@Jan its nothing mega deep, just these posts in particular pinged me
emphasizing the vote on you was a joke twice/clarifying his intent just pings me a bit
the post about insom pings me for the 'kinda sus early' 'but p6 insom hits diff' when early on was mostly intro posts and it feels like somewhat of an exaggeration for something i viewed as either null or just irrelevant from insom (but ender being around to clarify which posts early he sus'd would help tbf)
the post about newcomb is just super awkward. its mostly fluff about his willingness to vote newcomb as a wolf in a game from a year ago segueing into 'why are you reading him?' with clarification that he doesnt even have a read on newcomb
i cant really explain the read beyond that. i admit its kinda meh but i don't really have much else to work on rn. his other posts in the flurry were ~fine i agree but for my money he's the wolfiest of the interesting/non-cop-out yeets on the table we're likely heading to (sheep/knights) that i think have more villa equity
im heading in to work and am gonna be in a data center with no outbound internet access basically all day, not sure if ill be able to make EOD
will do my best to pop in on a break if possible and make a relevant vote as needed but gona stay on ender for now
id really prefer to not go sheep if that matters to anyone
not prickly just some friendly sass
i dont mind what u do wrt giving me space or not, its not going to affect how i post
feel free to ask me about a post or something specific and i'll probably humor you
but saying repeatedly that my posts dont match some imaginary gemma that you havbe in ur head and talking about a consensus or whatnot donest really give me anything to converse with, my reads are my reads and saying they're safe like ive intentioned out to commit sins is ??? and idek what consensus is aorn or what u think it is so like there are wild leagues between us that require unpoacking and deconstructing before we can begin to talk which is why im just shrugging
The amount of confusion Sunbae caused with the Stett ID lie is cracking me up.
Top quality content.
vote: enderwiggin
I like insom better now in his responses to gemma
Dya tackling Newcomb digging into their reasoning is ~more towny of em.
Disclaimer being that I have historically had a bad rate of reading Dya. But I like it.
I'm gonna ask you to cast your mind back to the last time you were town and I was wolf and I voted out Newcomb D1.
I give 0 shits about tiptoeing around good players.
(I once, famously, kept Pizza alive til F4 despite everyone townreading him. I lost that, but hell was it fun.)
This feels ~really bland of a read on me from Sunbae, and I can't help but feel like it comes from the fact that Ladd proved that wolves can push me for free because people don't generally find me super towny.
I'll chew on this a bit more before I commit to it. Because this is absolutely OMGUS range. But bleh.
Ok thx for the insight, seems like a potentially cool read.
Maybe i am a dummie but i dont like what gemma posted like couple of pages.
I still find the whole ordeal with vanta artificial and calling them newbtown after they made like 2 posts borders on leveraging tmi to get a result out of their vote
Most of their posts being answer to other people posting and latching onto that also seems a bit wolfy, idk i dont really see much in the way of original thoughts
I also have trouble following what the want to do like maple is (the only name) in their die section of their reads list but idt thry ever pushed them or talked about them and instead they went after insomnia for micro stuff (imo)
The older i get the more i hate pushing people (especially when i am not uber confident) lol but someome has to do the dirty work
Okay so... summary I understand is:
Sunbae sussed me for being "gunshy" effectively around "strong players". Of which I think half the player list for me could be assigned the same note.
Which is silly because the players who have a noted good record reading me in any manner aren't really in this game in the first place, and I've shown no signs of tiptoeing around the current players in previous wolf games. (As a whole I tend to consider my wolf game to be "refuge in audacity", though absolutely it has its holes.)
Benneh then "Yasss queeeeeen"s his way into a vote. Which is the second thing that twinges my omgus senses.
Dya's follow on and vote is actually probably very Villa of them. We have traditionally had some very contentious reading of each other. Dya can confirm I'm sure.
I'm not gonna lie kinda frustrated because I seem to end up on the table on D1 no matter what I try to change up if I don't have time to threadcamp, but nyeh.
Anyway, I'm gonna fish out the things I found sus that I wanna talk about outside me being a prickly bastard and disliking people sussing me.
This is probably somewhat confbias of me.
But the "Sus on Sheep" translating now to a "Sus on Ender, but idk why" is just a straight up omgus radar for the people championing his wagon. Except he doesn't say that. He vaguely gestures at the edge of the stage like an assistant will come in with a power point presentation anyyyyy minute now...
anyyyy
minuuuuute
nooooow
And I'm so self-centred I missed the Ladd part in the middle there as well lmao
Wisdom is probably the top of my "If pressed I'd lean them town but I'm leery of them pocketing me with how hard they're waving their hands and saying I'm town but not really doing much to try and dissuade the people pushing me."
Jan, at least, has actively tried to disagree with the wagon on me. Which does make me townread them more and I absolutely could be a sucker for it but I'm here and I'll stick it for now.
Also sheep is still town.
I debated it last night, slept on it, came back to thread and I just... think their early and mid game thought process reads true to me.
I'm pretty much not gonna accept a wagon on them until at least D3 and even then I'd do a reread first and might come back to defending em.
Sheep is pretty much the top of my town list rn.
I've probably missed a bunch of people to make reads on. I'm gonna go skim and live for a little bit. Feel free to ask questions oh ye denizens of the thread.
