    I guess the first 72 hours are going to be boring until we keep repeating ourselves about how we're going to lynch Logic, I don't think I've ever seen such a consensus Day 1.

    Bart's entrance was sloppy, but I don't think as sloppy as Rein's.

    Otherwise I caught up and most of it was Pizza's spam posts, the only other thing is I think I put Slaan solidly at the top of my Town pile. Zack hasn't looked as strong during this catchup, but a part of that may be him just being frustrated and bickering with Pizza and Bart. His assessment of Bart's meta is interesting.


    I will address the CSargo thing, I wasn't using his last game as a baseline for his read, I was referring specifically to how he defended himself. His responses to pressure have literally been "cool" or a version of "you got me". In that game whenever it came up Csargo is scum he was more playful and snarky. I'm not talking about his activity, or content outside of his reaction to pressure, which I think it's fair to think for it to be consistent no matter the situation. Still in the end I said I didn't think it was a fair baseline for comparison anyway, so DON'T LECTURE ME.

    I've been busier and don't actually want to keep up that rate of activity

    I did that in the one game with mtgs on MU that was 72/24. It was exhausting and miserable. Can't go hard in the paint 72 hours straight, it's not healthy for me.

    and fwiw Pizza is probably just town

    I had a theory earlier, but I think by this point it's clear it's just a theory and not actually applicable

    I was more talking about your seeming annoyed by Bart and Pizza which did mess with the flow and content you had earlier. I'm not demanding any type of activity, I don't think I've posted 10 times. Still high up in my town, was just explaining why I'd put Slaan ahead of you now in his own tier.

    So I ISO'd Logic once more to reconsider my case on him... I noticed how pizza basically immediatly went after him and tunneled him ever since, starting Post 169 where he calls his opener sloppy althought he just posted about games during rvs which I don't think is AI since we the topic when he came into the thread were video games.

    But then there is his townread on me which is just weird as fuck... I mean I was just shitposting around and I can do that regardless of alignment (check the Orchestrated Chaos game where I also just randomly posted at SoD1)... I mean who can't just post small talk as either alignment. He then gives the reason that he thought I just tipped my foot in the water of new peeps here but how is that ever AI from anyone? There went 0 thought into his townread on me and there is no reason for a towny to do so.

    So yea, I'm fine with a Logic lynch today.. in fact let me help

    Vote: Logic

    Also I'm gonna put Monty back in my null pile after his last couple of posts, they seemed pretty good

    Member thankful for this post:

    Not required, and actually breaks the automated vote count script that someone made.

    Finished the iso of Logic in XCOM. I know I'm right on this. 70+ posts and 28 pages say the same thing on every page, starkly.

    I challenge you to find literally any town game of his where he shaded someone even close to that way.

    I don't think it's happened anytime in the past five years at least. This is not a one game meta read, it's not in his town playbook at all.

    He's got his ways, I don't think he changed them for this game without an alignment change too.

    Well, OK, but you made a meta-meta point on how to correctly interpret within-game and across-career and as someone with a lot of experience with Logic you haven't really explained his scum meta, just how his behavior here is inconsistent with his town meta.

    He literally quoted my post and said weak. How should I have responded to that?

    Lol I already retracted the assessment because I looked at the play and felt it wasn't applicable and wasn't using it as a basis to read you. I literally said what I thought in the moment and then researched. I got lectured twice on the statement even though I came to the same conclusion that people were lecturing me on.

    I thought Reinoe's entrance was fine. Why didn't you like it?

    Maybe it wasn't his entrance, but it's the first time I noticed him, so I misspoke. My issue was his first content post, and then further his DP post.

    His Logic scum read and somewhat associative read with Zack but pushing Zack before Logic.

    He said independently that he has a scum read on Zack, buuuuut, the read he gave was inaccurate, he accused him of OMGUS when Zack did as much picking at people town reading him as he dis people scum reading him. That and his DP post felt forced AF, and overly long, when he didn't mention him before.

    I can be talked down from a ledge on him, I just don't really have a stronger inclination to go to at this moment. The Logic thing was bothering me because it felt like an overwhelming damnation of the poor guy.
