The complication isn't what's making me feel undecided - it feels like there's an unquestioned V implication behind that line of thought where I'm concerned and I'm not really sure that's something one takes for granted or writes that vote off with that early into the game. Hence my questioning if this deserves a 0.5 as a net result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I often like to pile votes on one player early D1 cuz it's a good way to assess partnerships, i.e. if more people jump on easily it generally indicates the CWs need to be looked at closer. Early D1 wagons are easy to pile on because you are not expected to provide reasoning. edit: 3 minutes ago, Kasimir said: there's an unquestioned V implication behind that line of thought where I'm concerned FWIW I'm village reading you atm Edited March 27, 2023 by _Stick_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kasimir he/him Posted March 27, 2023 Report Share Posted March 27, 2023 (edited) Sigh. 0.5 to Xino. I do like his ease in the thread; I think it's a good look. But I don't feel very strongly about this one, because I am not really sure this is a substitute for actual thread contribution. Bracketed with the knowledge we're maybe three hours tops into the cycle so I don't think it matters significantly at this juncture. FWIW guys don't take my talk of decimals and how many Digimon I'm issuing as anything other than a rough indicator of where I am. It'll be clearer if I do tiered readslist but IDK if I'm in the mood for that this game. I'm midway through a Digimon S1 marathon right now and doing an aquatic-themed Digimon reacts/reads to the thread feels like a low-effort and fun way of engaging. So don't add and subtract every image, I'll make the overall calculus clear at some point. 8 minutes ago, _Stick_ said: But is it?

It was just based off a comparison to your usual Village playstyle. I'll also agree the fact I'm conflicted as to what to make of it is probably indicative that I don't think it's necessarily Evil but it did stick out to me Edited to add: @_Stick_ Like, yeah it's from p2, but presumably the fact you okayed it before making the p2 comment since you didn't @ it p1 indicates that you were cool with it before, no? I just feel "this is probably bait" is weird. And am puzzling aloud why it jumps out to me/why I think it's weird. There's something to be said about the confidence that displays, I suppose, since an Elim tends to immediately read this more as a gut sus kind of thing, so on further reflection maybe I should treat this as more V!indicative. ...Yeaaaah let's go with an award of three Shakomons!

Wiz/Xino E/E? Spoiler I say this but I still don't want to move from Ash - it's a very early vote explosion so I'm minded to be wary both of Xino's DGAF stack (we haven't even reached rollovet yet, and this does push me a bit back towards the E!Xino we saw in LG91) and Wiz's bailing. I'm not really seeing V!Ash yet. Agree there are extenuating factors, but Ash is usually readable, and IDK if I'm in a 'vote whoever I don't think is readable later on' mood this game.

Araris Valerian he/him Posted March 27, 2023 Report Share Posted March 27, 2023 Actually, nevermind. There have been a few times where e!me has placed a 3rd vote onto a teammate D1 in order to get a train on them to collapse. xino's vote was a 4th vote, but might have had similar motivations.

Elim me might think elim me would be too comfortable, knowing that my teammates can save me, so I'd try to come up with an excuse for my chill attitude. I don't really agree with this take - my vote was my first vote of the cycle, and as of Stick's post, it was barely three hours after the game started. Still forty-five hours more to go. I don't think an Elim feels like any sort of chill needs to be explained at that point in the cycle, especially when I've never been known to have a stable vote. I...Actually the more I come back to it, the more I am currently inclined to have Stick at 0.5 . Not very confident of this but feels like there's a bit too much perspectival confidence for me to want to E!read this.
