confirmed

Okay, I mulled this over I checked with Opopanax that I was allowed to behave however I wanted.

I have an ability to friendship check, I was allowed to do this N0, presumably it's not in my favour to do so because of ambiguity and basically being a wild stab in the dark but I chose to do it anyways. I chose Lumpen.

Dear Lumpen, please tell the thread why you came up as "foe" also lol haha suck it bitchhhhhhh!



sorry though I do actually feel bad I shoulda targeted whoever I thought would lurk but this is funnier

also who are the newbies? any newbies?

On a dragon related note I decided to listen to the Skyrim soundtrack whilst revising because whilst I was listening to the Moon soundtrack (owns) I saw one for Oblivion, anyways that turned out to be a Tom Cruise movie so I typed in Skyrim 'cus I'm pretty hyped about that nordic acapella stuff.

So anyways there is a decent chunk of this soundtrack that's just like, really quiet ominous strings with occasional deep bass thuds, I thought I was going to say it was boring but I turned it up and it's actually pretty dope.

"Dear Opop, can I poo poo up your game?"

Wrecking stuff isn't very friendly. Maybe you are a foe?

To be honest I just wanted to give him an opportunity to tell me to not be a nob, I guess it was irrelevant :shrug:. It's been a while you know?

So anyways I'd like Lumpen to comment, foe is pretty ambiguous I'll admit that! But foe also seems pretty clearly bad guy. So idk, as far as I aware it was a binary "friend" or "foe", I'm some old wise-rear end dragon.

To be honest it's a bit nuts he gave me a role so obviously suited to me (wise, socialised), but I think Opopanax is a true gent who uses RNG, and with that I will cease to talk about this beloved mod.

Lumpen what sayeth you.

I sit at my desk all day like this :colbert:

I never smile.

My tail loops around the base of my chair. My wings are broad and powerful.

I gaze steelily across the room at Amoeba dragon, I feel a flutter in my dragonal chest cavity that is unbeknownst to me. Can this wise and powerful friendship detecting dragon learn to feel?

At the age of 983 eons I did not think this possible, though I must admit I did spend the majority of my time sleeping within the heart of a Volcano.

All I know is this, if all of those children and elderly people of the towns of yore had little amoeba faces, I imagine... I can't imagine. The things I did, burninate, everything under my dominion was just a flax topped plaything. But what if amoeba was in one of those cottages.

Hey Somberbrero are you like, for real? Or are you just doing things. I don't want to step on your toes if you're doing a thing, I can respect that.

But I just want to know because I might dayvig you that was pretty scummy and awkward. It's a well known fact that I am an excellent townsman, who cares deeply about finding scum because I like to win. So much so that some have called me mean or oppressive.

So let me know bro.

This answers the age old question of eccos gender, I always assumed it was like a tumblerite girl, who might use different pronouns out of respect to transgenders.


somber what if I told you that you voting me was a last ditch attempt to avoid getting killed and I think you'd be better served not omgus'ing me.

everything has a purpose, even if I was a babbling loon you'd surely want to pick through the responses as a townsperson?

seems pretty scummy to wanna kill the most active player on D1!



amoeba you're correct, I think you have to remember that I played like pretty much every active game and have a bad memory, I remember you being quite a chilled dude but I am loving your recent posts more.

fyi my read on lumpen as town was this:

I haven't played with him in a long time but I know he hates(hated?) being scum, I just the other day read over my Intuition mafia where he died D1 and I'm pretty sure that was the one with the gambit stuff he did, to be honest I skimmed it and D1 was the least interesting. I definitely saw him do at least one stupid scum gambit in my time and die for it, and he's like me in that he is a natural townie tryhard.

Either way, I'd expect Lumpen to be a pisspants if he was scum and not just react so calmly. Maybe that's an underestimation of Lumpen, but I just really liked his response.

well at least you're consistent I guess? How much longer do we have? I don't actually want a turbo lynch just because this game is so full of poo poo posting so far I'm pretty sure we're just picking people at random at this point and I think bandwagoning is marginally scummier than pushing for no turbo so nah I'll hold out a little bit longer thanks.

Emphasis mine. Right, so you said this with reference to yourself right? Since you're voting Amoeba for ~~football reasons~~ presumably it is not he who is being voted as the "scummier" person because there was no bandwagon reference there in your vote on him, so it's yourself?
With that in mind, why are you doing things based on how scummy they make you look? Is it because you're a scum and your goal is to not look scummy?

MC Eating Disorder posted:

if that actually meant anything to me I'm sure i'd take in on board and change my vote but if we're voting for real now I went back and read the thread again to see what the gently caress you were talking about and the only person that I think I'm actually suspicious of enough to call out for it is TheRam just because he's lying like hell under the guise of trying to get the game moving, when his bullshit is actually making it way harder for me to tell what is actually going on, much moreso than the usual jokephase poo poo so i'm going to ##vote TheRam

See I'm not sure if this is a dumbpost, a scumpost or a combination of the two. You said you were suspicious of me and in the same breath said "he's also confusing me" which is an easy thing to point to when I flip town to say "oh man that TheRam guy tricked me with his weirdness grrrr theram we needed you!". Over all your style makes me feel like you're new and that's actually something you'd do, like pretty much word for word.

I didn't do anything particularly egregious, I continued to tell lies to make the start of the game less poo poo until I decided to stop. It's pretty simple, friend!

That said, I still want to kill you. I want to hear from Lumpen too.
