Can you also explain why that’s a problem?

The game has only just begun… I’m not going to make hard reads on everyone who has posted. Truthfully, I don’t even have that many. I also think Atlas is towny, and I believe that Luna’s townread on him sounded towny. I think you’ve said some questionable things and that you’ve given equally questionable assessments, which is why I’m questioning you right now.

Wouldn’t that make them town? Or am I not understanding you correctly?

This also sounds like you are talking about someone who is town for their actions, yet you don’t say that Atlas is town. Could it be that you already know that, yet you didn’t explicitly say that?

This looks like you are trying to prevent the townread from taking root…

And this part looks like you are trying to portray yourself as hyped.

As a side note, this is towny. No frills, no attempt to sell those reads for more than they are.

I’m not sure why you would say the things you have said about Atlas without having actually read what he was saying before…

Yet you apparently didn’t understand some of what he was saying? Why would you say that if you don’t actually know what he’s saying?

VOTE: Estelle

Not to mention the fact I think you’re voting a competitor.

Oh dear… looks like I am going to get spotlight after all. But I’d rather not be considered a saboteur or dissenter for avoiding it.

I will concur that X’s statement reads more like a legitimate competitor.

This is ironic because I was talking about Luna not atlas, lmao.

Oh.

I’m sorry for misunderstanding you.

UNVOTE

This is what I get.

VOTE: Drekar

I think Era’s response is enough to consider them legitimate for now.

VOTE: Ai.Mi

Both Drek’ar and myself noted the oddity about her, and I will consider it enough to pursue. I am avoiding commenting yet on Estelle/Luna specifically as I have thoughts but believe it will be better to organically play out before I make my move.

I didn’t remember the exact reason when writing those thoughts, because I didn’t write it exactly after reading it. It was the general thoughts of what I remembered when reading it. And “sounding cautious” sounds good but I have no idea what that even means, it “sounds good”, but that’s just it

I’m in lab so reliesbe spordiac

Did you not notice I was mistaken in my questioning, or did you not talk about that on purpose?

EraDeadge

Ok, read through and have a summary of some thoughts/questions.

I do agree somewhat with Atlas’s take that Era was a bit defensive hence reactionary in terms of responding to posts of others when being discussed about, but it’s not inherently wolfy to me.

Twofold, I actually townread Atlas for being high engaging so far and attempting to interact with players so far in a “calmly” manner as he states and like what Luna was saying. Additionally, even though I disagree’d with his scum read on Era, I think it comes from a townie mindset when evaluating the reactionness. The other thing I like is how Atlas was really the first person to come in with a read and more importantly a scum read. As Dre’kar/Era said, sabatours are more likely to come in with pressure to townread someone originally and I think Atlas coming in attempting to get things going with a sr and getting others to chime in is townie.

Also, I was a bit confused why @Drekar scum reads Luna? I saw Estelle discuss how they also agree with Drekar’s scum read on Luna but I didn’t see them really saying way.

I think X town reading the high posters plus me based on vibe at the time was a bit underwhelming and seems like one a sabatour could easily make. Seemed like a read to go with the flow, but I will await reasoning and explanations.

I did feel like Estelle’s thoughts Drekar’s reaction towards them in thread and on Atlas’s roleplay potentially helping them get more engaged within the thread feels more like just thoughts to say without actually giving any reads/significance behind them which is slightly scummy.

I also didn’t like Dre’kar’s accusation against Atlas and the claim of “stilted” just didn’t sit right with me, but I feel like besides that, Dre’kar has been ok, though I don’t understand their push on Luna.

She is null to me for now. I don’t feel like her head is quite in the game yet.

VOTE: Estelle

See my above statement. I am/was specifically avoiding making opinions on that as I believe the waters there will move in ways to give me more data on it.

And I don’t have a strong reason to agree with any of the suspicions planted.

Also @Atlas_OS, in general, how would you want to effectively moderate and go about communicating within the thread in a “calmly manner” to effectively get reads and progress the game?

Interesting… I had a different thought from my paragraph.

From the short sentence, what gives you the impression it’s more of a “legitimate competitor”?

Noted.

(If I’m honest, the calm manner thing was mostly just to emphasise Atlas’ RP persona as a calculating figure who prefers action/process to emotion.)

Best process has already started to form. Sharing and discussion assist the League in isolating those attempting to disrupt play.

Despite your initial over-excitement, you have also participated, thank you.

So what is your current read on Era? If you had to give a GTD? You said keep an eye on them, but I want you to take a bit more of a definitive stance.

It feels a bit muddy in the waters on looking at both sides and just ending with a “we will see”

Their tone in posts 18, 30, 35 give me a vibe that they’re trying to engage players in a way to provoke discussion without it being contrived. There’s no throwaway read(s) one way or another, I sense some hunger to get things going, just feels pure to me rn

I’m not sure why you think I’d feel pressured to throw out a town read at SOD when it was mostly emotes being posted. It seems like a generic read that sounds good on the surface but is kinda lazy and not really considering the context of the game

eating helps with that XD

I’d like to discuss Dre’kar, Era, Estelle, and Luna with you. Also my X question to you.

I know you were roleplaying with Luna initially, but what is ur actual read on them so far?

What do you think of Dre’kar’s read on Luna (and to be frank, I didn’t really see why they were pushing on them).
