    So Jari .. what was the purpose?

    That post would have been a good introduction to witchhunting as first post, but somewhere in the middle?

    Typos are just a way to give a text some character.

    I felt like it, and Atum is grading it in return for reads.

    But really, Atum's Hypie entry just made me want to contribute to a fun thread.

    So do you have a better strategy then Jan Senpai? Or is Newcomb worth fighting for?

    [applies peer pressure]

    Why did you skip over Proverbs 21:27? "The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination; How much more when he brings it with wicked intent!"

    I guess you could argue that no one would want to be called an abomination. But if we were playing Darkest Dungeon abomination could be considered a good thing.

    Thanks Waco, I made it several years ago. It's part of bigger design.

    It feels like you are jumping back and forth with your quotes, but I am not actually sure if that is the case.

    What are you up to right now? Any plans?


    I talked more than enough about mechanics for now. Just look for my posts on the matter.

    Newcomb, if town is basically worth his weight in gold. But I have close to no clue about his alignment so far.

    What about Elsa do you like?

    Do you tend to be cold? isolated? alone? carrying worries on yourself until you burst free?

    Is that thing called playing the game?

    If the answer is yes then this is a first for my eyes!

    Why didn't you ask if he is used to getting chased by humans because he knows magic?

    Wow. Not at all what I was expecting but hey, it was insightful. I dinged you a couple points for grammatical errors I didn't bother keep track of, but at the end of the day you still wind up with the following.

    Spunk: A+
    Execution: A
    Effort: Outstanding

    So yeah you got me and now I gotta give out some reads as per our agreement.

    --------------

    So, I've like Rubicon's early, but light focus on Delphine and her tricks because while it was an easy attack, it matched the lighthearted tone he's opened with so points for consistency. He's also been hella active as compared to his usual contributions as far as I remember and to me it reads as a towny enthusiasm. Plus, we're on about the same wavelength for a couple different things in the gamestate (regfan, fonti on miner, fonti paranoia in general, sarcasm etc). I feel pretty good about him so far.

    I'll be real with you and say that I don't usually read Jan well and it always takes me a minute. Oftentimes I do not understand how what he's saying could come from the mindset of either alignment, such as:

    "No worries .. I have to leave in 3 hours and have to do a bit of work before that.

    I might try to spam a bit with Regfan Delphine and Kai when I get home!"

    and

    "While I appreciate the attempt to distance, you are barking up the wrong tree."

    He's just strange. I tend to read a lot of his posts as being filled with unnecessary wine that makes his alignment uncertain, which again doesn't make sense outside of a few scenarios/approaches I'll keep to myself for now. But! I like his pressure on reg, and I don't think it's distancing at this point unless he also thinks reg is lynch immune. So their interactions have made me feel better about him in a team hunting sense, but in a vacuum I still think he's a little off. We'll see.

    Is that a problem oh wise one?

    I plan to have more fun this game. Playing with my kickball team has taught be about letting go or stop being so competitive all the time, as the stress wears me down or causes me to burnout. Yes, I want to win. But I want to be less stressed too.

    So that's the main plan at the moment, I'll be get reads in my usual way, which is good.


    Yay, something to look forward to reading.

    Gold you say? [insert greedy expression thinking about all the glories of being rich]

    Probably? You'll have to be a little more specific. I am using every bit of my sleuthing skill to contribute to the merciless eradication of the heathen practioners of Witchcraft and Sorcery if that's what you meant.

    And screw you Jan, I play hard almost every time I come out to play. No one likes a bully dude.

    No worries, son. Pretty sure you are so thin, you would float on water.

    There are literal tears pouring from my eyeholes. I haven't been this happy in minutes.
