also a thought process i agree with. i think im different in that im not sure if nucleuss belligerence is intentional or comes from years of not having played (and fwict having his first game in a while be a mafia roll?). i like to look at stuff like this within context. he is harming the town but i dont think people have really expressed to him what part of his act is actively harmful
I feel like it's eccentricity and ambition which is always going to be a blessing and a curse that's going to follow him into either alignment, but he's a lot more lucid and understandable roughly after I replaced in so I'm feeling better. The excessive gambiting and overextending just made his posts feel all over the place. He's probably going to read this so I guess to contextualise what feels bad I'll say that, to me, all of the posts before then just read like the mafia equivalent of "I made an AI sit through 300 hours of law commercials and made it write a law commercial for me." Which is uh, a lot of thoughts that feel loosely coherent but also not.
i mean i dont disagree but... hmm. im kind of seeing like. is beru the slot that i want to try and solve out first? berus not gonna try anyway afaict so wouldnt it just be easier to ask nucleus to nuke them or something? generates less complaints and still leaves the vote open
I don't disagree here either but I figure I can use my vote as extra pressure but it seems like he's not biting. Contextualised also with this post after yours
oh no it's more nuclear posts that I hate. I don't agree with replacements being v because where I come from replacements were lynched on sight because they were always scum. I've mellowed on it for a bit but if anyone is replacing out due to alignment it's probably scum tbh
Which shades my slot but I've heard neither hide nor hair of actual dialogue with or thoughts about me (or even my predecessor?). Like there's absolutely nothing getting accomplished here.
hmmm where do you get that impression from? i want to know. you asked for a dialogue and hence i shall give you one. tell me. i know you say "gut reads" but youll still have something to say besides that. everyone does.
I mean this was pre-replace in following along reads so admittedly I wasn't paying the most attention (which is why Raik's actual lack of doing anything slipped past my view, oops). I'm basing a lot of reads right now on who is actually trying to play and make things happen, which is also why I'm bothered by the extreme apathy a lot of users are presenting. In a lot of circumstances it is harder for scum to push cases on people who aren't scum so nobody having clear scumreads and a lot of people not doing much about it is really muddying my interpretations.
Basically I believe Dormio's intent and investment especially wrt making the case on you, it felt like it was coming from a place of someone who saw something sus and wanted to push it because of genuine belief that they'd found someone anti-town. Daiya as well is doing a fair bit to promote dialogue and shows conviction in their posts. They're not strong reads but I'm treating them with conviction so as to avoid the dreaded waffling.
id like you to differentiate the two for me
It's quite hard to at this moment, I could see both of them being scum honestly since they're both guilty of similar things. If i had to choose one over the other I'd rather lynch Raik because at least Serela is being more openly self aware at the lack of doing anything which can be read a bit more like "town who is struggling to get a foothold" but I'd rather they both go tbh.
