I’m starting to get tired and hungry and nap time is close. gently caress it.

Scientastic, of the players in the game, who would you:
- Doc
- Mason
- Vig?

Tommu, same question to you.

Im going to be honest this game is a blur of bad mafia posters from the last ice age and IS and you all blur into one in my head so I'll be perfectly honest and say I would vig everyone and then vig myself.

What did Textbook think of Tommu calling out Somber? Don’t know, no comment

What did Textbook think of the fact that Tommu didn’t vote when he made his point, but waited a little bit? Don’t know, no comment

What did Textbook think of my case against Spokes? Don’t know, no comment

What did Textbook think of the fact I immediately retracted? Don’t know, no comment

What did Textbook think when Somber voted for the brand new player? Don’t know, no comment

What did Textbook think when he was called out by name? Holy poo poo, I’m not lurking, what the gently caress dude, there’s just been nothing to comment on, but I am definitely checking the thread for mentions of my own name, that counts as playing, right?

This is a good post tho the way Scientastic is trying to portray how I voted is disengenious and boring.

Thread's been dead all goddamn day, this is hilarious.

The "cases" were all weak and forced, because this is day one. I didn't think there were any cases worth making, yet. I do not agree that there was plenty to comment on. Plenty to take note of for later, but nothing substantial enough for a case.

(I got called out my last game for checking when people were active on the forums and just not posting in the game thread. I'm not doing that anymore, but I'm still almost always hoping someone else will :justpost: in my followed threads. There's nothing else to do, what with the everything. So it's... not hard to respond when I see "oh, a new post!" What the gently caress? Look at the posting times between you two, wow, doesn't that look coordinated??? Pff)

This feels like a very defensive dramatic response to light pressure. This dude at this point still isn't hunting scum and the points made against him seem valid if easy to push past.

I think there's enough room to hide. Scientastic's case on me only goes through because no one else has a better option because of others not reacting and responding to jokephase in addition to myself. It's inertia.

So null reads are pretty much because I’m not familiar with their posting styles or they haven’t posted much content, with three exceptions:

Tommu, who was scum in our last game and played it fast and hard last time is still kind of aggressive but that seems their normal play style and doesn’t seem as performative as before, so I’m leaning town on them.

Roy, who is a null read but seems very reticent to vote and kind of scared when everyone jumped on Text, which is suspicious but as I can see how maybe they were just worried the hunt was based solely on a joke post (still null, but depending on the flip maybe a Scum worried he bussed his buddy too early)

And Somber, who I have played with a couple times before and they seem a bit too cautious this close to DL than he had been in past games where he was town, making me lean scum on them.

I'll get this out there more clearly: I think Scientastic is scum and playing aggressively because it looks better that way. Someone else has said he was aggressive like this in another game when -- omg what -- he was scum.

Text, I appreciate that you came under heavy heat, and I agree that everyone’s jumped on your bandwagon pretty quickly. But, the best way to come out of this would not to be as performative, because even if you are town, building up such a staunch defense and so rapidly is pinging people like crazy

If you flip town, then my list will change significantly. For one, Sci would be in trouble. Two, Roy would be far less likely to be scum because my bussing theory would be shot, and I’d lean more on Somber.

Honestly I read Scientastic's initial post as very light pressure to get a response. It's a valid if cynical way to build a day one and I love it like I love a vb at 7:45 in the morning.

Following points.

1) textbook blows up at Scientastic. Derails game. Feels scum because its very reactive and non scum hunty.

2) is really weirdly fixated on lurkers.

3) none of this leads to a town read on him
