So while I think their meta based reason for "pressuring" you comes across as a tad obnoxious and irrelevant to this game, I could begin to see a pattern for the case you've raised against them Sand.

OVERALL, inconclusive and curious.

CLARIFICATION I think it comes across as irrelevant to this game, but not overtly a reason for them being scum, but I could begin to see a pattern for your case*

i was close to voting db but then realized i dont really have feelings about him myself and i'd just be going with the flow of thread. so i looked into why i was instinctively feeling like db was a safe vote to switch to and found amni's posts. they certainly arent doing a good job of casing db but what they *are* doing is plopping a vote down early on a safe candidate who several others have expressed they could be convinced to vote him too.

i do very much still think bif is scum, but pushing the conversation more right now would only be a distraction

Ok feeling more awake now, I don't think a Steak lunch is gonna happen today but I do keep coming back to that Obama post:

ObamaAkbar. posted:

Wow lot of posts to get through this morning!

My feelings so far, bif/steak slap fights feels like they are mostly talking past each other, although I thought it was pretty obvious that steak was joking with his earlier “serious” posting and I’m not sure why bif is if pretending that his quote of hummalong was him uncharacteristically going back to joking.

I could understand people skimming through and not really wanting to read the whole fight, but this paragraph seems like such a nonsense read of situation. I cannot see how any of it logically follows at all from anything we said or what the purpose is except to drop in this idea that I'm "pretending" about something and keep me in as the lowkey #3 on his to-lunch list

I’m watching for steak reactions and they aren’t jumping at me the way I thought they would as scum.
Hmmmm. Still not convinced tho.

DGK is pinging me, I thought it was an initial Sand bus but Sand just not playing along well enough for me to see him as being complicit.

Steak/DGK and Sci, maybe AA but I’m not quite sure. No clue of their meta, but I’m getting some scummy vibes from their recent reactions to light pressure with that small vote.

I’m skeptical of that being accurate since it’s so arbitrary but that’s exactly how you caught me before as scum, so maybe I should just listen to it I dunno. But Obama is acting similar to their last town game

I agree that OA's take on Steak's level of seriousness/intent earlier isn't great. Even I thought it possible Steak was being legit serious with their day opener.

First post after game start:

Mr. Steak posted:

smh why do scum always post super early on day 1? something about getting pinged in discord? idk its just a trend i've noticed. and this is a weird "pretending to be jokephase" post...

Third ":

Mr. Steak posted:

fyi last time i saw sandnavyguy use the "sand solidarity" thing on d1, he was an sk lol. so im wary of him bringing up the exact same thing

A few after third:

Mr. Steak posted:

im determined to kill jokephase before it begins. and any player desperate to cling to it for longer than 1 or 2 posts is scum

This doesn't read to me like Steak was being flippant and jokey, which makes OA's take look disingenuous and unnecessarily shady. Would vote OA today but I still like my current vote and probably won't budge unless we face a NL situation.

the thing is (and this has been my entire argument against bif):

after those posts at the start of the day, i went to sleep and thread proceeded to continue being joke-filled and here was no content. when i woke up i said gently caress it and made a bunch of jokes as well, as that was the tone of thread. but apparently bif had the opposite feeling because she was stuck in the previous irl day when i'd said i would kill jokephase. the entire night had passed and my tone obviously changed, if you look at the timestamps on my posts. hats why ive been saying bif's impression was disingenuous

And my point is it doesn't even loving matter how many posts of his were serious or which ones, I just wanted to bug Steak and vote him cause the VF joke made me annoyed, and used the "I thought you were killing jokephase" as a way to make it sting a bit more and see if he'd have an interesting reaction.

Which he did. And he's proven he understands the whole concept of trying to create content by pressing people to observe them. Yet he's trying to push this idea that my actions and mindset couldn't possibly be town, he can't even conceive of it, because if I'm town I shouldn't have seen X post as serious or Y post as joking, as if that is some kind of actual evidence and has any relevance at all to what I was actually doing.

Ugh yknow what I gotta still try, I know the urge to assume any drawn-out talking-past-each-other engagement is a townie slapfight is powerful but I don't think it's right.

Bifauxnen posted:

I had voted Steak while complaining about him making such an obnoxious VF-cluttering joke after promising such serious play, he asked what made me think things were serious, and I replied with "You". That was what got him to come screaming in all "this has got to be a fake opinion".

What is the opinion that he thinks is fake? That he had already noticably made a lot of serious posts and drew attention to it? That this made me think the game was getting serious now

so the opinion was fake, is what you're saying?

Guys I'm actually a 3P survivorish role and even though it is not in my best interest to overtly hunt scum and get NK'ed, actually it's in my best interests to get townies lunched, I figured I should just play like normal cause it's so hard for me not to and I often end up wrong anyway so hey it could work out.

So it is probably in your best interests to lunch me but I just want you all to know that Steak is still wrong and is dense as gently caress.
