You said you could see the Elim doc quite vividly, I’m joking that perhaps because you are in said Elim doc. So far I don’t think so though

Ah I see, I thought you were taking about the first bit, that makes more sense

Other than Mistfallen Soldier? Mild gut e-read on Honors Ghost. Don't really have any solid village reads so far. 

@Akimikoisthecutest, it's totally okay that some players are taking it easy in C1, it's not really evil behavior. However, I will concede that deflecting from suspicion is evil, but I don't really get the feeling that this is what TOW is doing here. 

@ThatOneWorldhopper, I think initially Akimiko just wanted to know what you thought of Jo's suspicion on you, and not expecting you to do analysis posts. 

 

Alright

Yes, I'm aggressive. Because someone has to be. If we all sit around being whimsical and not stressing, the Regals will walk all over us. I'd rather be a loud Townie than a silent Regal hiding in the background.

Fair

[Qianweilian He/him]

I think akimiko is overcompensating. You're being very aggressive in ways that don't really make sense for how little evidence we have.

having read thru some more of the thread:

 

jo seems more villa than not, & i think i will also just v read TJ for the fun of it (but in all transparency im nodding along to his thoughts on mistfallen soldier so that's a good sign)

to expand on this, Mistfallen's posts this game remind me of how they were posting as e in the last MR - like the focus on mech d1 and being a tad overzealous with read lists (not that either of these things are objectively bad; they just remind me of their e game). i quickly read through some of indigo weasel's posts from the AG and their D1 posts seem a lot more nuanced to me

 

Mistfallen Soldier to put my money where my mouth is 

[Myst He/Him]

I am slightly worried that after the WorldHopper started getting votes, Akimiko started getting votes mostly out of nowhere, and I don’t like that. Seems very much like a counter train.

However, I’m inclined to believe Drakes logic for how many Elims there are, and so at least some of these rapid votes on Akimiko must be village 

Also, it seems we’re going to have a three-way tie, between me, Akimiko, and WorldHopper.

Edit: @ThatOneWorldhopper originally you voted me as a joke, I believe, do you have reasoning now for keeping it there?

Look at this mess. I think we have a three-way tie because people are voting for me based on tone while TOW and Mistfallen sit at 3 votes for actual gameplay reasons. I'm not entirely sure, could we get a VC

TUM, Mippo, Qian: You have successfully stalled the day. By splitting the vote to 'tone-police' me, you’ve made it almost impossible for the Town to reach a consensus on a real suspect. I am staying on TOW. If you want to lynch me for being too aggressive, then own the fact that you’re letting the Regals win.

I do think you are over-reacting, this is d1, we can still win even if we accidentally exe a Villager. We can’t expect to get what happened in the AN game every time.

Thats said, we should still be trying to figure out who the Elims are. And I’d like to wait for WorldHopper to respond to me to decide if I’m going to keep my vote on him

What exactly is the complaint against TOW except just being a little less serious and arriving late? Or is that the extent of it?

@Akimikoisthecutest, you're not arguing that you're not a Regal, you keep talking about "tone-polic[ing]" and how this somehow “let the  Regals win." People are voting for you based on "actual gameplay reasons," it's not because your aggression is seen as bad, it's because it's seen as suspect. In mafia, often a mafioso will be overly enthusiastic about accusing others and splitting hairs about why they are a villager. It seems like you're trying to deflect attention by appearing to be a good teammate, but also shutting down anyone who expresses suspicion about you.

a. People can be suspicious of aggressive gameplays, and that is valid on their part. They are not voting on your purely on tone, they don't think it makes sense for the tone to be matched with this state of the game. 
b. The day has not stalled in any sense of the word. 
c. Having a consensus is not necessarily is a good thing. Runaway trains are a lot harder to analyse/easier for elims to hide in than  a more distributed vote spread.

May I ask where was this in the AG? Quartz Zebra definitely felt different. Any reason why the AG might have been different?

Like, what is this? This doesn't feel like how Akimiko was in previous games, furthermore, it's overdramatic and misrepresentative of my reasons. 

Might be confbias tunneling, but the feels like an elim digging a deeper and deeper hole with the Mist voters potentially being teammates trying to save Akimiko (more likely confbiasing on the second than the first imo)

I was doing it for a tie, and am currently thinking I should switch my vote, but I want to hear stuff from him first. If he doesn’t respond before reset, I’ll probably go back to making a tie.

But overall, I’m pretty sure that was the extent, and then Akimiko got involved, and I’m still going over what Akimiko said to figure out what I think of it

[Honors Spectral Image She/her]

I can’t tell if Aki is rping, if so then it’s not rly sus just a character but if she’s not idk…

That was my first guess too, but, one, this is the time to break character or hint while within character (straight up no reason to not do the latter), and also the character doesn't seem like the one the signup describes

Why do you think she’s RPing? She’s not using any of the usual signs, no italics, not mentioning her singers name nor others. Perhaps this just isn’t what I associate with Rp, but why do you think it might be?

[Qianweilian He/him]

Also, I have a question for @Akimikoisthecutest. Why is it so critical that we reach a consensus on day 1? Yes, obviously it is desirable if we find a real suspect, but it's not the end of the world like you're painting it as. Why are you so desperate to eliminate someone right now?

[Akimikoisthecutest]

I hear the feedback from TJ, Quian, and TUM. My attempt at a more aggressive playstyle clearly isn't meshing with the room and is causing more distraction than help. I’m going to take a breather and move into a more passive 'Listening' role for the rest of the day. My vote stays on TOW for the reasons I already gave, but I'll let the rest of you lead the direction from here.

I’m sorry, What??!

you do an aggressive playstyle, and as soon as people start asking why and questioning your reason you decide to be more passive?

I was originally waiting to hear from WorldHopper, but Akimiko I don’t see why you would do this, you’re basically doing the exact thing you got mad at TUM and the others for.
