Ah yes, the recent Telltale adaption of Bone that came out just the other day in 2005

"Didn't do enough setup spec in an open setup game" is a read I guess.

Yeah, I didn't think that was the angle they were going to take, especially since you did kind of talk about plans revolving around the open setup which is kind of the setup-spec of open setup games.

You're not wrong, I haven't said much because there's really nothing to say atm...I could be a member of the "cube scum" peanut gallery but it feels like one of those things where everyone makes a comment on whoever the person of the hour is, not that everyone is being sincere. Somber and Opop feel sincere if not on opposite ends of whether this is/isn't scum Cube. You feel sincere too of course, but claiming a power role in an open setup game would just be a ludicrous claim if it weren't true.

There will be more to talk about tomorrow, D1s always suck but this one feels especially sluggish...Voodoo hasn't posted at all yet, FancyQuestion stumbled in without reading anything apparently...?

I would vote Zoya who has posted a lot but nothing really substantive right? Doing NK/scum math is good as content without actually discussing who is scum.

I would have to go back and look at posts a bit more but Somber and Opop don't really strike me as scummy. I'd vote for Cube (I can see why people say he's seeming reserved and agree, but also if Cube can't do setup spec on D1 what else is there to talk about? So I feel ambivalent there).

Somber has been kinda quiet so far, but I do like that he's got right into trying to hunt scum and I agree with his insights thus far. Opop is a bit up in the air to me.

At the moment I would be most interested in Zoya or Cube maybe, but I don't have super strong feelings there yet

Wow there really isn’t much to go on in here. If we accept what Voodoo says at face value he’s probably not scum, but eh

Yeah. And I'm feeling like that should be telling us something, but I'm at a loss as to what exactly.

That Opop is an OP-skimmer, I would think actual scum would know they don't have a third person. Or it is a very clever ploy

hmmm hmmmmm hmmmmmm how can i convince you guys to vote out the canadian in the next 4 hours and 57 minutes? gonna have to think for a bit, really tap into the well on this one

Thing is, no one here has been like "I don't want to vote the doc out" at Opop. There have been arguments up and down him, but none based on that. And tbf, there shouldn't be, either, factoring Opop's claim into anything is risky as gently caress for the reasons you all laid out

tbf I forgot he even made that claim (which I dunno if I think was serious) until Zoya starting talking about it again

I don’t know I guess I just see this as pretty standard opop:

1. Sand said something weird then flipped so good enough for a day 1 case
2. I’m obviously claiming doc so no need to say more or less about it
3. It’s day 1
4. If I get voted off stupid town deserves it.

Opop, how am I progressing at understanding the Canadian mindset?

You missed 2a, drink some Molson

##vote Maer

I could also see Opop. They're posting in thread so it's possible we could try and bully a claim out of them with enough time to swerve, but that doesn't seem as helpful today without a massclaim.

Is Maer a self-preservation vote? Or did you talk about her earlier and I missed it?

Fancy seems to be not posting much in a few games so I think thats not really alignment related.

What are you seeing? Somber is a little more reserved maybe than usual? Content wise though I thought he was alright, the “Maer dies a lot” post was a little weird maybe

Sandwolf posted:

Agreed but also if it’s gonna stay that way they’ll need to replace and then we’ll have to reassess the replacement and it’s just a lot to do in a smaller game

True, I’d vote there if that was the way the wind blew. Forgot how short these games can be

i said i'd only vote for cubevoters and somber's one of them! care to elaborate on why he's evil?

Good news, he did just before you posted that! I don’t really agree that somber hasn’t put in effort but I can see how he’d seem off since as I said before he isn’t as earnest and aggressive as he can be

Zoya posted:

it's a joke based on the letters of their name and the fact that their alignment is "SCUM" this game, scum starts with an S, and their alias ends in an S so you just replace one of the words with "Scum" and this is how the comedy is produced,

I think it would have worked better as Full of Scum but that's just me

I feel better about Sandwolf now that I am home and reading more. Still a bit indifferent to the Maer case but I will try ##vote Zoya and see where that gets us
