Fun fact: on this day 6 years ago, Zenges asked me to marry him.

oh no i don't remember the date when my husband proposed. i might be a bad wife. all i remember is that he did it at the wrong place very spontaneously (office christmas party) because he really wanted to give me the ring we picked out together, so i made him go back and do it again at the park where we had our first kiss.

I only remembered because Zenges sent me a screenshot of Facebook's "On This Day..." memory thing
 
From most town to least town:
beans
Genny
Lissa
samac
vampy
mkg
zenge
dubz
sakuraaa
clem
greedy

If I am still alive after tonight then I will update this with more brain cells...wanted to get a rough read out there just in case I die. And unfortunately the tomorrow morning general pathology exam has used up all of my current brain power
 
At the bottom of almost every reads list despite being basically right at one point about every flip that has happened and showing consistent reasoning behind everything, only misstep being the turn on mads that was uncontested and generally a shared read.

Whatever, yall do not want to win and do not want to find me as town so on your heads be it.

@samac might want to put me at the bottom of your POE now, this seems pretty towny
 
Like if I am a wolf here im just wantonly townreading all the obv town, fight for 2 townies tooth and nail day 1, trying multiple times to pivot onto my teammate EOD and spewing out my thought process behind almost everything unasked.
 
@samac Idk my POE is like beans/vampy at this point before I start crashing out over looking for more converts or 3p. I've got either mechanical or social village points for everyone else that would make it difficult for me to vote for them.

I mean being on the other side of his push and voting me and voting with PSV to pushing PSV after she was caught does not strike me as consistently good reads and pushing outside the consensus

I pushed PSV at EOD 1 and was trying to wrangle other votes. I wagoned you because you were in my POE, got off the wagon by EOD when you read better and have been consistently townreading you since, especially since the PSV flip.

i think sdners tend to lean pretty hard on meta reads, and new players (especially those that seem skilled) get a lot more skepticism until we've seen you wolf.

If I’m alive I will re-read you and consider it.
Honestly everyone seems towny to me tbh
 
I agree that townreads in this game are a lot easier to find than scumreads. Vampy, Clem and WZ are purely POE for me really, like you've said everyone else has towned it up, but I think i have too in a findable way.
 
at this point i hope i die tonight, please put me out of my misery.

Town(and leaning):
fruitsalad ✅
samac
vampy (co-mayor) ✅
KJQ ✅
beans
mads ✅
mkg (co-mayor)

Neutral(most to least town):
genny
clem
lissa
dubz
zenge

Scum(and leaning):
greedy?
sakuraaa
PSV ✅

It doesn't help that the one scum we've caught was a convert and we don't actually know when she was converted. N0 makes the most sense to me but there's a universe where it actually did happen n1
 
EOD 1 was dictated that I could not lim a specific subset of players for arbitrary reasons. Therefore with the (CORRECT) townreads I had my POE had to be PSV, Samac, WZ and you are skilled players who I could not at the time differentiate between. Even then PSV was the first one I tried to wagon on page 25 when I got home that day. But EOD1 for me was more about trying to save fruit and mads than it was about honing in on a target which is why between 25-30 I was on a leading wagon on all three of you at some point
 
There is a universe where PSV was converted n1 but I am probably still gonna try and solve for n0 mostly I think.

And i'd rather hit a convert than an OG because hunting for converts when you've flipped an OG and there might not be another is a nightmare.

You are in very early defense. It’s not the day. Instead of reasons it’s not you - can you work towards finding who it is?

I can do both. Tut tutting me for aggressively pushing back against scum reads with townie fury seems like a bit like the pot calling the kettle black right, cause its a big part of your game too

Ah, yes let us now turn our full and undivided intellectual attention to the curious phenomenon of Samac posting a bunch of N’s. At first glance, this event may appear trivial, perhaps even nonsensical a posting repetition, a droning chant, an echoing refrain of the letter N, drawn out into a sequence of linguistic inertia. But it would be gravely mistaken, dear reader, to dismiss this as mere babble without meaning. No, indeed it is precisely in the excessive repetition, the elongated and deliberate enunciation of the letter “N,” that we must root our inquiry. For in this profoundly recursive posting, we are beckoned to a more nuanced, even labyrinthine examination of language, symbol, intent, and dare we say existential resonance.

Consider first the phonetic characteristics of the letter “N”: a voiced alveolar nasal consonant, positioned elegantly along the continuum of linguistic articulation. It is not a plosive, nor a fricative; it is, rather, a humming presence, a nasal murmur that slips past the palate and rests delicately in the sinuses, vibrating faintly like the whisper of ancient knowledge or, depending on your interpretive bent, like the idle hum of an overworked refrigerator. When Samac engages in this sequence “NnnNnNNnNnnnnNNNnnnnnn”
and so forth we must ask not what is being said, but how the posting itself disrupts, reforms, or defers the very notion of speech.

Let us, then, not underestimate the performative nature of this post. In a world overrun with over communication where language is currency, opinion is cheapened into tweets, and meaning is lost amid the cacophony of unfiltered expression Samac’s litany of “N”s may, in fact, be a postmodern resistance to the tyranny of clarity. What does it mean to post “N”? And not just once, but in an unyielding succession? Is it negation? A rejection of affirmation? Or perhaps a syllabic scream, frozen at the edge of articulation, caught eternally before it tips into an actual word?

And what of the metaphysics of such an act? If a person says “Nnnnnnnnnn” alone in a forest, does it carry a meaning beyond the momentary vibration of air molecules? Or is its significance found precisely in its resistance to codification, to the semiotic chains that normally bind utterance to signification? Could we, perhaps, argue that Samac, in posting this sequence of “N”s, is not simply saying nothing, but is, in fact, saying Nothing with a capital “N” as a radical ontological assertion? The Nothing that hovers at the periphery of Being; the Nothing that Heidegger spoke of, or at least gestured toward, with that customary Teutonic sigh.

Yet let us not drift too far into the fog of philosophical abstraction without anchoring ourselves, however loosely, in the lived texture of the moment. For Samac’s act is not just linguistic, nor merely phonetic, nor even purely metaphysical it is also, inevitably, performative. There is clacking of the keyboard involved. There is posture. There is audience, perhaps. Or perhaps not. The very possibility of an audience transforms the post. Was it meant to provoke? To soothe? To parody communication? Or was it merely the spontaneous spasm of letters a kind of typographical shrug?

At this juncture, it becomes imperative to acknowledge what has been subtly obvious all along: that to analyze Samac’s “N”s at length is to engage in a process of deferral, of interpretive circumambulation, wherein each layer of meaning once peeled reveals not a core of truth but yet another layer, ad infinitum. We are not approaching a central thesis; we are orbiting a void, a hollow center around which language itself shuffles awkwardly, like a guest at a party who realizes they don’t know the host. To speak at length about Samac’s “N”s is to play a game of rhetorical brinkmanship: to maintain the illusion of analytical depth while deftly avoiding any definitive assertion.

In conclusion and here, the word “conclusion” must be taken with the widest possible latitude we must confess that what Samac has posted, and what we have now examined in agonizing and extravagant detail, amounts to precisely the thing which it most resists: content. And yet, paradoxically, it is in this very lack that it achieves its curious resonance. For in saying nothing, Samac has invited us to witness everything. Or nothing. Or something in between. It is a masterstroke of ambiguity, a written shrug dressed in the garments of profundity.

NnnNnNNnNnnnnNNNnnnnnn.
