I am not saying that I sus you, I am just trying to clarify what seems to be the public information we have.

ok so like here's my thing about d0 not counting
i find haku's decision to 1. park his vote "randomly" in a game with no phantom votes, then 2. lie about his availability to change his vote, to be extremely suspicious in isolation
however, this behavior becomes more suspicious, not less, when taken in conjunction with his d0 activity, in which he made a bizarre quasi dumbtell then inexplicably changed his vote at the last second
my question, then, is whether i should disregard my suspicion on the grounds that d0 actively adds to my concerns, even though his activity in this phase alone is vote-worthy in my eyes
if that is the case then i am voting you because, if we are meant to disregard d0 material, then that means you have posted more than anyone else here while saying nothing

I just don't like the xel read from hateandhatred

I see nothing notable from xel that would make me say "yeah, town!"
it's sideline commentary, random setup clarification, and quips

it's not even that shitposty

I believe you have played at least four games with him? That is more than I have played with about half of you, for what it is worth.

Well, I pretty much just woke up then immediately went to thread, so that can contribute to weird posting.

I've played quite a few games with Haku actually, but I feel like people who have played dozens of games with him can actually get a feel for his in-game behavior far more than I can. Also, Haku and I are IRL friends, and this makes it a little harder for me to judge him according to his TWG metagame.

Just the way you have brought it up seems really careful and crafted, which throws me off because you seem like you are naturally more casual than that. It is also not how I remember you approaching things the only time I played with you, though that was years ago.

Overall I do not feel great about the read list either. The main part I liked was that you said Haku's vote on you was decent. XD

Yeah I'm fairly self aware that I might sound a little off, especially in comparison to how I played the game a couple years back. That, plus the fact that Haku knows me very well IRL, him throwing a vote on me just looks good lol

Is the availability lie that he said "See you next phase" and then had a few posts after that like 11 hours later? Because unless I am getting time zones confused, I think that his last time of posting was the time he said at the start it would be:

This is going to happen the entire week.

As I have said, I think that he is behaving erratically because he feels stressed about not having enough information and interactions to work with, and I have a slightly easier time mapping that my past town experiences with him.

The thing he posted today that bothered me most/what I wish I could ask about, was saying specifically "Xel was town" past tense, because the progression there is confusing at best.

I don't really have a better way to restate what I am meaning with bringing up T-Force's posts, so we should probably agree to partially disagree.

Why was there no d1 kill

storn seemed to jump on the bandwagon (that I started) to get haku out really quickly, and then pretty effortlessly changed his vote to someone else later, that's all. obvs not worth a whole lot since he flipped and I think it's a safe assumption to make that we all rolled town at the start.

that being said, I also really like hate's reentry. roundbox is less sussy for me atm, all good posts imo.

what I do not like is star behavior right now. it feels very odd and out of character for her (this has little to do with asking me the question above)

what I mean by this is that my opinion does not come from her asking me the question about storn

I think day 1 was a meme and not real/everyone thought they were "applicants" which I interpreted as being vt although in hindsight haku pointing out the sign up list showed everyone as applicants makes this gimmick kind of obvious

I caught this tense thing too. Perhaps they were referring to Xel's presence on d0 or something? It's as confusing as you put it

I am not comfortable axing star just yet, but I think this reflects well on bug just because they're bringing the gusto, unsafe votes
