Damn, Nacho, that's some pretty decisive scum hunting.

I just woke up, but I'll talk about a bit more when I get to work.

what did he do that made you think that it was NOT a scum tell anymore?


This.
I like that you're able to pin down exactly what it is that you'd like to know. It'd be neat if Fuzzy could get back to you on that, but I think that it was generally the way that I responded that made him realize I'm just kinda new to the game. Either way, I do like that kind of zeal, even if you swapped what I felt was a pretty logical vote in order to pressure Fuzzy.

As far as Nacho goes, now that he's put a bit more into the game, I've got a better gauge of where he stands.

He's been making some really solid pro-town suggestions, but that might just be because he's an IC.
I like that he was able to cut through a lot of the fluff and get down to business.
While I agree with his initial vote on Yoshi, I find it understandable, if a bit awkward, that he quickly changed such a logical vote if only to pressure Fuzzy.

Although, it's funny, since he and Fuzzy were locked in such back and forth dialogue, but after asking what he did in post 139, Fuzzy hasn't responded to anything since. Could be chalked up to timing and Fuzzy just being like "screw this", but I think that's pretty important.

My questions right now:
Fuzzy, why did you leave so suddenly instead of vindicating yourself?
Yoshi, why are you so quick to agree with everyone who enters with a strong post? You did this with me, Fuzzy, and, now, Nacho. I would understand if we all made good points, but my post-quota suggestion -was not- a good point.
Nacho, how do you feel about Yoshi now that you've interacted with him and got reads from him?

I'd really like if the less active people would actually post and stop lurking. Step forward and actually engage in what's going on and prove to us that you are town.

I've literally just stopped doing that. Nacho's point was the last one I agreed with, because it was logically good. I think I'm making some good, independent points at the moment; what are your thoughts on those?

I find it quite interesting that Yoshi's list of reads is missing someone.

I am falling on the side of newb-Varsoon rather than scum-Varsoon, with recent postings.

unvote

Vote: Random Yoshi


Even factoring in the language issue, he just seems nervous and flighty. Also, putting two people in 'town' by PoE is .....odd, even though I understand the reasoning. I guess I'm a big fan of null reads.

A list!

Town
nacho
fuzzybutternut
Normal Guy
Varsoon (weak)

Null
kuror0
Nabber
kitiekatt

Scum
Random Yoshi
....what?

Hey, I'm not weak, I'm just out of shape!

I noticed how anxious Yoshi was awhile back, and it still seems that way to me.

You were pretty quick to agree with him, then do what he said. It seems like you're really quick to try to cover your bases and do what people tell you, but you shouldn't have so many bases to cover if you weren't a bit suspicious.

Everything you've been doing is just highly reactionary, even recently.

I haven't been using my voting power as forcibly as I should and that's because my gut reaction to your first posts were that they were scummy. It became more apparent that when the post-quota was a bad idea, your quick support of it seems like more of a buddying move than anything. This is made even more apparent when you quickly latched to every new, decisive entry in this game. My vote (and opinion of you) goes unchanged.

You're either scum or really, really anxious town.

RY does seem to be particularly on edge. If he's scum, he might be worrying that his scumbuddy is being target. If he's innocent, then he's really eager for some leads. Either way, we need to post more, either to exploit the lead or to find a new one. I'm not completely convinced he's scum, but he is someone to watch carefully.

In post 129, kuror0 wrote:Well, the only one really proddable is Nacho at this point i think. I hope kitie either finds time to keep up with the game or gets replaced, an inactive slot is very hurtfull for town.

VOTE: Nabber

I think Varsoon is actually town and i will keep an eye on those that voted him after i did.

Mind explaining this vote?

Heck, Nabber, I could explain that vote for you.
You've been really inactive, and people could read the posts that you have made as rather insubstantial/buddying/fluff in light of the recent activity we've had.

Bored and no one is posting.
I'd also like to pressure Nabber into being more active, but I'm not going to use my vote to do it, since it's going to remain on you for now.

You seem to be making up for it considering you seem to be posting three times in a row every time you come on. : P

Jokes aside, sorry for being inactive. I have rather strict parents who hate me using electronics and I can't really access from school so I find it hard to come on often. But I'm here for now.

:3 Sorry, I do post a lot. I wish this game had an 'edit post' option, but that would probably cause more problems than it would solve.

It's okay, man, you're more active than a lot of the people here. That situation is completely understandable.
Just look at what's been going on in the game and respond to everyone/put your thoughts down for us.

It's k, just really weird/suspicious timing on your part. Same thing I said to Nabber goes to you. Make sure to read up and respond/put down your thoughts.

My vote on you is exactly for posts like the quote above. You tend to go a lot with the flow yet you don't like to take a strong stance on anything. And based on my experience this is what scums tend to do the most, so right now, you are my strongest scum read, and therefore my vote.

Okay,
@Nacho- The more I listened to him explain his stance on what I had originally voted him for, the more I realized that he was just a noob that had no idea it was bad to think this. Keep in mind,
I could very much be wrong about my read
, so feel free to disagree, but I feel that he is newbtown. I had some pretty bad ideas of how the game was played my first game, and I was town.
@Yoshi- Getting the ball rolling is a null tell at the least, and you should never, ever, think someone is automatically town for that.
