I'm circling you for the hammer vote thx, the white noise just got me looking that way

i wonder, out in thread, if sandwolf and toalpaz are doing the 'scum out in the open' gambit, with a side of bus driver misdirect.

i've always wanted to do that bit.

I can always tell when you're scum Beet, cause you misrepresent what I'm saying even on the most basic levels.

It used to piss me off something fierce too, but I'd like to think we can have more fun with it these days

Yeah. And that wasn't enough to be worth voting you. So that's not why I'm voting you now.

I was thinking it was a pretty good D1 sentiment, actually (that I wasn't sure I bought Tommu riding along with). Historically in Auspol we'd often try and attempt this sort of gentleman's agreement to not have all the active posters devour each other immediately. But his white noise spam posting had been pinging me earlier.

Btw Sandwolf actually is an honourary Aussie! Although I don't think he posts on the server much

laying ground work

RF looked plenty scummy and with things going along that fast, there must have been a good number of enthusiastic townies genuinely piling on and not just scum pushing the momentum. But actually sealing the deal that early would be difficult. Beet's spammy white noise tone in the early game had already been pinging me, and that reaction hammer right after RF sounded like he was daring people seems like a great chance for Beet to brush it all off as just being cheeky.

capitalising.

pretty quick return on investment on that one.

i'm not saying that's why you're voting me. i said you started circling me yesterday for white noise. on day 1. which you did.

there is indeed misrepresentation going on here, but it's not from me.

bif, like, the idea is pretty clear: you lay some ground work about 'white noise' to bring up at a later date, or to keep throwing at me throughout the game because you know that's how i post.

you just got to use it a lot earlier than expected, though, with this opportunistic vote for yesterdays hammer. so the white noise thing just makes it seem like you've got more to your 'case'. because if you took that away you'd just be saying :

'i'm voting hambeet because he hammered after rf dared scum to hammer' and you know that wouldn't fly.

For the record I do wanna go all Gaspy voice, "the town who lunches me deserves to lose!!" but, I am really enjoying the thought of turbos catching on more, even if it leads to disastrous ends.

I'd just like to hope the ease of this vote in an exact replay from yesterday though, could at least sway some of y'all into maybe turboing the other direction

i'm pro turbo. i was going to post earlier in the day that 72 hour day 1's are torture. day 1 should be like, 24 hours max. day 2, 72 hours.

It makes things a lot easier when there's big timezone differences in play, too! No more "oh well all the UK people are asleep so they can't change their vote, let's just vote X then" right at deadline!

Sure some peeps might just miss the run up to hammer entirely, but that should just get them ready and raring to effortpost next day about all the stuff they couldn't say imo

Oh btw sorry I was talking about just the "pro turbo" part, keeping days that short in actual deadline rather than making them short in practice through an early hammer seems like trouble, when we're not all nicely lined up in Auspol time.
