So, stuff about Cron.
After a fairly typical opening post, his first thing is a reaction to the lyle thing. I've already said I think there was overreaction here, to the point of distraction. Crons response is particularly bizarre. First he tries to play down the towniness of lyle's post, and then in his very next post he gives lyle a D1 pass. Sure, lyle is new, free d1 passes are fine. But it's just a super strange reason that Cron gives, after at first trying to throw shade? Nyeh. I don't like it.
Then nothing for a while. Then this:
I like silverspawn. I understand, from his experience, why he thinks my derp clear read is bad. I can understand his logical flow on why he thinks my mafia, just wrong conclusion.
vote: Faust
I think he's posting for appearances. The whole pressure new players and going against the grain on the derp clear, feels for show and not genuine. I don't see any real game solving, just open questions and posts. I read his posts as trying to seem town and not trying to solve
It turns out that my points about Cron that I actually made yesterday consisted of mentioning this post and saying I had a general bad vibe. Well this is still a really bad post.
The first half is classic "look how reasonable I'm being I totally see why you might think I'm scum" and the second half is tearing into faust for no good reason at all. Faust's analysis and contributions til this point had been solid stuff as usual and this whole thing rings false from Cron.
A bit of fluff then, pushing other people for content, sure no problem. He townreads fonti, fine whatever, and then gives Jan a minor scumread which he immediately revokes when Jan responds. It's classic partner interaction:
Also jan talking about the game flavor early and bolting is how I remember him playing in WWF flavor game a while back. I'm watching you, jan.
*Jan response*
I know nothing of Heroes except new Spock and Jess from gilmore girls are in it. And I do remember you gave out true flavor clues as mafia. And you liking both subjects makes sense. Aight. Back to null.
And i can make weird ass plays as town.
Then he votes me for lurking. Sure. I guess that's fine. It's a weird feeling for me when im being super lurky like this. Being in another country is a decent excuse I hope. And on D1 pushing for lurker lynches is probably fine.
He also starts pushing against the Jan lynch at the point. Just subtly and (significantly) not for content-related reasons. Great way to look less bad later on.
His Seprix vote is absolutely awful, giving no reasons for a vote on a towny player.
For a while then he's mostly just pushing against discussion of roles. OK I give him town points for this, he does seem fairly genuinely frustrated.
He then lurks for literally the entire rest of the day while the Jan wagon goes down. I mean seriously. No posts at all for fricking ages. Where he gets off accusing me of lurking I don't know.
Nothing much to say about D2. His first post is decent except he keeps pushing Seprix on the back of nothing.
And his push on me feels like an opportunistic attack on an absent player. But it's bound to feel that way to me.
From his D1 play plus off-wagonness, I like my vote where it is.
