Living, is the short answer.
Too many things have happened since we last saw each other actually, but for the most part I'm good.
Bought a new laptop for Black Friday - that was neat.
My dog was a lion for Halloween.
How's you?
so so, Chad got me addicted to WoW, which will probably be good to stop my spam
KoolKoal: Feel free to take this with a grain of salt since self meta isn't particularly helpful, but I think I get scumread mostly for style over substance, but also for a certain lack of substance over style. It's not so much what I AM posting most of the time (though sometimes that can seem bad) but what I'm NOT posting. I've been told I come to non-obvious conclusions a lot, so when I post, quite a bit of the time there's jumps in logic that people can't follow and they think that's scummy. I get that accusation about a lot of questions I ask specifically. People call them "busy work" when the questions are legit etc.
As far as things to ignore, I can't think of anything. I would suggest you focus less on what I'm doing and more on how I'm doing it. That's probably more likely to be accurate. Like I've just said, what I do tends to come off a little weird, but if you look for how I do it, mindset comes into play and maybe you figure out something useful.

So MUME is Multi-users in Middle Earth. Text based rpg that lets you kill Bill Ferny, chop down Old Man Willow, and explore the Mines of Moria! With none of those distracting, frivolous graphics and sounds to get in the way. And it’s free!

Pretty sure there were more than that but I read most of these posts last night and I'm not going back to page 1 right now lol
Actually I do have a minute...
Tammy, Cuth, ... you?
Not really me, unless you are just referring to me not voting. I was goof balling around. RVS = *****posting phase for me. I don't particularly have an issue with that. I don't have an issue with people messing around, only when it appears no one is trying to actively move forward is when I start go get annoyed.
I just feel sad. MU's style of 36/12 is a little too fast paced for me, but the standard mtgs open is far too slow. Micros when I play were a decently happy medium that veered slightly on the long side for me, but closer to the ideal.
Cuth's only two posts are basically saying "hello". How are you getting a "not going to RVS" vibe from that? o-0
Only thing that pinged me before I went to bed last night was killjoys post about rvs. Something felt off about noticing that a few people hadn’t participated, wondering if people didn’t do it anymore, and then not doing it himself. I tried to reason why that bugged me but every thing I thought of sounded stupid. So maybe it felt cautious in a way that felt odd. IDK. I figured I’d wait to see if anyone else noticed it too and then perhaps I was on to something, but nobody did. Not sure what to make of gentleman johnny’s push there because that should make me feel like I’m on to something but a push for not directing the game in any way on page two feels...well it feels something wrong but I just woke up and words aren’t really working.
As for the recent rvs conversation - Several people didn’t rvs actually. I purposefully did not RVS because y’all don’t know me well enough here. I don’t vote often and I often forget to vote. Usually when I do vote, it’s on someone that I’m fine with being eliminated. Therefore, my RVS vote often sits on the same person for the entirety of the day until I have a scumread I want to actually vote for. Yeah I know your vote is your voice blah blah blah, my voice is my voice my vote is for elimination. Anyway I didn’t want you guys to get confused or think my rvs vote was a real vote days from now. Yes, I know this looks like an over explanation predefense of my non rvs vote, so two scumtells at once even! but my voting practices are always asked about by people who don’t know me, so here you are.

For the record, I got a ping off of that post as well, but it didn't seem significant enough to pursue atm.

There is a difference between not pushing the game forward, and actively trying to not push the game forward. The parts I bolded from KJ's point felt like the latter.
@Vaimes: Wolfy in general. My hiatus has not made me want to meta anymore than it did before I took a break.
Clearly, it's not a role play that I have been doing with my masks since the dawn of time, and the Iso comment was a ***** post
Although the accountant part was genuine.
idk, ***** posts can be extra *****ty, and I usually can get a very good read of you just off your first post
That makes me sadder. It means you lost you ability to read me or you are a wolf. I really hope it's the first.
maybe its still early, I am wondering if you actually believe that read on killjoy though, removing meta reads is kinda weird
I think the other case on Killjoy in regards to him talking about rvs and not joining it, has some more merit, but it's still up in the air
Thar be somethin' amiss here.
Why does GJ hope Wisp be town misreadin' 'im o'er catchin' 'im as mafia?
'n Wisp be natterin' about th' KillJoy cases as if they be part o' somethin' he ain't part o'.

I think something is amiss with you Rhandy boi.
The wisp part is that he apparently brags he can read me correctly in games past when we were both town.
Why aren't you calling him out on him being skeptical of me not metaing in KJ? You both are aware I don't regard meta almost, at all, and you are well aware of that, as is Wisp.
Did you ever put into words what made those two Hohnny posts disingenuous to you?
There isn't much to say, i've play with both town and wolf GJ, and that tone just doesn't feel like its coming from a town, I think it being GJ makes it look even worse
There being a distinct lack of content in the last sixty-whatever posts is fine but half of the players being like "nah I'm just not gonna RVS" is
There's probably a wolf in the players who followed me onto Iso but I'm gonna town lean them all anyway
I had this thought as well, meaning one in {Silver, Rhand, Bur, Crops} - of these Crops seemed the flimsiest with the 'trend' comment.
Like, it's flimsy tho so
What do you mean by ? Is there some significance to RVS for you?
Other than that, no live reads
Random fun fact: Jumped ship on teaching, and am now an accountant. Did this right before Covid so timing couldn't have been better.
The GJ way path to no lynching:

The GJ way path to no lynching:
KJ feels good for me, but ***** posting a bit much for me. Nullish
Give me more. I am grinding out these invoices.
The GJ way path to no lynching:
What do you mean when you say "feels good, but too much *****posting"?
Vote: Tammy
May or may not be serious, you decide.
Mild FoS pointing at GJ; posts feel awkward, but maybe he's just re-gaining his Mafia sea legs.
The GJ way path to no lynching:
Decent sounding tone, but it seems like you aren't even trying to push the game forward, as if you are wanting to stay in RVS.
Not inherently wolfy, but eyebrow raising from my perspective.
The GJ way path to no lynching:
This riddle feels off.
Why ask KJ 'n nah me?
When ye asked earlier it also was aimed general 'n nah at me.
'n wha' has September got t' do wit' pirates?
I haven't seen anything worth pursuing, so I haven't.
Wolfy post, my lord
That makes me sad to hear
The GJ way path to no lynching:
Not a pirate no idea where that came from tbh

I don't think any players were actively not RVSing. apart from Chad and maybe Sloth.

Also slightly town reading this.
But for a dumb reason probably. I was going to suggest someone use a skill to chat with me too. And it just feels genuine
I wanted to make sure you'd feel comfortable with me.
Take the easy pocket as a token of my love.
Bro. We talked about this. You're supposed to out me for town cred on Day 2.

@Vaimes: Wolfy in general. My hiatus has not made me want to meta anymore than it did before I took a break.
The GJ way path to no lynching:
vote: Cantripomancer
I'm not too keen on the way they phrased the tammy vote
@Silver: I'll bite. Why is there a scum voting Iso?
@Vaimes: Hungarian is just a fake Finno-Ugric language anyways, so I don't care
@Cuth: What about Cantrip's vote pinged you?
That makes me sadder. It means you lost you ability to read me or you are a wolf. I really hope it's the first.
The GJ way path to no lynching:
I think the other case on Killjoy in regards to him talking about rvs and not joining it, has some more merit, but it's still up in the air
Also to whoever was saying Welsh or Hungarian or something - see? I'm not the only one that thought pirate.
Thar be somethin' amiss here.

also @rhand
I don't know what you just said
'Cause, followed by your reply/first post and pirate debut. I'm assuming there's an inside-joke I'm not getting, but wanted to pursue just in case.
September 19 is Talk Like A Pirate day.
Like, it's flimsy tho so
What do you mean by
