So asdioh i'm going to -try- to do some of the information you asked me, and add my own little segments here and there.
My read on Evil Soup - Evil Soup seems okay to me, all bias about previous matches aside (and DH being a **** post game of DKR) they have solid views on things, and by 'things' I mean their views on what to look for in gameplay is town. The only thing i have a problem with is when he voted you (asdioh) for a pretty dumb reason; to say that someone shouldn't be getting further clarification on anything seems dumb to me, but he's already gone and off that vote. I guess he was just doping it for pressure purposes.
Asdioh you're doing a lot of legwork, but I don't see much when it comes from what all of this information is actually giving you. Care to (because i'm too lazy to re-check) tell me your stances at this moment.
Smarg wagon is silly after she got angry. I'm too lazy to re-check, but can anyone tell me if someone ignored or disregarded the fact that smargaret was legitimately upset (save Ryker)? I have my reasons for knowing this that I will explain once I get an answer.
Gheb's aight, the fact he told smarg that she could deliberately ignore Ryker seems fishy, but I guess it's warranted? :/
Ryker's an ***, I don't see what the reads are getting him though. I also agree that I probably won't be able to fully read into this game as he said before (I skimmed a bunch). I will probably have to constantly ask questions to get up to snuff for toDay.
I missed J, but that's because he wrote a bunch of walls and I'd rather have condensed versions than having to read that piss yellow garbage.
Reads on the rest will come along as I slowly but surely read more stuff.
Although I disagree on your read on Evil Soup, the other points you brought up are legit for catching up. What are your thoughts on the various wagons that formed throughout the Day? (Smarg, Asdioh, J, and Smarg again but you already addressed the last one)
When Smarg was upset I know I didn't really respond, partly because I didn't think she was legitimately going to replace out (Evil Soup threatened to but didn't), and partly because after our pre-game mushroom talk snafu where I made her angry without meaning to, I wasn't sure how to deal with an angry Smarg without making her more angry. I don't know if anyone else was online and didn't respond to Smarg getting upset tbh.
Gheb - Just a towny not smart person at the moment. Maybe he'll realize something soon enough...? The only one I'm alright with being here cuz I think he is trying something.
ES - His hop on my wagon was primarily OMGUS and then followed with some AtE regarding that he is so mad at me for a particular reason that I am getting away with something....? What am I getting away with again? Also he hasn't fully said I am scum but jumped on because he saw he had support with Gheb who is a big mouth piece when he wants something.
Tery - lol? He just said I'm gonna vote J and just did. No reason, he just did it just cuz. I honestly don't what to say to this vote.
Glyph - I actually wanna take a look at his post.
Why are his scum-reads J and ES? Why can they die? Why did he just pick the two bandwagons at the time and only call them scum? He says he alright with both dieing for whatever reason.
His "probably" town reads are Smarg(Zen) and AM but doesn't say why and says they cannot die. Also this is the same page the Smarg vs. AM battle happened so it seems like he isn't trying to pick sides with the feuding two and it just seems so damn convienient that those are his reads.
His reads seem like BS to me.
The bolded part is just "....." cuz I have no idea what he is talking about but sounds kinky. o_O
JTB - This is probably the person I have the biggest problem with on the wagon. His points are just utter garbage. ^^
1.) he give no other reads besides hop on the major wagon, why?
2.) Apparantly people can't have a change of heart. Why not, lol? That point is just silly and seems to be trying to grab a reason he thinks is good enough to hop onto my wagon. He probably saw other people like Joey complain about my 180.
3.) Second point is just *facepalm*. I mean really? You wanna lynch me because I type paragraphs to respond to things? How in the hell is that a scum thing? Did you know I write a lot because I actually like to write/type? Also in this paragraph he says that he finally got what I was saying about Asdioh when I made a compact list for him to read. Skimming? I think so. Another point is Asdioh responded to each point already so I wonder what he thinks of said case now?
4.) So you have to claim at L-1? I also could not have any other reason to claim when I did? No reason at all? Alright genius. =P
5.) It's bad to have cleared townies? Wow that just sounds silly.
6.) Point number 4 is extremely funny.
7.) How in the world is it OP? Did you know there is a doc role like this?
As for the J wagon:
Gheb started the wagon after throwing doubt on J's actions the Day before, although he did so for vague reasons. Which is what made it really funny when people started coming out of the woodwork saying they suspected J all along.
T-Block was on the wagon, but he was the only one who actually hinted at the fact that he was suspicious of J before the wagon started, seems like a legit read and fits in with his play so far.
Then it gets scummy.
Evil Soup gives about as little explanation as he did for hopping on Asdioh, and his play overall has just followed the waves of where town opinion is heading. Actually, I really can't remember Evil Soup's stances on anyone other than who was the main target at the time, and that I really dislike because they have been giving information only when necessary to support their lynch target. That also means very clear lack of scumhunting.
Tery didn't really explain his vote but he has been very straightforward about not being able to read much because of wisdom teeth. Considering the rest of his play has been alright, I don't find him suspicious from this.
Glyph's vote is also extremely sudden, but the points J makes about his reads are interesting. Like Evil Soup, he is really only addressing players who are in the hotseat at the time. And we need to hear more from Glyph, but his involvement in this wagon makes him lean scummy.
I don't agree that JTB is the biggest issue on this wagon though. Even if some of his points are misguided, he
at least presented ideas and has been debating them which makes me think his intentions are legit even if some of his points (like post length issues) are not. Null leaning town on JTB right now.
@JTB: I'm glad you're here posting, but you're not making much sense atm.
If J's claim is to be believed, he dies if he targets scum, but lives if he targets town. While there is a lot to be said for dying to reveal scum, I don't think it was a terrible decision to aim to clear town instead. His early claim also aligns with this, since town needs to know why if he dies in the middle of the day. I don't see how this role could be considered OP either.
I'll ask you the same question I asked Gheb. If J were to flip town, would you be okay with a scum spotlight being shone on you?
@J: Did you say your power is one-shot, or am I making that up?
I agree that J's claimed role doesn't seem OP; my concern is that his role claim is rather convenient and impossible to prove unless J dies or unless AM dies
and flips scum. Without J's clear, AM still seems town and not a good lynch for toDay. Before this claim I had a very town read on J but the claim is just so sketchy and I am struggling with that now. Looking at actions and disregarding the claim, I honestly believe Evil Soup is scummier than J, and that's the direction I am leaning in for toDay.
Yo. J who should I be voting? JTB? ok
Unvote; vote: JTB
Will read up later.
J is 100% town. As mentioned in 589.
That yellow looks really good.
@Zen, your posts have just been immensely strange since you came into the game. You've also addressed mostly J since replacing in.
You say that J is 100% town. If you are joking there, then what is your read on J and his claim? If not, then can you explain why once you catch up on the thread?
@J: You have said you are really good at reading Zen (I think here but if not then I deff remember that from Rusty). Can you have a solid read on Zen for us by the end of Day 1?
