I'm town because I'm enjoying myself. I'm totally relaxed. Not playing any angles. Just having fun being weird and annoying and seeing how people react to that.

It's the one thing I can't fake.
I'm standing with my initial read there. Pzelda has a history of being kinda lackadasical on day one and getting caught woofin' before he settles in. The way his first post went by without stirring an immediate alarm sort of seems like town Pzelda. Not a "wait for LYLO and look again" read by any stretch but I think there are better places to go today.
Raskol needs to show up here.
Dolby is looking worse every time I look.
I'd run either of them out ahead of Pzelda.
How are you feeling about me now I've got serious, Tim?
Respectful?
I'm not gonna clear you for the long haul on being joyful and relaxed, but have no interest in killing you today...which given may penchant for widerangeing bloodthirstiness should be good enough. It's firmer than my early lean off your one joke post anyway.
Vro coming in swinging at whoever is handy is a stark contrast to the way El came in, as late arrivals go. Not gonna go spontaneous combustion about it, but noted.

In el we trust
If I was scum here, I wouldn't have spammed up the thread with my weaksauce flow-of-consciousness reads in the latter part of the day.
I'd either have gone strong earlier or tried to roll it out as a low-poster.
:whip:
It's interesting to me how you're classifying my push as "swinging at whoever is handy" since I don't see why you would reach that conclusion. Care to elaborate?
Sure. El and I are different people. Make of our differences what you will.
Are you debating to the thread or to me? If it's to the thread, fine, but I don't see why this would be a good defense to me since I've never played with you before, I have no basis to believe this. If they're really weaksauce reads to you, it feels more like you're just inflating your postcount by contributing for the sake of contributing.

1c-a. The player is not allowed to do a motion to the, uh, thread, that prohibits the thread from doing, you know, just trying to chop a wolf. You can't do that.

1c-b(1). Like, if you're about to and then don't pitch, you have to still pitch. You cannot not pitch. Does that make any sense?

I'm not debating anyone. I just tried to think of how I would have played this thread as scum.
On the inflating postcount thing, that's a solid suspicion. It's the kind of thing scum do. And you have no reason to think I wouldn't do likewise (except for my lampshading it).
I pointed out the issues I had, particularly with your unnecessary defense of Argon. If they aren't valid explain why not and I'll move along because I'm not screaming for your blood here...but don't just OMGUS like you have been towning it up and don't merit any consideration as a possible wolf.
At this point, Ras still voting me means either totally absent or totally guilty.
Well in order to save our eternal leader

Not a fan of GG from my reskim but can't really put it in words quickly.
Winston can be town.
Could switch to Panda.
Think that most of the points directed at Pzelda are more reflective of how he decides to engage than anything, which I've seen and pushed him on in the past.
I think that Csargo has been fine throughout the thread.
I like El's #267 a lot and want to say that he's town from that
;(
Yeah I really don't understand the votes on me, all three of them feel unprompted. Tims and El touched on me briefly. El didn't really make a conclusion on me excepting maybe he wanted to imply that he didn't like my take on Rask. Tims didn't like me townshielding Argon, don't care, HK was pushing a policy yeet one point and I don't think resistance to that was bad.
Why? I don't think Panda's scum atm.
I think it's more likely that a townie CP would make what he thinks is a contradictory post as a bait then a wolfy CP trying to invent that kind of excuse. If CP's vote bad? Yeah, I think so. I also don't think we should be landing on him today.
I didn't say "easy target," I said "whoever was handy." Arrive late, pick a fight with whoever is around, get credit for a lot of obvious activity without actually laying down much of anything in the way of reads or real content. El on the other hand came in and started immediately doing due diligence.
You've basically spent a third of the cycle legitimizing pressure against him
It ends here, but you still have him in your bottom tier for no reason than what amounts to "he does this every game and it's not productive"
My posts questioning the way you shielded Argon were hours before, and shielding Argon was IMO your most notable content at that point. If "feel unprompted is a ten dollar wrapper around a ten cent OMGUS cigar then I can consider it a peace offering and smoke it I guess, since you are here now and giving some additional content.
Was the Raskol vote just a self-pres thing?

Good morning all. I'm making my way back through the thread.
I'm just not taking it all on face value. You posted a comprehensive reads list way early and then say that you've never done that, but you have friends who believe in it and you're trying something new. Fine, but that doesn't make you more townie or not. You could be a cooperative townie or you could be playing at it. I'm not sure yet.
The worst thing about my wagon is that I'm kinda thinking it's 3/4 town rn
i just think it's Rask
I said I think he's lying, not "it's unproductive".
Something about Borg is giving me bad feels beyond the normal "this is LA doing LA things" I usually have when he posts.
I've also said, and you quoted, that I'd do the day murder to Rask/pzelda/panda, and that borg was "meh" and I'm "eh" about him.
You saying "HK is policy pushing Borg" feels wrong, because it is wrong, but it also feels wolfy to push that line of thinking.
I'm actually kinda concerned about LA voting Panda
I'm not seeing any reason it can't just be pure. You haven't really towned it up here. There were five wagons at two and if you aren't a wolf presumably at least one of the others is...I think wolves would have been trying to roll an easier counterwagon rather than going after you hard.
Oh, so you're saying I was picking a fight with Winston specifically since he was in the thread at the time of my post. No, I pushed him because he has what I believe to be the clearest wolfy behavior from his lackluster posts throughout the day, making reading his posts purposefully harder by putting one and another language and needlessly stringing out reads into multiple posts, his stilted interactions with another suspicious player, and his lackadaisical vote and unvote on Rask.
I have difficulty analyzing this early and I struggle to articulate my reads, but that doesn't mean I'm making things up based on nothing. El seems like a good player and I respect his effort and playstyle, I can't be El though.
oh no! I have been bitten by the multi-quote monster!
vote: Rask
All glory to the eternal leader.
Here for the last bit but I've still got catchup to do. Cliffs?
I'm not willing to vote Dolby, I'm not convinced on Rask, voting CP is just a bad idea in general.
Vote - Winston Hughes
I'm glad you've enjoyed yourself, I like you as a player. Unfortunately, you're a wolf, and I can't stand for that.
