Oh are we making cop jokes? Hell yes

I can’t wait to “forget” to read someone their Miranda rights, or get acquitted for murder because the town I police in can’t afford a multi-million dollar settlement out of their insurance.

Mr. Humalong posted:

I think one of the larger issues is there’s no real reward system for being a great cop. I know someone will say “being a good person should be its own reward” or something, but at the end of the day you want to be recognized for doing your job well. It becomes very discouraging when that doesn’t happen.

Because 99% of jobs don’t get special rewards for being good at your job. A good coder doesn’t get free Dunkin and public approval if they’re good at their job. Why the gently caress do police deserve special treatment because they did well in the field that they personally decided to join?

I think Amnistar is town, though it’s ludicrous to me to have so many reads that quickly into D1.

I think Podima has been consistent. I think steak is coming off as genuine.

I don’t have many reads or anything right now so I’m trying to put them down as I have them.

like did you really read me saying as “Podima has been consistent” as a strong alignment read worthy of dissecting? I think he’s been townie because of that consistence, but I’d hardly jump in front of a bullet for him.

I don't know, did I say it's a strong read worthy of dissecting? do you see that? anywhere? my question was 1. how can you infer anything from a consistent tone, especially on day 1, and now 2. if it's nota read and just a comment on his...Tone..... then...um... this seems like a weird thing to force yourself to post, on your list of reads of 3 people in the game.

I am forcing myself to post, I’ve already mentioned a strained investment in this game. I’m trying to post and talk about what I think. I just don’t think much of this game so far.

Hot drat guys, it's day 1! Podima you have written like half the posts in the thread, I can't keep up with the needling. This seems to be a 100% power role game, so waiting for more action info would help a lot I think. Oh well. I seem to be well out of the meta.

I don't see myself getting out from in front of this bandwagon, so I'll just say that Tommu is confirmed town. Sorry if that isnt the best play to say it right now but it seems the best way I can use the info I have.

Man I’m lurking because I kind of hate this game. Gulag isn’t fun at all, Podima is bullying anyone who talks, bernstrikr made a dumb and scummy post and then steak got hounded for calling it out as such

I’m not scum though, this isn’t even my scum meta. *pulls toothpick out of ear* I’m a cop baby

Steak covered extensively why Bern’s argument is so bad, it’s a policy lynch based on some ill-conceived concept that scum would want to push from imp to Dancer ~so bad~

Paul ReiserFS posted:

I'm on board for this tbqh -- phoneposting last night so wasn't very verbose. I don't know Gulag's meta (but it sounds pretty shitposty) and I hate meta defenses, so he's posting weird pseudo-claims and OMGusing for no reason and being very "weird and forced" and that's enough for me in the context of everything that's been posted thus far.

I need to be very deliberate with my voting this game, instead of my usual willy-nilly, but ##vote Gulag

This first vote is way too heavily explained for early in D1, it reads self conscious as hell to me, especially as the game was leaving jokevote

Paul ReiserFS posted:

Bern -- can you clearly explain your lie detector thing, and whether it's shitposting or not?

Kind of fishing but ultimately inconclusive

Paul ReiserFS posted:

(This is in response to Bernstrike saying: “If you’re town you have nothing to worry about)
I have nothing to worry about.

So it all just feels pretty artificial, rather forced. The fishing for lie detector ish is weird, but could support either conclusion. The other posts are much more awkward to me, overly conscientious. I’d vote Paul but I don’t think he’s definitely scum, probably 6-7 on the scummy scale
