Wow, fail didnt see this post in my rush to post lol

I think this is slightly town indicative from 72offsuit - generally I think scum are more likely to read every post first before deciding what to do, whereas townies are more likely to immediately start posting before reading everything

A bit more seriously is that Doobie straight up admitted this was her first game ever, and that's pretty cool. Dunno 'bout the rest of ya, but I'm not gonna vote for her during D1 unless she does something super scummy at any point. Just so she can actually play the game a bit, y'know?

I have mixed feelings about this one - it feels like Lotus is trying to buddy the thread a little bit, playing a little too nice. Do you think Doobie is town?

Unlike Ico, I don't think this is worth a serious vote on its own- especially at the start of D1 - but it is definitely something that I hope doesn't get forgotten as the day progresses.

I disagree with this, I think the start of D1 is the best time to vote people for relatively light accusations. A vote right now doesn't necessarily mean you want to see that player dead, it is more a vehicle to create pressure and force the entire game to react to your vote. We learn a lot more when we create wagons than we do when we simply "note" things.

Agree. I get a bad vibe from the post. It sounds to me more like Information Instead of Analysis. Like you say, its a just a generic state of play rehash without actually bringing town closer to deciding a lynch.

Worst yet, Atarashi doubles down that they haven't made a conclusion yet. As if its some golden nugget that will reap some mysterious rewards later.

Do you have any thoughts about all of Atarashi's subsequent posts? I agree the original post lacks intent (as discussed), but I don't really scumread any of their questions/explanations afterwards.

Couldn't the "yet" also indicate that even though Atarashi doesn't know what to conclude right now, they did genuinely think it was worth posting?

By the way, is this post too long? I tried to shorten it, but, I'm a wordy person. Always open to feedback.

I don't think your post was too long, but it is always worth thinking about whether you can make your posts more concise in case they start getting longer! In my experience people generally respond more to shorter posts, separated out by line of conversation or topic.

Honestly I'm not getting a ton of scumvibes from anything major so far, I thought the push on Atarashi was overall worth probing but I don't think Atarashi comes off as scummy in the follow up. 72offsuit came to the wagon a little late and I'm curious to hear their answer to my question but I also don't think they're particularly scummy either.

their RVS comment about me feels awkward considering they voted elsewhere, and it's not clear from 55 whether they're read the thread or not. I think townies are slightly more likely to say whether they have or haven't read anything.

Namely, thanks to 7/2's initial jokevote, Ico's pushed me to -2. Luckily any even halfway competent scum would not pounce on that at the start of D1, so like I don't feel threatened by it at all.

You sound a little threatened by it, lol

I have some other thoughts but I'll let Ico respond first
