this felt a bit intense emotion relative to the lack of knowledge we had on the setup

Disproportionately intense emotion to fairly mundane things is sorta his thing, yes. Take a look at a few of his early game ISOs:

How about I get Theta down to 10 and then I’ll stop

I don't trust your ability to count and think you or someone else would probably just tip Theta over the edge at some point when nobody is looking

Didn't you say you wanted to RVS or something?

VOTE: Taly for bianco's VC thing

this doesnt really align with what is said later

I don't really follow what you mean, and expecting Dragon to have perfectly sensible and consistent thoughts always is a recipe for frustration. I've been there.

I disagree because:
1. A read is not a "reward", it's what I think about a person. This is like saying that if somebody who's known for high-efforting as scum plays a low-effort game I'm "rewarding" them for low effort by townreading them. It's silly.
2. Why do you think it's informed? I mean I don't have meta on scum!Wheme so maybe I'm wrong, but to me it seems very unlikely that scum!them would act with such rash / goofy behavior in a way that draws a lot of attention. How is that not a valid read?

i found 2 to be rhetorical on a second glance but i could see an alternative perspective

Not sure what you think is rhetorical, or why it'd be problematic if it was.

The probelm I have is with Taly not answering it at all and also not really responding to what bianco said.

this felt like an overexplanation

This feels like nitpicking his posting style.

VOTE: Dragon

Alright I will do some ISO job to see if I find anything scummy

Didn't you already find something scummy

I honestly kinda forgot about that

But yeah I should probably pressure that

Oh look I'm already voting Taly

this was after my response to his prompt, which is the main ping i had with this slot

i also tend to scumread promises that arent kept

What promises are you referring to here? He did start looking at ISOs. And what exactly 'pinged' you? That he apparently didn't acknowledge a response from you?

[Doctor Drew]

I have skimmed backwards to about page 8 or nine.

What is this game Sky? Lol

I was gonna ask who Wesley is as well, but seems like it is a mystery to all.

Also, Aureal will hopefully get a chuckle out of hard defending mybslot without even knowing it lol.

(Though I do find it odd that she was so greatly defending Ice, but I don't think I could scum doing that unless they really really want the town cred......plus seems kinda par for the course on how she acts when fired up town).

So far that is my only real read, but still at work so will catch up more later on.

[jjh927]

jjh

, what was attractive about flipping

dragon

? you mentioned they looked like a scum slot

Was a bit of a gut feeling I was starting to get with the way they were promising content later when tbh there's not even really that much to discuss in detail yet

I think scum are more likely to feel self conscious about when they're not doing stuff and basically my immediate thought when I voted was that Dragon might just be a player who struggles to play scum

[Taly]

i dont have a pretty sounding answer

aureal

, i just had a gut ping and thought acting on it would resolve it

What do you make of Aureal's defense of Ice?

[WhemeStar]

I’m really fckin confused

[HighPrincessErinys]

UNVOTE:
idk why we have to manually unvote assuming the theory of "dragon's slot is dead but only at the end of the day" is true. Maybe wesley was right about loved?

oh yeah the threat assessment board, first time noticing its changed in a while

[biancospino]

I don't understand why are we just assuming that Drew is condemned over the much simpler explanation that some effect just prevented his wagon from being a majority.

Also someone having a vote weight <1 would explain the 5/10 thing.

VOTE: wesley

[Taly]

i like the tone of

drew

so i hope your assessment is correct'

i kind of want to use a the board as a communication device

[Taly]

to who controls the board

Place "Taly" in the 4. position if you want to use your threat assessment as a way to communicate reads

Place "Taly" in the 3. position if you want to use the threat assessment board in another way

Place "Taly" in the 1. position if you do not want to continue this

or just ignore this message, I'd take the next VC or two as an answer.

you have no commentary on your flashwagon? and potential flash-elimination?

[Taly]

I’m really fckin confused

we may or may not have turbolimmed

drew

before he rep'd in

aureal

is strong on

dragon/drew

slot being town here

jjh, myself, brancospino

all have differing ideas about

wesley's

slot

Well I was confused about how it happened so quickly, I know you had some issues with Ice, but was it about Ice repping out as well?

But ya, Aureal's defense of Ice was what stood out the most for me during all that.

[HighPrincessErinys]

I don't understand why are we just assuming that Drew is condemned over the much simpler explanation that some effect just prevented his wagon from being a majority.

idk there's some bullshit going on regardless and it concerns me

[Doctor Drew]

Also I assume I wouldn't know if I was loved, right?

Yeah, thinking Dragon was getting turboyeeted based on vague "he feels weird" suspicion was rather alarming since he normally comes off that way early on. He's certainly capable of putting on a strong showing once things get past there so he's like, the last person who should be getting a swift boot.

(Although personally I feel better about my chances of reading you accurately, can't count on thinking the same thoughts as him all the time like I needed to finally townread him last time )

[Aureal]

I don't understand why are we just assuming that Drew is condemned over the much simpler explanation that some effect just prevented his wagon from being a majority.

Because some people don't care to think about mechanics I guess?

Also someone having a vote weight <1 would explain the 5/10 thing.

VOTE: wesley

Why vote wesley?

[Aureal]

aureal

is strong on

dragon/drew

slot being town here

To be more precise, I'm strong on it being a terrible idea to turboyeet the slot halfway through day one. I don't have a super strong read anywhere yet, though I do get some town vibes making it even more likely than the default 3-1 odds of being town.

[Aureal]

Also I assume I wouldn't know if I was loved, right?

I feel like you

typically

would be told about such a thing. This is obviously a quite bastard game so I wouldn't lay money on it, but I

really

do not think that is the explanation for what's going on here and find the way some people are trying to find alternate explanations other than the obvious one to be

quite

peculiar.

[Taly]

this game is pretty easy if

{aureal, jjh, theta}

are all town

i dont have a good track record at reading

meuh

so if anyone has insight there, feel free to share

... and I find the way you are declaring the "delayed execution" theory the

obvious

to be quite peculiar. To me the "someone is voteless" theory is much more credible.

Also someone having a vote weight <1 would explain the 5/10 thing.

VOTE: wesley

Why vote wesley?

Look, I'm lazy, and don't see any appealing reason not to just cut the very obvious gordian knot in the room.

Come on, does

anyone

believes that 373 is anything but just a lie? Which, btw, they're even patently flaunting in 388
