Sup,

FWIW I wasn't tadpoled/in any way... ["Hey Siri, what are some synonyms for messed with?"] /in any way interfered. manhandled. mucked (about or around) butted in or meddled.


Tbh, idk how useful this mass claim is? Anyone who sucks the tadpole won't claim it and anyone who doesn't suck the tadpole would probably say smt imho.

Bunny suggested this right? Could this be busywork from Bunny to gain a false sense of towniness?

Yes I think so, I asked him why he would do this with a bunch of other questions...no answer yet

Eh, it’s not harming the town much

Low-benefit? Maybe but it’s low effort too (which is a plus)

Nah I liked his answer, I think its actually high benefit

##call GM are you going to count it? He voted for MadMonarch

[Dousing]

So you said you figured out what happened to ghug “tonight while commuting”

Ohh oops lol,

Nah I took a metro downtown to
1. Buy a French-English dictionary (I went to three of my local bookstores and NONE of them had one(!))
2. Enjoy/plan out my day
3. (Last and certainly least) Mull over the game for a bit

##vote dousing. The whole last 30 minutes have been absurd scum error game.

(I’m not gonna do this) but I sooooo badly wanna post my Google maps timeline to show you that I really was traveling downtown. It’s *almost* worth doxxing myself over [this is a joke]

So you’re gonna vote me over word choice? Look, I said tonight bc I’m almost always on webdip in the evening. Even when I play *actual* games of diplomacy I almost always come online sometime around just before sundown. After like two-three years on this website I guess I have some bad habits.

Really? On the website it says yoyo voted for monarch at 17:47?

[Squigs44]

I did a iso read of Bunny and am left thoroughly unimpressed. Their voting record is abysmal, their early reads/scumhunting was weak and I couldn't follow some of their progression. Notably their comments around KoP and Balki had a weird progression that could very well fit with a scum!Bunny. I also dont love the amount of time spent role playing day 1 and talking about mechanics after that time. A high percentage of Bunnys posts are not solving. And those that are "solving" just don't feel like they are really digging beyond the surface.

I also dont like Bunny trying to rally a lfischl/PE wagon right after PE subbed in, seems like potentially scum!Bunny afraid of town!PE being better than town!lfischl. Not sure why town!Bunny would want to rush the lfischl wagon there.

Bunny has stated that they hate the early game because there is less solving to be done, so I can sorta see a scenario where this is just town!Bunny who is lost and waiting for more info to solve, but from what I *have* seen, its been pretty bad.

Im fine keeping Bunny in my PoE with Jamie/Bona (and lfischl/PE pending more PE posts) - just got to decide if I want to try to keep this Bona wagon going or flip to Bunny to make the EoD more interesting

Where is Fox in your POE - in, out, who cares, etc?

[FlaviusAetius]

I will shortly be logging off for the night, and will not be back until probably just before EOD. I will almost certainly not have time to catch up before EOD, but I hope I will be around.

I strongly encourage people to look at Flum and ask if this is authentically town Flum or if this is a pretty good appearance created by scum Flum. I admit, the thing I am most excited about is pretty tinfoily, and I did semi-randomly pick Flum to see if there was a case. But I think I'm on to something. I don't think we're seeing the interesting, jovial, prone to shitposting Flum, I think he's restrained and not giving us the creative leaps that I recall from town Flum. I also think his push on Bunny is basically finding one significant inconsistency and picking, picking, picking at it until it becomes a miskill.

Maybe its time I get back onto the Flum wagon...

Technically I tried the fish wagon BEFORE Pres subbed in

Where is Fox in your POE - in, out, who cares, etc?

I slotted him in my "paranoid" category, where I think his game could very well fit either town or scum, but I think there is value in keeping him around at least a little longer.

So in my PoE, but certainly not a top voting option

[FlaviusAetius]

I said this before and I'll say it again I wont vote Fox until I see his spreadsheet. The longer he delays his spreadsheet giving the more I think he is a mafia. But we should still see the thing, EVERYONE should want to see it.
1. if you think he is mafia, then seeing this spreadsheet that is likely being workshopped by the mafia gives us keen insight into what their thinking
2. if you think he is town, then reading his reads are an important part of what would make the case for that
3. if you think he is NAI right now, then this is whats going to move you over the edge one way or the other
4. if you are fox then you talk about your spreadsheet so much, share us the results!

Oh, I missed this on catchup, sorry.

You'll never see the spreadsheet. It only works if scum don't know what I'm looking for in terms of deciding that two players can't be scum together.

Also, FWIW, I'm not doing a spreadsheet for this game. (Well, not yet anyway, it's much more useful later on.) I mean, sure, I've heavily implied that, and maybe I even said it, but mostly, I'm just enjoying how much it's become a Thing.

Bump

So you're telling me your spreadsheet went the way of Hunter Biden's laptop?

LOL sorry Fox you gotta go down for this I just dont believe you not one bit, you talked about this spreadsheet so much this game you are so done.
##vote fox
Im not letting this go

Did you notice that Fox has been lying about his speadsheet all game? Thats not something normal Fox does no way

[Squigs44]

This is the post I didnt like where you pushed others to join an lfischl wagon:

@squig & Vecna & Colby & aaro & Flum & fox &jamie

You all wanted fish at some point day 2. He was a lead wagon. With lots of discussion about him.

I haven’t seen or heard any reasons this is gone but I think I’m the only one who has voted him today.

Wassup?

The replacement happened before that:

Lfischl has been replaced by President Eden

President Eden has replaced lfischl

[worcej]

And hasn't he also significantly altered his playstyle today after I called him out for not solving?
If he did it *because* of me calling him out, that's also incredibly scummy.
I also stand by my vote analysis on him from yesterday.

Oh you also noticed it

I will reiterate that I was largely coasting until last night due to a rough week and the sheer massiveness of the game. But scum me for that if you will.

I appreciate the realness of this statement
