Yeah, why just blindly listen to Tired, if you'd waited for a bit more debate or something I'd have recommended Nevergirls instead, for lurking AND showing up to say they just want to vote for some of the most active posters  (one of whom is the towniest town, even!)

I dunno. I’d feel a lot better if the person coming forward to say it was a town move wasn’t my top scum pick.

I mean, the scum motivation is to have a chance at picking off a town power role with no chance of them claiming (which happened). Sure, if you're town you have a chance at hitting scum, but the percentage of scum vs. town usually goes up over the first couple days what with night kills and the fact that D1/D2 lynches tend to be mislynches. Why would you shoot a "lurker" during the superbowl? Also, I think he should claim.

Ok, so I clearly caught up at an opportune time. I want to read something into that dayvig (VIG damnit!) but stupid d1 vigs are such a null tell. I wish they weren't but it's the nature of the beast. Give someone a dayvig and they will shoot town d1. (Favorite reasoning someone gave for doing so: "I single handedly cleared birdstrike as town!") I can see why people got suspicious of TQ, but am not interested in voting for them currently. I agree to a point with where bif is going on the Podima case.

Viging someone randomly D1 is dumb but no dumber than literally every other D1 vig to ever exist. Including the time I vigged Capps based on a dream I had.

I can just think of so so so many better ways to use a vig as Town or scum, but mainly if you were a scum vig wouldn’t you want to use it more tactically? Is it getting into wifom territory to think of excessively lovely dayvigs as Town cred tactic?

Playing FF7 For the first time chat: Playing this has made me begin to realise why people didn’t like FF8 that much. The setting is fantastic, there’s this great sense of fun and colour to everything BUT the stakes are so high from the get go. I’ve just got up to shinra dropping the plate on sector 7 and the whole time I’m like “yeah the heroes will stop it” but NOPE the whole town crushed, and an already lovely life in a lovely world just got shitter. Comparatively at this stage in FF8 I think I’m still wandering around quaint little towns doing nothing of real importance. The sense of anger and desperation from the main characters is palpable, and the fact every backdrop looks so trashed gives the whole game a really bleak but engaging feel. Loving it so far!

I'm inclined to go with it based on the defense though because Holy poo poo was that garbage

Asiina posted:Let he who hast never done an impulsive vig cast the first vote. Does an impulsive, day-ending forced lynch count? Because I've done that one. ##vote Pod. For real this time, not just to add a tide pod joke to his list of aliases. Definitely feeling better about Bif now that she's gotten going on her own and started examining posts for logical discrepancies, think Pod somehow coming out of things with a townread on TQ and a fairly weak strike on Gaspy for being suspicious of TQ to the point of nominal certainty is poor. Here's TQ's contributions, incompletely but accurately summarized: - jokevote on Bif - doubly joking vote on tobbs (felt to me, as I've said, like scum trying to blend in and overdoing it) - more jokes - another joke, post-a bit of suspicion (feels better, jokes seem less calculated if they're continuing after pressure is happening.) - yet another joke, this time kinda out of jokephase - This: "I'm gonna be honest, I haven't played FFVII (queue dogpile of votes), so yeah I haven't participated in the FFVII friend chat that has dominated the game so far. I also don't mind going out D1, but only because it would give Gaspy a nice big data point against his F O R E N S I C L I N G U I S T I C S nonsense." (Not a fan of him preemptively excusing non-participation in jokephase [since it stacks with my feeling that he was overly concerned about his appearance in the phase], not sure how I feel about the fatalist bit.) - A general "screw you" to KB but phrased a bit vaguely, a misrepresentation of Bif and Gaspy's thoughts on him as SUPER HARD CASING - Oh wait okay it's just phrasing differences, scratch that feeling on the last bit. - some fluffposts (I hope like hell y'all know what this means because I'm already refraining from referring to jokephase as RVS and don't want to have to change more of my mafia lexicon) - jokevote on YPM - complete lack of care at Gaspy going after him - has a Pod theory, isn't sharing it (why?) - "look at all the lurkers!", he cried - our dayvig is too dumb to be scum (uh...) I'm kinda back to suspicion about his jokephase activity, though that's not really a wall I'm comfortable leaning against, and certainly not enough to want him lynched. The bit with phrasing issues reads genuine, but I'm not a fan of him explicitly not stating a position on Pod or implicitly calling out lurkers this early. Would say I've got a scum lean on him, overall, though nothing approaching a major read. Anyway, back to Pod, who's suspicious of Gaspy for sounding certain about who he wants to lynch. That's... a real reach. Not even because I agree with Gaspy — I personally think that Gaspy is town, overreacting to someone being rude to his friend — but rather because the specific subject Pod is hitting on is the certainty part, not the poking at TQ, given Pod's read of "fine" on TQ. Jumping on his wording (certainty) rather than his content (his read on TQ) when you look set up to examine the latter is pretty dubious. That ties in with him saying he wants to reread, which...he has a handle on TQ, apparently (one that conflicts with mine), which should mean he has at least some handle on Gaspy's case (what little of it exists in wording rather than implication) on TQ, but Pod's only talking about the wording. TL;DR: I think Pod is poking at the wrong part of Gaspy's stuff to be consistent with what is implied by his reading TQ as fine. He's talking about TQ, and he's talking about how Gaspy's framing his case on TQ, but he isn't actually talking about the case itself...which is rather necessary to judge the framing and/or TQ. As such, Pod: Assuming for the moment that you really do need to reread, what do you actually think of Gaspy overall at this point? How about Bif? Other things: - tobbs doesn't seem like a jester, he seems like someone shitposting like someone who wants to look like a jester. It's weird and I can't get a read on it. He's gotten better though, the suspicion of Gaspy for waiting to drop a vote is a positive. - YPM's case is absurd and honestly believing that anyone considered the possibility of an n0 cop is paranoid beyond belief. Still, it's very much a normal YPM move to get absolutely fixated on one thing D1 and just hammer it into dust, so it's null until we learn anything about his targets. - Why am I cursed with D1 dayvigs? That shot was weird, stupid, and probably from town but...ongoing game, so I can't really contrast/compare it to Mr F's scum garbageposting power hour. - Still not happy with tithin going full metagame-y "your D1 lynch cases are all awful, always", espeically when he's also freaking out of a 4 vote jokewagon (and a 1 real vote appendix). What's the problem with votes?

As Gene said, can't talk about ongoing games etc... but I think this vig is not so terrible. Vigging the lurkiest player is alignment neutral, certainly more understandable than picking a totally random player who is actually contributing. Although CL was probably likely to pick up his game at some point so kind of rude.
