I don't know what you tried to do there, Damo, but it looks like you fucked it up.
Potato, potato; potato.

Here’s what I’m gonna do. I’m not voting Dip today, because he’s acting in the crazy tinfoil way he does as town. My main concern with Dip is that he’s faking it. But I don’t think he can keep up his facade forever if he is faking not, so I’m going to leave him be most likely

Guys…can we not do the “vote red for scummy lurker” day 1 again?!?

He’s got like triple the posts he normally does.

He’s interacting a little and trying a little.

And we as a group kinda promised we’d reward that with letting him live till day 2 and try and see how to turn it around.

I agree. I wanna vote him too. But cmon. This is sooooo lazy, and we’re all gonna learn nothing.

So…##vote mimi.
A convert! Join the cul… club!

Can you explain Mimi a little?

Shit. He usually only does blatant shit like that and changing around his signature when he’s town.

Sigh.
If you’re into reverse psychology this is a great reason to scumread Jamie. But maybe reverse psychology is wrong and you should townread Jamie! Or maybe we can just conclude that any meta that a player can force isn’t useful meta.
Jamie doesn’t change meta. You can tell him “this is why I voted you. Look. Right here” and he’ll do it again next time.
A fantastic reason to avoid using his meta to read him!

not scummy per se, just weird how you seem to talk to dw differently than others. note that i'm just voting on a whim to see if anything comes from it; my town reads are much stronger than my scum leans



overall yeah, at least in relation to other high posters. out of low posters control v is weird for calling out someone for not contributing then proceeding to not contribute so honestly that might be scummier, but it kind of feels weird sring people who have barely been here to defend themselves. it's not like everyone is going to endvote immediately so idk why i'm hesitant abt it and honestly it might elicit more of a defense then waiting w/o voting



i've played one game with you so idrk (i mean i did host one but i didn't really pay attention that much to anyone)
Ok. Follow up questions. Do I resemble my town game? And why do you find me scummy in general?
not really, in 92 you came in with reasoning about mech, and generally when responding to posts you were consistently putting extra interpretation of your own on other peoples posts that weren't directed to you. this game many of your posts have been simple questions and/or responses to posts directed to you.

but aside from meta, which doesn't mean much in the grand scheme of things imo since people can change, rethinking why i thought you scummy it makes sense that you would act differently with dw and bo since they're two different people so ig you're not really as scummy as i initially mused but you're still not very towny imo

tbh i'll probably just bandwagon on one of my null reads at eod since idrc about finding scum just yet, more so getting information and finding town
I feel like I’m doing all the things you claim I’m not. Also thx for reevaluating on the Bo/Dip thing.

Who else would you vote atm? I think it’s unlikely I die today

##vote rdr
Huh?

I don't understand why D&W's reply, to BoSox, on the subject of his scumread of BunnyGo, is a reason to vote Rdr, who was not mentioned or involved.

Explain Bunny?
Because I was going to vote rdr, and I thought maybe…just maybe he’d be shocked enough to notice I’ve never scumreac him.

You…you’re just hyper.

Do you think Mimi’s reasoning for voting me holds up? I think the reasoning they gave was kind of flimsy and just looking for problems that arent there

That’s literally not what I’m saying, mate.

And I don’t think it’s due to American to English translation.
What is the actual point that you are making then?

Is it "Jamie has a tendency to scumread people who make bad arguments that don't make sense"?

Because I'll happily accept that.
I was talking to bo.

I was explaining to him you do not seem to change game to game. That you don’t engage in WIFOM antics. You’re very much you.

Now. You’re butting in to my conversation with bo. And I’m very much enjoying what he’s been posting.
If you want to talk to me I recommend not saying things intended for me to Jamie

##Vote Dream

I'm a bit behind. Encourage people to review a few of Dreams early posts especially concerning calculations. Mechanics talk, as we all know, is a place scum can hide. I'll try to read more later, busy few days.

The random spate of votes on Dream in the last page is pretty odd.

Has anyone else made their mark in this game discussing mechanics or is Dream the only one? If Dream is the only one, how is that hiding? If Dream isn’t the only one, why are you ignoring others?

I have a bunch of meetings today so I need to cast a vote now. Hope to be able to get back before EOD.

##vote DreamTrawler

I don't like the kill a lurker meme and his posts seems too fluffy, like he (or she) don't want to antagonize anyone.
Is Dream the only one whose posts seem fluffy like they don’t want to antagonize someone or is this a “better drop my vote on someone because I say I hope to be back for EOD but don’t really intend to be” vote?
