VOTE: NMSA
seems constructive

I plead the fifth.

Hi anyways

I plead the fifth.

Hi anyways

=) Hi, how are you?

The winter is almost over, so getting better.

[tictac]

It's not cool to vote my townreads on bad reasoning!

pretty sure ya were voting a town read at this time
Am I correct?

[tictac]

Can I suggest NMSA for that wagon? I expect you'll find that more productive, anyhow.

I've been reading through and honestly this is different from the other games I've played with you so since noone else has done much AI, VOTE: urap2

feeling good about my vote

I like this

i mean i read it again and i can see the narrative that you're pushing (ie that he wanted to form wagons and when you weren't interested in reck he switched to pushing who you were pushing) but i don't feel like it explains everything, namely his random read change on reck

What was random about it?

[tictac]

Boy, I have a lot of good points

I like this.

I'm just going to post once here just so people are aware that I am now here.

Now I'm off to go read the thread.

So what makes this alt better for this game?

[tictac]

the fact that reck didn't post anything in between so i don't know why he suddenly changed his mind from 'reck has no ai content' to 'nm reck's changing vote like that is townie'

I thought it was a change from casual read into looking at things more closely when prompted.
Gave him a townpoint for it.

[tictac]

I'm adding a possible situation 3.5 for reck:

Pushing me cuz NMSA is his buddy

Are ya retracting the point about the vote change being towny now?

[tictac]

Because both read pretty townie to me.

Why does Skitter read townie?
She's on my 'not on day 1' list for activity and rep, but hasn't really pinged me as town.

kinda hard to explain but tictac's felt more bandwagon-y? like the wagon was there so they decided to join it? like they wanted to make sure they got on the wagon? it's their first post and that's all they have to say about the game is that the wagon is constructive - like their first post being all about that makes it feel like that was the most important part of the game to them, like it was important to get on that wagon?

More like I wanted there to be a wagon.
urap2 was calling for a wagon while under minor pressure, so I wanted to see if he'd do something with the wagon if he got his wish or if he was merely deflecting pressure.

Didn't expect to develop an actual scumread there, and it's kinda inconvenient, because single-wagon static gamestate doesn't help me in developing reads on more inactive players.

I'm not too concerned with the speed of the wagon, but the lack of a viable counter is concerning. I think the ate from spam might mean he's not a resigned-to-his-fate-scum, so I'd expect some attempt at a counterwagon. Then again they might be going for the 'wait it out' strat?

I agree with taking this kinda slow. At minimum I want to hear more from Angel, Nimueh, Chara and Branson, before lynching.
Reck should also say something that isn't about Enter.

[tictac]

prodge.
I'll have time later today.
