort.
If I am trying to sell Flubber as a good elim in this vote and I presumably have set up, even if it’s a small degree given early game, why do I not bring up my scumread on him until after I was asked and just go “meh, let’s see what happens?” in 154 when 158 is something I can post with the vote instead to make it look even marginally better? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Maybe there’s more to it in the Titus and Math back and forth that I have chosen not to read because it feels like it’s insular and beneficial to only them, but man, not like I have too much faith in any read that generates from there anyways.
Gamma, after voting with two people he has suspected/worried about:

In an effort to not be Toxic I probably shouldn’t engage in the manner anymore but Jesus Christ.

I mean, it partly is.
My top scum reads are chaos and meg, and I want to elim in those 2 personally.
I had a preference for chaos, but thought meg was also a good choice. that preference has gone away due to other slots interaction with the meg wagon
Am surprised and slightly suspicious of a random new counter wagon forming on vulture all at once.

Curious what the implications you are worried about here tho?
That I am scum with vulture, and that meg is town? Because in that case, I guess could have easily transitioned to the meg wagon earlier when titus urged me to.
Unless, I guess the scum team is excatly me+Vulture+Meg, and I think vulture is the stronger partner?

At this point, Meg has given a full read list, and thoughts on most of the slots, and most of the slots have interacted with the wagon. So she has associatives with most slots at this point imo

@luke, i'm not worried about anything specific. i just noticed that and thought it was weird, because you had been talking about thinking meg is scummy for a while, even talking about them becoming your preferred vote, but you didn't vote them. one hour after the vulture wagon starts growing, and wth no new posts from meg/omega, you're suddenly voting meg? it's odd timing. yeah, luke/vulture scumbuddies + town!meg is what i thought of as the most likely cause of the vote switch, but it's not something i can figure out right now. as i said, more of a reminder for myself for later days when some of you have flipped.

It's opportunistic. He has one or two posts before riding the Flubber wave. Once it gets going as a wagon, he puts E minus 1 super early. He has no realistic comment on anyone else.
The rest of his ISO is not much better. There's no comment on most of the game. There's no attempts to solve.
