    Going to work, ok. Not giving reads because behind 3 pages is meh.

    In Hackers you commented as you went afaict so this is a direct contradiction.

    Why on Earth would you let us lynch you/not contribute the thoughts you have as a Town PR?

    actually now that i think about it

    this isn't how sooh acted at all when things didn't go her way in heroes (as town)

    meh i hate how you popped in here and i don't know what to make of it wrt your alignment

    i'm not sure if i just dislike it because it's annoying or because it's wolfy

    in any case it's probably not worth lynching a potential PR d1

    It would be a list that includes (when taking reads into account) maybe six players, three of which have posted twice or less yikes

    I just… I dunno. Both Visor and Zack are giving off very similar vibes, both feel like they are playing the role of the pushy experienced one, and both of them are either uber town or uber wolf depending on which way my confirmation bias is heading while reading them. It just feels like both of them are doing Pizza-style wolfing, but the problem is that that school of wolfing is what town does. I just don't know, and feel like venting my frustration.

    Thoughts on rest of pg 5/10 for me

Do you get it now?
    Quote Originally Posted by atheotes View Post

    Understand both theses PoVs.

    Had the same reaction as atheotes initially, read Renata's response to me several times to see if it could come from Town and found I could accept it.

    Liked/mindmelded with lots of atheotes early thoughts so leaning him light gut Town for that until I look closer.

    Renata trended up for me in tone and responses/questioning widely etc. Gonna be a tricky one for me cos she spooked me early. Think we may have similar paranoia take on game in general.


    These two both stood out as kind of shallow justification and possible picking on easy fruit but ?just more direct playstyle?

    Mindmeld on the expressed thoughts to here and can ooook those he lists as possi-villagers but lolparanoia want to really catch up on them first.

    Lolparanoia included Dice doesn't Town read me early, and you questioned his early GH vote immediately prior to this, why's he Town?

    This is my thinking right now. it will change on further information and game state.
    Why do i feel this is a redundant question?

    This is just a continuation of your non-engagement with my posts. You do a good job here of making my point, so thank you. Since you no longer appear to have anything valid to say, and when you address my comments it's to belittle them and ignore the content (which you can't counter) I'm going to move on. Barring someone else doing something really strange, I'm pretty sure my vote will stay on you, and I'll be encouraging others to follow. Gday.

    Only on post 490 for the moment, but not sure i'll get through all of them tonight, so wanted to drop a line about Dp and Winston.

    I went back and refreshed myself on my last game with both of them. Dp, out of the box I have to apologize, I had you confused with Psilly, which is quite rude of me given how... off... that fellow is. I have to look back at things with a new perspective, but you're not the flaky, squirrel chasing guy I thought you were. That makes me feel a little less confident in my read. That shouldn't be read as I think you're scummy, just that I don't know if you're towny. I think that makes sense.

    On Winston, his play seems fairly consistent to what I saw in the last game. For context, I was scum and he was one of two villagers I chose to pick on throughout the game, so I had a lot of interaction with him. This gives him pretty solid town cred for me, based on d1 contributions.

    Going back to reading now.

    @Jabbz don't worry, what you saw was my mafia game. My games here as town have actually been very similar to how Psilly plays, so despite being mistaken you were 100% correct.

    Valid observation, and amusing the rest of us missed it. Perhaps our votes for rep goes through first, then their vote for lynch is tallied?

    Don't feel too comfortable wrt Mont, Renata, Winston. I'm considering all their posts and any arguments made toward them and a lynch that direction. Feel pretty good about Cass and dice.

    First, Cass is just solvey, engaging everyone, asking hard questions. I'm happy with her game play and her follow-through, she seems committed.

    I believe I've played with dice before on PerC and idk, I'm getting town vibes from over there this game. Tonally on point, if nothing else.

    Okay, few more pages to go. BBL.

    If you are so sure you are going to be lynched, then any reads you have are useful to town. While we won't trust your judgement necessarily, at least we can trust your perspective to be townish, and your words would be the only unimpeachable ones in game. Gives us what you can, and I will be grateful, even if no one else is (which I doubt would be the case).

    Yeah, sure Zack, I'm using your hounding of me to avoid putting out the town and scum reads I already have to date. I get I misread you dude, but you need to get over yourself when it comes to me, you're just being an ass, and I'm pretty sure it's not contributing anything useful. Cheers.
