ꜱʜʀɪᴍᴘ?

MMM Whatchya Say posted:

FV, following up on a turbo with a jokey vote on derp but it's a bit self conscious. She makes sure not to put the vote on me, which might make her appear to be a part of turbo, but I was not in any risk at that moment. Her vote on derp doesn't really make much sense even as a joke. Is she voting for him because he said 3rd scum vote or to win my favour? Who knows. Finally any kind of buddying up makes me suspicious even at this point in the game.

Similarly Ecco's votes are a bit silly. They start the old rolling start turbo something that can easily be a joke or become real without much repercussions. After the turbo gets no more than 3 votes, they quietly shift off to somebody else. I can't remember who because I'm phone posting so I'll follow up on this in a sec.

i like your premise but in rereading i don't think there's text to support it.

Well like, being real here for a moment, neither of us had real cases. Mine was over analysis in an attempt to get the game going, yours was overreacting for the same cause. That you immediately dismissed mine to focus on yours was a bit irritating to me. I didn't really want to shut your vote down because I felt the goal of it was the same as mine, so I was left without much to say.

I just don't see FV as self-conscious at all, whereas I do see that in derp's *wink wink thirdvote* post. I'm willing to have a conversation about that if you have more to say.

I saw the self consciousness more in the mechanical placement of the vote rather than the words said.
