Hmm, decent amount of pressure on wolo suddenly. Not sure I like it, their posting seems consistent with previous town games of theirs. Townlist is wolo, binus, potentially scum is Mona?

I am actually serious when I say that I think Keane is town because I don't get good vibes from him btw.

However I'm not really liking Clo this game so far at all, which kind of does collateral keane a bit:

Cloacamazing! posted:

This was around 3 votes which clearly weren't serious.

wol is a beautiful unique force of nature. Join me in appreciating our wol. ##vote wologar

Oh I guess this is the pressure salad(?) was referring to

Cloacamazing! posted:

Yeah, I should probably ##unvote, my wol vote wasn't exactly serious. Although he did decide I was effortposting scum after reading a single post of mine, which I am quite salty about! Train your seal-reading skills, wol, they still need some work.

Binus is binussing, I'm still paranoid about him straying from the usual "Im town". There's a lot of people townreading him just from this too.

Mona is kind of a null read for me. I agree with them that Toal needs to explain her Maerlyn vote, because I really dislike that "I am casting my vote, but will not explain why!" thing.

Before anybody asks "Who scum, Cloaca?", currently no big reads, some scrumptious scumpings from Yami for distracting us with Pokémon talk and Toal for that votestuff. Would currently vote either of them.

This post pings me something fierce.

Quick walkback on jokevote? Check.
"Paranoid" about b-? Check.
Oh and those reads barely count. Toal just hasn't explained stuff yet. That's not a scumread, that's just waiting on toal to explain themselves. And what exactly am I supposed to be distracting the thread from, jokephase?

As I much as I loathe the phrase cloaca seems to be trying too hard here.

this interaction is stinky:





For the record I don’t have a read of cloacamazing at the moment. They’re firmly in the null category

I think it’s weird how keane hasn’t responded to me. I’ve called him scum a few times. Now I don’t expect everyone to respond whenever someone calls them scum. What I find odd is how keane called out mona, who was responding to me


Third time calling keane scum:

Asking mona what he thinks of my scum list:

Mona’s response:

Keanes response:

Doubling down:

It’s just weird because I’ve been the one pushing the idea that keane is scum, and Mons basically said he wasn’t sure. If keane is scum, then I think part of the reason he didn’t respond to my callout is because he already said that I was town in an esrlier post. There are a few other keane posts that pinged me but this is what I’m thinking right now

It's from jokephase, b-. That's what it is.

Also lol at people trying to force more engagement out of me when I said I was gonna take it easy. I already gave my 2 cents about cloaca which was my biggest ping.

I understand how KB feels now I guess.

I actually find myself vibing with Keane's read on Mona rn. Not sure about Maer yet.

AN's case on binus is pretty bad (accusing him of no effort casing but binus is probably putting the most effort I've seen from him in awhile, which...I don't know what that says actually, someone hold me I'm frightened). Will give AN a closer look.

I do like the idea of Yami and Keane being scum, maybe with a side of Hal...

##vote Yami

I feel like Yami's been flying a bit under the radar, at this point he would have found some small little hole to poke into, his only real read so far is a kinda meh case on Cloaca.

Oh there's the vote.

Not only did I literally say I'm going to tryhard less, my case on Cloaca is perfectly valid for day 1 imo, and you should know what me being disengaged means better than this.

This feels like deliberately ignoring context here (meta and otherwise).

I'm sorry I reread your posts but didn't see a "going to take it easy this game" memo, I can't say I've ever seen you as a disengaged player. I also feel like that's a copout for what is essentially not even that much of a "case", more like an observation and agreement with others that you are coming across a little scummy.

Also my favorite tactic by people who usually turn out not to be town:

Hyperbole (exaggerated statements), like saying I "got aggressive" on you after poking Clo.
I'll have to come back around to that and this tomorrow, it's after 4 AM:

I'm not sure how I'm "going under the radar" and "getting aggressive" on you at the same time, those don't seem to mesh.

I posted that before the game.

In the discord.

You mostly ignored me "laying low" until I poked Cloaca. At which point I suddenly became your top priority if your vote is something to go by.

You have seen more than enough games of mine to know what my scum meta looks like. You've literally even admitted to never having seen me as a disengaged player, WHICH INCLUDES SCUM GAMES.

Your case is literally "Oh, yami isn't posting as much as usual and has only posted one meh case". That's it. It's day one and I think the case isn't even as bad as you're trying to convince the case it is.

What I am seeing here, Maer, is you being opportunistic as gently caress. You KNOW that my levels of engagement are not alignment indicative and yet you're trying to make it out to be. I also don't buy that it's your top choice for vote.

Half of the ones are carried over from a jokephase post that I really don't feel is damning enough to attract quite that much attention. Salad voted them based on tone which is like, alright for day 1 I guess.

Cool, anyway.

So far I'm kinda suspicious about vote movement and sort of teamed looking actions between maer-cloaca and possibly keane, but really not sure about the last one. Keane is mostly because of cloaca's weird rear end question about the keane joke votes.

Dunno if it's maybe b- instead of keane there, or... gently caress IDK. I still suck at reading b-, would probably be a thing to revisit if one of cloaca and maer is scum.

So the fact that Maer is willfully ignoring my meta to make a "oh no yami is lurking, therefor scum" case doesn't bother anyone?

No?

Fine, whatever.

I read anarc and I dunno about "setting up for doing d1" or whatever, but they do seem way too invested in their own survival. I don't know if that's normal for anarc tho.

Would still prefer maer or cloaca for actual info on other players, though. Anarc hasn't really done anything other than talk about how they don't wanna die.

Tbh I'm not really enjoying this game so far. I feel like people are just talking past each other for the most part. I appreciated wolo actually engaging with me far more than I should.

So far I still don't understand why my cloaca case is supposed to be bad, it's just lol no and somehow I'm sus for it. Then I point out Maer's attitude and it just gets dismissed and ignored.
