I seriously don't believe that Kash would make a mechanic that is useless if you don't get any votes at all. That's incredibly unreasonable, especially in a game this size.

##vote Flamander

At this point, I'm not even sure if I believe your flavor.

hey, this is a post that uses a completely false narrative as justification for a vote on a candidate gaining steam

thanks

i prefer ##vote 🍄 to flam right now, the flavor at least jibes with the claim, kash's roles for these choose your own cartridge games have been pretty wild historically, and i've explained why i don't like pmush's posting earlier

Yeah I'm not seeing anything that's making me want to move off Flam? It doesn't matter what his role is, we're in a role madness CYOR, everyone can make up something ridiculous and everyone'll go "yeah that sounds plausible." Anyone using this as a reason to unvote is kinda missing the point or maybe willfully misrepresenting as an easy way to fake content!

He freaked out with no pressure on a role he should have known was probably going to be not fully actionable D1 since votes are flying all over the place. Then he subsequently said "I knew this was a big game so ____________" to defend an action. Those two pieces of understanding do not jive together, which is, like, textbook scum backtracking after a bad move.

What is the reason Flamander isn't scum based on his ACTIONS, not his claim? The claim is irrelevant.

Scum flailing? Maybe his actual power involves being hated or something so he's more worried about votes then usual? Who knows. Doesn't really make sense. Similarly, I still think his read on PMush's post for his vote wasn't a real thing, even if I'm the only one that sees that.

BTW, on the lurker conversations, I'm obviously always down for a lurker/content lurker cuddle. But the game rules allow us to ignore the people below 10 posts(I assume this is since game started, and not counting pregame posts). Like, theoretically these people can still get above the line, but these are the ones I can see that have posted less than 10 times since game started:

Yorkshire Tea 12
b-minus1 10
Xad 10
Infinitum 2

So no reason to pursue them as lurkers unless they get above that line. And yeah, sure, the person who gets the gun to kill these folks could choose not to shoot them, but then that gives us more information so it still works out. Or if these folks end up making just enough posts to stay above the line before deadline, then that deserves its own level of scrutiny.

Yeah, and that's the thing, WHY he freaked out is all WIFOM and that's an impossible question to answer. I don't even know why Hal is asking that, he should know better.

What IS clear is he used one argument to support his freakout, and then contradicted it when it was convenient. That reads as scum backtracking. I've said this a bunch of times I don't know why I am repeating myself.

Yeah I know I am a loser, I don't really have any great scum reads. I genuinely don't feel like Flam was scum suddenly flailing but I will look at what you said about the P-Mush case.

Give me a little bit to get into things and I will have some reads I am sure.
