his entire actions the entire game felt incredibly stinted in a way where it's like reading a particular someone(caffeineboost) on smogon. caffeineboost is a player who acts incredibly scummy as town and sorta towny as scum. pure awkwardness. gut pinged it as "really hard to be coached" here. anybody who votes zeep will feel the steel blade of my katana
Fair enough. Reread him and I can see what you mean about him being awkward. I agree that he definitely wasn't coached, but I don't think that makes him less likely to be scum. TBH reading stuff like this
did it say i was on? i just got the email
just slightly bothered by the wording of what he said, but the more i think on it the less i think its a slip
so ill probs unvote after i put some pressure on
Still annoys me because like...I can see the second line as coming from a townie, and the third line feels kind of self defeating for town to do.
I can get the reasoning behind the NNR vote now. Overall, I'd say like...I'm null on his slot ATM and am more confused where the strong "would not lynch" reads are coming from.
Sidenote: I just realized NNR and Niekstory were different users.
don't have an actual read on his slot atm. think he generally reads awkward and hyperactive but that's not alignment indicative. i'm not actually sure what you were getting at wrt the post you voted him for, unless it's just gut due to the way he phrased it.
It's gut because it doesn't read like a town mindset for someone to be like "if this town dies, maybe the entire town gets a powerup".
Really only like five or so people other than you at that point, but even then if you believe that your engagement with anybody's content other than zwerd was minimal!! So what gives!! Like when you disagreed with Refa, your response was just "nah" instead of pursuing any line of inquiry wrt Refa's vote.
If I entered a game thread with lots of players from different communities and nobody was saying they had any strong meta reads, I would simply conclude there were no strong meta reads yet. Really Nuxl reads like a fake ass fire trucker to me; I think there's more effort being put into feeling out the room and establishing himself right now than reading others, and establishing yourself earlygame I think is something scum with an active playstyle like to do. Town who want to establish themselves are more likely to do so through their productivity and not by talking about their "job in the game" in a game where half the players haven't posted more than jokevotes.
Refa, how passionate are you about your vote on zwerd (relative to earlygame)?
Personally I can't see myself wanting to lynch zwerd today ever but I did have the same initial reaction to his jokevote on you so I can almost understand where you're coming from.
Fake ass fire trucker?
I'm gonna be honest, at first I was like "I should reread Nuxl to see how legit this vote is" but then I was like "but also...I don't want to reread like 1/3 of the posts". I think my initial reaction was less that "this guy wants to seem town" and more "this guy is hyped about the game". I agree that he reads more as feeling out the room than as scumhunting, I just don't agree with the conclusion (if there was scumhunting to be done, I'd be inclined to agree with you but from his POV, there wasn't). This might just be a me thing, but I'm reading the excitement more as more likely to be town. Also I liked his replies to you TBH because it felt like he thought about those things and wasn't being disinterested in scumhunting.
It's the vote I felt the strongest about, but not something I'm confident in. Can you explain your thoughts on him since you mentioned you can't see yourself lynching him?
(I have another post incoming but I think it's more readable if I space them out)
