    Yeah okay.

    Did you look at the /spoilered quote from the game you linked me?

    Like how do you respond to fonti saying "Sloth doesn't play like that as scum" and then the first post of the first game you linked me was a scumgame of Sloth's that was like point for point / tone exact copy of his first few posts this game.

    Addendum - apologies Citrus/others if I'm pulling you away from exams and stuff. I have free time right and won't have much tonight/tomorrow/Monday so I'm trying to Get Shit Done right now.

    I'm not saying he is or is not scum or anything. I'm just noticing a lot of players justifying their votes by "oh look he hasn't defended himself he must be scum". That is NOT a reason to scum-read him imo, as I stated last time.

    I've been studying all day with occasional forays into the thread (like now). You're totally fine, trust me if I needed to stay off here more than the moderate amount I'm here I have the self-control to do so (or the balls to take the responsibility myself lol)

    Maybe you could help that out by giving a read on Sloth!

    Or, you know. Anyone.

    ---------- Post automerged at 06:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:24 PM ----------

    Man Citrus I was just being snarky but I did a skim ISO of you right now and daaaaaaamn. You blank vote fonti for voting you I guess, townread Acio for meta, and poke a bunch of people over things. Oh and have no read on Sloth Mr. "I'm not saying he's not scum." Unless I missed something?

    God damn Citrus, feel free to start playing at some point. I can't believe you're the #3 poster what even is this game :/

    I'll issue a round of prods in ~12 hours or so.

    Giving a little leeway since I know Finals and stuff are happening, but there's people who haven't posted in days.

    I feel like it'd be more likely w/w for the easy mild distancing factor. Lack of urgency is still a thing though unless font were just really confident that sloth could turn things around

    You don't feel like I'm doing anything? I'm doing a helluva lot more than half the players in this game hence #3 poster (and counting!)

    ---------- Post automerged at 08:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:43 PM ----------

    Like it's WAY easier to just react to things when I only check in every now and then. Except there's like nothing happening except for you saying stuff every now and then, hence me talking to you/commenting on your stuff.

    I can understand being a bit frustrated at everyone but I really am NOT the one you should be scolding right now of all people, all things considered. At least I'm actually posting

    ---------- Post automerged at 08:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:44 PM ----------

    *react to things as opposed to rereading and hunting for stuff, especially considering strong players (like yourself) have already gone through/are going through it all

    Holy crap, I thought you were exagerrating. This is pretty crap lol.

    Gotta love how a bunch of players have decided this is my "afk busy meta" when I'm literally at double the number of posts of 1 shy of half the game.

    And that's counting all my auto-merges (like this one) as 1 post besides

    Yeah that's kind of my point lol. You're active but for a high activity #3 poster you're pretty light on concrete opinions. Like - you poked demon and Miner over their Sloth activity thing. You also have dodged me / put me off over Sloth himself like 2-3 times.

    And yeAh there are people posting way less and obviously they should post more but you're avoiding making yourself transparent to the point where I'm kind of concluding as I'm writing this that it has to be intentional.

    So like. What's up, my citric friend?

    ---------- Post automerged at 06:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:50 PM ----------

    Ugh phone posting is awful. I meant to say you poked those guys over their Sloth votes but you didn't offer any "therefore I think X" follow up.

    I said my conclusions before? I liked Miner's response, I felt eh/null-ish on demonturtle's.

    I have no idea what you mean by avoiding making myself transparent.

    And are you real. For the third time, the only point I was making on Sloth was the "NOT HERE != SCUM SLIP". Like literally that's the only thing I have commented on Sloth at all. If you think I'm trying to avoid answering something that's completely unintentional, you're expecting a full on answer when I only intend or have noticed the he isn't here part. I haven't even looked in depth at his wall-post.

    Like yes the wording is similar to the thing you quoted when he was scum in the other game. I remember his style being like that in general, you didn't say you looked at his town games, so to me that point can possibly be equivalent to an experiment with a bad control.

    And there's 5 votes on him already goodness. It's not like the 6th one is the magical "oh shit better get in the thread and answer those accusations stat!" vote. I'd probably vote him too if there were less votes on him right now but it's not necessary because the majority of the thread pressure is on him and majority of thread pressure is what decides the lynch!

    I dislike D1's personally regardless, I'm not going to make up a concrete opinion unless I actually think it, I'm not going to spit out a colorful super dense all-inclusive read-wall any time soon. That's just how it's gonna be, especially when there's like 5 posts to go on from /almost anyone/.

    Yeah I guess Citrus I'm saying that I hold you to different standards than other people. Like. I know you have that extra gear to just lead the thread and propose plausible worlds and drive a lunch. Other folks don't, or at least I haven't see in. Like Kai can have brilliant insights but he's never going to take the game super seriously or be a Town Leader. And that's fine! "Too many cooks in the kitchen" is a thing. But.

    I guess I'm just thinking of, like, Hannibal Mafia and how you played in that or something.

    Damn your flattery. Fair enough, it's definitely reasonable to hold me to that standard. I do enjoy a good lunch.

    But in all seriousness, I need the time to be able to be a town leader and you're doing a good job of it meanwhile.

    ---------- Post automerged at 09:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:40 PM ----------

    Besides this back-and-forth is great! Totally boosting both our post counts!

    While I disagree that I'm not being reasonably transparent, I promise that I know what I'm doing and it's worth the long-game

    Ugh I wish I wasn't at the theater phone posting between scenes or I'd dig up a feisty meme for you.

    Lol if Sloth is town Newcomb really stuck his neck out there. But the bw thats happening rn is making me think that lynching Sloth isn't going to achieve the purpose if lynching on D1 in the first place which fonti discussed earlier.

    Hence...

    Unvote

    I'm gonna think about this a lil more slash wait for Sloth to defend himself(hopefully after Eido pokes) before I make my final decision before the deadline.

    Who do you want to lynch if Sloth was off the table?

    0% chance we're no lynching btw. Even if we lynch town that's 1493929% better than no lunching.

    Read the previous mini (MM6) for a pretty good example of why.

    Ok granted my brain is a little cross-wired right now, but I went through Sloth's posts and got literally nothing out of it

    ---------- Post automerged at 10:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:12 PM ----------

    Like maaaaybe un-aligned softly with Fontisian because of the way he's approached her this game. I want to say if he shared a scum-chat with her he'd act differently. He's getting his *It's been a long time/I missed this* vibes all out in the thread and if he shared a scum-chat I'd expect way less of it in thread if any due to them being in scum-chat (yes I know I repeated myself sorry)

    Hey, guess who just got home from a 12 hour shift~

    It's me.

    Please send help.

    Newcomb: I actually the Sloth post you were quoting was from a town game and you were trying to highlight the differences for a while. Like, check out that false conviction he was hiding behind in that game. It's nothing like what he's done here. tl:dr Not seeing what you're seeing and I'm not sure why I'm bothering when he's at the bottom of my town list anyway.

    Re Citrus: I think he figured it out a while ago, so I might as well explain. I didn't like a lot of little things Citrus did early on (the bulletproof claim, while wifomy, is more favorable to mafia!Citrus than his other usual plays, the freaking out over typos in lieu of interacting with people in rvs, the repeated shit questions to demonturtle, the lack of reads when I was already getting them).

    So, I decided to call Citrus. Not because he was, though he was leaning that way, but because two games ago, he was town, I was mafia, I called him fake, and he flipped the fuck out about how I've never gotten that wrong before. If he was town, I expected some sort of reaction. Instead, I got some sort of bullshit about a trap card and no follow up. While, I sympathize with the idea that the game has been slow whenever he's tried to interact (because, damn, have I been bored) it doesn't explain his reaction.

    So, yeah. Talk, my Citrine friend.

    Outside of that, I think the case against Von is obvious (so if someone doesn't get it, please poke me out) and I have no idea how to answer Acio's question beyond saying that Titus is a little loony.

    Who's plausibly scum with Snowvon if both Sloth and Citrus are town?

    Like. Snow/Cobalt/Kai or something stupid like that?
