swap eden with bona and sprinkle in some ghug

bb is bb, lean town
bona hasn't done enough from what I've ingested, lean scum
Xcution hasn't made an impression on me, I think the posting style is one that doesn't instantly mesh with me

I rarely read games I don't play in. Life's too short

Did you know that Jamiet was voting Bozo when you voted Bozo?

@pyx — I know a few hours passed between these posts, but what changed regarding Bona here?

eden is scum again

this almost counts for my bona quota

almost

eden is scum again

ohh, spicy take just when I was to go ...

do you think worcej and myself were actually correct in our initial reads? Try to convince me that both of worcej and me are actually right and it's not just a case of bad early reads ...

i don't know what your or worcej's early reads were

well both our birth takes was that eden was mafia, in my case it was a feeling that was like ... not fitting in, as if somethings wrong, but yeah, what is the argument here that you say eden is mafia?

i think eden is capable of giving a lot of smoke and a lot of flair but as scum he just doesn't have substance

brain had it right earlier on, but it's really the case - see me vs eden last game. eden tried to make it a credibility war where we would together decide on options to resolve a hard cc battle, but really that was dumb. town eden isn't stupid

I'm not sure I'm convinced, but thanks for the answer.

What posts of Bona's made you think he was "building to something," the lack of delivery of which led you to light scumlean him? I agree that this post is more typical of town Bona:

What would a townie reaction to it have been?

obligatory it depends on the person - for example, neon will always dig in her heels, so that doesn't make sense to read her off it. i don't know the x man well enough yet but i am watching

...but I don't see where it's building to any conclusion about someone here. So if such a buildup formed the basis for a "towncore" read which I assume is meant to have some teeth, what posts were building up?

I agree that his catchup posts haven't been all that interesting or compelling (though funny). I don't think that's enough for me to knock him down to scumlean, or even "null but killable" (which is how I would characterize my "red" names), but if you were expecting a big delivery then sure I see it.

I don't understand your expectations of me here, so it's hard to evaluate the (apparent?) disconnect or how you reached this conclusion.

I think I've been quite substantive for d1. Obviously there was a lot of probably not helpful yelling at brainbomb, but I've done a lot of evaluation outside of him. If you're expecting me to hard solve the game then idk what to tell you lol. Not happening.

"What posts of Bona's made you think he was "building to something,""
Not posts, more my mental model of his cadence.

Right, but I assume he did some things early besides that one post you quoted to convince you that he was hitting that cadence. Did he?

well, I don't see it in the post from eden that you quoted. I guess I should stop for today and look at it with fresh eyes tomorrow. And probably look at the brain/eden argument again just to be sure, but not before I go to sleep.

[ghug]

I feel bad after this heuristic only worked by accident last game, but Kak posting early and then going silent continues to be a bad look.

I do not like it either. Town core should be active right now. Kak, you've got a few people who think you are town, care to speak up and participate?

Perhaps give them a couple more hours. People have things to do IRL too.

imagine posting this in the middle of the day

Do you actually think this is meaningful?

that post just set off alarm bells for what i viewed as a facetious attempt to set up pyxxy towards scumreading me. i don't object to being scumread, or to people convincing other people to scumreading me, but that it seemed to be being done on the sly like it was is a red flag for me

not in an alignment sense but expecting people to be active during the middle of the day as a prerequisite for being towncore is smoothbrain

How could I be “setting him up to scumread you” when my post expected clarification from him on his progression from townreading you to scumleaning you?

The subtext was actually that I thought it was suspicious that pyx backed off his townread of you without clear explanation. That’s quite apparent from the subsequent exchange I had with him.

But now I think he’s just right You literally quoted multiple “beliefs” of mine in your catch-up and now want to act like I don’t have any.

“No cap has been spoken.” Lol get the fuck outta here
