I'm hoping people will get over this gimmick stuff soon. I thought it might be easier to interact with if I was participating. I was wrong. I have a strong town read on Verizon for reasons I'm not willing to share, and I'm voting for a wolf. When people get serious (and no, talking about how players are avoiding acquisition through cheese instead of through maintaining a strong presence and being a distinct person instead of "LOL does anyone else I'm a CEO??!!!?!?!" doesn't count.), you'll see more involvement from your friendly neighborhood Amazonian.

I don't know what to tell you, it was a shitvote.

Look at the reasoning behind it. It was fun to type, and that's really it.

If you don't like McDonalds for that post, that's cool, but that's not really what I was doing with that vote.

I agree that it looks fun to type though.

Also, Shell played off the other thing well.

Re: TWG CLXVIII: Capitalism [Game Thread]

that's in addition to the obsession over people talking about the number of mafia in the game, as well as misattributing the insight into ibm's posting style to apple instead of me when apple straight up voted for ibm over it

Oh, here it is.

I offered some different insight.

No, any encouragement just tends to make it worse.

You're still voting Facebook, I think? Mind expanding on why they're a wolf?

Idk, could just be a shitvote. Whatever your reasoning, be sure to share it with all your friends, and like their posts!

Sure. Their first post had wolfy punctuation and a random vote which has been followed up by being around the thread for more than 24 hours now with no content even remotely game related. Going from RVS mentality to "this doesn't interest me as a game" is a kind of disconnect you find in wolves almost exclusively.

Yo hold up forgive me but I'mma try to walk the line on the fundamental rule of the game

Nah, fuck off. I don't care who you think you're baiting or, even worse, acting so condescendingly toward. I'm not interested

You're reading heavily into that first post, and a lack of game-related content is true of several right now. Are you seeing disinterest in what Facebook chooses to engage with, perhaps? Talking about shitvotes is somewhat of a game related comment.

Describing them as coming in hot isn't quite fair, but the difference between their start and the next IRL day+ is night and day. They didn't "talk about shitvotes", they just used the term. There isn't a single piece of consideration or thought coming through. I don't know how you could represent it as otherwise.

Your first reply to me was hands-off and friendly and pockety in a way I was only okay with because it was a nice change of pace. I can assure you that continuing to try to brush away my opinion with reasoning as entirely superficial as "but he said shitvote" will not benefit your team, and odds are it won't benefit mine, either.
